Sample Menu

MAIN
Khao Soi - Chiang Mai Noodles
This is a must-try dish for anyone visiting the north of Thailand. It referred to as “Chiang Mai Noodles”
MAIN
Tom Yum Soup
Tom Yum Goong is one of the most famous Thai dishes among foreigners and people from Thailand, alike.

Akha Fish Filet in Tomato Sauce
This recipe is my favorite of my grandma’s fish recipes. If you’re trying to lose weight or improve your diet, you should probably eat more fish.

Stir-Fried Vegetables
This dish is very clean and healthy, garlicky, crunchy, and flavorful with a little kick from its chilies.
