must try foods in Vietnam alright so
we're back this is part of our Vietnam
series I hope you guys liked the
previous episode if you haven't seen it
then definitely the links are always in
the description we're continuing on with
our street food portion of this series
there's just so much street food to try
and Vietnam and I just wanted to look
kind of show you guys some of my
favorite street food to try oh and
before I forget if you guys want to see
what I'm doing on the daily check out my
Instagram account I post stories every
day that all said let's get our food on
number six fun noodles first probably
one of the most well-known Vietnamese
noodle dishes worldwide but it's
uniquely in its own here in Vietnam plus
sometimes pronounced pho is a noodle
soup consisting of broth rice noodles
and local toppings it's a popular street
food in Vietnam and is usually served in
these types of shops the bowl usually
comes with a side plate of vegetables
herbs lime and chilies accompanied with
various sauces to further customize your
bowl I went to full 75 a popular photo
shop in Danang lady starts to cook right
after you place an order watch how fast
she prepares the bowl it's impressive to
witness how quickly the slices of steak
and rare meat get cooked in the spoon
[Music]
how it just smells it's so good like
just breaking up all the men you can
smell how fresh the leaves are clean on
spilitt if I hold it with one hand
there's so much flavor in this it's a
little bit savory you can like
definitely taste on mommy
the chicken is like coming off of it
really good goes well with a fresh
vegetables other fresh leaves let me
just grab some spice get a big helping
of that throw that in there this is
supposed to be some sweet sauce look at
the color how it's just changed and it's
become almost like ramen like yeah that
is the bomb wow that has completely
changed the flavor of the soup I would
say for the better to now has like a
spicy kick to it I had that a little bit
like more sweetness now we're cooking
with fire you know I'm saying it might
go got to be a brisket and I'm trying
this now you can also put the sauce
directly onto the meat so do we have
some a little bit of the chili as well
as a sweet for Vietnamese sauce it's
almost like a Chinese sweet seafood
sauce let's just have a bite of this but
as you get all these vegetables you can
just keep on adding to the soup I just
made it super spicy but I love it
and my cousin where they're going to
towns you keep them adding this
sweetness to it I think it's like it's
actually a perfect meal on hot days
because it's still refreshing light so
you don't like feel too happy because of
all the vegetables and soon the rice
noodles are quite bite as well number 5
called Combe means rice and God means
chicken in Vietnamese so it translates
to chicken rice the style differs
depending on where you go but at this
popular conga shop called the high you
can enjoy a crispy fried chicken thigh
with rice or shredded style since
they're roasted
and for some reason the visa really like
there's like colored rice are they
turmeric rice again came what's up soup
I come to their standard chili sauce
let's just try this
roasted chicken man
Oh lovely
imagine crunchy the meat is tender in
the middle let me see the tenderness
right there and probably get like
another two or three of these of it does
that meat not a lot of meat on the bones
the taste is there
the taste is like on point some good
chicken build a larger-than-life - I'd
apparently very very simple meal you can
always add some sauce to it like this I
got another one and it's so hot when he
comes on the menu it says roasted
chicken but looking closer at how
they're cooking I think it's actually
fried well I know it's fried because it
looks like I can watch it get fried this
fried chicken but it's damn good fried
chicken even whatever country I go to
you know I'm gonna have the fried
chicken right I've done the day like the
price is just unbeatable for two dollars
and fifty cents and I won't let a rice
some chicken like perfect for the day
you're really up for making me spend
five bucks I get to these number for
mummy
simply put as a Vietnamese sandwich and
you can find the bun me sands everywhere
throughout the city the style differs
from shop to stand but they all humbly
use a baguette to sandwich the
ingredients but Wow is it delicious
check it just got some fun me I don't
know if I'm pronouncing I'm not
pronouncing any of this stuff right
being I was talking that taxi cab driver
and he said fun that two different kinds
so what I got it has a spicy and sweet
meat inside just open this up
get all that goodness in there and I've
actually added fried angin to get melted
cheese in it this crazy how they haven't
already like prepared in the trays like
an American Subway sandwich shop but
like a lot more fresh my god Ellie I've
asked them to put some cilantro in there
as well they've also put some like
cucumbers in here onions
they've toasted the bread wow this this
piece of egg is just really really thick
let's take a bite of this that puts a
smile on to my face I love the
crunchiness of the bread and holds
everything together and then when you
bite into a do first taste of meat
juices meaning it's like just really
like nice and fresh do you have like the
crunchiness of the cucumber and then the
melted cheese and egg just give it like
that gooey loveliness that you want in a
sandwich of this I wanted a sandwich if
I here have some like chili sauce that
you can add to it and I'm always like a
big chili fan so I'm just gonna have
that as well
symmetric Chile
oh so this is the bacon ham and egg upon
me but you can see that white strips
that's the mayonnaise they have some
chili this is like a healthy portion of
chili and even had some like pepperoni
looking ham in there it has some
tomatoes that has lettuce cucumbers a
lot of mayonnaise and hot chili sauce
they have some onions in here Jesus and
it's all wrapped in a nice crispy bun
that mayonnaise is a game-changer the
human really did the main and the best
flavor is just popping explode it's like
buttery unhealthy explosion in your
mouth what a wonderful combination these
honey sandwiches are number three
seafood it's a seafood spot right by the
beach and looking right behind me they
have like buckets and buckets of fresh
seafood still alive and you get to pick
which ones you want for yourself so I'm
gonna go and choose some seafood and
we're gonna try it out tonight so
Vietnam is also known for seafood you'll
find many seafood specialty restaurants
like this especially in the beach cities
is like Danang and not chang these
restaurants you can select a seafood
from tanks or buckets and then you
choose how you want to prepare such as
steamed deep-fried pan-fried or even
barbecue style
[Music]
Wow look at that
when the sauce itself is actually pretty
good
it affected some soy sauce fish sauce
and has some chilies in there but it
really like brings out the flavor of the
fish when I chose to fry it this time
around but you learn as he chooses to
grill it the steam it having some
several different options
what an experience it is and the fish is
so nice it's nice and tender
it hasn't been sauced like basically
they'd like Friday and this is they
haven't like actually like marinating
like any sauce it's just fresh basically
this is your sauce itself then just like
to balance things out they also have
this morning glory which I recommend you
can see that I just laid in with garlic
or just awesome cuz I love garlic I
really really enjoy it
God smells is so good can someone get
this excited about vegetables I don't
know
what I'd like it has a really like nice
crunchy texture I think it's from the
stems itself I guess is taller my vegan
fans this is actually worth trying the
ordering system varies from shop to shop
which is worth noting especially at this
restaurant with noters so this could
quite possibly be the most stressful
restaurant I've ever been through in my
life I'm not gonna complain I've wanted
to like explain this experience you guys
it's intense and it's a it's I don't
know if it's callous or I don't know if
it's organized chaos or if it's just
chaos when I went to get in line to pick
the finisher to make the seafood there
was no line people were just coming
everywhere and they weren't like asking
me so I thought that was that gonna be
an orderly line then there was just so
many people I really don't know if that
food is gonna find us I got a beer and
unfortunately it's warm so I asked for
ice to put it inside of my glass and you
get me eyes but the ice is just like
sitting in that bucket right there quite
intense bottom hopefully the food is
dirty like cheers to that
Oh at this restaurant we were one kilo
of clams steamed and flavored with mints
fresh squeezed lime and lots of garlic
as well as a kilo of shrimp prepared in
a butter garlic sauce you can see how
the butter and the juices I've already
soaked into the shrimp itself
this is not good for my cholesterol
probably anyway oh I didn't want to lick
my fingers it's completely worth it you
just gotta like bear through the
discomfort sometimes I'm not
understanding then you get delicious
pieces of shrimp like this so you gotta
like completely soaked and the juices
you can take some of the rice so soak
that in the juices like that make a
little kind of like onigiri with it
let's take it all in number two way
Kazim way dishes used to be served to
emperors and royal families back in the
day but now anyone can throw down on
some Hawaii cuisine as it's available in
many restaurants many way dishes are
small and visually amusing like this
little rice cupcake called banh bao
it's topped with shrimp flakes pour
crackers shallots and herbs served with
a fish base sauce called Northman damn
probably butchering that name too we got
a good one for y'all today
the Fond Bo this is like a rice pudding
and then I think we have like a dipping
sauce stick out that's a fish sauce it
has some green chilies in there from
some red chilies typically what you're
supposed to do is you're supposed to
take some fish sauce and pour it in here
like that then you scoop it out like
that
[Music]
and then you enjoy the fish sauce gives
it all of its flavors and the rice
pudding just kind of like holds the
thing together and then it has like a
nice crunchiness and it looks like a lot
of food but it's not really that much
it's like one bite and you can have like
50 of these cuz they're so light and
this is my favorite even though I
probably can't pronounce it bun rum it
it's a rice cake stuffed with shrimp on
top of a crispy rice cracker so this is
the one this is actually the sauce for
the bun ramen and I think it's like a
little spicier because there you see
more chilies P being like the guy that I
am look at all that extra chili oh boy
we looks like a corn flake on steroids
with some mochi on top that's nice if it
nummies were like watching the Super
Bowl and then either like some chips and
some snacks there we just like take this
dip it in and just like have it as an
appetizer while they're drinking their
Budweiser these clear skin dumplings are
known as fun but lock which is a tapioca
based dough stuffed with shrimp and pork
it's actually quite sticky it's almost
like a gelatin itself I don't know if
you can see through that it's like it's
almost translucent and it has a shrimp
in there I'm gonna dip that into some
sauce now this one is everything good
it's like really slake textures then you
have the shrimp inside in the shrimp
itself the skin is still on there so you
have like another resistance of like
texture it's not just like the shrimp
whether you have like the shrimp shell
as well that you're dealing with and you
eat it yes if somebody Nam not to be
confused with Van Damme
my other favorite martial arts character
it has the same kind of texture as a
ponlop it looks like it has some like
ground pork and it has maybe some like
herbs in here
same as the the bomb lock like kind of
like a gummy bear but even like it seems
like it's even like slimy err and a
little bit malleable oh wow that's like
a completely different experience the
skin itself you've never had it gives
the skin that's been boiled in water if
you took maybe four of those layers and
you pile them on top of each other feels
like that cuz it's so thick in itself
you get like this mushy gooey sensation
inside of your like mouth quite nice
it's like like all of this is pretty
cool because I've never had it before
look that although it has some flavor
the the fish sauce gives it that like
nights of savory quality and it like
brings it all together think I need to
exercise now and number one bun Co so
the next spot we're going to is in this
alley you can see that it just gets
narrower and narrow as we go I'm quite
excited to try some boom bow guru we're
not really getting boom bow Hui I'm just
messing around
instead we're throwing down on some
bungee oh so in this alley and there's
actually three restaurants just in this
corner right here that one two and then
one at the end
so all these three stores are famous for
the Vietnamese omelet so you can go to
either three is gonna yield very similar
but they all should be pretty good
this is literally a hole in the wall so
bun Co is often explained as a
Vietnamese omelet I initially thought it
was made with egg but in fact it's
actually made with a rice powder coconut
milk and colored with turmeric which
gives it that yellow color and making it
more like a pancake they cook it on the
large iron pan over an open flame to
almost a deep fry style it's cooked in a
thin layer to make it extra crispy so
you get that crunchy texture with every
bite when you sit down you are first
served a plate of vegetables and other
toppings and the bond sale and meat
skewers follow afterwards and in the
neck they wrap everything in a dry
crispy rice paper and dip it in a thick
sesame sauce
it is not lovely mess
first thing you taste is a soccer salt
it's kind of like a peanut sauce but
it's a little bit spicy as well at the
same time and then you fight into it and
you get it like a nice crunch from
pickles the lettuce and also from the
enemy's pancake and if you're feeling a
little more more risky and actually some
chili sauce throw that on like that as
well
and combine that with some more the
peanut sauce that loveliness
and I just love the scrunch so you think
you're just gonna happen of to help you
a vegetable dish but like this is so
much munch and I think the shrimp even
adds to their like the crunch that you
get because it still has a shell in it
and if you want to add more flavor to
this pack the flavor of joy they have
some chili peppers and some garlic just
like sitting on the side in fact it was
so good I returned a few days later to
one of the other bond Co shops in the
alley to have another helping and it
didn't disappoint
