Thank you so much! We’re so excited to explore Vietnam. We have a lot more in store. 🤗 Everything has been wonderful! The people, the food and the sights!
Why afraid for foods. All the foids are so good. We are not the West Side . We are in Asia everybody. 😎😎😎😎I love all kids of foods in vietnam and it's very cheaper more than USA Or GERMANY and and... 😁😁😁
Ashley. That is korrectly. We are in Asia and mot in the West side. I love all kind of foods in vietnam. It's so cheap more than another country. I will go to vietnam. I dort live to live in the west side. 😀😀🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
About the quail: the condiment you were given are salt/pepper mixture and a kumquat, you're supposed to squeeze the kumquat into the salt/pepper mixture then dip the quail with it. The green under the quail is Vietnamese corriander (rau răm), and yes you're suppose to eat it. Vietnamese traditional dishes and street food don't have decorative elements in it, so if you find anything in your plate, you can eat it. And when you don't know how to eat something, just ask everyone around, everyone will be happy to help you.
Thanks so much! We figure this out as our trip goes on. 😅 This was our first real experience with Vietnamese food, but 100% won’t be our last! Thank you so much for the tips. We’re really appreciate it! Thanks for watching. 🥰🤗
@@mikeandashley I hope you don't have a bad experience because you're eating it wrong :). And yes, eat the green stuff in between bites, as it cleans the palate because Vietnamese food can get too tasty.
Vietnam has lots of popular and cheap dishes that are very attractive to tourists so when people from USA, Europe and other continent come to Vietnam they do not have to spend much but still enjoy it happily.🙂🙂🙂
6:47 that tiny little bowl of fish sauce, and those herbs and lettuces. plus a chili paste are the whole set. It is meant eating with that thing. The right way to eat is put the lettuce on your hand and then take one piece of that “banh khot” put it on top of it, then adding all those different kind of mints and herbs on top and wrap it altogether. Then take a little (or a lot depend on how spicy that u can eat) chili paste put into the fish sauce and stirring well. Then finally dip that wrapped thing into the chili 🌶️ fish sauce and eat it or bite it. Anyway, no one put the chili paste on top of that thing and eat it like that, and even eat without lettuce and herbs and eat without dipping into those delicious fish sauce with chili paste. Well, the way you guys ate it, it’s a totally wrong way to eat this kind of foods.So u only can taste less than 50% out of it. Instead of the full tastes out of this dish. It’s definitely a different levels.
We’ve learned so much about how to eat Vietnamese food through the comment section! We are so grateful to have you and your advice on how to eat your cuisine. ☺️😋 Now when we try things we’ll get the full flavor! 🤗 Thanks for watching.
i wish you guys had someone with you that could describe all the foods you guys didnt recognize, it's so much more fun, but i'm glad to see you guys dived in and just went for it. a lot more adventurous than i would be!
We also wish we’d had someone along to explain things, but we’re used to just figuring it out on our own! 😂 Now we know so much more, so when we return, we’ll be ready!
8:45 Cơm lam Tây nguyên: Sticky rice grows in the central highlands and is cooked inside a bamboo tube. Its purple color is derived naturally from the leaves of the magenta plant, also known as lá cẩm in Vietnamese.
It's funny when the woman selling avocado icecream told you to "sit down". As a Vietnamese, I'm sure that she didn't say in a mean way, just because they don't use English too fluently.
Hello Mike and Ashley, Hope you two have been well in Vietnam. If you have the chance to visit Hà Nội, I recommend this list to try bc Hà Nội is famous for it. 1 Chả cá Lã Vọng, recommended in the previous comment. 2 Chả rươi. Basically, it’s the sea worm fried cake. Not sure if it’s in season or not. Ask the locals to find out. 3 Bún chả. Already recommended. Even our then president Barrack Obama tried when he visited Hà Nội. 4 Bún riêu ốc. People in Hà Nội have their unique recipe for this dish. Highly recommended. 5 Phở. I’m sure you both have had phở in Sài Gòn, but phở in Hà Nội is different! Try to get up early in the morning and go out to eat while it’s still cool. Ask the locals for their recommendation bc Hà Nội style phở is very unique. 6 Bún thang. 7 Bánh cuốn. I myself was born in Sài Gòn but my parents came from Hà Nội. That’s how I learned about the northern style cuisine. Even my children cooking skills influenced by the northern taste as well. Enough of that for now. Enjoy your trip. Be safe and healthy. Thank you for your videos. I really enjoy them.
Not gonna lie, chicken nuggies do sound pretty good sometimes! But the food in Vietnam is next level! Thanks for watching all the way from CA! We miss it there. Best weather ever. 🙏🙏
Thanks! We visit most of those. We had to pick and chose as we only had thirty days in the country, and we needed break days to get caught up on work and editing videos! But we want to explore the whole country. Vietnam has so much to offer and is such a magical place. We love it so much.
nice video. yes you are suppose to eat the greens with the dish. usually it is an herb that help elevate the flavor overall. I love the desserts in vietnam. looking forward to see all your videos in vietnam. try all the desserts.
That makes so much sense! We always add things from the table to our dishes now. We just didn’t know this time! We were still very new in Vietnam. The deserts are interesting! What’s your favorite? We’re so happy you enjoy our videos. We have many more coming from our travels in Vietnam, so there should be plenty for you to watch! Thanks for following along!
Here some place in Vietnam would want to see and you can google image how the place look like: Phu Quoc Island, Dalat, Danag, Hoi An, Nha Trang, Ha Long Bay, The Marble Mountain, Ninh Binh, Dragon Statue Mountain in Tam Coc, Hue, Ba Na Hill, and Ban Gioc waterfall. You can google image to see what the place look like.
There is plenty of Vietnamese food in America. It’s actually quite popular. We didn’t experience any bad quality food during our trip in Vietnam so far.
You are handsome and your wife Ashley is very pretty.. keep doing it, you guys will be super famous later.. And you will make a lot of money.. You are a nice guy and your wife love to explore something new too.. Thats a perfect couple for reviewing foods
Here are some Vietnamese food you should try out Com Sườn Nướng, Bun Thit Nuong, Bánh cuốn, Nem Nướng Cuon (Spring Roll), Bò Lúc Lắc, Bánh Xèo, Bánh mì, Pho Tai Chín, Bún Bò Huế, Thit Kho,
Da Lat is our next location! However, it does take us a little bit of time to edit our vlogs, so we’ve already left Da Lat, but we hope you’ll enjoy our video. ☺️🤗 What are your recommendations? We are sure to visit Vietnam again now that they are extending the visa, and Da Lat was one of our favorite places so we know we’ll be back! ☺️🤗 Thank you so much for watching! ☺️🥰
Thank you! We feel like being open to new things is one of the most important parts of travel. And food is so unique to each place we’ve been. Thank you for watching and enjoying our vlog. ☺️🙏
Aw, thanks so much!! 🥰🥰 And that’s good to hear! 😅😂 We always wonder if anything is being said when we’re not paying attention/can’t understand. It’s a relief to know that we’re likable. ☺️🤗
@@mikeandashley Try the version with passion fruit...I hear it's even better! There's also another version with I think pineapple and orange juice and something else...one of the vloggers tried it based on a local recommendation and said it was absolutely delicious.
Hi again, Another suggestion on menu list. 1 Bò nướng lá lốt ( minced beef wrapped with LOT leaves) 2 Bún thang 3 Bún mọc 4 Bún mắm ( this type of bún might be too much for you to handle, but if you can handle the strong flavor of it, highly recommended). The reason is bc its broth is cooked from fermented fish. I myself love it. Enjoy your trip. Best of luck to you two.
Hi Mike and Ashley, Just a reminder, don’t forget the tropical fruits! You went to Thailand so I’m pretty sure that you two are aware that it’s a mistake to skip the fruits. Eat them fresh or in form of smoothie is just as good. Not sure what fruits are in season currently. Ask the locals for their recommendation. Stay safe and healthy. Have a great day.
Ho Thi Ky market is a market in District 10 where there is a wide variety of food and drinks. Wish you have a trip to experience the streets of Saigon happily and full of happiness ^^
Cám ơn hai bạn đã đến đất n việt nam thân thiện. Hai bạn mới trải ngiệm ẩn thực trong nam .hai bạn đến hải phòng.nam định thử các món bánh mì.phở đặc biệt tuyệt vời của hương vị miền bắc việt nam.
lol, you supposed to squeeze kumquat juice into salt & pepper then dip the quail into the mixture and eat with the Vietnamese coriander. Give it another try next time.
😅 Thanks for letting us know! We really had no idea what we were doing, but we still managed to make it taste good! Thanks for the tip, we’ll try it that way next time. ✌️☺️
I LOVE BANH MI TOO. HAVE YOU TRIED THE ONE IN THI NGHE MARKET IN BINH THANH DISTRICT, VERY CHEAP ONLY 15,000 BUT IF YOU LIKE MORE MEAT THEY WILL CHARGE YOU MORE, 20,000. AFTER COVID, I'M NOT SURE THEY'RE STILL THERE OR CLOSE.
Oh we haven’t tried that one! 😱 15k is so affordable! Hopefully they made it through Covid. We’re not in HCMC any more, but next time we are there we will have to check it out. ☺️🙏 Thanks for the suggestion!
That can be a problem anywhere we’ve traveled! 😂 So many new foods to try! However, we actually lost weight during our 30-days in Vietnam! Not sure if it is because of less preservatives than in the US or because we were eating a lot of rice and rice noodles, but something did the trick! Just wait till we get towards the end of the series, you’ll notice a huge difference! Thanks for watching. ☺️🙏
@@mikeandashley In fact, the street food in Vietnam is usually the ones that don't have a lot of fat. So you can comfortably enjoy. Unless you are someone who easily gains weight 😂
It depends on what we eat I suppose. Some food has so much added sugar that is snuck in there! That can be tricky. And some food is just too good to stop eating. 😅😂
@@mikeandashley In Ho Chi Minh City, the dishes usually have a higher sweetness. Yes, in addition to fat, sugar is not really good. One piece of advice: if you don't want to eat a lot of sugar, tell the shopkeeper to reduce the sugar in the dish. One more thing: even though it's the same dish (for example, pho), there are different recipes in each region. Please enjoy to the fullest! Wishing you good health and happy travels.
@@mikeandashley I was actually surprised at your tonality...that is something most Americans struggle with even years of trying to learn it but you Ashley said it perfectly when asking how much.
Bạn có trải nghiệm taxi công nghệ ở vn không rẻ lắm đó, mỗi điều là giờ cao điểm các tp lớn di chuyển hơi chậm! Chào mừng du khách nước ngoài đến Việt Nam,cảm ơn các bạn!
Have you tried Ngon 138 Restaurant in D3, it pretty much has everything in one place and always see a lot of foreigners there. I always like to eat at least once whenever I visited Vietnam. It's a different atmosphere/version other than the street vendors. TripAdvisor had a 4/5 for it as well.
This makes us even more excited to visit HCMC in the future! Hanoi didn't really have many street food stalls like this when we lived there. The markets were always 90% goods and clothes (though maybe its changed now). Its nice to see a whole collection of street food stalls in one spot. I was waiting for one of you to bite the head off the quail. Ozzy Osbourne style. 😂
Right! I told you it was street food! This place is a must visit for sure. Aannnd… we were thinking about it, but it wasn’t for us lol. We will try some stranger things on our trip as we go I’m sure. But we had to ease ourselves into this one. 😅😂
@@mikeandashley Fair enough. You guys are already slowly getting more experimental, so I'm already proud of you both! Next stop, sheeps head! Hahaha. 🐑👁
@@mikeandashley There are so many organ dishes throughout Asia. Some are actually quite good! Have you guys tried chicken hearts yet? They're pretty yummy. Just start small- and you may be pleasantly surprised. 😛
We try them when we can. Little bites here and there. We were super tired one day, actually I think right before we left HCMC, and we got noodles that had congealed pigs blood cubes. We tried those, Ashley was the one pushing for it surprisingly lol. Wasn’t really for us. We tried pigs heart yesterday. Perhaps we’re just not getting it prepared just right, but it just hit home the way we’d like lol. Your recommendations for later on in the series though! 👌🤌 We’ll give you a proper shout out. 🙏
Chúc chuyến đi du lịch của các bạn tại đất nước Việt Nam thật vui vẻ,và thưởng thức thật nhiều món ăn ngon nhé,Việt Nam luôn mến khách và thân thiện,các bạn đã đến đất nước tự do đích thực.
as a local born in saigon, i can guarantee that you only need 400-500$ to live for 1 month here if you live alone, including rent and meals, Living. Of course if you live in the countryside the cost is even lower
@@mikeandashleyi want to remind you when walking the walking streets, you may meet cosplayers, they will want to take a picture with you or give you a candy, you should refuse because they will ask for your money, 100,000VND equivalent to about more than 5$
You should dip the banh Khot in the fish sauce because this sauce makes all the difference in the taste of that dish . That citrus is not orange but kumquat or calamansi .
I ended up pouring the fish sauce on the banh khot. I don’t love the way fish sauce smells, but it sure does add an amazing flavor to things! ☺️ Thanks for the info! We appreciate it! 🤗
@@mikeandashley my favorite Banh Mi is on CMT8 street, in front of the Tân Bình high school, i used to eat there when i was little.. i ate so many places for 30 years, but theyre still the best.. If you come back, you should try squid stir fry with pineapple and cucumber, tomato, you eat with white rice, its really good and everybody can eat it
That sounds interesting! We’ll have to check it out. And we’ll definitely hunt down that Banh Mi! If it’s your favorite, it’s probably absolutely delicious! You have so many recommendations! ☺️😋
You guys did a great job of trying out exotic foods on your own. I always recommend foreigners go on a food tour in every city possible as Vietnamese food is challenging for those unfamiliar (e.g. not squeezing the kumquat juice into the salt and pepper to make a dip for the quail or not eating banh khot with the fish sauce and herbs/veggies). The best food tours I've seen came out of Hanoi from videos like "Flora and Note", "Sammy and Tommy", "This Food Bangz", MomDuty, etc. "Chase and Shelbs" got a great guide in HCMC and "Steph and Pete" got an awesome guide in Hoi An. All the foreigners I've seen loved the food tours and raved about them. Plus, the food videos often get the highest views...not that I'm for that all the time as I love seeing other things besides just food. LOL
We KNOW! We should have done a food tour. We messed up! We end up trying some really unique dishes on our own, even some we haven’t seen on any vlogs later on in the series. Thank you for all the recommendations of things to check out. We really appreciate it! ☺️🙏
Hi, Don’t know if this will help or not, but I’m going to give you a list of suggestions of Vietnamese dishes that I would eat myself when I have the chance to go back. You two can try whichever one or whenever you’d like to. For the appetizer, try different kinds of gỏi (salad) For the main course, try these 1 bún chả, 2 bún bò, 3 bún riêu ốc, 4 chả cá lã vọng, 5 cơm tấm sườn nướng, 6 nem nướng, 7 canh chua cá lóc, 8 phở, 9 mì quảng, 10 bánh xèo, 11 bánh cuốn. For the desert, try 1 chuối bọc nếp nướng with coconut milk, (basically, it’s the grilled ice cream banana wrapped with sticky rice that soaked with coconut milk), 2 các loại chè( different types of sweet soup), các loại bánh ( different types of cakes). Can’t help you to translate the main courses into English. It’s better that you show it to the restaurant or food vendors staffs and ask for what you want to try. Have a safe trip. Thank you for sharing your experience with us.
Wow! Thank you so much for all this info. 🤗 We’ve seen some of these dishes around and have tried some others! We’ll definitely check them out when we have the chance! Thanks for the tips and for watching. ☺️ Have a great day!
rules of thumb : when any dishes you order and they give yoy alot of greens.. you supposed to wrap the food in it and eat it.. it taste better wrap in lettuce etc
you need try these dishes Bun Bo Hue -Spicy beef noodle, Banh canh Cua - crab noodle, Com tam bi thit nuong , Bun thit nuong - broken rice grilled pork or noodle, Recommend order Thap cam- mean combination
You ate the Quail(bird, quail egg), the "orange" you thought that is kumquat. You squeeze kumquat to pepper salt and dip it! PS: I hope the traveler understands about Vietnamese speak English because they try to speak the English to you!
Thanks for clarifying! We understand that they speak English very well, one of the things we try to do when we come to any country that speaks a different language is learn some of the language if we can! We know that we probably sound ridiculous pronouncing some of the things, but we like to try! Everyone was very kind to us and helped us with our understanding of things. ☺️🙏
We know! 😅 We thought about it after the fact. We’re usually so stubborn and just try to figure it out ourselves, but now we want to come back and do a food tour in each city! We’ll probably try new foods we’d never think of!
Mmm! It was so good! We figured that out eventually, and it really elevated the dish! Thanks for the tips and for supporting! We hope you’ll follow along and enjoy our adventure with us. ☺️🤗
Right?! It’s the best way to eat when you’re traveling. And we were so shocked at the prices! Vietnam has so many inexpensive food options and they are ALL delicious from what we’ve discovered so far!

Thanks so much! As someone who was criticized for having a bland palette, this means a lot! 🥰
Why afraid for foods. All the foids are so good. We are not the West Side . We are in Asia everybody. 😎😎😎😎I love all kids of foods in vietnam and it's very cheaper more than USA Or GERMANY and and... 😁😁😁
Exactly! The food is so good! And it’s so fun to try new things. 🤗

☺️☺️☺️
you pour that bag of salt and black pepper in the little bowl, then squeeze kumquat on the salt/pepper. give a little stir then dip the quail in.
Such a trick! We did it backwards! 😅 We squeezed it all onto the quail!
Hahaha! It’s not that they’re good at selling, but it’s you that have a big heart! This world can take some more kind hearted people like you.
Aw, thanks so much! That means the world to us. 🥹🥰
We LOOOOOOVE street food in Vietnam 😍😍👍👍😉😉 Great vlog guys we have really enjoyed it 👍👍

Hello Mike and Ashley,
Hope you two have been well in Vietnam.
If you have the chance to visit Hà Nội, I recommend this list to try bc Hà Nội is famous for it.
1 Chả cá Lã Vọng, recommended in the previous comment.
2 Chả rươi. Basically, it’s the sea worm fried cake. Not sure if it’s in season or not. Ask the locals to find out.
3 Bún chả. Already recommended. Even our then president Barrack Obama tried when he visited Hà Nội.

7 Bánh cuốn.
I myself was born in Sài Gòn but my parents came from Hà Nội. That’s how I learned about the northern style cuisine. Even my children cooking skills influenced by the northern taste as well.
Enough of that for now.
Enjoy your trip. Be safe and healthy.

You guys are lovely. Thanks for visiting HCM city. You should try sugar cane juice with kumquat, it's one of the best drinks for summer in Vietnam
Thanks so much! That drink sounds delicious; we’ll have to try it. 🥰
Here are some Vietnamese food you should try out
Com Sườn Nướng,
Bun Thit Nuong,
Bánh cuốn,
Nem Nướng Cuon (Spring Roll),
Bò Lúc Lắc,
Bánh Xèo,
Bánh mì,
Pho Tai Chín,
Bún Bò Huế,
Thit Kho,
We try a good number of those dishes in some of our other videos! So far, everything is delicious! Thank you for the recommendations! ☺️
The citrus you like is Calamansi. If you’re headed to Da Lat and need some recs, let me know! Was just there in April.
Da Lat is our next location! However, it does take us a little bit of time to edit our vlogs, so we’ve already left Da Lat, but we hope you’ll enjoy our video. ☺️🤗 What are your recommendations? We are sure to visit Vietnam again now that they are extending the visa, and Da Lat was one of our favorite places so we know we’ll be back! ☺️🤗 Thank you so much for watching! ☺️🥰
I love your attitude and openness to the different cuisines
Thank you! We feel like being open to new things is one of the most important parts of travel. And food is so unique to each place we’ve been. Thank you for watching and enjoying our vlog. ☺️🙏
Love you guys, you’re cute together and the locals all like you. Nobody said anything bad about you behind your back.
Aw, thanks so much!! 🥰🥰 And that’s good to hear! 😅😂 We always wonder if anything is being said when we’re not paying attention/can’t understand. It’s a relief to know that we’re likable. ☺️🤗
Coi chừng nghiện đó,nghiện rồi khó cai lắm😀
Haha so true! 😅
Wish your family have great travels in my country. love you guys so much.❤❤❤
Thank you so much! ☺️🙏 We would love for our family to be able to come and visit. 🤗
I enjoy this video Thank you❤️
We’re so glad! Thanks for watching. 🥰
Look good yummy
Everything was delicious! We had fun trying new stuff. 🥰
Hey guys simple drink but so awesome super refreshing it’s called sugarcane and Calamansi ( nước mía tắt ) try it guys 🍻🍻👍👍
Ah, we’ve see this recommendation a few times now. We’ll have to try it! 🥰
@@mikeandashley Try the version with passion fruit...I hear it's even better! There's also another version with I think pineapple and orange juice and something else...one of the vloggers tried it based on a local recommendation and said it was absolutely delicious.
That sounds amazing! We’ll have to keep our eyes out for it! 😋
Hi again,
Another suggestion on menu list.
1 Bò nướng lá lốt ( minced beef wrapped with LOT leaves)
2 Bún thang
3 Bún mọc
4 Bún mắm ( this type of bún might be too much for you to handle, but if you can handle the strong flavor of it, highly recommended). The reason is bc its broth is cooked from fermented fish. I myself love it.
Enjoy your trip. Best of luck to you two.
Thanks so much for the recommendations! We don’t care for fish, but we’re eager to try everything else! 🥰
Hi Mike and Ashley,
Just a reminder, don’t forget the tropical fruits! You went to Thailand so I’m pretty sure that you two are aware that it’s a mistake to skip the fruits. Eat them fresh or in form of smoothie is just as good. Not sure what fruits are in season currently. Ask the locals for their recommendation. Stay safe and healthy. Have a great day.
Mmm. We LOVE fruits! 🤗 And smoothies sound so good for a hot day! 😋 Thanks again for the recommendations!
Ho Thi Ky market is a market in District 10 where there is a wide variety of food and drinks. Wish you have a trip to experience the streets of Saigon happily and full of happiness ^^
Thanks so much! We had a great time visiting Ho Thi Ky Market. There was so much delicious food to try! 🥰
Cảm ơn đã chia sẻ !...
No worries! Thanks for watching! ☺️👋
Love you guys trying anything and everything looks amazing. Thank you 😊
Aw, thanks so much! ☺️🙏 We like to try new things when we can! It’s the best part of travel. 🤗 Thanks for watching! 🥰🥰
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Oh yeah, I see you enjoyed the tea a lot, then I suggest you try Trà Đào Cam Sả (Peach Orange Lemongrass Tea), it's a very popular drink in Vietnam.
Ooh! Sounds so delicious! 😋🤗
Cám ơn hai bạn đã đến đất n việt nam thân thiện. Hai bạn mới trải ngiệm ẩn thực trong nam .hai bạn đến hải phòng.nam định thử các món bánh mì.phở đặc biệt tuyệt vời của hương vị miền bắc việt nam.
All of the food is so delicious! We’ve been in food heaven ever since arriving in Vietnam. 😋😋
lol, you supposed to squeeze kumquat juice into salt & pepper then dip the quail into the mixture and eat with the Vietnamese coriander. Give it another try next time.
😅 Thanks for letting us know! We really had no idea what we were doing, but we still managed to make it taste good! Thanks for the tip, we’ll try it that way next time. ✌️☺️
Cảm ơn bạn đã đến với đất nước chúng tôi❤❤❤❤❤
Thanks for welcoming us! 🥰
I LOVE BANH MI TOO. HAVE YOU TRIED THE ONE IN THI NGHE MARKET IN BINH THANH DISTRICT, VERY CHEAP ONLY 15,000 BUT IF YOU LIKE MORE MEAT THEY WILL CHARGE YOU MORE, 20,000. AFTER COVID, I'M NOT SURE THEY'RE STILL THERE OR CLOSE.
Oh we haven’t tried that one! 😱 15k is so affordable! Hopefully they made it through Covid. We’re not in HCMC any more, but next time we are there we will have to check it out. ☺️🙏 Thanks for the suggestion!
Lovely couple ❤️
Aw, thank you so much! 🥰🙏
Culinary tourism in Vietnam has the risk of causing you to gain weight uncontrollably 😂 you may have to eat continuously to try the most dishes!
That can be a problem anywhere we’ve traveled! 😂 So many new foods to try!
However, we actually lost weight during our 30-days in Vietnam! Not sure if it is because of less preservatives than in the US or because we were eating a lot of rice and rice noodles, but something did the trick! Just wait till we get towards the end of the series, you’ll notice a huge difference! Thanks for watching. ☺️🙏
@@mikeandashley In fact, the street food in Vietnam is usually the ones that don't have a lot of fat. So you can comfortably enjoy. Unless you are someone who easily gains weight 😂
It depends on what we eat I suppose. Some food has so much added sugar that is snuck in there! That can be tricky. And some food is just too good to stop eating. 😅😂
@@mikeandashley In Ho Chi Minh City, the dishes usually have a higher sweetness. Yes, in addition to fat, sugar is not really good. One piece of advice: if you don't want to eat a lot of sugar, tell the shopkeeper to reduce the sugar in the dish. One more thing: even though it's the same dish (for example, pho), there are different recipes in each region. Please enjoy to the fullest! Wishing you good health and happy travels.
Thanks so much! The pho is even different shop to shop! It’s a great reason to try allll the food! 🤗
Thanks for this video! The editing is great. Side note: please don't add "s" to represent having multiple bánh mì
HAHAHA I love the way how you learn Vietnamese : How much = Bow New . So Delicious = Rat None .
😅😂 We’re not the best, but we’re trying! 🤷♂️🤷♀️ It’s harder than it looks!
@@mikeandashley I was actually surprised at your tonality...that is something most Americans struggle with even years of trying to learn it but you Ashley said it perfectly when asking how much.
Ashley is a pro, I usually butcher things! Thanks for the vote of confidence! The tones in Vietnamese are very difficult to master!

We actually found transportation to be reasonably priced! Much lower than some other southeast Asian countries!

I bet it would be!
thank you for travelling to my Viet Nam
Thanks for welcoming us! We’re having a great time. 🥰
Have you tried Ngon 138 Restaurant in D3, it pretty much has everything in one place and always see a lot of foreigners there. I always like to eat at least once whenever I visited Vietnam. It's a different atmosphere/version other than the street vendors. TripAdvisor had a 4/5 for it as well.
Oh man! We didn’t get to try this place! 😫 We’ve just added it to our maps for the next time we’re in Saigon. 🙌 Thank you for the recommendations. 🤗
❤❤❤😘😘😘
❤️❤️❤️🤗🤗🤗
This makes us even more excited to visit HCMC in the future! Hanoi didn't really have many street food stalls like this when we lived there. The markets were always 90% goods and clothes (though maybe its changed now). Its nice to see a whole collection of street food stalls in one spot.
I was waiting for one of you to bite the head off the quail. Ozzy Osbourne style. 😂
Right! I told you it was street food! This place is a must visit for sure.
Aannnd… we were thinking about it, but it wasn’t for us lol. We will try some stranger things on our trip as we go I’m sure. But we had to ease ourselves into this one. 😅😂
@@mikeandashley Fair enough. You guys are already slowly getting more experimental, so I'm already proud of you both! Next stop, sheeps head! Hahaha. 🐑👁
😂😂 We’ll see! I’ll try any cuisine… and I can eat the spiciest of foods… but I usually draw the line at organs. Idk why.
@@mikeandashley There are so many organ dishes throughout Asia. Some are actually quite good! Have you guys tried chicken hearts yet? They're pretty yummy. Just start small- and you may be pleasantly surprised. 😛
We try them when we can. Little bites here and there. We were super tired one day, actually I think right before we left HCMC, and we got noodles that had congealed pigs blood cubes. We tried those, Ashley was the one pushing for it surprisingly lol. Wasn’t really for us. We tried pigs heart yesterday. Perhaps we’re just not getting it prepared just right, but it just hit home the way we’d like lol. Your recommendations for later on in the series though! 👌🤌 We’ll give you a proper shout out. 🙏
Chúc chuyến đi du lịch của các bạn tại đất nước Việt Nam thật vui vẻ,và thưởng thức thật nhiều món ăn ngon nhé,Việt Nam luôn mến khách và thân thiện,các bạn đã đến đất nước tự do đích thực.
Thanks so much! Everyone has been so welcoming. We’re having a wonderful time. 🥰
as a local born in saigon, i can guarantee that you only need 400-500$ to live for 1 month here if you live alone, including rent and meals, Living.
Of course if you live in the countryside the cost is even lower
We would LOVE to live in Viegnam. We keep talking about it. 😊
@@mikeandashleyi want to remind you when walking the walking streets, you may meet cosplayers, they will want to take a picture with you or give you a candy, you should refuse because they will ask for your money, 100,000VND equivalent to about more than 5$
Thanks for the heads up! ☺️🙏
You should dip the banh Khot in the fish sauce because this sauce makes all the difference in the taste of that dish . That citrus is not orange but kumquat or calamansi .
I ended up pouring the fish sauce on the banh khot. I don’t love the way fish sauce smells, but it sure does add an amazing flavor to things! ☺️ Thanks for the info! We appreciate it! 🤗
Bánh Mì Huỳnh Hoa is really good, theyre not far away from Chợ Bến Thành..
We went there! I can’t remember if it makes it into a video or not though. It was delicious!
@@mikeandashley my favorite Banh Mi is on CMT8 street, in front of the Tân Bình high school, i used to eat there when i was little.. i ate so many places for 30 years, but theyre still the best.. If you come back, you should try squid stir fry with pineapple and cucumber, tomato, you eat with white rice, its really good and everybody can eat it
That sounds interesting! We’ll have to check it out. And we’ll definitely hunt down that Banh Mi! If it’s your favorite, it’s probably absolutely delicious! You have so many recommendations! ☺️😋
You guys did a great job of trying out exotic foods on your own. I always recommend foreigners go on a food tour in every city possible as Vietnamese food is challenging for those unfamiliar (e.g. not squeezing the kumquat juice into the salt and pepper to make a dip for the quail or not eating banh khot with the fish sauce and herbs/veggies). The best food tours I've seen came out of Hanoi from videos like "Flora and Note", "Sammy and Tommy", "This Food Bangz", MomDuty, etc. "Chase and Shelbs" got a great guide in HCMC and "Steph and Pete" got an awesome guide in Hoi An. All the foreigners I've seen loved the food tours and raved about them. Plus, the food videos often get the highest views...not that I'm for that all the time as I love seeing other things besides just food. LOL
We KNOW! We should have done a food tour. We messed up! We end up trying some really unique dishes on our own, even some we haven’t seen on any vlogs later on in the series. Thank you for all the recommendations of things to check out. We really appreciate it! ☺️🙏
Hi,
Don’t know if this will help or not, but I’m going to give you a list of suggestions of Vietnamese dishes that I would eat myself when I have the chance to go back. You two can try whichever one or whenever you’d like to.
For the appetizer, try different kinds of gỏi (salad)
For the main course, try these
1 bún chả, 2 bún bò, 3 bún riêu ốc, 4 chả cá lã vọng,
5 cơm tấm sườn nướng, 6 nem nướng, 7 canh chua cá lóc, 8 phở, 9 mì quảng, 10 bánh xèo, 11 bánh cuốn.
For the desert, try 1 chuối bọc nếp nướng with coconut milk, (basically, it’s the grilled ice cream banana wrapped with sticky rice that soaked with coconut milk), 2 các loại chè( different types of sweet soup), các loại bánh ( different types of cakes).
Can’t help you to translate the main courses into English. It’s better that you show it to the restaurant or food vendors staffs and ask for what you want to try.
Have a safe trip.
Thank you for sharing your experience with us.
Wow! Thank you so much for all this info. 🤗 We’ve seen some of these dishes around and have tried some others! We’ll definitely check them out when we have the chance! Thanks for the tips and for watching. ☺️ Have a great day!
@@mikeandashley
The pleasure is mine. Have a great weekend.
Thanks, you too! 🤗
When you’re come back to VN again please let me know if I have time will go with you guys please thanks for your understanding,?
@@tuoinguyen805
Hi Tươi Nguyễn,
Did you ask me or Mike and Ashley?
rules of thumb : when any dishes you order and they give yoy alot of greens.. you supposed to wrap the food in it and eat it.. it taste better wrap in lettuce etc
Oh, good to know! Thanks for the information. 😊
Next time, squeeze the kumquat (tiny green lime) into the bag of salt and pepper to make a dipping sauce for your next fried dry quail
Wish we would have known this! Would have been even more delicious! 🤗😋
you need try these dishes Bun Bo Hue -Spicy beef noodle, Banh canh Cua - crab noodle, Com tam bi thit nuong , Bun thit nuong - broken rice grilled pork or noodle, Recommend order Thap cam- mean combination
Looking forward to it! 😋 Thanks for all the delicious recommendations! ☺️✌️
Banh Xeo, Com Ga ,Banh cuong etc
Yes! It all sounds so good. We have fallen IN LOVE with Vietnamese food! 😋😋
chuc 2 ban co ky nghi hanh phuc o viet nam
Thank you so much! ✌️☺️ We love it so much. 🥰
You ate the Quail(bird, quail egg), the "orange" you thought that is kumquat. You squeeze kumquat to pepper salt and dip it!
PS: I hope the traveler understands about Vietnamese speak English because they try to speak the English to you!
Thanks for clarifying! We understand that they speak English very well, one of the things we try to do when we come to any country that speaks a different language is learn some of the language if we can! We know that we probably sound ridiculous pronouncing some of the things, but we like to try! Everyone was very kind to us and helped us with our understanding of things. ☺️🙏
She say "Sit" is sit down please..! , not sh..t :)))
Welcome to Vietnam..
😂😂 Thanks for the warm welcome! And for watching. 🥰🙏
Việt Nam là nơi bình yên nhất thế giới chào mừng các bạn ❤❤❤❤❤❤
It sure is lovely! Thanks! ☺️🙏
Must try: Cơm Tấm, Hủ Tiếu, Phở, Bánh Mì in saigon🎉
😋😋 Sounds delicious!
2 vợ chồng ra nhiều clip nhé
We are! We have so many vlogs from our time in Vietnam coming out! ☺️🥰✌️
You guy need to hire a food tour guide. They will take you to eat out in Saigon for entire day.
We know! 😅 We thought about it after the fact. We’re usually so stubborn and just try to figure it out ourselves, but now we want to come back and do a food tour in each city! We’ll probably try new foods we’d never think of!
A quail in that street only costs 25,000 dong? its supper cheap. I thought it would cost at least 50,000 dong today lol
We've seen them vary in price, but yeah, this one was only 25k! So affordable!
the lime you supposed to squeeze on the peeper and salt and dip the quail into it and eat them. taste much more better
Oh, that makes sense. We’ll have to try it that way next time. Thanks for letting us know! 😊
Squeeze lemon over salt to make a sauce, then dip the quail in it. have fun
Mmm! It was so good! We figured that out eventually, and it really elevated the dish! Thanks for the tips and for supporting! We hope you’ll follow along and enjoy our adventure with us. ☺️🤗
Love the video! Do you have the address on the street you went to?
Thanks so much! ☺️🙏 Here’s a link: maps.app.goo.gl/Qg5VrXb4PwxCQ32F6?g_st=ic Enjoy!
Hi guys!! Could you share the location please? I'll go there in a few weeks
Of course! Here is the map link:
g.co/kgs/oGCPg2
If that doesn’t work for some reason, try Googling “Ho Thi Ky Food Street.”
Have fun! 😊
@@mikeandashley Yeah thank you very much, it does work!!🍻
Great news! Have fun. 🤗
Quail looks tasty 😅
It was! Ashley nailed the description, but the seasoning was next level! That little tart orange thing was so interesting!
I love street food and $11 for all that it's amazing
Right?! It’s the best way to eat when you’re traveling. And we were so shocked at the prices! Vietnam has so many inexpensive food options and they are ALL delicious from what we’ve discovered so far!
Cám ơn hai bạn đã đến đất nước của chung tôi,hãy khám phá và đưa ra đánh giá khách quan .trung thực về con người và đất nước của chúng tôi.chúng tôi không muốn được tô hồng hay bị bôi đen xin hãy trung thực bạn nhé. Chúc sức khỏe và nhiều niềm vui
We try to be honest in all of our videos, and we really can’t speak highly enough of Vietnam. The people, food, accommodations and scenery were all next level! We have had such an amazing time. We’re already planning a second trip to Vietnam to explore further.
Hey What's up guys
Hey! What’s up?! 👋☺️
Tôi mong rằng các bạn được ăn ngon và vui vẻ hạnh phúc trên đất nước chúng tôi
We will! And we are! 🥰🥰
