Thai Market — Local services in Fairfield

My favorite Thai Market. The Bay Area used to have lots of Thai/Laos market in the past but with the big chain stores like Lions & Ranch it forced a lot of these very unique stores to close. In the big chain stores I couldn't find a lot of the ingredients for my Thai foods I cook. Sure they had some and those that I couldn't find I had to substitute but it didn't give me the flavors I grew up with. I happened to stumble on this store while driving home and got lost. What luck it has been for me. The owner is very nice and helpful. If there was something she didn't and I needed it, she'd have it the next time I visit. There's fresh vegetables, herbs, and spices. There's fresh home made packaged foods like Som Tum, Gang Nawmai, jerky, sweet rice w/mango, hot pepper sauce (jieaw), Nam, and drinks. She also has sweet rice & Cao hom. Come by and check it out. Who knows, you just might find yourself driving 40 miles just to get a few things like me at...

Since buying our Kruk from this Thai Market we have been very tempted to drive all the way back down to Fairfield to make a better exploration of everything the store has to offer. Maybe next weekend we will go for a road trip! 555...

I am elated to have found an Asian Market near Cordelia. I wish I would’ve known about it years ago. This place is small, but they have filled it with most of the things you need to make any recipe. I went here to get my Pho Ingredients and was able to find Thai Basil and bean sprouts. I was so relieved after a wild goose chase for those the prior day. The absolute best part was the friendly owner (?) behind the counter. She was sweet as pie to everyone that came to her store. She was like a shining light of goodness in this...
