Great Aunty Three

A global taste in a local town

PHO

Our signature Pho broth recipe has been a secret family recipe dating back over 100 years. Our broth is slow cooked to perfection, perfectly balanced, aromatic with lots of depth, not overly seasoned. We source premium fresh local produce and premium grade cuts for that traditional pho experience.

Rice Bowl seasonal specials

Our signature rice bowls are generously served with a side of fresh garden salad and your choice of a sunny side up egg or protein, served with fried shallots and a delicious dipping sauce.

Vegetarian rice net spring rolls

If you thought spring rolls were great, wait until you try these. They are made from super thin rice vermicelli, delicately wrapped with a vegetarian filling to create that incredible crisp crunch.

Signature Rice Paper Rolls

Vego Delight, Tofu & Apple, Roast Pork & Apple, Chicken & Avocado, Tiger Prawn. We’d call these our “ready-to-eat” bite sized vermicelli (without the bowl), but rice papers will do. We select and only use premium quality vermicelli, rice papers and wrap them up with your favourite proteins and fresh veg, with our signature dipping sauce.

Vermicelli Noodle salad

Our signature vermicelli noodle salad bowls are the perfect light meal for when you feel like something tasty but not too heavy. Each bowl is generously served with loads of fresh colorful vegies with your choice of protein and perfectly paired with our signature house made dipping sauce.

Steamed Buns

The reason why we selected this on our menu is because they are delicious and vegetarian (even though it tastes just like BBP Pork Buns)! Very addictive and a popular light snack or fill-me-upper.

The Our Journey

Our Journey

Great Aunty Three

My grandmother is the culinary queen in our family. Every time I go to Vietnam everybody talks about her food, about the successful restaurant she owned, they rave on about it, I still hear it!” – Michael, creator of Great Aunty Three – Vietnamese street food in Sydney’s Enmore.

Growing up in an old-fashioned Vietnamese household, great importance was placed on traditional family recipes and shared mealtimes.

On his first trip back to Can Tho in exploration of his roots, Michael came across the phenomenon of street food, the spark that ignited his entrepreneurial idea. Wanting to capture that experience and bring it to Australia, Michael reshaped his career and forfeited the stability of a 9 to 5 job in favour of starting his own business.

Armed with the knowledge and recipes from his Grandmother Ba (which in Vietnamese means ‘three’), and support from his mother, Michael began drafting a plan to open what would later become Great Aunty Three. Established 2011.

About Our Founder

These fellas do one of Sydney’s best bánh mì. At this tiny Enmore corner shop, the Vietnamese pork rolls are a little different to what you’ll find at your local hot bread store. Instead of traditional pig cold-cuts, bite into some roast pork and crackling with green apple, or roast duck with watercress. The combo of slow-cooked meats with cucumber, carrot, daikon, and paté is heaven in a roll. Some ground rules: grab plenty of napkins, always say yes to Sriracha, and pair with a fresh fruit shake. You’ve got a meal made.

This is hipster pho with a solid pedigree – the recipe is passed on from owner Michael Le’s maternal grandmother. It’s a fragrant bowl, thanks to basil and star anise. While you’re there, go the whole hog and order a gourmet banh mi, fresh roll and a glass of Vietnamese coffee.

Good Food – “Sydney’s Best Pho”

The banh mi are the winning ticket here. A gussied-up version of the Vietnamese street food, these are slightly bigger than your standard bakery roll, with some fancy fillings. Caramelised pork belly slow-cooked in coconut juice is balanced out by a densely packed salad of shredded carrot, coriander, cucumber, and green onion stems. The addition of slices of tart green apple is a masterstroke and, in the absence of crisp crackling pieces, a sprinkling of toasted pumpkin seeds fills the required crunch quota.
