The story of Little Grenjai in Bedford Stuyvesant, Brooklyn starts when Sutathip "Pias" Aiemsaard and Trevor Lombaer matched on Tinder. Trevor, a line cook, was traveling through Thailand and matched with Pias, who matured near Bangkok. The couple fell in love, got wed, moved to Brooklyn, and opened a Thai restaurant focused on fresh and standard components. And the rest is history. Little Grenjai is known for its Krapow Smash Burger, and its take on Thai classics like Pad Thai and Khao Soi.

Not gonna lie, my heart skipped a beat when I saw that pad thai with that pork… holy crap! <3
This felt honest.
And deep
Wow this is so well put and so simple. You are absolutely correct.
Uhhh sadly everyone who worked for them would disagree…… so fake it makes us all cringe
This was such a good story. Loved hearing about their journeys. Wonderful. Shine on!
That egg that went with the burger shows how real this place is.
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.
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!
they are so cute, lowkey had a tear in my eye in the end when they showed those martini tats:,)
I got fully choked up.
They are so cute and the food looks amazing! to people the found each other and their destiny! So beautiful!
Those jerseys are crazy fire
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.
thai ice tea cake sounds fricking delicious i have to come here
When he say “no short cuts “ . Then, he shows his method of traditional Thai cooking. As a Vietnamese, i can appreciated their dedication.
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! 😄
“If I had to open another restaurant, I would not do it with anyone else.” Dang that was so cute.
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.”
literally the cutest couple
It’s like a Traditional American diner and a small Thai restaurant had a baby 😋
Having a fried egg in your burger is the most thai in america thing ever
This made me cry 😭
When the menu is prepared this thoughtfully and the owners have a bond as special as theirs- man, I can’t wait to visit! 🥘
