Tiffany Fong, the renowned investigative reporter known for her deep-dive coverage of the cryptocurrency industry, recently visited KROK as the Spring Mountain corridor continues to solidify its reputation as a world-class culinary destination.
Fong, who gained international attention for her fearless reporting on the Sam Bankman-Fried and FTX saga, took a break from the high-stakes world of digital assets to explore the local dining scene. Her verdict was clear: the meal at KROK was the “best food we had in Vegas.”
Her visit adds to a growing list of out-of-town voices spotlighting the corridor — now home to more than 248 restaurants across three miles of Spring Mountain Road, one of the most concentrated and dynamic dining districts in the country.
A Feast for the Senses
During her visit, Fong highlighted several standout dishes that continue to define KROK’s rising reputation within the Chinatown Vegas district:
- Crab-Heavy Fried Rice: Loaded with generous portions of crab — something Fong specifically called out, noting there was “so much crab.”
- Signature Khao Soi: A visually stunning curry broth featuring tender meat and a massive topping of premium crab meat.
- Crying Tiger Steak: Perfectly seared steak served with KROK’s signature dipping sauce.
- Mango Sticky Rice: A vibrant take on the classic Thai dessert, garnished with fresh fruit and coconut cream.
