We are a mother and daughter team cooking the food we grew up on: Thai favorites done right, and the Lao dishes we think Portland deserves to know better, from Sai Oua sausage to Khao Piak Sen.

Everything is homemade, made to order, and made with love. Come hungry, tell us your spice level, and let us take care of the rest.

Word on the street

People Are Talking

It's a mother-and-daughter, women-owned family food cart, and they were incredibly kind, sweet, and welcoming. The Lao sausage was amazing. It pairs perfectly with sticky rice.
★★★★★
The pad thai had the classic citrusy flavor and a good kick of spice. They give you a buzzer to notify you when your order is ready.
★★★★★
Pad kee mao was great. The sauce had a good savory flavor with a little char from the wok. The noodles had a good bite and the veggies remained fresh and crunchy.
