My sister gave me a food tour

Initially I had booked a Hanoi food tour with a professional guide, but then my sister said she’d be a way better guide than anyone else. So I decided to let her show me her favorite foods to eat in Hanoi. Let’s see if I made the right decision cancelling the other tour 😄

Hi, I'm Uyen Ninh but please just call me Uyen!
I moved from Vietnam to Germany 3 years ago for studying. I make silly videos about how Germany looks like through the eyes of a Vietnamese - on my way to be your favourite Ausländer! :D

Yes and not exaggerated and ridiculous expressions of pleasure while eating, just two sisters enjoying the good food in authentic locations. Very simple and honest.

[@paulaburatto629]

I love how your sister's voice sounds like yours sometimes, depending on the tone she's using. I mean, I know family members usually have similar voices, but I still find it funny. In any case, super nice video, Uyen! Thank your sister for us, now I'm craving your food and I can't have it anywhere near here! Cheers from Brazil!

[@RaspBerryPies]

[@o3MTA3o]

"what makes you an expert" "I love food" Sounds legit.

[@rtmpgt]

The one thing I remember the most about my time in vietnam was the FOOD. Honestly, you can get so much good food in so many places. I spent about a week travelling through central Vietnam with my partner and my mother-in-law, and we ate so much good Central Vietnamese foods! My favourite would have to be Com Ga Hoi An! My favourite Dessert was Kem Bo~! Who knew Avocados could be a dessert!

[@uyenninh]

Exactly!!! 😆 german boyfriend was also shocked that there are diferent kinds of avocados than the “Hass” one you can get in Germany 😂

Bickering with bossy sister is extremely relatable. But I loved the shot of her taking you by the arm as y'all crossed the street! Protective of her lil sis. 😊

[@Will0398]

I live in California and in Orange County there’s a district called “Little Saigon” where a lot of Viet refugees settled after the war. EVERYTHING is in Vietnamese and it feels like you’re in Vietnam. And the food is SO amazing!!!

[@heythave]

Fresh spring rolls (nem noung and fresh shrimp) and young jackfruit salad at Brodard Chateau, pho (noodle soup, get the special where it has everything) and chai yor (fried spring rolls) at Pho 79. Silk Noodle Bar has very good filet mignon pho and they make their own noodles every day.

​@@KrisKk08you would think but we got some questionable spots we even recently had a Asian buffer close down to horrible hygiene and failed the health inspection on all levels.

1:08 "stick to the plan", oh I love your sister already 🤣 She belongs in Germany

[@Soulfood_Thao]

Dear Uyen, in Germany you can buy premade flourmix of banh cuon. There is a methode to make banh cuon in a pan. We make it like that all the time. Greetings from Frankfurt 👋

[@Viet_Nam_Ball]

But the skill of the person who makes them regularly really make a difference.

[@thaistick2412]

@@Viet_Nam_Balljust pratice, eventually it will come close 😉

[@doodahgurlie]

The easiest way is to find the fresh sheets used for making noodles. They sell them in packages in the refrigerator sections in the US> My SIL uses the sheets to make quick banh cuon and it works perfectly. Way easier than dealing with the flour mixture.

[@tranchris9178]

I have been living in Hanoi for 26 years and I must say, your sister have an excellent taste and a great food tour. All the places that she guided you to visit is famous for their authentic and delicious food. Great video, great filming as well and i'm looking forward to more Hanoi content 🍻

“It looks a bit unhygienic.. Yeah it is” 😂 I’m also Ausländerin in Germany and visited Hà Nội and a couple other cities last year. Got terrible food poisoning but that didn’t stop me from eating everything, no regrets. Btw, do you mind sharing the restaurants locations?

Obviously it wasn't that terrible ,cause food poisoning that people I knew got was so bad they almost died ,it took them a year to recover ,no food is worth food poisoning,it's my biggest fear ,you can literally die from it

[@wendynieves7159]

I know exactly how you felt when your sister kept disappearing. My husband would do that every time we went shopping. He loves to shop but he would just keep going and never look back to see if I had stopped to look at something. Every trip to target(his favorite store) I would lose him almost immediately

[@SourPickles8]

This type of content, ie tour guide, showing around food spaces really does suit you, and especially with a guest. Excellent new long form content. Good job, Uyen!

[@CoolTaxiDriver]

That coconut jelly looked wonderful! The other dishes, too! When I was in college, a friend of mine cooked for everyone, and it was delicious! I remember him holding a little ball of dried noodles and when he dropped it into a wok..it just went..POOF..and filled up the whole pan. Fun food to eat!

Thank you for such an enjoyable feature Uyen; I adore this video so much! You should do more of such food vlogs as you are honest with your thoughts, the tour isn't highly edited (you keep it real and natural) and I learnt quite a bit about Hanoi food culture. Your sister and brother in law are very sporting and supportive as well. All the best to you and German bf!

[@azuredragonvtx2429]

Your video reminded me of my time in China. My family is from there, so I used to visit very often up until the pandemic; since then, i haven't had the chance to go back. I really miss the cheap and fresh food you can find just anywhere on the street just like in your video. The shear variety is unmatched as well. It's nearly impossible to find the same thing here in the US. Thank you for sharing about your culture!

[@ajourney50]

I think you are a very good food blogger. I found your videos by chance a couple of months ago, and I purchased a Vietnamese home cookbook, after watching them.
