About Mr & Mrs Banhmi

Hawthorn locals head here for crackling roast pork banh mi piled high on crisp rolls with mild pâté and house pickles. Plant-based regulars bypass standard tofu for vegan Peking duck, mock crispy chicken, or fresh rice paper rolls. Mornings belong to fried egg and Vietnamese sausage rolls, washed down with iced coffee and a warm cinnamon donut.

  • Plant-Based Variety: Plant-based diners can skip plain tofu for vegan crispy chicken, Peking duck, and house-made rice paper rolls.
  • Crackling Pork Belly: Crispy pork belly and roast pork arrive packed with mild pâté, pickled daikon, fresh coriander, and crisp crackling.
  • Breakfast Rolls & Donuts: Breakfast rolls feature fried egg and savory Vietnamese sausage, often paired with sweet cinnamon donuts.
