BOBBY PRADACHITH

CHEF AND OWNER

Bobby Pradachith grew up in Northern Virginia in a Lao household. He felt lost within his family’s culture due to separate upbringings outside of home. As he sought to understand more about his family, he discovered food could help guide his learning journey. The opportunity to study in culinary school and to work under his chef-mother and the tutelages of other Chefs in several restaurants in DC and New York helped guide him, to continue to operate his family’s two restaurants. His sole ambitions are to preserve the integrity of the culture through food and to encourage the Lao-American communities to follow the journey of Lao story telling. He finds old historical contents, recipes, and art to be the inspirations within the menu.
