I am well aware that this is my second time reviewing Samsen, but I made a conscious effort to try new things on the menu this time around!

The first thing that came was the classic fried Thai Morning Glory vegetables. The dish itself was a bit spicy (it was fried with fresh chilis!) but still really yum. Not too watery and the veggies were still nice and crisp.

I personally really enjoyed this dish, it was quite different from things you could get at any other restaurant, so that's already a WIN from me! The eggplant you could tell, had been grilled until the skin got burnt, then peeled off. What's left, is soft eggplant with a lovely smokey taste. It comes with an egg, tiger prawns and is all mixed with a tangy dressing topped with fresh herbs. My boyfriend didn't like it as much as it is quite a unique dish, the prawns were also slightly overcooked.

A crowdpleaser and everyone's favourite, Pad Thai is always such a treat to order! The Tiger Prawns here were cooked much nicer than the ones in the salad, these were a lot more tender. You could definitely tell this was cooked by a wok. I recommend eating this with a bit of table side chilli oil, it really brings all the other flavours out. I did think that the papaya served with it was a little strange though.

The omelette was probably our favourite dish of the night, it ticks the box for unique dishes you can't find elsewhere so I was glad it tasted great too. The omelette, although not very large, was packed with crabmeat inside and the meat was still soft & tender too. It's served with a side of Sriracha, but I personally don't think it needs it. We did think it was overpriced though, which is why I didn't give it a full 5 stars. 


Again, the food at Samsen rarely disappoints. What does let them down a little is the rushed service. I understand that they get really busy at dinners, but we felt chased to leave. The plates get cleared as soon as you're done and the bill comes without us asking. Not something you'd want to be feeling on a weekend! Also it was more apparent to us this time that the food IS quite expensive, so I'd definitely pick an occasion before going.
