🏆💙💛 Hall of Fame Collab #5 is HERE!

The hometown celebration keeps rolling with another Little Saigon original. This time I linked up with @tony_1000hands , the man behind @banhkhotlady , to mash two comfort food favorites into one unexpected bite.

Introducing the Bacon Cheeseburger Bánh Khọt 🍔🥓🔥

A Vietnamese classic meets an American favorite: the crispy, savory bánh khọt you know and love, with a bacon cheeseburger twist.

The best part of these collabs has been reconnecting with fellow Little Saigon kids who grew up in the same community and are now making their own mark through food and entrepreneurship. And 10% of sales from this item goes back to LQHS creative clubs!

From growing up in Little Saigon to building something together for the community that raised us, this one is special. 💙💛

Come hungry, support local, and celebrate the flavors that bring us together.

📍 Bánh Khọt Lady
10032 McFadden Ave. Westminster CA
 🗓️ Available through the end of November!

Portola Music Festival SF left us thinking about the places Thai beauty should go next.

Not only on a shelf. Not only in a routine.

With Farmhouse World, we brought REUNROM into the room—a Thai fragrance moment for the table, the music, and the memories made in between.

Because Thai beauty belongs in culture: in the places we gather, the meals we share, the nights we remember, and the details that stay with us long after.

This is the kind of scene DARASHOP wants to help create.

Restaurants, hospitality spaces, and cultural partners with a point of view: let’s bring Thai scent into your scene. Send us a note ✦

How do you know if you’ve succeeded in life? When your mom tells you she’s proud of you, of course! Even Grammy-nominated DJ and Producer @tokimonsta is not exempt from this modern day intergenerational, cross-cultural dialogue that determines so much about our self-worth and confidence in this life.

Is the awkwardness, the love bomb texts, and the random side hugs worth the trouble? 💯

Calamansi Bloom is here 🍋‍🟩

We started with calamansi, the little citrus that shows up in so many Filipino kitchens, and built a whole bloom around it. Bright calamansi up top, soft florals in the middle, dewy greens underneath. It smells like the fruit trees after it rains.

Poured in coconut soy wax with a wooden wick, because a candle inspired by home should feel that way when you light it too.

Now live on our site — link in bio 💫

Come make candles with me 🕯️ Melting, pouring, waiting for the perfect cure, trimming the wick, smoothing the top, and hand-printing every label in house. The slow part is the good part.

A look back at MEET THE FOUNDERS at ELOREA Hannam.

Together with @asianfounded, we brought together founders and creatives for a conversation with ELOREA Co-Founder Su min Park and Mukjung Owner & Chef Austin Kang.

A conversation on entrepreneurship, inspiration and translating Korean culture through scent, food, and new ideas.
