Moon & Back Brings ‘Mom-to-Table’ Thai to the West Village. Chef Sunisa “Susan” Nitmai and Chompoo Nitmai, the mother and daughter team behind the shuttered Michelin Bib Gourmand Pata Cafe in Queens crossed the river bringing family favorites and new creations to this Thai restaurant whose technicolor décor departs from the nostalgia-driven dining rooms flooding New York City’s Thai dining scene. The pair have teamed with another family—Thana “Tum Kigprayoon and his wife, Angsuwan “Phai” Kigprayoon, restaurateurs who missed Chef Sunisa’s cooking—and Naratip Klinsrisuk, who Chompoo met while running the critically acclaimed Pata Bar, an Elmhurst destination.
