And unsurprisingly, he said he wanted pho.
6
So I'm gonna take him to one of my favorite spots, which is...
7
Pho Seoul.
8
They have multiple locations around the city.
9
It's probably five or something.
10
They serve like a stir-fried beef.
11
That's a northern style.
12
It's really freaking good.
13
Let's go in.
14
They have something that's cool here.
15
This is called pho-cine-phoam.
16
So it's pho-cine means fried and phoam means like puffed.
17
So it's stir-fried pho-pho.
18
So like the stir-fried beef with the vegetable

24
and I know one other restaurant the whole city that served
25
that style So there's probably more but I don't know yet
26
And then this place is cool because they have a smoked tongue which is really pretty good and smoked brisket, which is so rare It's good.
27

56
My wife has a catchphrase.
57
Catch, touch, touch, oh touch.
58
She said, oh it's touch.
59
Oh at this restaurant, she just made it up.
60
We were at a restaurant and she's like, ew, it's touch.
61
I'm like, what do you mean touch?
62
She was like, oh it touch your heart.
63
I'm like, did you just make that up?
64
She's like, yeah, okay.
65
Liam's got a catch race too, Liam does.
66
Seed.
67
That's what he says.
68
Yeah, mine's, there's a store called the 19,000 store.
69
So it's like a dollar store here, 70 cents.
70
And I got these places for 70 cents.
71
Mine are like golden, I guess, or.
72
Yeah, I buy all my plateware now with this 19,000 store.
73
Cause it's like, sometimes I'm getting really nice plates for 70 cents.
74
Yeah, cause with that, they use like weird like plating, like the plating to cover it.
75
So it's like, it all looks like super cheap.
76
And like, it looks like super cheap.
77
And like, you're like, am I getting this?
78
Usually the, all the plates are just like these mass things from China.
79
And either it was a print wrong
80
or they just have a closing out sale from the last 10,000 pieces or whatever it is.
81
But the silverware always seems to be wrapped in the same.
82
But I need more silverware.
83
You excited, Liam?
84
You hungry?
85
I think it's us, I think it's us, I think it's us.
86
Oh, JD got the kids meal.
87
Damn, it smells pretty good.
88
This is northern style too.
89
This is a very different style.
90
But yeah, the broth is nice.
91
You can see how much green onion is in there?
92
Northern style, there's no herbs.
93
I like this bowl a lot.
94
What do you typically add to it?
95
I like pickled garlic, chili sauce.
96
This is northern style chili sauce, which is spicy and funky.
97
Very, like, fermented, so if you want to avoid that for today.
98
I usually do lime and garlic, and I do add those guys in there cooler and let them hang out.
99
They're not good straight.
100
They need to soak.
101
Well, you see, Liam is a pickle crusher, man.
102
He freaking loves pickles.
103
The cool thing is, like, anytime you need anything, you can just say, M-Oi.
104
The M is like you're calling someone younger than you, and Oi is like, hey.
105
So it's like, hey young person.
106
But that's kind of just like the standard anytime you need anything.
107
Because you're a, you're what they consider a month.
108
Yeah, and also in this kind of context, it would be like a customer.
109
So the younger is also kind of like, not just eight, it can also be situational.
110
It was like a combo thing, it was cheaper when you buy all three.
111
This is smoked brisket, smoked tongue.
112
This is half dried beef.
113
This is like beef that's like dried in the sun halfway.
114
And then this is like a fried beef ball.
115
Pickles and chili sauce.
116
It's a little bit hot so you can dip in here if you don't want spice.
117
Okay.
118
This is pretty freaking fatty though.
119
I like this tongue a lot.
120
It's soft.
121
And actually this beef is really good.
122
I haven't had that here yet.
123
Very smoky.
124
Which is so rare here.
125
There's nothing smoked here.
126
That's why it's very exciting.
127
And this one, this one you kind of, you can eat it any way you want, but you can break this open.
128
You kind of make like a pocket.
129
Then you put that in there.
130
You're really going for it.
131
Yeah, this dish is awesome.
132
I've never seen it ever like this.
133
That one you have to order if you come here.
134
I love that fudgeean pump. So good.
135
Liam's gonna be giving food tours in a couple months.
136
That is so good.
137
Top tier.
138
That one kicks butt.
139
The contrast and the meat is like the puff.
140
And the puff is such a good texture.
141
You digging a tree?
142
You didn't You didn't put any meat?
143
You better put some meat in there, boy.
144
I know, I was opening it so I could put the meat in there.
145
A little bit of everything.
146
Some meat, the iron.
147
What's the green in there?
148
Just basil?
149
You're talking about this right here?
150
Yeah.
151
This is like a spinach.
152
Spinach with a strong temp.
153
This is very popular in the end.
154
Yeah, but in a lot of the soups, basic soups.
155
This is basil.
156
Yeah, I saw that, but I was like, the rest of it does not look like a tree.
157
Yeah, what do you think of tree?
158
Digging it?
159
Top tier, yeah, that's a good one.
160
What do you, you want to give a number?
161
Yeah.
162
Oh, God, give me a number.
163
16. 16?
164
16 again.
165
And what about if there was no candy?
166
What would the point be?
167
Still 16?
168
Yeah.
169
Okay good, you can have candy back.
170
This thing's cool.
171
I have to remember the green in between bites.
172
It's so good.
173
I like the stir-fried style.
174
Like, it gives it just a deeper beefiness to it, a little bit of garlic, a little fattiness on top.
175
Whoa, next level.
176
That's beer.
177
Big club, baby.
178
Yeah, I like that one interesting flavor Yeah,
179
there's a couple things
180
that they call it like your one-sided dried you can get it with squid too and it's cool
181
So that's like the faux noodle that's not cut and they just roll a big What's the leaf?
182
Basil.
183
Super strong.
184
About the super strong basil, you don't care?
185
Oh, okay.
186
Liam, you are crushing this.
187
Liam will be your tour guide.
188
He knows what's up, man.
189
Michael will drive you and you show him the food.
190
Yeah.
191
Great, you got a number?
192
Do one through ten.
193
What's your rating?
194
Eight.
195
Eight.
196
Okay.
197
Yeah, I think personally I like pho, foo-yah better in District 3 for Northern style.
198
This one's easier to find because there's a lot of locations, but this place has so many different choices.
199
They got side dishes, so that part's fun.
200
They got so many cool things to try and eat with it.
201
They have like a dry pho noodle bowl with the smoked tongue on it.
202
I really like that.
203
That's kind of kick So this is this a normal thing?
204
The ones in the south will be bigger and chewier.
205
I think they're better.
206
I like...yeah.
207
Yeah, yeah.
208
Because it's more like a bread scale.
209
Yeah, yeah, yeah, because you can eat them just straight up and they're chewy.
210
They're so good.
211
You being you, where you come from, that bread thing makes sense.
212
Yeah, and this is...these are like terrible if you don't soak them.
213
The other things are really good chewy.
214
Yeah, like happening to it and then inside was still chunky.
215
Yeah, the chewy one, you'll get that with other dishes.
216
It's rare you get it with pho.
217
For complete, I think about that.
218
Really?
219
You like that one so much.
220
So I would just do the broken rice, the pickled veg, and the pork comthee, and that was like my thing.
221
Eat the broken rice here.
222
Yeah, you were saying we're gonna get a pork chop.
223
Yeah, we gotta come to Cal Met first because the kids still haven't had that yet either.
224
Really?
225
No. This spot, I love it.
226
The close spot.
227
Yeah, and the good thing is like there's literally pho on every single corner.
228
It's everywhere.
229
And we'll show you on Grab too.
230
You can order whatever you want getting delivered here.
231
Let's go.
232
We can walk along the park area,
233
we can walk up here and take a left and then it's like A&M Supermarket is the big fancy western store.
234
Did you enjoy your pho?
235
A little salty.
236
I think it's good.
237
It's a very good bowl of pho.
238
For a northern style, it's one of the best you can get in the city.
239
We're in Midtown right now, which is a super nice area of the city.
240
Super nice area of District 7, or the area formerly known as District 7.
241
The pho's really good, Mike loved it, so it's a good first meal for him to come into.
242
Yeah, it's super nice comfortable upscales.
243
Yeah, you'll definitely go to her mom's house eventually and you'll see real countryside Vietnam It's a whole different vibe.
244
I can wait.
245
I'm done with it Part yeah at this point.
246
Yeah, but there's parts of it I love and the parts
247
that I'm like I just want to take a shower They have one cold shower
248
and then you're the tenth person in line.
249
Is that what's happening?
250
You guys left the park real quick.
251
You're in the park and you left.
252
All right Let's walk over the peak area the peak is
253
that building that we stayed in before that has the splash pad and then next to the river and the playground.
254
Show him the waterfall.
255
Hopefully it'll be on.

Why practice speaking with this video?
This video offers a unique opportunity for English speaking practice in a lively conversational context. The speaker discusses his experiences with a friend who visits Vietnam, specifically focusing on the local delicacies, particularly pho. Engaging with this content allows learners to hear natural speech patterns, colloquial expressions, and diverse vocabulary related to food and culture. Practicing alongside the speaker using the shadowing technique—where you repeat what you hear—will help you develop fluency and improve your pronunciation.
Benefits of this Practice
- Enhances listening comprehension through authentic dialogues.
- Teaches specific cultural references, making conversations more relevant.
- Encourages the use of varied vocabulary in context, which is essential for natural speech.
Grammar & Expressions in Context
In the video, the speaker employs several key grammatical structures and expressions that are useful for learners:
- Use of simple present tense: The speaker frequently uses simple present tense, such as "They serve like a stir-fried beef," to describe a habitual action. This is important in english speaking practice because it helps convey ongoing or regular activities.
- Descriptive phrases: Phrases like "northern style" and "deep-fried pho noodles" offer detailed descriptions that enrich the listener’s vocabulary. Using descriptive language is crucial when discussing experiences and preferences.
- Direct questions: The speaker asks questions such as "Do you want just water?" This not only engages the listener but demonstrates how to maintain a conversation. Practicing such dialogues improves your interactive skills in English.
Common Pronunciation Traps
English learners may encounter several pronunciation challenges while watching this video:
- Pho: Often mispronounced, it should sound like "fuh." Mastering this pronunciation is key, especially when discussing traditional dishes.
- Kombucha: This word can be tricky due to its unique sounds. Focus on breaking it down into "kom-boo-chuh" to ensure clarity when using it in conversation.
- Glutinous: This term is less common and can confuse learners. Practice saying “gluten-us” to avoid blending it incorrectly.
By focusing on these aspects through the shadowspeaks method, you will enhance your speaking skills and pronunciation, paving the way for more natural interactions in English. Use this video as a shadowing site to repeat phrases and practice intonation as you learn more about Vietnamese cuisine and culture!
Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?
Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
