Mexican Moms Try Vietnamese Food 

What do you want to see the mamás try next? 😁

I love how Martha enjoyed every single item 😂

Martha is the only one who ate the chè ba màu correctly because she mixed everything with the spoon. That's how the individual flavours blend together.

Banh xeo should be eaten fresh since it's pan fried. Eating it cold is like eating french fries after 15 minutes. Even if it's reheated it's not the same.

I like how Martha made a Mexican name for all the dishes

the best part of this video is Martha saying the name of the food 😂😂 3:59 had me dying

As I Vietnamese person i thank you for trying our most cultured food🇻🇳

I figured someone would take issue with sweet beans 😂. For some of us Asian people, savory beans took a while to adjust to as well

Glad you guys tried Vietnamese food, but for the foods like the spring/summer rolls and the banh xeo, those are so much better fresh. The rice paper on the rolls look wilted, and the mamahs said it was chewy, which is a big giveaway. The banh xeo, since it's pan fried, should be crispy, which is why they said it was rubbery.

for a little bit more of information, Vietnamese dishes usually come with sauces the sauces will complete the flavor of the dishes and a dish can come with different sauces

Martha is everyone's other Momma! Love her voice, spirit and passion for good food!

I think it's cool how this channel started out with just Xóchitl and Lucy. Now we have a whole handful of Mamah's to enjoy 😌

Martha is so cute and pronounces the item pretty well. Viet food is tricky sometimes. Everything is meant to be eaten together but is customizable. There’s always chili at the table to add spice but only if you want to. Banh xeo needs to be eaten fresh or it’ll get spongey vs crispy. Air fry helps. Spring rolls also should be steamed to bring moisture back to the rice paper and always eaten with sauce. You can also throw chili in the sauces. Pate is definitely an acquired taste. For a newbie, I feel like banh mi thit nuong would have been better. Glad y’all did this 🎉

Y’all need to get Martha to Vietnam!

I am latino and asian, so savory and sweet beans are part of my diet. But I can see that it can be difficult to eat sweet beans if you're not used to

Bánh Xèo should not be cold and rubbery like that. It's best eaten right after you make it. The outer shell is suppose to be thin and very crispy.

Martha is such a foodie I love her she's amazing.❤❤❤

A lot of Mexicans fill up the Chinese buffets and Pho restaurants here in Utah so it's safe to say we love all kinds of food. Thanks for sharing!

I love the 2nd mama, she TRIED AND LOVED everything! ❤❤

I love the older woman in the flower dress. She accepts every dish for what it is, tastes everything, and finds it all delicious.

That's the thing about Southern California - there are so many different cuisines! Mexican, Central American, all kinds of Chinese, Korean, Vietnamese, Persian, Armenian, plus good old American. It's amazing.

im from SJ and all the mexicans here love vietnamese food and vise versa ❣️

Marthaaaaaa is a real foodiee..The other mum’s reaction are also quite wholesome 🥺❤️ Please make them try Indian Cuisine too❤️❤️

I'm Vietnamese and there are different types of things you can put into Banh Mi, they're not all the same and you can literally customize your Banh Mi depending where you go and like put whatever you want on it or they'll give you a bag of it. I am also picky what type of meat I eat on it. For Banh Xeo, my mom cooks it GOOD ASF and we just add soy sauce on it and it's the BEST and it's not bitter or bland or chewy, I think it was definitely made wrong here. It should be eaten fresh as soon as it's cooked

Do a segment of Martha trying to pronounce foreign food names 😂

I love the mom with the curly hair, shes so cheerful and happy I smile when shes happy😁

This! I love how these ladies honored the foods of another culture and tried everything instead of turning up their nose or mocking it. They were happy to say they enjoyed most of the flavors, and if they didn’t like something they acknowledged that it was just their taste preferences, not a condemnation of an entire cuisine.

Mamah rocks! I lost my mom 4 years ago… I have never been able to recover from that blow… but watching mamah brings a little bit of that mom love to my heart ♥️ Thank you!

i really love their kindness and the respect they have for other foods. Also i love how open minded they are willing to try new things. We can be best friends, lol.

Bruh I love Martha she's so positive, appreciative and open to many foods

I just love Martha, she is open to trying things and always really enjoys the food.

As a vietnamese , I would love to try more Mexican food.

Martha was Viet in one of her previous lives 😂❤

These mamas are so respectful and open minded. ❤

I’m so happy to see this! (As a Vietnamese)

I lived near to a large Vietnamese community in Southern California most of my life and was introduced to Vietnamese food early. Pho Bo Vien, Banh Mi and spring rolls with peanut sauce became regular staples for me are still three of my favorites to this day.

The inherent grace & inclusive nature of Mexican women is on full display here.

I LOVE MARTHA she’s the cutest person ever omg 🥹🥹🥹😍😍😍🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰❤️❤️❤️

Lmao I love Martha!! Her positivity is contagious! She needs to be in more videos!!

In Southern California, its amazing to see the amount of Mexican and Vietnamese people eating each others food. The same use of lime, cilantro, fresh vegetables, tropical fruits, and spiciness I think makes it accessible to both cultures.

They should try bun Bo hue. It’s a spicier, heavier pork and noodle soup dish from the central region.

For many Vietnamese foods, it is very important that they are served fresh and with the correct sauces. It definitely affects the overall dish.

The grandma she the real one didn’t complain and enjoyed every food. Love her

The oldest one is adorable!!! Martha? I'm glad her energy is so bright and she's so willing to eat the various Vietnamese foods with great gusto :')

Vietnamese food is so delicious 😋 but also quite healthy for you!!! Glad these Mamas’s got try Vietnamese cusine 😁 I hope you guys try Cambodian food one day 🙏

Ok so the lady did a fantastic job pronouncing the food’s name , like really people who study Vietnamese couldn’t do better.

My Latin friends loves Vietnamese food. And I love Latin food. We find the two cusine similar in some ways.

Martha needs her own show!! I feel like she would be the fun aunty 🎉❤❤

i just love how open minded and respectful Martha is towards trying another culture's food. i'm sure there were some dishes that she thought wasn't that good but still had such nice things to say about it. i think it's hard for Mexican people to wrap their heads around the idea of eating beans as a sweet dessert dish so i understand the other 2 ladies apprehension, but Martha was willing to try and still didn't have anything bad to say about it. 🤭 what a sweet and adorable lady ❣ i love the part where she says it's good to learn how to eat food from Vietnam in case she goes there someday. 😁

the lady in the flower blouse .... 100 Knows how to eat and actually enjoy the food the right way!

Qué linda doña Martha, todo le gustó ❤❤

when banh xeo is fresh, its crispy and theirs is soggy. but when fresh, hella bomb

I wish my auntie could cook for all these lovely ladies.. so sweet. so open minded and its like the way they explain what they like and dont. you know you can make something they would love. extra love to martha who loved it all

I always kind of assumed that Mexicans would like Vietnamese food, nice to see my suspicions confirmed. Viet food is different, but it has a lot of familiar fundamentals.

Martha on everything in this video: Esta buena, eh~ 😂

I love Marta's expressions and demeanor. She reminds me a lot of my own Mama that I miss dearly.

I'm vietnamese and I love mexican food. Glad these ladies got to try some of our food and seems they enjoyed almost everything. I think everyone should try other cuisines and it surprises me how so many people go their whole lives without trying vietnamese food or other cuisines. They are missing out by not giving it a chance.

Vietnamese American here! Super happy to see this! :D

The older mom was great, shes less picky on textures and enjoys food more for what it is. I wouldve thought the other 2 younger moms would have been the same but they didnt like textures. Alot of mexican food has textures too but it was great seeing them try other culture food

when she got that spoon IMMEDIATELY!! LOL I love it!

For the Bánh mi, the French roll comes from the French influence on Vietnam and Mexico.

As a Vietnamese American who spent all my life in Houston (a very diverse part of Texas with a ton of Asians and Latinos) and wants to get proficient in Spanish, I absolutely love this channel. I get to work on my Spanish comprehension from listening to these moms, and I'm so happy to see them enjoy my culture's food.

Being raised by Vietnamese. I’m very happy you made this video. Thank you!

I love both mexican & vietnamese food so this was a joy of a video.

YES this was the episode I was waiting for! I'm so glad they enjoyed most of what they tasted. Also major props for having the correct sauces for each dish. I only wish they had the bbq pork banh mi instead of the cold cut.

I like how Martha tends to take apart all her food. She's analyzing what it's made of before she tries it, LOL!

High key Martha pronoun the food very close to what we called them! ❤❤❤

We appreciate your effort and hard work. God bless you all.

6:44 I love how she took that bite 😭💓😂😂 she’s so fun I love

Tôi là người Việt Nam và tôi cảm ơn những người đã đưa ẩm thực và văn hóa Việt Nam đến người khác. Trân trọng cảm ơn và yêu mọi người và yêu hòa bình

I love how respectful and polite they are! Different than those other RU-vid clips where they make their own versions of their culture's food and then try to find ways to dis the other dishes made.

The lady with the green background, I’m obsessed with her! She loved everything!

Hello! I love your guy's videos and this is a crazy idea but there should be a Mom's cook-off with judges!

la senora a la que le encanto todo es tan bonito, y su estilo de comer esta super bien.

I totally understand how Mexican don’t like beans as dessert as they are used to having it as food. Whereas me as a cambodian/Vietnamese, we are used to have bean as dessert and not dishes( maybe there a few dish that use beans) . So I also feel weird when I eat burrito or tortilla that have beans in it.

5:35 that "Banh xeo" is right on point, the way she said it was smooth

psa you're supposed to have more sauce on the spring rolls and bánh xèo. the sauces bring out the flavor and are at the heart of the dish.

🇲🇽🤝🇻🇳 my viet friends are always welcomed to the carne asada!

It's so funny to me because I feel the complete opposite about beans. I only had them as a dessert growing up so savory beans were hard to get used to

Bún bò huế is a spicier heartier noodle soup of beef and pork, and bò kho is like guisado, with a SE Asian twist (star anise profile). These would've been awesome options 🙌

Every food served looks so yummy and mouthwatering. I'm a Filipino. I like how everyone was just respectful enough to explain what they don't like about every dish served and what they do like about it. This is how you should do reviews. 😊

Y'all should do a video of all the mamahs and papahs in their young days and show us pictures...

I love Vietnamese and Mexican the same

Do Lao food!! Mexican folks will love it. Spicy Papaya salad and bbq meats and sticky rice

I love the mom in the flower shirt, she compared each dish to a Mexican dish They tried all of my favorites!! Now I’m craving a che thai

Martha came to eat! She thoroughly enjoyed all the food. 😊

Yummy food, Tell the mamahs to enjoy the food for me it looks like they liked it 😋😋😋

I love how Martha tired to pronounce every dish ❤

this is so wholesome theyre so respectful and open minded

I feel like this was a pretty fair review! We have to remember that everyone grew up developing their own palettes, and I think every review was pretty fair when coming from someone who wasn't as familiar with the Vietnamese cuisine! Excellent review.

The super old lady with the rose shirt is so adorable. I would love her as a grandma.

These wonderful women are a blast to watch as they try new foods, each with her own unique style. Vietnamese food is delicious, and they all gave it an open-minded try.

Vietnamese person here! Love pho! Yum! Edit: And the Bánh mi is looking great!

I love the mom in the black floral dress. I bet she’s great to take out to try various foods.

i just watch these ladies take bite size pieces of a whole meal and try to find individual bitterness, sweetness, crunchiness, palatability, sourness, and whether its beans, chicken, beef or pork and im here shaking my head. only one of the ladies gets it. the one that had her crepe wrapped and try the sauce or the bean dessert where she scoop the whole mofo spoonful of the entire dessert instead of the lady with glasses trying each layer of the dessert as though its separate layers of cake. When you eat a burger. Do you sit there and wonder if the lettuce is bitter and the pickle sour or do you take a big bite and wonder if the sesame, ketchup, mayo etc is good match? Individually pepper is peppery and salt is salty. Its like saying water is wet without diving into the pool and seeing the ocean.

Martha is so sweet!!!

Trust me, I am vietnamese american. I have a Mexican meal every day for more than 5 years. for me Mexican foods is the best every way, especial truck foods

Banh xeo is my favorites foods, and it serve when it is hot, It is crunchy, wrap lettuce and fresh herbs with banh xeo inside, then dịp into special Vietnamese fish sauce then enjoyed. It will not taste good if it is not fresh 😢

That grandma in the brown dress liked just about everything. Awesome.

If someone asked if I had Vietnamese food before, I would lie just to have some more. Love it.
