9 Years!
September 15th, 2017 is our NINTH anniversary at Sen Yai Sen Lek!
It’s amazing to think back to those early days on Central Ave. and how much things have changed.
Thank you to all of our staff, neighbors, friends & guests who have shared this ride with us.
Here’s to at least another 9 more!
Summer Break
Friends! Sen Yai Sen Lek will be taking a summer respite. We’ll be closed June 30 – July 9. But have no fear….we’ll return with your favorite Thai dishes Monday, July 10th @ 11am. Enjoy July 4th hot dogs while you’re missing your Khao Soi!
The Unusual – March!
Everyone loved meeting Jared & trying his favorite so much that we’re introducing you to another Sen Yai Sen Lek staff member during the month of March!
Meet Wassana….
Sawatdee, kha! I am the AM Kitchen Manager. I speak my mind, I’m loud and I laugh a lot…a whole lot! I think I was Sen Yai Sen Lek’s first hire, even before the doors were open in 2008. I think Happy Kitchen=Happy Food. If the kitchen door swings open while you’re here, you’ll know I’m working when you hear me laughing.
Miang Pla : Crispy Catfish Lettuce Wrap
Roll up your sleeves, because you have to assemble this one yourself. Crispy catfish, bean thread noodles, mint, green onion, Thai basil, cilantro and lemongrass all wrapped up in a lettuce leaf with a spicy peanut-lime sauce. Aroy maak maak!
Valentine’s Day Special
Purchase any bottle of wine and receive two complimentary Valentine’s Day dessert specials!
The Unusual
Come in & enjoy February’s Unusual. Brought to us by our very own Jared. He calls it Sugar, Spice & Everything Rice. A plate ‘o fried rice, crispy catfish, pineapple….you get the idea! Don’t forget to create a “Thai-ku” for a chance at a great prize!
