Signage went up Saturday for Eim Khao Mun Kai, a celebrated Thai-style chicken-and-rice specialist in Elmhurst, at 129 Second Ave.
Here's an Eater take on the 11-year-old restaurant:
Hainan, the island of China's southernmost province, is famous for its chickens, which are poached in a gingery broth and served with soy sauce. This cafe specializes in the Thai take on the birds. The leftover broth is used to cook the rice that's served with the sliced chicken ... along with some cucumber slices for contrast. A fortifying meal costs around $10.
No word on an EV opening date.
This is the second outpost for the restaurant, with more in the works. You can follow them on Instagram here.
Misoya closed here between Seventh Street and St. Mark's Place in April.
