We stayed at Sabai House located in Kumpangdin Road, Chiang Mai. As usual we walked up and down the road seeking for local food. With your back to the hotel, turn right and on the opposite side of the road is a lady who sells khao soi that is so delicious. Her stall is in front of a house. Khao soi is basically egg noodle in curry sauce with choice of pork or chicken. I was delighted when she scoop up a chicken drumstick onto my bowl. The hawker also prepared lots of raw beansprouts and slices of uncooked cabbage soaked in water for the customers to help themselves. It gave a refreshing taste to my noodles.
Opposite to the above stall is a lady that sells pad thai (fried noodles). She sells grilled meats and sausages as well. We were delighted to see she has moo ping (grilled pork on skewers). For one piece of moo ping, it costs 10 baht. Her moo ping is available only on Sundays. Catch her in the morning.
Another pad thai stall (it was open at night) is located near the hotel too. With your back to the hotel, turn right, go to the end of road, turn right again. 70baht for a large plate of shrimp pad thai.
There were few massage centres near to the hotel. We enjoyed the foot massage and Thai massage. Each cost 200 baht per person per hour.
From Sabai House, within walking distance is Mc Donald's and Tapae Gate. On Sundays, there will be a night market behind Tapae Gate. Lots of food and lots of things on sale. Tshirts going for 50 baht. Long pants at 100baht. Truly a foodies and shoppers paradise.
