Damn. It's hot. Where is that poor man's polar vortex anyway? Some minor relief from the humidity: Newish Thai restaurant Soi 38 is giving away free coconut-jackfruit ice cream topped with toasted peanuts and spicy ginger lemonade today beginning at 11:30 a.m.
The promotion is meant to kick off the debut of the restaurant's new patio, which is surrounded by potted Thai herbs. The outdoor seating area will be open from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. Monday through Thursday plus Sunday and 11 a.m. until 10:30 p.m. Friday and Saturday.
