Offering Vietnamese street food and festival favourites, including bun bowls, spring rolls, whole coconuts, incredible Vietnamese Iced coffee the star of the show, loaded banh mi. The absolute stand out here? Chip on a stick with the most insane seasoning (you’re going to steal this from the kids and have to return for more, trust us) and the epic slow cooked beef short rib bahn mi. A whole short rib, bone in (don’t worry it slides out as the meat聽 falls off the bone and into the crunchy soft vietnaese roll. Drool. Best Fringe food find of all time. Big call. Standing by it.聽
