FolkGuitar Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 Someplace with the ambiance of the Chiang Dao Nest, the great taste of the Nest 2, but without having to wait 2 hours to get served. Two other tables ahead of us today at the Nest 2, and after 2 hours we pulled the plug. Lovely place. Delicious food. But what would we do if it were actually crowded? So we're looking for another great place... Do you have a recommendation in the Chiang Dao area? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loaded Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 If you stay here, the restaurant/food in the evening is very relaxed http://www.azalea-village.com/ It's not Chang Dao Nest level but enjoyable especially if you only need to stagger to your room after eating/drinking. Rooms are OK but the beds had me sleeping 8 hours - I'm normally a 5-6 man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thaibeachlovers Posted December 24, 2018 Share Posted December 24, 2018 Malees was fine for me, and no ridiculous prices either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eyecatcher Posted December 24, 2018 Share Posted December 24, 2018 not sure the name of this place but I have been at least three times. Its before you get to the crossroads that lead to the nest/malees etc. You climb the hill from the town intersection and its on the right. Massive place with outdoor setting, ponds, and a very new traditional Thai house thats been transported here and rebuilt Trad thai food, and perfect setting having said that its not up agai st much if anything. Infact the Black cat comes second, i dont think there is a third place to get into third place! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When driving from Chiang Mai, there is an traffic light intersection just BEFORE the town, turn right and go through the middle of downtown Chiang Dao, or stay left on the By-pass road. The place to which you refer is on the right side of the the By-pass road. Or.... Are you saying go INTO town and turn left at the intersection road that goes up to the crossroads and further on to the Nest or Cave, and this place is on THAT road? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sparkles Posted December 26, 2018 Share Posted December 26, 2018 There's a relatively new restaurant called Chiang Dao Resto about 100 m before the road branches to the by pass or to town heading north.We ate there a couple of years back it hadn't been open long, was very nice, only views are over the rice fields.I noticed last time we passed, on our way to Fang, a coffee shop & bakery had been added.I guess up todate reviews are on Trip Advisor,Google etc etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I remember it, when coming from Chiang Mai you don't go anywhere near the town to go up to Chang Dao cave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really don't remember when it opened. But for many, many years, you had to drive into the middle of town and take the left turn just before the Market grounds to get to the cave. I remember driving north one day, and being surprised by it, thinking I was getting lost! LOL! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
