Cabbages & Condoms
About
Cabbages & Condoms opened on 14 August 1986 with a purpose beyond dinner: it was created to promote understanding and acceptance of family planning, and its income supports the Population and Community Development Association (PDA), the nongovernmental organization Mechai Viravaidya founded in 1974. The name sets the tone, and the restaurant, which calls itself a Bangkok landmark, has drawn international attention ever since.
It suits first-time visitors who want an approachable Thai menu with a story attached, families, and groups looking for a sit-down meal near Asok. The restaurant is at 10 Sukhumvit Soi 12, and by its own count it is an 8-minute walk from BTS Asok, 11 minutes from MRT Sukhumvit and 9 minutes from Terminal 21.
A long Thai menu
The online menu runs to more than 100 dishes. Appetizers include satay, spring rolls, dim sum and miang kham, followed by soups such as tom kha gai and gang liang, Thai salads, curries and main courses. A separate vegetarian section covers a vegetarian green curry, mushroom tom kha, tofu dishes and stir-fried morning glory, and set menus and buffet sets are posted alongside the full menu.
Garden or air-conditioning
When you book, you choose between the outdoor zone and the air-conditioned zone, which is worth deciding in advance in the hot or rainy months. Online bookings take parties of up to 20; larger groups are asked to call.
Families and accessibility
The entrance has a step-free ramp and there is an accessible restroom. High chairs and a baby-changing room are available.
Meetings, events and meal boxes
The restaurant runs three function rooms named for Thai provinces: the Korat Room for banquets of up to 120, the Phuket Room for up to 50, and the Buriram Room for meetings of up to 15. It also offers buffet packages and delivers meal boxes around Bangkok.
