Katak Thai Kitchen | Our Story

Cooked Live, Served with Heart

Chef Took brings years of culinary experience and inspiration from across Thailand, Vietnam, Malaysia, Singapore, and China to every event she serves. At Katak Thai Kitchen, each dish is prepared live with energy, authenticity, and care — transforming fresh ingredients and bold Southeast Asian flavors into an unforgettable dining experience right at your event.
Rooted in Five Cultures

Rooted in Five Cultures

Chef Supranee — affectionately known as “Chef Took” — was inspired by the vibrant kitchens and street markets of Thailand, Vietnam, Malaysia, Singapore, and China. These rich culinary influences shape every dish she creates. From house-made sauces to carefully selected imported spices, Chef Took brings generations of authentic Asian flavor and tradition to every dining experience, cooking class, and catered event.
From PhD to the Kitchen

From PhD to the Kitchen

Before founding Katak Thai Kitchen, Chef Took earned a PhD in Biotechnology — bringing a unique level of precision, discipline, and craftsmanship into every dish she creates. That scientific attention to detail can be tasted in the carefully balanced flavors, expertly fermented sauces, and the perfectly controlled heat that gives signature dishes like Royal Pad Thai their unforgettable smoky char and depth of flavor.
Catering as Live Theater

Catering as Live Theater

At Katak Thai Kitchen, catering is more than serving food — it’s a live culinary experience. Chef Took and her team cook fresh on-site, filling every event with the sights, sounds, and aromas of authentic Asian street cuisine. Guests can watch Drunken Noodles tossed in a sizzling wok and coconut shrimp crisped to golden perfection right before their eyes. It’s an interactive dining atmosphere that brings excitement, freshness, and unforgettable flavor to every celebration — something no reheated tray can match.
The Art of the Table

For Chef Took and her team, exceptional food and beautiful presentation always go hand in hand.
