Inspired by the vibrant energy of Thai shophouses, LenLen â from @petertondreau , @pueng.wanisa and @timstuyts â brings bold, farmers-market-driven flavors to the heart of @flatironny .â
â
âIn the moody, subdued retro setting beyond, Mr. Tondreau, the chef, leans on green market ingredients for his take on Thai cuisine: fairy tale eggplants with other vegetables and purslane for a dip with rice crackers; fresh mint and perilla leaf with flatiron steak for a larb; spaghetti squash with crabmeat and durian in a coconut curry; Chinese broccoli with crispy pork belly; and market greens with fermented beans as a side dish. Desserts include a pandan tiramisĂš[email protected], formerly of Maison Premiere, has designed cocktails that showcase Thai flavors.ââ

Huge congratulations to the entire LenLen team on this exciting debut!â
