Xinh Xinh doesn't look like much - twelve small tables and cheap decor crammed into a Chinatown hole in the wall. It looks like exactly what it is - hands down the best Vietnamese restaurant in Boston. Now on the FOOD..The vietnamese fresh spring rolls is fresh but nothin special. A rice paper wrap is filled with rice noodles, veggies and boiled shrimp. It comes with a mediocre peanut sauce. The grilled chicken bun is AMAZING if you are looking for something cool, refreshing, light and a tad fishy (fish sauce is involved). A large bowl is filled with raw bean sprouts, shredded lettuce, and pickled carrots. A freshly boiled and strained serving of rice noodles is plopped on top, and last but not least, an INCREDIBLY grilled tender piece of chicken (thigh) is cooked to perfection so the edges are crispy and placed on top. On the side is a bowl of fish sauce based sauce for dipping. Personally, i LOVE this dish.
