OMG! chicken&rice! chicken&rice! chicken&rice! chicken&rice! chicken&rice! 😍😍😍 drooling right now

[@nickandhelmi]

Yummm😋😋

[@g.e.889]

You would have to so many videos to cover all the main places in Parramatta.

[@nickandhelmi]

Yup i guess this will be series 😆

[@larrymasif5851]

Yay! Nick & Helmie went to Parra!

[@nickandhelmi]

Thanks Larry 🙌🏻😊

[@FoodandFootprints]

Temasek already looked good from being located down an alley. Sounds like Helmi knows her spots!

[@nickandhelmi]

Yes she does haha 😂

[@chingly7994]

Need to try the chicken laksa there

[@roscalub8183]

Yes, Laksa at Temasek next time you visit

[@nickandhelmi]

@@chingly7994 agree😄 i suggested laksa but nick wanted nasi lemak lol😆

[@nickandhelmi]

@@roscalub8183 yesss, agree🙂

[@RudyVisuals]

Omg the chicken rice and nasi lemak...my mouth is literally watering over my keyboard...

[@nickandhelmi]

Yesss😉😉

[@TravelInteresante]

Rice is king! You know we didn't know the actual translation for Lemak before, glad we finally know!

[@bearsandbutters]

LOLOL!! Poor Helmi couldn't find Parramatta Square.. "Where the hell is it?" HAHAHAHA!!! Yes, we hope you check the area out another day. Butters loves how "transportation" friendly Sydney is in general, with all the trains, and buses!!

[@natureshare4006]

wow, so yummy food, great job!

[@eucalyptus3616]

Dear Nick and Helmi, I love Pho, especially Pho Tai. Our favorite pho are from Pho An (Bankstown). Pho pasteur was my Father s favorite in sydney until we discovered Pho An 😁.

[@nickandhelmi]

Our fave is Pho An in Bankstown too!!

[@FoodandFootprints]

So true! The nasi is the star of the nasi lemak. Sounds like it is nice and lemaky!

[@nickandhelmi]

Haha yea

[@KimchiAndBeansVideos]

Early dessert is always a plus. Beans on dessert would probably be an acquired taste for us since we're so use to savory beans. The Pho looks so good though. Add all the onions.

[@sabahcharif920]

I love your videos so much!!!!

[@nickandhelmi]

Thank you Sabah🥺❤

[@MikkiShihTzu]

Love the meatball beef pho! Yes separate the beef is a good idea!!

[@raywan22]

Damn this is kinda crazy. I was eating at temasek that day (sitting outside) and I saw you guys shooting this video while I was eating. Now YT is recommending me this video. Guess I shall sub - good vid 👌

[@nickandhelmi]

Hahaha 🤣! Thanks ray

[@irena-talita]

[@nickandhelmi]

Ohh hello Mike 😁 thanks for watching!!

[@jeansanara2911]

Beautiful place enjoy watching your video stay connected

[@PuriandSue]

Love the decor in Mëraki Merchants. Oooo that Sultan's Jaffle looks delicious, looks perfect for breakfast. Awh man, did you say Hainanese chicken rice? Salivating, haven't have it for some time now. Look at that shiney coating on the chicken rice....~~~ Come back to Malaysia/Singapore for your chicken rice Nick~~~ 😆

[@NinisCooking]

Ooh, the skin of the chicken looks really shinning. I can see how delicious it is 😍

[@PogiboyProductions]

Helmi's hair 👍 Sultan's Jaffle looks yum, need to try it!

[@TwoHungryDiners]

Jaffle with sucuk 😍😍 Love the look and the sound of it! Cheesy jaffle is always a good jaffle 👍🏻

[@nickandhelmi]

Yesss😋

[@Yasin_Affandi]

Always good to see nasi lemak in cities outside Malaysia.

[@nickandhelmi]

Can't go wrong with nasi lemak😋

[@Yasin_Affandi]

@@nickandhelmi 😁🇲🇾😁

[@PeterandYen]

Been saving this for when I am eating dinner wooo hoo so pumped. That breakfast toasted sandwich looks the bomb wooo the sausage looks like it has a lot of flavour and you are right helmi must have cheeese! Nick you going hard with the classics, chicken rice and nasi lemak can't go wrong with that. Love the glistening sheen on the chicken. If I could only choose one thing from this entire video... PHO!

[@nickandhelmi]

Hahaha pho for life 🍜

[@LifetimeTravelmates]

the jaffle looks like some kind of chorizo sandwitch in Spain! nice!

[@nickandhelmi]

Exactly like chorizo sandwich! So nice😋

[@FoodandFootprints]

Sucuk has so much flavor! 🤤

[@nickandhelmi]

Yessss🤤🤤

[@FoodandFootprints]

Helmi doesn’t play when it comes to the 🌶🌶🌶

[@TMS9322]

Love you guys! I'm in Parramatta some of my favs are Holy Basil, Destination roll at Church st make the best bread rolls, 317, Thai LaOng n Thai Riffic ❤

[@nickandhelmi]

Thank youuu🥰🙌🏻 due for another episode soon hehehe

[@HangryByNature]

saucy jaffle with sujuk lollll "because I love sausage" hahahaha Helmi!! Oooooo hawker centre hainan chicken is the best. This one looks really well cooked. So true the chilli and sauce makes it really good. "a lot of freakin food" ahaha. 3 colour dessert is da bomb! Helmi you make Pho like how i do, it's so yummy like that. Parramatta sounds like an up and coming place, so much construction going on.

[@nickandhelmi]

Hahaha🤣🤣

[@KimchiAndBeansVideos]

That's a beautiful toast. Yes to the cheese! 🧀 Nick, you are missing out. 😂 Ufff, that chicken rice looks so juicy. Chickeny hahaa

[@mariaandbryan]

Helmi cut her hair!!! Looking cute, cute, cute!

[@RudyVisuals]

13:20 ahh man that looks like a nice hug in a bowl right there 😍

[@mariaandbryan]

We would love to get some pho. That is a great tip Nick to not get the meat overcooked. Loooove onions here too.

[@TravelInteresante]

Turkish sucuk for breakfast? This gets the Gokce seal of approval of course! 😉 Lol, practice makes perfect, can't wait to come back to Sydney for Helmi's Turkish Kitchen 😃

[@NinisCooking]

hehe, we're spicy lovers! 🔥 not spicy not good! 😋

[@TwoHungryDiners]

Oh yes... nasi lemak and chicken rice, very classic Malaysian & Singaporean dishes 😍 Same as Nick, we love wet version of beef rendang, Indo style 👍🏻😃

[@ChandySaoStreeteats]

Some amazing spots to get food paramatta. My favorite was the chicken rice. Looked delicious!!

[@nickandhelmi]

Thanks Chandy🥰

[@aarondraper1818]

Helmi likes her chillies in the Pho just like I do🥰😋

[@nickandhelmi]

Yesss🥰

[@vandos11]

yes Helmi we love your hair style

[@nickandhelmi]

Thank you so much 🥰

[@tlai168]

Brings back memories of when I was there years ago

[@nickandhelmi]

Aww 🙌🏻🙌🏻

[@mariaandbryan]

Love sucuk! We have just tried something called Kumru and it is a freaking delicious sandwich made with sucuk and it is to die for. The main difference between sucuk and chorizo is that one is pork and the other one isnt. You don't like olives??? hahaha Lieles doesn't like olives either. I'll eat them all, I can eat olives every day, all day!

[@texasgrubbin5538]

All the food looks so delicious😊

[@nickandhelmi]

Awww how are you marissa☺

[@MikkiShihTzu]

Omg that hianan chicken! So gooddd

[@nickandhelmi]

Comfort food 😊

[@TwoHungryDiners]

Haha I am the same as Helmi of how I eat pho. Add cut chilli, beansprout, basil, a bit of sauce, basically anything provided on the table for free I will add them to my bowl of pho 🤣🤣

[@PuriandSue]

Dessert first, Puri agrees with Helmi. That looks so yummy! Omg that Pho~~~ I miss having Pho! I'm with Nick on semi-cooked beef. Oh yeah Helmi, throw in those chillis, let it float and burn Nick with those spice haha!!

[@nickandhelmi]

Loll 🤣🤣

[@mariaandbryan]

Sorry guys it took us longer to watch this awesome video, we will be stationed for the next couple of weeks so we will fight for our first view spot! 😊🤣

[@TravelInteresante]

Good pro tip on the beef Nick, I'll have to start doing that going forward... between that and the beef rendang I know you're not steering us wrong (we prefer it your way too!). There's also certain dishes we never share too... some food is too damn delicious!

[@PogiboyProductions]

Nasi Lemak!! I want it!

[@Top.Mallorca]

The food looks yummy! Full watch and like from Palma de Mallorca

[@juliuslean9667]

Chow

[@jurrassitol15]

Fave Japanese place is Kanzo on George Street...there are stacks and stacks of places to eat in parra...church street has the vast majority of the restaurants. Parra square is definitely a lot more upmarket food wise but definitely happy that Rivareno gelato opened there!!

[@mickker841]

It is the best Japanese in Parramatta.

[@nickandhelmi]

We walked pass Kanzo & ppl queueing 👀 so got to try that for sure :)

[@gunnertravelandeventchanne5034]

i also love Chicken rice, especially during my first year in Singapore, looks like Indonesian nasi tim

[@TravelInteresante]

Always appreciate a spot that doesn't skimp on portion... can tell how chickeny that chicken is... so, Nick, you would say it tastes like chicken? 😂 Would love to try it at the Singapore hawker stalls!

[@PogiboyProductions]

Oh yes Pho!! LOL.. definitely need your own bowls

[@teresafan38]

Try these places when you visit Parramatta next - Kanzo Sushi, Holy Basil, Butter :)

[@nickandhelmi]

We walked pass Kanzo and saw a long queue during lunch, so keen to try next, thanks Teresa 🙌🏻 Holy Basil & Butter are def yes, we tried them in other branch yummm🤤

[@bearsandbutters]

We know it wouldn't be a complete day without Helmi's dessert!! The Che Ba Mau was really unique looking, and you guys have so many amazing flavor profiles from the Asian countries nearby!! Love that coconut was the predominant flavor! We can understand not wanting the meat overcooked with the pho Nick!! We LOVE Hoisin sauce in our pho too!! Helmi's Pho looked great too!!She went nuts with the chili and sauce!! Helmi must like her soups really SOUPER spicy LOLOL! Great video guys and thanks for taking us with you!! Love you to the moon!! 💖😘🥰🌛

[@FoodandFootprints]

Yesss nasi lemak! 🇲🇾🇲🇾

[@nickandhelmi]

Nasi lemak for life 🙌🏻

[@MikkiShihTzu]

Just had nasi lemak last night! It was so good! We had $28usd for 2 nasi lemak in chicago

[@nickandhelmi]

Kind of pricey hey 😅 similar like here too

[@rifkitchenaustralia8658]

You just made me wanna eat nasi lamak after I'm just full from my sate Padang 😅 Thanks so much for fun and informative video.

[@nickandhelmi]

Gosh i want sate padang!!

[@mariaandbryan]

Yes, it is Helmi's fault for getting dessert hahaha

[@MikkiShihTzu]

Nice haircut helmi!!! Nick needs the same haircut!

[@nickandhelmi]

Hahaha🤭🤭

[@postiescott69]

Last month I discovered those restaurants on Church St near Pho Pasteur. l’m going to try them all😁 We’ve eaten at 2 so far..

[@nickandhelmi]

Hehehe we have so many places that are yet to try too!😄

[@bearsandbutters]

Hey Nick and Helmi!! So great to see you, and love that you're in Parramatta today! Butters stayed with friends in Parramatta before when she was in Australia back in 1999/2000. Helmi.. your hair looks so nice! OMG... That Sultan's Jaffo looked so delicious.. It's like a Pizza pocket. Temasek looked so cool, and the nasi lemak looked bomb and so did that chicken rice!! YUM!!

[@benjaminstevens4568]

Love that Pho! I probably have more Chilli....

[@nickandhelmi]

Damnnn more chilli 💥🙌🏻

[@LifetimeTravelmates]

haha Nick, if the beef gets overcooked in the Pho it means you are not eating fast enough! 😉😉

[@nickandhelmi]

Busy recording it for video 😂

[@TravelInteresante]

Great haircut Helmi, short hair don't care! ;)

[@courtneynowland2771]

Mikazuki in parramatta has the best ramen. Soo good 🍜😍

[@nickandhelmi]

Thanks so much courtney🙌🏻 adding it to the list to try🙂

[@arzhiecylcia1811]

Hi... Greetings from Singapore 😍😎

[@nickandhelmi]

Hello 🙌🏻☺ thanks so much for watching! Hope we can visit SG soon 🥺

[@freddykhi]

Great video guys. My fav spot in Parra is Sun Ming BBQ Restaurant just a few doors down from Pho Pasteur. Having a quick meal at Sun Ming always brings back memories of Hong Kong.

[@nickandhelmi]

Oh yes Sun Ming is definitely must be featured next🙌🏻 love their BBQ meats

[@MuzzSader]

Was wondering whether Sun Ming was still there. I used to live around the corner & we used to eat there almost once week about 16 years ago! Love that place!

[@nickandhelmi]

@@MuzzSader we can confirm it's still standing strong 💪🏻 we walked pass it during filming & busy as normal hehe

[@Flutterbyby]

I love Vietnamese eateries that offer the the coconut and pandan dessert drink. With pho, I like the bean sprouts cooked first if possible, the beef also love cooked, so I shake it out to make sure its even as the temperature of the soup drops quickly 😁 truly personal preference. Big win if there is Lots of mint. Mmmmm.

[@nickandhelmi]

That's the beauty of having pho, no right and wrong just customise based on personal preference😊

[@tweety2048]

Alpha Sushi deserves a shout out! Do not sleep on this restaurant, good value and amazing food. And large sushi food for cheap!

[@juliuslean9667]

Don't think you can sleep there anyway. Food only no accommodation.

[@twillij29]

@@juliuslean9667 Not sure if you're being serious or...?

[@nickandhelmi]

Hahaha we love sushi, might sneak to sleep in there 🤣 thanks for the recommendation! We'll try it😁

[@tweety2048]

@@nickandhelmi Yayy, glad u wanna check it out! It's a nice and quaint spot that is totally underrated in parra. I mean if you guys all wanna sleep knock urself out haha. I wouldn't mind sleeping in sushi heaven tbh

[@kuokxiangtey2894]

Semoga di permudahkan urusan you all tengah pergi vacition sydney

[@markyousef4468]

Great video! I'll definitely try the sujok jaffle. Go to Swanky Noodles which is just up the road from Pho Pasteur. Highly recommend the XiBo style extra wide spicy noodles, BBQ lamb skewers and pea shoots. BL burgers make the best burgers and the laksa at Temasek is really good.

[@nickandhelmi]

Thanks Mark :) - definitely noting those down!

[@mickker841]

Temasek is the best. Holy Basil is good also. Worth checking out.

[@nickandhelmi]

Yes Holy Basil🙌🏻 normally we go to City or Canley Heights one 🤤

[@mickker841]

@@nickandhelmi there is always so many people at Holy Basil Canley Heights . 12 Spices at Canley Heights (West) is my favourite Thai in this area

[@NinisCooking]

long or short hair you're already cute 😋 chorizo, olive, and cheese! it sounds yummy 🤤

[@roscalub8183]

Wondering where your favourite pho is? We've tried a lot of places including Pho Pasteur and even drove all the way to An at Bankstown, but keep going back to Tan Viet. We're still on the search for other restaurants to try, though. And oh, Nick, where did you say you like HCR the most again? Would like to go try that, too.

[@nickandhelmi]

Wow Ros, we actually never try pho at Tan Viet😲 We always have the crispy chicken with dry noodle at Tan Viet haha😆 For pho we love An restaurant (order the meatballs) in Bankstown & Pho Tau Bay in Cabramatta. For HCR - Kopitiam Cafe in Ultimo - the best so far and only available weekend🥺

[@roscalub8183]

@@nickandhelmi I'm actually also a crispy chicken girl at Tan Viet 🤗, but husband and teenage son are pho-addicts. Will definitely give Kopitiam a go.

[@cherryripe1539]

Last Saturday I had pho in Pasteur at Haymarket . I ordered a Large size combination pho , I was so disappointed when my pho arrived. With so little noodle , one beef ball cut in half , one small of tendon, one small strip of tripe , two thinly slices of feef and beef brisket . Half way through my noodle, I overheard the lady sit at the table next to us complaints to the waiter about her order so small too .

[@nickandhelmi]

Yep I don't recommend Pasteur in Haymarket. I had bad experiences too and never go back there :( But Parramatta one is okay. I don't know why Parramatta's one tastes better with decent size and somewhat feel cleaner 😆

[@chrissyoz2496]

Pho Pasteur Parra is our go to Viet resto. Always good! 💕🥂

[@nickandhelmi]

Yeayyy😋

[@KimchiAndBeansVideos]

Nothing better than rice cooked in coconut. Those are some beautiful dishes.

[@chrispbacon5942]

You two should try some South eastern European food. Zeko's in seven hills. Or fabrika in Canley vale

[@deetee6796]

I second that with Fabrika 👌

[@jjsjjs93]

Zeko comes up as "Mediterranean" ?

[@nickandhelmi]

Thanks Chris 🙂🥰 we havent eat much eastern European food actually so thanks for recommendation 🙌🏻

[@Lena-zr6ce]

Helmi, I agree with your Pho style 😊 You guys need to check out the Swanky Noodle restaurant, which is further down from the Pho place. It has some delicious beef noodles, dumplings and beef hotpot. Helmi, I'm suprised you didn't go to Bay Vista for dessert (that would be your dessert dreamland). Also, checkout John Belvederes for some great burgers.

[@nickandhelmi]

Ohh Swanky noodle looks good! Ok got to try that in next episode, thanks Lena😁 I knoww right I actually wanted to go Bay Vista but we were so full 😭 Guess what we never try John Belvederes yet! I tried BL burgers before👍🏻

[@PuriandSue]

Fatty rice goodness 😋 I like how they have acar in there too, not conventional, but I like it with Nasi Lemak 😄

[@CB-yr4hq]

Woah I never knew Pho Pasteur was in Parramatta. I only knew it was in the city ❤😯

[@nickandhelmi]

Yes! Parramatta one is so much better than City😄

[@DoURSVP]

They have been here for more than 20 years . Same decor and tables chairs 🪑👌

[@roscalub8183]

Btw, Helmi, have you tried Holy Basil's fried ice cream? Maybe something to get next time you're at Parramatta.

[@nickandhelmi]

Yesss🥰 we always go to Holy Basil in City or Canley Heights and always got the fried ice cream 🤭

[@mariaandbryan]

We can't share pho with Helmi then hahaha we will die with all that spice hahahaha Two plates of pho please! 😊

What do you mean??? I love your short hair Helmi! You're so cute! 😍
