🥗 Vegetarian / Vegan situation

Good news:

• ✅ There ARE vegetarian options clearly provided
• ✅ There is often a “Veggies Food Corner” just for plant-based food
• ✅ Some visitors confirm vegan options exist at the buffet

Typical veg-friendly items you might see:

• Fresh veggie spring rolls
• Salad bar / raw vegetables
• Stir-fried vegetables or noodles
• Rice dishes
• Fruits & Thai desserts

👉 BUT: It’s still a mixed buffet (not fully vegan)

⚠️ VERY IMPORTANT for allergies / strict vegan

This is where you need to be careful:

• ⚠️ Many Thai dishes may contain:
  • Fish sauce
  • Oyster sauce
  • Shrimp paste
  • Egg or dairy in desserts
• ⚠️ Cross-contamination is likely (shared cooking areas)
• ✅ The festival says:
  • Each dish has ingredient labels
  • You can ask staff to confirm ingredients

🧠 Practical strategy (what I recommend)

If you are allergic vegan (serious):

✔️ Do this:

• Go straight to the Veggies Food Corner
• Look for:
  • Plain rice
  • Stir-fried vegetables (ask “no fish sauce?”)
  • Fresh fruit
• Ask staff:
  • “Vegan? No fish sauce, no egg, no dairy?”

✔️ Bring backup snacks

Even though food exists, choices may feel limited for strict diet.

❌ What to avoid (high risk)

• Curries (often fish sauce or shrimp paste)
• Noodles (may contain egg or sauce)
• Fried items (shared oil)
• Desserts (often dairy or egg)

👍 Bottom line

• Vegetarian: ✅ Easy
• Vegan: ⚠️ Possible but limited
• Allergic vegan: ⚠️ Be cautious + double-check everything
