It was a little bout of homesickness that drove Thai-born Terry Intarakhamhaeng to take the plunge and open Soi 38 five years ago today.
“Nowhere else cooked the food that I wanted to eat,” Terry says. “It made me a bit depressed. And (partner) Daisy (Miller) said if you’re going to cook Thai food it has to be different than the hundreds of other places around … cook what you want, what you love.”
Now the couple, who met while working as tour guides for the same company, run the restaurant together.
Terry is in charge of the kitchen while Daisy manages the dining room of the top-ranked Thai restaurant in SA’s delicious100 for 2019.
Their story features in part three of a new Advertiser video series called “Delicious Love Stories”, by video journalist Veathika Jain and videographer Emily Dawe (watch it above).
