Bound by Fate Brewing Taproom

Another post from a place I tried a couple of weeks ago - Haan Lao at Bound by Fate Brewing Company in Schuylerville. What a wonderful treat! We enjoyed trying several plates of this new-to-us food, unlike anything we had before. The small plates were perfect for sharing, not too heavy, and full of flavor.

Spicy soy glazed wings that were meaty, saucy, and full of just the right amount of heat to start.
We loved the Spare Ribs, but felt it was a smaller portion compared to the other plates, so I might not order them again.

Next up were the Tamarind Fries, with flavoring that reminded me of salt and vinegar chip seasoning. So addicting that we devoured the whole plate.

And last, the Kua Mee Stir Fried Noodles with Brisket and no bean sprouts.
Oh my goodness, the brisket was so tender and the sauce flavorful and well balanced.

This spot is a hidden gem and a must try, worth a drive out to Schuylerville for sure!

I'm obsessed with their cauliflower wings and they have decent cocktails. Great vibe on the patio with live music & nice views of the nearby fountain. Unfortunately, they ran out of rice around 6:30 pm on a Saturday, so we didn't get a chance to try any other dishes, but this just means I'll have to return - highly recommend!

What a unique brewery taproom. The ambience of the place and the beer I had was awesome! I look forward to trying the food next time I visit. The customer service is excellent as well.

How cool is it to find a Laotian restaurant in the small, tucked away village of Schuylerville? My fiancé really enjoyed his craft brewed beer and I had a lovely hibiscus cocktail. The brewery and restaurant are in a relaxed and cool atmosphere with great music and friendly staff. We ordered the pork sausage, pork belly appetizer, and the red curry. All three dishes were delicious but the curry was next level. It had a nice heat to it and a really complex and nuanced flavor. We ate every last bite of it. We finished it off with the fun hibiscus donuts. Will definitely be back!

This was a trek for us but glad we made it. The food was unique unlike anything we've tried before. There were plenty of veg options especially In the app section. The kids went crazy for the desserts (see the pics!) And even liked the chicken a lot (not spicy). The adult food was heavily spiced. The cauliflower was unlike any spicy cauliflower I've had as it seemed like it was raw on the inside (which was weird but the seasoning made up for it). Beer was good, plenty of choices (but doesn't beat my fav brewery).
