Guys we're in Hanoi we're going out to eat some food and drink some coffee
come with us!
Today we're going to take you to three about favorite foody stops
in Hanoi the classics Pho, Banh My (Banh Mi) and Bun Cha
are eaten here by millions of people every day
One of our favorite Vietnamese dishes is Pho, or Pho. Now we find ourselves at Pho 10
highly recommended!
Located in the old quarter Pho 10 is extremely popular among
locals and tourists alike! Every day the place is absolutely packed full of
people wanting a bowl of their delicious organic Pho! Okay I'm so excited we just
received our bowls of Pho! Bek has version called...
Tai and I had Tai Nam! I think they should rename it Tai Yum!
because it's delicious! Now it comes with all these extra bits so you get some chilies
you get limes you get these little donuts here that are just so good!
I think they call them Oui (way)
now depending how adventurous you are I like to add chillies to mine they have
these amazing fresh-cut chilies! I added a bit of garlic but the trick to this
place is that they make their own little homemade chili sauce it's so yum!
it's very very potent so that much will absolutely blow your head off
that's exactly what I want today so let's blow my head off
so I have transformed my Pho into something that's very fiery and very
alive but I absolutely adore that if you don't want the spiciness then just dodge
the chilli all together and you've still got yourself an absolutely delicious
of clean crisp Pho! So to take your experience to a whole another level
get yourself a little plate of these dip
them into your Pho just like this and then munch on it!
just complete yummy ness it's really light on the inside really fluffy here
but on the outside you have this real crispness! It's unbelievable!
It just goes so well it!
It just soaks up with the juice without sort of going all soggy on you!
Yummy! Definitely check it out! It is our favourite!
favorite spot we've been here three or four times now absolutely delicious it
is a little bit more expensive than your standard street Pho! But it's still worth
coming here and paying the slight premium! Absolute quality!
Okay, we're at a place called Banh My P (Bahn My P) so let's do it!
So we've ordered a grilled chicken Banh My and I'm going to mung into that I love
how it comes in its own little little bag
that's like delicately packed! Let's see what' it's like
it's like a really really simple flavors going on there's some herbs really
really succulent grilled chicken there's some little spicy sauces going on in
there as well I love the simplicity of this thing we had a couple of people the
other night who who suggested that we come here and try out the Banh My.
Now I thought it was probably the beer talking however this is unbelievable for a
couple of dollars this is a little go to that you should find if you come to Hanoi!
Our final stop is one that's popular with tourists from all ends of the globe
A dish that is close to our hearts that was put onto the radar by Anthony
Bourdain a couple of years ago with Obama was Bun Cha!
And we found this place that they came to together back in 2014!
And they sat down and had a beer, a seafood roll and they had their Bun Cha dish!
this place now calls it the Obama combo and that's what we've got coming out
very shortly, believe it or not this place has five
stories so there's Bun Cha being eaten on on every single floor so it does look small
but it is deceiving. Sort of the middle of the morning about to have Bun Cha but yes...
we're about to knock down a beer as well it's kind of forced on us
because the Obama combo comes with a beer
bottoms up 10:30 in the morning
you get these seafood rolls to come with the Obama special and one of the things
is get these big chunks of corn in there you're lots of crab really big chunky
pieces of crab and then you get lots of vegetables scattered throughout it as
well it's quite a good little mixture on the inside but on the outside it's
really crunchy really really crisp and crunchy so it's a perfect large meaty spring roll
I love these I will come back just for these! The bun cha is good! But this is amazing
so with the Bun Cha! You get a big mound of herbs! And the key is to
load up or whatever you fancy. So some mint, coriander, there's even dill on here
there's even some lettuce too! Whatever it is that you prefer!
some of these unbelievable noodles fresh every day
mix that in! Then throw it in your mouth. Just throw it in!
it really works but it is not a soup. So you don't sit here and just drink and as
a soup use it is more of a dipping sauce with everything else. You eat all of the meat, noodles, the herbs.
it's a bit different are there other bowls that you might get in Vietnam
where you you munch in and eat everything
so good though! So good!
you can see here this is like a mini little pork hamburger
bigger cuts almost like pieces of bacon
have different types of pickled vegetables as well
and this sauce is just so sweet!
now I understand what Anthony Bourdain brought a Obama. This is something
that's so different it's not something that you would eat standard anywhere
else in the world Hanoi brings on the best Bun Cha!
