DAILY LIVING in DA NANG, VIETNAM 2024 (NEW Restaurant and GROCERY costs)
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 18 มิ.ย. 2024
- Today we take you across the river for lunch at another great spot, Papa Steakhouse. Then we stroll through a new supermarket (kind of like a Costco) and compare some grocery prices, you won't believe what we paid for APPLES!! Then lastly, we take a stroll through the new DaNang Walking Street Market at night. It's a great place to hang out with a tea, coffee or ice cream! Hope you enjoy the stroll.
Thank you so much for watching!
❤️ Wattstraveling!

I plan to retire In Da Nang so this daily expenditure at the stores helps give me a lot of information.
No, nice! There is lots more to come. We are here for 3 months!
The market seems to have everything, just like in America. Thanks again for sharing!
Hi there 👋 Yeah, it reminded me of Cosco or a Sam's Club. The only thing it didn't have was a pool floatie 🤣🤣 you are very welcome and thank YOU for watching and leaving a comment!
I love Danang. It will be the retirement for me.
Not a bad place to pick! Happy retirement!
I love it too and considering it for semi retirement.
I went to Barranquilla Colombia last year for 3 months to explore. My research is showing me that Da Nang Vietnam is cheaper than Barranquilla.
Have you had problems anywhere yet with rats 🐀 ? , I heard that was a pretty big problem there , I’m planning to spend 6 months a year there probably DaNang . Thank you for your videos , there informative for someone like me coming there after my major back surgery 😂
What a vibrant and funky city! You guys are so giddy and exude great joy.
Awe, thank you for that! ❤️
Waching you from Italy, well done!! 👍
Hello Italy 👋 it's on our list too! ❤️ thanks for watching 😊
Thank you for sharing my hometown to everyone, really appreciate that ❤❤
Hi there! 👋 Yeah, we are looking forward to exploring Danang 😀
Did you see any electric coffee makers? I was in Vietnam 5 months ago and there were none in Nha Trang, in Thailand there were almost none.
@GipsyDean not that I can recall? Next time we go back I'll be sure to look! 👍
Beautiful city
It really is! 😍
If your staying in Vietnam for longer term, u should get a Vietnamese bank account ..HSBC is crazy with cost as well as your home bank.
We don't get charged any fees with our bank back home. 👍 Once we settle on a country, we will definitely open a bank account
I'm enjoying your vlogs. Are the both of you permanently retired in Vietnam as I plan to retire there in the next couple of years and have chosen Da Nang as my primary city to reside. I'm Vietnamese and have lived in the US most my life.
@huey8431 hi there! Thanks for watching! We are BOTH retired yes! .... but still looking for our "home away from home". DaNang is very beautiful we look forward to coming back in upcoming years. Enjoy Retirement 😉
Thanks for showing the city center. I now have an idea of what it looks like. I plan to visit soon.
Oh very nice! There's lots more to see and do in Da Nang so stay tuned in! We are here for 3 months 👍
Never seen someone hold a fork like that
You're welcome 🤣🤣
Thanks for the grocery shopping trip. Didn't know that it's so expensive! For example, the packet of 3 in 1 Nescafe, it's almost $10 more expensive than in Malaysia. 😮
I think you might be confusing money? 48 pack of nescafe is 6.10 CAD and for 25 pack of nescafe is 3.75 CAD..... so I'd say they are about the same, give or take 1 dollar CAD 👍 we wouldn't buy it if it were THAT expensive! 🤣🤣
@@wattstraveling sorry, i meant Malaysian ringgit. I'll watch your video again to confirm.
@kimwong874 13 Ringgit vs 57,000 Dong 😁
Didn’t see all the shops on waterside when I went there last year
It's new, just opened! 👍
Seems like grocery prices are less expensive in the US.
@randallmiller7082 yeah, for most things.... all depends on what you are buying.
OK you made me laugh, .. LOL
Good information , oh and yesterday it was 42 C 107 F in Toronto i would say that must be how it feels there all the time.
Food prices seem to be nicely priced, would you agree that Thailand is a little higher priced over all?
Will you be doing days trips so see areas that are near by?
Oh bad news today Donald Sutherland passed, age 88.
Have you found any Canadian products in Da Nang?
Have a safe week.
Don
Hi Don! 👋 Yes, temps are consistently high here! Yes, well be doing day trips in and around Da Nang, those will more than likely be posted on Sundays. Prices are a bit cheaper here than Thailand and some food and restaurants items, we did find Maple syrup! Housing I feel is still affordable in both places! Thanks for watching and the current update on Donald Sutherland. 👍
MMM maple syrup.
Hows the withdrawing of money? ATM 🏧 vs bank? How much cash can u take out? And which one did u guys use?
Love the contents! Keep up the good work
Hi there! We found HSBC back to be the best ATM to withdrawal money. Others will only let you take out under 5 Mil HSBC let's you withdrawal 9Mil! Thanks for the feedback! 👍
Greetings from Maine. I was wondering if there is tipping at restaurants in Vietnam or is it included in the price of your meal and also, how was the service compared to other countries.
Hello Maine! Tipping isn't a thing a Vietnam, I feel like that's a western world kinda thing. Depending on ever you go, the service is good, some.... still need work.
May I ask did you the wifi in the cafe was smoking fast ? I must ve misheard ,sorry my English isn't that good
@@XIYIREN2006 hi there! Papa Steak's wifi wasn't that fast. 😒
Nice place but those petruding lights on the ground is so hazardous, people could so easily tripped over, ocd me will be so nervous and looks everywhere. The vibe of Vietnam is a lot calmer than KL, I'm Malaysian but personally I prefer calmer places.
I totally agree!.... only because I have tripped on them while looking around! It has a good vibe! 👍
Hi is it easy to get food poison in Da nang ? is it easy to find organic vegetable and fruits and nuts in Da nang ? Thank You
Hey there! 👋 I always follow the this rule..... if you are going to eat street food, it has to be made in front of me (not cooked and sitting out) ready to be bought.... it's gotta be fresh! 👍 and yes there are many markets to get veggies and fruit, meat, nuts and dried goods too! 👍
Shopping seems expensive
Depends on what you buy, I suppose. What are you comparing it to?
Do they have a delivery service in the grocery stores, where you order and they deliver
On the grab app you can choose the store you want like LotteMart grocery store pick your items from the list and have it delivery 👍
@@wattstraveling sweeet, thank you
@2Rugrats9597 you are welcome 👍
Do you have any information about keeping a dog here in Da Nang? Are there dog friendly neighborhoods, or stores, apartments, etc? Like if i bring my dog in a stroller or a bookbag, can i bring him in places? Hes pretty small only 17lbs.
@samuri2011 sorry, I don't have any experience with that. 😕
Nếu chó của bạn có kích cỡ nhỏ thì bạn có thể đưa nó đi dạo trên đường thoải mái mà không phải đeo rọ mõm, còn nếu chó của bạn to (big size) thì bạn phải đeo rọ mõm khi đưa nó đi dạo để phòng trường hợp nó cắn người khác. Đó là quy định chung. Nếu bạn sống ở nhà dưới mặt đất biệt lập thì bạn nuôi chó thoải mái miễn là nó không đi vệ sinh bừa bãi ở khu dân cư, còn căn hộ chung cư sẽ có nhiều nơi cho nuôi chó, mèo, nhiều nơi không cho nuôi vì vậy bạn muốn ở đâu thì nên hỏi trước
Khi đi dạo bạn cũng có thể mang chó trong bookbag mà không ai nói gì đâu. Người Việt Nam bây giờ cũng nuôi chó rất nhiều và dần dần không muốn ăn thịt chó nữa.
@@msgreen2303ohhhh, thanks for sharing that! Awesome
Good.job
Awe, thanks 😊
where's the beef? Well, there is a reason why nobody in Vietnam knows what Ozempic is.
Didn't really see much of that, but wasn't really looking.
@@wattstraveling sorry, it was an old American joke. "Where's the beef" was a popular 80's Wendy commercial about hamburgers with invisible beef patties. Here, it refers to your steaks that were invisible under the smothering sauce. My point was that the food serving portions in Vietnam (and most Asia) are so small that they don't need semaglutide like Ozempic over there.
🤣🤣🤣🤣 oh yes, I remember that commercial! The servings are definitely bigger in the USA! 🤣
Move there and bring your Harley lol 😂 making friends fast 👍
We don't have a Harley? 🤔🙃
@@wattstraveling It was a joke. I could imagine those large motorcycle around those mopeds lol
@TheTRUth375 Right!.....I have to say you don't see many Harleys here.... with the speed limit being so low and the roads being so congested....scooters are just easier and all you need! 👍🤣
What’s the VISA looking like for Vietnam from an American perspective?
Hi there 👋 Honestly I'm not sure, we are Canadian. We got a 3 month visa ahead of time.
@@wattstravelingThank you for the information…btw very good video.
Very like
Thanks! 👍

when u start rating restaurant on wifi signal
We ALWAYS test the wifi in every place we go to know where the good wifi signals are so that we know where we can work from! 👍
Anything is expensive for both of you, lol
Nope, that's not true. Just comparing prices from places we've been is all. 👍
*_XIN CHÀO_* !
HELLO 👋
5 weeks till im there :)
Hi Adam! 👋 Nice! Have a great time!
The 150 and 200g steak look exactly the same... underwhelming 😅
Well, I couldn't see my steak under the sauce... but I can tell you it was tasty, and who can complain for 8CAD.... not me! We are going back! 👍
how that cat even get in there??
🤣🤣🤣 I have no idea, poor thing
Why do Americans use forks like shovels? Think you need to watch some TH-cam videos on knife and fork etiquette.
@seanmitchell7117 thank you for taking the time to add a ridiculous comment 👍 🤣🤣 How tolerant of you of other cultures....I don't think you'd last in S.E.A! 🤣🤣
I Spend 3 months every year in various parts of SE Asia and it’s on my travels that i have mostly observed Americans eating like this. Mostly in SE Asia it’s either chop sticks or a Fork and a Spoon. How is it a ridiculous comment it’s a genuine question. Are you taught to use like this or is it just a bad habit picked up going through life.
It's not a genuine question at all, it's insulting. The way we use our utensils is completely fine..... not sure how one would eat a steak with Chopsticks or a fork and a spoon? Where are YOU from?
I guess you not accustomed to fine dining restaurants then! I was not suggesting you eat your steak with chop sticks i was pointing out the fact that in Most S E Asia countries they are most popular utensils along with fork and spoon. Usually only westerners would be served with a knife and fork. I honestly think it looks so awkward the way you are using a fork.
@seanmitchell7117 I'd eat the same way no matter what restaurant I was dining in. I believe the term "shovel" when using a dining utensil is when your hand is placed over the handle, not under it.
If you REALLY want to see awkward, you should see me use Chopsticks 🤣🤣🤣
Vietnam is beautiful, but it's so chaotic way more than other SEA countries. It's not for everyone long-term.
Hi there 👋 definitely not for the faint of heart, especially driving! Vietnam is beautiful 😍
Small city is lesser chaotic like da bang.😂😂😂 thanks 4 sharing.
@chautiendung DaNang is definitely less chaotic than Hanoi 👍 more of the island life pace ❤️
Have you been to the high-income areas of Hanoi? They are independent areas with large green areas, clean, beautiful and quiet and there are no motorbikes or cars parked in the garage or anywhere. You want, there are full restaurants, cafes, gyms, schools, hospitals, swimming pools, lots of lakes and forests and people in that area just live and work there. Apartments range from $1.5-7 million
@@hopdenreview those are like a city within a city....I like traditional Hanoi.... not the "build it they will come" neighborhoods! 👍
*_Xin chào các bạn_* !
