About Kim's Asian Cuisine

Hefty, crackling banh mi rolls draw steady lunchtime queues across Melrose Park for good reason. Counter staff keep the line moving fast, stuffing crunchy baguettes to bursting with roast pork crackling, pickled carrots, and fresh herbs. Longtime regulars frequently ask for the crackling pork served in a wrap or pack up standalone containers of roast pork to take home. Steaming bowls of pho and hot Vietnamese coffee round out the menu for an easy sit-down lunch.

  • Loaded Banh Mi: Crunchy baguettes packed heavy with crispy roast pork crackling and pickled vegetables.
  • Bread Alternative Wraps: Sandwich fillings can be ordered inside a wrap instead of the traditional crusty bread roll.
  • Crispy Pork by the Container: Roast crispy pork available to purchase in full takeaway containers.

  • Customizable Wrap Option

    Customers who prefer avoiding traditional baguettes can request their banh mi fillings wrapped instead.

    Oh and also if you don’t have the bread roll, which is me, ask for the wrap instead, it’s really nice!
