This is probably the consistently best Thai restaurant in Maha Sarakham. It serves a wide range of Thai food, include traditional dishes from both central region and Isaan. The furnishings, ambience and decor are above average for this city and service is good. It is located near the city centre but has a large car park.
Favorite Dish: Penang Gai (spicey southern-style chicken curry)

This is the best Thai-style steakhouse in the city. It is a more up-market establishment than the more student-oriented places like Boom Steak. The menu contains exotic menu items like Ostrich steak as well as the stable items. There is a good range of alcoholic drinks. If you like your french fries be sure to order an extra side dish, as the basic portions are very small to the Western eye.
Favorite Dish: Chicken steak. Served with a good side salad and fries.

If you cannot do without your French fries, and want a change from the KFC in Serm Thai, you can try this steakhouse on the Khamrieng Road adjoining the new campus of Mahasarakham University. This is a simple but clean restaurant, with a choice of outside tables overlooking the passing traffic or an air conditioned room inside. The menu includes beef, pork, fish and burgers. Prices are reasonable and beer is available. Unfortunately the nearby Monkey Steak, which once offered a very good lunch buffet has now closed.
Favorite Dish: Fish and chips. Not quite the authentic item, but as near as you can get in Maha Sarakham - and at a bargain price.

Our hosts provided a "picnic" for us near the Ban I San Museum. It came wrapped in wax paper tied with a string -- a simple solution to the portability problem in a rural area!
Favorite Dish: Mine was spicy chicken with basil, one of the few spicy options available. It was very tasty. Our hosts had a hard time believing that many of us LIKED the really spicy Thai food!
