Brooklyn’s Beloved Thai American Diner

[@katwhy]

This felt honest.

[@arthurosch]

And deep

[@SierraAppa]

What an amazing couple. Truly respect the communication they seem to have. That’s not easy. I bet their love shows up in the amazing looking food. Wish I could try the restaurant…I’m on the wrong coast. Cheers you two…you have such a lovely amazing vibe.

Got to eat lunch there one random Sunday. It was a scene. Groups having fun. Enjoying the food. I was eating alone. The owners were as sweet and chill as you see in this video. Talking about how excited they were to offer Thai ice tea cake - which was freaking amazing by the way.

[@sensitiffly]

thai ice tea cake sounds fricking delicious i have to come here

[@TheRange7]

Thai food if genuine and cooked with love is unbeatable. We have a Thai place near the house that was owned by a husband(American) and wife(Thai) team. They sadly opened right at the start of the pandemic, which made their first year or so just so hard. We patronized them via take away at least once a week just to do our part to support them. Once business picked up, they made a fatal mistake. They jacked prices and reduced portions. We cut back to once a month as did most of their regulars. They gave up and sold it to a Thai family. The new owners fresh from Thailand make some of the best and most fresh dishes I've eaten. Their English is so rough, they use a letter followed by a number on each item menu to make it easy to order. The portions are great and the pricing is very fair. I'm grateful they came in and kept it open. The food is literally some of the very best Thai I've eaten anywhere. The ingredients and freshness make for some of the tastiest and most complex flavor profile dishes I've eaten in my life. Cheers

This was such a good story. Loved hearing about their journeys. Wonderful. Shine on!

[@josephsurivong3192]

Honestly loved this video as a thai person myself I think it’s quite the bold claim saying Samut Sakhon has the best food but I’m very bias. Wishing this couple all the best, the restaurant looks amazing. Excelsior!

[@mauricehan2594]

That egg that went with the burger shows how real this place is.

[@markuswentlandt]

They are so cute and the food looks amazing! to people the found each other and their destiny! So beautiful!

[@NicolasStephensen]

they are so cute, lowkey had a tear in my eye in the end when they showed those martini tats:,)

[@jasoncates2944]

Whenever I see stories like this with people so beautifully genuine it always makes me cry. Good things

[@GregCurtin45]

Thank you Munchies. This was inspiring to see to young people work at making their future together. Borrowing the words of Frank... "if you can make here you can make it anywhere."

[@Bee.23]

Beautiful couple, wish them a lifetime of success. I’ll definitely be checking this spot out 🇹🇭🏆

[@jannewlove725]

I wish I could taste their food!!! Blessings to this couple!!❤🙏🏼😊

[@Smilingtiger13]

[@KingDennisJensen]

This is such an inspirational episode, wow. Seems like an amazing place with amazing people tbh.

[@rtfmpeople]

Not gonna lie, my heart skipped a beat when I saw that pad thai with that pork... holy crap!

[@philiq18]

Life is literally a "trip". Went half-way around the world for food and found love. Sometimes the person who is in the most unexpected of places. Fantastic partnership -- the food looks legit.

[@Screwdriver346]

When he say “no short cuts “ . Then, he shows his method of traditional Thai cooking. As a Vietnamese, i can appreciated their dedication.

[@1uch1n11]

really awesome story. we all support you both!

[@jayelliott1883]

This was inspirational! More please.

[@lo8013]

This was so easygoing, so light. Loved this.

[@corgeousgeorge]

Not the doggo with the "Yeah... I just dropped a big ol' Duece!!! You know... I'm quite proud of it" face at the end! Not that! 😄

[@brianmoody2549]

Go ahead with what you fill is right for you’re looking forward to making your business work,there’s love heart and understanding to fix a great burger.

[@battiekoda]

These two are SOOO sweet together!!!!! I love their, "Martini cups"!

[@danieldalton]

The very best!! I live in Australia but my wife and i have been going to NYC every year for the last 10 and Little Grenjai was the coolest find in recent memory. Lovely people too

[@atom_jack]

I worked at a very similar Thai restaurant in southern California. Couple-owned too. That burger looks incredible.

[@_aiko020]

"If I had to open another restaurant, I would not do it with anyone else." Dang that was so cute.

[@bchantharath]

lao culture has the same concept of “grenjai” or “geuanjai” in lao. it’s funny cause i assumed she was using it from her perspective to the customers, but it makes sense the other way around. my understanding is that its used to be kind & considerate in how others do things.

[@manfrommontreal]

The food looks fire!

[@SeriousPaul1369]

I really enjoyed this! They're amazing!

[@MarcoMedina-b8m]

I know where I'm going to eat next time in Brooklyn. Good Thai food is a blessing.

[@prgx52]

So cute, and the food looks awesome!!

[@MyNewYorkCity.]

Crazy to see how this neighborhood has changed, especially that corner.

[@andrewb8235]

It's been that way for about 10 years now bro. Barclays Center changed everything. Remember Fort Greene before the Barclays Center? Now look at it.

[@suraseekamlua]

ผัดไทยหมูกรอบน่ากินมากเลย

[@Dream_more_age_less]

That Pad Thai looks 🔥🔥🔥 it must be outta this world 💯

[@storyoptics4964]

They seem like a great couple.

[@jodyharris9731]

This is awesome and inspiring

[@jonathanmcgregor8166]

This was so wholesome. This is what I mean when I say food is my love language. 🫶🏾

[@ndexer]

Having a fried egg in your burger is the most thai in america thing ever

[@AusHowie]

Beautiful couple 👍🏻 food looks fire 🔥

[@AnnapolisGirly]

I’m here for the cookbook, or the trip there at least!

[@maxp4573]

"Can't believe my parents let me go like that, like if I'm happy they happy" So goddamn simple but so goddamn beautiful.

[@MartyD]

love thai food

[@XxXenosxX]

Cute couple, I wish them success!

[@mewsao]

as a thai, this looks so good i want to taste it

[@Panster7]

That fried egg is one of the most thai thing. Very nice

[@gunxstha]

I can see that they cook the dishes with love

[@CRCC830]

[@ratz2024]

Amazing video

[@clockwiz]

I'll drop by there when I visit NY!

[@FishyMango]

That burger sounds fucking amazing, man

[@302youknow]

Amazing food and the bulletproof wallet apron is fly as hell ❤❤❤

[@_Imjulez_]

“Stay patient and trust your journey” heard chef. Goddamn

[@Salan1]

Amazing!

[@kittenastrophy5951]

I kinda feel unimaginably blending burger patty with Kraprao flavor. they're totally different and good on their own. As a Thai, กระเพราเนื้อfuseกับอเมริกันเบอร์เกอร์, better eat separately for me.

[@Mikomido5]

The closest thing to the meaning of grenjai is like being mindful and not wanting to impose at the same time.

[@MikelWash]

I'm Dying that restaurant is a whole baby

[@ridethespiral1219]

Yo my Bed Stuy people! Such incredible people and delicious food! Love you!!!

[@Citizen.54]

I wish I had a relationship this strong. Really envy it. All love

[@lugscogs5976]

I feel the love.

[@budrich2773]

Beautiful couple very nice people

[@fay4296]

Crouton is a beautiful name for a dog.

[@Neppyko]

lol he's wearing T-shirt with his mother-in-law's face printed on it or something? Respect.

[@Appfle]

Damn that’s so sweet
