A very international menu, I like the Italian selection with tasty pizza and do it yourself pasta dishes. The dessert counter is also excellent.

Uses the same system as Tom conveniently called it "food credit card" where each card has a 1,000 baht credit limit. However, the only difference is that the food court at Central World does not have a 5% surcharge. If anyone plans to go to Central World, give this place a try. Great food at reasonable prices. The food court is divided in 2 halfs, one side has the international cuisines/stalls while the other side offers local dishes such as noodles, chicken rice and the like. The 'kao kaa moo' aka Stewed Pork Leg is the BOMB! The 'katsu curry rice' offered at the japanese stall on the opposite side is also a great deal at only Baht 110 for a very good and acceptable rice to curry ratio. I've had cases in the past where in food courts where the rice to "kup kao" or translated roughly, "meat" ratio was just appalling.
