The signature dish

Som Tam

Som Tum

Isaan-style papaya salad is one of Thailand’s loudest dishes: ingredients are pounded in a mortar until the shreds absorb the dressing. Green papaya, beans, tomatoes, peanuts. You decide the level of chili.

The story behind it

Where Som Tam comes from

Som Tam originates from Isaan and has since spread throughout Thailand. Green papaya is grated and pounded in a clay mortar—not crushed, but bruised so that it absorbs the dressing.

The result is a salad that hits all four flavor profiles at once: sour, sweet, salty, and spicy.
