Hi, I'm Tippy
Every dish on our menu started at my mum Niang's stall in Surin in 1967 — the same family recipes, hand-cooked the way she taught me. No shortcuts, no MSG, just proper Thai food made with the kind of love only a small kitchen can give.
Thanks for letting us cook for you. — Tippy x
Proudly small. Passionately national.
Always with a smile.
Our Story
Our story, from Surin to your door
1967 — Surin, Thailand
My story begins in Thailand in 1967 with my mother Niang. At the tender age of 5 her path to street food began — every day she would assist her mother in preparing and cooking secret family recipes, served at the busy street food markets in Surin. By 6, Niang had perfected the family's signature dishes using recipes passed down through many generations. These recipes are now the heart and soul of our much-loved menu.
2003 — Learning at my mother's side
Across the other side of the world my path began very similarly: by 10 I had learnt my first signature family recipe, and by 13 I was assisting my mother running her first UK market in Gloucester. Every Friday I would serve alongside her with pride — the culinary Queen to myself and many others.
2010 — Bristol, my first market
By 2010, fully trained in all my mother's skills, I opened my first market — a small stall at St Nicholas Market in Bristol. Ten years on, we trade across Bristol and my little sisters have followed in my footsteps, just like our ancestors before us.
Thanks & gratitude,
