The Heart of Com Com: A Story of Flavour and Family
Com Com, meaning “rice rice” in Vietnamese, reflects the centrality of rice in Vietnamese cuisine. It’s more than just a staple; it’s a symbol of nourishment, community, and tradition. Our restaurant was born from a passion for sharing the authentic flavours of our family recipes, passed down through generations. We believe in using the freshest ingredients, respecting traditional techniques, and adding our own creative touches to elevate the street food experience.

The Essential Building Blocks of Vietnamese Cuisine
Vietnamese cuisine relies on a harmonious balance of sweet, sour, salty, spicy, and bitter flavours. Fresh herbs like mint, cilantro, and Thai basil play a starring role, adding aromatic complexity to every dish. Fish sauce, a fermented condiment made from anchovies, provides a savoury depth that is uniquely Vietnamese. Other key ingredients include rice noodles, vibrant vegetables, and a variety of proteins, from succulent pork to fresh seafood. At Com Com, we source the finest ingredients to ensure every bite is bursting with authentic Vietnamese flavour.
