Nhu Lan

September 21, 2014


It's difficult to become by a practiced vegetarian banh mi - we've had to a greater extent than or less luck amongst a seitan-based version at Tan Truc Giang inwards Footscray together with the mock-pork diversity at Fina's, together with convey incorporated a Vegan Dad-inspired version into our dwelling identify cooking roster. Still, we're ever on the spotter for more, together with so nosotros were pretty excited when Olaf left us a comment recommending Nhu Lan inwards Richmond. We took payoff of a sunny Dominicus afternoon to become together with banking concern jibe it out (as an aside: nosotros honey it when people recommend identify or recipes to us - delight create piece of job out a comment hither or chase us upward on Facebook or Twitter).


Nhu Lan is a classic Vietnamese bakery - no fuss, no chit chat, merely speedy service, made to guild sandwiches together with a decent arrive at of sweetness materials together with pastries. It's all pretty pork heavy, but the $4.50 tofu gyre is clearly marked on the menu. Vegans volition request to endure clear that they don't desire butter or mayonnaise, but the residue of the fillings are pretty straightforward: grated carrot, slivers of cucumber, coriander, chilli together with tofu.


Unlike our Fina's together with Tan Truc Giang experiences, this isn't actually trying to mimic the pork gyre - the tofu is lightly battered rectangles amongst a slightly sweetness marinade. The chilli provides the necessary seize amongst teeth together with the fresh, crunchy gyre is summit notch. I mean value I nonetheless favour the seitan-based version, but this is a cheap, tardily together with delicious luncheon inwards Richmond if you lot don't convey fourth dimension for a sit down downwards repast at Fina's or Thanh Nga 9.

It seems equally though the Footscray branch of Nhu Lan is popular amongst bloggers, but non many convey reviewed the Richmond 1 - Ministry of Gluttony together with teenagefoodie weren't wowed, field krapow  together with Swimming inwards Coffee were much to a greater extent than enthused.
