History

Vietnamese refugees arrived in Brisbane post-1975 in large numbers, settling particularly in the southwestern suburb of Inala and the southern suburb of Darra. The first Vietnamese bakeries opened in Inala in the late 1970s, baking French-style baguettes (taught by colonial-era French bakers in Vietnam) and filling them with pork pate, charcuterie and pickled vegetables. The banh mi sandwich became the everyday Brisbane Vietnamese lunch staple. Today Yen's, Hung Cuong and other Inala bakeries serve the same recipe for A$8-12 a sandwich, while Sunnybank's Vietnamese precinct hosts dozens of competing counters.
