Always LOAF U Nimman Soi.17 (ออเวย์ โลฟ ยู นิมมานเหมินทร์ ซอย 17)

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...

Mango sticky rice 50baht

Restaurant

👍👍 Very tasty, good value, and hygienic! Despite operating out of a street stall, the ingredients are thoroughly covered/shielded and the owner uses gloves to prep the food. I also like that the takeaway box is paper (most to-go boxes I encountered in Chiang Mai were plastic).
