Our Story
Meet Susie + Pon Kasem
Founders of
Thai & True
Bringing Thai food into the homes of people all around the world has been the dream of Thai & True founder, Susie Kasem. While growing up in Bangkok, Thailand, Susie was constantly tasting new foods and cooking for her family. With her love for food, the first step towards the dream was to open a restaurant and see how the public enjoyed her recipes. Her dream was realized in the early 80's, when she opened Thai Villa in Lake Oswego, Oregon. The success of the restaurant continued for over 20 years, when she decided to retire from the restaurant business. But Susie wasn't done spreading her love for food. Since 2002, she has diligently shared her handmade sauces and recipes with a much larger audience than she ever could at the restaurant.
