Somtum Der

Following openings in Bangkok, New York, Ho Chi Minh and Beijing, this northeastern (Isan) Thai restaurant expanded to Japan as its fifth destination. The diverse dishes on offer are the work of chef Kornthanut Thongnum, who earned Somtum Der's NYC outpost a Michelin star in 2016, and range from moo rong hai der (signature grilled pork) to herbal soups. Also don’t miss out on the som tum, a Thai salad made from shredded green papaya spiced up with chilli and lime – all for that authentic regional taste.
