Thanks to all who sent word about Thamee closing soon on H Street, NE:
“It’s time to give ourselves an “Asian F”. F is not for failure, but rather for future and for farewell. This is a bittersweet goodbye for us all.
After nearly two years of calling on legislators, landlords, a national audience of Burmese food lovers, and local supporters for help in the face of an ongoing global pandemic, we’ve reached the inevitable conclusion we must permanently close our doors.
Only 8 services remain at Thamee! Please order (lots of) Burmese food to-go during our sweet send-off this and next weekend.
Enjoy 50% off all wine, beer, and pantry items through January 23, our last day of restaurant operations. Your purchase supports the BIPOC makers and marginalized communities we’ve repped all along. (more…)
