Sen Yai Sen Lek

Big Noodle Little Noodle (sen yai sen lek) inspired from the Isaam region of Thailand.  It is the newest restaurant in NE Minneapolis - Thai in the NE how fun!  This family is creative, grounded, and gracious in their efforts to provide a wonderful community place to eat, drink, come together.  Every detail is simple and beautiful, the walls, the silk wall coverings (spun, designed, dyed and woven by an aunt in Thailand) great black and white photos, and oil paintings on silk.  And the food is great.  Kate, Kira, Emma, Sissie, Myah, Luke, Sasha and I all went to have some noodles, the kids get Izzie's ice cream for dessert!  The sticky rice was so good.  It was our pre-thanksgiving day dinner gathering early - the women who will cook together enjoying an evening of home cooked food not at home,  great attention, and really fun conversations!  Everyone was looking forward to a fun day - honoring family, honoring friendship, Luke and Emma wanting to share their reading skills with each other.  Myah and Emma going to play with their american girl dolls.  The women all eager to bring our favorites dishes to share in the creation of what will be quite the feast. Opening our hearts, our homes, our delight to and with each other, giving and receiving thanks.
