eyecatcher Posted September 20, 2012 Share Posted September 20, 2012 Does anyone else find that the dirtier the restaurant, the better the Pad Grapao tastes? With a greasy fried egg over the top, its like greasy spoon food. hahaha yes !I like mine basic meat, pepper, garlic, seasonings and basil leaf. No green beans please. Pad Grapow involves a handful of red and green chillies aswell...........you wimp....give your metabolism a charge haha peppers are chilis ! those chilipeppers are great fat burners.But sometimes it doesnt feel to good on the other end. You don't like to order the "ring of fire" then? Went to the Nam Ping Mae last night, first time after reading some reviews here; got to say its a thumbs up for me, and will be going back again for sure. Had the geng henlay? as one dish,....and today, i have the ring of fire! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ambience NOT good but wonderful flavour. Avoid the "ottel" (oxtail) soup. Run by a couple of lovely old ladies.http://maps.google.c...004495&t=m&z=16.

beb Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 A small restaurant near Back Canyon, in the corner of Rajdumnern road, the name is Sailomjoy, good food, not expensive. http://maps.google.c...,218.3,,1,-1.58 Kao Soi Samer Jai, Fha Ham . http://maps.google.c...,321.7,,1,-5.62 Visited Khao Soi Samer Jai today. I liked the place and the Khao soi was good. The taste was a little more tangy than others. But I was surprised at the small portion. In the end it was enough for me but I tend to eat smaller portions anyway. Thanks for the suggestion. I'll return to try the other dishes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elektrified Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 (edited) Glad to hear that people are enjoying Mae Naam Ping. Hopefully they won't be raising the prices with all the farangs eating there now. Just joking, they haven't raised prices as long as we have been going there -- a couple of years now. If you are really on a tight budget you could try the "Shan-style steamed rice mixed with pork in banana leaves" for a whopping 15 Baht. It's really quite tasty and very filling! I ordered it once as an appetizer and was so full after that I couldn't eat anything else. The owners aren't the friendliest bunch but it doesn't matter. They always get the orders right and the food is delicious. Enjoy! As a bonus the place is very clean as are the toilets.

We had something similar the other night,didnt notice the beer though my girl was too busy pointing to something healthier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joop50 Posted September 22, 2012 Share Posted September 22, 2012 Very useful topic in case dollar and/or euro collaps continue and many farang will reduce to beggary. When I just lived here, my gf and my curiosity took me to many places mentioned as above, my health decreased according to the number of dining there.

beb Posted October 2, 2012 Share Posted October 2, 2012 For the absolute best Kao Soy in Chiang Mai go here. 40-50 baht 1) right at nakorn ping condo (on Huay Kaew across from Shell) 2) first right 3) first left 4) Kao Soy Mae Sai on your left about 50 meters They have tender braised beef or a chicken leg. 40-50 baht, no place else can compare. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Went here for lunch today and it was delicious. I tried the beef and not that big a fan of the fattier pieces but it was good stuff. A friend had chicken and had nothing but praise for it and he's been around a long time. Thanks for the lead.
