For Houston's legion of ethnic-dining connoisseurs, this place is a rare treasure. And for those extremists who seek the edgiest in culinary thrills, it's a dream come true. If Laotian crab sauce and stink beans aren't outrageous enough for you, ask them if they can whip you up some gaeng tai pla.

I dare you.
