Among the tom yam goong, pad Thai, green, and yellow and red curries, som tam (papaya salad) sits right up there on the list of top Thai culinary treasures.
The dish, originally from the northeast, has become ubiquitous in Thai restaurants from London to Sydney and is today found in pretty much any Bangkok Thai restaurant (there's even a song dedicated to it). Fragrant, spicy and packing a real kick, som tam is eaten any time of the day.
