I can't believe how clean all of the shops and the kitchens were! My local fish and chip shop has oil build up that you can count like tree rings for years of service! I will be visiting Vietnam, it's on my bucket list due to your series.
As a Vietnamese who hasn't been to Vung Tau for 8 years, I'm so surprised the place has changed a lot and it's so clean - both the outside, kitchen and dining area!
well done sonny! the shrimp at the end looked AMAZING!!! incredible what variety there is on markets like these. really wish i could experience that just once! LOVE your videos. ive watched. every single one, HUGE fan! love ya! keep the happiness coming!
Sonny, watching from Cyprus in the med sea. You don't just show food & culture you are showing the world to us that cannot afford to, so I t👍👍👍👍hank you.
This is not just a Food&Travel channel ....This is a cultural documentary that makes me appreciate our planet and I will support this channel till I'm an old woman. 👍🥰🥰
Why I laughed so much when Sony joking about the coconut milk "fresh from the can" 🤣. When I was 5 years old my mom always making fresh coconut milk....from the coconut. It's a bit long process with a lot of patience. Nowadays my mom not even bother making that anymore, we part of the "fresh from the can" club 😋

Welcome to Vung Tau. I'm living here for about 3 years and I absolutely love this city! oh and beside the seafood market, there's some of other unique foods in Vung Tau like Banh Khot, etc.. You should try it!
@@bonefetcherbrimley7740 you don't have to worries about food poisoning cuz they're selling the fresh food here. things still alive when you buy it if it's a fish or crab etc...
welcome you sonny to my hometown!!! vungtau city always provive the best quality of seafoods and dont forget to take a ride around the beach after you eat. enjoy it and thank you so much. you make me miss my hometown so muchhhh.
Highly recommend you to try "Oc Ken" nuong sot tieu xanh. I had it in Vung Tau and it was super delicious. I'm not into eating snails but I love love it soo much!!! 😋 😊
@@paveantelic7876 I don't think there has ever been a recorded case of a squid killing a human, but giant, Humboldt and colossal squid are more than capable of killing someone.
My dad is the same. He is really fast at moving forward when we are at the veggy section, but he suddenly becomes really energetic and check every stand when we get to the seafood part of the market 😂😂
That is what I'm thinking, he even says at the end that the portion sizes are for 2 people (I think more honestly) I'm sure he shares it with the camera crew to help finish it, no way could he eat all those meals on his own
I think uve said this before Sunny but what happens when no one wants to take the extras you don't finish? I noticed you guys typically buy quite a bit, do the locals usually have no problem taking the rest or is it boxed up for staff?
You can get squid larger than that off the coast of California when they migrate. In fact, when it happens you can't really fish for anything else because the squid will steal anything you try to reel in. Boating companies have great rates during these times because the more we catch the better. You use this gnarly looking lure with tons of hooks on it. Drop it in the water and BAM, you're reeling one in. Catch after catch. I had 23 squid by the time I was done and OMG I was sore the next day! They are very hard to reel in. But you can't keep them whole. You are not allowed to bring back any whole squid because the ink gets everywhere. They dispatch and cut up all the squid into steaks before you leave the boat. All the extra goes back in the water as food. You can't even keep the tentacles which I thought was weird. Just steaks from the main body.
I love seeing you actually hit the target. I know most people in a day wouldn't spend 100 bucks for food. . . but when it comes to a trip I am for sure willing to spend at least that in a day for food. you and top gear have some of the best jobs on the planet as far as I understand.
I honestly don't mind if they use canned stuff. If it cuts down the prep time and cost I am all for it. It really isn't that big of a deal that they are using canned coconut milk (as long as it isn't expired). "Homemade" doesn't mean all ingredients from scratch so I would consider this homemade.
I believe you were right the first time calling the large white cephalopod a squid, before you were told it was a cuttlefish. Squid and cuttlefish are very similar, but squid have a clear cellophane-like bone, as opposed to a cuttlefish which have a large solid elongated soap-stone like minerally bone called a cuttlebone. If you ever owned a pet parakeet or cockatiel you would remember putting a white cuttlebone in the cage for them to chew on to satisfy their mineral needs.
That toadfish is actually quite poisonous! It is not recommended to eat at all but love the video! Thanks for showing us more of what Vietnam has to offer.
Saigon(ho chi Minh city) has cheaper seafood believe it or not, it’s the center of importing large amount of fresh seafood from local provinces. If you go to Vung Tau where the tourists are, it’s still gonna be expensive. Gotta find the local ones everywhere you go
@@deafea4867 yea Ik that. I’m saying local means where the local ppl are eating, not where tourists are. It will be even much cheaper. The cuddle fish he got in the video was very expensive. That’s a tourist price
@@moonlightmlbb4753 yeh, VT is just too packed with tourists and prices are just way too high. I think he just want to spend his hundred dollar in some place that near Saigon with variety of seafoods XD
