The confluence of Warwick Ave. and Post Rd. near the Cranston/Warwick line offers a variety of ethnic foods that will satisfy most palates.

Adding to the traditional Italian, Chinese, Thai. And Irish establishments, Mediterranean, Southern BBQ and regional soups are all within a mile of the area.

Add Japanese to the mixture and we now can eat different ethnic food every night of the week.

Senjoy Sandwich& Tea & Noodle opened last week at 400 Warwick Ave. They also own a restaurant in Pawtucket.

We were greeted by four sharp looking young Japanese men who were eager to explain their appetizing menu, which featured seven Ramen Noodle soups, 4 Teriyaki Combos, and a wide variety of chicken sandwiches and combos.

Senjoy is one of the few places we have ever come across where you can get a classic or spicy chicken sandwich with either dark or white meat ($4.68/$4.88). Being a dark meat lover, I’m thrilled to pay twenty cents less for my preferred meat.

Where else can you get a seafood salad ($6.98), Shrimp Shuma, Gygza, Harumaki, and Takomaki appetizers?

There is also a page of interesting drinks, including Cheese Foam Fruit tea Slush($5.68), Brown Sugar Milk Tea $4.68), and Watermelon Juice ($5.68).

On our first visit, I ordered Miso Ramen with pork. ($14.88) a dish I was familiar with. The large bowl was loaded with noodles, bean sprouts, mushrooms, a half-hard-boiled egg, scallions, red ginger and other spices.

Joyce ordered the spicy Senjoy Ramen with chicken, mushrooms, bamboo shoots, a half hard boiled egg, scallions and other spices. ($15.98).

Take-out Ramen dishes come with easy directions.

The chef flash-boils and chills the noodles for delivery and pick-up so they are chewy and tender when they are cooked or reheated at home.

Reheat the broth, which is in a separate bowl for 3-5 minutes in the microwave until very hot.

Pour the broth over the noodles and let it sit for about three minutes or until the noodles just start to soak up the broth.

Enjoy!
