Anothai

Flavourful, organic vegetarian Thai
Popular plate: Tofu dishes are the crowd-pleaser here; try larb tao huu, a combination of minced tofu, mint leaves and roasted rice powder, or the deep-fried Japanese tofu—both topped with a zesty dressing.

Ask a Bangkokian to suggest a good vegetarian restaurant, and they'll point you in the direction of Anothai. Hidden in an unassuming complex near Rama 9 Hospital, it's a bit of a trek to get here, but the inventive vegetarian Thai dishes whipped up with organic veggies from the chef's family farm will be welcomed by herbivores looking to expand their culinary horizons past the humble tofu pad Thai.
Innovative, pan-Asian dishes are packed with enough flavour to satisfy meat-eating travel companions, and the handmade desserts (some of which are vegan) are divine—try the banana cupcakes served warm with vanilla ice cream or molten chocolate cake with sherry sauce.
