A rare trip to the East led us to @timbreplus.eastside and among the wide selection of food choices, Tom Yum Mama Hotpot from @streetsofbangkok.sg called out to us especially on a rainy day.

Brimming with flavours from the sea, the large hotpot feeds 2 with fresh plump squids, thick fish slices, tiger prawns, mussels, handmade pork balls, mushrooms, eggs and of course Tom Yum Mama noodles. We were pleased at the overall balance of sweet, sour, spicy, herbaceous flavours. In fact, the fresh zesty lime slices was a delightful find compared to the usual kaffir lime leaves along with lemongrass and coriander. You know you are in for an awesome deal when they aren’t stingy on the herbs nor the ingredients for the robust broth. It’s so addictive that it has become a craving on rainy days. The regular size hotpot is also available for 1 pax.
