Passing on the legacy
In September Nita and Nina Kay have decided to "retire" and take a more relaxed role at Thai Pepper. Regulars keep asking if they will see them sitting at their usual table. And the answer is...sometimes. With some planned trips to Thailand and other adventures, Nita and Nina will still be around but not as often as before.
They have entrusted the daily activities of Thai Pepper to new owners daughter Ann and long-time friend, Robin Kammerer. Ann and Robin, along with their families are excited to keep this long-time Omaha favorite going.
Changes? Of course, but not the food! Robin and Ann are sure to put their own stamp on the place, adding a fresh look and an expanded beer and wine menu, and other small changes.
The history of Thai Pepper: Foundering sisters Nita and Nina Kay started Thai Pepper in 1994 at their original location on 127th and Q. Born in Thailand, they immigrated to the US as young adults working in business and Nina as a school teacher with OPS. Their love for cooking and taste for Thai food led them to open Thai Pepper as the first official Thai restaurant in Omaha.
The location on 114th and Dodge opened in July 2001 and is a very popular dining destination for Omaha residents. The warm ambiance and colorful umbrellas are a unique vision.
The Kay's sold the location on 127th and Q in 2006.
Nita enjoys travelling back to Thailand to visit family and try new dishes or ingredients that can be incorporated into their menu. She enjoys looking for unique ways to present their dishes in a clean and fresh way.
Nina is active with the Omaha Leukemia and Lymphoma society and Lymphoma research foundation. Having been diagnosed in 2000, she thanks the UNMC for her treatment success.
