Cơm Âm Phủ aka “Hell's Rice,” is a traditional dish from Hue, Vietnam, celebrated for its striking name and delicious simplicity. Far from its ominous label, which hints at its intriguing past, this dish embodies Hue’s rich culinary heritage, weaving together humble ingredients with a touch of sophistication.
It features rice with roasted pork, lemongrass-grilled pork, thin strips of pork quiche, and cucumbers, topped with mint leaves and ground shrimp, served with our special garlic fish sauce. Each component is thoughtfully combined, showcasing the artistry of Hue’s cuisine, shaped by its imperial history.
The name "Cơm Âm Phủ” carries a sense of mystery. Some believe it reflects the dish’s origins as a simple, hearty meal, standing in contrast to the elaborate feasts of Hue’s royal court. Whatever its roots, it’s a testament to resourcefulness and flavor, evolved over time into something special.
At Hue Oi in Fountain Valley, we honor this tradition, offering this special dish that highlights its bold tastes and cultural depth.
