Last Supper in Bangkok! Dreaming of Northern Thailand’s Chiang Mai with Khao Soi

- Food Travel Log
- Satisfied with Bangkok, my last meal at the airport: Khao Soi with crispy and boiled noodles. The sweet, rich, spicy curry was addictive, with plenty of chicken to satisfy! But knowing Khao Soi is from Chiang Mai in northern Thailand, I yearn for more satisfaction. Will I never learn to be content? Oh well.

- Khao Soi is a traditional dish originating from Chiang Mai in northern Thailand, characterized by its unique style of curry with coconut milk and boiled noodles, topped with crispy fried noodles. It is said that this dish was introduced by Muslim immigrants who had previously migrated from China to Thailand. In Chiang Mai, Khao Soi is beloved by locals as a casual dish that can be enjoyed at food stalls and restaurants. The typical preparation involves slowly simmering chicken or beef, then creating a soup by adding curry paste and coconut milk, pouring this soup over boiled noodles, and finally topping it with crispy fried noodles. Enjoying this dish at the airport in Bangkok suggests the author is someone who enjoys discovering favorite foods anywhere without being particular about local regions or origins. However, perhaps a pilgrimage to the birthplace of Khao Soi might be in order. If you have that kind of passion, it might not be long before you speak of a novel discovery like "wrapped Khao Man Gai."
