Mee Kon Ghee
Last night joined my friends Karen & Donna in Park Slope for a succulent Vietnamese meal at Mekong, a delightful venue with distinct Brazilian overtones including samba music, a large Brazilian flag, a refrigerator from Brazilian beer champion Brahma, and a São Paulo native bartender. Brazilians cannot end a word in a consonant, and how they'd pronounce this restaurant is today's headline. Later on, we wandered through the neighborhood in the moonlight, and I took many atmospheric and artsy photographs with which I shall regale you all week. Donna and Karen found - and adopted - a doll house (pictured left) out on the curb..
Time marches on: Sigourney Weaver turns 57 today, Matt Damon turns 36. Tick Tick Tick.
The food:
Melt in your mouth Vietnamese barbecued pork chops with sweet sauce....
An edible bird's nest basket (tastes very potato stix) stuffed with seafood and vegetables. I personally picked away a lot of the seafood...
Delightful Vietnamese chicken dish:
