Food Courts in Bangkok are places to sample a wide range of cheap and tasty Thai food in a clean, air-conditioned environment and are often packed out with hungry locals. A hectic food court can be confusing the first thing to do is pick up a value card or vouchers from the cash desk – payment is not usually accepted at the stalls - then peruse the stalls for something that looks tasty. Most food courts have menus written in Thai and English.
