      Oh oh Mark! Don't forget to try the Ban Mi sandwich, or is that to generic and uninteresting. And also don't forget to try soup with rice noodles too.. I think they call it Kuay Jub Yuan in Thailand, we have this here as well.

    Mark, You are really a true inspiration, because of your open- mind and acceptance of others, it is really encouraging and hopeful. I love your videos, the food, the travels and just... the entire experience. Thanks for allowing us into your travels, I am appreciative of your thoughtfulness and kindness in doing so, blessings to you and yours!

    Not sure if anyone has already told you, but when eating the rice dish with pork and fried egg, its customary to add the fish sauce with chili on top of the rice. makes it so much better!!!

    I noticed that your partner was in the video abit more. She is very beautiful.
    Vietnamese rolls are my forever favourite rolls 😉
    It's amazing what some of these motor cyclist carry on the the back of their bikes!
    Really appreciate the videos you do. I can imagine it being hard talking and focusing where you're walking, especially in a busy environment. Talk about multi tasking. There's a saying that men can't multi task! Sure proved that wrong 😉 keep up the good work Mark!! ✌️

      Hi Jem Smedley, thank you very much, and glad that you get Vietnamese sandwiches too. Haha, I'm not so sure I'm very good at multitasking though, I was definitely walking and sometimes had no idea what I was talking about, but I did some editing of the things that didn't make sense!

    Just looked up the exchange rate. 22,471 Dong for 1 USD. Wow. Their inflation a few years back really killed them. Having been there on and off since 1993, I remember the exchange rate going to as low as 8,000 and it was at 11,000 for many years. The Banh Mi Thit (hamburger sandwich) is .76 cents !! Wow.

      ab202012 I actually find his enthusiasm quite endearing. I don't know him personally but from following him on TH-cam and Instagram he seems like a very positive and passionate foodie and a good person in general. "Stiff competition"? I hope you're not referring to yourself because that would be amusing. Perhaps the reason why he's married to such a lovely woman is because he's such a kind and friendly human being, as opposed to being an obnoxious jerk like you. Honestly, if you don't have anything positive to say then I propose you keep it to yourself. Sheesh.

    • @BillBui_
      @BillBui_ 9 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      ab202012 I was merely defending Mark then you go out on a tangent and started erratically ranting and insulting me in the process. Obviously your attempt at "sarcasm" was lost over the internet. Responding in such a malicious way just shows what a hateful person you are. And you say that I'm the one "polluting" this site with my "aggression" and "wickedness". Talk about hypocrisy.

    Great video as usual! Pho is amazing, one of my favourite foods - I usually dip the beef in a mixture of hoisin sauce and siracha sauce and then eat it together with the noodles and then chase it with a scoop of delicious broth. And that broken rice pork chop dish looks amazing! Can't wait for more of your vids!

I wonder if it's still there. They were also playing Jamaican songs of all types of music, which I thought was pretty rad- this was in 96.' Oh, and go-cart racing!

    Hey Mark! Great video again! I had to chuckle a little when I seen you eat the pork chop as I saw you using that same flimsy spoon and fork as we have in Thailand. What made me chuckle was seeing the bent points on the fork pointing all different ways! The traffic in Saigon looks similar to Thailand but from what I see, the traffic looks like it flows better and not erratic like in Thailand. I think so long you flow with the traffic flow in Saigon, it will make it safer than going through Thailand traffic. Much mahalos again for the great informational videos!

    • @MarkWiens
      @MarkWiens  10 ปีที่แล้ว

    Since we have a huge Vietnamese population here in New Orleans, and we are the home of poboys, we have a BUNCH of Banh Mi sandwiches here. The bread is like French Bread but fluffier. The grilled pork is my favorite. My wife, who does not like liver, still loves them even though they have the liver pate on them.

    • @professorm4171

    Hey Ying & Mark,
    I love Vietnamese pork rolls with Chilli and soy sauce. There are many of these shops here in Sydney; but you can tell if they are any good by the length of the queue outside.....some continue out of the shop and half way up the street! They cost about $4.50 here. The breadroll is crucial to the enjoyment. .....too crispy and it can cut the corner of your mouth and leave you with a pile of crumbs in your lap.
    Love your work guys.
    Jim.

    • @MarkWiens
