vegan food in on nut bkk

[parafareno]

Any idea if any locals sell vegan food in this area....i saw many vegan local sellers in other parts of bkk.....but not sure about on nut.....

[VocalNeal]

Two . One to change it, the other to tell us they are both vegan.

 

I'm going to assume there is one near Cheep Charlie's. Seems the kind of place.

Not sure what the poster above is talking about.

 

There's a stall called "So Vegan" in Century Plaza, below BTS On Nut.

 

There is also another branch (or at least an affiliated restaurant) at the Phyll mall at Sukhumvit Soi 54.

i stayed in ramkhamhaeng market before and it was this guy with stall who has wonder ful vegan food each day....it was amazing....fake meat etc...soups

 

i hope in on nut there is something similar.....so you say under the on nut bts station where the hair saloonw and market previous were, there is a vegan stall?

Yes, it's new. It's where the market used to be, at the corner of Soi 81. The vegan stall is in the basement level in front of the Tops Supermarket.

In addition to the 2 Tyler mentioned...there are (or were anyway) 2 "Jey" food stalls (among the many others) in On Nut Market  directly across from Big C. The market is just behind the stores on On Nut Soi 1.

Yes new...less than 2 years. Bottom floor in the middle between Topps and Power Buy is "So Vegan". Big place...bright yellow...can't miss it. 

 

You need to get the Happy Cow app. For a vegan it is essential and pretty awesome! Also Trip Advisor.

It's pretty popular, many Thais buy from there (often for take home) and I highly doubt they're vegan. I eat there too regularly if the selection is right and I'm also not vegan. Good value, 60 baht for three dishes on top of brown rice.

vegan food, lol

 

cooked with soy bean oil or other rancid fat they hardly change as in the west

 

because new oil every day = less profit

 

don't forget you are in the land of scams, greed and fake smiles

 

cook yourself

I'm not in LOS right now, is it still "Buddhist Lent" time?  (Sorry, can't recall Thai name, or is it only in the south of the country?)

At that time of year vegetarian pop-up cafes restaurants appear, usually run by professional vegetarian cooks.  Gotta keep an eye out for them, and they will be gone by Loy Krathong.  Amazing what they do to simulate the textures of meat.  Probably not vegan, though.

It's nationwide, though the vegetarian festival finished on 7th October. End of Buddhist Lent (ork pansa) was on 13th.

I was just waling there today and did not find it....

The best vegan place was in Ramkhamhaeng market...where one dude and his wife were selling vegan stuff, fake meats, tofu etc....

What abut 7/11 I could not find many vegan stuff, even fruit juice 100% i could not find......

Yes...they don't use Nam pla, but rather soi sauce. The only thing some of the veg shops use is egg, but that is easily spotted in the dishes before choosing and you can tell them 'mai sai kai'. The veg shop in the food court, 5th floor Terminal 21 sometimes has 1 or 2 dishes w/egg. ????

Haven't been in there for a couple months, but was there then. No way it could be missed, so from what you say, guess they've closed.

I was there an hour ago, and yes, it's still there. I agree with the poster above -- it cannot be missed. Go down the basement level, and it's right in front of Tops Market. There isn't a lot else down there, so it is easy to find.

I'm not a huge fan of the food at So Vegan, but the chain is run by a very nice Thai family who also run some other nearby vegan options (such as the one at the Phyll shopping center at Sukhumvit 54) and who don't have any record of scamming or poisoning anyone. The So Vegan branch at Century Plaza has (or had) a sign saying they cook with rice bran oil.

I have to take note of the suggestions here since I always travel with my vegan friend.

I'm surprised no one mentioned Nourish Cafe on soi 50. They have an entirely vegan menu with some great-tasting options. I found them through FoodPanda.
