Tomorrow Night!

Join us for our next Pop-Up on June 10th from 5–8 PM!

We’ll have window service, patio seating, and common space inside available for anyone who would like to dine in.

With June being my birthday month, it felt only right to bring a menu inspired by some of the places and flavors I love most. Thai food has always been one of my favorites, and after my last trip to Thailand, I wanted to bring a little piece of that memory back home since I can’t be there right now, I’m excited to share that I’ve been working on this menu with a few close friends. Our friend Chef Renu, who is from Thailand and had learned to cook from there will be leading this pop-up and introducing our Beef Boat Noodles, Pork Pad Kra Pao, and Beef Curry.
One dish Bangkok is especially known for is Boat Noodles. The broth is traditionally enriched with a touch of beef blood, giving it an incredibly silky texture and depth of flavor that makes every spoonful unforgettable. Finished with fresh herbs, crunchy bean sprouts, and a touch of heat and acidity to balance the richness, this bowl is bold, comforting, and packed with flavor. If you’ve never experienced authentic Thai boat noodles before, this is your chance to taste one of Thailand’s most beloved dishes right here at So Yen PM. Every dish is rich in flavor, made with love, and inspired by memories we can’t wait to share with you.

We hope you’ll enjoy it as much as we do. See you June 10th!

May you always “Eat Good, Live Well..Noj Qab, Nyob Zoo”
