Here's another place to file under lockdown silver linings: a tiny Indonesian-inspired sandwich shop with excellent coffee and a bright, poppy interior.
It's owned by chef Barry Susanto and his old friend, barista Erwin Chandra. Together, they're bringing authentic regional Indonesian flavours in an exuberantly inauthentic form to the Richmond backstreets.
The pair have long been frustrated that the incredible diversity of their home country's cuisine is little known by many in Melbourne. Susanto had the idea of putting some of his favourites into sandwiches: surely everything is accessible when it's slapped between bread?
Richmond's tiny Indonesian sandwich shop is worth crossing town for.
