Why go, and how to do it well

Tucked into the Mae Hi area of Pai, this warmly regarded restaurant has earned a loyal following among locals and travelers alike for its honest cooking, welcoming owners, and a second-floor setting that looks out over the valley and surrounding mountains. The atmosphere is relaxed and unpretentious, making it a natural fit for independent travelers and anyone seeking a genuine meal without a tourist markup.

The menu draws on Thai and Myanmar influences, with standout dishes including a house-special beef curry served with vegetables and dark rice, a bamboo shoot stir fry with chicken, and a fermented tea leaf salad — a regional speciality worth seeking out. Myanmar green tea rounds out the drinks offering. The kitchen is noted for cooking without MSG, fish sauce, or oyster sauce, which suits visitors with dietary preferences or sensitivities. Prices sit firmly in the budget range, offering strong value for the quality on the plate.

I really love this restaurant. I come here very often and it has become one of my favorite places in Pai. The house special, a Beef Curry with vegetables and dark rice, is super delicious and always worth ordering. The view is also beautiful and makes the meal even better. I also really enjoy the Burmese food. The Myanmar Salad is fresh, crispy and full of flavor. One of the best I’ve had. The owner is amazing. He is very kind, very warm and always gives his best. You feel welcome every time you visit. I can only recommend this place. I will keep coming back. ❤️

Excellent food along with excellent views of the valley. We ordered the bamboo shoot stir fry with chicken and the fermented Tea Leaf salad, also a myanmar green tea (hot). Great flavors and great service. Easy walk from the city.

Tasty and reasonably priced lunch. We were told they do not use msg, fish sauce and oyster sauce. It would have been perfect if our food was served piping hot.

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.
