Sukhothai came on the scene about 20 years ago , thanks to a family that wanted to bring their ancestral home recipes to share with Winnipeg diners . Yet , the vibe is a contemporary one , with décor and service both up to today ’ s standards . Whether diners crave traditional Thai or want something new , Sukhothai is well-equipped for both .
The cooking is unabashedly spicy , an exciting experiment for those eager to experience true Thai piquancy profiles . The spice level of each dish ranges from 0-10 . While traditional spices enhance the gusto of a dish , bear in mind that the western definition of spicy is often milder than that of eastern cuisine .
Stuffed chicken wings are sure to surprise . Appearing as typical fried drumsticks at first glance , one bite reveals a stuffing of seasoned ground chicken breast , silver noodles and herbs . The tender meat pulls effortlessly off the bone , its savour amplified by the sweet and spicy peanut dipping sauce . For a more traditional starter , Tod Mun Pra packs the flavour . Ground basa is mixed with lime leaves and other Thai seasonings , formed into small cakes and deep-fried for a starter that wakes up the taste buds .

Yum Yai salad meshes Thai tastes together in a meal that is boldly flavoured yet easy on the waistline . Tender pieces of shrimp , squid and chicken are scattered throughout sliced onions and carrots on a bed of shredded lettuce and chopped herbs , topped with a fried egg . Chile-lime dressing adds zest and heat while peanuts provide the crunch factor .
Spicy , sweet and sour blend impeccably in Pra Som Rot , a seafood stir-fry with a mix of vegetables including bamboo shoots , a traditional Thai ingredient . The salmon ' s delicate flavour pairs perfectly with the authentically spiced sauce . A side of sweet coconut rice provides a way to soak up the extra sauce , which cannot be left behind .
For dessert , crispy spring rolls — drizzled with honey and filled with hot banana slices that ooze out upon first bite — hit all the right notes .
Sukhothai is open Mon-Fri 11:30 am-10:15 pm , Sat-Sun 3:00 pm-10:15 pm .

Anthony Bourdain declared Vietnam his first love and its food one of his greatest pleasures of life ; a place that “ grabs you and never lets you go .”
The country has a food culture with few culinary inhibitions . Traditional dishes influenced by neighbours China , Laos and Cambodia — as well as traces of French colonialism like crusty baguettes — offer flavour mash ups of sweet and salty , fresh and fermented , spice and cooling .
Vietnamese cuisine in Winnipeg had a start in the usual way : a family arriving from another place with
