Seeking “hole in the wall” restaurants in CM for home-style farang food

There is a certain “style” of restaurant in Chiang Mai, a little building, often very tiny, next to a family home, in a residential area, that specializes in home-style farang food.

 

I’ve found exceptionally good farang food, plus friendly, welcoming service at such places.

So actively looking for others to try.

 

Examples:

 

CM old-timers will remember 10-15 years ago, “Garden Cafe” at the end of Thapae Soi 3.

Perfect breakfasts, very nice sandwiches.

I still recall a USA-style Thanksgiving dinner there one year: roast turkey, stuffing,

pumpkin pie – excellent.

Alas, Garden Cafe is long gone.

 

My current favorite of this style is Bucoliq restaurant out SanSai way.

Far down a long and winding road, past rice fields.

Tiny building next to what seems to be family home.

Specializing in Texas-style BBQ + perfect pancakes + the best hot dogs I’ve found in 20 years in Thailand.

 

Where – these days – are there other such “hole in the wall” restaurants that are likely to offer good quality farang food like that?

The Gekko Garden Restaurant on Sri Donchai Rd. offers a large Farang menu as well as Thai food. It offers good food and good value for the money.
They will be doing a Thanksgiving buffet, as well as their regular Sunday night buffet.
