You went to Hanoi VN Mr. Lee? That's amazing. As you experienced, you can see Vietnamese people does the buffet much similar to other seafood buffet the big different in taste and presentation. @TimLee glad you enjoyed it!
Having stayed at this hotel via my employer for 10 days, I can vouch for the amazing off-the-charts food at the buffet. 3 million air miles later, I've still never found a better place in any hotel. Thanks for the memories!
Tim, I just wanted you to know that the way you present your videos makes it feel like I am with you and you are speaking directly to me. Its very comforting when your down and not feeling well. Actually at any time. Thank you again.😊
I love the Goldilocks Rule! This buffet was incredible. Everything looked delicious, fresh and mouth watering. I’m very fond of the way you manage your plate. Your food placement is fabulous! Thanks for sharing. 👍🏻🌹👍🏻
Hi Tim. Wow, another wonderful buffet in Vietnam. I sent this video to my sister to watch. We need to put this and the other buffet on our list when we visit Hanoi. Thank you Tim for another great video. Happy Sunday 😊.
@@TimLeeLetsGo i saw that but didnt see much of the “gras” so i figured they were trying to fill you up. you know i love your channel so i just had to speak up when she rushed over to fill you with other stuff.
Ive been to 21 countries. Im from NYC & trust me every single country has a "42nd street" meaning the tourist trap areas. Native NYers never shop at 42nd but tourist love it.
OMG I cannot wait to fly to Vietnam just for the food! Thank you for such an in depth video showing us so many of the items on that amazing menu. I hope you had an amazing time in Vietnam 😊
Tim, I always look forward to Sunday and watching your fabulous videos. This buffet was superb and you did a fantastic job with the food selections...everything I would have loved to try! I'll never make it to Hanoi so I appreciate you sharing this amazing culinary feast. I will be dreaming about this one and sharing it with my friends. Thanks again, Tim. This was one of the best buffets I've seen...yummy to the max!! 😋👍👍👍👍
Thank you so much Alus! Hanoi is quite amazing with many great people. Definitely very grateful and humbled to get to visit these places and eat all the people here. Thank you so much and hope you're keeping well. Kindest regards to you from Hanoi 🙂
That tuna is stunning. Whole on the buffet. Staff bringing you foie gras is special. I appreciate that you’re not cooking coagulated blood at your table. I appreciate the food being cooked and ready to serve. Great buffet. Was it worth the money?
Blue (or butterfly) pea flower makes a blue drink. Adding gin or absinthe changes the colour of the drink to pink. It is native to Indonesia but is common in Thailand and Vietnam.
That was a delicious drink! And actually, I’ve read up about it too, and based on how acidic or basic the drink is, it does change color. Thank you so so much again.🙏
Gorgeous buffet - incredible seafood. You had soooo much lobster, wow! I loved all your selections. You’ve got a great appetite - good for you. Love your buffet videos.
Oh rie that is one fantastic buffet Tim. All the seafood looks so fresh and delicious, I love the variety of different foods they have as well. Very worth it I’m sure 🥰
Blue pea is a flower, the tea comes out blue and when you add lemon juice it turns purple 💜 so yummy!!! OMG soooo much lobster/seafood so amazing!!!! Everything looked SOOOOO freaking delicious! 🤤😍 you always eat at the best places!!! How much did that water cost anyway, btw?
Tim, thank you for your videos. I'm in the travel industry and your videos are an inspiration and wealth of information. I tell my clients to subscribe to your channel.
I spent 2 months in Hanoi & never went to the JW Marritt! The buffet was certainly a special meal & at $65 it was at the very top-end of buffet prices in Hanoi! Well your paying for the name & view! Hanoi has a huge quantity of high-end restaurants at reasonable prices!
Thank you Laurence 🙂. Wow, 2 months in Hanoi?! That must be quite a wonderful trip. Really enjoying the food here as well. Lots of great places to explore and visit 😃
Hi, Tim...you always find the best buffets in either a country, state or city you are visiting 👍🙊...I was surprised to see a Beef Wellington on any buffet...the food looked delicious and a little differently prepared from other seafood buffets...great video as always...safe travels and God Bless 😘🤗💕
Hi Jade, it was quite grand and very impressive. I was also surprised to see the beef Wellington. Really amazing places to visit and many restaurants to try. Thank you again so much and keep well!
Nice Sunday surprise - a new video from you. That buffet was amazing. Highlight was you dipping a foie gras croissant in lobster bisque. Decadent. The desserts were lovely.
Tim, Very tasty looking food. I am going to try to emulate the 'foie gres' croissant & lobster bisque & lobster creamed sauce. So many good foods. Thanks. Best
You went to Hanoi VN Mr. Lee? That's amazing. As you experienced, you can see Vietnamese people does the buffet much similar to other seafood buffet the big different in taste and presentation. @TimLee glad you enjoyed it!
This episode looked mouthwateringly delicious. Definitely going to check out Ridge sounds perfect for my other half. I'm trying to get my partner to Vietnam 🇻🇳 but he wants to go to Spain 🇪🇸 😂 I think I'll let him win this one. Thanks again Tim for sharing and as always. Much love from the UK 🇬🇧 xxx
What a nice problem to have! I don't think you can go wrong with whichever place is chosen... Ha! Funny thing is that in both destinations, one still needs to keep a close eye on the passports.. (many years ago, we had a close call with pickpocketers in Spain and our passports)
Hey Tim ! Great to meet you in Ho Chi Minh at the Hotel Des Artes ! Congrats on your vlog! Make sure you check out that high pool when you visit London 😁
Hi Tim, a big shout out to you.. based on this video, it actually motivated me to travel up to this place to try this Buffet. It was as awesome as you've mentioned but the price has gone up to 1,950k VND plus 13%service &VAT total Tax on top of that.... It's not cheap n I can see the crowd has reduced maybe due to the price. I did had a great time there, food was definitely satisfying n i wish i had a bigger tummy to fit more. 😊 Btw, i went straight to get the Beef wellington first hand so i don't miss out after watching yr video, it was a great tip...😂Thanks Tim for all yr buffet videos. I love ❤buffets....
Glad you had a chance to travel and visit this Buffet! And very happy to hear that you got the beef Wellington😀. It does get a bit pricey and I hope you got the Marriott card which I think they give you 10% off if I’m not mistaken
Thank you Tim for showing us the buffett. I have a question is why we paid 3 to 4 times more in the state and did not even get this kind of quality of food. Just one small live Maine lobster already $25 and JW charge $65 for their brunch in Vietnam.😠
It is astounding the difference in costs in different countries. This is definitely inexpensive according to Western standards, but definitely pricey in Vietnam. All in all, it's definitely one of the best brunches I've seen 😀
The reason they give you 'complimentary croissants and bread' is to fill you up so you don't eat that much of the expensive items! Like we don't know their sneakiness!!🙄
Thanks Tim for another Delicious Video. That whole Tuna looked pretty Amazing. I think if I were riding on one of those scooters I'd keep my eyes shut. Take Care. 🍷
That was the first time I saw a whole tuna and it was quite impressive to see the chefs at it. It actually took a little while to get used to those scooters but I think it's probably one of the best ways to travel 🙂
Hi Tim Lee good to see again having fun Vietnam stay safe ❤ wow what amazing jamming delicious food I’m glad you enjoyed visit food trips Vietnam. You mentioned a about bottle water don’t look good it’s dirty? Thank you beautiful video ❤🙏🏼🌹
You look super cool riding the scooter. The JW Cafe in the JW Marriott Hotel by the lake has a awesome view. This seafood buffet does have more types of seafood. Vietnam has many Korean bbq restaurants. However, this buffet has an Indian food section not a Korean food section which is different. The beautiful cakes and other desserts are awesome. You are very fortunate to be having a wonderful time in Hanoi, and even riding a motorbike. Initially, I thought it was a scooter which is more for kids, haha 🤩
Hi Min, very grateful and humble to get to visit and meet all the great people here in Hanoi. The streets were certainly crazy, but I quickly got used to riding on those motorbikes. They are actually rideshares so there is a driver in front. There's no way I would have been able to navigate the streets in Vietnam 😅. Really enjoying the places here and hope you're keeping well 🙂
@@TimLeeLetsGo It went by too quickly so I didn’t notice that there is a driver in front. It’s better and more safe to have a driver that is more familiar with the streets in Vietnam. Vietnam seems like a nice country with lots of modern upscale restaurants and hotels 🏨
