Lucky Supermarket (13851-127 street)

This entry is highly unexpected. Firstly, I didn't want to believe it but urbanspoon does have an entry for this. Note: This is not a restaurant, it is an asian supermarket and they have "fast food" just like T&T. Anyways, I don't need to discuss the fact that its just a grocery store in the northside beside a Superstore. Opened by the same owners of Lucky 97 in Chinatown WHICH doesn't have food, this is a twist. Lucky supermarket is much cleaner, more ethnic groups are employed here and HOT FOOD is served!

They serve everything in the hot food section. They make fried rices, fried noodles, pho and bun dishes. They have the choose X number of items, dim sum, froyo, and bbt. Anyways, that almost sums up everything. Over the weekdays, they only many a certain number of items for choose X items and fried rices, so if you go at night, most of the time they'll run out of fried chicken with rice or fried pork. :'(

The banh mi is bit different that the Nhon Hoa that you get in Chinatown or from TC or V Sandwiches, the bread isn't toasted to crisperfection. Its still soft and they slander everything onto it. Good price for what you want!

Pho on the other hand, its always available. They have pho dac biet and bun bo hue and bun rieu. Generally anything you can make with premade soup, they will make you. And certain days, there are "specials".

Bun aka vermicelli dishes, are also available: you can choose from the premade OR make your own (for more cash) or choose the special.

All of these items are priced ridicously. Its the cheapest in the area. But, these dishes don't come in large size. One size fits all and in the case of my boyfriend, it doesn't always feed. It tastes like any other generic pho place. Its good. It could be better but you won't argue for that price. I like to come here for a quick bite, and all the time even though I live on the other side of the city.
