INGREDIENTS
We love our produce. And we love where we get it from. Where possible, we hand-pick the freshest ingredients from around Brixton to put into your meals. And if you come early enough you might see us running between our lovely local suppliers to gather ingredients for your lunch and dinner 🏃🏽💨
Here are some of the best garnishes on our Pad Thai that just make it that much better. ❤️🇹🇭
BTS from our .pa.in supper club last week. Thank you to everyone who joined the fam this month, it really feels like we’re building a little community. There was so much learning but that’s why we’re here! These evening mean a lot to us, and we hope you felt they were special too. Next months events are already brewing so go follow and watch out for the next batch of tix to drop 💛

LISTEN OUT!
Our friends over at came and told us the exciting news… the roof is coming down!
On 13th May to be exact. You know that that means? It means summer is right around the corner, along with the sunshine and good times ☀️ . And we think the best compliment for good weather is our family recipe Pad Thai, maybe some crispy squid and who knows maybe a new dish or two… 😜
Come get your favourite Pad Thai from our lovely little unit in we’ll be waiting your you 😋😋
LOY KRATHONG 🕯️🪷
Today marks the celebration of Loy Krathong in Thailand. Our family grew up in the UK and would usually only spend time in Thailand over the summer holidays. This meant we’d never really celebrated it properly. A few years ago I to visited over the winter, and Yaa (grandma) was excited to show me what it was all about. In the morning we went out to pick Bannana leaves and spent the day creating little floating baskets which we would decorate with flowers and light candles on to release into a nearby pond. Of course we also prepared a big meal for friends and neighbours to enjoy. We ate, drunk, sung and danced into the early hours of the morning. Me and my friend who were just teenagers at the time often reminisce about how much fun this night was. My grandma wrestled her friends into the water! It went on so late most her friends ended up sleeping on the kitchen floor!
I still don’t fully understand what the festival is about and want to learn more about it. Looking at pictures they look like they can be more grand and extravagant, but I really loved mine. I imagine for Thais it’s a bit like Christmas, a day they cherish and look forward to being able to spend with their loved ones each year ❤️
