Three Little Pigs Soul Kitchen

Went here with my girlfriend after needing a little break from Thai cuisine. I don 't know if we just came on a bad day, but jeez... talk about a tourist trap. The hand made chips might have been great a week or two ago, but were now too stale to eat. The tacos were sub par but passable (we come from California, so maybe our expectations for Mexican food are higher than the average customer), however not acceptable for 100 baht per. My girlfriend spent all night throwing up, which may or may not have been due to her fish taco, as we ate a lot of things that day... but according to her it definitely didn 't make her feel all that great. And to top it off, I honestly don 't know how they screwed up Mac Cheese this bad. We would have much rather just had cold Kraft mac... not the lukewarm concoction they handed us for 150 baht. We couldn 't touch it. The thing is, neither of us are picky eaters this is the first negative food review I 've ever given. I just strongly feel that if they 're going to charge this high of prices relative to the surrounding restaurants, whoever owns this place needs to do a serious revaluation of the food quality the cooks are outputting.

The pulled pork sandwich and the ribs are really good. The woman tried the cookies and Gravy and was not impressed. Our friend loved the Mexican food, but he's mischievous, so he probably doesn't know a good Mexican. They make their own pickles and they are fantastic. Cheap prices, generous portions and delicious. Our new favorite place for western food in Chiang Mai.

I love the atmosphere here. Staff spoke great English. The menus were funny and the decorations felt like in the south. The food was perfect, just like my family. After I lived in Thailand for a year, it was as if I had been transported back home for a few hours while I was eating here. I recommend it to everyone, especially if you feel a little homesick. Great comfort food!

Gumbo was an extreme disappointment, and its accompanying biscuit was an aged roll from the grocery store, told by staff it 's microwaved to inedible state. Burrito was okay, but the tortillas shows age as out of the kitchen it was already broken open and flaking apart. Questionable place seeming on its last legs. Asked for owner to adjust the outrageous 295 baht for the bland and lifeless bowl of rice gravy trying to pass for gumbo, to be told management isn 't available, so nothing can be done. Over paid. Under delivered. If you want southwestern food, try Salsa Kitchen if you 're considering southern soul food....just do your self a favor and don 't get it here.

A friend and I enjoy the South U.S. cooking and decided to give this place an attempt. I ordered the Gumbo with low expectations (I am from South Louisiana, but was more than pleasantly surprised. It's better than some of the gumbo I've been hunting. As it turns out, the recipe is from the owner's father who lived in NOLA for 15 years. It is chicken and shrimp with a link pork sausage above. It came with corn bread and two sides. The green beans with mushrooms and the roasted Okra were also delicious. The whole plate needed salt, but I'm happy to add. We also had a glass of plastered Okra on the table. All right. To round it off, the sweet tea is legit and comes with free refills. We met Jack, the owner, on the way out. It was his father's place. We are sorry to hear that his father passed last year, but the hope that Jack keeps this place alive for those of us who go through Chiang Mai and need a taste of home. We went with happy stomachs and big smiles!
