Cabbages & Condoms

Here's a restaurant with a purpose. Opened by local senator Mechai Viravaidya, founder of the Population & Community Development Association, this restaurant helps fund population control, AIDS awareness, and a host of rural development programs. Set in a large compound, the two-story restaurant has air-conditioned indoor dining, but if you sit on the garden terrace, you're in a fairyland of twinkling lights that's quite romantic. Share a whole fish or try the kai hor bai toey (fried boneless chicken wrapped in pandanus leaves with a dark, sweet soy sauce for dipping). There's also a large selection of vegetable and bean curd entrees. Before you leave, be sure to check out the gift shop's whimsical condom-related merchandise.
