Food courts in Bangkok (indoor and outdoor)

[Foreigner]

At some point in a visit to Bangkok, I always like to go visit some food court in a mall or alley. 

One of the main ones is up on about floor #7 in the front part (the end nearest to National Stadium Skytrain) at MBK mall. So many stalls that you can visit. The typical paper tickets are bought from a booth, and that's what you use to pay for your food at the stall. Thai, Chinese, Indian, so many kinds of food. If anyone has found a favorite stall, that would be good to know. 

A hidden gem I found years ago, I don't know if it is still there or not. It's in the alley in Siam Square that curves around behind the (now closed) Scala Cinema. It runs for such a long stretch with so many kinds of food and desserts and beverages, and so insanely cheap. 

I'm sure there are others I don't know about yet.

A great topic! Food courts can sometimes capture the best of street food without all the diesel fumes, motorcycle noise, and chaos of eating on the street. Plus AC!

Very consistent over the years especially in terms of pricing (even with inflation) has been the food court at terminal 21
