WHY OPEN IN ARIZONA?
The Fire Tiger Dessert Café chain currently has branches in Malaysia, Indonesia, the Philippines, and Cambodia, and now it’ll have a home in Arizona!
So how did the concept land in Mesa, Arizona? Well, a visit from Rady Samphan and Wooveena Ching [Valley couple] to Thailand sparked the interest in bringing Fire Tiger Dessert Café to the Grand Canyon State.
Samphan and his wife tried the chain’s popular drinks during a visit to Thailand a couple of years ago and recall them as “very delicious drink and [it] was so memorable.”
