I’ve been to Tramsheds a number of times since it opened. The variety of cuisines is good, parking is easy, and you can finish off any visit with a gelato from Messina!
I’ve been to Mama’s Buoi in Crows Nest, and enjoyed it. The menu at the three Sydney venues differs slightly and I liked the look of some of the Tramshed dishes (the Small People are also getting into Vietnamese), so off we went.
As you’d expect with Vietnamese there are lots of herbs, lots of vegetables, a bit of spice. Service was efficient if not particularly friendly. The pricing is also very reasonable for the serving size. My picks were the duck pancakes, the salt and pepper squid, and the fragrant beef with the greens.
Pulled Duck Pancake with pineapple, pickled carrots, mixed herbs & honey
Vietnamese salt & pepper squid with Mama’s secret spices
Marinated Chicken Skewers with pickled vegetables, lettuce cups & nước mắm sauc
Crispy Fried Soft Shell Crab with a green papaya salad
Mama’s Beef Stir Fry with lemongrass, Asian broccoli, chilli & oyster sauce
Wok Tossed Seafood with lemongrass, tiger prawns, squid and ling
Ginger chicken stir fry with onion, shiitake mushrooms, green shallots, sesame oil and oyster sauce
Special Crab Fried Rice with onion, coriander, fried egg & lime dressing
For other Tramsheds visits, have a look at Flour Eggs Water and Osaka Trading Co.

Have yet to check out Mama’s Buoi here. Great to see more Asian offerings at the Tramsheds though!
