Somtum House - Yokkrok — Restaurant in Chiang Mai Province

I come here every once in a while. The taste is always spot on and very แซ่บ (perfect mix of sour, saltiness, spice & a bit of sweet).

Personal favourite: Riceberry sticky rice It’s crunchy and soft on the inside Tom Klong Pla Grob ฿95 Very crunchy and tender fried fish Very herby soup Tum Ka-naa Moo Grob ฿89 Nice crunch Tum Ma-Moung Pla duk Foo ฿89 Soft, fluffy, crunchy cat fish + tropical taste of unripe mango fried ice cream ฿39

!!! If you’re not a spice lover: say ped noi (little heat) or mai ped (not spicy), spare the pain, especially for dishes with spicy herbs. Some dishes here are Real Hot.

The proportions are near the small side. I suggest 1 soup, 1 side, 1 salad. The staff are nice; the place is clean. It’s difficult to find lower priced restaurants like this...

Weather you are a Thai national or a foreigner YOU MUST go here for the best thai food in Chiang Mai at really cheap prices!! The restaurant is beautifully air conditioned seating in comfort with a simple modern interior design or sit outside in the shaded tabled area for dinner, the friendly English speaking owner 'fiat' and her very attentive staff will welcome you ! The high society of Chiang Mai frequent this place daily for their fix of som tom (spicy Thai salad) The menu is amazing! the freshest and cleanest food we have experienced in Thailand!! They also have an amazing boutique smoothie and natural yogurts on the menu You must try...

What an amazing little restaurant! The menu had so many inventive and delicious looking dishes it was hard to choose. We got the SamOh salad, Namtok Mu and the salty fried chicken. Everything was very fresh and flavorful and the Namtok may be the best I've had - the pork itself had a lot of flavor and was a great texture. The cat-shaped rice was a sweet surprise, too. Great value for the area and I will definitely be back to try more things. The service was lovely too, the owner is there and involved, and the atmosphere inside also surprisingly comfortable with lots of greenery out the window and stylish but classic rattan furniture....
