Carrie Pongphila, Chef & Owner, So Saap
So Saap treats San Diegans to authentic Thai and Lao cuisine with an emphasis on vegan specialty dishes. Owner Carrie Pongphila created vegan and gluten-free options for classics like pad see ew and pad thai. And no trip to a Lao restaurant is complete without a platter of thum mak hoong (Lao papaya salad with a kick) followed by fresh-squeezed sugarcane drinks. This family-owned business is celebrating its five-year anniversary in June—so stop by for lunch, dinner, or a late-night bite courtesy of its new extended hours.
