"Everyone in this world is dealt a different hand - some better, some worse than others - but what's more important is how you play that hand. That is what builds character. And with great character comes great reward." -Christine Ha
first
You continue to inspire me and make me cry :)
Such a inspirational ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I agree
Motivated more beyond words
Gordon Ramsay has stated, several times, that Christine Ha was the best chef contestant that was ever on the MasterChef show.
Gordon tells chefs to use Taste as their primary sense. Christine actually listens, because she only has taste
.
@@electrictroy2010she uses hear ears, touch, smell, taste much more than normal.
It's official. A literal blind person can cook better than me .
Luca is the Master chef GOAT!
@@hellowill stop dickriding
She's undoubtedly the person that every competitor likes and respects.
The way her final opponent also hugged her was very wholesome.
The look on his face was great, of course he might be disappointed for losing.
But he was noticeably happy for her.
As would everyone be!
Na I think there was a female named becky think she made it to the top 4 you can tell with her face expressions she was hating on Christine
@@deeaye2183she just hates losing and w Christine always being at the top yeahhh
Maybe not the guy who gave her a live crab to break down, lol
Mm
What I love about Christine is that even though she was disabled. She was still treated the same as the others. She had to work hard as the others maybe even harder and still prevailed. So it's a inspiration to everyone.
Not maybe harder, definitely harder. She literally has an handicap. The thing is that she was very familiar with hard work.
@@oliviertoublanc9146 Even worse is when one of the contestants, who got an advantage from winning a team challenge, actually tried to sabotaged her by giving her a live crab instead of a canned crab. Her hands and fingers got injured many times from being snapped by the crab's claws. Too bad for him, Christine won that round.
@@ShadowMoon878 I mean it probably would make the world hate him more if he take it easy on her because her disability. If he did it because he actually thinks she's a threat, then that's a compliment
@@ShadowMoon878that crab was definitely fresh
i would say she work a whole lot harder than the rest of them
Christine Ha is an amazing young lady, despite her disability. Even more amazing is that she opened her own restaurant that has become highly successful.
She is an amazing person!
Did she really own a restaurant?I watch her video that she didn't open any restaurant..because yah.. lacking communication..and hard to handle a restaurant with her disability
@@Calpis16 she has 2 very successful restaurants in Texas call The Blind Goat and Xin Chao.
@@Calpis16 you're lacking a bit of research.
@@devinnguyen9038 Yeppp and won a James Beard Award for The Blind Goat! :)
I’m a trained chef and if I ever COMPLETELY go blind (I’m legally blind I wear glasses and I have astigmatism) this woman makes me believe I could MOST DEFINITELY continue cooking
More power to you. I’m pretty sure in the event you lose your sight completely you will still rock your dishes fabulously. ✨💕
Of course you could. You can do things you never dreamed of when presented with the challenge.
Yes but you must practice a lot
Keep living your dreams. Don’t stop.
Indeed, follow only your dreams and all the best to you❤
If Christine can cook and even win such a competition then I believe anything is achievable in this world. More power to her.
I’m just not stupid she’s just blind lol.
She's just blind....
Technically anything is possible. Unfortunately some of the more ambitious goals one can have require a foundation to already be there to realistically achieve them in the time one has on this Earth.
She is just chinese, & chinese.
She is a splitting image of her mother, more power to her ❤
*spitting
@@electrictroy2010*splitting
nope@@moonshineonsunflowers
Fun fact: its spitting image, and the term comes from an idiom from the 1850s, “the spit and image of his father”. This evolved to simply be “spitting image”
@@anothergamingchannel2656 in what possible context would the topic of spit and the image of their father would come up in 1850 💀
fighting with a loved one and never being able to apologize until its to late is heartbreaking...
Edit: now way gang 1.5k likes?? thx yall
uncle ben
@@Conorator got nothing on a real person
Don't let it happen to you - especially with your parents or kids. It'll eat you forever.
The last time I spoke to my father it was an argument over loaning me 50 bucks to get some supplies before leaving for basic training. The day after I graduated I was called to the commander's office and told he was in a coma with 72 hours or less. They had me on a flight within 4 hours. It was late when I arrived but I made it in time to hold his hand. An hour after I left I got the call that he had passed. I'm still hating myself to this day that the last words he heard from me couldn't be "I love you dad, I'll see you soon "
I just lost my grandmother this morning and I didnt get to meet her at all@@spicytrashpanda
Imagine being a child and having the maturity and presence of mind to tell your dying mom that it's okay to let go. Christine's story is so heart-wrenching yet inspirational at the same time. A part of me hopes that she doesn't catch her "white whale" until she is at the end of her years so that she always has a way to connect with the mom she lost.
It's easier as a kid to say let it go because of all the bickerings, I know I did
Winning master chef is hard enough. Doing it literally blind takes a WHOLE another level
Yes it is!!!‼️‼️
A whole another level of impossible
She is just chinese, & chinese.
I'm a mom of a 3 year old beautiful girl who is blind and to watch something like this gives you a great hope she will be ok and she would be able to do everything she wants. Amazing
With grace of almighty she will be fine! Just belive and catch her if she fall!!
God will bless her
God bless both of you
Your daughter will be great,for sure
Well operating vehicles could be a lil hard
The mere memory of her mom, has excelled her to success, now imagine having to work with so little, props to her.
She is just chinese, & chinese.

I absolutely loved Christine as a contestant, not because of her disability but because she was so focused, genuine and talented. She was a beautiful person on the show and I'm so happy she went on to such success. Her mum would have been proud of what she's accomplished and it's sad Christine did not learn how to cook from her
I'm crying watch this .... suddenly I remember my late mother's cooking
Same here 😭
Sorry for your losses
She is just chinese, & chinese.
Wow. I’m truly inspired by her aspiration to become a better cook. Not just for herself, but for her mom. Her story was truly heartbreaking and I can’t imagine how hard it was to lose a mother and then one of the most important senses a human has. Although it was very hard, I’m glad she stood up and didn’t let herself fall behind just because she was blind. What an amazing, beautiful woman.
She is just chinese, & chinese.
This is what it truly means to cook from the heart. She won not just because her senses were enhanced, but because she was cooking for her mother. That is so beautiful and heartwarming.
She is just chinese, & chinese.
it's actually unreal how skilled she is the amount of precision and practice required to cook like that without being able to see anything is insane
She is just chinese, & chinese.
They say when you lose one sense, the other ones increase to compensate. Christine is absolutely a shining example of this. So proud of everything she’s accomplished. And when she talked about the beef noodle soup she wanted to replicate, I get it! I want to replicate my Granny’s vegetable soup and I’ve never quite managed it, and I watched her cook it so many times as a child and teenager. And I’d love to replicate her coconut cake, but she never wrote it down for me despite me asking her to so many times.
She is just chinese, & chinese.
I'm very proud of her that she also is Vietnamese. And she insprired me a lot of
🇻🇳❤️
One thing I have noticed about Vietnamese, it looks like everyone is called Nguyen. Why so and what's the meaning of that name.
Tuấn Khanh Nguyễn, Christine Ha is an American born to Vietnamese immigrant parents.

Who else is litereally tearing up? Wowa. What a beautiful lesson of resolve, determination and resilience.
I wish lol; I’m literally bawling. What an inspirational woman she is!
She is just chinese, & chinese.
Christine's MUM has been with her the whole time, Congratulations Christine WELL DONE, you deserve to WIN 😊❤🙏
Mothers encouragements will always go a long way for us
She is just chinese, & chinese.
Hearing her story you just can't help but to believe that her Mom's hand is always there guiding her. ❤ One of my absolute favorite contestants, her resilience is inspiring.
She is just chinese, & chinese.
Cancer sucks...my mum lost to it when she was 46..here I am now 43..still remember before her last breathe...tears flows down from her
I remember Christine. She is truly an amazing person. She is the reason why Master Chef season 3 is my favourite season of the entire series. I hope she continues to be such a strong person.
So glad she won this master chef competition. So well deserved. Bless her always….
Yes yes yes Christine won. I'm so happy for her. AS the saying goes "It's not a disability it's a different ability".
It really doesn't matter how you sugarcoat it
wow being blind sure is an ability!
@@W0rldSix If only people could close their eyes
@@Cyril29aif only people could just donate limbs because surely its not a disability if you don't need them right?
@@EnhancedTrashBin Ya.. You totally missed the point. I am not mocking or even diminishing people with disabilities, I am simply calling out the foolishness of calling disabilities "different abilities". It rings hallow and disrespects the suffering of those who have challenges.
This got me emotional , and i dont cry almost never. She's the definition of a warrior
Christine is literally my inspiration in life, such a beautiful person
She is just chinese, & chinese.
Her mother is cooking thru her hands beautiful 🥰 this is amazing
She gives alot of people like me hope. This lady has a good heart you can see it. Love her videos.
This Woman is blind & was going against everyone else who could see clear as daylight. They doubted her. But end the end. She was the one that came out on top & earned Gordon’s Respect. She has set an example💙
She is just chinese, & chinese.
When I watched her making her finale dish the first time, I thought she must be crazy. While it no doubt tasted very good, it's also a popular dish in Vietnam that she must know will absolutely be destroyed in terms of presentation, considering she only lost her sight in her 20s. I didn't understand why she chose that particular dish for such an important occasion. When she said in this video she chose the dish because it reminded her of her mom, it all made sense. That was a tribute to her mom. She obviously wanted to win, but above all, she wanted to feel closer to her mom in one of the most important moments of her life.
I absolutely can not get over how stunning her mom was.
Ugh man the feels. No body cooks like mom.
Grandmaa
Disability is not inability. She is an inspiration, lovable and so humble ❤❤❤
I remember when my disease took my sight for several months. As a chef, it hurt me so much not being able to make toast on a pan. Didn’t know if the heat was going and kept burning myself. It was such a painful time and thinking about Christine and what she went through helped me conquer my fear of being in a kitchen again. Though I gained little at a time back, those months have actually helped me be a better cook and a better communicator! 🔥
She’s always been my favorite contestant and winner. She walked through the door for her audition with the cane and immediately was rooting for her to do well.
I’ve loved many Masterchef contestants but there have been few if any like Christine.
My too and love her story that she never give up n keep getting back up and say I can do t
It was so so amazing to meet you and Jon at the NFB National Convention the last time we were in Florida. I don’t think I had a chance to tell you then that like others have said, I’ve never wanted anyone to win more than you and Sean and I were so excited and thrilled for you! Huge congrats on all of your incredible success!
She went through so much until she felt worthy to compete in MasterChef. She is such a strong woman! ❤
The spirit she has to just keep going is what everyone wants to have. Massive respect to her 🫡👏🏻👏🏻
I remember this show as if it were yesterday. Her determination to not allow a disability stop her from achieving her dream is profound. At times when I see her struggle it made me cry, but she turned her tragedy into triumph is very inspiring. Knowing that she exist makes my life that much better. This show alone, not only made me respect Christine but also the judges for showing a different side of their humanity.
She made me cry . What ever she shared with us about her life, her mom, losing her … we can relate with it 💯
She’s by far my favorite master chef winner and I adore her so much
You'll only be shocked if you don't know a blind person. My MIL was blind since her teens and yet she cooked and baked for a family of 5. Up until a couple of years before she died, she used to cook Christmas dinner every year for the whole family.
How did she measure things?!
@@Liv-or5ci By touch, by feel, level of liquid in a glass or cup, using measuring spoons etc.
I love his reaction to her dish. It shows he cares :D. Especially her apple pie
I would've cried my eyes out for her too. What an amazing story and test of one's abilities
I’m Vietnamese and I immediately get so excited and nostalgic at the same time to see the fish that she cooks. I eat it a lot growing up and it’s pretty cool to see it as a meal to be served to the judges!! ^^
I remember two moments of Christine more than any other contestant. Her winning (because I cried), and the crab elimination challenge where she proved she was unstoppable.
I've lost my dad years back, he was a western chef and had never taught me cooking either. I used to joke with him that I can become a chef just like him.
He didn't want me to become as the job was so tough, you have to work rotated shifts, high temperature working environment and long hours of standing.
He adores me for my pass twenty years, and I didn't have his own personal receipe that I could learn to re make or duplicate his dish.
It was all too late and I'm starting to forget how the taste is and how he look like, it was just like yesterday when he prepares for my F and B class, all the necessary ingredients and seasonings which everyone was so envious abt how professional I am
I miss my dad, he was the best dad and the best chef, he's irreplaceable.
Gordon Ramsay convinced Chrisine Ha to relish the confidence that she had within herself. He changed her life forever.
I am not lying I swear , I had tears in my eyes. very heart touching …just wishing happiness for her.
The happiness of a person is not dependent on people, people just help awaken the feeling.
How are you doing today??
Going blind when you once had sight sucks so much. Had cataracts develop in my eyes and went blind for a week before getting the surgery I needed. Couldn't imagine 10 years of it.
Christine opened her new restaurant maybe 200 ft from our family home in Houston and we're thrilled to have her nearby! 💜
wow. just wow. she may lack vision, but she doesnt lack personality. she’s a chef, she’s an angel, shes an inspiration.
I don’t think I’ll ever forget how each time she kept surprising us all. And then to win the freakin thing. Wow. Amazing.
Very wholesome and I was emotional to see her win (in this video clip). Many congrats to her, especially overcoming so many obstacles.
Every time I see her, I am just getting stunned. Like my mind cannot cannot process the fact that she can cook THAT good while being freaking blind! How is it even possible? Simply unbelievable
"Inspirational" isn't a strong enough word. I fight my own inner demons and I watch her story when I need to snap myself out of it. If a lady who is BLIND can be a MasterChef, there are NO excuses for anyone else, IMO. Well done Chistine! You are a roll model.
It's nothing big and we all should start normalising the normality. Some don't see through their physical eyes but they are able and gifted to see the beauty. Such an inspiration. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Her resilience is so motivating! God bless her🙏
Ramsay is a incredible chef, and she is absolutely awesome brought me to tears knowing someone is blind but can cook and beat the odds, bless you young lady😊😊😊
I always say I've seen everything in this world good and bad but this lady had the courage and strength to put herself out there to do something she loves 👏👏👏👏more props to Christine Ha keep doing you
The guts and skill she has. Respect mam.
Wow! Congratulations Christine!
What an honor to have Ramsey say all these wonderful things about your dishes! This made me cry! Great job and I love how driven she is!❤
She's the definition of "you can do anything if you set your mind to it"
This video showing her dedication makes me cry
I feel so horrible for her and her mother. im so sorry.
She looks so much like her mom, both beautiful.
Balling my eyes out, wow so powerful❤️❤️
Way to go, Miss Christine! You truly are an inspiration, not just to me and the rest of the Disabled Community, but everybody! I hope I get to meet you one day, so I can tell you how much you inspire me, as a fellow member of the Disabled Community, but to also try your food, too 😊
This lady is incredible.. everyone has their own battles and she’s owning it. ❤❤❤
Can't hold back tears...congratulations...your mom is proud of you😭😭😭
What an inspiring story!😢 Kudos to her and all strength to her.❤
Right it ppl like her give me hope for the world
This woman is a true inspiration. She entered and won this competition despite her disability.
Her story brought tears of joy and happiness to me
It's ain't easy to win but we got no choice.
How are you doing
I want such determination in my life
Dont you fell sick of making excuses
Gotta learn from her mad respect
"Only through mistakes can there be discovery & progress"
We all need to learn from such a courageous woman..Congratulations
I'm a Chef , and in my opinion, she has more sense than a person who can see, she developed its senses of taste and smell, that's make her unique, most of all for her passion and dedication!
What a freaken G. Super impressed by her determination and inner strength.
Christine Ha. Inspiring, creative, tenacious. Her story proves that there is no reason in this world that anyone should be a victim.
This brought tears to my eyes.. Such an amazing story of strength and perseverance. I hope to be half as talented as her one day❤..
I love how even though she’s blind, she was never treated any differently from the other contestants.
Christine Ha is someone I can relate to. I lost my granddaddy this year and he was an amazing cook. Unfortunately, I never got the chance to learn his recipes. I always thought that I'd never be able to cook like the rest of my family. When I saw Christine and learned her story, I started thinking maybe I could.
If she, a blind woman, can overcome her struggles and surpass her wildest dreams, then why can't I do the same thing?
And now I'm on my way to do just that. If I could talk to her, I'd say thank you. She is one of my biggest inspirations.
I think it was because of her, I became a regular master chef watcher. She was such a joy to watch, and gain inspiration from. Wishing nothing but the best from her. Sadly tho, the guy she beat in the competition wound up committing suicide, sad to say. R.i.p Josh Marks.
Seriously? So sad. 😢
What an amazing woman she is! How proud her mom must be even if she is a angel!
what an inspiration!! I'm gonna watch the entire season 3 for her😭❤️
You never know the value of something until the memories are all you have left of it.
This is no ordinary blind lady,..
She's has her mother with her...
Always 😢...🙏😌
Am I the only one who thinks Christine's mom looks like her?
Christine's story is very inspiring. Love how Gordon reacted to her.
It's almost like they're related...
@@nangsanbhalangblah333lmao
But some children don't look like their mothers tho, like me, i don't look Even a bit like My mom.
i‘ve seen a lot of videos about her and about the reactions to her food, and she did blow every expections every time🤝🏽
What she lacks in vision makes up in determination.
She is an amazing blind woman, and a chef on top of that! Incredible!
Her eyes are gray they’re absolutely gorgeous though wow! Her strength and inner beauty is so inspiring❤️
This is absolutely beautiful 😍 & beyond inspirational!
WOW ... Nothing is Impossible as long as *You Believe in Yourself & You Don't Sell Yourself Short along the way* BRAVO & CONGRATS!!!!
Goes to show you whatever your wall is, its not to high you cant start climbing it or knocking it down altogether. Bravo Christine!!!
