Best Gà Rôti in Chicago

Gà rôti — Vietnamese roasted chicken — is a dish that reflects the French colonial influence on Vietnamese cuisine. The chicken is marinated in a blend of fish sauce, garlic, honey or sugar, and five-spice powder, then roasted until the skin is golden, crispy, and caramelized. The result is a savory-sweet chicken with irresistibly crispy skin and juicy meat. Gà rôti is often served with steamed rice or bánh mì, along with pickled vegetables and fresh herbs. In Chicago, its a favorite takeout dish at Vietnamese restaurants and delis.
