Taste the pork blood soup at Moo Jing Ju Chai in Chiang Rai, a must-try once in your life!
When talking about Chiang Rai, besides the striking white Wat Rong Khun and the peaceful northern atmosphere, food is something mr.hotsia never misses, especially the “Moo Jing Ju Chai Pork Blood Soup Chiang Rai” which is famously delicious and worth sharing.
The last time I traveled to Chiang Rai, I stayed near the Chiang Rai Clock Tower at Suknirand Hotel, which is affordable. Just a few steps away, I found this pork blood soup shop located in a small alley that looks unremarkable, but its taste is extraordinary.
Ambiance and Getting There
Moo Jing Ju Chai Pork Blood Soup shop is not far from main attractions like the Clock Tower and Chiang Rai Morning Market. It’s just a 5-minute walk from Suknirand Hotel. I like the simplicity of the shop that feels like eating at a local’s home. It doesn’t look like a touristy place but has warmth and friendliness.
The menu here is basic but full of quality, with a broth fragrant with Chinese herbs and spices simmered to a mellow flavor. Served with large pork pieces and fresh pork blood, along with Jing Ju Chai, a local Chiang Rai vegetable that perfectly cuts the richness.
Taste and Impressions from mr.hotsia
I remember the taste of the pork blood soup here well. The broth is thick but not too salty or sweet. The aroma of fried garlic and a hint of pepper adds dimension to this bowl. The pork pieces are tender but not mushy, with a perfect chewiness. The pork blood is very fresh with no off-flavors. The Jing Ju Chai vegetable adds freshness and crunch that balances the softness of the pork and blood perfectly.
For me, eating Moo Jing Ju Chai Pork Blood Soup in Chiang Rai is not just about refueling but experiencing the authentic taste of Chiang Rai through a small dish that hides meticulous care and true love for local food.
Highly Recommended When Visiting Chiang Rai
For those planning to stay in downtown Chiang Rai, I recommend choosing accommodation near the Clock Tower such asSuknirand Hotelor other hotels nearby for convenience in traveling and dining. Night outings are easy because it’s close toSaturday Walking Street “Kad Chiang Rai Ram Luek”which offers a wide variety of local food and products.
After eating pork blood soup, I also enjoyed a stroll around the Clock Tower at night. If you visit between 7 PM and 9 PM, you can see an impressive light and sound show.Chiang Rai Clock TowerDesigned by Ajarn Chalermchai Kositpipat, the creator of Wat Rong Khun, the famous white temple.
Connected to other travel spots and attractions in Chiang Rai.
If you have more than two or three days in Chiang Rai, I recommend driving up toDoi Changto experience coffee plantations and the charming hill tribe atmosphere, or visit to pay respects atWat Rong Khunwhich features modern and beautiful architecture, perfect for memorable photos.
If you also like northern food, don’t forget to try the famous stewed beef basil or the unique San Khi Bao duck noodles, which I have detailed in previous articles.
