CHIANGMAI'S RESTAURANTS
=======================
ChiangMai�s restaurants offer the variety of styles and dishes to make you feel
right at home. Whether it be Western food, such as Italian, French, American,
and German; or Asian, such as Japanese, Korean, Vietnamese and Chinese,
ChiangMai has it all. And then, of course, there�s the Thai and Northern Thai
dishes that every visitor who truly wants to experience Chiang Mai must try....
Thai food, as Thai culture, is a blend of different tastes and spices from
several countries. Ingredients from India and China have been mixed and matched
through the passage of time into what is now known as Thai food.
Most Thai dishes have a strong and spicy taste, some of the favorites being as
follows; Somtom, a papaya salad mixed with peppers, tomatoes, peanuts, shrimp,
and lime; Tom Yam, a spicy, sour soup that is made with chicken, pork, shrimp,
or beef; and of course, the many different curries. These, however, are only a
small representation of the many delicious dishes that Thailand has to offer.
Northern food offers a variation from Thai food, as it is a blend of both local
and Burmese tastes. Most of the spices used in Northern dishes originated in
Burma, thus giving Northern dishes a distinct smell and taste.
Some of the popular Northern dishes indude the following: Nam Prik Ong, which
has a sweet, sour, and spicy taste, is made from minced pork, mixed with pepper
sauce, and tomatoes; Nam Prik Num, stronger in taste and made from barbecued
peppers and anchovies; Larp Koi, made from minced pork or beef, mixed with
peppers and other spices, is eaten with fresh vegetables; and Khow Soy, a
Chinese - Muslim egg noodle dish filled with chunks of beef and chicken and
lightly sprinkled with coconut cream and garnished with garlic and crispy
noodles. Again, this is only a small representation of the complete list of
Northern food.

BREAKFAST
=========
As most Thai people prefer to eat breakfast at home, the majority of
restaurants and shops remain closed until later in the morning. In the downtown
area, there are some restaurants which serve early breakfasts, and almost all
of the hotels and guest houses do provide a breakfast service. There are also
numerous shops and vendors that sell X shaped pastries called �patangkoh� and a
porridge called �joke� as local Thai breakfasts.
In addition, markets and shops sell breads and fruits along with Thai and
Northern foods.
=====
LUNCH
=====
Lunch time offers a variety of choices for dining. All-you-can-eat buffets at
large hotels feature Western, Chinese, and Japanese foods at between 80-200
baht per person.
There are also many restaurants featuring foods of all types. And of course,
there are the noodle shops located almost everywhere throughout the city.
======
DINNER
======
It is the time when almost all the restaurants around the city are in full
swing. Whether you plan to dine Italian or Indian, ChiangMai�s dinner- time
restaurants provide the array of dishes to satisfy your tastes. At this time
there are also food gardens which offer a variety of dishes among a pleasant
atmosphere of both light and live music. A little note on the dress�in Thailand
you are not expected to dress up for dinner at a restaurant, although you may
certainly do so if you wish.
==============
KANTOKE DINNER
==============
It is also possible to sample Northern dishes at one of the 'Kantoke Dinners' in
ChiangMai. At this event, visitors are seated in the floor around a circular
tray with Northern dishes on it and eat while watching traditional Thai and
Northern dances and hill tribe culture shows. Kantoke Dinners provide a good
way to get to know both the Northern food and culture at the same time.
If you wish to BOOK a KANTOKE dinner:
