Food and Dining in Sukhumvit

The food and dining scene on Sukhumvit Road is a wonderful testament to the diversity of cultures that converge here. Eateries range from old noodle shops and street vendors to international restaurants and fast-food outlets, settings from the luxurious to the non-descript prices and from the astoundingly cheap to the prohibitively expensive. Global fast-food franchises like Burger King, Subway, McDonald's, Starbucks and KFC are scattered all over Sukhumvit.

More intriguing though is the street food – among the best in town. As interesting, but nowhere near as cheap, are Sukhumvit's many restaurants. Some are on Sukhumvit Road itself, near the hotels, but most are tucked away down the area's many side streets or sois. Great places for lunch, dinner or a snack, they offer cuisines from around the globe, usually in a decorative setting that befits their menus.
