- Cơm Gà Xối Mỡ Su Su is a Saigon street food restaurant that specializes in unique and amazing Vietnamese fried chicken. Read about it here: migrationology.com/2014/12/fri...
When I asked where to eat on my trip to Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, a few of you told me to check out a restaurant called Cơm Gà Xối Mỡ Su Su where the owner serves a unique and amazing style of Vietnamese grilled chicken. I actually stayed at a hotel, not too far away, so one day I decided to go check it out. I immediately recognized the restaurant by its orange chairs and by the metal shiny tables that everyone eats at, which are all lines up along the side of the wall.
The most amazing thing about Cơm Gà Xối Mỡ Su Su is the owner’s street food cooking inventions. When I arrived at the restaurant, he was busy making his famous sauce, which was being stirred in a flat pan by a paddle attachment to what looked like a commercial sized mixer. He was pretty excited to show me what he was cooking, and that he had invented the machine himself. But even how cool the mixing machine was, nothing could prepare me from the amazing waterfall fried chicken machine, that the owner also created himself for his restaurant. He cooked the chicken almost all the way, probably just baking it or something like that, and when someone makes an order, he puts a piece of chicken under the waterfall or deep frying oil, and let’s it sit in the hot oil rain for a few minutes on each side until it turns golden brown and crispy on the outside.
When you arrive to eat at Cơm Gà Xối Mỡ Su Su in Saigon, Vietnam, you basically have two choice of what to order - either a thigh or a breast of chicken. For my first plate of food, I chose to get the thigh, which came as a thigh and drumstick combination, paired with the restaurants signature orange fried rice, and the famous sauce. The chicken was crispy fried underneath the waterfall of hot oil, and it was crispy and delicious and hot. The sauce was a blend of garlic and onions, and lots of hoisin and soy sauce. The combination of the crunchy fried chicken with the sauce and the rice, was pretty wonderful. I liked it so much in fact, that I decided to order another piece of the fried chicken creation, and this time I ordered the white meat breast combination. It was actually better and bigger than the thigh I thought… so if I ever go back again, I’d probably go straight for the breast piece of chicken.
The food at Cơm Gà Xối Mỡ Su Su was pretty tasty, but even better than the food, was the unique and amazing waterfall raining deep frying machine that the owner invented and cooks his chicken with. The owner is extremely friendly, and he will definitely take care of you if you eat at his restaurant in Saigon.
Again, thank you all for recommending this restaurant to me, I thoroughly enjoyed it. Be sure to check out the full article here: migrationology.com/2014/12/fri...

He's not only a chef but he's also a genius!
MsLansones Yes, a genius and a scientist.
no doubt. fully respect
Maizat zat agree, normally ppl put the chicken on a big pan (with boiling oil inside the pan) and use a big spoon to pour the oil on the chicken. The oil will fall down to the pan and they just repeat the action. This is the 1st time ever I see someone make a whole machine to do that (even in Saigon, where this dish is really popular)
Yahlol😀
Marks Wiens He's gonna cure Ebola!!!!
The hospitality from the owner put a smile on my face. Vietnamese people are very pleasant and friendly you can tell from the the way the food tastes, just amazing. I find it oddly satisfying watching you eat, Mark. I guess I just enjoy seeing others enjoy themselves especially when it comes to eating lol! Great stuff as always :)
Billa Bum Thank you very much Billa. I was blown away by the kindness of people in Saigon, some really amazing people.
Hi Mark, I went looking for the stall earlier this morning. it has shifted to
1067 - 1069 Hoàng Sa, P. 11, Quận 3, TP. HCM
Quán ăn -Việt Nam
same boss. same chicken. same great taste. (when cooked by the boss)
That bite with rice, chicken, souce and chilli looked so good. Some water dripped out of my mouth
***** Thank you very much, haha.
Mark Wiens you are one of the best cooking host. with your delightful face . !
that waterfall fryer is genius!! he should patent that
Agreed 💯%. Unique frier. There's always an Asian who does it better.

Just went to this place on 11 june 2016, after watching this video. The price for the chicken thigh with the orange rice is 42,000 dong, slightly cheaper for wings. Its as good as Mark described it. There is no words to aptly describe the heavenly sauce. Fortunately for me those little plastic side stool is reinforced with metals to support my weight.
its not even 2 dollars man!
it's 1 dollar
Siong Tuing Wong people don't care about the dong say dollar or euro
Ive been watching your videos for a few months now mark and i am loving the different street food seens you introduce us to but above all your enthusiasm towards the food the methods of cooking and the people are what realy makes these videos so interesting to watch.keep up the good work.

TeddieSook Thank you
It's 12 am here and this is not a good time to watch mark weins.
I AM HUNGRY !
That chicken looks very good and i'm digging that frying method.
Kh4lidz Thanks for watching, midnight snack!
Mark Wiens It's 4:44am here, and this is DEFINENTLY not a good time 2 mark weinz HhHahahaAHA'!!!!1! MMMMMHMM *head tilts*
What I love most about watching Mark's videos is, months if not years can pass when I cannot catch up on his current shows But seeing him, his enthusiasm and one-one one organic method of relating to his audience makes me feel like I'm catching up with a friend I've known for decades and just got to see eachother again. That is simply spectacular. Thank You Mark, Bless you and your wonderful family and all that you do.
VERY unique place, the guys there seem to know their stuff!!!
Chicken really needs rice to taste unique I've found...
TheSpritz0 Thank you, yes I agree, love chicken paired with rice.

I read about this restaurant on your blog and couldn't wait for your youtube video about it. The video is great.
I wish I would hit the lottery and I'd just jump on a plane and go to all my favorite restaurants from your videos. Bangkok alone would take a very long time but it would be time well spent. Thanks for all your hard work.
I never get sick of watching your videos Mark, you make me hungry every time I watch you eat the food on offer.
you never fail to make me hungry at midnight.
Mark Wiens You facial expression after every bite is priceless! haha
Great video Mark, that guy that owns the restaurant were you ate was a genius. Using an old Hobart mixer and a attaching a gas line to it, so he could cook and the mixer stirs for him, cool. And that frying machine for the chicken, genius.
Wow that waterfall fried chicken is most amazing thing I have ever seen. I never seem anything like that, its awesome. :D
He must be an engineer.
shuggarush Haha, yes!
DR Dan same in Africa. When I came back from my visit to Ghana I stopped eating meat here. The beef in Africa taste sweet because all they feed it is watermelons. I am not a vegetarian but I still won’t eat meat here. My husband and I go every year to Ghana and I can’t wait to get some good chicken and beef lol.
@@ricca7111 confusing comment

Your vlogs are truly remarkable, definitely included essential info to all backpackers. My big question is how come you've only have 200k+ subscribers so far ? In any case, i believe that number will increase dramatically soon. Keep up with your great work✌🏻️ ! Btw, have you ever thought coming to Down Under ?
That sauce looks amazing...also this method of cooking is very unusual - never seen it before!
perfect start to my sunday ... I love this fryer. nice invention
Amogh Phadke Thank you Amogh
