HISTORY:
When Pat and Tammy Ngamary came to America in 1967, they had no idea how popular their authentic traditional homeland recipes would become. They spent years developing the perfect blend of Thai spices for the dishes they served in their first restaurant established in 1978.
That Los Angeles location evolved from a small quaint restaurant to tripling its original size and becoming the most successful of the 15 Thai BBQ branches.
