How we read reviews →St Kilda banh mi specialist famed for its crispy pork roll, though quality swings visit to visit.
A small, bustling St Kilda shopfront on Barkly Street with a handful of tables, built mainly for quick takeaway and constant delivery-app pickups, with no music inside for those dining in.
Freshly baked baguettes that stay crispy outside and soft inside, house pate and pickled vegetables, Vietnamese iced coffee, and a tofu banh mi for vegetarian diners.
Opinion is split: reviewers who've travelled in Vietnam call it deeply authentic, while others flag the lettuce and non-pork-belly roast pork as departures from a traditional banh mi.
Most reviewers call the $12 crispy pork banh mi excellent value for its size and quality, though a growing number since a reported ownership change cite rising prices alongside less consistent food.
