Welcome to Thai Sea Food Blog : Today recipe and tips "Tom Yam Gung"

I would like to invite you to the best cuisine of the world. Our food recipes are easy to create in your own kitchen and serve four. Not all Thai dishes are hot but chilis are essential to Thai cuisine. However all our recipes are medium hot. If you are already accustomed to hot food you can increase the chili proportions.
