Trust me, guys, next time you come to Chiang Mai, stay at Le Meridien.
All the bargain shopping, hustle and bustle (and McDonald’s and Starbucks and
Haagen Dazs, too!) are just outside your hotel door
And you also have, as this food cart claims, the “Best Roti in Chiang Mai”
I can’t possibly let The Best pass me by. The Best Food, The Best Man, The Best Banana Roti… I GOTTA HAVE IT ALL!!!
Come on baby, load my roti up with chocolate from Hershey
Very delicious but I wouldn’t say it’s the very best. If the bananas were caramelized and topped with a whole jar of Nutella, scoops of peanut butter ice cream, whipped cream and showered generously with hazelnuts and almonds, then THAT, I tell you, is the best banana roti in the whole wide world. Nonetheless, this simple but honest banana roti is really good food street stuff.
5-minute enjoyable walk away is the Anusarn Food and Walking Street Market
Fruits, nuts, fresh fruit juices
Wood products, trinkets, clothes
T-shirts and fisherman’s pants
Magazine peddler. How cool is that?
There are many, many more interesting things to see. Seafood restaurants, Thai massages, more roti stands… Too bad my camera died down on me.
Night markets and bazaars can be crowded, noisy and rowdy, but worry not…
