Some people say breakfast is the most important meal of the day. In Thailand it is usually a jok (rice porridge) or rice soup.

So you could start your day with a jok or eggs and a baguette. Usually any food that Thais don’t eat costs a bit more than a typical Thai dish. If you look around though, you can find good prices on your first meal of the day. Here is a place you can start your day at in Chiang Mai and eat a good breakfast at a bargain price.

Joke โจ๊ก

If there’s one food that immediately pops into my mind as a Thai breakfast, it’s the thick rice porridge known as Joke.

Joke is made of short grain rice that is boiled until it turns into a thick oatmeal like porridge. It is served piping hot with an egg cracked in the middle, some pieces of pork for flavoring, and garnished with slices of ginger and parsley.

Khao Tom ข้าวต้ม

Khao Tom is the cousin of joke, but instead of short grain rice, normal long grain Thai rice is used. The grains are boiled in lots of water until they are soft and floating in a ricey soup.

Khao Tom includes similar Thai breakfast toppings as Joke, pork, eggs, ginger and parsley.
