The Essence of “Com Com”: A Taste of Home
The name “Com Com” itself evokes a sense of comfort and familiarity, translating simply to “rice rice” in Vietnamese. Rice, a staple in Vietnamese cuisine, represents the heart of Vietnamese life, nurtured by the fertile Mekong Delta and emerald rice paddies that blanket the countryside. At Com Com, we honor this tradition, using only the finest quality rice to create dishes that transport you to the heart of Vietnam. Our chefs, hailing from different regions of Vietnam, bring their unique perspectives and family recipes to our menu, ensuring an authentic and diverse dining experience. Just like exploring the diverse landscapes of the UK, from the rugged peaks of Scotland to the rolling hills of the Cotswolds, Com Com offers a journey through the diverse culinary landscape of Vietnam.
From Market to Table: The Ingredients of Com Com
Just as the best natural places in the UK boast diverse flora and fauna, Vietnamese cuisine thrives on fresh, vibrant ingredients. Lemongrass, ginger, mint, and cilantro – these aromatic herbs, reminiscent of a stroll through a lush English garden, form the backbone of many of our dishes. We source our ingredients carefully, prioritizing quality and freshness, much like selecting the perfect spot for a picnic amidst the UK’s natural beauty. From the succulent prawns in our Pho to the crisp vegetables in our Goi Cuon, every ingredient is chosen to reflect the natural bounty of Vietnam.

For a lighter option, try our refreshing Goi Cuon (summer rolls), filled with vermicelli noodles, fresh herbs, and your choice of chicken, prawn, or vegetables.

Beyond the Basics: Tips and Variations
Want to add a little extra zest to your Pho? Try adding a squeeze of lime, a dash of sriracha, or some fresh chili slices. Feeling adventurous? Explore our Chef’s Specials, like the Cha Ca Ha Noi, a Hanoi specialty featuring turmeric fish with dill and vermicelli, or the Vit Lan, a flavorful stir-fried duck dish with galangal and shrimp paste. These unique dishes offer a glimpse into the regional variations of Vietnamese cuisine, mirroring the diverse landscapes of the UK, each with its own unique charm.
Nourishment from Nature: Health Benefits
Vietnamese cuisine is known for its healthy and balanced flavors. Fresh herbs, lean proteins, and plenty of vegetables make for a nutritious and satisfying meal. Pho, for instance, is a light yet nourishing soup, packed with protein and essential nutrients. Our vegetarian dishes, like Bun Nem Rau and Pho Chay, offer delicious and healthy options for those seeking plant-based meals. Just as a hike through the best natural places in the UK invigorates the body and soul, a meal at Com Com provides nourishment from the inside out.
