Annamese Vietnamese by Ming Ming in Brisbane

Proper Northern Vietnamese fare—right on George Street. Annamese by Ming Ming delivers an elevated, deeply authentic take on Hanoi classics. No shortcuts. Just serious flavor. Diners constantly point to the grilled pork bún chả as the most accurate rendition this side of the equator. The absolute power move? Starting with blisteringly crisp mud crab spring rolls and beef betel leaf resting on delicate bánh hỏi noodles. Brisbane’s serious eaters are obsessed with the nostalgic comfort of their slow-cooked pork belly—a bubbling clay pot of rich, caramelized brilliance studded with quail eggs. Midday solo missions call for the lunch menu's massive, fragrant bowls of phở. Wash it all down with a tart Chanh Sả cocktail. Warm hospitality, exceptional vegan and gluten-free flexibility, and a chic, cozy dining room. A masterclass in Northern Vietnamese cuisine.
