In Bangkok, you&#8217;ll find <strong>Gaggan Anand<\/strong>, which offers a creative and innovative fusion menu, or <strong>Sorn<\/strong>, which focuses on authentic Southern Thai cuisine. <\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Vegan_Restaurants_in_Bangkok\"><\/span>Vegan Restaurants in Bangkok<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n<p>When we were in Bangkok, I ate vegetarian and vegan (Luky still ate meat), and I definitely had no problem. <\/p>\n\n<p>Bangkok also has a great vegan scene. I recommend visiting <strong>Veganerie Concept<\/strong>, a popular vegan cafe and restaurant located in the Sukhumvit area, offering a wide selection of dishes including waffles and smoothie bowls.  <\/p>\n\n<p>Another great choice is <strong>Broccoli Revolution<\/strong>, where you&#8217;ll find Thai classics like laab and spicy curries, as well as international dishes, including burgers and quesadillas. <\/p>\n\n<p>Personally, I love Thai food, but if you want a break from it, try Italian cuisine at <strong>Govinda Vegan Restaurant<\/strong>, which offers vegan versions of pasta and pizza.<\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/nejlepsi-restuarace-3.jpg\" alt=\"What I&#039;ll always miss are their coconuts\" class=\"wp-image-88084\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/nejlepsi-restuarace-3.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/nejlepsi-restuarace-3-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/nejlepsi-restuarace-3-700x467.jpg 700w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/nejlepsi-restuarace-3-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/nejlepsi-restuarace-3-696x464.jpg 696w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">What I&#8217;ll always miss are their coconuts<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n<p>If you&#8217;re craving Thai food in a pleasant atmosphere, visit <strong>Mango Vegetarian  Vegan Restaurant and Arts Gallery<\/strong> in the Old Bangkok area, where they also had a great selection of fresh juices and kombucha. <\/p>\n\n<p>Another great option is <strong>The Vegan Table<\/strong>, which offers both Thai and Western dishes and great cocktails during happy hour. For a more affordable option, try <strong>So Vegan<\/strong> or the food stalls in shopping malls like <strong>Terminal 21<\/strong> or <strong>Siam Paragon<\/strong>, where you can get a vegan lunch for a few bucks.  <\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"FAQ\"><\/span>FAQ<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<div id=\"rank-math-faq\" class=\"rank-math-block\">\n<div class=\"rank-math-list \">\n<div id=\"faq-question-1728901777114\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Where_is_the_best_view_of_Bangkok\"><\/span>Where is the best view of Bangkok?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>Great views can be had from the Golden Mount and the Mahanakhon skyscraper. <\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-question-1728902007636\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Where_to_go_shopping_in_Bangkok\"><\/span>Where to go shopping in Bangkok?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>Go to Chatuchak Weekend Market on the weekend; it&#8217;s one <strong>of the largest outdoor markets in the world, with over 15,000 stalls spread across 35 acres.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-question-1728906501482\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_long_to_visit_Bangkok_for\"><\/span>How long to visit Bangkok for?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>For the main sights, <strong>3 to 4 days<\/strong> will be enough, but if you want to explore less touristy places, such as local markets, parks, and more remote attractions, feel free to stay a week or longer. <\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-question-1728906525222\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Is_Bangkok_safe\"><\/span>Is Bangkok safe?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>Overall, yes!
