👍👍 How delightful and rare it is to find a darling wine bar in Thailand. A hidden gem of Chiang Mai - I just wish it was in Bangkok. The service is perfect, the wine options abound and sweet Sophia the Beagle loves a belly rub and a dulcet snore. You must.

Bakery
👍👍 This bakery is self service, where you grab a plate and load it up with the pastries that catch your fancy. I got the Croissant pudding (฿155) which is actually more of a bread and butter pudding. But it comes with a top that has the flaky croissant. The Cream cheese garlic bread (฿75) was very good...

Bar
👍👍 If I hadn’t read previous reviews, I wouldn’t have stopped here. From the outside, it reads: ‘commercial tiki day bar.’ I got there a little before sunset on Friday and the vibes are just immaculate.
