Vietnamese and Thai are THE cuisines to spice up HK's stuffy summer weather. Minh & Kok is THE latest craze of mine. The menu is short and simple; teleporting your palates to the streets of Ho Chi Minh, then right to Bangkok.It's at the quieter part of Causeway Bay, Fashion Walk, towards the harbour with outdoor seating.

I had visited this place 2 days in a row. 2pm-ish was good timing on a Saturday. Not too crowded, large windows let in lots of daylight and suited absolutely with the weekend mood. Every dish was delightful here. They had just the right amount of sourness and herbs, which were signatures to Vietnamese cuisine, and the spiciness of Thai.Special mentioning to the Crisp Tofu, according to the staff that recommended it, it is a popular street snack in Vietnam. Sizable fried tofu (crispy on the outside, soft and steamy on the inside) adorning with flavorful fried leeks. The sauce - calamansi with fish sauce - was THE amazing bit that gave the dish a pungent and tangy edge!
Steamed minced pork parcles. Typical choice for Vietnamese appetizer.
Green papaya salad. Hint of spiciness, crunchy and very refreshing. Slightly less sweet and colder in temperature would be nicer.
Tomato soup with rice noodles, chunky crabmeat and fried egg. Thick, hot, spicy, natural and loving it.
Young coconut jelly. A very "cooling" dessert to clean the palates after a meal of with strong flavors. They do crack coconuts after coconuts to make this.
There are still a lot of dishes to go through though the menu is very straight forward but even the most familiar dish can give you a pleasent surprise here.
Set lunch is served on weekdays. An appetizer platter, a noodle/rice entree and a drink at a friendly price.

If you like Thai Basil and Rice Paper, this is the best-of-both-world version.
