there's a very popular banh mi shop across from the main train station entrance, past the tram stop and near the bus stops
but Footscray is looking pretty run down and dodgy, think the worst parts of Richmond
Eh, the most transport central bit is doing pretty well but the edges are certainly run down and emptying rapidly. There were a couple of nasty fires, and a bunch of landlords who fail to see an empty shop earns less than an occupied one at less exorbitant rent. Damn pity.
