I'd seen ME KONG & I was curious. I absolutely LOVE Thai food, I read the reviews haralding praise of ""the best Thai in town"", so I had to try it. But when I had lunch at Me Kong, I couldn't understand what everyone is raving about. I ordered the yellow curry lunch special ($7.95) and I thought it was just ok. The review below who said the curry is heavy on the flavor of coconut milk is right on! That flavor completely overpowers the other spices in the curry, which should meld together in notes. Another issue I had with this dish is that the chicken thighs (which were not cleaned of tendons or fat to my liking) were simply cut up & cooked with no spices (they should have used the similar spices used in the curry to blend the flavors), and thrown into the curry sauce to serve my order. A curry should taste like its been stewed.
Pros: nice ambience, nice server
Cons: food is just ok, and expensive
