Som Tam’s always the first place that comes to my mind when I think about Thai fusion food. With new creations up on their menu, I am happy to know that their existing dishes are still as good.
Despite having a name that says oozy chicken, there’s really nothing that oozed or flowed. Instead, what greeted us was a plate of juicy deep fried chicken chunks with a beautiful crisp exterior, that was thickly coated with creamy salted egg sauce. Don’t expect the usual grainy kind of salted egg sauce here; what it really turned out to be was bits and chunks of the sauce. On a side note, it was slightly sweet, so it might just disappoint people who are looking for a savoury salted egg dish.
Morning glory tempura was new to me. The curry dipping sauce was rather milky and lightly watery for those crispy leafy greens. Fragrant, but could still be stronger in flavour. In fact, it wasn’t spicy at all. The oiliness got me feeling a little jelak at the end.
Thanks to #burpplebeyond, you can now enjoy 1-for-1 mains (chicken/seafood/veg) at Som Tam!
