The Consul's Garden — Restaurant in Chiang Mai Province

The two starts are for the garden and for the service as the staff was very friendly and helpful; however the food was extremely disappointing. I ordered the croissant trio, which has 3 different small croissants. The ham was completely dry and stiff almost like a piece of cardboard and clearly quite old. The smoked salmon had a strange dull color and looked suspicious so I just tasted a tiny piece and it both smelled and tasted off and it was obviously not fresh. I sent the food back back and the staff apologized and didn't charge for it (obviously), but this should have never been served in the first place.

One could spend half a day reading, writing, or reflecting. Ideal for alone-time, couple-time, or even families. This isn’t a place to rush. Be prepared to rest and relax here. The place...
