Why go, and how to do it well
Aroy Dee is a compact Thai restaurant on Mun Mueang Road in the Old City, named on two of the Chiang Mai food lists I compared. Its menu covers khao soi, curries, stir-fries and a long run of vegetarian options.
I'd order the khao soi, which reviewers rate highly in both chicken and vegetarian versions, with chicken and cashews or drunken noodles on the side. Reviewers praise fast, friendly service and a warm owner. One found the smoothies weaker than elsewhere in town.

Tips for Visiting Restaurants & Food
Follow the Crowds
The busiest street stalls are almost always the best — high turnover means fresh ingredients and a recipe that locals vouch for. An empty restaurant at dinner time is a red flag.
Ice Is Safe
Factory-made tube or cylinder ice (used in virtually all restaurants and stalls) is made from purified water and is safe to consume. You don't need to skip the iced Thai tea.
Use Grab for Delivery
The Grab app works for food delivery across Thailand, letting you order from street stalls and restaurants alike. It's invaluable on rainy days or when you want to eat in your hotel.
