The original Baan Benjarong is located in Pai, Northern Thailand, and was set up by a couple keen to preserve the heritage of their regional Thai cuisine. Opening this second branch in 2017, they had to make some adjustments, such as a smaller menu and using items which are not all from the province so popular national dishes, such as Som Tum, are a feature. Staff, however, all hail from the North and have a typically friendly and relaxed attitude.
