A tiny alley joint, seriously pig-obsessed
The Hungry Pig hides in alley 40 off Bùi Viện — a café-slash-sandwich bar obsessed with bacon, with a witty hand-written menu, serving from early morning to early evening.
Three reasons to get hungry
No frills, no gimmicks — just bacon, stacked sandwiches, and good cheer.
Bacon on everything
Famously bacon-mad — crispy smoked pork on the sandwiches, the burgers, basically everything.
A witty hand-written menu
The hand-written menu board is full of jokes — reading it is half the fun.
A proper alley joint
A real alley storefront off Bùi Viện with upstairs seating — small, warm, properly Saigon.
Small, warm, smelling of bacon
Ground floor plus a mezzanine, simple wooden tables — the smell of smoked pork greets you from the alley door.

A pig-mad café in backpackerland
In the middle of buzzing Bùi Viện, one small shop thinks about exactly one thing: how to make the pig taste even better.
Bacon is the main character
Crispy smoked pork shows up all over the menu — sandwiches, burgers, everything gets a share.
An alley joint, at heart
Alley 40, Bùi Viện — a small front, a cozy mezzanine, a proper Saigon alley joint.
The menu is a read
The hand-written menu is full of witty lines — the food is good and the words are charming.
Breakfast, lunch, or a late-afternoon bite — there's always hot bacon waiting.
