This third edition of The MICHELIN Guide in Thailand boasts to showcase the country’s three unique and most vibrant regional food scenes – from the fertile central plains and the coastal south, to the mountainous north.
Mr. Segsarn Trai-Ukos, Country Director of Michelin Siam and Secretary General of Michelin East Asia and Australia, said: “Chiang Mai – Thailand’s second-largest city – is rich with cultural and culinary treasures that make this city deserving of being highlighted in The MICHELIN Guide for its distinctive local cuisine, as well as exceptional accommodation with its unique character and style.
“With Chiang Mai as an addition to Bangkok, Phuket, and Phang-Nga, this edition of The MICHELIN Guide serves as a true testimony of the regional diversity of Thai food, which varies due to the combination of climate, geography, culture, history, and ethnicities of each region. This makes Thailand an ideal and truly exciting gastro-tourism destination,”
