Sawtelle just got a little spicier 🌶️ with @emporiumthaimarket! From the team behind @emporiumthai, they have opened this fun spot offering classics like chicken satay, khao soi 🍜, and mango 🥭 sticky rice. But don’t skip the deep-cut delicacies like their crab 🦀 omelette or mee krob. Sip on cocktails or mocktails 🍹, and soak up the colorful vibes. Save this for your next #Westside food crawl 😉. #thaifood
