Restaurants in Khao Yai with atmosphere, from vineyards to the night market
Khao Yai is both wine country and farm country, so meals here are part of the trip.
The joy of eating in Khao Yai is local produce: milk and beef from the farms, vegetables from nearby plots and wine from the valley’s vineyards. We group restaurants into three kinds of occasion.
