The newly opened Marrickville restaurant is a little more refined – perfect for a night out with family or friends. Highlights on the menu include exquisite golden fried soft shell crab in a fruit tamarind glaze, smoked duck with a seasonal fruit salad and prawns stir-fried in a chilli basil sauce with crispy Vietnamese rice bubbles and okra!

The delicacies served at all Bau Truong restaurants are safely guarded recipes which stem from the fond childhood memories of a Vietnamese migrant, Bac Cang Nghieu.

Bac Cang grew up with the fragrant aroma of fermenting fish all around her. Her grandfather’s fish sauce manufacturing business was where she spent much of her childhood days. Fish sauce is of course, a crucial element in what defines Vietnamese cuisine.

From its humble roots in Belvedere Arcade in Cabramatta, the name Bau Truong is nowadays synonymous with quality refined Vietnamese dining.
