After nearly 13 years on Avenue A, Somtum Der is closing.
The Michelin-recognized Isan-style Thai restaurant will serve its final meals on May 31.
We were told the owners are planning to move back to Thailand, though it's unclear whether that is directly tied to the closure.
In the meantime, the restaurant at 85 Avenue A between Fifth Street and Sixth Street is operating with a limited menu — meaning no noodle dishes for now, including favorites like pad thai and pad see ew.
Somtum Der opened here in 2013, bringing northeastern Thai cuisine to the East Village.
They will be missed.
