Haymarket late-night energy meets Bangkok street heat—uncompromising on chili, generous on portions, and with zero weekend surcharge. Sydney’s Thai food crowd points toward this bustling room opposite Market City for communal feeds that bypass localized sweetness. The signature play is the Chim Chum—a fragrant, steaming hot pot packed with seafood, glass noodles, and fresh herbs in a naturally sweet broth. Their Tom Yum fried rice arrives served inside a carved young coconut, brimming with calamari, prawns, and thick ribbons of coconut meat. Add a charred plate of grilled pork jowl, dipped straight into a sharp, seed-speckled house chili sauce that pulls no punches. Wash it down with a brisk watermelon smoothie to tame the burn.
- Signature Chim Chum: Bubbling herbal broth packed with prawns, meats, fresh herbs, and glass noodles, built for sharing.

- Late-Night Dining, No Surcharge: Generous portions, late-night hours across from Market City, and no surcharge on weekends.
