Seriously!?!? How in the HEII am I the first person to write a review for Sandra Dee's Catering!?!? Crazy! But woohoo ~ First Review!! :)
I had made an executive/birthday decision last night for dinner. It was either drive down to Fudds in Tempe and use a birthday coupon or do something else. I decided to check out the Phoenix Street Coalition's facebook page and see if there were any food trucks gathering. Lo and behold - Sandra Dee's was going to be right around the corner from us in Old Town! I inform J...let's skip getting stuck in traffic and check this place out. I'm certainly glad we did!!
Sandra D is very friendly and when I asked if I should get the Shrimp or Catfish Po boy, she suggested the shrimp and trying a basket instead. So I could try the shrimp on their own. I decided to go with her suggestion.
OMFG - The shrimp was AWESOME!!! Lightly coated. Not undercooked. But not rubbery. Awesome seasoning. The sauce provided to dip, tasty too, but not needed. The shrimp stood on their own. :) Seriously, these shrimp were so good that J enjoyed a few pieces too, and he's not a big fan of crustaceans!
As we were getting ready to leave, Sandra comes out of the trailer and I inform her that my dinner was amazing! J, SD, and I get to talking and she mentions her gumbo. We end up getting a sample of it to try. That too was flipping amazing!
J's take on the Gumbo - "I'd describe the gumbo as sensational. Well seasoned with a broth that puts others to shame. The andouille was spectacular. Firm and savory. The shrimp perfectly cooked and every bite balanced"
We look forward to visiting Sandra Dee's Catering truck again! :)
