I stayed at a hotel down the road and ended up eating here a few times -- it's a nice spot along a river - a great place to relax, catch up with friends, or for people looking for a quiet place with good food and coffee, it's a good place to sit with a book for a while.
The food is great -- I had both the northern Thai pork curry and the Khao Soi (another type of northern Thai curry) with deep fried pork. Both were delicious with some great flavors -- I've had these dishes in multiple places and this restaurant does solid, tasty renditions.

My Gf had the shrimp omelette rice dish which is also wonderful.
They also sell various types of canvas for you to paint and let your imagination shine. While you enjoy the nice view of the Ping river. (Dolls, big/mid/small canvas, key chains, and etc.)
Staffs there are also very nice and polite. The cashier smiled ever since we arrived until we left.
Definitely worth coming...
