Come autumn,
No Thai! restaurant will be moving to a fresher spot on South University Avenue in Ann Arbor - the ground level of the 14-story Landmark high rise apartment building at S. University and S. Forest avenues. Construction is still in progress.
"It was kind of a logical move to move to that new building," No Thai! owner Jeff Cho says. "Everything will be new and nicer, and it's in the same exact area."
The move across the street, which Cho hopes will happen in November, equates to a more than doubling in floorspace. The new configuration will have at least 40 seats, he says; the current location at 1317 S. University seats 22.
Cho is working with the architects on a "clean, modern, and comfortable space" possibly with eco-friendly options such as LED lights.
The larger location means a small chipping away at Ann Arbor's unemployment rate. Upon opening, "hopefully we should be hiring anywhere from 5-10 more employees," he says.
