Vietnamese com tam, or "broken rice," may be the most elegant example of culinary salvage in the world. At Thuan Kieu, the thing to get, inelegantly called "broken rice with seven kinds of foods," is a big platter heaped with broken rice -- jagged bits of jasmine rice, accidentally shattered during the harvest or during processing -- and a bit of everything in the restaurant that you could wish to taste: steamed balls of Vietnamese pat, bright-orange wedges of a sort of Vietnamese quiche flavored with ground pork, and charbroiled slices of beef or pork, slightly blackened at the edges, bubbling grease. The platter also includes some of the best bi in town, shreds of roast pigskin tossed with herbs, which flavors rice as nothing you've ever tasted. 123 E. Valley Blvd., San Gabriel; (626) 280-5660. Open Sun.Thurs. 9 a.m.9 p.m., Fri.Sat. 9 a.m.10 p.m. Lunch for two, food only, $8$14. No alcohol. Street parking. Cash only.
