Somtum Der

Somtum Der is another authentic Thai restaurant, though it's regional Isan cuisine, meaning everything is a little bit (or lot of bit, depending on how you like it) spicy. Start with any of the papaya salads, and while it seems strange, order the Sa Poak Kai Tod Der (fried chicken). It's better than fried chicken you'll get anywhere else. The grilled section is also a must. The grilled coconut milk marinated beef skewers are phenomenal. And though it sounds strange, you'll also want one of the larb dishes on your table, and of course, an order or two of sticky rice.
