The Northern Thai restaurant is set in one of the city’s most storied buildings.
Kiti Panit General Store opened its doors in Chiang Mai today. Serving Northern Thai food in one of Chiang Mai’s most storied buildings, the restaurant is a tribute to the rich culture and culinary heritage of the north.
Located on Tapae Road within walking distance from the city walls and Chiang Mai’s famous Night Market, Kiti Panit General Store is housed in a stunning teak tree mansion dating back to 1880. The house was Chiang Mai’s first general store and is still owned by the 5th generation of descendants from the Chinese immigrants who founded the store.
Having been uninhabited for the past 70 years, the building has undergone extensive renovations using local artists and craftsmen to restore and bring to life the original woodwork including ceilings, flooring, staircase and panels.
