About Mon Thai Eatery

Zetland's go-to for unapologetic Northern Thai cooking trades heavy coconut sweetness for punchy regional spice and deep aromatics. Diners head to this quiet strip specifically for Chiang Mai staples like Khao Soi—creamy, tangy curry loaded with egg noodles, pickled mustard greens, and crisp fried strands on top. Kitchen passes also churn out blistered chive cakes, smoky wok-tossed noodles, and herbal sai oua pork sausages at generous proportions. It is a relaxed, unpretentious room where regulars bring their own six-packs and bottles of Riesling.

  • Northern Thai Focus: Standouts include regional staples like rich chicken Khao Soi and spiced sai oua sausages.
  • BYO Friendly: Unlicensed setup allowing guests to bring their own wine and beer without fuss.
  • Generous Plates: Big portions of noodle dishes, curries, and crisp chive cakes built for sharing.
