Barefood Bangkok

Barefood Bangkok has proven that being vegan doesn’t mean cutting out the salty, stretchy goodness cheese provides. Wanting to create food that is delicious, plant-based, non processed, and use locally sourced ingredients as much as possible, Thai owner Taksina Nuangsri and Italian chef/co-owner Edoardo Bonavolta, started a nut cheese business about three and a half years ago. Their cheeses are made with cashew sourced from the south of Thailand, and are offered in six flavors: truffle, chili, classic, smoked oak wood, mixed herbs, and smoked jack. Aside from the cheese platter, don’t miss the Barefood Cheeseburger, which boasts a succulent patty made with tempeh, zucchini, beetroot, radish, mushroom, koji (a type of fungus), and flaxseed. If you like mushrooms, their house-made, whole-grain pasta with mushroom porcini sauce is a must.
