Always a favorite!

I have been to the location in Bangkok and it was amazing also. You can tell that the food was cooked with love and good intention. No matter what I have ordered it has always been very tasty and well-presented. I highly recommend this place in either the Bangkok or Chiang Mai locations.

Pros: taste presentation service atmosphere price

Cons: none

Fabulous food

Simple cafe surroundings but high quality food - recommend the northern specialities. Good value for money, too - 2 adults and 3 kids ate for 500B.

Amazing cooking class

Under the supervision of our teacher, did we make amazingly delicious meals during our cooking class. Did get a chance to go eat here again as a regular customer, but wow!
In the cooking class you will actually make the dishes yourself, and get side notes about tips and tricks, which you can write down in the little recipe book that you will get.
Highly recommend!!

Must go vegan resto and cooking class

I took the cooking classes here and had a great time, You learn so much, eat immensely, and get to bring back a booklet full of recipes. Highly recommend it! The restaurant portion is nice too, although the ambiance of the Bangkok one is better, the food is good in both.

Pros: Cooking class, Good food

Cons: a bit expensive for the portion size

Super cooking class

We came here after eating in the Bangkok branch and being really impressed with the food.
The cooking class lasted just over 3 hours (we did the afternoon session starting at 2pm) and we made 10 different things: green curry paste, Tom yum paste, peanut sauce, pumpkin houmous, papaya salad, fresh spring rolls, green curry, pad Thai, masaman curry, Tom yum soup, and mango sticky rice. You get to eat all of it as you go along too, so come with an empty stomach!!
All this food is available in the restaurant too - I would highly recommend the cooking course, but if you don't have time, at least go to the restaurant for food!!!

Pros: Cooking class, Good selection of food, Friendly staff

cooking class

Did a cooking class here whilst in Chiang Mai. Made around about 8 dishes and sides and was given a recipe book. Highly recommend as it all tasted amazing. Just don’t eat that before you come, it’s a lot of food. But you can also take some away. Didn’t actually order anything from the menu but the prices were good and what we made was amazing.

Afoordable vegan Thai food

Ate here three or four times during my Chiang Mai stay; first time I had the Kao Ob Tan Ya Peud which was one of the tastiest things I've eaten.
On another trip tried fish cakes and khao soi for the first time, which we asked for not to be spicy as my gut currently can't handle it. Sadly both came out very spicy (spicier than normal Thai "not spicy"). Made a note of it and the staff tried to water down the noodles, but I still couldn't eat it. He said it was an inherently spicy dish, which is fine, just tell me that before I order it!
We weren't charged for it, which was nice, but I then had to go find another meal after nearly an hour. We still went back another time but were more careful with our orders.

Pros: Low prices, Good taste, Nice staff

Cons: Language barrier?, Cultural spiciness level difference?

The best!

Ein sehr empfehlenswertes Restaurant mit großer Auswahl!Man kann sich fast nicht entscheiden da kein Gericht gleich klingt und alles so unfassbar lecker!Alles ist unfassbar lieb und aufwendig angerichtet und erinnert schon fast an eine Kreation.Man schmeck den qualitativen Unterschied heraus und das für einen fairen Preis! Alle Hauptgerichte zwischen 60 und 100 Bath,dazu wahlweise eine der tollen Vorspeisen. Kleiner Hinweis am Rande : Die nette,sehr junge Bedienung verrechnet sich ab und zu mal,also einfach nochmal einen Blick auf die Rechnung werfen ;)

Viel Spaß!

Pros: Creative and special Thai Food

Cooking school

Tried the cooking school and it was worth every penny. The teacher was very friendly and instructed us into making our own delicious dishes. We made 7 different dishes and got a small book With The recipes as well. I would recommend this to everyone. Remember not to eat beforehand, since you will get a lot of food!! :)

Pros: Vegan or vegetarian. Very tasty

Great food

This restaurant had amazing food though you wouldn’t think so by the decor! Everything we tried was delicious especially the ‘fishcakes’, banana flower, and salads. I didn’t get a chance to try their Khao soi but hear it’s pretty good. I went to the cooking course as well and it was really good but the one thing that I wasn’t happy with was that they gave the option to use eggs but then didn’t ask people to wash their hands afterwards. So if you have an allergy as I do I then couldn’t try any of the subsequent dishes that others made as there was then eggs through everything. As a vegan restaurant I’m not sure why they don’t just keep the cooking class vegan as well and tell people how to include eggs at home (as they did with meat/ fish).

wonderful

very good food at very affordable price.
Ok, the portions aren‘t very big but that gives you the chance to try more than 1 meal.
a salad or an appetizer plus a main course should be enough.
the food is really delicious, the options are quite different from „normal“ restaurants - it‘s fun to try new meals.
I have been here 4 times and never was disappointed.

A big recommendation.

Muy recomendable!

El lugar no es muy elegante ni atractivo pero la atencion y la comida es excelente. El personal es amable y sonriente. No es completamente vegan pero casi.Recomiendo el masaman curry. Las porciones son abundantes y es economico. Solo comida Thai.

Delicious!

We tried the tofu thai "fishcakes", the khao soi curry and the banana flower salad. Everything was delicious.

Lots of veggies in the khao soi - greens, carrots, broccoli, mushroom, cauliflower. Some places it has potato and onion and is kind of heavy.

Fast and knowledgeable service. Cute quiet location. Good price for the high quality of the food 😊

Amazing cooking class

We did their cooking class and I'm so happy with it! All the dishes turned out exactly how, in my opinion, thai food is suppose to taste like. Highly recommend the cooking class. Unfortunately we stayed quite far from here so we didn't eat at the restaurant, but if it's anything like the food we cooked you should definitely try it out!

Pros: Amazing vegetarian/vegan cooking class, Friendly staff

nice place

ordered Pad Thai and Seaweed Rolls which were more than average.
Enjoyed Pad Thai, but when tried Seaweed Rolls I was a bit disappointed, 2/3 of ingredients were missing - (sweet potato, pumpkin and shitake mushroom). Instead they put some veggies like broccoli and corn.
Staff was friendly, agreed that they didn’t had several components and made a refund.

best cooking class in town!

I had a vegan cooking class here and it was absolutely amazing! It was easy and the food we made tasted delicious! The owners are so so sweet and I really enjoyed both eating and cooking here. If you're looking for a vegan/vegetarian cooking class in Chiang Mai - this is the place to go!

Best. Cooking. Class. Ever.

So we didn't actually eat here, but we did the cooking class and can HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend it!
We cooked 2x soups, pad Thai, 2x curries, spring rolls, a salad and dessert. Our host (Ming) was unbelievable. Showing us all the little tips and tricks and best way to do things. They also checked in before going forward with a recipe to make sure we didn't want eggs in too.
As 2 vegans, we weren't sure whether we could find a good cooking class, but rest assured we have and it is definitely at May Kaidee!!! If you get a chance, not to be missed.

Best place in town

I just love the food here. It is so tasty. And we are not talking about your typical run off the mill thai cooking here. No we are talking about flavour sensations that will amaze you.

When in Chiang Mai you absolutely have to eat here.

There carrot salad left me in awe.
The pumpkin humus is wonderful and the fresh spring rolls with their own style of peanut sauce is the best.

Pros: Carrot salad carrot salad carrot salad, Super tasty food. Amazing flavour combinations, Food is prepared pretty quickly

Cons: They are only in Chiang Mai and Bangkok
