Chiang Mai is for travelers with adventurous palates, who don’t mind roaming beyond the usual Thai standards in search of stunning flavors. In the cultural capital of northern Thailand, Lanna cooking rules the roost, drawing on centuries-old traditions carried across the border from Burma and Laos.
