Yum Yum Thai - London

I attended a ladies lunch here today and it was simply deliciousThe ambiance is very peaceful and the service was quick and friendly.

Of the four times I have eaten in Yum Yum I have found the service slow and the food overpriced.

Yum Yum is well, the joke is too easy there, but yes, it's pretty delicious.

The restaurant was decent, but not the greatest. I ordered coconut rice and a steak. The coconut flavor in the rice was too strong for my liking, so I had to send it back and switch it for egg fried rice. The view was stunning. For more information about this restaurant, visit my blog. (hidden link)
