This Muslim food stall near the masjid is open on weekdays only.


Masjid Ban Thuek Din, Khao San.


It's pretty difficult to get to this masjid as it's located in a small alley in the midst of cramped houses. Look for the Ratchadamnoen Post Office and it's in the small lane right after the post office as in the photo below. The signage at the entrance of the lane is in Thai only.
