Tummy Yummy: A Hidden Gem in Bangkok
Nestled in a quiet side street, Tummy Yummy offers a cozy escape from Bangkok's hustle and bustle. With its simple yet chic ambiance, attentive service, and delicious dishes, it’s a spot worth visiting for those seeking authentic Thai flavors in a relaxed setting.
Ambiance and Atmosphere
The restaurant features both indoor and outdoor seating. While I chose to sit indoors, I later wished I’d opted for the outdoor area, as the air conditioning inside was set a bit too low for comfort. The decor is clean and chic, creating a casual yet inviting vibe.
The Food
The menu stands out for its clear presentation, with pictures accompanying each dish to help guide your choices. Here’s what I tried:
-
Fried Vegetable: A dish that was a bit hard to define but turned out to be quite tasty. A simple, flavorful start to the meal.
-
Papaya Salad with Soft Shell Crab: This was the highlight for me. The balance of tangy, spicy, and crispy flavors made it an excellent dish, and I appreciated that it was served as a true starter—something not always common in Thai restaurants.
-
Red Curry with Grilled Pork: Rich and indulgent, the red curry’s creamy coconut sauce paired with the fatty pork made for a hearty and satisfying main course. However, its richness might be a bit overwhelming for some, so it’s worth keeping that in mind.
-
Ginger Mini Tea: A refreshing drink that complemented the meal well, adding a soothing touch to the overall experience.
Service
The service was friendly and attentive, adding to the overall positive experience.
Final Thoughts
Tummy Yummy is a great spot for anyone looking to enjoy authentic Thai food in a comfortable setting. The clear menu, excellent papaya salad, and rich red curry make it a standout choice. I’d definitely recommend sitting outdoors if you prefer a warmer ambiance, and this is certainly a place I’d return to.
