SEN

Adelaide’s SEN has made a name for itself as a top spot along Gouger Street, on the western fringes of Chinatown, for its commitment to authentic Vietnamese cuisine in a relaxed setting. For city centre workers, the lunch menu at SEN is refreshingly concise and on point – spring rolls, chargrilled meat and seafood banh mi, noodle dishes and healthy brown rice topped with roasted duck, pork and more. SEN’s dinner menu takes it up a notch, offering a more gourmet approach to the popular Southeast Asian cuisine. Diners reserving for an evening meal should certainly turn to the chef’ specials – Vietnamese-style sizzling steak and chargrilled prawns and sugar cane, salt and pepper flounder or barramundi at market-fresh prices, or the pork spare ribs with the chef’s special sweet and sour sauce.
