B5 THE ASTORIAN • SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 20, 2021 Loving letters on love David Campiche Suchart Srisopaporn places steamed vegetables on rice. Curry: Owner worked in Las Vegas before moving to the Long Beach Peninsula Continued from Page B1 ran by husband and wife team, Suchart Srisopaporn and Num- suk Srisopaporn. Suchart was born in Bang- kok. There, he acquired a chemistry degree. In the late ‘90s, he moved to Las Vegas, where he worked in a casino before eventually moving to the Long Beach Peninsula. His goal with the restaurant is to guarantee both the “qual- ity and quantity of my product forever.” Suchart shared his recipe for “wonderful panang” for you to enjoy. I watched with delight as Suchart cooked up a steaming cauldron of chicken, shrimp, vegetables, coconut milk and a panang curry paste. David Campiche runs the China Beach Retreat in Seaview, Washington, with his wife, Laurie Anderson. The couple ran the Shelburne Inn for 40 years. Campiche is an avid chef and potter.
