This shop is close to the hauptbahnof, it's actually a small thai supermarket, with 4 tables. You can choose from a 4-5 selection buffet, and then take your box away or consume it in there, if you can find a free table! it can be pretty crowded at lunch time! you can have your box with steamed rice and meat...

I work in Zurich and eat here at lunchtime twice a week on average. I have never had a bad meal here. The food is excellent and very reasonably priced. It is made by a group of Thai women working away in front of you and served by same. My only criticism is that there is too much shop and... More

A friend and I visited The Chaing Mai Thai Shop on December 30, and it continues to be one of my favorite, cheap eats in the city. Normally, there are about three or four set dishes to choose. Since we arrived a little before closing, the selection was very limited but still the food was good. The small serving was... More

There isn't really a menu at this restaurant. It is really just 4 or 5 selections and you pick a couple for your plate. As for being "authentic" Thai...it was spicy and had some flavor, but we have had better Thai elsewhere. Limited seating, so be careful if you go during lunch or dinner. More

After seeing all the good reviews in TripAdvisor, I decided to try it as it was just across the street from my hotel. The place was pretty crowded, and you had a choice of a few meals from a buffet which you can either eat there or take away. I chose the chicken and noodle, payed 15$ (which is a... More

Every weekend carry-out. Like dark sauces best on pork or fish. Superb flavors, a bit spicy. Also good fresh products to buy. More

A friend and I visited The Chiang Mai Thai shop during the Zurich Street Party. It was probably my fifth visit to the store/restaurant. Prices were 13CHF for small take away meal and 15 CHF for the larger portion. I think the prices increased slightly since my last visit, but it is still a great deal. The staff is extremely... More

Just a point on the price - it was CHF 13 for a (larger) box to take away. I got rice with one chicken dish and one prawn dish. A smaller box to takeaway would have around CHF 10. A can of ginger beer was a bargain CHF 1.80. Will definitely be back. More

There are always large queues to get food from here, and given the great price, it's no wonder. There are a range of dishes to choose from with rice or noodles and a small dragon indicates if the dish in question is spicy. You are charged extra to sit inside (and it's a shop rather than a restaurant) or if... More
