Chinatown in Bangkok, Thailand, I took one of my favorite Thai cuisine called Tom Yum Kung; sometimes it's spelled Tom Yum Goong (Thai: ต้มยำกุ้ง). Kung or Goong (Thai: กุ้ง) means prawn. Prawns Tom Yum soup has a couple of popular flavors. One of them is called Tom Yum Kung Nam Sai (ต้มยำกุ้งนำ้ใส). It's a traditional one and has clear spicy soup exactly like the photo shows. The other one is called Tom Yum Kung Nam Khon (Thai: ต้มยำกุ้งนำ้ข้น). It's a sort of new flavor, but quite popular right now. It looks like milky red soup, and taste like mild, but rich because of coconut milk. Both of them goes well with Thai rice.
