Have you tried Polpa meal delivery yet?
With a huge variety of fantastic restaurants and eateries serving food at very affordable prices, Bangkok is heaven for foodies.
And for those of us that live, work and play in the city but who don’t have the time to cook for themselves, eating out is often the simplest option.
Of course, all that tasty restaurant food day in day out can put a strain on your waistline and your overall health. We don’t need to tell you about Bangkok’s love for all things sweet…
But there is a healthy alternative that’s just as convenient — healthy meal delivery.
Polpa is one such service in Bangkok that delivers healthy, Mediterranean-style food to your home or office for lunch and dinner every weekday. Unlike other services, there’s no obligation to sign up for packages (although those are available) and you can pay as you go.
Let’s find out more…

What is Polpa?
The idea behind Polpa is to create tasty and healthy food that’s suitable for delivery to the office or your home in order to provide a better food option for busy people trying to maintain a healthy lifestyle in Bangkok.
The creative and vibrant menus are Mediterranean inspired with Asian influences, using artisanal suppliers producing natural products, with an emphasis on local, organic, and sustainably sourced foods.
But this isn’t diet food. Mediterranean cooking is known for its incredible health benefits, including reducing the risk of heart disease, and it relies on the natural flavour of its ingredients to satisfy your palate. There’s no added sugar in these dishes!
Polpa’s menus are designed to maintain good health with well balanced meals with the right balance of fresh vegetables, whole grains and lean meat, aiming to keep you full and energised throughout the day.
How Does Polpa Work?
Polpa delivers food to any location in the city of Bangkok.
Customers can choose from scheduled delivery in advance or same daily delivery — just order before 10 am for lunch orders and 4 pm for dinner.

Gluten free Passion Fruit Cheesecake
For something a little more Thai a low fat, gluten, wheat and dairy free, lightly spicy seabass larb with tangy lime and fish sauce, mint, spring onion and cilantro for a perfect sweet-salty-spicy result which is served with steamed organic brown rice and crunchy fresh vegetables.
