“กินข้าวให้อร่อยนะ” (Gin kâao hâi à-ròi ná) – This means “Enjoy your meal” or “Hope your meal is delicious.”

•	ให้อร่อย (hâi à-ròi) – means “to be delicious” or “to taste good.”
•	นะ (ná) – a particle added to make it sound friendly and polite.

Alternatively, a shorter and more casual version is simply “อร่อยนะ” (à-ròi ná), meaning “Delicious, right?” or as encouragement for a tasty meal.

This phrase is less formal than “Bon appétit” but is widely used in a friendly, informal way.
