This is only the third time I've had Vietnamese while I've been in Cowtown so I wasn't sure what to expect. We came on a Saturday evening around 7:00pm and they were fairly busy. Looked like it was family run and the son checked up on us several times.
- Shredded pork (#16) and prawn salad rolls (#17) ($4.50 each half order) - these were pretty typical and didn't leave an impression on either of us. The peanut sauce had a bit of hot sauce added to it; never seen this before but I like it!
- Rare beef and brisket noodle soup (#23) ($10.25) - this was O's bowl, I don't remember trying it but she wolfed it down.
- Satay beef noodle soup (#29) ($11.25) - this satay was LEGIT. It's been awhile since I've been impressed with pho but Sunshine's bowl had depth, deep, rich flavour and spicy. Even the beef was top quality; their meat was succulent, tender and memorable.
I'd happily come back to Sunshine Vietnamese to try some of their other soup offerings but you seriously cannot go wrong with the satay. Freakin' bomb.
