TOM YUM SOUP

A Bold Thai Classic That Awakens Every Sense

Tom Yum is one of Thailand’s most iconic dishes—known for its unmistakable balance of spicy, sour, savory, and aromatic flavors. Every spoonful delivers a layered experience that reflects the heart of Thai cooking: bold, fresh, and perfectly balanced.

WHAT MAKES TOM YUM SPECIAL

At its core, Tom Yum is a hot and sour soup infused with fragrant herbs and spices. The flavor is bright and complex—never overwhelming, always intentional.

The signature taste comes from a combination of:

Lemongrass – citrusy and refreshing
Galangal – earthy with a hint of spice
Kaffir lime leaves – intensely aromatic
Fresh lime juice – clean acidity
Thai chilies – controlled heat

Together, these ingredients create a broth that is both comforting and invigorating.

Tom Yum Nam Sai (Clear Broth)

Light, clean, and herbal
Highlights the sharpness of lime and lemongrass

Tom Yum Nam Khon (Creamy Broth)

Richer and slightly creamy
Made with chili paste and evaporated milk
Deeper, more rounded flavor

Both are authentic—your choice depends on your preference.
