We continue to discover new things around Chiang Mai. An old favorite curry house nearby has been converted to an upscale bakery called Forest Bake. The pastries are pretty and artfully displayed!

So far, we’ve resisted trying a cherry-topped roll or a slice of pecan tart. The daughter of the owner has created a slick online social media presence and the small shop is constantly busy.

While tempted, instead we opted for a lunch of Katsu Curry at a nearby outdoor eatery called Ton Wah.

The delicious curry was topped with panko-coated chicken and nicely spiced with cumin, coriander, turmeric, cinnamon, cloves and more.

Today we both attended yoga and the class was filled to capacity. It’s a mix of youngsters and oldsters at all levels of experience. We find the classes to be challenging in a good way.

Last night for a little adventure, we test-rode the newest transportation option in Chiang Mai–a city bus! It cost us 75 cents each for a ride to the Central Festival Mall. The bus is sleek but depending on traffic, perhaps not the quickest way to go. Still, it’s a nice, new option.

So…that’s the news from around town! Hoping all is well with you!
