This restaurant-slash-urban farm has put all its signature dishes on the takeaway train. All are made using seasonal local produce and greens plucked from the restaurant’s organic garden. We like the khao yum (rice salad, B490) made with Sakon Nakhon sticky rice, pan-fried trevally fish from Chumphon, and a jasmine tea leaf dressing. Other takeaway highlights include free-range duck legs confit served with organic rice (B490), and banh mi (B690) with foie gras, housemade bacon, and Sriracha aioli.

Formerly known as Dressed, getfresh has a similar health-focus to its food, but this time combines its super customizable menu options with organic and sustainable produce from small and local producers—some of the vegetables are even grown at the brand’s own farm in Pranburi. The menu ranges from salad, wraps, pasta, and comfort dishes like mushroom frittata (B290), to healthy dishes with some twists like the sea bass fillet served with ratatouille, organic jasberry rice, and green curry sauce (B300).

Honmono kind of feels like a sushi mecca in Bangkok, sflying in a really broad range of fish from Tsukiji Fish Market in Tokyo every week. During the quarantine, the venue has gone all-in on takeaway and delivery (obviously). There is a buy-one-get-one promotion happening right now. Get two portions of soy sauce grilled eel on top of rice at B450, or two portions of salmon sashimi at B260. Other, more luxurious options, include rock lobster steak (B1,950+). So yeah, go all five-star in your own home, why not?
