If you’re a Muslim, I am sure you would be able to relate that it is not easy to find Halal food when you’re overseas. The safest option is to find a mosque where there are many Halal restaurants or street food stalls available nearby. So if you find yourself wishing that there was some sort of Halal food guide specially catered to those going to Bangkok, fret not. Here is our very own curated Halal food guide for those travelling to Bangkok to make your life easier. 1. Halal Som Tam Image: havehalalawilltravel.com Yes, that is literally the restaurant’s name.
