Stay-at-homers rejoice! Nam Do @dtn.nam and Annie Duong are opening Fusion Cafe @fusioncafe_ponsonby throughout the Christmas holidays, until Saturday 28 December. In the lead-up to Christmas, they have been upholding Yuletide traditions, from decorations to Santa hats. This hardworking couple and crew serve great cafe food with a smile and a friendliness that’s infectious. Nam was seen cleaning out the fireplace and flue last week so Santa will be sliding down the chimney at midnight to deliver more goodies. Son Jayden is super excited.

You know it's really Christmas when your soft-boiled egg comes with a Santa hat. Guaranteed to bring a smile to any old Scrooge and children who want to play with their food. The Santa egg cosies have been freshly knitted by Fusion Cafe’s barista and front of house, Nhi Tran. You have 11 more breakfasts to have your fill of the jolly Santa egg, reindeer not guaranteed but soldiers are. #eggcosy #santahat #christmasspirit #fusioncafeponsonby (at Fusion Cafe) https://www.instagram.com/p/B5_q2CmJ99C/?igshid=1onrbzdankomj

Phở Bò and Bánh Mì, the real Vietnamese. Introducing food personality Grant Allen @grantallencookltd to some fair dinkum Vietnamese fare at Uncle’s local, Fusion Cafe. The Phở Bò (Rice Noodle Soup) was so good, Grant prised every detail from owners Nam and Annie - yes the beef stock has been cooking away for 12 hours, the slices of seared beef is beef brisket. No wonder Pho has been described as a Vietnamese national treasure. Uncle shared his Bánh Mì with Grant: a crispy baguette slathered with chicken liver pate, house-made mayo, pickled radish, carrot and chicken marinaded in a lemongrass sauce, topped with coriander and fresh-cut red chilli. Grant is so impressed with the pho and Bánh Mì he's sending these shots of lunch to his Japanese hosts in Tokyo where he’s headed on Thursday. Thank you Nam for being so forthcoming with what would normally be a closely guarded recipe. #phở #phởbo #bánhmì #vietnamese #fusioncafeponsonby #realmccoy #vietnameselunch (at Fusion Cafe) https://www.instagram.com/p/B2f9T49JUBP/?igshid=2qqeiy9w9t2l

T H E C O U N T D OW N C O U P L E It might be a bit far for Uncle Charles & Aunty Janet when they move to new digs in Henderson so before they officialLy become your proverbial Westie, they have been dropping in to see Nam and Annie at Fusion Cafe. Aunty Janet says she's always had great meals here. So she surprised us by ordering the Sizzling Steak (done rare) with crispy chips. Aunty must be reprising her role in the Countdown ad when she screams ”More steak!” to the hapless Uncle Charles as he shuffles to the supermarket at Aunty’s bidding. Uncle Charles always has the Banh Mi so he’s always happy, today with beef. I went for the traditional rice vermicelli with crispy chicken while the Countdown Couple shared the beef rice noodles with nước chấm. The Bún Chay rice vermicelli is one of the new Vietnamese dishes in Fusion’s winter menu, the other being the rice bowl. After a respite, the Countdown Couple were seduced by the charms of the banoffee pie. It definitely rounded up a perfect lunch, for good times sake. #countdowncouple #fusioncafeponsonby #jervoisroad #sizzlingsteak #banhmi #ricevermicelli #ricebowl #vietnamesefood #banoffeepie (at Fusion Cafe) https://www.instagram.com/p/BzJpd_BpEnL/?igshid=14f9fzjyr9wx8

M I N I M E Easter fun times with Nam and son Jayden who “works” part time during the school holidays. Today’s soft boiled egg & soldiers came with a selection of egg cosys. The hot cross bun was too big to fit a cosy. #happyeaster #softboiledegg #eggcosy #hotcrossbuns #fusioncafeponsonby #jervoisrd #minime (at Fusion Cafe) https://www.instagram.com/p/BwflboOhkxx/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=8h6rqq5m0t8v
