If you're one of us (I'm obsessed) who love these bowls full of colorful healthy natural ingredients, this place is totally for you.
I wouldn't say this is a typical breakfast we have here in Thailand. We're more heavy on rice, noodle and all carbs. Though, as you may know, Chiang Mai is a digital nomads hub and sometimes, rice and noodle for breakfast just doesn't sound right for some so there are load tons of other types of breakfast offered here. My favorite one so far gotta be the smoothie bowls! Light, yummy, refreshing and yes, really healthy! Totally a great way to start the day.
Khun Khae's Juice & Smoothie Bar
One of the go-tos smoothie and juice places. I found out about this place when trying to look for a smoothie bowl places and this was one of the most top rated. Then, later found out that a few of my friends who have been living here in Chiang Mai just love this place and always go there for breakfast too. It must be that good!
Khun Khae's Juice & Smoothie Bar offer a good range of healthy fruit, veggies and all things related to those. Luckily, we've been there often enough to try all their things and I have them all photos captured and shared them with you here!
First of all, smoothie & smoothie bowl! (THB 90 - 140)
There are a few combinations that they pre-designed already but you can always mix and match what you like and have them make it. All bowls seem to have banana as part of the base to make it smooth.. topped with many kinds of fruits like, dragon fruits, banana, avocado, oats, mangos, papaya and so on. Fruits change according to what they have in store that day so it doesn't get too repetitive if you go every so often.
Cold pressed Juices (THB 50 / 200ml.)
Love it when they already came up with a few recipes and even let you know which recipe can fix or help about what. Like this one I ordered, helps to have a better skin. I know it's not going to give the result with one drink but still, good to know that at least it gives such benefits. Other than the skin, they have the recipes for digestion, headache, cold and so on..
Other than cold pressed juices, there are also shots which I have never actually tried just yet. It's more of 'green shots' like, wheat grass, celery, kale and that sort of stuff. I heard some people are into it...
Fruit plate (THB 50 ++)
If you're not ready for a full load of smoothie topped with fruits (they're really big bowls!), there's also this option. Seasonal fruits and then add extra yogurt, coconut yogurt or granola the way you'd like. I ordered this once. It was pretty good but perhaps I prefer some cold fruits & smoothies more when it comes to this type of place.
Veggie Salad! (THB 60)
This one is like a in-n-out secret menu.. not really, it's there on the table at all time! We just never realized it existed until we do. Same types of veggies but can choose dressings. Can also add as many eggs as you'd like for some more protein.
Besides the food, I also love the chill vibes and how simple the set up is. All the post-it with people saying random stuff posted on the walls. A bit of motion from the small road in front. People chit chatting with their morning faces.
Prices are also real affordable considered the portion and the quality they give.
These are probably all the reasons we keep coming back again and again for some more Khun Khae's Juice and bowls. Totally recommend this place if you end up in Chiang Mai someday. Real guc!!
