Lemongrass, a Viet-Thai restaurant located at 1729 Route 10 East, Morris Plains, is a casual storefront location that opened in December. We’ve been there twice already, as we’ve been so delighted with the pristine and very fresh-tasting food. Some starters we sampled were shrimp rolls filled with steamed tiger shrimp, mint leaves, lettuce, and vermicelli and served with a sweet and spicy peanut sauce; salted fried calamari with diced peppers and onions; and unusual crispy wontons filled with cream cheese.
