May Kaidees ('kai dees' translates as 'good sell', so I am informed) is located near the 'Ethos' vegetarian restaurant (WMA36D). So, when you reach this small street, you will have a choice of two top vegetarian restaurants (note, there is a 3rd restaurant which advertises with a sign claiming: 'Thai and Vegetarian', however, a quick perusal of this menu will show very little vegetarian. I suspect this restaurant is attempting to entice in vegetarians looking for a veg restaurant (capitalism !) ).

May Kaidees is Thai owned and concentrates on vegetarian versions of Thai dishes. By good fortune I visited on a Saturday night, when there is a buffet for 120 Baht (~us$4), plus drinks. As I had not eaten for 12 hours, and had no good vegetarian food for several days I indulged. It was all very good. (I also tipped to a total of 200 baht, generous guy that I am). The brown rice was steamed to perfection, and a cup of organic Korat (a region in north, central Thailand) coffee was just how I liked my coffee—strong and bitter. After several deserts, I walked contentedly back to my hotel.

The menu (in the gallery) is not overly large, but has a sufficient range of options. Recommended. Cooking lessons are also available.

There is a #2 May Kaidees approximately 1km north. There now also seems to be a breakfast 'nook', small restaurant, an offshoot of #3, opposite the Ethos restaurant, ummm.
