Our Story
ปิ้ง (Ping) = toast / grill
Comes from a favourite childhood snack, “moo ping” / grilled pork skewers
Söder = Södermalm, where it all began
After leaving our jobs in London, we were trying to make Stockholm our new home in 2019. In June 2020, we started making Thai meal-kit-type takeaways from our tiny kitchen on Södermalm.
From the beginning, our aim was simple:
We wanted to cook Thai food that we love to eat ourselves and share it with our old & new friends.
During the pandemic, we started Ping to share good Thai food. At first, we sold to friends and shared our menu on Instagram. Weeks went by, and we soon gained loyal followers who wanted to try something new! We took pre-orders for our weekly one-choice menu and aimed to put something different out each week. Initially, we would cycle to deliver the food ourselves, allow pick-up from the apartment, and drop-offs at train stations. It was fun!
Since then, we have had several pop-ups across the city, and over the last 5 years, Ping has become more than just sharing Thai food that we love.
We are constantly learning about new ingredients and dishes from all over Thailand.
With 76 provinces to explore, we are so spoilt for variety.
Our wish is to preserve the roots of Thai food and do our best to protect its traditions.
Come with an open mind to try something different wherever we are.
Love,
Las & Eliot
