Delicious Tom Yam @ Smith Street

Yesterday was the last day for me in Singapore before going on a short trip back to Jakarta.
I decided to go to chinatown to look for something (read: pashmina) and ate at smith street.
We ordered a S$ 6 Tom Yam Soup and S$ 8 Pineapple fried rice from one of Thai stall.

Apparently, you can order and seat anywhere you like there. Since we didn't know this, we sat near the stall in front of british (i think) couple who ordered the dried chilly chicken hotplate. Wuaah the smell of the chicken was very tempting and mouth watering.

Not so long after, our ordered came and it's not bad. Not bad at all.
The soup was clear (I don't like tom yam with coconut milk), salty, fragrant, sour, a bit sweet and very very HOT. Slurpsss...Yummy!
While the pineapple fried rice was only okay for me. Since it's not hot so it felt like they cooked it before so they can save sometime and served it right away when any order is placed.

Definitely going back for more, since the smell of the kungpao chicken haunted me 'til today :P
