Food For Good Eps 82: Chiếc vá múc nước lèo bún riêu độc nhất mà bảo tàng thế giới săn lùng ở đâu ? - YouTube
Channel: Color Man
[21]
Ladies and gentlemen,...
[24]
once again, I'm on my journey. Now, it's 6:45 AM...
[28]
and I'm bringing you to a new food destination.
[31]
To be more precise, it's a small street food
stall located inside a dead end.
[39]
It's located at Street No.7 inside
Chu Van An Area, Binh Thanh District.
[42]
Street No.7 is really narrow.
[46]
But this stall, an audience of mine has insisted that...
[52]
I should come here as they offer wonderful
Bun Rieu (Crab Paste Soup with Rice Vermicelli).
[56]
And the price is very affordable.
[59]
What really touches my heart is that
the daughter of the owner has asked me to...
[69]
make a video introducing her mom's stall.
[71]
She gives me the address which is
Chu Van An Street, number 35/4 or something.
[76]
The streets in this area are pretty confusing
so it took me a while to get here.
[80]
But I made it eventually.
[87]
Don't you agree that my helmet today is so cool?
[92]
I used to wear a gray helmet
which was not really welcomed.
[96]
So today I decide to invest in a new one.
Well, that sounds a bit exaggerating.
[100]
This new hat is actually prepared by
my visual director - Mr. Hoang Dao.
[105]
It looks fun, ain't it?
[114]
This is the stall selling Bun Rieu.
[121]
There is also Canh Bun
(Water Spinach Noodle Soup). Oh my!
[124]
You all know that I'm a big fan of it.
[126]
But this morning, I'll opt for Bun Rieu.
[133]
- Excuse me, is it true that a bowl of Bun Rieu here is 15,000 Dong?
- Yes.
[136]
See, that's what I come here for. You know,...
[142]
some of my viewers commented that
the price here is insanely affordable.
[147]
You can hardly get anything with
15,000 Dong in Saigon these days.
[151]
I'll sit here. Set the table, please. The lighting is good.
[153]
It's a VIP table.
[155]
Nah, just the lighting here is
perfect to make a nice video.
[165]
The soup is boiling and giving off an aroma of crab paste.
[173]
My goodness!
[174]
Too much to handle!
[178]
I'm gonna take some nice photos of it.
[204]
Can you prepare 1 bowl first? Then...
[209]
when my friend finishes filming,
please make another bowl for him.
[214]
Oh, what a unique ladle!
[216]
- Which soup would you like?
- Gosh, he likes the ladle.
[220]
May I borrow it? This is interesting.
[222]
What's your name?
[223]
- I'm Hien.
- What about the girl?
[227]
Her name is Quynh Anh.
[228]
Anh, come out here!
[231]
Folks, you can't find this ladle anywhere else.
[236]
- It gets worn out after years.
- That's it.
[239]
It's become a lucky charm.
[241]
This ladle must be in use for at least 50 years, I suppose.
[245]
It's alright.
[247]
We can afford a new one but
this is a lucky charm now.
[249]
I agree.
[250]
It's true.
[252]
We, Vietnamese people,...
That was a good one you just said.
[255]
They can definitely get a new one...
[257]
but when you throw away your lucky charm,
the business sure will go down.
[262]
This is feng shui stuff, guys.
[267]
It goes the same for other objects that
have been with you for a long time, such as a vehicle.
[272]
Selling it may bring you bad luck.
[273]
- The same to old houses. Buying more is recommended.
- Can I have my ladle back?
[276]
Oops, here you are!
[278]
My bad!
[279]
It's only early in the morning and
I've stirred this whole area up.
[284]
How long has your stall been open?
[286]
About 5 years.
[288]
So, it's been around for 5 years.
[291]
- But you just moved here right?
- Yes.
[294]
Her stall used to be at the head of the street.
You were the one in charge too, right?
[298]
Are you the owner?
[299]
- Yes.
- And your daughter, is she at school?
[301]
She's just left for school.
[302]
How old is she? I'm curious
'cause she messaged me on Facebook.
[305]
She's 10.
[307]
My goodness, a 10-year-old sent me a message,
asked me to visit and support her mom's eatery.
[314]
How bold she is!
[316]
- Please tell her I send my regards.
- Sure.
[319]
Okay.
[320]
- I should stop messing around.
- Would you like a bowl of Bun Rieu?
[323]
Yes, please.
[326]
- Raw or boiled vegetables?
- Yes?
[327]
- Raw or boiled vegetables?
- Raw. I'd like some water spinach and herbs please.
[332]
Would you please let me try using the ladle?
[340]
You wanna know why?
[341]
'Cause then I can ladle as much as I want.
[345]
- There's tofu, blood tofu too. I'd want more blood tofu please.
- Okay.
[348]
Look at that ladle! How odd it is!
[354]
- Please come over here.
- Alright.
[358]
Can I have more water spinach please?
[361]
- Banana blossom too?
- Nah, only water spinach.
[363]
More, please.
[367]
She is the headwaiter.
[369]
It's okay.
[372]
That's how we, Southern people, are.
[375]
I'm cool with that.
[378]
Finally!
[383]
- Is the lightning good?
- Good.
[387]
Great enough?
[390]
Before filming, let's set up the table first.
[401]
OMG, how much do you earn
with only 15,000 Dong per bowl?
[406]
Are you able to sell the whole pot in a day?
[410]
- We sell more than just 1 pot.
- Really? What's the opening hour?
[414]
I came here before during lunch time but you were close.
[418]
- Must be sold out then. It's usually sold out around 8 AM, 9 AM.
- What's the opening hour?
[421]
From 6 AM to a bit later than 9 AM.
[425]
They sell from 6AM to around 9AM.
[427]
You guys still remember I did
come here once before, right?
[432]
It was around 12 PM.
[436]
I was going to have lunch here but they were close.
[440]
Therefore, today, I come back.
[442]
They're open from 6 AM to 9 AM at Street No.7.
[446]
The address is 35/4 Chu Van An Street, Binh Thanh District.
[455]
You sell several pots in just 3 hours? That's amazing!
[461]
That's common.
[462]
Common?
[467]
How many bowls on average?
[469]
Around 200.
[470]
200 bowls.
[475]
Let's try the soup first.
[487]
The crab paste soup is really umami.
There is also the aromatic smell of fried shallots.
[493]
The fried shallots smell wonderful.
[504]
I've never eaten a bowl of Bun Rieu
with so many blood tofu like this.
[509]
Why? Because I've ask for more of it.
[516]
The soup is really good. Smoking hot!
[519]
You saw it, right? It was boiling in the pot.
[531]
To be honest, I'm sure that if you come from Mekong Delta in particular,...
[540]
and Vietnam in general, you definitely love Bun Rieu.
[544]
I assure that.
[553]
But the flavor of Bun Rieu of
the Mekong Delta is quite different.
[556]
In the North, they have Bun Oc
(Snail Soup with Rice Vermicelli).
[561]
You can tell the snail's distinct essence in the soup.
[563]
It's different from Bun Rieu in Mekong Delta.
[565]
The soup is cooked from crab meat and pork bone.
[571]
I'm speaking as if I'm a cuisine expert.
[578]
This looks so tasty.
[582]
Oops, almost forgot!
[583]
I have to do the ritual first.
[585]
It's for my brother, Mark.
[591]
He's the big boss now.
[592]
The CEO of Facebook.
[594]
I always have to do this before eating.
[598]
Here, little bro!
[611]
Wow, what a good angle!
[622]
I'm sitting under a tree with
raindrops falling on me occasionally.
[628]
How romantic it is!
[640]
I'm about to faint.
[653]
Why did I turn the flash on?
[656]
Just a few minutes, guys.
[660]
Because it's rare to find affordable food with
such charming appearance like this. Done, let's eat!
[667]
Can't wait any longer.
[669]
Alright!
[671]
A bit of fermented shrimp paste to enhance the flavor.
[684]
Mix it up with the soup.
[686]
At where you have just put it in, taste to tell if it's good.
[689]
Add some chili in.
[698]
It's a bit spicy, along with
the fantastic smell of shrimp paste.
[702]
They make a perfect combo with the soup made from crab paste and pork bone.
[709]
Here!
[710]
Crab paste.
[713]
How can it stick together?
That's egg doing the magic here.
[719]
The egg glues the crab meat mixture into a piece like this.
[724]
But some prefer to have the whole crab paste
while others enjoy it to be separated.
[745]
Ladies and gentlemen, lately I'm quite happy to
receive lots of messages from my audience.
[752]
Each introduces 4 to 5 eateries...
[756]
around where they live such as
District 5, 7, 9, Binh Tan, Hoc Mon, Cu Chi, etc...
[766]
To be honest, I'd want to visit them all.
[769]
If only I had enough free time or
I were unemployed, I'd definitely do so.
[775]
But if that's the case, where's the money to eat all the food?
[779]
So, I'm grateful of all the support from
you guys for my food review videos.
[787]
And everyone, please feel free to share
with me any places that you find interesting.
[793]
I'll try to make time to go, just like today,
I've come to a very unique Bun Rieu stall.
[800]
They're open from 6 AM to 9 AM at
Chu Van An Street, Street No.7.
[804]
The address is 35/4 Street No.7,
Chu Van An area, Binh Thanh District.
[810]
The interesting thing about this place is
it opens early at 6 AM and sells out within 3 hours.
[815]
As for the price, it's unbelievable that you can
have such an excellent bowl of Bun Rieu in Saigon...
[822]
for only 15,000 Dong.
[825]
That's why it is so crowded with customers.
[828]
Especially when I'm sitting here,
it's even more packed.
[841]
Let's try the blood tofu.
[848]
The blood tofu is really firm and chewy.
[849]
Delicious!
[850]
It's not too big.
[852]
In some places, the blood tofu is
cut into very large pieces.
[856]
My mouth is not wide enough
to eat the whole piece at once.
[859]
The moderate size makes it more enjoyable.
[863]
How is the blood tofu so crunchy here?
[865]
Amazing!
[873]
There's also pork roll in this 15,000-Dong bowl.
[879]
How much profit can they earn?!
[886]
Just kidding!
[888]
She used to live in a rented house at the head of the street.
[892]
Now, when she moves here, she already
owns 3 houses. This alley is full of villas.
[898]
I'm just kidding, alright?!
[899]
It's a joke. Come and support her, everyone!
[901]
Or else, she may blame me if no customer
comes as I lied that she was rich.
[912]
A glass of iced tea, please.
[918]
Do you have fish sauce? Can I have some?
[938]
I like eating raw water spinach.
[940]
I prefer raw veggies.
[942]
'Cause it gets soggy when boiled.
[945]
The crispness is gone.
[946]
Water spinach should be shredded
skillfully to maintain its crispness.
[971]
Listen to the sound when I chew it...
[974]
and you'll know how crunchy it is.
[994]
Ladies and gentlemen, once again, today,
I've introduced to you guys a new food destination.
[1003]
The term "food destination" makes it sound like a huge place.
[1006]
It's just a breakfast stall.
[1008]
New, interesting, located inside a dead-end
of a residential area which is quite hard to find.
[1015]
But it's definitely worth a try.
[1020]
If you're busy working on weekdays, it's okay.
[1023]
But on weekends, wake up early and explore
such areas to realize how lovely Saigon is.
[1033]
More than that, have yourself a bowl of Bun Rieu that costs only 15,000 Dong...
[1038]
to support these local small stalls.
[1041]
Seriously!
[1042]
They have been using the same ladle
for more than 50, oops, 5 years.
[1046]
Because that is a fengshui ladle to their business.
[1049]
And their ladle will sure be exhibited
in Vietnam Culinary Museum later.
[1055]
Now, it's time to say goodbye.
[1058]
Little girl, I've come here as I promised.
[1061]
And to the viewer introducing me to this stall, here I am.
[1067]
I hope that you guys as well as the ones
recommending me to come here,...
[1073]
you'll be happier to know that your suggestions,
your enthusiasm have been paid off.
[1081]
And to my audience, please come to
35/4 Street No.7, Chu Van An, Binh Thanh District...
[1088]
and try out an authentic Southern flavor of
Bun Rieu with a really reasonable price.
[1094]
Only for 15,000 Dong!
[1095]
See you guys later!
