Fodor's Expert Review Lan Na Thai

This hangout attracts a cool, mainly international clientele. The reasonably authentic Thai lineup includes the ubiquitous green papaya salad, steamed freshwater prawns, and duck with Kaffir lime leaf. More exciting are dishes such as the sea bass wrapped in a banana leaf and the pork belly made with Chiang Mai–style curry paste. The decor—plush comfortable seating, large tapestries—and toned-down dishes are geared to foreigners, but sometimes that's just the ticket after a long day of exploring.
