Well, anyway, since my first visit to Mekong, I discovered Pho So #1 and never thought of any reason to go anywhere else. Until a few months ago, I was completely content in never going back. Then I learned about Ahn Mekong and his obsession with Belgian Ales.

It is a bit odd, that a Vietnamese restaurant has a beer menu that rivals Capital Ale House. It was enough reason for me to check it out again. So Mrs. Marinara and I were out on a little Valentine’s Day excursion and we decided to grab some dinner at Mekong.

Really, it was a solid experience. Everything was just good- nothing mind blowing- but good. The prices were reasonable. The menu was diverse. The food tasted great. I still don’t claim to be the expert on Vietnamese food, but it tasted good to me and the beer was great. I still can’t believe I waited so long to make it back there.

Am I the only one to have done this?
