Over the years, it has evolved into a dazzling occasion that sees devotees take part in a series of dramatic rituals. In Phuket, which has a rich Chinese heritage, the streets and temples burst into life with an amazing array of sights and sounds throughout this 9-day festival, including sacred “Mah Song” parades, firewalking, light displays and, of course, a spectacular selection of vegetarian street food.

At Sears & Co. Bar and Grill, the stylish sea-facing restaurant in Patong at Four Points by Sheraton Phuket Patong Beach Resort, the talented chefs have crafted an exclusive menu of vegetarian dishes to help guests embrace this annual culinary tradition.

Available every day from Thursday October 3rd to Friday 11th October, 2024, these delectable Thai delights range from enticing appetizers including Kiean Thod Phuket (mixed vegetables wrapped in tofu skin with sweet chili sauce) and Thod Mun Khao Phod (spicy deep-fried corn cakes with sweet palm sauce), to spicy salads such as Yum Buk (Thai-style salad with mixed mushrooms and konjac jelly) and sublime soups including Tom Yum Hed (spicy & sour soup with mixed mushrooms).

These are just some of the 14 fragrant and flavorful dishes that are available, alongside Sears & Co. Bar and Grill’s regular à la carte menu. So, whether you are a dedicated vegetarian or you simply want to be part of this cultural occasion, all diners can experience the joy of the Vegetarian Festival at Four Points by Sheraton Phuket Patong Beach Resort, before heading out to soak up the celebrations on the streets of Patong.
