SYDNEY CHEAP EATS under $10 Challenge! Bankstown Food Tour

[@Dobuan75]

Thanks for the heads up! Bankstown has been an stretch to far previously from where I live on the Lower North Shore, but I’ve just recently “discovered” bits of it, and I’m super-excited for the Metro to get there as my local station is only a 10 minute walk and then a direct train there! It’ll be awesome when that happens!

[@BucketListTravellers]

Nice! Yes, we reckon Bankstown is very underrated and were blown away with the food scene there. The metro is going to do wonders for it. Thanks for watching!

[@Ceemarak8]

Good morning to you both thankyou so very much for sharing 🙏🏽♥🧿💯👏💐🌺🌹🙏🏽Lebanese sweets look soo delicious 🙏🏽🙏🏽♥♥and so does everything else in Bankstown 🙏🏽♥♥you should also try in Punchbowl lots of beautiful food and sweets here. ♥🙏🏽

[@BucketListTravellers]

Hi @Ceemarak8, thanks so much for watching and for your recommendation to visit Punchbowl. We are currently researching it and might do a food tour there later on in the year. Any particular restaurants you recommend?

[@MarijaDuffin]

There's a lot more a at Bankstown as well you guys coming back to try some more foods 🤙

[@BucketListTravellers]

Yes, you are right! Bankstown was such an awesome and underrated foodie destination. We'll be back for sure! Got any recommendations for us for next time?

Hi 🤗! Wondering if there's public transport from Sydney center to the bankstown area. Looks like a neat place to have som eats. 😋

[@BucketListTravellers]

Hi @connieg7692, there certainly is public transport. Normally there is a train all the way to Bankstown from the city, but they are doing track upgrades. So what you will need to do is take the train to lidcombe, then get on a bus (that city rail provide) to Bankstown station. Thanks for watching and enjoy your own foodie tour in Bankstown!!

That’s the best Bahn mi in Sydney I reckon mate.. Bankstown

[@BucketListTravellers]

Hi @wazzasometings5469, we love a good banh mi and the one we tried here was definitely a contender! We always assumed that the best banh mis would be in Cabramatta, but now not so sure. Thanks for watching!

[@wazzasometings5469]

@@BucketListTravellers Cabramatta too light on vegetables, and some have too much but I think Bankstown gets it right… Top Bakery in Ryde too much fillings drowns the flavour lol

[@BucketListTravellers]

You sound like you know your Banh Mi's! Thanks for sharing. We've considered doing a 'top 5 Banh mis in sydney' video. Where outside bankstown would you recommend? We'll try Cabramatta, but not sure elsewhere.

[@Coolwow437]

@@BucketListTravellersyou should try marrickville banh mi

The turkish tea is often given for free at the end of meals at Turkish restaurants many places when you eat in.

[@BucketListTravellers]

That is a really nice custom. Thanks for watching!

[@dlgregory35]

Have to ask this when was this video put online I am asking as you mention bananas in Bankstown at $1 Australian per kilogram. When was this? I have not seen bananas at anywhere near that price for years and I live in Sydney.

[@BucketListTravellers]

Hi there, we filmed this video in January 2024. We were as surprised as you were!

[@mariamazzi7649]

From Lebanese bakery is very very expensive meat pizza 🍕 and verv fine to dear libanees food in Bankstown

[@BucketListTravellers]

Hi @mariamazzi7649, thanks for watching our video! Do you have any suggestions for good cheap lebanese places to visit in Bankstown?

@@alanaisaiah3693 Thanks for the suggestion!!

[@alanaisaiah3693]

@@BucketListTravellers no problem, I live in Bankstown lol. Let me know if there is any type of place you need suggestions for in the area, lived here my whole life and married a Lebanese man so his family approve of the food there lol.

[@coopsnz1]

[@BucketListTravellers]

Thanks for the suggestions. Got any recommendations for either place? We will be doing a chatswood food tour soon.

[@gyg8853]

$7 for a kimbap 🤣🤣🤣 rice and veggies yay

[@BucketListTravellers]

And ham! Now that you mention it, it sounds pretty exy. It was tasty though!🤤 Thanks for watching!

[@PoeticAmmunition.]

Did u eat all this in 1 day😅

[@BucketListTravellers]

😂😂 Yes and no! We filmed this all in one day but we had leftovers. We always bring containers to take home. Our most recent filming day last Friday filled 9 containers!

[@coopsnz1]

Vietnamese takeaway shop in Beecroft has crispy pork roll $11 give it a try

[@BucketListTravellers]

Thanks for the suggestion! We will be putting together a best banh mi in Sydney vlog soon, so will check this out!

You guys must be the one of the few to leave the insular peninsula 😂

[@BucketListTravellers]

🤣🤣🤣 For sure! They don't know what they are missing out on, there is much more to the Sydney food scene than overpriced cafes!😜 We've been thinking about a Northern beaches cheap eats video, but that got put in the too hard basket!

[@daisy9910]

@@BucketListTravellers as an ex Collaroy girl, I'm afraid there isn't anything cheap there.

[@BucketListTravellers]

@@daisy9910 Unfortunately not, but it is a beautiful part of the world! We regularly head to Dee Why for our fruit and veges. The last bastion of reasonable prices on the beaches! - Jon

@@BucketListTravellers is that the fruit and vege shop in the arcade? They were my go to last time I was there.

[@BucketListTravellers]

شكرا جزيلا وشكرا للمشاهدة!

[@peterbreis5407]

It is ridiculous to expect Sydney to be like some third world nation you have been hanging around in. Do you expect their wages, infrastructure and social conditions as well?

[@BucketListTravellers]

Hi Peter, thanks for watching. Funnily enough, our internet speeds in Nicaragua were better than our home internet in Sydney 4 years ago. I definitely didn't expect that!

[@mariamazzi7649]

I’m not going to libanees food street it’s ridiculous and expensive to snd yak service and dirty place

[@PoeticAmmunition.]

What ? Lebanese are extremely clean especially when it comes to the kitchen

[@apitameer4324]

back to Malaysia guys.... Ramadhan Bazaar Mee Kari & Nasi Kerabu

[@BucketListTravellers]

We would love to experience a Ramadan Bazaar in Malaysia. That said, yesterday we visited a Sydney Ramadan Night market. We'll have that video ready in the next couple of days, so be on the look out for that! Does it compare well to Malaysia? Watch it to find out!
