16th TOM YUM SOUP
Thai Wok Restaurant, MaléThis is why people come to this resto. It's quite funny, because literally every table has a steamboat of Tom yum on it. And everyone is busy slurping away or refilling their tiny bowls with the morsels of seafood, from their heated contraption. I got a bowl for one (although I have in the past ordered a steamboat all to myself, to the bafflement of the waiter) and enjoyed every last slurp. It is the epiphany of perfect Thai culinary balance. Savoury, spicy, sour yet sweet from the seafood. And they get it just right.
