Chiang Mai’s new restaurant, The Canteen (www.fb.com/thecanteencnx), is dedicated to all things tapas.

 

Don’t expect a traditional Spanish spread here—the cuisines on offer include Middle Eastern, Italian, Indian, Thai… We’ll call it modern international. The menu’s organized into three manageable sections—vegan, vegetarian and non-vegetarian—with most dishes between B50-70. 

 

The decor is spruced-up industrial, meaning monotone graphic art, naked cement floors, a metal accordion gate, and a bar front decorated with azulejos, Spain’s signature blue-painted tiles.

 

Diners recommend the roasted broccoli with miso sesame dressing (B60), the six-hour pork shoulder ragu (B70), and the creamy baba ghanoush (grilled eggplant dip, B60).
