I really want to make this, looks delicious but where do I find KangKong and what is the difference between that and regular spinach? Thanks for your help! Great recipes!

Kangkong is actually River Spinach, check the wiki definition here. If you can't find it in your area you can replace it with Spinach.

Are you familiar with "Ganas"? it is the thinner version of Kangkong, and it is better to use for salad making...
