Hi everyone, after I didn’t grow basil for 2 summers after my family came to visit and last year I went to summer class in NC. But thank you for keep asking me when I will grow again. So, here it is…

- Organic sweet Thai basil, holy basil or Tulsi 🌿($6 each). Plan to grow Thai chili peppers 🌶️ soon.
- Germinate from seed I brought from Thailand with oven baked soil to avoid fungus gnat or flies as I grow everything only in my apartment.
- Venmo/Zelle, pick up near 4th and L St
Or pentagon city (if I go there).

Thank you everyone 🙏

It is almost a month that Uncle Tong and mom have already come back to Bangkok.

We want to say “thank you very much” for warm welcome our family to DMV area. My dad and mom like hanging out at home so cooking helped them more enjoyable. Uncle Tong and his wife are so happy to know everyone. They really enjoyed meeting and talking with everyone of you even though their English are not that good. It is our honor to know all of you.

We are so happy to hear that you enjoy authentic Thai foods. He carried tons of stuff from Thailand to all of you. Hope he comes back here again soon 😊

Please kindly excuse us if you experience waiting to pick up foods in these days. Sorry for inconvenience 🙏

Many people orders and some order in the last minute (we got that you want to try Uncle Tong's Thai Kitchen before he leaves 😄). As a people pleaser, Uncle Tong never refuses any request and runs to Wholefood and Safeway to buy more ingredients that we run out. He even needs to go the supply shop to buy more containers.

Then, after shopping, he runs back home to prep (chop veggies & meat, shred papaya, roast peanut, etc.) and cooks. He sometimes need to put cooked foods in the container if I am in the meeting or need to get into the office that day. Since at the end of June, my mom cannot help much as she has been sick from bronchitis.

Also, Uncle Tong cooks fresh and new each dish for EVERY one of you so he is so busy 🥴

Thank you for your understanding.

It was such a fun afternoon 😉 when someone invited Uncle Tong to teach how to cook Pad Thai, Red curry (Pa-nang) chicken, and Larb chicken with stick rice at home.

Thank you so much 🙏

Thank you everyone to help my dad and mom have a good memory here. Please kindly see the last menu before Uncle Tong flies back to Bangkok.

If you haven't tried his Massaman Chicken, Pa-nang (red curry), Kao Ka Moo, you should give it a try!

Hello everyone, hope you are having a wonderful summer even the weather is very ridiculous this year!

Sorry for disappearing. I took my parents to NC two weeks ago. It had rain storm though and my mom has been sick.

Uncle Tong will go back to Thailand 🇹🇭 in the next 3 weeks so please enjoy his foods when he is still here 😊

Today is the great day as it is Uncle Tong’s birthday.
