RESTAURANT REVIEW
You know the situation is serious when reviewers contribute comments like “the best Thai restaurant in a city that has many amazing options for the cuisine.” Thirty-one-year-old Kris Yenbamroong specializes in Thai street food, and the small menu includes dishes like grilled hog collar with chile dipping sauce, Chiang Rai-style pork larb, and a catfish and pork-fat tamale. Larger parties can opt for a whole braised skin-on pork butt or the fish of the day, which feeds two or three people and is prepared salt-crusted or deep-fried and topped with three-flavor sauce.
