Hello everyone, today I will take everyone to know a very special food that may be a little strange. Because it's not seen often. And this dish is "Mangosteen spicy salad". It still sounds strange. Even I, who is Thai, have never seen it before and this is my first time as well.
Actually, I often travel to Chiang Mai because it is another province that I really like. And that time I had the opportunity to eat at this restaurant. This restaurant is called Baan Mae. It is a large restaurant. But that time I met it by accident. Because I walked to eat lunch but I stopped to drink coffee. Because this shop also has a cafe. At that time there were not many customers. Makes the resterant look quiet Because it's the Covid period.
The storefront that I saw looked like a small coffee shop because it was during the daytime. After ordering coffee, I went to sit and take a look at the surrounding atmosphere. It was very interesting. There are a lot of flowers in this shop, beautiful colors, and the decoration of the shop looks very Thai. As we walked around, we found some classic decorations inside the shop. I like to take pictures. After a while, a man came to greet me, who was probably the owner of the shop. He seemed very friendly and came to recommend the shop. The origin of this resterant
Makes you know why this restaurant is called Baan Mae. If it's a word in Thai, Baan means house, and Mae means mother, the meaning is When you come to eat at this restaurant, you will feel that the food you eat is like your mother's cooking at home. It was such a warm meaning. I really liked it. He continued to guide me and take me to see the shop inside. I told him that I was asking for permission to take photos because I was going to write a blog and get a review. He was very pleased. He speaks nicely. Until it makes us want to come eat for dinner. And we really came to eat.
And at dinner that day we were a little late. It made people start to thin out but they were well received. We walked to choose a seat in the inside zone. The surrounding atmosphere looked simple and elegant. There are wine bottles lined up. Some corners are decorated with crystals and look beautiful. And of course, there are flowers from many different angles. Once you've chosen your seat, start ordering your food. And an interesting menu is spicy mangosteen salad.
And another menu item is Tom Kha Kai. This menu is already known. We didn't order a lot of food because we had eaten snack before and we weren't hungry. But I promised the owner that I would come and wanted to try the food as well.
After a while the food we ordered was served. along with rice I like the decoration of the food. Flowers are decorated on food plates, making them look more colorful and delicious even on rice plates. The special menu looks interesting. It is a food that is not available to eat every day because if there is a season where there are no mangosteens, this dish is not available to order. We tried it and it was very delicious. It's so new to me You may be familiar with the taste of many types of salads, but this was the first time you've eaten mangosteen.
We sat down and ate a delicious meal. After a while, we were full but still didn't go back. Looking at the tea menu, we wanted to drink tea before bed to relax. We ordered hot flower tea. Come have a drink before leaving, sit and talk while drinking tea. feel relaxed The atmosphere is very good. We sat until the restaurant was about to close and then we headed back. We were very happy to eat at this restaurant. If anyone has the opportunity to travel to Chiang Mai, Thailand and wants to eat Thai food. Good atmosphere, don't forget to stop by this restaurant. Guaranteed you won't be disappointed.

Whoa, the place is really good, and it is surrounded with nature which make it a really good place. As for the salad, I haven't even try the Mangosteen, but making it as a salad is interesting. I want to try that, too bad its far from Philippines, lol
