<i><b>Khao soi Mae Sai</b></i> (Thai script: ข้าวซอยแม่สาย) is the name in Chiang Mai of a certain type of <i>khao soi</i> that is more common in Chiang Rai province, in the area along the border with Burma and Laos (<i>Mae Sai</i> is a border town in Chiang Rai province). It is a spicy soup-like dish containing soft, wide rice noodles, pork ribs, congealed pork blood and minced pork. Tomatoes and fermented soy bean give it its specific taste. The soup used is similar to, and often the same as, that used in <i>nam ngiao</i>. Sliced raw cabbage and bean sprouts are served on the side.
