Besides excellent Thai and other eastern food, visitors can also enjoy Italian, French and German food. Steakhouses, sandwich bars, fast-food outlets, pubs and vegetarian restaurants offer a broad range of cuisines as well. International fare is also available in many teahouses and coffee shops.
Local culinary specialties include highly spiced Naem sausages and mildly curried Khao Soi noodles.
Many visitors enjoy a traditional Khan Toke dinner which is accompanied by a display of northern dances. Khan Toke is actually a wooden tray for carrying dishes. In a Khan Toke dinner the guests sit in groups of five or six on the floor. Many dishes include glutinous rice, Burmese and northern Thai-style curries, spiced mincemeat dishes, Chiang Mai sausage, highly seasoned sauces and dips, and crisp pork rind.
Diners eat with their hands while groups provide entertainment, performing popular Northern dances such as the graceful fingernail dance, the candle dance and the sword dance.
