About Us

Sandy, Peter and their family.

Pearl of Siam Restaurant began as the dream of two sisters, Sarin and Sandy. The sisters grew up watching their family prepare delicious Thai dishes in Bangkok, Thailand. They dreamed opening a restaurant together once they grew up. They decided to name the restaurant “Pearl of Siam” after the one-of-a kind treasure found in the waters of the Gulf of Thailand. Then, the distractions and priorities of life took over, and the sisters were forced to place this dream to the side.

The oldest sister, Sandy, married a gifted Thai chef named Peter, with an infectious love of cooking. They relocated from Chicago to the Denver area, fell in love with the mile-high city and decided to plant their roots there.

Sarin, Kevin and their family.

The youngest sister, Sarin, met a young Army Cadet, named Kevin, in a Chicago University. They were married, he became and Army Officer, and they moved to Germany. The Army took them around the world, to Europe, Bosnia, Arizona, and North Carolina. When the attacks of September 11th happened, Kevin left at once for Afghanistan. Once again, life took over and the dream to open this restaurant had to wait.

After Kevin's return from Afghanistan, life finally provided an opportunity to make this dream happen. Kevin, Sarin, Sandy, and Peter combined their efforts to make “Pearl of Siam” a reality.

For us, Pearl of Siam is a dream come true. Our hopes, our pasts, and our personalities are as much a part of it as is our labor. The dishes you will enjoy come straight from the memories of those two young sisters in the Bangkok restaurant. They are full of the unique personality and flavor of the Thai people. We hope you will love this restaurant as much as we do.

Sincerely,

Sarin, Sandy, Kevin, and Peter
