THE ULTIMATE VIETNAMESE STREET FOOD TOUR in HANOI, VIETNAM!

[@fatmanslim4592]

as a canadian vietnamese who is super white washed, its interesting to learn about my native country. Its an odd feeling being westernized but never really feeling like you fully belong. I feel like i left a part of my soul in vietnam and I need to go back one day to find it. The vietnamese tour guide is awesome, really knows his stuff

One thing that many people misunderstood is "Bun bo Nam Bo" is not actually the original food of the South. The word "Nam Bo" is translated as Southern Vietnam but "Nam Bo" in this dish is the former name of a street in Hanoi which is Le Duan (the street has the train station) Anyway, very nice video and thank the vietnamese tour guide a lot for introducing the cuisine of our country

[@thanhnguyenndt]

Bạn guide nói đúng, chỉ là bạn ấy nói chưa đủ ý. "Bún Bò Nam Bộ" thực chất là "Bún Bò Xào", nó đúng là được bắt nguồn từ Miền Nam. "Nam Bộ" là một phố cũ của Hà Nội, và quán Bún Bò Nam Bộ ở Hàng Điều ngày nay chính là quán cũ di chuyển đến, nhưng nó không phải là xuất sứ của "Bún Bò Xào - Bún Bò Nam Bộ".

He had apparently left the tourism industry when Vietnam had been closed for COVID and he told us that, when you posted your video, he took it as a sign that he should return to doing what he loved - sharing this beautiful country and city with others! His tour was fantastic. We also met another couple while staying at Tam Coc Sunshine Homestay that stayed there because of your video! Keep up the great work, and we look forward to copying your itinerary on future trips!

There is an alternative explanation for the origin of the first dish you tried, "bun bo Nam Bo," which some believe to be more accurate. According to this version, the dish was first created by a local family restaurant or food vendor located on a street in Hanoi's Hoan Kiem district called "Nam Bo," which translates to "Southern." This name has caused confusion among many people who assume that the dish must have originated in the southern region of Vietnam or been prepared in a southern style. Despite the confusion, the guide who introduced you to the dish was both entertaining and knowledgeable. As a Hanoian, I appreciate your open-mindedness towards exploring the culinary delights that Hanoi has to offer. As someone who has hosted friends from overseas, I know how frustrating it can be when they complain about small details like messy or dirty surroundings. I commend you for your positive attitude and willingness to embrace new experiences. Keep up the awesome attitude!

FYI The cooking style of Bun Bo Nam Bo is not Southern. The dish Bun Bo Nam Bo originated in Hanoi. The first store was established on what was once Nam Bo Street but is now Le Duan Street, therefore the owner gave it the name as Bun Bo Nam Bo. People are now got confused about it because of this.

The fact that “Bun bo nam bo” is not a southern cusine. It’s original from Hanoi. The first place served ít in the past located in a street which called “nam bộ”. Nam Bộ in vietnamese means Southern. Therefore, a lot of people think this dish came from southern of Vietnam.

Món này thật ra là từ miền Tây nam bộ. Nó có tên gọi đúng là bún thịt xào (nguyên liệu là thịt heo, nhưng một số người không thích thịt heo nên thay bằng thịt bò). Thịt được ướp gia vị, sả và hành tím sau đó xào thịt lên cho sả và thịt cho vàng (với thịt bò thì xào nhanh hơn thịt heo), cuối cùng cho thêm hành tây, giá vào. Ăn kèm với rau, dưa leo(dưa chuột), mỡ hành, đậu phộng, dưa chua, nước mắm chua ngọt. (Àh, mình là người miền tây)

Also hit up Nha Trang (mud bath, canonying, ruins, etc.), Phong Nha for single or multi-day caving, guided Mekong Delta tour ("The Passport Couple" did this, I think? Might have been another couple as I've forgotten...but there is one where you wear the traditional Vietnamese garb and go mud fishing), etc.

Sammy and Tommy definitely have a way of making videos that others can't touch yet. Very professionally done. However, there are other youtubers putting out great videos (may not be as beautifully edited as Sammy and Tommy's, though). Other interesting videos I've seen are "Jammy Bits" whom are motorbiking across Vietnam right now, "Shot in the Dark Travels" whom are having the time of their life in Vietnam, "Chase and Shelbs", "Flora and Note" (last year's videos), "2Passports 1Dream" (also from last year), etc. And since you mentioned Paddy, I assume you're interested in the Ha Giang Loop, so check out "LukePalms" and CularTravels. "Alright Anton!" has put out some great drone videos from Ninh Binh and Hue and such. Oh, and do food tours in every city you can...great tour guides I've seen are from "Steph and Pete" in Hoi An, MomDuty and "Flora and Note" in Hanoi, and "Chase and Shelbs" in HCMC/Saigon.

The lemon taste in the sugarcane juice comes from either kamquat or lime they mix in the juice

[@SammyandTommy]

That makes sense. Thanks for the info 🤗

Kudos to the local guide, but Bún Bò Nam Bộ is actually a Hanoian food. It starts off on a street named Nam Bộ (now Lê Duẩn str), hence the name Bún Bò Nam Bộ.

[@pohanahawaii]

🌺 You guys were good sports! And that was interesting about life in the old quarters of Hanoi.

[@SammyandTommy]

Thanks! It was cool that we got to learn about history along with the food tour! Great experience!

[@EChinh]

"Bún Bò Nam Bộ" ở Hàng Điếu thật ra chính là quán "Bún Bò Xào" nằm ở phố "Nam Bộ" - tên gọi cũ của phố Lê Duẩn ngày nay. Nói quán "Bún Bò Nam Bộ" là quán đầu tiên bán món này ở Hà Nội là đúng, nhưng nói đây là xuất xứ của món này là hoàn toàn sai. "Bún Bò Xào" hoặc "Bún Thịt Xào (Bún xào với các loại thịt khác, ko nhất thiết là bò)" hoàn toàn được bắt nguồn từ Nam Bộ.

the lemony taste in the sugarcane juice come from the kumquat we put in to cut down the sweetness

[@SammyandTommy]

Oh good to know! It was so delicious! 🤗

[@doodahgurlie]

Yep, it's to counter the sweetness and also adds another dimension to the aroma. It's delicious!
