Thai Soups
Clear broths, sour soups and the coconut soups in between. 5 dishes.
Gaeng Jued
แกงจืดHeat 1/5 · vegetarian option · 40–80 THB
Gaeng Jued is Thai clear soup — a mild, clean broth with tofu, pork meatballs, glass noodles, and vegetables, seasoned lightly with soy sauce and white pepper. It is the Thai answer to chicken noodle soup.
Po Tak
โป๊ะแตกHeat 3/5 · 150–350 THB
Po Tak is a Thai spicy mixed seafood soup — similar to tom yum but with an even more complex broth featuring roasted chilli paste and a wide variety of seafood, including clams, prawns, and fish.
Tom Kha Gai
ต้มข่าไก่Heat 2/5 · vegetarian option · 70–150 THB
Tom Kha Gai is a creamy coconut milk soup with chicken, galangal, and lemongrass — milder and more aromatic than Tom Yum. The galangal gives it a distinctive earthy, citrusy warmth that is instantly comforting.
Tom Yum Goong
ต้มยำกุ้งHeat 3/5 · 80–200 THB
Tom Yum Goong is Thailand's most famous hot and sour prawn soup, perfumed with lemongrass, kaffir lime leaves, and galangal. The broth is intensely aromatic and deeply satisfying.
Tom Yum Nam Khon
ต้มยำน้ำข้นHeat 3/5 · 90–200 THB
Tom Yum Nam Khon is the creamy version of tom yum — the classic hot and sour prawn soup enriched with evaporated milk or coconut milk, creating a richer, less sharp broth than the clear version.
