Yuba City Restaurant Guide

Sopaworn "Soupy" Savedra was born in Ubon Ratchathani, Thailand. Sopa gathered her family and friends support and opened Sopa Thai Cuisine in July 2003. Along with service, the restaurant's authenticity is very important to Sopa. She ordered much of the furniture and decor directly from Thailand. Both restaurants feature a special section for traditional Thai seating, where the floor is lowered and patrons sit with pillows and triangle shaped armrest also ordered from Thailand. The wait staff wear traditional Thai clothing such as sarongs, and "fisherman pants." The large menu with over 60 items, is prepared by Thai cooks. From traditional Pad Thai Noodles, to Mango Red Curry or Pineapple Fried Rice, served along side a cold Singah Thai beer. Almost the entire menu can be made very mild or very spicy, with vegetarian options as well. A lifelong Buddhist, Sopa has the restaurants blessed and anointed by Buddhist monks.
