Frequently asked questions
Where is Com Tam Chi Hong?
It is on Calmette in District 4, the dense neighbourhood just across the canal from District 1. It is a street-food spot rather than a restaurant, so look for the crowd rather than a sign.
What is com tam?
Com tam means broken rice: fractured grains that were once sold cheaply and are now a Saigon staple in their own right. It is usually served with grilled pork, pickled vegetables, a fried egg and a bowl of nuoc cham on the side.
Is Com Tam Chi Hong expensive?
No. It is priced as neighbourhood street food rather than as a restaurant meal, which is a large part of why it stays busy. Bring cash.
