Hai Phong Locals Told Us We Had To Try This! 🇻🇳 Vietnam

Come join us on a street food hunt here in Hai Phong, Northern Vietnam. This city has some seriously interesting foods we knew we had to try.
We headed to a super popular spot first for some banh da Cua - a crab seafood noodle dish with thick red noodles. These set us back 30k VND each and were absolutely delicious.
Then we needed something sweet so went on a mission to find Dua Dam & Kem Bo Dua. So many local people here in Hai Phong recommended we try these desserts so we found a little stall on a super busy street and ordered one of each for 30k VND.
Dua Dam is a coconut based dessert & Kem Bo Dua is both avocado and coconut! These are seriously delicious honestly such a surprise. Oh and we also grabbed a pennywort juice for 15k VND to end the night! Yeah lots of strange things to have in your stomach all at once...

Loved this street food video. Seafood noodle soup with the fried bread looked amazing. All life going on around you. Sweet treats, and that pup 🐶 the best of everything. So lovely to watch 😊

[@EllisWR]

It was so good Carol, and like you say so much going on around you while eating on the street!

[@roywinkley2184]

Excellent place to sit & have those drinks at the end. Can’t believe all the stuff that goes in. Must be good though by the looks of it

[@thorts]

Really enjoying these Vietnam videos. I've definitely saved this city to my list! Seems very different and interesting with funny and nice people 😊

I am Vietnamese and I have never ever came across this awesome dish in the States ( banh da Cua ) jealous of you both now. The last greenish drink you had , she said it has a cooling effect on your body.

[@EllisWR]

Ah wow vietnamese food is so so good. Banh da Cua is fantastic. Thanks for translating we had no idea!

[@Lovingbeingbackinthailand]

Amazing food review of hai phong, very rarely visited by foreign tourist

[@EllisWR]

Thanks so much, yeah nobody visits I don't know why it's so much fun 🇻🇳

[@thiduong2762]

That green juice is called Nước Rau Má (pennywort juice). Can be found on most Vietnamese restaurant menus. Very healthy and refreshing with a mild taste. Not strong like wheatgrass.

[@EllisWR]

Thanks for explaining! It was healthy and refreshing

[@AungMoeWin]

That corgi is so cute and playful.

[@EllisWR]

It was so cute!

[@roganyeoh6842]

Thanks to this video, I intentionally came to Hai Phong. Tried the Banh Da Cua at the stall you visited, it was amazing. Thank you!

[@EllisWR]

thanks im glad you enjoyed!!

[@garethpotter]

I really must stop watching your videos when I’m feeling hungry! I’ve half a mind to hop on a bus to Heathrow and get on the next plane to Hanoi…

[@EllisWR]

Hahah you wouldn't regret it Gareth vietnamese food is so bloody good 🇻🇳

[@garethpotter]

Did you meet up with Gary last night? I gleaned from his live stream that you’re back in Bangkok by now.

[@EllisWR]

@@garethpotter Had a shocking arrival to Bangkok yesterday was supposed to meet up but couldn't make it, were gonna head out together this week 🇹🇭

[@peanutsondonuts6533]

Been watching your Vietnam videos, not in any particular order. Your attempts to communicate with locals is INSPIRING.

[@sagenodes]

The soup noodles look amazing, and you guys are really soaking up the culture. Love it!

They were so good the food in Vietnam is ridiculous! Cheers for watching!

Enjoy it's such a fun place! 🇻🇳

When the locals pack a place like that I would say its very very nice food 👌 😋

[@EllisWR]

That's how you know it's a top spot!

[@paulhongwu]

You are the man! You can handle chopsticks like the pro, durian and baluts. Lol!

[@EllisWR]

Yep I love it

[@doodahgurlie]

I was salivating when you ate the dessert...that is something I KNOW I will love without every having tried just based on the ingredients I saw going in. It's a crime they get that and we get Starbucks. So unfair! That corgi was absolutely adorable and so friendly. I would have distracted the kids with a misdirection, picked her up and ran away. LOL!

[@EllisWR]

Hahah where are you watching from your my favourite commenter ❤️🇻🇳 Starbucks is terrible, I wish we stole the corgi too

24:03 Pennywort has a mixture of bitter and sweet tastes. The herb is helpful in nurturing the liver and spleen, detoxifying, and the natural cooling effect of pennywort helps calm down our body. Pennywort is traditionally consumed as a healthy drink, or tonic and antiseptic medicine for diarrhea, blood vomiting, dysentery, scars, and rashes.

[@EllisWR]

Super interesting thanks for explaining!

[@haduong96353a]

23:40 nước rau má. rau má (veggie má) is good for our livers, cooling the body.

[@EllisWR]

Ahhh thanks for explaining 🙏🙏

If you live in VN 5 years, I bet you will speak Vietnamese very good.

[@EllisWR]

Would be great give me 1 full year

[@Lovingbeingbackinthailand]

I think the biggest worry where you are now is crossing the road. I have been to India and many other places and this has to be up at the top for risk crossing the road. just image if you was drunk and trying to cross the road what a nightmare. keep safe x

[@EllisWR]

I think your right it's a madness, drunk would be a disaster

[@paulhongwu]

You put too much chilli oil sauce. Lol!

Never too much

its non of my business but how are you finding this trip, I dont know much about YT but is it your content that is enabling you to fund this trip? or did you win the lottery lol. tell me to mind my know beeswax if you like lol

[@EllisWR]

Hahah I wish the videos would fund the trip, maybe if the channel grows it will start to pay for things but right now Michael we are just travelling from our savings, I've worked as a machinist since I was 16

[@Lovingbeingbackinthailand]

@@EllisWR The way you talk about food as that's a big part of your content I thought you might be a chef. With your skills I'm surprised you didn't buy a cheap knock about for your trip. That would be different to 99% of all the other travellers.

[@EllisWR]

@@Lovingbeingbackinthailand No I'll be honest Im just learning as I explore and eat! We've always had a passion for local food etc. Sounds a top idea maybe we should have a look

[@Lovingbeingbackinthailand]

@@EllisWR Have you seen vlog from world of oni? he left the usa at the start of 2023 with no followers and now 10 weeks on he has almost 27k subs. I think the main reason his doing so well is the music and sound bites he uses. plus his not engaging in any of the usual night life and woman chasing which is nice to see. Your vlogs are better in my mind as you give great detail about the food your eating and you really are getting stuck in with the local grub.

[@EllisWR]

@@Lovingbeingbackinthailand I've seen yeah not really my cup of tea to be honest we like to really explore the places everybody overlooks!

Vietnamese food could be more appealing if they practiced food safety and sanitation. The Vietnamese got no idea to keep their food stall free of garbage. Sad.
