She is the creator of the YouTube channel Pailins Kitchen (link)with almost 1.5 million subscribers, author of the cookbook Hot Thai Kitchen, and host of the TV series One World Kitchen on Gusto TV.
Pai has focused on Thai cuisine while also giving her viewers and readers tips for a kind of fusion cooking, that is, cooking Thai recipes with locally available ingredients or local variations. In her videos, she cooks Thai dishes with great enthusiasm and with easy-to-follow instructions. Again and again, explanatory texts such as notes on the ingredients and their quantities are inserted. The recipes are also presented in text form under the videos on YouTube or on her website (https://hot-thai-kitchen.com).
Pailins Kitchen is a MUST for any amateur chef who wants to try their hand at Thai cuisine.
