When it’s chilly outside, the fam craves noodle soup. We wanted to try a different Vietnamese restaurant, as a change from our usual spot. I found Nam in Richmond Hill, close enough to 404 at Leslie. While dine-in was available, we decided to just do take out.
Grandma got her usual spring roll, nicely deep-fried rolls with pork, mushroom, veggies and noodles. It was tasty and not very oily.

I know, I
know, that Pad Thai is best ordered in a Thai restaurant, but I couldn’t help
it. I wanted to try their Shrimp Pad Thai. Of course, it was just okay. Nothing
to call home about but not bad either. The serving was big and grandma and I
were able to share that one order.

Now, when we ordered rare beef, we didn’t expect to get a big slab of fully raw sliced meat, separately packed with the noodles. In our other Vietnamese place, the sliced beef is slightly pink and once we add the soup, it will be almost cooked. With this, the beef was practically bloody still. We did make sure we reheated the soup well enough to “cook” the beef. The broth was good and the serving was hefty.

I would
love to try their Banh Mi and dumplings next time we are in the area. They have
rice dishes and other types of noodle soup as well. Hubby is eyeing the spicy
one.
