Chiang Mai sits where Thailand meets Myanmar, Laos, and China – and you can taste that history in every dish. This is where lemongrass and galangal first found their way into Thai cooking, perfected centuries ago in the royal courts of the ancient Lanna Kingdom. Tonight, those traditions play out in the city's night markets.
As evening settles in, the markets transform. Smoke rises from sizzling woks, vendors call out their specialties, and the scent of grilling meats and fresh herbs fills the narrow lanes. Your guide knows exactly which stalls to seek out, the ones where recipes have been handed down through generations, where the food has real soul to it.
You'll taste your way through northern Thai snacks that don't exist anywhere else, building up to the dish Chiang Mai is truly known for: Khao Soi. That rich, golden coconut curry ladled over crispy and soft noodles, a bowl so distinctive to this region that nowhere else quite gets it right. Each stop reveals another layer of the city's culinary story, the kind of evening where you understand a place through what it feeds you.
