It’s the start of a new week, which means it is time to kick off this week's Chowdown Showdown Challenge. 

The weekly Chowdown Showdown is meant to be a fun and easy way for readers to pick and vote on their favorite places to get certain entrees in McHenry County. Each week, we will ask you to tell us your favorite place to get a bowl of chili or a burger or a stack of pancakes.

This week we are looking to McHenry County Patch readers to let us know, where is your favorite place to get Thai food in the county? 

You can let us know your favorite by commenting below (only one vote or comment per user, please!). You will be able to submit your vote through 5 p.m. Tuesday. 

From there, we will take the top finalists and post in an article first thing Wednesday morning. Then it will be time to vote again — this time for the Chowdown Showdown champion.

Voting will continue through noon Friday, and we will announce the winner first thing Saturday morning. 

This is all about participation so we hope you will chime in and check back. 

So, without further ado, let’s get the voting started. Patch readers, tell us by commenting below, where is the BEST place to get Thai food in McHenry County.
