Di An Di is an expansion of An Choi — a Vietnamese eatery on the Lower East Side — and it’s soup-centric menu was designed by chef Dennis Ngo, according to Grub Street, who included the eatery on its list of the season’s most anticipated restaurant openings.

Grub Street also picked some highlights from the menu at Di An Di — which means “Let’s go eat” — that included beef noodle soup with a poached egg and a fried cruller as well as a shaved ice dessert with pandan jelly and seasonal fruit.

The crew behind Di An Di has been teasing the restaurant by posting Instagram photos of pho, post-impressionist art and tropical plants since October 2017. Those notes can be seen in the restaurant's interior, which is light, airy and full of plants.
