FAQs

No. The Zinger® Bánh Mì is a limited-time item. It was last sold from early November to December 1st. Check the KFC Australia app or website to see if it is available now.
2. Does the Bánh Mì roll have the same crunchy texture as a real Vietnamese roll?
Not exactly. It uses a special baguette-style roll, which is different from the soft burger bun. But some people say it is not as crispy and light as a traditional Vietnamese bánh mì roll.
3. Is the Zinger® Bánh Mì spicier than the Zinger Burger?
Yes. It is usually spicier. It has the spicy Zinger fillet, Supercharged Sauce, and fresh chilli slices, plus slaw that makes the heat feel stronger.
