Pok Pok Restaurant

After a few months of driving by Pok Pok and saying, "we really need to go there" we finally stopped in with our friends Jeff and Etta last Saturday night. It is a strange place that started as a shack in the front yard and has grown into a very casual restaurant with great food and drinks. Their specialty is grilled lemongrass-marinated game hen and exotic shredded green papaya salad that is quite spicy. Jeff and Etta are vegetarians and the selections for them were pretty limited, but they were happy with their choices. The drinks were great too. I had a lemonade cocktail that went down very smoothly with the spicy food. And finally the prices are very reasonable.
