Ever think you’d find your own quiet little Parisian garden right in the middle of bustling Chiang Mai? Well, here it is. Nakara Jardin, the Ping Nakara Hotel’s long-awaited French patisserie and café, has finally arrived. Located right next to the Ping River – no judgment here if you want to pretend it’s the Seine – this tranquil sanctuary is awash with flowering trees, white cast-iron bistro tables, a charming gazebo, and a fountain that looks like it was plucked straight from one of the King Louis’s gardens. Settle down on the shady terrace for a French feast of lemon crab pasta or foie gras ravioli with truffle cream, or nibble on some lighter fare, including soups, salads, breads, and a mouth-watering selection of homemade cakes and crepes. Nakara Jardin is open for breakfast, brunch, and lunch, and provides the perfect location for hosting a special event or simply enjoying an afternoon tea on the terrace. Bon appétit!
