Today we’d like to introduce you to Krit Sritong.
Hi Krit, thanks for joining us today. We’d love for you to start by introducing yourself.
I worked as a server at one of the well-known Thai restaurants in San Diego, Amarin Thai Cuisine, in 2009 before opening my first restaurant.
In 2014, I opened my first restaurant, Charm Thai Kitchen, located in the Rancho Bernardo area of San Diego. A year later, in 2015, I purchased another Thai restaurant, Ka Prao Thai Cuisine.
Around 2018, I also opened a café called Good Moments Tea Bar in National City. However, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, I had to sell the business. I later became a partner in a Thai restaurant called Thai Village, which was eventually sold as well.
In 2025, I opened Tid Din Thai Kitchen, a Thai kitchen specializing in Thai-marinated meats such as grilled chicken thigh, pork, and beef on Linda Vista Road.
Alright, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
This has never been a smooth road — it has been like a roller coaster. The restaurant business is especially challenging because raw ingredients have a very short shelf life, and managing human resources is never easy.
Alright, so let’s switch gears a bit and talk business. What should we know?
I just do restaurant only
What sort of changes are you expecting over the next 5-10 years?
food industries always competitive, because people changing eating habit all the time
