Question 3

What halal cuisines are available in Bangkok?

Accepted Answer

Bangkok halal options include Thai Muslim cooking such as massaman curry, khao mok gai, khao soi, mataba, roti and satay, Thai Muslim noodle and kuay teow shops, Middle Eastern kitchens along Soi Arab serving Lebanese, Syrian, Yemeni, Egyptian, Iraqi and Palestinian food, South Asian Indian, Pakistani and Bangladeshi kitchens, Malay and Indonesian cooking including nasi dishes, Chinese Muslim food around Chinatown, plus halal bakeries, markets, butchers and street stalls. Ban Krua and the Nong Chok, Min Buri and Khlong Sam Wa districts hold the oldest Thai Muslim food traditions in the city.

Question 4

Does the Bangkok directory include the outer eastern districts?

Accepted Answer

Yes, and that is deliberate. Nong Chok, Min Buri, Khlong Sam Wa, Lat Krabang and Saphan Sung hold the largest Muslim populations in Bangkok and a great deal of its halal food, and Nong Chok alone sits about 40 km east of the centre. A Bangkok halal guide built only from Sukhumvit and Silom would miss most of the city’s Thai Muslim cooking.

Question 5

Does the Bangkok directory include Suvarnabhumi Airport or Nonthaburi?

Accepted Answer

Suvarnabhumi Airport is out, and it is the one exclusion most people will not expect. Suvarnabhumi sits in Bang Phli district in Samut Prakan province, outside the Bangkok Metropolitan Administration, so it falls outside this directory even though it is the busier of the two airports. Don Mueang Airport is in, because it sits in Don Mueang district inside the BMA. Nonthaburi, Pathum Thani, Samut Prakan, Samut Sakhon and Nakhon Pathom are separate provinces and are out, even where the built-up area runs continuously across the boundary.
