Kim Son Restaurant Review: The uninspired décor and dim, flat lighting notwithstanding, Kim Son is an ideal destination for those who understand the nuances of Asian cooking. As soon as guests taste the salt-baked shrimp, scallops, lobster tails and hard-shell crabs, they forget all about the restaurant’s interior. For vegans, the sizzling rice soup and bean cake with black pepper are rare treats. Regulars key in on the super-thin filets of Gulf fish moistened with a garlic and black bean sauce; lean pork, seasoned and charbroiled to join fresh greens and crisp cucumber in rice paper crêpe roll-ups; and a tart-and-peppery hot-and-sour shrimp soup. The whole fish, steamed in wine or batter-fried and served in black bean sauce, is the house specialty. A traditional celebratory dinner in Vietnam, the Imperial Seven presents seven consecutive courses of beef (two diners minimum). Don’t look for much in the way of dessert; instead, covet those fortune cookies. Kim Son closes for vacation during the month of July. |
