New York | Samsaen Thai

Google 4.9-Rated, Thousand-Reviewed Train Carriage Thai Restaurant 🌟 🍃 The entire restaurant is designed to resemble a high-end train carriage, and the dishes are quite innovative. Here’s what we ordered: 🏙️Bone Marrow: Not recommended; it’s quite greasy. Jellyfish & Squid Ink Soup: Can someone tell me if this is actually jellyfish? The texture is very different from the usual jellyfish I’m used to—it has a soft, jelly-like consistency. It’s worth trying if you’re curious; it has a refreshing Thai tang. 🌊 Grilled Octopus: I love octopus and always order it wherever I go. This place claims it’s grilled, but it tastes more like it’s been boiled. It’s not particularly chewy but is perfectly soft. It’s one of the more balanced dishes of the day, though it has a similar flavor profile to the jellyfish. Stick to one of these dishes. 🌸 Coconut Ice Cream with Fried Fruits: Highly recommend! The fruits are not greasy, and the coconut ice cream is very fragrant with a nice coconut flavor. You can even taste the small pieces of fruit inside. 🎢 Overall, it didn’t quite live up to the high expectations set by its 4.9 rating, but it’s a solid choice that won’t disappoint. The menu features one page of signature dishes and another page of traditional Thai cuisine, offering plenty to explore and try. We managed to walk in around 1 PM. 🧯 Samsaen Thai #food #ThaiCuisine #NewYork #DeliciousFood 🌆
