Guest Astrrro Posted March 2, 2009 Posted March 2, 2009 I'm not a foodie but I know fantastic food when I taste it. Go to Chez Marco, next door to the Raming Lodge in Chiang Mai. You won't be disappointed. Not quite sure how Chef Marco is able to operate. I thought restaurants needed to hire Thais as cooks? Quote
Gaybutton Posted March 2, 2009 Posted March 2, 2009 You might want to have a look at this link: http://www.chiangmaichimes.com/restaurants...chiang-mai.html I also found the following review: _____ Chez Marco Lovers of French and Mediterranean food are in for a treat at this laid back new bistro and wine bar on Loi Kroh Road. Charming French-Japanese owner Marco cooks up a storm of what he calls 'soul food' a selection of home-cooked Southern French specialties and Continental fusion fare, from tangy tapenades, cheesy bruschette and other light bites to more substantial pastas and steak dishes. Indulge in a feast of stuffed roast vegetables and goat cheese salad, followed by pan-fried chicken steak with creamy mushroom sauce or traditional lasagna al forno, or satisfy your sweet tooth with luscious chocolate mousse and créme caramel. Wash everything down with a glass of full-bodied red or crisp white wine Marco stocks a very decent selection of French, Chilean and Argentine vintages from exclusive importer, Wine Connection. Prices are reasonable and service is friendly, making this a great city snack stop-off. Open 2 p.m. - 1 a.m. daily 15/7 Loi Kroh Road Tel: 053 207032, Email: marcolejap@hotmail.com Quote
KhorTose Posted March 2, 2009 Posted March 2, 2009 Astrroo, you are going to find that Chiang Mai has hundreds of very good restaurants with all kinds of food. I am glad you enjoyed Chez Marco. Here is a review of the restaurant by a friend of mine, published last year at this time in Chiang Mai Mail. Back issues on line can show you all kinds of great places to eat. Darn you, I( wish I was in Cm right at this moment. Lucky guy....... http://www.chiangmai-mail.com/257/dining.shtml Quote
