It was fantastic Con Psalios! And so unique. Very addictive indeed. Thanks for watching and commenting on this one. We hope you enjoyed the series 😄 Cheers, Sheena

[@MultiOasisfan]

Back in my country in the early 80's and late 90's in my local wet market there's a whole section dedicated to fresh flowers of all kind and it smells like heaven!..Brings back a lot of memories when Thomas walk thru the flowers section of the market☺️

[@ChasingaPlate]

Sounds gorgeous. Isn’t it such a lovely smell. Really enjoyed spending time on that street in the video. So neat to look at everything and the smell it 😀 Thanks so much for watching this one and we hope you enjoyed it. Cheers, Thomas 😀

😄😄😄 it’s what we’re all about Dan! Thanks for watching mate. Cheers, Sheena

[@khinkhin100]

With the beef wrapped in betel leaf dish, I think you guys did not notice the bowl of water under the rice paper plate. That bowl is used to soften the rice paper. In Vietnam, we normally serve 2 types of rice paper, this one is the traditional one that MUST come with a bowl of water to soften it. The other one is in a rectangle shape and super thin and does not need to be soften with water.

[@joshr9417]

That crunchy rice paper made me laugh, oh well we all make dinning mistakes.

[@brilliantbutblue]

@@joshr9417: I was a tad confused, l also noticed the bowl under the sheets of rice paper which l assume had the water in to soften them. Im certain Sheena will enlighten us as to this mystery. Maybe she likes it that way🤔

[@khinkhin100]

Yeah, just my suggestion. There is no right or wrong in how people eating food in their ways. Maybe she likes it that way. She is correct as the rice paper can be soften with the wet vegetables and the moist in the beef.

[@brilliantbutblue]

@@khinkhin100: Yes you are right. Im running with she used the vegies and meat to wet the paper.

[@ChasingaPlate]

Hi khinkhin100, thanks for watching! We actually did know about the bowl of water it’s just that I prefer to make my rice paper only a tiny bit soft with the moisture from the lettuce and herbs. Thomas likes to really soften his rice paper up in the water but I like mine crispy 😆 I should have mentioned it though- my bad! Hope you enjoyed this video. Cheers, Sheena

[@captainsubtext7446]

there was actuallya bowl of water underneath the ricepaper :D :D :D

[@brilliantbutblue]

Yeah it looked like that.

[@ChasingaPlate]

😄😄😄😄 yes, there was! I should have mentioned it but forgot as I like my rice paper pretty crispy. Thomas gets into it though 🤗 thanks for watching and commenting captain subtext, hope you enjoyed this one! Cheers, Sheena

[@jigglypuff9007]

Chasing a Plate - Thomas & Sheena that’s really fine since alot of the locals don’t dip in water either. I think they only give tourists the bowl of water

[@ChasingaPlate]

@@jigglypuff9007 we love how you can customise your meal to your own taste :) Everyone was getting the bowls of water but many weren't dipping when we ate there. Thanks for watching Jiggly Puff! Cheers, Sheena

I'm a Vietnamese near by Saigon. Look at what you taste, it's absolutely delicious. I have a big question how can you find these street food out and how can you eat those strange foods. It's like you are localism.

[@ChasingaPlate]

😀😀😀😀 we loved Saigon Hiep Tran Hoang! We always love to eat where the locals eat and show the best food in the cities we visit so we spend a lot of time researching before we visit, talking to locals and eating at a lot of places once we arrive so we can work out our favourite food and street vendors to put in the videos 😀 Thanks so much for your generous words.

I like to tuck in the ends of the bò lá lót like the gent behind Shenna but that's difficult to do if the rice paper is crispy! Too bad Thomas didn't notice the water softening technique @4:38. 😀 This was such a great series! It flew by! Seriously. But definitely looking forward to Cambodia.

[@ChasingaPlate]

Haha Thomas is all for the soft rice paper but I like it crispy 😄 I should have mentioned the bowl of water but totally forgot to. It’s interesting because I was taking note of all the diners and their bo la lot technique when we ate at this spot prior to this day of filming. Out of about 20 people, only two people dipped their rice paper- Thomas and another bloke 😄 I love how you can customise this type of meal to exactly your taste. Thanks for watching and commenting Tosh so glad you enjoyed the series 😄 Cheers, Sheena

That rice paper does not need to be wet before wrap. It won't be broken when you wrap it dry. This type you can only find it in Vietnam because it is fresher than the one which is exported. So it is easier to be perished.

Aw that’s so cool! Thanks so much for sharing Kevinly and I’m glad we could accompany you on your commute 🤗 considering the amount of street food we eat we very rarely get sick.

I hate to waste my stomach space on a bad meal so I’m sort of obsessed with making sure every meal counts so will try and find popular local places wherever we are. If we ever have any tummy troubles we always turn to activated charcoal 😄 thanks for watching and commenting mate! Big love, Sheena

Why did she laugh so hard when the lady said “xao bo” 😂😂

[@ChasingaPlate]

Hi Levy Pham, I just got the giggles as I was trying to say the names of the dishes in Vietnamese and failing miserably- so I’d say them and she’d correct me. I was just laughing at how crappy my pronunciation was 😆 thanks for watching and commenting on this one, hope you enjoy the rest of ours Saigon series! Cheers, Sheena

PSA: Soak the rice paper in the bowl of water provided. That's like eating unboiled spaghetti.

[@ChasingaPlate]

Hi JoeOfCourse, thanks for watching and commenting! Thomas is a soaker but I find wetting it with the damp leaves is enough for me 😄 I was watching the locals when they were eating and hardly anyone dipped their rice paper in water. It’s great how with this type of food you can customise to your own taste. Hope you enjoyed this video! Cheers, Sheena

[@trueb7460]

They don’t soak water in VN rice paper is fresher there no need to

[@joeofcourse]

@@trueb7460 I guess I wasn't born there. We should also not read the instructions on the packaging.

[@sirhoopalot1]

@@joeofcourse No no, you're not incorrect, I'm VNmese and in my family we always soak the rice paper.

[@hanhang5086]

I agree. Its not the soaking or wetting that's the problem its that it needs to time to dampen and become elastic or stretchy. This is a culinary item that requires patience on waiting for the wrap to do its thing. I'm not so sure I'm open about eating a "crunchy" rice paper before the process of elasticity comes in as I am use to it being a nice soft wrap to hold all the ingredients together. Personally I think its wrong to eat it too soon because the function of a wrap is to hold everything together not a crunchy mexican taco.

Lordy hit send on my last comment before the end..😂😂😂😂 Still an epic vlog, but wow that seafood feast at the end. Need that shop near me.

[@airportbumdad]

You’re killing me! My fiancé would give me scallops just like these as a snack. She brought them with spicy fish sauce and orange milk. Now I can’t go back until June.😭😭 Great videos. Have safe travels.

[@brilliantbutblue]

Food dreams!! We are all salivating here😍

[@ChasingaPlate]

Pretty amazing snack 😍 count down until June Opie! Thanks for watching and commenting and we’re so glad you enjoyed this series. Hope you like what we have coming up on the channel. Cheers, Sheena

'Rice noodle mat' 🤣 such a cute but weird description. There's a dish called kway chup served in Thailand Singapore and Malaysia that features square pieces of noodles (like noodle 'mats' 😂) served with pigs organs in a broth. I know you have eaten this before. Anyhow, how crazy is that - a wrap within a wrap. That wild betel leaf is also used in the Thai dish mieng kham, a favourite of mine.

[@ChasingaPlate]

I didn’t know what to call it A O 🤣 that’s just what came out 😂 so weird. That wild betel leaf is delicious! Such a great flavour. Will look up mieng kham to see what it is 😄 thanks for watching and commenting mate, hope you enjoyed this video. Cheers, Sheena

[@liszeify]

Would have been much better, had you told us the district you were in.

[@ChasingaPlate]

Yep we did. All that and more is in the description. Thanks. Thomas.

[@Michael_Sheldon]

So many amazing combinations and textures! Thanks for presenting it all so beautifully. 😃

[@ChasingaPlate]

Thank you for your generous words Michael! So true about the myriad of combinations and textures it’s such a fun cuisine to eat. Thanks for watching and commenting 😘 Cheers, Sheena

[@Pixlanta]

T&t have you gotten sick in Vietnam yet? What precautions do you take to not get sick? Another great video❤️

[@ChasingaPlate]

Hi Phoenix Legion, thanks for watching! Nope we didn’t get sick at all in Vietnam. We always eat where it’s popular and busy with locals wherever we go so we very rarely get food poisoning. We do carry activated charcoal with us just in case though- it’s a wonder drug! Thanks for commenting on this one 😄 Cheers, Sheena

[@Pixlanta]

Chasing a Plate - Thomas & Sheena what a great tip carrying activated charcoal. Do you take it after you get sick or before?

[@ChasingaPlate]

@@Pixlanta when you get that first inkling of oooo something isn't right here, you pop 2-3 charcoal tablets and it does wonders. If it's a really bad case you just keep taking them throughout your sickness as the bugs attach themselves to the charcoal and it helps clear them from your system quicker 😀 Amazing stuff! Cheers, Sheena

[@AO-iv6yr]

7:50-7:52 I don't mean to be rude but it is just hilarious how we are so used to sitting at the high western dining table and suddenly we see Thomas sitting like this with the legs open. Being a Southeast asian I understand our propensity for sitting on stools and squatting but I just don't get how someone could eat comfortably with the stomach squashed in this position (ie I don't agree with this style of sitting when eating) 😂

[@ChasingaPlate]

🤣🤣🤣🤣 especially when you have legs as long as Thomas’s! It’s so awkward for tall people as you can’t have your legs out straight either as that is weird. He always looks as if he’s folded into this frog-like/triangle pose. Keeps you limber though I suppose 😆 thanks for watching and commenting A O! Hope you enjoyed this one! Cheers, Sheena

Hey Thomas & Sheena ! Do you know that foods and beverages in Vietnam (Saigon city ) are most intoxicated ? Tell people should be aware of the danger !!!

[@ChasingaPlate]

Hi Victor Le, thanks for watching and commenting! What do you mean by intoxicated? Cheers, Sheena

[@Rebecca-dm5ul]

Epic vlog. Omg that soup looked delicious. Thomas loved that you said a nice bit of brain in that bite. Shades of Hannibal Lecter.
