1
In this video, you'll discover four of Saigon's must-try noodles.
2
But let me back up.
3
Saigon, or Ho Chi Minh City, is not the capital, but it's still Vietnam's biggest city.
4
A city humming with energy, life, and food.
5
Do locals even eat breakfast at home.
6
People here go crazy for the noodles.
7
Because it's so tasty.
8
I know what that is.
9
It's delicious.
10
They make a simple bowl of noodles look like a symphony affordable to chow down on the streets.
11
You can smell...
12
Today, Calvin and I are on a mission to show you the best this city has to offer.
13
Each bite is like its own experience.
14
And it absolutely starts here.
15
Many times in this city, a completely average-looking restaurant exterior paired with a Microsoft Paint level of graphic design
16
and a name as uninspiring as Pho Vietnam are all the cues you need to know there's magic happening inside.
17
Good morning and welcome to Saigon.
18
I came here for the perfect breakfast.
19
This is like the quintessential breakfast of Vietnam.
20
I'm talking about pho.
21
Rice noodles, your choice of protein, fresh herbs, and a complex, deep, almost philosophical broth.
22
This dish transforms whatever mood you brought with you into overwhelming comfort.
23
Traditionally, you'll find pho with all its ingredients sunk in a savory broth.
24
Here, it's a completely different story.
25
They're doing kind of a deconstructed, fought experience.
26
They've really elevated this dish to a new level.
27
Upgrade one, the protein.
28
Beef shake, beef flank, beef brisket, beef ribs.
29
Did I mention yet that this dish cost under $10?
30
Oh, and there's still more beef.
31
Oxtail, a coveted delicacy that you'd never see paired with this dish.
32
Upgrade two, the noodles.
33
This restaurant's been open for five years, and up until now, they're the only pho restaurant in Saigon dishing out their own fresh, handmade ban pho.
34
Steamed rice flour batter for a couple minutes, and you get these thick, soft, chewy noodles, ready for action.
35
Finally, this dish's most crucial element.
36
Oh, a steaming sauna of delicious, aromatic flavors.
37
I smell cumin, star anise, cloves, plus all the bones that were cooking in there overnight.
38
All the flavors blended together.
39
It smells good.
40
Soon this broth is going to be in a stone pot, bubbling, boiling away, and that's going to come to our table.
41
Put a stone bowl over a raging flame until it's seriously hot.
42
Then add oxtail, ribs, flank, brisket, and spring onion.
43
Next, the glorious broth.
44
Blanch the noodles and put them on the side, together with thin beef shank slices and herbs.
45
So I need to be careful here.
46
If he drops it, then I can't have children.
47
Take a look at this.
48
It is insanely hot.
49
I think we should start with a little taste of this broth.
50
It's almost like a consomme.
51
Oh, it's so hot.
52
It is oily, aromatic, savory.
53
If you could try one cut inside of here.
54
Oh, for me, it'd be the oxtail.
55
Oh, it's really about that gelatinous texture.
56
Just look at how jiggly it is.
57
It's highly desired.
58
You cannot have a good bowl of pho without a nice fatty soft brisket My gosh,
59
dude super soft meat I mean it's a little bit more on the drier side compared to
60
that tail But it's cut so thin that's so delicate in your mouth and then the beef shank
61
What makes beef shank special beef shank
62
or any shanks on animals are usually the most toughest part
63
But if you handle it with care and with technique
64
and a quick swoosh in the broth You're gonna get something that's super flavorful and super exciting to eat Mmm, there's so many combinations here.
65
So put some shank meat in first, we'll put some noodles in, add some green onions, and by the time your green onions hit the broth, they should be perfectly ready to eat.
66
This is pho at its best.
67
I want to come here every day now.
68
I want to open this restaurant in my living room.
69
I want to invite all the staff.
70
I want to put that kitchen in my kitchen.
71
This experience truly signifies how amazing Vietnamese food is and can be.
72
We have peaked early, my friend, but we have three more noodles we still have to try to manage to eat today somehow.
73
Most countries have their own version or interpretation of other countries' cuisine.
74
Cuba has a lot of Spanish tradition.
75
That's why we inherit the churros in our culture.
76
It's no different when it comes to Vietnam, recreating their idea of the perfect Thai noodle dish, called simply Bun Thai.
77
Customers from all over the world come to Vietnam and try her Bun Thai.
78
They go elsewhere, but they always come back here.
79
It's always that good.
80
Bun Thai is a flavor-packed soupy surf and turf that rings up at only about three bucks per bowl.
81
Oh, this is 60 pounds of Bun.
82
It's a white vermicelli noodle made from rice, but the Thai part, what is Bun Thai?
83
I made it like Thailand.
84
The broth is influenced by Thai.
85
It has a sweet and sour flavor known in Thailand.
86
Calvin's referring to tam yum, a Thai noodle soup famous for its pleasurably spicy and sour broth.
87
It's so satisfying.
88
Of course, in Vietnam, we took that recipe and we adjusted it on the sour and the spicy level.
89
The ingredients you'll find here are very local to the Vietnam area.
90
You have so many different ingredients in here, tons of fresh seafood, and then you have this.
91
What is this?
92
Fried fish cake is made with freshwater fish.
93
The fillets are then blended with spices and then made into a patty.
94
Ah!
95
Unnecessary.
96
I love doing that.
97
Mmm.
98
Mmm.
99
Mmm.
100
A little spongy, but great fish flavor and beautiful spices inside.
101
It's really good.
102
First, blanch the noodles.
103
Thin, soft rice vermicelli.
104
Next, an onslaught of protein.
105
Beef, fish cake, fish, fish, shrimp, squid, another shrimp, and clams.
106
Plug the bowl with a sweet and sour fish bone broth.
107
Garnish and serve.
108
Mmm.
109
Super fragrant, light, sugary, a little bit sour.
110
And then that really earthiness comes from the galangal root, which is a Thai root.
111
It kind of makes your throat feel good.
112
It's like a lossy.
113
Yeah, it's like a delicious cough drop.
114
Thai flavor.
115
We've got some of this beef.
116
That's fish sauce with sliced chilies.
117
I'll do the fermented chili sauce over here.
118
Very nice.
119
Little shrimpy.
120
Oh, dip in the broth?
121
I'm just gonna hit it in the broth.
122
How do you eat the shrimp?
123
With my mouth.
124
Ah.
125
Sweet, meaty.
126
Vietnam has some of the best seafood in all of Southeast Asia.
127
Absolutely.
128
This is what these noodles are all about right here.
129
It's a local fresh fish pot here in Vietnam.
130
You can taste the Mekong on the fish.
131
This is delicious.
132
This sweet sour broth is perfect for seafood.
133
There's no truer fusion than this.
134
It's like the abstract idea of Thailand put into a broth mixed with tons of seafood
135
and meat and sold for just a few bucks.
136
Delicious.
137
When it comes to noodles, what's better?
138
Handmade or machine made?
139
Our next chef seems to think the machines can conquer any nimble-fingered noodle handler.
140
In the comments section, you're gonna see Civil War.
141
I've come to Chinatown to find out.
142
Egg noodles.
143
This noodle, one of my absolute favorites, It dates back thousands of years.
144
Though widely known to be a Chinese creation, Italians and Arabs will tell you a very different origin story.
145
I can't say for sure, so let's see what the chef thinks.
146
There you go.
147
Well, there you go.
148
As much as folks in Vietnam love noodles, egg noodles don't appear often.
149
We see that so many noodles here have a rice base.
150
What is it that makes this noodle so different?
151
These noodles only have two ingredients.
152
They have flour and they have eggs.
153
What, like chicken eggs?
154
Chicken eggs.
155
I was leading it.
156
Like chicken eggs?
157
No, duck eggs.
158
Tucked away in a nearby alleyway, you'll find Mr. Han's fresh egg noodle laboratory.
159
His process for manufacturing machine-made noodles starts with wheat flour, duck eggs, and liwana.
160
Why duck eggs and not chicken eggs?
161
There's something in the duck egg that makes these noodles extra...
162
That's yai.
163
Elastic?
164
Extra elastic.
165
After 15 minutes of mixing, the dough is ready.
166
With this machine, they press the dough into sheets.
167
This process is repeated several times until they reach the desired thickness and texture consistency.
168
The moment has come.
169
They are squeezing the dough right now between two cylinders and it's about to go into the noodle press.
170
Oh, yes!
171
It is like raining noodles.
172
Can I put my finger in here?
173
Sorry, I don't know.
174
Sometimes I listen to the invasive thoughts I shouldn't.
175
Here in Saigon's Chinatown, you'll find a large Chinese-Vietnamese population dishing out generations-old traditional recipes.
176
And all it starts to do is create even more variety of food that you can experience when you're in this city.
177
When it comes to noodles, traditional means handmade.
178
So how do machine made noodles stack up?
179
Is there a difference between machine made noodles and hand pulled noodles?
180
Hand pulled noodles could never be as good as machine made noodles.
181
That is the claim of the century, holy cow.
182
Can the machine also put love into the noodles?
183
After pressing, boil for a couple of minutes, and they're ready for their sidekick, the wontons.
184
Back in the noodle lab, flat dough sheets are cut down to size and filled with minced pork, shrimp, crab, and fish.
185
Give them a little bit of a dip and pair them with the noodles.
186
Add bok choy, black pepper, a mixture of soy sauce and oyster sauce, white pepper, green onions, fried pork fat, and finally, a savory pork bone broth.
187
Mmm, if that tasted that good and that's a vegetable, just wait until we eat the noodles.
188
I'm very curious about this broth and so that's why I want to taste it.
189
Well, I got a great idea, let's taste it.
190
That logic follows, right?
191
It's a bit sweet, fatty, very rich.
192
It is simple and straightforward, but it's still awesome.
193
Not every broth to me has to be like a complex labyrinth of flavor.
194
Sometimes it can be like, oh, I know what that is.
195
It's delicious.
196
Look how big that is.
197
This wonton is reckless.
198
It's out of control.
199
It's morbidly obese.
200
Hey, not you.
201
You're body shaming me.
202
Not yet.
203
It almost slips down your throat like a slime.
204
It's like eating a little shumai, the density of the meat.
205
Not the same, but similar flavors and a similar texture to me.
206
Right here, not a noodle at all.
207
They cook these pork bones overnight to achieve peach-like softness.
208
The tendons become moist and delicious and you just peel it off
209
and whatever you get is what you get and people love it, right?
210
You know what?
211
It's a look of the draw.
212
Life is like a bone of chocolate.
213
Life is like a bone of chocolate.
214
Add broth, then top it with green onions and pepper to complete this epic side dish.
215
I'm gonna gnaw on it.
216
I love gnawing on bones.
217
Don't give me a joke right now.
218
There's nothing appropriate to tie.
219
There is nothing funny about that.
220
Fatty and delicious.
221
I flippin' love that.
222
The meat closest to the bone always has the most flavor.
223
This is the noodle right here.
224
Super controversial.
225
You were asking him what is better between a hand-pulled noodle
226
and a machine-made noodle and it seemed like he didn't even have to think about it.
227
He knew instantly that this is the superior noodle.
228
Go for it, go for it.
229
This bowl is perfect for a rainy day in Saigon.
230
Oh, I'm sorry, do you have like a different noodle that you eat depending on weather patterns?
231
What do you eat when it's foggy?
232
Flat noodles.
233
What about when it's sprinkling?
234
Ribbercelli.
235
What about when it's waning?
236
Mi-wank.
237
Fun.
238
I've had hand-pulled noodles, I've had machine-made noodles, I cannot pretend to be expert enough to tell you which is better.
239
The obvious go-to is like, oh, handmade is better.
240
It's made with a human's touch.
241
But, you know, there's advantages to machine-made too.
242
It's more efficient.
243
I like that every noodle is conform.
244
You like conformity.
245
Put me in a box.
246
Yes, comfort.
247
Guys, who wants to stand out?
248
For me, it's blend in or nothing at all.
249
Our next noodley dish is only known to true Vietnamese food lovers.
250
The star of this dish is actually right here.
251
This is called bò hò.
252
This bò hò was made with a generations-old recipe.
253
What you taste today is the same as what you would experience decades ago.
254
Boho begins with a broth made of beef bones, lemongrass, ginger, five spice, and annatto spice.
255
Next, add big chunks of beef brisket and tendon and let them stew slowly for hours, dissolving every last flavor crystal into its viscous broth.
256
It looks so awesome.
257
Delicious stewed beef inspired by French cooking, made with love and time.
258
Oh, and there's carrots too.
259
Prepare with Boho our noodle.
260
This is Hootiu, a soft, thick rice-based noodle.
261
After blanching the noodles with bean sprouts, fill the bowl with this thick, savory beef stew.
262
Imagine Ditimor stew times 10.
263
Would you call it a broth?
264
Would you call it a stew, a sauce?
265
I do call it a stew because there's meat in it.
266
I don't really call it a broth because there's no bones that are being used to make this dish.
267
Oh It's surprisingly light the Thai basil really helps cut a lot of
268
that richness really nice aromatic flavors vegan hot dog here we go
269
There might see of my mom put some carrots in a crock-pot
270
This looks incredible huge pieces of beef They kept all those twarts on there
271
that ordinarily would not be great unless you braise it for hours Super tender juicy and I mean you use it's just
272
It's so good.
273
I like how they didn't use very expensive cuts.
274
Those cheaper cuts tend to have more flavor.
275
Underneath everything we have The noodle.
276
So check out this beautiful sheen of this rich beef oil.
277
That stew just coats every strand of noodle here.
278
The noodle is super super soft.
279
It is kind of fun to slurp up.
280
When you put the soft noodles with that little kind of chewy grizzly meat, it's a nice combination.
281
Oh, take a look at this.
282
This is what I'm talking about.
283
This is just straight up tendon.
284
This is the Achilles heel of this cow.
285
That might be my top bite of the day right there.
286
So rich, gelatinous, gooey.
287
I'm gonna hit that with some noodles.
288
This stands in contrast to everything else we've had today.
289
It just has a completely different personality.
290
It doesn't care if you like it.
291
It feels like it's very confident in itself.
292
It's a little bit arrogant.
293
It has like a little body odor, but you're like, maybe that's what a man's supposed to smell like.
294
It's a very nice day today.
295
It's an incredible noodle selection that we've experienced.
296
Calvin, there's nothing left to do but the conclusion.

Appease.
300
Calvin, you've been to Thailand many times before.
301
Yes.
302
I'm not gonna tell anybody why you go there, But you did realize recently they also have food.
303
Not everybody goes there for sex changes.
304
It's very Chinese flavored.
305
May I say that?
306
Yeah, I think so, but China has so many flavors.
307
Ginger and...
308
and etc. You guys don't want to be bothered with me just defining all the different spices
309
that are in here just by wanting it.
310
I mean, I could.
311
Calvin, if you had to redo your childhood
312
and either you had to choose between your parents or a noodle machine that was capable of love...
313
Stop, stop, stop.
314
A noodle machine.
315
Hands down.
316
A noodle machine.
317
A noodle machine would give so much more love, even as a machine.
318
You got a deal.
319
I think pho is a dish that kids grow up with.
320
Before they go to school, their fathers would take them.
321
Not one, but two fathers.
322
Ooh.
323
Vanilla Frosty.
324
Oh, they just think their iPhone right there.
325
Boom, that is the end of the video.
326
Four noodles down.
327
Guys, big thank you to Calvin for joining me today.
328
You can find him on FKN Deliciousness on YouTube and on Instagram.

330

331
Thank you so much for watching.
332
I'll see you next time.
333
Peace!
334
Peace!
335
Dude, I'm really pregnant with a noodle.

Phương Pháp Shadowing Là Gì?
Shadowing là kỹ thuật học ngôn ngữ có cơ sở khoa học, ban đầu được phát triển cho chương trình đào tạo phiên dịch viên chuyên nghiệp và được phổ biến rộng rãi bởi nhà đa ngôn ngữ học Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Nguyên lý cốt lõi đơn giản nhưng cực kỳ hiệu quả: bạn nghe tiếng Anh của người bản xứ và lặp lại to ngay lập tức — như một "cái bóng" (shadow) đuổi theo người nói với độ trễ chỉ 1–2 giây. Khác với luyện ngữ pháp hay học từ vựng bị động, Shadowing buộc não bộ và cơ miệng phải đồng thời xử lý và tái tạo ngôn ngữ thực tế. Các nghiên cứu khoa học xác nhận phương pháp này cải thiện đáng kể phát âm, ngữ điệu, nhịp điệu, nối âm, kỹ năng nghe và độ lưu loát khi nói — đặc biệt hiệu quả cho người luyện IELTS Speaking và muốn giao tiếp tiếng Anh tự nhiên như người bản ngữ.
