- In this video, I traveled to the Mekong Delta and took a trip through the Cai Rang Floating Market and tried to make some rice hammock with some true masters.
The restaurant with the rice hammocks:

You floated right past my uncle's house. Haven't been back in 10 years. Brings back memories. Thanks.
thedarkemissary Oh wow, really?? That is so cool!
thedarkemissary that is so awesome! Hope someday you can make the trip back for a visit!
U r kidding me right?
InspireNewGeneration why can't he go back for a visit? Not like he is an illegal immigrant. What are they going to do, put him in jail for emigrating? I really don't know and am not trying to be wise, please educate me.
? that was not the direction Inspire was aiming for. He is surprised that it actually happened and not what you are saying.
Mike and banh mi lady, a platonic love story. Soon on theaters.
:)
Still a better love story than twilight
Still better then Twilight
And 2 years later...its still better than Twilight.
Legend says on quiet nights you can still hear his plaintive cries across the water.
My parents were born and raised in Vietnam for about 20 years, and moved to the Philippines, then to Washington, and then to Nevada where we still live now. They were very poor, and would tell me stories of life in Vietnam. Coming from your point of view and your perspective of the culture was refreshing since I can relate (I eat Vietnamese food though, and I speak the language) Vietnam is truly beautiful, and you’ve shown me everything from a non-native point of view. Thanks bruthah.
Seeing all the grandmothers smiling warms my heart.
You must be the first youtuber who actually use the right music for a video about Vietnam. Thank you for all the efforts!!!
that music is so good. gets you emotional, even if you're a complete foreigner
🤣
Can anyone please lead me in the right direction to the opening music.. 🙏
Might be my favorite video so far, fantastic! Beautiful country, beautiful people, delicious food!
Judah Sebastian - (Love your name). Yes. Hope something is underway to clean up the Mekong River though - the lifeblood of the region. Makes you wonder just how healthy the seafood actually is. Eighty percent of large fish faces extinction there. I guess pollution & overfishing affects it. Go now if you can. The population is growing.
Judah Sebastian love it their in 1970-1973 And yes the people are great only thing was some of them were shooting at us on the river then. Was there last summer and loved it.
Judah Sebastian i
Judah Sebastian thanks for complimenting my country
I love how you capture the bustle of life in this video. The people, their faces and the areas they live in. This particular one hit home because I went back to Vietnam a year ago and it was my first time in 27 years and I too went on a boat ride to these floating markets. I relished every moment of it. I was 2 when I left my home country. It was very emotional for me going back to a place I should've known about but clearly didn't.
I'm glad someone who is not native, like you, can truly enjoy what it means to visit a different country and get really into the roots of what makes it tick.
Thank you for this Mike, this is why I subscribed to you. Cheers friend.
Also, your boat captain kinda resembles my uncle and he loves to sing too. xP
"Sea monsters have nothing on Asians. We eat 'em all" Best line by Mike Chen ever 😂😂
tell that to the Japanese who died fighting Godzilla (yes, i know its only a movie)
if you can't beat em, EAT EM!
- Mike Chen probably
Concession S ml
Totally agree hahahaha
4 legs, only no to chair or desk. 2 legs, only no to mom and dad.
This is literally one of the most beautiful videos you have done, could you showcase more of these please. Thank you.
Tony Sky I agree!
I agree..Little bit of vlog mixed in with the food, feels better then consuming both separately on ur 2 channels, just imo though..
I agree as well! So much great images in this video. Absolutely makes me want to go there!
It is very good isn't it? Perfect in the morning
My stepmom is Vietnamese and she cuts pineapple that way. It's so pretty, I love it.
gorilla glue - The more I watch, the more I see pan-Asian culture as the most fascinating for food, crafting arts, traditional dance and painting. If we add pure Buddhism and hopefully, one day diligent land guardianship, you have the ingredients for utopia. Fingers crossed.
My mom do the same to😂
The intro music is my favorite. It is called Beo dat may troi, which in English literally means "drifting water hyacinth, floating clouds". The song is a traditional Vietnamese song played by the unique instrument of Vietnamese culture: 'dan bau'. I mean, I highly appreciate that he illustrated every aspect of Vietnamese culture interestingly and exactly in this video, namely: our music, cuisine, lifestyle and costume. Thank you very much Mike!
How do I find the original song? From the USA and don't hear that here lol I love traditional Vietnamese music
appreciate the music, but the origin of it would be pretty far away from the Mekong Delta. Maybe I'm just nitpicking
Besides, "QUAN HỌ BẮC NINH folk songs" were nscribed in 2009 on the Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity by UNESCO.
As an American born Vietnamese and only visited the motherland twice in my life, thank you for these videos so I can learn more about my family's country and its food. I hope to return in the future and try this!
🥰🥰🥰🥰
legend says that mike is still looking for the Bánh mì lady
I'm from future and yeah he still didn't found her
By far the coolest video of Vietnam I’ve seen on You Tube. The music and videography was amazing . Really shows the rich culture of the country.
That intro music is literally my jam 😍
tphmx search " Beo dat may troi " :3
Vinh Nguyễn I know that song, was singing with the instrumental XD
One of the most regonizesible folk songs in Vietnam
This was a really really beautiful video. From your interactions with the locals, to the stunning imagery of every day life in Vietnam, I was smiling the whole time. thank you for making this and thank you for being so humble and kind to everyone you interact with!
Mike this whole Vietnam series is so awesome, I thought this was the best series you have ever done, it's very obvious that you had a blast going there.
Wow, I was definitely blown away with this video. It was a relaxing experience, as well as a TV quality production right here. Great job Mike!
Fr so calm and feels good to see this
Great video! Everyone and everything is so colourful. I also love that everyone you see has a smile on their face. All the food looks so delish, I want to eat it all! I love the noodle hammocks. They are really little works of art. And, the lady making the crowns and the animals from the leaves is also amazing. Thank you so much for sharing all of that, and so much more with us. Hopefully, I will be able to experience it first hand, some day. Keep up the great work! Can't wait to see your next video!
People in Mekong Delta are the friendliest people in Vietnam.
Probably one of the best videos you’ve did. Great editing
Hope someone finds that auntie, may the quest someday be fulfilled!
I love that the people there aren't shy to smile for the camera, they seem so happy!
I am Vietnamese and thank you very much for making this video, i am so proud of my country!!
Me too
Just got home from a grueling workout. Fixed my late dinner, and checked notifications. Saw this, and thought; WINNING at life right now!
gordon ramsay said that pork noodle soup cooked by this toothless lady on vietnam boat market was the best dish hes ever eaten check out season 4 episode 21 masterchef for the episode
LINDA XU And we all know how picky Gordon can be. If I ever get there, I will look for this awesome lady.
Món ông đó ăn là bún riêu bà hai bán
LINDA XU YES I SAW THAT EXACT EPISODE!!!!
@kolkat c Why so negative? He must be doing something right if he has his own show and several restaurants.....
@kolkat c that guy has more than 15 stars and more respect from the industry than you will ever have big boy. You wont even have the balls to say that to his face lol
Vietnam is one of Mother Nature's jewels, and the people flow beautifully through their environment.
In true Mike Chen fashion, whenever I see a new vid I gotta say...”Umm, yes please!” 🙏🏼🙏🏼
That's also what I say whenever I see food
Strictly Dumpling umm holy crap you replied!!! Dude you’re so amazing! Keep up the amazing work 😭☺️☺️☺️
Mike, I absolutely love your Vietnam food series. They’re all amazing and really make me wanna visit Vietnam soon. I hope this isn’t the last one and there’s a few more Vietnam left coming.
Btw love the background music too.
By far, one of my favorite strictly dumpling episodes yet. Makes me want to go there. Great job Mikey.
That place looks very traditional. People are very hardworking☺
What a beautiful place. I knew people that got out after the war and told me how beautiful it is. My mouth is watering with that rice hammock.
Thank you so much for this video - I love that you captured the raw beauty of Vietnam that tourists fails to see and neglect . I was born and raised in Vietnam and after 13 years of growing up in America, I’ve sadly lost my roots with my native land. I’ve become so accustomed to the luxury of industrialized America that I failed to remember the natural beauty of Vietnam. Thank you so much for reminding me of the beautiful, hardworking country I was orginally raised in.
Nothing like seeing the homeland of Vietnam to truly understand how privileged we all are
Blah N Nothing condescending about the truth and comparison of the US and Vietnam. Regardless no matter how I phrase my comment so you won't get butt hurt, you can't change the fact that nearly everyone in America is privileged, give or take.
Nathan Nguyen very true; am Viet, and while the culture is beautiful, and all of the greens and herbs give me such joy... it’s horrible when you see a little boy without legs scooting around on a wooden board with wheels begging for money. The people either ignored him, or they whispered to their children that that’s what happens if you stray too far from your parents; that you’ll be captured and your legs will be chopped off, then be forced to beg for your life..
Beautiful... I'm so in love with their culture. I'm going to have to take umma here to visit.🥰
"Dô !" Real Western Vietnamese.
Thank you for such beautiful video of my home country.
Whenever I watch your videos abroad I just realize how much kinder and well natured people are of other cultures. Really wish I lived in another country sometimes.
Thank you for sharing. I LOVED this video. The music, the scenery, the people, the food, all so beautiful.
Jessica Colon yes, you'll be happier when you encountered those greeting smiles @ 16:50 .Then you know you're in Vietnam..
This video put a smile on my face! Will be heading to the motherland at the end of the year. So excited to be eating all this yummy foods and more :)
I have to say this since iam early. Your videos are extremely relaxing to watch and it is great to see someone do something which they are truly passionate about. I hope i can travel and eat delicious food like you do one day.A fan from india.
Thank you, heading to india soon :-)
I absolutely agree, this video inspires me to do even more traveling. I want to visit Vietnam now as well. And India is also on my list.
I love the editing of this video. Thank you for putting in the traditional Vietnamese music, it make me miss Vietnam very much.
That is some high-key Vietnamese musci you've put into that video
never heard Vietnamese music before this, but it's so beautiful and relaxing wow
That's music from north of Vietnam, we have many kinds of music depend on region: North, South, Central and Highland music
Love the way you love food. And your humor too. Makes it really fun to watch your videos. Thanks!
Oh my god, Mike, I love you so much. You are literally the greatest. This video was AMAZING- I teared up when you were showing us the river on the way to the rice hammock restaurant. And when you called the noodle soup lady "Auntie" was so endearing :)
This trip to Vietnam has been my absolute favorite of yours to watch, and I've watched almost every trip you've taken. Every time I watch one of your videos my day automatically gets better. Your content is so incredible. Thank you so so much for all that you do
Love the scenery, love the Vietnamese traditional music at the beginning, i think you really love this country
Definitely one of my favorite video ❤️ Watching it by midnight in Canada, missing my country so much 😢 Thank u for making such a great video about Vietnam ❤️
This video was so beautiful, from the people, river, boats, culture, activities and scenery. This experience makes life worthwhile. Thank you for showing us all this.
I don't eat meat but absolutely love all your videos! But this one is by far, one of my favourites. Love the serene boat ride. The aerial views... The beautiful capture of the beautiful people. The food is like a bonus and the spice of your vid. Super awesome!
Mas W YOU DON'T EAT MEAT!?!?!
Vegans are definitely welcome to the Mekong delta. Fish, shrimp, and all types of seafood are very common in the area. Vegan foods can be commonly found in numerous restaurants. You’ll love our vegan foods because they are even tastier than meat dishes.
If you go stay in a monastery they make some amazing vegetarian food. They do incredible things with tofu. Vietnam has lots of good vegetarian food (I tend not to eat meat travelling to avoid getting sick as unless you know a local it’s hard to know where/what to eat).
I’m a Vietnamese , I love the bird make by leafs the coco you’re holding that so long I didn’t see people make anymore , this my childhood. Thanks so much for great video and enjoy guys..
Bazinga! T-shirt, Sheldon Cooper fan here :D
This video is beautiful! The colors, the food, everything! ❤️
Love the intro music, it was so relaxing to see and its so beautiful. The food looks so good.
Jackie B intro music is a song named " Beo dat may troi "
Vinh Nguyễn Very similar to Chinese music! ☺
yeah but it play by vietnamese 's music instrument with has only 1 string
huy tran All those notes and sounds from just one string? What's the instrument called?
BJ19 ws it is called đàn bầu
I got a little choked up at 6:53 - a little glimpse into the life of a cute little family that I’ll never meet, but I love them just from that little glimpse. 💗💗
This has got to be one of your best videos
Everything about this video makes me miss home more. The music, captures of the locals, the food,… Amazing video❤
Beautiful country with beautiful people
being vietnamese i just love watching your vietnamese series, it connects me back to my roots and i love how youre sharing it with everyone in the world to broden peoples knowledge i just love it so much!
amazing. you made me want to schedule another stop on my way home. Beautiful. The woven rice - I assume it's cooked rice ground at the top of the tube and fed thru a toothed tip at the bottom? Perfect video. Thanks for your hard work and your teams outstanding editing.
I totally agree. I have never seen that woven rice before. Looks amazing.
People in Southeast Asia are so humble. Even though, they’re struggling to make ends meat, they still manage to keep a smile on their face.
Your videos make us viewers feel like they are right there with you experiencing the beautiful scenery! Makes me miss my home country very much (in a good way haha). Hope we all will get to experience Vietnam like you did one day. Your channel was actually what inspired me to start my own YT channel, hoping that I can spread a little piece of Vietnamese culture in the U.S. Thanks for all your hard work!❤️
Mike, this is the prettiest video you have done. I love seeing the local people, and the beautiful landscapes. It really ties into the food you are eating. Well done. More of these please.
Everything looks so delicious
These people are so focused on making a living but at the same time they seem so happy. This is one of my favorite videos you've done. I'd LOVE to see more like this one. Gorgeous! I hope to visit Busan South Korea next year. My niece is there. I know it will spoil me. I will want to visit many more Asian countries. I subscribed to yoh fairly recently so I am still watching all your videos. They make me so hungry! I have to admit, I have a HUGE platonic crush on you!!
This is by far the most beautifullest video ever ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
The video is so good....getting to travel to Vietnam while at the comfort of your home during quarantine....thank you so much Mike! Love you and take care!
I like how you chose the opening music!
Their smiles are so heartwarming
i like to taste but i can't eat a lot..i want to travel but i hate long travel..have anxiety disorder ..so i cannot go far place..good for you you travel and eat ...more power
You and Sonny are two of the best food reviewers in this whole freaking world!!!!! I look upon you every day. Thank you for featuring my country.
Bahn Mi Lady where you at though?? 😂😂😂
_Legends say Mike is still looking for the bahn mi lady to this day_
Love, love, love your Vietnam videos. Thank you for an awesome job!! 👍🏼❤️
ahhhh you are making me homesick 😂😂😂😂 great video Mike!
All of the locals were so nice and friendly. A really nice area to visit.
The music makes me wanna cry tho. Thank you for another wonderful vid!
This may be my favorite video on the channel. Such a beautiful country.
Watching your video made me feel miss Vietnam😢😢
When you were like “that’s it” I was like Nooo! There should be more!
I’m glad you shot more footage 😊
Amazing video! Love your content!!
I just had breakfast and now I’m hungry again!
haha I have that same feeling ;)
Gotta go to Vietnam. What beautiful transformation. Everything yall ate in this video was fabulous!
But how did you get the noodle lady back her bowl?!
She will come back to find him
These people now each others so dont worry :)) when he went out the lady will take it back
They know each other- it’s a community who often live on the river.
I love the use of the folk music! Really brings me back!!
So cool!! God bless the Vietnamese, love from Canada
Thanks
I agree with everybody here! It is the best video Ive seen this far! Thank you so much! I really enjoy this! Will show this to my Mom soon!🤗
Am i the only one that didn't know Mike has a tv show on Amazon Prime called Simply Dumpling???
I knew I saw simply dumpling somewhere! I looked at the name on this page and felt so confused
Good to know!
Yes...
Yah definitely only one 😂
Nearly moved to tears from the Beauty!!!!! Thanks Mike!!!!!!
Here before this showed up on my subscriptions page!
edit: Damn Mikey, looking buff
im glad you picked actual traditional vietnamese music in your intro and not just stereotypical "asian" or "oriental" sounding music. you keeping it real g out there mikey
Love this video whoever in the team was involved in producing this you did an amazing job...
Ps my daughter started singing sponge bob square pants "lives in a pineapple under the Sea" and now wants to know is that where you live mikey? Lol
Great video. Beautiful scenery, people, food, experiences... But I want nothing more than that toy chicken. It was so adorable!!
I love your hot pot ones the best the meat boiling in soup is so cool
Thank you for including local music in the video. Although the song at the beginning is a northern folk song, it is till very nostalgic
Sparkled Beauty
Whats the title to the song please.
A memory of my childhood
I love when he said “not giving up to find Banh Mi lady” with pineapple in his hand...🤓😝😱
This is one of the best production video in this channel so far
I have a feeling there's some surge in Mike's fanbase coming to the Mekong Delta looking for the Banh Mi Lady and she's completely confused why she's suddenly in high demand
I love hearing rooster, reminds me of back home when we visit our grandparents.
mike greetings from Australia(Adelaide),keep up the gooood work bro.
I watched this your clip long ago, but now I'm still watching this because I'm missing my homeland so much(from US)... Wish I can come back soon to travel and eat a lot of Vietnamese foods! Thank you.
Btw, music of background is so beautiful bro!
Find somebody that longs for you like Mike longs for his lost Bahn Mi lady.
The production value in this video is probably the best I’ve seen on your channel so far, great camera work and all. You deserve more than one million subscribers already, haven’t a clue why it takes so long. Awesome video as always.
Love this!
The intro music brings many memories. Idk if it’s true because I am French born but when I heard this song wanting to understand the lyrics, it described how missing a lover felt like being a moss fern just floating over water. If I’m not wrong.
Even though you don't understand the lyric, but your feelings is right. The music make me very emotional too. Miss Vietnam so much
