Our Story
At Nounou, every bowl starts with care and craft. Our noodles are made in-house each day—rolled, cut, and shaped by hand—because we believe they should be as fresh and full of character as the city we serve.
Chef Kim Chaimongkolchai brings his Thai roots and years of kitchen experience to the table. Growing up in Thailand, bold flavors left a lasting mark on him. Later, in New York at the Institute of Culinary Education, he sharpened his skills in both Asian and Western cooking. With more than a decade in the industry, Chef Kim now blends tradition with creativity, giving noodles a playful modern twist.
Right in the heart of the East Village, Nounou is a noodle bar that’s modern, lively, and welcoming—a place where comfort and creativity come together in every bowl.
