KFC’s New Zinger Bánh Mì Takes a Fiery Twist on a Vietnamese Classic

KFC Australia has done it again—pushing the boundaries of fast food innovation with a bold new creation that’s already stirring excitement (and maybe a little debate) across the country. Say hello to the Zinger Bánh Mì , a fiery, flavour-packed mashup that brings together the best of both worlds—KFC’s signature spice and the vibrant freshness of a Vietnamese classic.

Launching nationwide from Tuesday, November 4 through Monday, December 1 , this limited-edition sandwich gives Aussies something to look forward to at smoko. Priced at $9.95 , the Zinger Bánh Mì takes KFC’s famous Zinger fillet and layers it with crisp slaw, fresh chillies, coriander, a tangy Bánh Mì mayo, and a generous drizzle of Supercharged sauce , all tucked neatly into a crusty baguette. It’s a full-on fusion of textures and flavours—spicy, crunchy, creamy, and unmistakably KFC.

According to Sally Spriggs , KFC Australia’s group marketing director, this new item captures the essence of the brand’s fun, flavour-forward spirit. “At KFC, we love putting our own spin on iconic flavours,” she said. “The Zinger Bánh Mì is bold, fresh, and unapologetically Finger Lickin’ Good—it’s the perfect mix of spice, freshness, and texture.”

For those who want a bigger meal, the Zinger Bánh Mì can also be ordered in a Combo (with chips and a drink for $13.95) or as part of a Box Meal ($16.95) that includes two pieces of Hot & Crispy boneless chicken, potato and gravy, chips, and a drink.

This isn’t the first time KFC has dabbled in international fusion. In recent years, the fast-food giant has served up everything from Zinger nachos to the Wafu Cutlet Burger , and even hosted an 11-course degustation dinner in partnership with Australian chef Nelly Robinson. Each release seems to tap into the growing appetite for bold, cross-cultural flavour experiences—and this new Bánh Mì-inspired twist is no exception.

Food fans and bloggers are already buzzing. Popular food reviewer Nectro Vlangos , known online as Nectorious Papi , praised KFC’s adventurous spirit, saying he’s eager to try the new sandwich and hopes to see even more experimentation in the future—especially when it comes to desserts.

So, whether you’re in it for the spice, the crunch, or just to see what KFC dreams up next, the Zinger Bánh Mì is here for a limited time only . And judging by the early reaction, this “match made in flavour heaven” might just be one of KFC’s most talked-about creations yet.

Smoko, it seems, just got seriously upgraded.
