Tlad eam Market

After my first day working at Bangkok in the first day of Ramadhan “Muslim fasting month”, I was worry about where to have my Iftar “Breakfast”. A year back, I use to work at “Ramadhan bazaar” in Kuala Lumpur after my office hour, now at Bangkok where I can fine “Ramadhan bazaar”?

A quick question to one of my officemate which I haven’t known her yet! “Where I can buy Halal food near by”? She answered; you may go to “Tlad Eam”.

After long discussion, how can I go there using traditional way –map drawing- and high-tech way –GPS- finally I arrived to “Tlan Eam”.

At Tlad eam, I saw the bazaar but it was very crowded. I don’t know where to park my car and I was worry. I just cross the bazaar driving through it till I found the police man who was very helpful. He helped me to park my car in position that I never think of

I was very happy because I found variety of delicious Halal food. See the photos. In additional to that, I found (Muslim pray room) as well in center of the market. It is one level building look like office but it is pray room.

Denote that this market is opened daily whole day but in ramadhan it will be very active afternoon time.

How you can get there? It located on Srinagreinra Road. If you take taxi and you said “Tlad Eam” –you should say it in soft tone (eam) otherwise the taxi driver not understand you -. If you come from On Nut place you can take yellow bus number 11 with air-condition or red bus number 11 also without air-condition. As usual if you using GPS just click on the link to Google earth map located on 13°42'47.68"N, 100°38'34.33"E.
