"In late 2019, chef Diane Lam started her pop-up, Sunshine Noodles. She served Phnom Penh noodles and turmeric pancakes while bartender David Sigal made cocktails, a lively and boisterous dinner that fit the free-spirited chef. At the time, she was still the chef de cuisine at Revelry, which has since closed; after leaving Revelry, she brought Sunshine Noodles to the patio at North Mississippi bar Psychic, then on hiatus. The new Sunshine was a takeout version of the pop-up, with Vietnamese beef stew (bo kho) and lime pepper chicken wings served in takeout containers on the plant-lined patio. Over time, Psychic reopened, and Lam dramatically changed the food program at the bar, instead focusing on Cambodian fried chicken and rice via her new takeout-and-delivery based restaurant, Prey + Tell. In the two years between then and now, Lam has grown exponentially as a chef and business woman: running the kitchen at Revelry in the grips of the COVID-19 pandemic, launching her own fried chicken brand, and managing a bar on North Mississippi. Soon, however, she’ll bring back Sunshine Noodles as a restaurant, taking over the former XLB location in Northwest Portland." - Brooke Jackson-Glidden
