Bang Tang - Sydney

Fresh south eastern Asian flavours at this Potts Point local. Menu is fantastic there are so many delicious options to choose that it can be tricky but the staff are super friendly and available to offer recommendations. Alcohol available including a great selection or organic and vegan wines. Outdoor seating is perfect for the warmer weather.

Inspired by the flavours of South East Asian classics, Bang Tang is serving up some fresh and healthy dishes with an emphasis on FLAVOUR. Their Big Bowls are where they excel: think bright and tangy salads, spicy meats, slippery noodles and fluffy rice coming together in generous serving bowls to share with a crowd or for one hungry human. All the dishes were delicious with my faves being the Duck It Up and the Juicy Pork Belly Bowl, this one is highly recommended folks, check them out!

Bang Tang‘s name has some pizazz to it, and so does this restaurant. As we approach the restaurant on Victoria Street in Potts Point, we hear the vibe, with some funky tunes pumping from the speakers. The Asian inspired restaurant stands out in its location with the small bright pink neon sign which contrasts the drab brick apartment block that sits above. Bang Tang is quaint restaurant with more seating outdoors than in, but it’s all good since they have blankets and outdoor heaters and an awning just in case. It has very much a fun street eat feel.

Bang Tang is a hidden gem located on the quieter side of Potts Point. Tucked away on Victoria Street, you will find this Asian inspired eatery which taking you on a culinary journey through various parts of Asia (Japan, Thailand and Vietnam). . We began with a couple starters which included the cigar rolls, tuna bomb and vegan gyoza. The cigar roll is essentially a crispy spring roll but with an amazing twist. This spring roll will blow your mind with tom yum and coconut flavours exploding in your mouth. It was a truly spectacular way to start the dining experience. The tuna bomb is a tuna croquette served with spicy mayo. Lastly, we enjoyed the crispy vegan gyoza with cabbage, radish and carrot. We felt like we traveled to Thailand and Japan in the starters alone.

It is hard to choose a winner from my lunch at Bang Tang.  The truth is I couldn’t fault any of the dishes and the flavours were totally on point. The best part is all my dietary requirements are met from the menu and I don’t feel restricted in choosing the dish I want.  Bang Tang is a healthy treat without the compromise of flavour.
