Yep will do. Wasn't actually lacking meat but the quality of the meat means it probably deserves the extra.

Could potentially become my favourite and its about 20 minutes into the 40 minute drive to and from work so I think I will be frequenting a lot more.

Yep, couldn't agree more. Not even worth responding too. Gutter trash

I do hesitate to do reviews on there for several reasons...

1. Obviously there are fools on there I have no interest conversing with.
2. Because generally I don't have the time but there is not much happening in the Football world ATM.
3. One of the great appeals of a VDR is you see it get made and it is fresh, quick and easy. I know Lemongrass went from awesome to annoying very quickly as you had to place an order and wait after a couple of months. In hindsight sharing the hidden gems is probably not in my best interest.

I think my reviews might stay on this page as I don't like waiting and not much good comes from anything on that page...except for the 100 likes that validates my entire existence ;)

I havent done many reviews on there, actually probably only Hoangs .. Keep meaning to try others but only living around the corner I always stick with their tried and true Pups.

KGs is only 5 mins or so from there and goes OK. Smaller pups and a different flavour as they are pate free but at $4.30 you can't go wrong.

The one on Hanson Road as well is excellent. Pho Xiang or something like that. It is Mrs Wristys favourite

The one across from Regency tafe is in my top 3 but always too busy

All within ten mins of your neck of the woods

After hearing and reading good things about this breeder I took a small detour to sample the quality of the pups. Please note that I did not tell her she was being reviewed until post pup delivery to ensure the integrity of an unbiased review.

SERVICE/STORE - I was greeted by the lady in the photo who welcomed me happily with a smile and VDR chit chat she seemed genuinely nice, she also may have been Vietnamese which cant be a bad thing. She said that she was very pleased to have my business and "hop I wool weturn". Shop looked clean and I did not have to wait a second upon arrival 5/5
WOLL - crunchy on the outside and soft in the middle. She said she took great pride in her rolls and I couldn't fault them, good size too. When I got out of the car my shirt and pants look like I had accosted by a pack of angry bread rolls who had violently sprayed their crumbs all over me. I was left a pleasant mess. Cost was $4.80 - 5/5
POK/CRACKLE - The money shot for a VDR was right on the money. Pork was beautiful without being fatty. The crackle was nice and had a combination of both chewy and crunchy. Whilst you may get more Pok at some breeders it was a fair portion and the taste was sensational 4.5/5
SARRED - The carrot had a delicate hint of pickle that complimented but not over powered. Cucumber was standard and I even had a small dabble of red onion just for a hint of crunch and texture but this also wasn't overpowering to the subtle flavours of a perfectly bred pup. Sorry I loathe coriander so I never have it and cant report on that. Only fault no Diakon - 4/5
OTHER - Sometimes I have chilli, sometimes I don't. On this occasion I didn't because as much as I like it sometimes it can dilute the overall authentic flavours and as I was popping my Hoang cherry I wanted to really orally investigate and have my taste buds give it an in depth analysis of each individual flavour as it filtered through the mouth and into the gullet. She buttered one side of the roll and put pate on the other, not sure if she added the soy at the end or not as I was salivating by that point. Pate was superb and added to experience and the "other" ingredient's complimented but not overshadow the main event. - 4.5/5

FINAL SCORE - 4.5/5. If they provide consistency this breeder has the potential to be a TOP 3. Highly recommend 8)

Anyone ventured down to the coconut kitchen on beach road Christies Beach?

When it opened late last year the rolls where great now the filling has halved.
$5 per roll
I believe Strawberry Fair on south road to be the best I have had.

The rolls are very solid, consistent and rarely disappoint.

Good review. ;)



Cheers, a keyboard moron on the facebook site has teed off on me for it.

I wish I had a job where it didn't matter what you did or said on social media ;) Surely these people know that every prospective employer checks your history now. That group is full of some of the worst filth on Facebook.

Back on topic I thought it was better than Strawberry fair and on par with the late Lemongrass


Yeah, Lemongrass was an absolute gem of a place to go to, the rolls were pretty good too!!

The missus just sent me a photo of one she got on the Parade. Looked average, was $7.50 :shock: and had some sort of pork extender or pork deli loaf in it to beef it up. Will not be returning. Very poor VDR :evil:

After not being overly impressed first time around, decided to give Fulham Gardens Bakery another go. Was a bit sus at the beginning when Pate was absent, but was all upside from there.
ROLL - crunchy outside, soft inside. Crumbs galore. Perfect!
SALAD - Fresh & Tasty, sensational.
PORK - might have been a bit lucky here as it had just come out of the oven. Incredible taste and amount, crackling awesome too. Like Katie Perry just performed a Lapdance on my tongue.
CHIRRI - driving along and scoffing Id forgotten Id asked for extra. Then it hit. Bugger me, I couldn't taste Katie Perry anymore, in fact I couldn't even think about her or anything else.
COST - $5.
Despite the lack of Pate this was the best roll Ive had to date. Could not recommend highly enough.

Had my first ever Pup from there several years ago before I knew what all the fuss was about. From memory it was pretty decent.

Not sure mate but I'd guess that's about right .. 2 or 3 shops down from Cheap As Chips. Their Chicken looked good too (not that I ever order it at kennels)
