Born and raised in the Phang Nga province of Thailand, the owners/operators of this family run restaurant immigrated to the United States in 2005 after the devastating earthquake and tsunami. Wanting to make a fresh start, Pakhdi Anuwat and his wife Anchalee decided to bring the tastes of their homeland to their new home. Still having close ties to their small community back home, they wanted to find a way to give back and help rebuild the local economy. Their restaurant lets them do just that. Importing their ingredients from the local farmers and using proceeds to build schools and homes.
