Deets: A beloved Thai legacy enters its next chapter. On Wednesday, January 21st, 2026, the Sungkamee family officially introduces Emporium Thai Market, a lively modern Thai house on Los Angeles’ iconic Sawtelle Boulevard, where Southern Thai heritage meets contemporary culinary vision, striking design, and an elevated full-bar experience.
Founded by John and Jane Sungkamee, the husband-and-wife team behind the legendary Emporium Thai in Westwood, the new concept builds upon more than 25 years of cultural stewardship and culinary excellence. First opened in 2000, Emporium Thai has become one of Los Angeles’ most respected Thai institutions. Emporium Thai Market now reimagines that legacy for today’s dynamic dining culture, rooted in authenticity, driven by technique, and designed for discovery.
Hint for the Average Socialite: Emporium Thai Market is now open.
