Anusarn Market Food & Walking Street – Chiang Mai, Thailand

Chiang Mai, Thailand

Alright I’m gonna embark on writing on food and a little on shopping in Chiang Mai (CM). I was in CM last Dec together with my charity group, Care Givers Group, for our annual charity trip in Pai. Hence CM was a transit place for us where we buy loads of goodies and supplies for the school that we were donating to. So when we arrived on the first day, after our chores of buying and packing for the kids, naturally we had to look for food. And just next door to the hotel, Royal Lanna Hotel (http://wp.me/p2BhOI-5f) we were staying is the Anusarn Market, linked to the night bazaar of CM. See the pics below for the foods that we tried!

You choose the flavor you like and toppings, they will pour on this freezer pan and then scrap it like burnt omelette on an oiless stainless steel pan.

And then put into a cup and loads of sinful whipped cream and chocolate sauce. Notice the rolls of ice cream below.
