"Yum Yum is a great Thai restaurant that has been around for many years. It is set in a listed Georgian period building and is massive in size. Yum Yum has many different dining areas, including a section where diners can sit on floor cushions and eat from knee high tables and also features private dining rooms. The interior decor is both chic and contemporary and Yum Yum has a cool suave vibe about it. The eatery has a good cocktail bar and a rather large wine cellar. Yum Yum holds regular Jazz evenings in one of its lounges and periodically holds special Thai events for its diners. These can be a pleasant surprise and often turn the evening into more of an event than just a meal. There is an extensive menu and the quality of the dishes varies from good to very good, with one or two star dishes as well. This can be surprising as sometimes Yum Yum is extremely busy, having 300 covers, and yet they still manage to generally maintain the overall good quality of their dishes. The waitering staff are also generally very friendly and eager to please. I have eaten here many times overs the years and below are some of my favourite dishes. Crispy Soft Crabs, Hot Wings, Beef Paneng Curry, Chicken Ginger (Stir fry with Mushrooms), Lamb Mussaman Curry served with Pumpkin and Potatoes (my favourite dish), Lobster Pad Prik Pao (Whole lobster stir fried with chilli oil, soya sauce and oyster sauce), Pla Choo Chee (Whole Sea Bass cooked in a creamy red curry sauce) and the Squid with Chilli and Basil Leaves. Yum Yum always reminds me of my favourite Thai holiday resorts and makes me dream of my next far eastern holiday. If you love Thai food, I think that you will love Yum Yum. Halal."
