your videos are ever evolving and getting better by the day- keep up the great work!
You're such a wonderful host... great places to see, nice history lessons and you of course are the perfect tour guide.
Wow great production quality! you make it really easy for me to not get too stressed out traveling to vietnam! cheers
You seem especially happy this episode. Glad to see you in your element. Nice episode. This is what makes Vietnam so cool. The fact a random apartment room can be a shop lol. I love that because you get such cool views overlooking a street, alley, or city.
Thank you so much! 🤗🤗
Outstanding work! You are a true natural for the camera. Looking forward to the next one 💥
I'm a Vietnamese/Canadian chef and I've always been interested in the origins of how certain dishes came about, which is why I really enjoyed this video you've shared with us so thank you. Love your contents. Keep up the great work! Also will you possibly be doing food tours in the near future?
Thank you so much! 🤗🤗
4:47 - it's a turbine vent: passive ventilation system. A turbine vent spins with the slightest breeze. As soon as it starts to spin, it vacuums air out of your building. The faster it spins, the more air it exhausts.
Great video Van, nice to see you back making videos and doing what you passionately love. Saigon has changed so much over the past 10 years. I would love to check out some of the places the next time I come back to visit.
Thank you so much! 🤗🤗
Good to see you making videos. Keep up the good work.
just catching up on your content, em! good job with this video! love all the different angles, lighting and how you walked us through from beginning to end. I know you sure ate on ny behalf as well. miss Vietnamese coffee so much!!! and I love how it's very informative!
So glad to see you back on TH-cam 🤗......I really enjoy your approach to editing and content on your vlog......so much, that I am sure to watch this again. The blending of culinary, historical and cultural points is most interesting.😊.....can't wait to see where you will take us next!!!!!
Thank you so much! 🤗🤗
Really enjoyed this video. Love the history lessons and how you showed more original dishes that arent normally shown on other channels. Keep sharing and keep up the great work.
Your video is so good! The quality of the content also very good❤❤❤
Thank you so much for this video!! I didn't know about some of these dishes when I was in Vietnam last year, when I go later this year i'm definitely gonna try these!! You look so happy making these videos, I hope you can keep doing this as long as you like!
Great video, sis ❤❤❤ Love to see you back.
Great video Van! It is so exciting when I see something like this where I haven't been to any of the places. Now I have a great itinerary of places to try on my next trip!
This is incredibly well produced and shot. What a fantastic glimpse in sgn life.
Love your channel!!
These are some beautiful areas in Ho Chi Minh City. The locals of Ho Chi Minh City are so nice and welcoming. The Cold Brew drink looks really good to drink.
Glad you’re back
Watching from rural Hokkaido, Japan, admiring the fantastic decor in each of these places and drooling over the delectable looking dishes. Love Vietnamese cuisine so much.
Great video. Keep up the great content.
Love the vid….Keep up the great work
Always glad to see a fellow Vietnamese American do well while promoting the home country in the process. Congrats on the success.
If I remember correctly she was born in Vietnam, went to America during high school and decided to go back to Vietnam
I may not be correct, but if I am right she's not American. She just well educated, and speaks English really well...
I just started learning Vietnamese and absolutely love your videos!
Epic production quality on this one and you’re doing a great job of capturing modern Saigon!
Thanks Alex 🤗
We call it a "roof turbine" - a type of attic exhaust vent. They help remove any built-up heat and moisture inside the attic.
Hi! Van. Thank You for sharing this interesting travel log. All the food look so tasty and delicious. Hope to get a chance to try them when in Saigon. Looking forward to your next video. Cheers!🥂
Gud to see ya back, Van! The rolling circle thing on the rooftop is air flow - "cầu lọc gió" which is quite popular in South Vietnam, particularly for factory or big houses!
GREAT VIDEO! I hope I can meet you the next time I am in Saigon...
I have missed your awesome videos this past year. Please make more soon!
Thank you for your work in introducing your culture ❤🇻🇳
You're so obviously such a lovely person, Van. Best wishes from London.
thank you for making such great video i am so excited to be there soon
we'll be visiting Vietnam on the 3rd week of January and we'll definitely use this as a guide for some awesome local cuisines, thank you so much for touring us around, virtually
Welcome back van wu great job always keep it up!❤🎉😮
Great video enjoyed the content well done 👍
glad u are back!!!!
Wow, it's nice to see you back missed you.❤
Great video ❤
Van, you set a new standard for yourself with this video! I am glad you put that disclaimer at the beginning about no pho and no banhmi! I like the interviews with the locals and the provided subtitle translations. A lot of young viet kieus and foreigners will appreciate it. I like the hidden locations that most of us outside Saigon don't know about. The videography with different perspectives and the soundtracks. The color grading is warm, colorful, and professionally consistent!
I'm going back to Vietnam this December and I will check these locations out (if they still exist).
Thank you so much! That’s exactly what I’m aiming for: professional and authentic. Glad you enjoyed the video!
@@WhatThePhovan ; good to see u back , i think if you get some time in future do show the wonderful vincom center & coffee shops, sky tower restaurants. i m sure many wud love it.
Excellent video!
I shall be visiting Saigon again. Thanks for the food tour guide.
Yummy Yummy ! Thanks for the info.
You've convinced us that we've got so much more food to try in Saigon! Will have to go back to one of our fave Southeast Asian cities soon!
this made me miss Vietnam so much... what a place.
Hi van, I am so great to see on the video . The video introduced about some delicious foods and historical buildings. The spining object installed on the roof which helps circulating air. I like the way you talking about the atmosphere which make people so relaxing. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you so much! 🤗🤗
Great video, I’m excited for my first visit to Vietnam next year. Those spinny things on top of those apartment buildings are meant to ventilate hot and stale air to prevent mildew or molds. I imagined it’s pretty useful in Vietnam since it’s very humid.
Yummy Food here!! SO MOUTH WATERING!!
Love Vietnam n your videos so much
I’D WAS HERE AND EATEN SOME YEARS AGO,
VERY DELICIOUS FRIENDLY SERVICE,
Hi Van, I'm new to your channel. I really enjoy your videos. keep up the good work
How I wish Vietnam is my neighbour next door, so that I can walk over there everyday.
Very interesting to know the history that comes with these eating & drinking places.
You did a very thorough study before doing the filming. 👍
We will be traveling to Vietnam in December. Added these restaurants to our list to try out!
Watched you from beginning. Hope u go thru all challenges
Cám ơn chị đã yêu mến đất Sài thành này. Cám ơn chị đã quảng bá đất nước mình cho bạn bè quốc tế 😊❤
Cảm ơn em đã ủng hộ chị ☺️
I took a grab and got lost in a random district on purpose. I walked around and ended up trying tons of street food! Had the snails ever in a random alley lol! I miss Saigon and will be back end of this year!
But Vietnam doesn't give retirement Visa.
@@dongshengdi773 true, it would be nice if they did, but I just use the new E Visa, 90 day multiple entry.
That spinning thing is a ventilation to release hot air and so, cooling down your room.
I need to go Vietnam again, it's so cool!
Love your clip about all special Việt foods which is not many people know, i’ll try all these foods on next return, thankyou
Nice… thanks Van..!! ❤ will visit Vietnam soon… 😉
great content, Van
all these places look amazing!!! makes me so excited to go
Just came back from Vietnam last week and I'm ready to go back after watching this. 🥺
Xem video này nhớ nhà quá, nhớ Sài Gòn những ngày nắng mưa lang thang khắp phố😢. Chỉ có đi xa mới hiểu nhớ quê hương là gì
Thế đi đâu mà nhớ
Awesome breakfast philosophy 😋
Excellent choices!!!
welcome back!!!
The H'mong cuisine is probably gonna be my fav among all the locations you shared. Had the priviledge to experience their local breakfast in the kitchen during my homestay in Sapa. They were cooking a feast for some celebration.
14 Tôn Thất Đạm was indeed a nice place to explore. Stumbled upon it while Googling for a nearby cafe to go to. Such nostalgic place to explore....dark and quiet.
❤so cool, I'll be there soon!
It’s great 2 c that u take care of your mental health & now back 2 your channel👌🏻
I'm travelling from the US to Ho Chi MInh City next month. Can't wait! Thank you for your videos.
I might be moving to Ho Chi Minh for work next year and this made me very excited.
Nice video Vân!
Thanks...I am going to look for that hidden coffee shop.
We were at An‘s house today and SGC yesterday thanks to your recommendation. And it was excellent! The ant beef, a real highlight, great craft beer, the whole place is outstanding.
Pâte chaud was also really good, we also had some delicious pangasius soup with flowers for lunch.
Being in HCMC for only two days really widened our food horizon, the whole city is like a giant food tour 😅 Thank you for showing these special places! And probs for your video shooting skills.
So Van, visiting vietnam next year in January!! This is amazing! Going to add to my list of things!
Only thing I wish, is if you could drop thr locations in the description with google maps, it is going to be easier for me to locate when I'm in ho chi Minh ❤
Nice to see you back! …or maybe I haven’t been keeping up😅
I live in southwest Missouri a few miles from Carthage Mo we have every August Vietnamese Celebration It deals with when the Vietnamese people came to America back in the 70s I always love the celebration and the food is delicious A beautiful People with such a rich history
Thank you for that very interesting video. I hated my to days in district 1, but now I want to visit the places you showed before living Vietnam!
Gurl I am so addicted to paté chaud they are the best yaaaaaaassssss Need to get there asap okay 👍🏼
Its a vent. You dont find them on residential buildings but theyre usually on commercial buildings with businesses that produce a lot of heat like a bakery or restaurant. Hot air rises, hits the vent, spins it and in turn draws air out of the building
Fab vid . Thank you . 🇻🇳🇬🇧
Great video, Van! Thanks. Always enjoy your tours throughout Vietnam. A beautiful country! BTW, the "spinning thing" is an air vent, specifically a "whirlybird cylindrical dome" that spins in the wind, creating a vacuum which extracts warm air from the roof cavity usually above a shop or house roof. Whirlybirds are popular because they're cheap, easy to install, and require little to no maintenance once installed. They DO require a breeze of some sort to actually spin as they have no power of their own to spin them. It is also called a turbine rooftop cylinder.
Oh nice! Thank you so much for letting me know 🤗
Yup basically it keeps a unit/building cooler on a hot humid day
I was googling for a nearby cafe and stumbled upon 14 Tôn Thất Đạm. Such an nostalgic location to walk in and trying to search for the cafe and feeling scared of getting robbed.
And also had a free show watching some photography sessions for adult magazine or so 😂😅
Good you see you back!! Fantastic video!! 😊😊 Hey, with Tet coming up, would it be possible to get some tips on what to do while one visits? I think you do a wonderful job of sharing Vietnam with your Western viewers, and this would help anyone going this year. Thank you!!
Sure!! Of course 😊
Dear Van, I commend you for showing us around off the touristy and well trodden locations. I am finding out more and more of vietnamese city life and liking it a lot~!! Excellent job~~!!
Yay! Yay! So glad to hear that you had great experience! Thank you!!!
@@WhatThePho One thing I hope in the future is for you to appear in Sonny Side's Best Ever Food Review Show episode in Vietnam... as he is based in Vietnam. If that ever happens, it would definitely help your channel grow even bigger and reach broader audience~!
This was by far the best video of yours, and I just love the apartment cafe culture of the city, it's so unique. We don't find that in India.
Could you also consider doing a food tour of some famous vegetarian places?
Hi , it's good video. I live in Sai Gon more than 30 yrs but did not know those place. Well, this should be the guideline for me when my friend come to Sai Gon. Thanks for your recommendation. Very helpful
Glad that I found this vids , wanna come back to hcmc again now
This is great! Heading to vietnam soon so I might check out some of these. It'd be helpful if you dropped the locations in fhe description.
Your travel vlog takes me to places I've only dreamed of visiting. Your enthusiasm for exploration is truly remarkable! By the way, have you checked out the new v4 Bento Bag and the Ikigai Backpack from NomadLane? They seem like they'd compliment your travel style perfectly.
I returned from Vietnam 3wks ago and miss it alot, the food is top notch, wish I saw this video but will keep these places in mind the next time i go back which is mid next year. Also you are so gorgeous.
You got a new subscriber, video was very well edited and showed a wonderful side of VN. I will take my kids back one day.
Those spinning things are vents for passive cooling. Hot air is drawn out from the inside space.
As a Saigonese I can say for sure that no locals spend 150k vnd for breakfast, let alone eating hu tieu de kho (first time hearing about this)
There are local super rich and “local” expat.
What is hủ tiếu dê kho ? 🥹🥹🥹 first time I heard it , but what 150k for breakfast? Really? Locals not spend that much
This is my third week of vacation in VietNam. I live in the Dam Sen Park area. If you spend about $10 bucks for breakfast in the morning it would burst your stomach. Period!! The cuisine in Dam Sen Park area is dirt cheap and super delicious!!!❤️❤️👍👌
i would spend 150k for brekky ❤was born and still holding the card of Saigonese. Kudos to the chanel owner who is putting lots of efforts to create a great selection of dishes in HCM and unique options. Meanwhile, there are way too much similar contents including the same old classic dishes com tam, pho, banh mi. Why not open up and celebrate the food rather than unnecessary criticism 🎉
@@ltstones2826 no she surely made a great video highlighting hidden gems in saigon. I would try out these places if I want something new. The title is just misleading and doesn’t represent correctly what a typical local would eat. Also based on your reply i’m sure you don’t spend 150k for breakfast on a daily basis either
This was well done.
Cool video ❤
Thanks!
The spinning thing is normally put on a roof to pull the heat out of an attic. It's a type of vent.
You had me at Uncle Roger! Haiiiiyaaa! After seeing that, I clicked subscribe and hit the bell. I am in for the long run.
That "spinning thingy" you mentioned is the Spinning chimney cowls. Designed to improve the draft of your chimney by creating a vacuum effect that draws air up and out of the chimney.
Good job!
I saw a video of a Hoi An old town walk through. There was a group wearing What The Pho shirts.
