Good buffet and a la carte - Edit
Buffet and pictures on the wall type place with delicious food and an incredible amount of choice. We were not able to spot any type of egg or Dairy, so not sure sure what makes it non -vegan

So good and so cheap - Edit
Most entree dishes are 60 baht, and small bites are 20-40 baht. Super welcoming staff. Great spot to eat a bunch after hiking doi suthep if you exit near CMU

I got some pumpkins and some rice with other veggies for 50 Baht. Everything was tasty. The place is entirely vegetarian and has vegan things!

The food was very good, but the staff was excellent! - Edit
Great little, cheap, Jae/vegan shop with some delicious options. Nothing fancy, but everything you need and want in a local Thai restaurant. Right next to the university. Great food. Nice venue with several tables for small groups. The highlight, however, was the server who was very welcoming, accommodating and provided info about each dish. Would definitely go back again! 💯

One of The Best Thai-Vegetarian places in Town - Edit
I absolutely love this place, even if you arrive late and want to eat the buffet-style food in my experience it all tastes good even at room-temperature. You can also order a soup or item off the wall to be made fresh, the only warning being don't get two fried meat-replacement dishes at once, as they can be a little on the drier side, albeit super tasty and good. I just prefer some vegetables/wetness in my meals.
Read moreWhile I love lots of Pepper-flavor, if you aren't used to it or don't like it you may not like this place very much, as they often use a lot of pepper, and most of their dishes will get your sinuses going a little, although most wouldn't cause a spicy "burn" type of feeling.
Other than that, really try one of their soups, I'd say this place has the best soups I've had in my life, they even have non-rice noodles that are also vegan you can have. For those they use a ramen-type of wet noodle.
As another reviewer mentioned, the owners don't speak much English at all, nor do the other workers there, but things are clearly label'd, pointing, and smiles and nods serve just fine.
I have never encountered egg-tofu here, and each time I've gotten the "buffet" dishes they've always said they were all vegan, but you can always ask to be extra-sure.
Pros: Best Soups & Fake Meat In Chiang Mai, Good Value/Portions, Absolutely Everything is Delicious
Cons: Uses a lot of Pepper (Positive for some, incl. me), Closed all Weekend, Mostly fake-meat/tofu on buffet (rarely has stews)

Simple, yummy affordable! - Edit
Nice simple Thai jay place. Each dish here is only 30-40 baht. I got a vegan egg noodle soup with tofu, vegan pork and ginger over rice and a mock meat snack and it came to 85 baht total. About 75% of the dishes are vegan and clearly labeled. Owner doesn’t speak much English but knows “vegan” and “vegetarian”. Food tasted fresh and you get a free little bowl of soup with your meal.
