About
At Payst, our mission is to send fresh, handmade, and tasty Thai curry paste from our Farang kitchen to yours. Grown in Thailand. Made in London.
At Payst, quality produce is our passion. At the heart of our products is the harmony between sweet, sour, salty, spicy, and bitter. Each Payst product captures this complex balance of spice and flavour.
All the ingredients for our pastes and sauces are carefully and sustainably sourced from across Thailand and the UK.
All our products are hand-made by our small, devoted team of professional chefs at Farang London, our award-winning, Michelin Bib Gourmand restaurant in Highbury, North London. Fronted by head chef, Sebby Holmes, our mission is to provide food lovers with a high-quality, preservative free, freshly made product that brings together the best ingredients from Thailand and the UK. Payst was born after exploring and experimenting with Thai street food for many years. We hope you love it as much as we do!
Sebby began his cheffing career at the age of thirteen, training in British cuisine before falling for Thai food during a tour of Asia in 2008. On returning to London Sebby started working at Jane Alty’s acclaimed The Begging Bowl, before moving to 2015’s most lauded new opening, Smoking Goat, Soho, where he spent more than a year as head chef. In 2016, Farang was born, seeing Sebby Holmes host a series of pop-ups, supper clubs and private catering events before bringing their residency to Street Feast. 2017 saw Farang adopt San Daniele, Highbury, as a longer term location, prior to announcing it at their new permanent home.
