Bangkok's Asian restaurant options go well beyond Thailand's borders and the true variety and range of that continent's cuisine is well represented. Chinatown offers a budget traveler a tour of its menu right there on the sidewalks while scattered throughout the city are superb examples from Vietnam, Korea, Japan, India, and various forms of Asian-style Halal food.
