Good spread of vegetarian food - Edit
Went there to get some comforting vegetarian food and was not disappointed. If anyone who wants to enjoy some vegetarian Indian cuisine, this is the place to go. This is coming from a person who has vegetarian all his life.

Clearly marked veg options - Edit
The menu has a lot of options and clearly marked between vegan, veg and non-veg. The dosa are great and they have a lot of dishes not available elsewhere.

Only S Indian restaurant in CM! - Edit
Great to finally have Keralan food in Chiang Mai! Lots of choice for vegetarians and vegans. All the usual favourites - curries, dosas, vadas, even string hoppers!
Read moreNow offering a Keralan Thali with unlimited refills for 399 baht every Weds - must book in advance.
Further updated their menu with Pan Indian foods, including unusual dishes not seen elsewhere in Chiang Mai. The Kati roll is really good!

Disappointing - Edit
Curd rice was a little spoilt, old idlis given which were very hard and slightly stale.
Read moreChutneys also tasted fermented and spoilt.
Tomato rice and Lemon Rice not like Indian food at all, very very oily beyond belief.
One star only because the Sambar was good.

South Indian - Edit
I was really excited to try Chai N Thai as South Indian is quite rare in Chiang Mai, at least in a vegan version. I tried a masala dosa which I haven't had in ages and I was a bit disappointed that the potatoes stuffed inside were lacking in both flavour and volume. I also tried an idly which was just OK and I tried a curry which was quite good.
Read moreIn general I was a little disappointed but maybe my expectations were a bit too high as I have had very good food from this region previously.
Also, the green sauce that is served with vegan dishes is apparently not vegan, it is made with dairy. At first they told us it was made from coconut it wasn't until we persisted with our questioning that we were informed that it does actually contain dairy. The tamarind chutney they swapped it for was good though.
The menu does not distinguish between vegetarian and vegan and due to the green sauce incident I am concerned that they aren't fully aware of the difference.
This said I would go back again to try other dishes but I'd probably stick to the northern curries.

Pros: Unique cuisine for Chiang Mai
Cons: Menu doesn't list vegan dishes, Portion sizes could be bigger
