Growing up in a small village\, far from the city\, food and cooking is such a large part of the culture that she grew to love preparing meals for the family\, even though it was her responsibility as the oldest child.\nShe left Thailand in 1998 and moved to Edmonton where she attended the Northern Alberta Institute of Technology and graduated with a diploma in computer programming. She moved to Smithers\, BC with her husband in 2003 where they had 2 kids. They then moved to Langley in 2007 and have been there until now.\nParinya worked at several jobs since coming to Canada and did well at them\, but she wasn’t really satisfied with any of them. One day she got this idea in her head to open a Thai restaurant\, and she couldn’t get rid of it – it just kept growing. After planning for almost a year\, they opened the original Ban Chok Dee Thai Cuisine in Langley in 2009 and moved to the current Langley location in 2012. In 2016 they opened a second location in Maple Ridge. In 2018\, they have opened a Thai cooking school in Langley which is also a venue for private functions\, meetings and special dine-in events.

It was during this time that she began to fall in love with baking.\nAfter working in the engineering field for a few years\, she discovered that pastry arts was her true calling.

She attended Le Cordon Bleu in Ottawa and graduated at top of her class with Honours.\nShortly after graduation\, she staged at the Fairmont Chateau Laurier and took on a junior position at Cakes by Tatiana in Ottawa\, where she honed her cake decorating skills.

With years of experience under her belt\, she began to develop her own unique vision a magical jewel-box pastry shop. In 2010\, after her son was born\, she attended BCIT to work on her business plan in order to bring her vision to fruition.
