What makes Com Com Restaurant’s Xoi Ga so special?
At Com Com Restaurant, we understand that Xôi Gà is more than just a dish; it’s an experience. We begin with the highest quality glutinous rice, soaking it for hours to achieve the perfect sticky texture. Our chicken is marinated in a blend of traditional Vietnamese spices, then shredded and expertly combined with fragrant herbs and fried shallots. The result is a dish that is both comforting and exciting, a true testament to the sophistication of Vietnamese street food. But what truly sets our Xôi Gà apart is the passion we pour into every bowl, ensuring that each bite is a journey through the heart of Vietnamese cuisine.
