Pandan Leaf Thai Kitchen is a traditional Thai restaurant on Crouch End Hill with a relaxed and intimate dining room. Its cooking aims for the balance of sweet, sour, salty and spicy flavours that defines Thai cuisine, using fresh herbs and vegetables across an extensive menu. Lunch, dinner and takeaway are available, while clear vegetarian choices help mixed groups build a varied shared meal.
Starters include chicken satay, prawn toast, dim sum, Thai fish cakes, vegetable spring rolls and salt and pepper squid. Mixed platters combine several crisp, grilled and steamed items for the table, with a separate vegetarian platter featuring corn cake, vegetable tempura, samosa and satay. Aromatic duck with pancakes, cucumber, spring onion and hoisin sauce provides a richer opening dish for sharing.
Green, red, panang and massaman curries pair coconut, herbs and spice with chicken, beef, prawns or vegetables. A chef recommended massaman lamb curry offers a gentle, aromatic sauce, while roasted duck with sweet tamarind and dried shallots combines savoury meat with bright fruit acidity. Stir fried dishes with basil, ginger, chilli or cashew nuts provide alternatives to coconut based curries.
Pad Thai comes with chicken, prawns or vegetables, and Jantaburi pad Thai adds prawns, dry chilli, crab meat and shredded mango. Flat rice noodles, Thai fried rice and green curry fried rice with grilled chicken make substantial one plate choices. Papaya salad, tofu, mixed vegetables, jasmine rice, coconut rice and sticky rice round out the selection, followed by mochi ice cream or another simple sweet finish.
