Classic American comfort food is all the rage in Bangkok and now there's a cool but cozy new spot to get your fill in Chiang Mai.

The Corner Bistro (8/8  Ratchaphuek Alley, 096-497-6755, www.cornerbistrochiangmai.com) serves dishes like triple-fried fries (B60), juicy macreause steak (B350) and lasagne (B180) in a pared-back, wood-dominated setting.

Run by a Thai and American duo, the restaurant claims to use only local and seasonal ingredients from the likes of the Royal Projects. 

The restaurant is open every day from 7am-3pm for breakfast and lunch and 5pm-midnight for dinner.
