Welcome to the street food dollar menu.

Today, me and my dude Long are gonna take

you all around Sai Gon eating 10 different street foods for under a buck. Let's do it.
You won't believe how far you can stretch 1 dollar right here, in Viet Nam largest
city. Sai Gon has so many options when it comes to mouth-watering tasty treats, but
today will focus on street food that is food served on sidewalk and streetside, cooked
on the spot, is quick and affordable, from savory to sweet and sometimes even overall
unusual.

Well you know, Im a big fan of a lot of streetfood, except for this one, because I don't
feel like eating, you know, like a little baby thing. It's time to see Sai Gon's ten
streetfood under 1 dollar.

Food one: Spring roll. Coming in at 25 cent each, the spring roll starts with freshly
moisten rice paper, then top with pork, shrimp, rice noodle,..spring onion, then roll
tightly and serve with peanut sauce. What's one of the very cool things of Vietnam is
all of the streetfood right down here, people like hold up on their bikes and stop to get
some food. Spring roll is probably one of the most Internationally recognized
streetfood from Vietnam. People know Pho, they know Banhmi, and they know the
Spring roll. Do you think the spring roll is deserving the top spice? I would say yes.
It's gonna be in a top, like top 10 most delicious Vietnamese food. Alright!
Volunteering to joining together right now, we got the sauce here. What happens? She
said the... is nicer shape. It looks nicer. Oh dip dip dip and cheers. ...noodle, crispy,
green in there and ... really fresh. The sauce is salty, is thick, is peanuty, is awesome.
That's streetfood 1, and we have 9 more to go. Let's keep going.

Food 2: Che. Costing 60 cent per cup, this is a frozen Vietnamese desert that can
includes dozens of ingredients. Or order today will include black bean, white bean,
mung bean puree, ... suger, water chest nut with green jelly covering, coconut cream
jelly, coconut milk and ice. Here we have a mix, Ice, with the coconut milk does
something special to the ingredient ... Chuoi. So it gains cool texture. We're gonna
make it in the evening. Just sweet? It's just like mellow sweetness. I think the most
special thing of this one is this one. Inside of stuff here is the water chest nut, and it's
colded by the cabioca flour. Cool in and the outside, and the mix is almost snappy
crunchy on the inside. I like this. You can drink it, you can eat it... It's really cool.

With just getting one buck, and after eating that desert, Long and I has been SaiGon
turtle lake, where every afternoon, dozens of sidewalk venders, bring the mobile
cookery. Office worker or students like come here to relax, hang with friends and
grasp some quick, affordable food, which brings us to food 3: Banh Trang Tron.
Coming in at about 1 bowl dollar, this mixture starts with rice paper and beef jerky,
then Vietnames corilandor, papaya, quail eggs, sweet jerky made from ... a squizz of
citrus, sweet sour sauce and chilly oil. This would get a good shaken and ready to eat.
And honestly, when you look at it, it kinda looks like a recycling Pho paper, but it
tastes a lot better. Well you know, rice paper is abundant, so we don't know what else
we can do apart from Spring roll, so we create a new way to eat it, so we add a lot of
ingredients inside and make it awesome like this. Let's go for it, right. So really what
you have here is just a bag full of flavors and textures. It's like all kinds of different
chewiness. It's sweet, is salty, is spicy, .... tried this and his called it Vietnam in a bag
and I agree with that.

Food 4: shaking spicy mango, one cup for about 1 dollar. This starts out innocent
enough with mango and a bit of sugar, but then bang out fish sauce, shrimp salt and
freshly minced chillies. This street side delight was invented very rêcntly creating,
creating what you could call: a mango revolution. This's spicy? yeah. A spicy fruit.
I've never had like that was intentionally made spicy. Im just going for it. Here we go.
Wow, that's a.. I didn't expect this from fruit. It's fruit. But this fruit is trying to be
tough, a bunch of spiciness, saltiness. Yes, makes for the natural sweetness like that ..
much more intense than I expected. I would like to scream soft, the shrimp sauce.
They added together to make it like savory and salty. This is a way to go. This is a
fruit with a punch.

Food 5: Bắp Xào. Costing just under one dollar this simple but tasty dish starts with
corn sauteed and margarine then add small dried shrimp peaces, sugar and spring
onion fried till crispy and add a little bit of chilli sauce on the side. You know, I
started knowing about this one-liners a long time ago. It tastes awesome. Try it, okey,
so we've got some shrimp pieces in there, spring onion. Yeah, I'm gonna dip.
Savoring, a little bit of sweetness. This chilli sauce is almost like the ketchup of chilli
sauces. Yeah, it's like sweet and tangy. I mean every single dish they have like chilli
sauce, the margarine tasted with sugar. I don’t know. It’s just done something for me.
It feels like junk food, good junk food, and luckily, this meal can last a long time,
because they give you a tinu like icream tasting spoon. It’s gonna take you at least a
hundred bytes. Yeah.

Food 6: Quail eggs with tamarind sauce coming in at about one dollar. This is one of
the most unusual or should I say unique street foods I’ve come across in Vietnam.
Starting with minced chillies garlic and oil then a heaping scoop of developed quail
eggs – Quails that have developed in the egg, then were hard-boiled before reaching
maturity, then splash a bit of tamarind sauce and morning glory, plate it and top it
with Vietnamese coriander and fried onions. One of the most interesting street foods I
have seen in Sai gon, maybe in my life, is much like a balut which a lot of people
have heard of, which is like the develop duck egg. Okey, especially popular in the
Philippines, but they eat here, too. Well, they do the same thing for quails. Do you
like this one? Honestly not. Im a big fan of a lot of street food except for this one cuz
I don’t feel like eating, you know, like little baby things. Have you ever eaten a baby
carrots? So you don’t like eating the little baby thing, I understand. Will you try one
with me, just one? Yes…. I …will. Yes, by the way this guy’s a hero. He obviously
doesn’t want to do it, but he’s gonna have one. Oh here we go. We have our big juicy
fight, so we’ve got the quails feat. Let’s go for it buddy. Cheers. How are you feeling
right now/, Long? It’s so weird. We don’t have water or anything here for you either.
You’re doing great. That’s some crispy in this in there. I don’t know if it’s like a …
natural Chris penis ínide crunchiness. But the flavour is outstanding a sweet and a
little tart. This is why I always say never doubt Viet Nam, even if something looks a
little intimidating. For me, at least the flavors have always been outstanding. Cheers
to that!

Food 7: Chinese meatballs. Costing about 1 dollar simple and to the point. These little
pork balls wrapped in an intensive lining are thrown on the grill then paired with
Vietnamese coriander, chilli sauce, mayonaise and papaya. It’s like different from all
the types of small and fish ball. I’ve been all across Asia, and I put many types of
balls in my mouth: chicken balls, fish balls and here we have pork balls. Yes, cheers.
Oh good, it’s delicious. It’s sweet and tasty, its fatty exploding with like juicy
fattiness

After this Turtle lake feat, Long is bringing me to Saigon Chinatown to smaple some
chinese delights in the afternoon. Right outsides of Saigon university, dozens of food
vendors can be found and we’re here for food 8: Há Cảo. Coming in at about 1 dollat,
these sellers will prepare their perfectly wrapped dimsum at home, toss them in a
steamer and bring them here to sell. Our Há cảo will get topped with soy sauce, chilli
sauce, Vietnamese coriander and fried onion. Since we’re in Chinatown, we’ve got
something China inspired. Pronunciation on fleek, about a gallon and a half af soy
sacue and then their chilli sauce. Yeah, we better have not yet almost think it’s so
easy to hit. Thank you, oh no

Foo9, sủi gìn. Costing about 85 cents. Another Chinese inspired classic still in
Chinatown just down the street. We’ve come across this beautiful crispy creation,
starting with sliced and friend rice cake mixed with the fried agg, top with sautes,
spring onion and shredded papaya. That’s really good notation. Did you study a lot?
75 cents, finally to end the night with the bang were headed to Bui Vien – The party
street of Sai gon for eight whopper of a meal. This treat starts with a mound of sticky
rice, soy sauce, sautee, spring onion, liver pate, fried onion, quail egg, pork floss,
chinese sausage, picked carrot and radish and chilli sauce. He’s come to point in this
treat of wild craziness, construction or maybe that some new kind of terrible music I
don’t know about it. This thing is loaded with topping. This meal is just like pure
calories. I love Chinese sausage and let’s go for it. Experience Vietnamese food for
more ìnormation on one trip check out the link in the description down below. I will
see you next week. I’m so full. I can’t do it anymore. Oh stop recording it!
