The Lanna-Kitchen

This regional kitchen is honest. You can taste every ingredient. Nothing is held together with some rubbery sauce. It can be mild and spicy, but - don't worry - you can determine for yourself how mild or spicy you would like to have it. Have a look how Joys family prepares their own food: That is the super-spicy version, and is only reserved for Thais.

In Joy's House, food becomes a savory experience. Ingredients are countless and rich in variety: fresh fresh-water fish, marinated fish, tiger prawns, langusten, duck, chicken, salted eggs, rice noodles, mungbean noodles, rice flour, fermented soy beans, spur chilli, dried chilli, galangal, lemon grass, kaffir lime, wild ginger, turmeric, sweet basil, bitter gourds, tamarind, etc., etc....

Look over the Cook's Shoulder

Of course you may wait for your entré, relaxing with a drink. But you may also look over the cook's shoulder. He chops, composes, sizzles, steams and seasons before your very eyes. He's happy to explain his cooking process. You don't need an extra cooking class - it's learning by looking and doing.
