Vietnamese Street Food Grand Slam at Com Tam Ba Ghien!
More details about this amazing Vietnamese street food stall in Saigon called Cơm Tấm Ba Ghiền. Ready here ►
One of the most popular Vietnamese street food dishes to eat in Saigon is com tam suon nuong, the combination of broken rice with a grilled pork chop on top of it. It’s one of the most common Vietnamese food meals throughout the city, often available at street food restaurants and even more sit down restaurants as well. When I was in Saigon, eating com tam suon was one of my favorite meals, and I ate it frequently. But there was one place that I ate, known at Com Tam Ba Ghien, that topped all others.
Located on Đặng Văn Ngữ, just off Le Van Sy road in Saigon, Com Tam Ba Ghien is well known as one of the most legendary and most beloved restaurants that serves Vietnamese broken rice and pork chops. I could actually smell the aroma of the pork grilling when I was walking down the street to the restaurant - it was a beautiful smell. The restaurant does both takeaway and sit-in, and though there were plenty of people doing both, I decided to take a seat at the front of the restaurant at one of the communal metal tables. You could order just a typical plate of broken rice topped with a marinated grilled pork chop, but to go the extra mile, you’ve got to eat the grand slam of all Vietnamese dishes, known as cơm tấm bì chả sườn trứng ốp la, which basically translates to all things pig over a plate of broken rice with a fried egg on the top.
My order came to the table quickly after I had ordered it, and it was hot and fresh, the rice was soft and fluffy. The pork was then placed on top of the rice, a huge sized pork chop that was sweet and salty, probably marinated in a mixture of soy sauce and sugar, then grilled over hot coals until slightly charred on the outside and juicy and tender on the inside. Surrounding the pork chop came a slice of Vietnamese meatloaf known as cha trung hap. The meatloaf included a mixture of mung bean noodles and minced pork, seasoned with salt, pepper, and fish sauce, and topped with egg yolk. The Vietnamese meatloaf was pretty good, nice and salty with a delicious texture. Also on my plate of com tam suon was a pile of shredded pig skin, known in Vietnamese as bi. It wasn’t my favorite component of my meal, but wasn’t too bad - the skin was a little rubbery and chewy, with not much flavor. There was also so shredded pork meat, which was delicious. Finally, on the very top of my plate was an op la, a fried sunny side up egg. The egg added the absolute extra touch, both protein and the marvelous yolk sauce which coated everything and seeped down to the rice.
My plate of com tam suon nuong at Com Tam Ba Ghien was then drizzled in a spoon of scallion oil, and a scoop of Vietnamese cucumber, carrot, and daikon radish pickle. The final component of my meal was a side side of Vietnamese sweet fish sauce with a touch of chili in it as well. The mixture was absolutely sensational, everything from the pork to the meatloaf the pickles and sauce. Although com tam suon is popular and widely available throughout Saigon, one of the best and most famous is Com Tam Ba Ghien. If you love to eat grilled pork and rice, you’re absolutely going to love this restaurant when you’re in Vietnam.

Saigon Vietnam - exploring the view and eating the food.
Went to Bitexco Financial Tower to see the view then walked to go try some simple Vietnamese food.
First dish - Banh Xeo, literally sizzling cake, named for the loud sizzling sound it makes when the rice batter is poured into the hot skillet is a Vietnamese savory fried pancake made of rice flour, water, turmeric powder, stuffed with slivers of fatty pork, shrimp, diced green onion, and bean sprouts. - Wikipedia.
Wrap the banh xeo with some lettuce, dip it in fish sauce, and enjoy.
Grilled Rice Paper - It is a sheet of rice paper grilled over coals, and topped with quail eggs, dried pork, dried shrimp, shallots, and herbs.
It's very common to see a lot of street vendors serving this throughout the city. Give it a try. It should be less than 50 cents (USD).

HOPE -solo exhibition by Pham Huy Thong at Craig Thomas Gallery, Saigon 2015
Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam – Craig Thomas Gallery is pleased to announce Hope, a solo exhibition of paintings by Vietnam-based artist Pham Huy Thong. The cocktail reception opening of Hope on 11 December will also double as the grand opening of CTG’s second gallery space in Ho Chi Minh City. CTG’s second gallery is located at 165 Calmette Street in the central business district of Saigon.
Pham Huy Thong (b. 1981) is one of Vietnam’s most thoughtful and compelling young visual artists. A talented painter, Thong’s previous collections Dong Bao (2010) and Hands (2012) have demonstrated not only his technical finesse but also his relevance as a commentator on the social and polictical issues effecting Vietnam and the Southeast Asian region.
Thong commenced the Hope series in early 2014 with an aim towards focusing on issues relating to Vietnam’s rural farmers and urban poor. The
artist wishes to highlight how Vietnam’s recent process of urbanization and modernization has created and is exacerbating the gap between rich and poor in the country. Of the Hope series, Thong says:
“I want to portray images of famers in a spiral of economic changes. As in all developing economies, farmers in Vietnam have had to flee their homes and fields to get to the cities where they can find jobs and more secure incomes. As a result, village culture and family clan ties thousands of years in the making have been loosened. In my most recent paintings, I want to look more deeply but also more generally at the issues surrounding the process of a farmer leaving his ancestral village.The development of any big city actually involves the amalgamation and absorption of the diverse influences of its neighboring regions and can sometimes be understood in a way that is quite “mechanical.” Viewed through a cultural lens, the exchanges during migration involve accretions. Each person that leaves their village will bring to their new destination some of their homeland’s own distinctiveness or “local flavor.” In economic terms,
however, there is more of an exchange between rural people and their destination cities. These people go to the cities to find work and do not return until harvest time or when asked to return home to perform an important familial duty that cannot be refused. Bringing energy, time and even happiness to the city to sell, farmers purchase the chance of survival for their families. The exchange here can sometimes be conceived of as a form of “bet” when viewed from a psychological and religious perspective. By analyzing the observable factors, I want to touch on the string of connections between country people and the homelands lying behind them. With the three paintings Land for Sale, Hometown Along, and Homeland Burden, I have not incorporated the destination that these country people are heading towards as I did not want to make a choice between the image of an actual city or some happy abstract shore. Instead, I painted them in orientations of movement while still carrying pieces of their home villages with them. Home is the departure point but it is also something which is burdening them throughout their journeys. They go with the hopes of being able to send money back to their families, but in the process they also lose something of themselves and their roots in the effort to make their bread and butter.”
Pham Huy Thong graduated from the Hanoi Industrial Fine Arts University in 2004. Thong’s Hope collection will be displayed at CTG’s new Calmette space from 11-15 December, and then will be moved and displayed at CTG’s original space (27i Tran Nhat Duat Street, District 1) from 16 December through 8 January 2016.
Opening Reception: Friday, 11 December 2015
Exhibition Dates: 11 December 2015 – 8 January 2016
Location: (from Dec 11th to Dec 15th): Craig Thomas Gallery - 165 Calmette Street, Nguyen Thai Binh Ward, District 1, Ho Chi Minh City
(from Dec 15th to Jan 8th): Craig Thomas Gallery - 27i, Tran Nhat Duat, Tan Dinh ward, District 1, Ho Chi Minh city.

Amazing Egg Shell Art of Vietnam
As a traditional fine art which goes back many years in Vietnam though no one knows for sure how many, Vietnamese lacquerware was handed down from generation to generation as a family secret until the first half of the 20th century when the renovation in the field led by excellent artists of Indochina Fine Arts school in Hanoi made the occupation popular not only in Vietnam but also all over the world.
Since then, the legend of Vietnamese lacquerware has really come true. Many generations of lacquer artists have gradually enhanced the quality of Vietnamese lacquerware in the last seventy years; discovering new materials to add to the palette of colored lacquers, the method of mixing various colors, the process of creating the lacquerware and particularly the technique of rubbing the lacquerware in water. Vietnamese lacquer art, however, is an extremely time - consuming and labor - intensive work; Vietnamese lacquerware is the hard work of many people: Lacquer artists, lacquer painters, and many workers who shed their sweat to the fullest spending over 100 days through 20 stages to create the Vietnamese lacquerware. As a result, every Vietnamese lacquerware bears the feelings of its creator: flexibility, complexity and variety. The lacquerware seems to carry something now appears now disappears passionately, ardently and magically. Many artists always say that the first time they really saw the lacquer, it was its blackness that impressed them. It is the black of the universe holding all things and having incredible depth to it.
