Tom Yum Soup in Calgary

Loved by our Calgary guests

Hot, sour and aromatic — Tom Yum is the soup that clears your head on a Calgary winter afternoon. Lemongrass, lime and chilli build a broth that is sharp and fragrant rather than heavy, and we simmer it so the aromatics stay bright.

Made to order: about 20 mins

Spice Level: Medium to Hot

Cold-weather favourite

Tom Yum is defined by its balance: sour from lime, heat from chilli, and a deep aromatic backbone from lemongrass, galangal and lime leaf. It is not a thickened, creamy soup — the broth stays clear and sharp, which is exactly why it wakes up your palate instead of weighing you down.

At our 12 Street NE kitchen we treat the aromatics carefully, because boiled-to-death lemongrass tastes like nothing. Served hot, it works as a starter for the table or as the whole point of a cold-weather lunch. Guests who want spicy comfort food in Calgary usually land here.
