Chiang Mai Superstar

Don’t leave Chiang Mai Superstar without sampling this 😎

Allow us to introduce one of Northern Thailand’s most popular dishes.

Sai Ua is a grilled pork sausage made with Thai herbs like galangal, lemongrass, kaffir lime, and Thai chili; and red curry paste — all coming together to give it that herby, zesty, spicy, savory flavor.

Some common companions to this dish: sticky rice, naam phrik num (green chile dip) for that added heat kick, and khaep muu (pig skin, or chicharon as we know it).

Add it to your must-orders on your next visit!

You’re looking at your hump day remedy 😎

Exciting new dishes, a spicy drink, some great company, and of course, mango sticky rice for a sweet ending 🙌

Your new favorites are calling out to you. Come and discover them 🇹🇭🌶️

Yum! 😋

This isn’t your grandma’s chicken soup—this is Khao Soi, where rich, flavorful curry meets crispy noodles and tender chicken.

Khao Soi is an iconic Northern Thai dish whose place as a regional staple goes back centuries—it’s believed to have originated from Chinese Muslim traders who made their way through the spice route around the 18th to early 20th centuries.

It’s also simply a comfort food that will hit you with layers of irresistible flavor and keep you coming back for more. Come over and have a bowl here 😎

Meet Chef Gelo: The beating heart of Chiang Mai Superstar

Gelo’s journey is as unique as the flavors he brings to the table. Hailing from San Francisco then Manila, he’s now made Davao his home. His mission? To invite you to rediscover Thai food by way of Chiang Mai.

Much like his culinary idol, Andy Ricker of the Pok Pok restaurant empire, Gelo took the road less traveled to the kitchen. After graduating with a degree in 3D Animation, he spent years in the corporate world until he finally took the leap of faith to follow his true passion: FOOD.

Once free from the 9-to-5, Gelo bought a one-way ticket to Southeast Asia where he backpacked through Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos, Myanmar and Thailand, until making his way to Manila, where he began cooking the food from his travels. His love for Northern Thai cuisine has taken him on many life-changing trips to Thailand, where he immerses himself in the culture and food to bring authentic flavors to every dish he makes.

We can't wait to share more about our journey as we prepare to open our doors to you! Stay tuned for updates and get ready for Northern Thai food to change your life — or at least tickle your tastebuds — the way it did Chef Gelo's 🇹🇭
