Dating veganism as a trend was like that last year. It’s now a legitimate lifestyle choice, thanks to advocates who tirelessly suggest that a meat-free, plant-based diet is good for your health and the environment. (Did you know that livestock is responsible for 18% of greenhouse gas emissions or that the main cause of rainforest destruction is livestock and forage crops?*) So this bodes well for more and more plant-based farms emerging. In the city. We’ve rounded up the best vegan and vegetarian restaurants and vegan delivery options in town, from creative vegan restaurants to a raw food cafe and a shop selling plant-based cheese.
Whether you’re a full-time vegan, a dieter, or anything in between, none of these places will make you want to order meat.
Restaurants in Bangkok
Vistro:
Vistro has filled a void that seemed missing in the city’s herbivore scene, offering the most creative twists on the typical vegan fare. The vegan dishes here are so tasty a carnivore might even consider going after a meal completely to go vegan. The two-story house is spacious, full of plants and considerable in size. The first floor is perfect for small healthy snacks and drinks on the go, while the second floor serves all creative dishes. Don’t miss the Vistro Dumplings, a delicious snack filled with Taiwanese chili oil and gyoza sauce, and the Habibi Wrap, which stuffs marinated “chicken,” iceberg lettuce, red cabbage, and peppers into a soft wheat tortilla. End your meal with a gooey brownie with a scoop of vegan ice cream. Their homemade kombucha and healthy lattes are also a must.
Broccoli revolution:
Broccoli Revolution is leading the charge against the earthy, crunchy reputation usually associated with meatless restaurants, as seen in its always-full restaurants in Thonglor, Central Embassy and Charoenkrung. Their plant-based vegan menu comprises hearty salads, cashew cheese sandwiches, Thai dishes with a modern vegan twist, and a best-selling broccoli quinoa burger sandwiched between charcoal buns. You better stay for dessert. They are provided by small bakeries and vendors like Theera, a social practice that works with children with special needs.
Veganerrie:
With three outlets in malls and an independent restaurant on Sukhumvit 24, Veganerie is one of Bangkok’s major vegan players, producing delicious meals perfect for breakfast, such as massaman curries and vegan “pull pork”- Citizens. The soy and coconut-based ice cream, desserts and milkshakes are just as impressive as their savory counterparts – we highly recommend trying the soy banoffee waffles and chocolate mousse cake.
Rasayana Raw Food Cafe:
At Rasayana, there is a raw food solution for every craving. Pasta? Give it a try in the form of chewy and filling zucchini noodles topped with a fresh and flavorful marinara sauce. Pizza? Oh yes.
The mushroom pizza has a base of flaxseed and mushrooms and is topped with sauce and vegetables. But one of the tastiest main courses is the nut bread made with almonds, fresh vegetables, herbs and spices. After-meal treats should be addressed. Try the lemon tart, a joy based on macadamia, lime and coconut, or the banoffee tart with walnuts, dates, banana and cocoa. Could you not say we didn’t warn you?
May Veggie home:
Unlike New Wave haunts for herbivores, this spot for seasoned Asoke doesn’t attempt to wrap the tofu and meat substitutes in elaborate disguises. Instead, May Veggie Home makes a virtue of modest ambition with vegan versions of old-school Thai and Western comfort food. Mock meat dishes such as yum tuna foo (crispy vegetarian tuna with sweet and sour mango dressing) and vegetarian tonkatsu are convincing, but above all, purely vegetarian dishes, bean burgers and mieng bai cha (tea leaf salad with crispy beans and herbs in an exclusive dressing). , have a little more superiority. Remember to try the rice milkshakes.
