Sen Yai is a small Thai restaurant and takeaway at 173 Replingham Road in Southfields. Its family run atmosphere and compact dining space create an informal setting for dishes cooked to order. The menu covers Thai street food, curries, wok cooking, noodles and rice, making it equally suitable for a quick collection or a relaxed local meal.
Starters include chicken satay marinated with lemongrass and coriander, vegetable spring rolls, fish cakes made with red curry paste and lime leaf, prawn toast and steamed pork and prawn dumplings. Grilled pork skewers, prawn rolls, vegetable dumplings and tempura broaden the selection. Peanut sauce, cucumber relish, sweet chilli and seasoned soy dips add contrasting flavours.
Green, red, Panang and Massaman curries use coconut milk with herbs, vegetables and a choice of meat, seafood or tofu. Roast duck red curry combines tomatoes, pineapple and sweet basil for a fruitier profile. Stir fried dishes bring together chilli, basil, garlic, ginger, cashew nuts or sweet and sour sauce, while seafood specials offer another route beyond the curry section.
Pad Thai balances rice noodles, egg, bean sprouts, tofu and tamarind, with prawns or tofu among the available fillings. Pad see ew and spicy drunken noodles provide wider rice noodles with soy, vegetables, chilli and garlic. Fried rice, chicken fried rice, sticky rice and steamed jasmine rice complete the meal, while a seafood hot pot offers a warming choice intended for a more substantial order.
