• Some delightful tastes, some disappointments

Bamboo Bee Vegetarian Restaurant 177 Ratchaphakhinai Road | Sri Phum Subdistrict, Chiang Mai 50200, Thailand 66 90 463 6583 This place has zero “street appeal”. If it had not been for the reviews online I would have never gone in. Only two sizable tables and three tiny tables covered with various items they have not stored away. The seats are wooden benches with no concern for customer comfort. The place is very messy but clean with the exception of the cauldron of water outside that has never had the water changed and so is growing algae and probably mosquitoes. Only one fan for the whole restaurant. They do not speak much English so it is just point at the menu unless dining with a Thai friend as I was. We were ½ way through eating our guacamole when my friend had a hunch to ask where the curry was. They had completely forgot about it. The food > Imagine my disappointment, I had read reviews of them having a great Veggie burger so I went there only to find they have only white flour buns or bread – no whole wheat or whole multi-grain. No concept that most people that eat healthy veggie burgers are not interested in white flour. So I pass on the 179B Veggie Burger. I went for the 169B guacamole but should have looked more closely as it came with deep fried white flour crisps. The guacamole itself was delicious!!, Had a 75B lime, honey and peppermint juice. Very tasty!, The 95B Red Curry with tofu, mushrooms, yellow peppers and lime leaves was a very yummy dish! The 100B Hot Banana Carmel was wonderful tasting! They have 169B fried potatoes > way overpriced, 159B Veggie Tempura that sells in many places around town for under 100B A variety of mostly Thai dishes Expensive pricing on many items compared to any of the other restaurants we have visited in Chiang Mai Overall the food we had was very good but can’t say the same about any of the other factors See photos for other menu items 12pm to 9pm
