    Khao Soy Maesai...in my humble opinion!
    If I had one week to live, I'd eat there once a day until I keeled over! I prefer the authentic mouth feel and taste, of course.
    It's been over three years, and my mouth is still watering!

    Khao Soi Khun Yai is my No1.
    I prefer chicken off-the bone and these ladies prepare the meat really nicely (no gristle or any fatty bits). And the broth is the best I've ever had. (and I've eaten at many Khao Soi places in and around Chiang Mai). I've found Khao Soi Khun Yai is 100% consistent too - they've been making this adopted Northern Thai dish (origins from China and Burma) many, many years there.
    The ladies there are lovely at Khao Soi Khun Yai too. They always give me a warm welcome and treat me like a local (When I'm in CM I do tend to visit and eat there 3-4 days a week though!)
    Only problem I have with Khao Soi Khun Yai is that it is too popular (probably due to 5 stars on TripAdviser and the fact they only open for 4 hours a day). I've turned up quite a few times and had to wait around for a seat.
    I do sometime go to Khao Soi Mai Sai (my 2nd favourite) as I often stay in Santitham, but I try to get there early (or late) to avoid the hoards.
    Khao Soi Nimman doesn't taste authentic to me and is 'Nimmanly-priced' - so why pay more when you can eat better for cheaper.
    Just my take on this amazing dish.
    PS: I take Lobo sachets of Khao Soi back to England with me (from Tops Supermarket in Chaing Mai). I make the Khao Soi up in a slow cooker. Its not the best, but it is pretty good when you can't get the real thing!

    My favorite Khao Soi in Chiang Mai isn’t even on Google Maps. There’s a restaurant in the same location on Google Maps, but it doesn’t really exist. The location is near Kalm Village. Walk across the street and go around the corner to a blue building/opening and ask for Khao Soi. The noodles are a bit thicker than those I tried, like Khao Soi Khun Yai. 50-60 Baht depending on the meat you order

Also I discovered a place called Nice Moo Satay on Changklan Road across from the Astra Condo that is easily as good as any of the “famous” Khao Soi spots. In Chiang Rai check out Khao Soi Por Jai on Jet Yod Road. Nice vid! Thanks for the two new suggestions for my Khao Soi tasting tour!!!

    Hello Paddy, greetings from British Columbia, Canada. Firstly, I've thoroughly enjoyed your travel adventures now for about 2-years. I've noticed something that I'm sure you are aware of. Before this clip, I went back to the time you were travelling all the provinces in Thailand on Dreamy, touring through Lopburi. What I've seen is that your subscriber numbers are about the same today as they were back then, @ 135K. Other vloggers I follow have added 100k subscriptions in the same time. Perhaps just a subtle nudge is all it would take just to ask those who visit your channel at the start of your clip to 'like & subscribe', and to hit the notifications bell if they liked your content. And, from my perspective, why wouldn't they like your content?! Just a suggestion, Paddy. Above all, just keep doing what you're doing... I love your work 👍

    Hi Paddy, we're taking the night train to Chiang Mai Saturday from BKK...please, don't eat all the Khao soi! Leave some for us! All the way from Cape Town, have a heart! Maybe we get lucky and bump into our favourite UA-camr! Jaco and Louise.

    Paddy. I am trying to find one of your videos. A hidden forest that you can only get to via a cave entrance. You showed us in one of your videos. It was a forest area that is surrounded by rock cliffs. Please help. Love your videos.

    For me the best place for Khao Soi is Khao Soi Mae Sai, 3 minutes from home.
