Bulan Thai Vegetarian Restaurant

Update: This is my 7th time here and I don’t know what I do would do in LA without this piece of heaven. I swear angels work in the kitchen here 😆 Woah! Trust me when I tell you THIS is the place! My new favorite Thai restaurant in LA. Great from start to finish. Everything we ordered was delicious from start to finish, generous portions, and I will definitely be back for all the food I didn’t get to this time 😆

You won't regret it. I eat here often and you'll find me shoving heaping chopsticks full of food in my mouth. Absolute best, their vegan dishes are top tier. I suggest their Hot Wings(1-2 person per order) for a starter and Eggplant Lovers (2-3 persons) with Coconut Rice (1-2 persons) for a main dish. Beverage, iced Thai Tea. Everything is made fresh per order.

THAI FOOD x VEGGIE Immerse in amazing veggie concept and authentic Thai hospitality at Bulan with NO meat • NO m.s.g. • NO trans fats !! They serve such wonderful Thai dishes that uses delicious imitated meat and fresh vegetables. I didn’t feel like lacking meat in any dish at all so if you’re a meat eater then rest assure. Some wholesome recommendations below ——————∞—————— Hot wings: Tender wings in hot sauce, super tender that I cried with tears of joy Inferno chicken: SPICY & sweet, fried with crispy basil Khao soi: Famous Northern Thai dish but deliciously made the veggie way Khao man gai: MY FAV ITEM OF THE DAY - it feels like real chicken rice (gai = chicken) Pla pad prik: OMG this was like real fish (pla = fish) and I LOVE the eggplants here so much Thai tea: Choose your alternate milk and enjoy fantastic Thai tea ——————∞—————— Parking: Don’t go up Manzanita St behind the restaurant because it’s permit parking only. Instead, turn left downhill onto Gateway Ave and you can find plenty of FREE street parking there.

During the shelter at home mandate, we decided it would be nice to try doing takeout once a week (lets us try new places despite being stuck at home while supporting small business through such a rough time). We were super excited to try Bulan Thai Vegetarian out - we especially loved khao soi when we traveled in Vietnam and immediately knew we were going to order that. We also ordered hot wings & Spicy Coconut Noodles Soup. The delivery was quick and we appreciated the reusable and recyclable materials. We didn't quite gather that they put all of the noodles in one container, though, so we ended up putting the khao soi sauce over all of the noodles before realizing we were meant to split them with the coconut soup... we spent a fair amount of time straining and reorganizing and plating it all so it was just right. While I get why they packaged them together, it would've been nice if they labeled the box so it was clear what each piece was for. The food itself was tasty. We wish we had ordered a higher spice level (we went for spicy) but were able to kick things up with our own hot sauce. Would order from here again sometime or, better yet, try to dine in once we can do so again!
