The guide’s ranking · Chiang Mai

Best Khao Soi
in Chiang Mai

Khao Soi is the undisputed signature dish of Chiang Mai and the wider Northern region. This Burmese-influenced coconut curry noodle soup is a masterclass in texture and flavor contrast. It features soft egg noodles submerged in a rich and slightly spicy aromatic broth. The bowl is topped with a nest of crispy fried noodles for a satisfying crunch in every bite. It is traditionally served with pickled mustard greens, raw shallots, and a squeeze of lime.
