Thai Evergreen Joins The Chamber!

Due to the positive experiences that Thavone Mymala (owner and operator of Thai Evergreen) had with the Provo Orem Chamber of Commerce while he was the owner/operator of another Thai restaurant in the area some years ago, he gladly joined the Chamber again before he even opened his doors for business.

A wonderful Grand Opening and Ribbon Cutting Celebration was held and a good number of Chamber members attended the event. Thavone laid out a spread of delicious Thai, Japanese, & Chinese dishes for Chamber members to sample and all who attended had a wonderful time.

Anna Rose Johnson, PR Director for the Provo Orem Chamber of Commerce, wrote a nice article about Thai Evergreen that can be found on the Chamber's website. Here's an excerpt from that article in the March 2008 Insider:

The recipes used to create the delicious dishes at Thai Evergreen came from Thavone’s mother, a chef in Laos who passed her talent and passion for cooking onto her son. She loved to share her recipes and her culture. Some of the authentic Thai dishes served at Thai Evergreen include: Massanman Curry, medium spicy massaman curry with coconut milk, onion, potatoes, carrots, peanuts and roasted cashew nuts; Pad Thai, rice noodle stir-friend with meat, egg, green onions, bean sprouts and served with lime and roasted peanuts; and Orange Chicken, a deep-fried chicken meatball crisply topped with orange sauce.

Anna Rose was kind enough to send us some photos she took at the Grand Opening and Ribbon Cutting celebration:



Thai Evergreen thanks the Provo Orem Chamber of Commerce and is proud to be a member of this fine community organization!

Daily Herald Review March 6, 2008

The Daily Herald published a short review on Thai Evergreen on March 6, 2008:

Thai Evergreen

This small restaurant breaks the cheap-o strip-mall stereotype by serving respectable Thai food. The food is still inexpensive, but we loved the Massanman Curry and the Pad Siew noodles. Our service was speedy and courteous.

Thai Evergreen serves a few noodle dishes and several entrees, most around $7 each. They come with rice and are large enough to stuff almost anyone. As an appetizer, we liked the Vegetable Tempura.

Curious types will enjoy the tamarind-flavored candies that come out with the check. They're sweet and sour -- quite unlike dinner mints or any other candy for that matter.
