All this talk about the duck sub had me venturing there today. It was delicious, so much so, I ordered a 2nd one to bring home.
I had a quick talk with the owners of Trung Nguyen and like some have already pointed out, they’re the only Vietnamese place in town that offers a duck sub. Originally they tried curry duck and Sate duck but nobody was interested and the owners were pretty much eating the leftovers themselves. Since they own a Chinese restaurant too, one of their chefs suggested roasted duck since they were roasting ducks anyways but the owner didn’t think it would appeal to broader Canadian tastes. They tried anyways and to their surprise, each small batch sold out each day. Now, they won’t even think of taking it off the menu.
They’re a nice mom and pop shop and were very accommodating. Try their duck sub if you haven’t already
