Nong Poonsukwattana arrived in Portland, OR in 2003 when she was only 23 years old. With $70 in her pocket, and all of her belongings fitting into two suitcases, she set out to start her life in Rose City. After working as a cook and waitress, Nong realized that it was time for a change. She saved her money and decided to take the leap into becoming an entrepreneur. Nong took her love of cooking and her experiences from growing up in Bangkok, Thailand and kept both at the core of her business. She realized that many people love chicken and rice, so it made sense for her to specialize in this one dish.. With her dedication to her craft, her keen talent as chef and business owner, Nong’s Khao Man Gai quickly became a highly sought after food spot in town. Since she has opened her first food cart, Nong has grown her business to two brick and mortar locations, now serving roughly 500 people each day. Nong and her restaurant have been recognized by Marie Claire, The Washington Post, The Guardian, and many other publications. She is a James Beard semifinalist, and has been featured on Chopped.. Through all of her success, Nong credits a lesson her mother taught her as being a driving force behind how she runs her business: “Give first, then receive”. If you visit Nong’s Khao Man Gai, you will see that lesson manifested when you are handed that one specialized dish, carefully wrapped in butcher paper, resembling a small gift made just for you.

I always believe that it’s not a coincidence to be part of Sheldon House, my church, and even being a part of Interact of Michigan. I have learned that patience is a virtue. Without the help of God, I would not have the strength to fight through obstacles. I came a long way with the help of Jesus and through God’s help, I have seen a lot of changes in my life. I’m blessed right now with good friends who are willing to help and listen without being judgemental.
