Kha Nom Jeen Nam Ngiao
Enjoy some genuine Kha Nom Jeen Nam Ngiao, a noodle soup with influences from the Burmese and Yunnanese Tai Yai people. The cartilage in the original recipe will be simmered to create a flavorful broth. To the boiling water, add the chili paste and the pork bones. Bring to a boil some ground pork, tomatoes, and coriander roots. The food on this menu is the most calming and relaxing option.
Thai Iced Tea
One of the best ways to cool off on a hot day is with a glass of Thai iced tea. Its distinctive orange color comes from the addition of milk to brewed black tea that has been steeped and left to release more of its fragrance. The end product is a rich and satisfying sugary and creamy drink. As a matter of fact, it is so popular that it is the 7th most popular non-alcoholic beverage in the world!
While staying at Athita, a local boutique hotel, you can cool off with a variety of dishes from Wiang Neua eatery. We have taken great care in selecting only the highest quality ingredients and are happy to serve as an ambassador for northern Thai cuisine.
