JEAB Cafe & Thai Food — Restaurant in Chiang Mai Province

Went here 4 times for dinner during work days and weekends. Tried their Red Curry, Tom Yum, Spring Rolls, Kao Soy, Omellete, Pad Thai and Shrimp Fried Rice. Service depends how many customers they have, if you come during busy hours of course service will be slower. It depends and it varies. Waiting time max 20 mins or less if no customers. So allow yourself time. The food is average to excellent i can say. The Red Curry taste good for me though. I came back twice for it. I am not sure it it is supposed to taste creamy but I liked it that way. The Spring Roll taste good when freshly cooked so eat it while its hot. The Tom Yum Shrimp is perfect for me. Good portion and shrimp ratio is okay but maybe make it 6 pieces next time. Lol! The Kao Soy has a strong curry taste which is good but I think there’s not much noodles. At 89 Baht? There are more decent serving portion out there. The Omellete has bits of pork on it. You have to tell them if you don’t want Pork, otherwise they will just add it. I don’t eat Pork but was not asked about it. They should at least tell the customers that pork will be added. I thought it’s just plain omellete. So better ask if you’d try it. The Pad Thai looked good and is good. So yeah. The Shimp Fried rice is perfect for me. Good portion size too. Overall good Thai Food restaurant...

This spot offers a relaxed, clean setting and milder flavors that will appeal to tourists.

If you’re new to Thai food and looking for a safe, comfortable introduction, this place might be for you. The papaya salad leans sweet, missing the bold, salty kick and fishy depth you’d expect from a more traditional spot. The khao soi? It was fine—not bad, but nothing that’ll leave you raving. Portion-wise, the bowl looked big, but it was only about a third full.

Prices are on the higher side for Chiang Mai, with khao soi at 89 baht and papaya salad at 69 baht—easily double what you’d pay at places serving richer, more authentic flavors. The iced Thai tea (45 baht, plus 10 baht for ice) was decent, though asking for less ice meant my cup was only about 80% full when served to me. Topping it off with bottled water did the trick. Oh, and don’t forget, they only take cash.

For those who like their food a little more adventurous, there’s no shortage of options...

I came here in the morning because of quite some possitive reviews on Google. When I was in front of the door checking thr menu, I was a little bit hesitant but I walked in anyway. I ordered the Northern Thai curry noodle ( Khao soi), papaya salad and a not commonly seen century-egg (pidan) salad. Amazing, they are very tasty. The noodle comes with a chicken drum stick, tender but still with chewing texture. Papaya salad is on average (good enough). But the centry egg salad is a bit out of my expectation. The salty fish sauce and lemon grass add an extra flavor while the penut gives a crunchy texture. Carrot strips and a bit of coriander are supporting the dish, amazingly tasty (for me, as centry egg lover). This dish may be a bit difficult for many, especially westernerd but its worth of trying. I finished them all. Very good restaurant. I highly...
