Siam Niyom is a Thai restaurant at 347 Norwood Road in West Norwood, close to Tulse Hill station. Its name means the favourite foods of Siam, and the kitchen draws on the founders’ experiences of different Thai regions to present traditional recipes in a warm neighbourhood dining room.
Starters introduce a broad range of textures and flavours through moo ping pork skewers, handcrafted chor muang dumplings, chicken satay, crisp soft shell crab and spicy chicken wings. Tom yum brings together prawns, mushrooms, lemongrass, galangal and kaffir lime, while coconut rich tom kha offers a gentler aromatic soup.
Som tum and larb balance chilli, lime, herbs and roasted rice, preparing the palate for curries, noodles and regional main dishes. Northern khao soi, southern fried chicken, north eastern grilled meat and central Thai coconut preparations show how the menu travels across the country rather than relying only on familiar standards.
Vegetarian, vegan and gluten free choices allow mixed groups to explore the menu together, supported by jasmine rice and sticky rice. Thai inspired drinks, cocktails and desserts complete the meal, while takeaway and delivery make the restaurant’s regional cooking available throughout the surrounding neighbourhood.
