Tom Yum - Check!

Slurpin back some Tom Yum

1 down, 9 to go baby! That's right my friends, tonight I'm 1 step closer to meeting my 10-new-foods-over-the-summer goal. First item to check off my Food List Challenge - Tom Yum.

Now you may be looking at the photo above thinking... that doesn't look like any Thai Resatuarant I've been to! Or maybe you're thinking ...I guess she grabbed some take-out? Sadly neither. This Tom Yum came to me courtesy of the international section of my local grocery store.

Now I understand if you're concerned that I might not have gotten the full effect of a 'proper Tom Yum'; however, since St. John's lacks a Thai restaurant these days, it was really my only option.
