Let me start off by saying that Thai food is one of my two favourite cuisines, the other being Mexican.
I don't know why there isn't a single Mexican restaurant in the Bicutan, Better Living area where I live. But I'm glad that there's this one Thai restaurant along Dona Soledad Extension called Sen Lek.
The best thing about Sen Lek Thai restaurant is its being little more than a carinderia, which means that the dishes are affordable. The Thai restaurants that I've been to which are in Makati are all pretty pricey, so having one so close to home at wallet-friendly prices makes Sen Lek a little restaurant that I will probably be frequenting in the weeks and months to come.
I ordered take out from there not too long ago, and I was asked if I wanted my food mild or strong. I don't care for extra spicy food as I get hyperacidic after eating them. The mild food of Sen Lek is still a little bit spicy, but tolerably so.
Since there's a Thai massage place a stone's throw from this restaurant, I am wondering if there's a Thai community somewhere here. I don't mind. I've met some Thais over the years, and they are surprisingly a lot closer to us Filipinos than our brother Malaysians and Indonesians.
Anyway, because the food is so good and the prices so reasonable, I give Sen Lek Thai restaurant five stars. read more
