Khao Soi Khun Yai
The best khao soi in Chiang Mai — and that is saying something in the city that invented it. A tiny local shop, outdoor tables, insane coconut curry noodle soup for under $2.

Huen Phen Restaurant
Chiang Mai's most beloved restaurant for authentic northern Thai (Lanna) cuisine — a 40-year-old institution in a traditional wooden house in the Old City. Famous for its Khao Soi, Khanom Chin Nam Ngiao, Gaeng Hanglay, and the extraordinary lunch buffet of northern Thai dishes. Anthony Bourdain featured it. Solo travelers always find a warm welcome here.

SP Chicken Chiang Mai
A Chiang Mai institution since the 1970s — a simple open-air restaurant in the Night Bazaar area famous for its rotisserie Isan-style gai yang (grilled chicken) spinning on spits outside the restaurant. Paired with sticky rice and nam jim jaew dipping sauce. Incredibly cheap, endlessly busy with locals, and one of the most satisfying meals in the city.
