Susie sources ingredients from nearby farmers, keeping money in the local economy and supporting her farming neighbours.

Susie grows her own herbs and veg and buys local produce, cutting down food miles and creating low-impact seasonal menus.

A whirlwind of smiles, cool artisan spots, recovering elephants and beaches straight out of your dreams.

<p>Susie Suwaree brings over two decades of kitchen know-how to her cosy chef’s table in Chiang Mai. After years as an executive chef in a top hotel, she turned her own home into a warm and welcoming dining space. Housed in a Mexican-style setting, guests are treated to an intimate evening filled with creative dishes that mix Thai roots with global touches. What sets Susie apart is her hands-on approach — she grows many of her herbs and veggies in her garden and shops directly from local farmers. It’s relaxed, thoughtful dining with a personal touch. People don’t just eat here — they connect, learn, and leave with full hearts as well as full plates.</p>
