Every morning, our six-year-old daughter, Alice, asks the same question:
“Mom, are we going to the restaurant today?”
To most children, a restaurant is a place to eat.
To Alice, it’s home.
She has grown up between the dining room and the kitchen—taking her first steps here,
drawing pictures at her favorite table, and greeting familiar guests with a smile after school.
Many of our customers met Alice when she was just a newborn,
sleeping peacefully behind little signs that read,
“Baby Sleeping,” during the uncertainty of the COVID-19 pandemic.
As Alice grew, so did Chiang Mai Thai Cookhouse.
Our story has never been just about food.
It’s about family, resilience, and sharing the flavors of Chiang Mai with the community we now call home.
Every bowl of Khao Soi, every curry, and every meal we serve carries the same promise:
If we wouldn’t proudly serve it to our own family, we won’t serve it to yours.
Welcome to our table.
Welcome to our family.
Welcome to Chiang Mai Thai Cookhouse.
At Chiang Mai Thai Cookhouse, our food is inspired by the flavors, traditions, and warm spirit of Thai home cooking. Thai cuisine is known for its beautiful balance of spicy, sour, sweet, and savory — layered with fresh herbs and aromatic spices such as lemongrass, basil, galangal, and kaffir lime.
Our menu offers a thoughtful selection of authentic Thai dishes, from appetizers to desserts, each prepared with care and harmony of flavor. We take pride in using fresh ingredients and time-honored recipes to create meals that bring the taste of Thailand to your table.
Whether you’re joining us in our dining room or enjoying your meal at home, we prepare every dish with the same care and quality. We love welcoming guests to our restaurant — and when you take our food home, we make sure it still feels just as special.
