Vietnamese Chicken Rice CPM Gà Quảng Ngãi: The flavor I’ve been searching for in Vietnam

When it comes to distinctive Vietnamese dishes that remind me of my travels to each city I have visited, Vietnamese chicken rice, or CPM Gà Quảng Ngãi as it’s called, is one of my favorite dishes. No matter which province I travel to in Vietnam, I always make a point to find a meal with this style of chicken rice. This time was no different when I had the chance to taste the original recipe from Quảng Ngãi city, the birthplace of this dish.

The special feature of Vietnamese chicken rice here lies in the rice, which is cooked with a rich chicken broth that gives it an inviting aroma. It’s different from the chicken rice I’ve had in Thailand or other Vietnamese cities. The rice is soft but not mushy, with a balanced flavor and a fragrant herbal scent typical of local style. The chicken served is tender boiled chicken in large fresh pieces, accompanied by a special dipping sauce that perfectly balances sour, sweet, salty, and spicy flavors. You can tell the cook put real care into it.

Exploring the Atmosphere and Local Lifestyle

During my visit to Quảng Ngãi, the overall atmosphere of the city remained calm and simple. It’s not as bustling as the larger southern cities or other parts of central Vietnam, but it has its own charm. Especially the local market where I took a stroll before the meal, I could clearly see the lifestyle of the people here, similar to what I experienced inLạng Sơn Provincewhere the market and local food are the heart of the city.

The market I visited had a warm atmosphere filled with the chatter of vendors and shoppers. Fresh vegetables, fruits, and seafood were neatly displayed, making me feel the true connection between food and the lifestyle of the locals before arriving at the chicken rice restaurant I intended to visit.

Traveling and Finding Quảng Ngãi Style Chicken Rice

Getting to the CPM Gà Quảng Ngãi chicken rice restaurant was easy. I chose to use local transportation, which was convenient and affordable. Traveling in Vietnam is something I really enjoy because it lets me see the real life of the locals, especially since I have experience traveling in other cities such asVinh Long Bus Stationwhich is a key connection point in the south.

Upon arriving at the restaurant, I made sure to observe the surroundings and chat with the very friendly owner. Then I saw the cook carefully preparing ingredients, which I believe is the heart of truly delicious food.

A Taste I Will Never Forget

When I tasted the first bite of CPM Gà Quảng Ngãi chicken rice, the fragrant rice combined with the tender chicken reminded me of the cook’s intention to convey a homestyle flavor with meticulous care in every step. The dipping sauce with its balanced flavor enhanced the dish perfectly. I must say this Vietnamese chicken rice is completely different from what I’ve had in big cities like Saigon or Hanoi.

If you love chicken rice like I do, don’t forget to stop by and try it here because it’s an unforgettable experience.
