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.

🍜

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.

🍜

Dash! Restaurant Chiang Mai

A refined northern Thai restaurant in a beautiful restored wooden house in the Old City, run by a team passionate about preserving authentic Lanna culinary traditions. Serves an exceptional tasting menu of northern Thai dishes — wild mushroom curry, pork laab, fermented rice noodles — in an intimate, candlelit setting. Excellent wine list for the region.
