We were lucky to find this place on our first day in Bangkok.
We loved it so much that we went there almost every day during our 2-week stay in the city, sometimes twice a day!
They have a few locations in Bangkok, but this one is located inside the Gateway Mall at the Ekkamai station, on the first floor.
When you approach, you will notice a glass case in the corner which displays all the dishes they are serving.
The system is quite simple.
You can get rice with two dishes of your choice or three dishes and pay accordingly.
(You can simply point to the dishes you like, and they will make a plate for you.)
I’ve never counted, but I think there are always about 20 (or possibly much more) dishes to choose from.
I will categorize their food as Asian, but they have a wide variety in terms of flavors and ingredients.
They have a nice mixture of “protein” (tofu, soy meat, gluten meat, etc.) and vegetables.
The combination you can create is endless, and you may feel a bit lost because there are too many choices.
But the good thing is that I’ve never had a dish I did not like.
Last time (December 2023) we were here, the plate of rice with two dishes cost 50 baht ($1.40), and the plate of rice with three dishes cost 60 baht ($1.70).
Currently (July 2024) the two dish plate costs 65 baht ($1.80), and the three dish plate costs 75 baht ($2.10).
The prices went up, but they are still VERY reasonable.
Some of the pictures I share below were taken last December.
Thus, the prices on the picture reflect those at that time.
You can find some fun, unique dishes like this fried “chicken”.
Their fried “egg” is a must-try!!
I was skeptical first, and I waited to try it until the last day of our stay.
I kicked myself because it was so good that I regretted that I had not tried it sooner.
Luckily, we were able to come back six months later, and guess what I chose for my first meal back in Bangkok!
I have no idea what it’s made of, but it’s super tasty.
You can take away the food as well.
They charge 5 baht for the container.
Many people seem to choose food from their case, but they also have a set menu, and they serve some noodle soup dishes, which I am planning to try sometime soon.
I love this place so much, and it’s not exaggerating to say So Vegan is an essential part of our stay in Bangkok!
July 27, 2024 – I did try Mushroom Noodle Soup from their menu.
The soup was tasty, and there were so many different toppings, including veggies, tofu, and mushrooms.
It was so good that I will definitely order it again.
It was only 70 BHT.
