I went to Hanoi last year in May 2023 and too courage and excitement to explore the local traditional market. It was a great decision. I tried some delicious local food! I hope I can go back to Hanoi.
Can’t wait to go to Hanoi in May will be travelling in Vietnam for 2 1/2 weeks then on to Bali, from Ireland. Thanks Mike and Ashley for all of your videos on Vietnam I have learned so much already about the food and culture, makes me excited to experience it myself!!
That’s awesome! You will have a lovely time! We also have some videos from Bali out as well you may be interested in. If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to reach out!
@@mikeandashley I thought you were going to hurl there for a second. LOL! Next time, remove the intestine casing as it can be thick and chewy. Again, it's best in chao/congee, so do give it another try and see if you like it better that way.
Yes! The dill really makes it. We tried it the first time randomly walking around Hanoi in our first video we filmed there. It's like a fritata, with a nice crisp to it. 👌
I myself love your videos and your experiences in Vietnam, especially in my city, Hanoi. Thank you for bringing Vietnam to viewers from all over the world and for my chance of practising English.
Very cool aspect of your channel to explore experiences each on your side !! Love it. Mike, you really are good to describe tastes !! I was litterally drooling when you reviewed egg-coffee.
Wow! I never thought of it this way. Maybe Ashley should go out on a solo adventure! Could be fun. 🤗 I’m happy I could describe the food so you felt like you were along for the ride with me. ☺️🫶
As "unusual" food eaters ourselves, we salute you for stepping outside of your comfort zone and trying all of these new things! I've seen that sandworm pancake on other videos, but never came across it in person. We will have to try! Hahaha. Your egg reaction. We had balut when we were in Cambodia. We didn't mind it at all. As you said, the "broth" in the egg tasted like chicken soup, and the rest like egg. That bun cha place was the first bun cha we ever had! It's good, but we had a street side spot that we preferred. Man, I miss Vietnamese food!
Thanks! I appreciate your props. Lol. Yea, our favorite bun cha place was also street side. We go there in an upcoming video. I too miss Vietnamese food. So much lol.
My house is right in Hanoi's Old Quarter. If I were good at English, I would take you two out and eat all the dishes in Hanoi. The delicious dishes in your videos are just a small part of Hanoi cuisine. Wish you have beautiful memories in Vietnam. Sorry I'm using google translate.
No worries! We would have to use Google translate as well! 😅 We have a translator that’s pretty decent, maybe next time we are in Vietnam, we can go for a food adventure with you! You can message us on Instagram, @mikeandashleytravel, and perhaps we can coordinate it next time! ☺️🫶🥰
40:28 an easy way to pronounce this word is to think of the saying, “hang on” and just take off the ha in the beginning. We have that sound in English, it’s just not found at the beginning of words like in Vietnamese
Bun Cha is one of my favorite as well. As for the cake w/ sandworms, that s a little too adventurous for me. Btw, you nailed it with the word "ngon" pronunciation. When all fails , just say "Gone" (that it's so "ngon" that it's all gone).😊
Bun cha is so good! And honestly, so is cha ruoi. That was my second time having it and it didn’t bother me! I’m glad at least someone things I did it well, and that’s a good way to remember it too!
I think the cha ruoi (sandworms) is more a mental block than anything else. From what I can see, it looks like an herby omelets, which most people can do.
Well done on the solo vlog Mike 😄 Can imagine it feeling strange without Ashley, hope she was feeling better soon after this! And well done on all the adventurous food you tried... you did better than I would haha
Thanks! It's definitely a different filming experience. Thankfully I had someone else at least to riff off of lol. She is totally better now, no worries. And tbh, I did better than I thought I would too lol. Thanks for watching! 🙏
17:10 I did hope you had liked the blood sausage. Vietnamese chiefs know how to clean and cook pig's intestine, especially in Hanoi. But indeed, pig's intestine can be dangerous to eat without proper cleaning with salt clean water and proper boiling.
It did seem quite clean. I didn’t get sick, so that’s good! But it was a strange texture. 😅 If I had some fish sauce, it would have been no problems. 👌
Tip for crossing street in Vietnam: Many tourist foreigners scared of traffic in VN . Don’t worry about it! The rule to win this fear is keep routin slowly walking when you across the streams of motobike! -motobykers knows how to avoid you themself in chaos-order! remmember do not run and stop suddently , accident immidiatly ! Don’t be affraid off and do it if you want to be safety in the crazy- rule traffic in Vietnam.
BTW, regarding the ng sound. Think of the word fillet mignon...it's similar to the gn in mignon. Or think of words that end in ing like sing, king, ring, etc.
Vietnam could be more enjoyable if the people stopped throwing garbage everywhere and sold food with hygiene and safety in mind. Đây là một nền văn hóa ăn uống bẩn thỉu dơ dáy, vứt rác bừa bãi, sinh sống thiếu trật tự, lộn xộn ồn ào, thô lỗ, tham lam gian lận, trộm cắp.
@@nocancelcultureaccepted9316 Still repetitive and boring, troll. I guess 3 years of saying the same stuff over and over from one Viet video after another doesn't challenge your gray matter. Your synapses are atrophying as you type.
Ok! Sign language has always been something we’ve intended to learn. We know a few signs, but could definitely learn more. I imagine it’s different in Vietnam than ASL though.
Yea, I wasn’t trying to do it, but I can’t turn down an opportunity. She didn’t… we actually had no idea that we were going on the adventurous version. 😅
Bạn đừng nghe cô hướng dẫn viên du lịch là: bỏ rau thơm vào nước chấm khi ăn "bánh cuốn". Bởi khi bạn lấy chúng lên ăn sẽ làm nước mắm văng và rơi vãi. Bạn chỉ chấm bánh cuốn và ăn. Khi nào muốn ăn rau thơm thì bạn hãy ăn nó trước tiếp.😂😂😂😂
Good to know! We typically just do things our own way, but on some older videos, we were told to take a food tour to understand how food is eaten, so we did! I did think it made a good tasting fish sauce!
Chả quế is always grilled that make its color different from normal fried chả. It has 2 layers, the first is pork( without fat) and cinnamon, the second is pork( with fat but not cinnamon) that is why you find chả quế is less fatty than normal chả
Oh no way! I wanted to, but felt that I couldn’t be rude and should at least try everything, at least once. It wasn’t nearly as bad as I thought it would be. But the thought of it sure isn’t pleasant. 😅
She seems like a nice girl, but I wish she'd have pivoted when she found out you already had banh cuon there (and also the sandworms and the ban ran...saving grace is if it's actually better than what you tried last time). Either go to another banh cuon place or some other food instead...and she should have given more chili when you asked for it. But I did like how she demo'ed how to eat it properly. That blood sausage is sketchy as heck since it's right there next to the raw meat. I don't eat the blood cakes and such, but I LOVE the blood sausage. I wouldn't necessarily eat it like that, but in chao (congee), it's also often served with bun dau mam tom (which you should try...but maybe stick with nuoc mam instead of the fermented shrimp paste initially). I'd rather the tour guides introduce the quail eggs in tamarind sauce first, then go hardcore on the duck egg. The bun cha place was weird...it's build almost Japanese style, but very inconvenient because they'd have to step up to deliver the food to the customers? It also seems lacking in meat compared to other places...and it was missing the crab filled egg rolls. I did like the banh mi because it sounded different and unique and the dessert looks great (not adventurous, though).

Yea, I do agree to an extent. While I was happy that I got to true banh cuon with egg, I wish we’d been able to go to another location. I believe filming around Tet made that a challenge though, so I’m happy they could accept us at all! The sausage in congee would have definitely helped… I mean, any sauce would have helped haha. The egg was fine, I’m glad I got to try it. Though quail eggs would have maybe been easier! The bun cha was very tasty, but not quite as stacked as others we’ve had now. In one of our next videos, we go to our favorite bun cha place! The ice cream was perfect… though, I think only the three items were supposed to be adventurous, not all of them! ☺️
@@mikeandashleyAh, okay. That makes sense as a lot of places close down during Tet so she may be limited by that alone. Hopefully that was the reason and not because she’s a bit too green around the ears and doesn’t know to customize/cater to her clients yet. So you didn’t know you signed up for an adventurous food tour? Was it a mistake on your part the guide’s? She should have taken you for the jellyfish like the guide “Flora and Note” got. They had told their guide to take them to places local Viets enjoy…so that kind of leaves it wide open for interpretation. Hahaha! It did make for an interesting video, though.
Yea, I think she had less to work with due to the timing of it all. Ashley set the tour up, and didn’t tell me what we were doing as I’m usually pretty easy going. When I got there and she said adventurous, I knew I was in for it! 😅😂 Glad you liked the video! I did my best without Ashley along. I never knew how tough it would be to film without her… let alone edit a video without all her silliness lol.
Also, when you see the letters tr or ch in Vietnamese, just make a j sound. It would sound more authentic than trying to make the tr or ch sound from an English speaker. Remember that the t and th sounds are swapped from their English counterparts.
Oh! Ok, interesting. I always heard tr as ch, and ch as inbetween that and j, but this is also really helpful. Thanks! Next time, my pronunciation will be even better! 🙏
@@mikeandashley I'm Vietnamese, but I did spend my younger years in Laos, so maybe I cannot distinguish the tr and ch sounds like a proper Viet person. I've always said it with a j sound for both and that's what I hear others saying (but I may have just become tone deaf to it all).
I did too! 😭 Plus, she could have helped me eat some of this food! She woke up not feeling well, and as it was quite early in the morning, I didn't want to cancel, so I took the tour solo. Thanks for watching. 🤗
She's feeling fine now. I'm working on the next one now. We'll have two videos from Hanoi, and one or two from Sapa as well! We're happy you're excited for the new videos!
Aw, that’s so sweet! 🫶 No, she was fine, just a bit under the weather. I was missing her too. It’s much more fun to film with her! And it was kind of challenging to just film myself haha.
The tour guide lack of understand of Vietnamese foods, when she explained how to eat the rice steaming rolls, the hanoi peaple never put basils and coriander into fish sauce bowl
