| - Cruisin' down 17th Ave and hunger strikes. "You want to grab a Vietnamese sub?" I ask. She looks at me. "What's a Vietnamese sub?" SCREEEEEE! I pile on the breaks (in a safe and controlled manner) and hang a quick right into the parking lot of you guessed it - No, not Tim Hortons. THAI TAI!
Followed very closely behind eating these delectable baguettes stuffed to the brim with spicy beef sate, pickled carrots, fresh cucumber, cilantro, jalepenos, and those tiny red peppers that explode spicy all over the inside of your mouth when you chomp 'em, is taking other peoples' Vietnamese sub virginity. As a rule, Calgary is pretty 'down to sub', so this hasn't happened in a long time. Needless to say, I pounced on this rare opportunity like a puma would pounce on whatever pumas might pounce on.
This is a clean little take-out restaurant and a great place to satisfy all of your Vietnamese sub desires. There are no tables to sit at, but there is a dentist office style waiting area with some seats to wait at, or quickly push a sandwich into your face.
