Ryan Tham Biography

Mumbai-born restaurateur Ryan Tham is part of a multi-generational family in the food business. He helped expand his family’s restaurants and co-founded a餐

Early life and background
Ryan Tham was born on 18 April 1982 in Mumbai, Maharashtra. Raised in a family long involved in the city’s restaurant trade, he represents the third generation of the Tham family to work in hospitality. His father is Henry Tham and his mother is Ashitta Tham. Ryan’s maternal grandparents are Laxmichand and Reba Gupta. He is a first cousin of Pooja Bedi and is related to Kabir Bedi and the late Protima Bedi through family ties.

Ryan grew up in Mumbai and attended G.D. Somani Memorial School. He later studied at H.R. College in Mumbai before going to Australia, where he completed a degree in Business and Restaurant Management at Griffith University in 2004. The family’s Chinese heritage and long association with restaurants in Mumbai shaped his early interests and ambitions.

Career
Hospitality has been the core of Ryan Tham’s professional life. His grandfather, Mon Yiu Tham, moved from Kolkata to Mumbai in the 1960s and transitioned from running a salon to establishing Chinese restaurants, including Mandarin and Kamling. After finishing his studies in Australia, Ryan returned to India and joined the family enterprise as it evolved into new formats.

In the mid-2000s, Ryan worked with his father when the family opened a fine-dining restro-bar under the name Henry Tham, a concept that incorporated a bar element Ryan had encountered while studying abroad. That venue launched in 2005 and marked a generational shift from the family’s earlier restaurants.

Ryan and his brother Keenan have collaborated on multiple projects. The brothers opened a nightclub called Trilogy at Hotel Sea Princess in Juhu in 2010; the venue operated for several years and closed in 2017. In 2014 Ryan, Keenan and four school friends founded Pebble Street Hospitality, a hospitality group that has launched several concepts in Mumbai.

Pebble Street’s first project was The Good Wife, a modern European gastropub in the Bandra Kurla Complex. Subsequent openings included Koko, an Asian-themed gastropub in Kamala Mills that debuted in 2016, and Foo, an Asian bistro in Lower Parel. For Foo, Ryan and his team introduced Nikkei cuisine, a fusion of Japanese and Peruvian flavors, as part of the menu offerings. Ryan’s approach to hospitality has blended family traditions with international influences he encountered during his education and travels.

Personal life
Ryan has been publicly linked to actress Minissha Lamba; the two married on 6 July 2015 and later divorced. He identifies as non-vegetarian and has cited favourites such as mutton curry with rice and chilli pickle, mango, and black coffee. Ryan has said that friends matter greatly to him, a sentiment reflected in his business partnerships and social approach to hospitality. He enjoys partying and travel in his free time.
