JUMBO Curry Crab 🦀 Local Recommended CRAB Restaurant | Vietnamese SEAFOOD Feast

First before crab, we went for some NOODLES! One of the most underrated noodles in Vietnam. Mi Tron, an instant noodle tossed in a spicy, sweet sauce and served with a side broth of beef, seafood, and definitely some scallions.
Finally time for the crab feast as Phong Cua. This place is really unique as you get to go to the back and pick which crab you would like to have for your meal. We went with the cua thịt lợn, which I mistaking translated in my video. Grant and I decided to go with the Curry Crab and picked a few side dishes to go along with the main star of the meal. Clear why this place is called the crab room. With perfectly cooked crab coated in a delicious curry sauce. I think every way you order crab here will be a delicious feast. It makes it obvious why everybody had a few crabs on their table.
Of course you know I couldn't stop there, I had to get something sweet. I went for a type of che that I haven’t had since I lived in Hong Kong. The black sesame seed and sesame seed desert is a staple in Hong Kong and I am so happy I found a man doing a really delicious version here in Saigon. Just don’t be like me and wait too late in the day or he may just sell out.

Met up with my buddy Grant today to try out a seafood restaurant that he said is making some unreal crab, well, now I have to ask, what do yall think? Also sorry for the confusion. In my video, I said thịt meant grilled, but it actually means “meat” so sorry for the confusion. NEW VIDEOS EVERY MONDAY AND THURSDAY!! Connect with me! Website: mykindofeats.com/ Instagram: instagram.com/mykindofeats/ Facebook: facebook.com/mykindofeats/ Much love, Max

[@thanhtrinh9277]

And the "thịt" in "cua thịt" means "flesh", implies "muscular crab", not some kind of "skinny crab" 😄

[@techniqueprimitivelife8972]

[@brandonmoore2237]

Another awesome look at Vietnamese seafood! Haha, the way you shook your head after you tried the seafood patty at the first place made me laugh! And I can't get over how amazing the crab curry looks. The color of the crab and the curry are so vibrant! I can only imagine how incredible it must have been!

[@thovlogsamthucbonphuong7015]

Shrimp, crabs, cockles look delicious every dish. Especially the crab plate looks so attractive! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️👍👍👍👍

[@trangthuy9674]

Từ khi Max làm video kèm phụ đề. Mình chưa từng bỏ lỡ giây phút nào cạ. Review dễ thương dễ sợ

[@Kookingwithkimberly]

These videos with grant are so fun!! Hope to see some more now that you’re back home in viet nam!

[@kim-thuyhuynh4932]

Oooo Max, I wanted to "Grab some chilli curry Crab" too!! Nom, nom nom. So juicy & meaty. The sound of the pouring rain actually makes it very atmospheric. You're one lucky guy - getting the last bowl of black sesame Che..& keeping your white t-shirt clean. 😉 Fab video!

[@eugeniasyro7315]

Looks wonderful!

[@samnguyen6978]

Damn that crab dinner is INSANELY DELICIOUS! Yummmmmmy!

[@RichRizzy]

The seafood makes me miss Vietnam so much! Keep up with the videos ! 👍🏼🔥

[@Macoi24]

Thanks! Will do!

[@_TATHIENTHANH]

when you ate che i realized this place near my old school, and i just want to say thank you, i really love your videos

[@Macoi24]

Glad you like them!

[@tarofind010]

Just have a happiness with myself and food. Vietnamese food your channel look yummy all😋

[@quynhanhnguyen7017]

Lol, I know the title of your videos is "all about that 🦀". But I was so excited to when you say you will have the sesame and peanut paste dessert. It bring back so much happy memories for me eating that with my dad. You are absolutely right, it is very hard to find a place that served that kind of dessert now in Saigon. I was looking for it last year when I went back but no luck. You definitely should try it again to fully get the both flavors. Yummy and fun video as always.

[@joules000]

Watching U and your friend makes me so so hungry for Crabs. Yummy!!!!

[@dungdo3523]

My mouth is watery watching both of you eating that curry crabs!😋😋😋 yummy

[@Macoi24]

So good

[@RobertPeters4674]

Wow now that's a crab curry feast Max, and for only $16.22 in US dollars all I can say is WOW. Over here in the states something like that would be $50 to $100. Also send the rain this way were burning here in Colorado and California. Great video sir!

[@Macoi24]

[@chauminji8628]

Ive ate at phong cua couples times. The foods is great!!

I spent the day trying to find a legit way to return to Vietnam just so i can dip that crab in that curry sauce and then into does chilies (eventhough, my stomach will wimp out)! Man oh, oh man, oh man! Lawd knows i appreciate you and your videos.

[@indayroning9415]

[@mithunishanika8369]

You are so lucky!! That crab reminds me of Sri Lankan crab curry 🤩 and would love to try that black seasame dessert, I think that dessert was the perfect ending to this video! 👏

[@IconicBeliever]

omgosh.. if you’re getting better at speaking, understanding, AND reading vietnamese words than me?!?! NOOOooo.. I mean, YESSSS! I’m super duper proud that you’re learning the language! *high five!!! The part where you raised the noodles up and said, “Touch heaven,” was epic! Also, Mo butta, mo betta! AHHH and the bittermelon dish looked superb!!! Eat to your heart’s content for all of us who don’t have the stomach of steel like yours. 😬😬😬 You’re most definitely right about people who can eat spicy, because I can’t live without that capsaicin! Heck yeaaa we’re ALL fun!!! Tehehe

[@Macoi24]

[@peterwg725]

Love those crabs

[@JohnSoh]

Woaaa I've been there! It gets PACKED at night and is full of locals. Looks like you went to the first spot. They have a second location like 2 minutes away, it's that popular. Some say the second spot is almost as good but it def has a way nicer view.

[@cungmi133]

You guys are killing me man..lol

the black sesamese & peanut sweet dessert can easily be found in Chợ Lớn (typical chinese dessert) or you get the powder just pour hot water & there you go...njoy!
