Du lịch Ăn Uống Vũng Tàu Phần 2✔️Ngày 1

Welcome back to Zen Go channel.

And today Zen will visit~

Vung Tau, for the second time.

After the Vung Tau part 1 video, it has earned

lots of attention, especially from those who live

far away.

So, Zen's decided to visit Vung Tau once again

to introduce you guys

new and nice places. I hope that

this part will be more interesting than the last one.

Hello guys!

So, Zen has been traveling on the old path

which is

Nhon Trach. So today's schedule changed a little bit.

That is before arriving Vung Tau, Zen will

turn to Long Son

to go sightseeing.

So, when you're about 28 kilometers from Vung Tau,

you should keep riding

'til you reach a path

which is Tan Hai Commune.

So, as soon as you pass this toll road.

Actually this place is really easy to recognize. you just need to

pay a little attention while riding.

There, there is a sign board.

Turn right then you'll

reach it. I missed it earlier

so I decided to turn around to show you guys

so you won't miss it once you travel here.

Long Son is a famous place focusing on oysters farming

which has good quality.

There are even raft villages on the river, where you can have various kinds of seafood

while enjoying the breeze near the inlet.

Really interesting.

Favored by nature, Long Son owns a rich source of seafood.

It is considered as the province's seafood granary.

Long Son raft village, located next to

Long Son island, where the two rivers

Cha Va and Dinh River, flow by.

The local people made rafts to raise seafood, since then

the fishing village was formed on the river.

Raising seafood has been feeding

many generations of the villagers.

They raise many kinds of seafood,

yet more popular ones are oysters,

blood cockles, caged fishes.

These kinds of seafood have brought high economic value

to the villagers.

Thanks to the features of the weather and water source,

oysters raised here are very big, fat and provide

high productivity. To reach Long Son raft village,

you have to pass Ba Nanh bridge.

The path leading to the bridge is clear,

windy. The view is really attractive.

Before, to arrive Long Son island,

people had to use boats or rafts

to reach the other side of the river.

Standing on Ba Nanh bridge,

you can admire the river from high above.

Oysters.

There's more.

My, this is like a farm.

Oysters.

Miss, may I ask you which way leads to the raft villages?

The way to the raft villages.

Yeah, turn around, right?

Go there huh?

Head this way, there'll be a road.

Keep going forward

and you'll see them.

People usually visit Ben Da.

Ben Da raft village, this way right?

Ben Da huh?

Okay, it's called Ben Da. Alright, alright.

Ask people about raft vllages and they'll show you the way.

Okay, thank you.

Okay.

So, Zen just asked for the direction.

To reach Ben Da raft village,

you just keep going straight ahead.

There, this way.

Basically, after riding for a while, you'll reach here.

But it seems that

There are many choices. Dead end.

Hey, there's a kid. What is he inviting us?

Nam Thang oysters raft.

Hey, excuse me, (what was it called, babe?)

Ben Da.

- It's here?
- Yeah.This area is called Ben Da.

Ben Da has many rafts. This one is

Nam Thang.

Oh, is there any one else?

Yeah, there are also Duc Nho, Long Son raft,

and the one up there is Song Rang. What is it, babe?

- Pumii: Do we get over there by boat?
- Yes, by boat.

Zen: What do you mean "by boat"?

Pumii: It means you reach the raft by boat.

Ah, we don't get to eat here huh?

There're boats to take you to the raft.

You just have to pay for the food, anything else is all free.

Ah, understood. So?

So, Pumii?

Pumii: Let's get in, the rafts are all the same.

Okay, let Zen repeat the traveling route

so you guys can understand it better.

So, from Highway 51, you will turn right to the road

leading to Long Song. Go straight ahead

for a while, then you'll see a crossroad.

Turn right one more time.

Keep going for 3-4 kilometers, then

On your right, you'll see

uhh

Nam Thang raft village.

I keep forgetting the name of the raft village, so annoying.

So, now what?

Now you go straight to the bridge, there will be a boat to take you to the raft.

Oh, straight to the bridge, right? Let's go. So hot.

Basically, it'll be really beautiful if the water rises around here.

It's cool. Feels heavenly.

Hey, over there. I can see

Long Son raft village.

I don't know where Nam Thang raft village is. Oh, there. Nam Thang.

There. This place.

As you can see, those ones are crabs.

There, you see it?

There it crawls. It's not much, though.

There's even a tadpole.

Is it? What is that?

There, that one.

Look into the lens, lady!

There.

There, it looks like a tadpole huh?

Those two crabs are fighting.

There, those two. Look into the screen.

Easier to spot.

Ouch.

Only two of us huh?

As soon as reaching the island, you can

visit seafood rafts.

While visiting,

you can purchase fishes, seafood.

Just choosing, then the owner will pick them up immediately

and prepare a lunch spread for you.

They raise many kinds of fishes here.

Choose as you please.

There are cobias, sea bass, silver promfrets, groupers.

There, it took just a minute to reach here.

It seems like Zen is the first one here.

Right, there are two of us.

Sit on the chairs or on the floor?

Is there any difference?

Alright, let's sit here.

There are hammocks as well.

Can you recommend some special dishes?

It's my first time being here.

Here we have oysters, crabs, flower crabs,

basically most of them are seafood.

Mostly seafood.

For fishes we have cobias, silver promfrets, sea bass, groupers, eels.

This is where they raise fishes.

Hey, it's swimming.

There's dried fish.

Oh, these are flower crabs.

The coals are burning so bright.

These are shrimps.

These are oysters.

This is Zen's fish.

Yeah, cobia.

Do we marinate it before grilling?

Marinate with chili salt.

Oh, just chili salt then. Okay.

So we spread chili salt onto it as we grill, right?

Oh hey, how long has our raft house been operating?

Oh, 4, nearly 5 years huh.

As you can see,

they cultivate inside the raft.

On both side.

Okay, while waiting,

let's talk about the dishes and their price here.

Honestly, Zen feels it's a little bit expensive.

Zen doesn't know much about the

seafood market

like these, but I think the price is a bit much.

Does Pumii feel the same?

Am I right?

Even when we go to restaurants in the city,

the price isn't this much.

It's too much.

You can bargain if going to the market. But it's impossible to do that here.

But let me try the dishes

to check their quality.

I think the price is a bit high.

These are seasonings, chili peppers, limes.

Looking good.

This basket also looks

clean.

This is salt and pepper.

There, you guys might not know if I didn't tell.

This is

I don't even know what this is.

Ah, satay chili paste.

Fish sauce.

First of all, oyster porridge.

Give me some bowls, please.

There's no steam so it might not be really hot.

Burnt your tongue?

Lemme see.

The steam is coming up.

Oh, right.

Really.

Oh, what is that?

Baby oyster?

Right? What is this called?

So, the spoon is a little bit dirty.

They didn't wash it properly.

Zen is really

harsh about this problem.

Smells so good.

Lemme try some fish.

Its skin seems very tough.

Pumii, help me.

Quick.

Man.

Hmm.

Crispy skin.

Sweet meat.

Pumii, try it.

Fish dishes are always

Zen's favorite.

This is the first time that Zen sits

on a raft like this, to enjoy the food.

Before traveling here,

there was a news

like in August 2016, there was a raft in Ninh Thuan,

like these ones, it collapsed. So

Ba Ria Vung Tau authorities decided

to temporarily stop the rafts' operation

to examine and improve their quality. Stuff like that.

Okay, now that Zen's sitting here, the operation is back to normal.

And this Nam Thang raft house,

as Pumii said,

has been operating since 2013.

Right?

Right?

I don't remember if it was 2013 or 2003. I forgot.

Basically, Pumii looked it up on Google. She doesn't know much about it.

I have been having

porrige; it was okay, kinda bland.

Zen likes it bland.

The fist was fine. Did Pumii eat it? You think it fresh?

It was so-so.

So-so.

But the price is a bit expensive for a so-so quality.

We couldn't finish the fish. There was a little porridge left.

We had to take the leftovers away.

Thank you.

And the total cost

is

392 thousands.

400 thousands. That makes

200 thousands per one, huh?

It hurts so much.

Okay, now.

Let's finish

this spot and go home.

If any of you hasn't tried

eating on a raft, then

just come here and try, or come to any other one

to check their prices.

Pumii; They're all the same.

Really?

But I think the quality will be different.

Perhaps the price is not, but the quality will be different.

It's a lot. But you know, I expected that

it'd be better.

Get it?

It has something that once you eat, you'll feel "chaste".

Mouth and tongue-pleasing. Those words Zen has usually used.

They even sell dried fish as well.

- What kind of dried fish is this?
- Half dried croaker fish.

Oh.

Pumii: [He] carelessly dropped his glasses into the mud.

Now just sittin' there and clean it.

He even used water.

Looks so sad.

Shuddup.

You'll smell the mud once you wear them.

Hello guys, now Zen's gonna have grilled chicken.

That place is called

Son Thuy Ngu Quan. It is also called

Ba Tu. So, to get there

you'll have to go back against

the raft village.

It means from Highway 51, you'll turn right to Long Son, right?

Instead of turning right to the raft village,

You should turn left, then keep moving forward.

Until you guys

see a huge roundabout. Ah, before seeing it,

you guys will see a guide sign like this one.

There. This is a guide sign. Keep going straight and you'll arrive Long Son town.

If turning left, it'd be

Go Gang island, Vung Tau city.

This means after resting here,

we can go on this way to visit Vung Tau

without turning back to Highway 51.

Now, let's go.

Let Zen repeat.

in case you didn't hear it. So, Pumii said

this way is shorter than Highway 51

about 1,3 kilometers

and there's less dust and vehicles.

We're at the roundabout now, see?

Now we'll turn

turn right, it's over here.

(There are many kinds of artifacts in there.)

(People usually celebrate it during holidays.)

(The other day I watched a video, they

made banana cake

and tet cake as well.)

There it is,

Son Thuy Ngu Quan.

"Welcome.", man the sign looks old as hell.

So old.

That means it's been here for so long.

So, it's not that far to reach here

from Master Tran's big house, right?

It takes just a minute. Where to park our bike?

Let's get in.

The feeling when I first walked in here

is amazed

'cause it's so crowded.

(Chickens are sold by weight.)

By weight?

(Not by the whole or half of it.)

Oh, whole chicken. How much does one weigh?

(About one-and-a-half kilos.)

Is that so? Okay.

How much is it?

Ah, 190 thousands per kilo.

Miss, may I have a grilled chicken. A small one.

'cause there are only two of us. We've already eaten.

This is a famous diner so we decided to give it a shot.

If you get us a big chicken, we won't be able to finish it.

Is there anything else aside from chicken?

Grilled oysters?

Ah, okay. This should be fine.

You know what? Zen thought that it'd be crowded

but I didn't think it would be this crowded.

'Cause, basically, the path to get here

is quite deserted.

There were not many vehicles

on the way.

Yet, when we got in here, man.

Dozens of people.

Here, Zen just found out that these blue bags

will be put up there.

Man, they are all over the collars.

There. Here as well.

There will be two options for you guys; the first one is you cut up the chicken yourself,

the second one is asking waiters/ waitress to do it.

It seems that they do it quicker.

Clean, too.

(I'm the slowest.)

Is that so?

Maybe we won't be able to finish this. There'd be a bag for us to take it away, right?

What is this?

It's the scales.

The scales, huh?

Actually, when ordering,

we planned to order only chicken, but Pumii said

there is a rumor that this diner's sticky rice

is really tasty.

Yet, Zen and Pumii

don't like sticky rice.

Since it costs only 15 thousands so

we decided to order it.

Lend me a spoon.

Give me a spoon.

Yeah, it smells good. Like red sticky rice, correct?

Chewy.

Basically, Zen likes this taste.

It looks exactly like red sticky rice. I don't know if it is.

The smell is exactly the same.

Like red sticky rice.

If one not liking sticky rice yet enjoys it-

Wait.

Zen doesn't like savory sticky rice. This kind of sweet rice is okay.

Now, let's try the chicken. I didn't even get the chance to try it

yet Pumii ate it first.

How is it, Pumii?

Delicious. Tastes a little bit sweet.

However,

comparing this one to the one we had in Phan Thiet,

the chicken in Phan Thiet is still better.

Is that so?

What's the difference?

The other one has more special taste.

Or is it because we're kinda full now?

But the other one seems better.

Here's the story,

Zen had a trip to Phan Thiet, and about that one

Pumii told me to just leave the videos there to set up

It's just at the first stage.

So, I don't know

if they'd be on soon.

But, lemme tell you,

Zen had a trip to Phan Thiet, and when coming back, Zen visited a diner.

And honestly its grilled chicken is really, really delicious.

Pumii said that the chicken here is not as good as the one in that place.

So Zen's gonna try it now.

Lemme see.

Nothing. Keep eating.

Uhh, how to describe it?

Actually, it tastes

not as rich

exactly not as rich.

But here's the deal,

the diner in Phan Thiet

only those who know about it will visit

so its costumers are not so many.

Yet, for those which are not many, they make it pretty well.

However, in here, you see, it's bustling.

How to say it? It's like a formula

when...

the supply doesn't meet the demand, right?

The demand is more than the supply,

the quality will be reduced.

But it's not bad either. Really good, tastes alright.

It's acceptable.

(It's good, but not as good as the one in Phan Thiet.)

(It's alright.)

So it's quite unfair to compare them like this,

'cause they're two different places.

One is in Phan Thiet, one is in Vung Tau.

They're not located next to each other, right?

But what Pumii meant was to compare it to the

last time eating grilled chicken, which is that one.

So we took the chance to review it, not to mean anything else.

However, this place worths a shot.

The first reason is because it is crowded.

The second one is its tasty sticky rice.

The chicken is alright.

Ah, another one is it doesn't take long to get the food.

Just about 5 minutes, right?

We had out meals just about 5 minutes after ordering.

Hey, boy.

I see that there is a chicken stomach

but where are the intestines, liver, heart?

(It's in there.)

No, I don't see them. That's why I asked you.

(The organs?)

Yeah, we only have the stomach! (Does this dish include the internal organs?)

They're not in here.

I mean, does this dish

normally include the internal organs?

Then why did you say yes earlier?

Ah, so the dish also has the organs. Then

why is there only the stomach?

It's an internal organ too.

(It's a bonus.)

You know what I mean?

If the internals are not available, then why does it have the stomach?

If it has the stomach, where is the rest of the organs?

Huh?

Who is responsible for this?

Who has the right authority to answer me this question?

I was eating and there is the stomach, but the other organs

like the liver and heart aren't there.

('Cause they broke apart when cut.)

No, what I'm trying to know

is if a dish like this normally has them?

Yes, they're all available.

So they missed the organs when finishing grilling right?

'Cause I was eating and then I wondered where the other organs were.

Hello, guys!

After asking them, I just continued eating and then

I found the heart.

I found it. It's in the dish.

Magical.

But where's the liver?

I don't see it.

The heart.

Finally, we finished out meal.

377 thousands, for two.

If I have to rate it on a scale of... [10]

The food in this place- 7, huh, Pumii?

7, okay?

7.

The price is not cheap, yet not expensive either.

It's fine, maybe.

The atmosphere is spacious, chilling.

Kinda comfortable while eating.

Anything else?

It's just I'm so full now, I can't say much about it.

Because before visiting here, Zen

had already eaten in the...

the what?

Oh, yeah. Raft village. I keep forgetting those words.

Okay, if you have the chance,

you should try this place for once.

And remember,

stay hungry before eating. Don't be like Zen. I'm stuffed.

It's not accurate to evaluate.

Now we'll head to Vung Tau.

via the new way.

It is mentioned earlier in the beginning.

So, now Zen's gonna turn to the homestay.

Pumii found it.

Zen doesn't know anything bout it.

'Cause Pumii is responsible for

looking for accommodation. Its address is

60 Lane, Pham Hong Thai St.

Sixty what?

Look again.

60/54 and?

/8, okay.

This is An Yen Homestay.

Honestly, Zen didn't mean

to stay here.

Where did we plan to stay in?

(Sea La Vie.)

Yeah, Sea La Vie.

Pumii talked positively about it.

But it's full, so we'll stay here.

The alley was?

54. And then turn over here?

54.

It's 38. We have to turn back.

Yeah, I don't know if we have to move forward or not.

Let's try going straight ahead.

Where does it lead to?

58 huh?

54. This is No 57 Ngo Duc Ke St.

It's not the right way then. We have to turn back.

Down here.

60/44.

46.

What is this? It's 56.

Let's reverse then.

Back.

54/8 huh?

54/8. Here's 54/2.

54/6.

There it is.

(You two look for An Yen Homestay, right?)

We are finally here.

Now, I will

give you guys a tour around

to see what we have here.

We'll see my room later.

First of all, this is the path.

There are flowers on both side.

Let's skip this, okay?

On the right side, maybe it's a common area.

There are, like, chairs,

bowls,

chopsticks,

and... plants.

Hey, they even have a swing here.

Swing, chairs.

The bike blocks the way so I can't try it.

I'll try it later this evening.

Oh, there is a lovely fish pond.

Are you the owner?

Now, we can go this way.

The one you went past earlier.

This way is Ngo Duc Ke.

And on this side is-

Ah, this way is Pham Hong Thai. And this way is Ngo Duc Ke.

There is a shopping center on Ngo Duc Ke.

Has this place been operating for a long time, mister?

More than a yeah.

What do you do?

Me?

I do many jobs, one of them is

making videos on YouTube.

I film as I travel.

Commenting, evaluating the places that I get by.

Ah, is that so? It sounds fun.

Like, if people are interested, they'll

help this place grow as well, huh?

Hey, this sign looks so cute.

Who made this for you?

(My girl gave me when she came back from Thailand.)

Your daughter?

She's at the front side.

Ah, I see.

(The staff.)

Was that the one who opened the gate for us?

(No.)

This is the room key, and this is the gate key.

What if we come back late?

You can leave whenever you want.

Ah, when we come back, we just need to open then close it, right?

Or you can go this way. Just open the gate.

You can leave at any time. 'Till 1-2 AM is alright as well.

Oh, kinda free.

Is this,

the one I mentioned earlier, the common area?

For two, people only use this area.

This is for dining, huh mister?

Currently, there are 8 people.

So we'll use this area. There's an cooking area inside, too.

It's fully equipped here.

Yesterday, a group of people had their meals here.

So, now if you want to hold a party or something, just do it there.

Oh, what are the rules?

This place is really peaceful. It's just about

the curfew, and some other stuff.

It's really peaceful here.

You can hear roosters singing in the morning.

The weather's really cool here.

Alright, I'm gonna go rest. You take a rest as well, mister.

Thank you.

I'd been waiting for you guys since noon.

Yeah, we started late.

Try to check out

before 11 AM.

Ah, 11 AM.

'Cause I have to spend about 1 hour to let my guests check in.

I had been waiting since morning.

Normally I can wait for you guys 'till 2-3 PM.

Yet I have guests today.

Huh, tomorrow is an usual day, isn't it?

Ah, no. I have guests tomorrow.

If they wouldn't stay here, you could stay for the whole day.

24 hours whole.

Did you tell the woman about this?

No. Not yet.

Pumii.

Come over here.

Dear, since I hand over your room at 11 AM,

yet you guys arrived late, so

the next day

you guys'll check out at 11 AM, 'cause I have guests tomorrow.

You could stay if there were no guests.

Basically, please check out at 11 AM for me.

It's kinda inconvenient that there'll be more guests.

Pumii: It's fine.

There're kinda many guests so-

Like that room, for example, I can let them stay 'till 2 PM cause it won't be reserved tomorrow.

Yet this one is reserved.

They won't accept it if I let you guys stay till 2 PM.

That's what I want to tell you beforehand.

Okay.

So,

this curtain

looks so chintzy. What is this?

This is so melodramatic.

It gets more modern here.

Generally, they don't really

blend well with each other.

Oh, we have a

Nintendo Console here.

TV.

Fridge.

(Bottled water costs 7 thousands, soft drink costs 10 thousands.)

7 thousands for bottled, 10 thousands for soft drinks. There's the prices.

Lemme check it here.

There's the stove. But no pot or anything to cook, huh?

If you wanna cook, tell the uncle and he'll lend you some.

Alright, basically, this room also has

air-conditioner.

Air-conditioner and misting fan, too.

Lady and gentlemen, everything was fine

really fine-

Gentlemen- whatever men it is.

Until,

I turned this light on.

What is this?

Their sense of decorating is not really on point.

Lemme turn this one off.

So you guys can feel the mysterious atmosphere.

The art describes

pink and blue sea

standing for the harmony

the love of two.

Over here

is the whole world of modern art

from the 70s, 80s

Ah, no, 90s.

"The legend of 1900."

OK.

Zen hasn't read it, but heard from Pumii that

Netizens say this place

looks amazing as it's in Korea.

Korea.

Where, Korea?

Where is the Korea?

This is Pham Hong Thai street.

Going up there will be

Ben Dinh market.

Is it located on the left or right, mister?

Keep going until you see an intersection, then go straight ahead.

If you wanna buy cuttlefish directly from boats, keep going deep inside.

From the Ben Dinh market,

the boats land here.

Don't turn into the market.

Keep going straight.

The price is cheaper here.

And if you wanna go to the Front beach, then

turn left here,

here and here as well.

and you'll get there.

Front beach.

Front beach. When you see the beach, ask the people and they'll show you.

It's really complicated.

Basically, go to Front Beach Park,

and people will guide you.

'Cause it's really sophisticated when coming to the Front beach.

It's easier to look like this.

Hello guys! Following mister's guidance,

Zen has

reached Ben Dinh market.

So,

the map is kinda complicated, but actually, if you follow the address,

which means when you reach Le Loi Str

at No 450 or something,

you'll see the market immediately.

There, right in front of you.

Really crowded.

Ben Dinh market.

This market is

recommended by the mister, the home owner.

Things are cheaper here.

Right at the boats.

So diverse.

Oh, oysters.

So,

the market is pretty small. It takes just a while

to shop around. Lemme see what do they have here.

So many people here.

Oh, fishes.

- This one looks so weird.
- How much is it, miss?

Shrimps here, lady.

How much per one kilo?

140.

Hey, you like mantis shrimps right? There.

We had a quick view around here and... found nothing yet.

How to say it? There's nothing

diverse, adequate or bustling.

Where do we go now, Pumii?

Let's head to Xom Luoi market.

Let's give it a shot.

Razor shells.

After leaving Ben Dinh market, Zen

has arrived Xom Luoi market.

Its address is-

Go to No 33 Phan Boi Chau, Ward 2, Vung Tau City.

you'll see it. Basically, it's-

at the beginning of Phan Boi Chau street.

Here it is.

How bustling it is.

Zen will go deep into it to check out later.

Pumii, does Xom Luoi market have anything interesting?

It also provides seafood, but I heard that

there is one person processing seafood

called Miss Tu Happy.

Her dishes are really tasty.

Miss Tu Happy.

You can buy seafood, then ask her to cook them.

Ah, it's not "asking".

You pay her to cook the dishes.

Okay.

Alright, let's shop.

First off, there are so many shrimps.

Razor shells.

Clams.

Sharks.

Mantis shrimps.

The shrimps are so big.

Flower crabs. Oh they're crabs, right?

Fish.

They have grilled fish over there too.

Shrimps, cuttlefish. So many. Spotted babylon, too.

Fish eggs.

Flower crabs.

Mantis shrimps.

How much for the shrimps, miss?

Just 50?

Okay, 50 thousands per kilo.

So as you already heard, Zen just asked the price for one kilo of mantis shrimps,

and this lady here

said that they cost 50 thousands per kilo.

Yet, at Ben Dinh market,

the price was 100 thousands.

Maybe they think we are travelers.

But that is still unacceptable.

I mean, perhaps they assumed that we didn't know well about the price so

they named the price for 100 thousands.

Who knows.

Buy anything you want.

Then we'll go over there to have them cooked.

Where?

Miss Tu Happy.

Lemme find some flower crabs.

Okay, let's head down there to see if there's anything else.

Oysters.

Crabs and flower crabs again.

These are dried fish.

Why so crowded?

Let's ask this lady.

How much for the spotted babylon, miss?

600? Oh my.

What about the shrimps?

It's cheap.

I just bought them for 650 back there.

Here they sell them for only 600.

These ones?

These?

For hansel,

I'll sell them for 300 per kilo.

These ones have the best quality.

How much are these?

80.

Who knows.

Over there they sell them for 70, here is 100.

Back there they sell for 70, here is 100.

We're asking for these ones' price.

These ones cost 50, huh, miss?

100.

Give me one kilo of these.

A kilo?

Most of them are shells.

Here is No 28, Nguyen Cong Tru.

Miss, how much for the callapa?

Miss.

How much are the callapa?

80.

The price here is higher than the one back there, huh?

What are these?

(Flower crabs.)

Flower crabs huh?

How much per kilo?

150 for the octopuses, huh?

How many of them for one kilo?

Can you lower the price?

(It's fixed. It's all the same for other stalls.)

Alright, let's go for another round.

Pumii, how much?

150.

Alright.

Let's check over there.

How much is it for one kilo of those shrimps?

140.

How much did they say it back there?

150.

Why is it so expensive out there?

How much, miss?

90.

90 per kilo.

You want it?

Get me half a kilo.

Half a kilo of razor shells.

So as you can see,

from Ben Dinh market to all around Xom Chieu market-

Xom Luoi market-

my bad,

Xom Luoi, the prices are various,

so if you are not so sure

about it, take your time to look around.

Now let's head to Miss Tu

and have her cook, 'cause Pumii said

Pumii's friends told her that Miss Tu cooks really well.

Let's try.

Okay. Now. Zen has arrived Miss Tu.

Tu Happy, there.

Are you filming?

Don't do it.

Okay.

I may get caught.

I may get caught for this.

I'm just making traveling videos, mister.

(Then tell us first.)

What do you normally do for these?

Roast with salt.

Stir fry with chicken.

Garlic stir fry these ones, roast with salt these ones.

You like them roasted with tamarind?

Do you?

Will it taste weird?

I don't know, I'm asking you.

Or garlic stir fry or stir fry with water spinach?

Stir fry with water spinach, then.

(We have water spinach, too.)

You buy 'em for 1 kilo?

How much did you buy?

Half a kilo.

Yeah, just half a kilo.

30 then.

1 kilo of mantis shrimps, right?

40 it is.

I thought you were Miss, turns out you're Mister Tu huh?

How did your friends say that they were Miss Tu?

Then is Miss Tu here, mister?

Here she is.

(Hello, Miss Tu here.)

That is Mister Tu.

This chubby one is

the chef.

This Mister Tu here is sous chef.

This is the result after boiling.

Have to slice really hard, then cut into cubes.

Really hard.

You're just washing your hands!

I got it already.

Miss, when is the market open and closed?

For who doesn't have a place to stay it'd be about 5-6.

For those who do, i'd be

'till 9 to 10, perhaps.

In the morning?

In the morning, it'd be-

at about 4-5.

Usually,

it would be late for an hour.

It's garlic.

What do we do with these flower crab claws? I forgot.

Salt-roast.

Now for the razor shells.

They're still preparing the mantis shrimps.

So,

the calappa is finished.

Now it'll be scooped into the container.

So

Smells so good, huh?

Very careful.

They're afraid that the heat will melt the container.

Right?

Miss Tu is dealing the price with the customers,

describing something.

So, the total cost for the food processing

is 95 thousands.

One calappa,

it's salt-roasted, right?

Stir fried razor shells with water spinach.

Mantis shrimps,

salt-roasted-

Ah, garlic roasted.

Since Zen bought them each for half a kilo,

they're just about

15,20, 30.

Garlic roasted mantis shrimp is 40 thousands.

40 thousands.

Stir-fried razor clams with water spinach is

30. And, what is it,

calappa

roasted with salt, is 25.

Now, after

having the processed food, Zen has come to the embankment near the beach to eat.

She's cleaning it.

After cooking,

they also

gave us the sauce.

Really nice of them. Chopsticks, too.

Careful, don't spill the sauce.

Put some tissues there to let it soak.

Put it in, put in.

This is Zen's most favorite.

Zen's gonna try this one first.

The sauce is so thick.

So?

Is it OK?

Razor clams are sweet,

water spinach - sweet.

How's the seasoning?

Generally,

it's kinda bland.

Like,

the mister made it bland so we can use it with the sauce, not

the savory kind of thing.

Like, if you don't have them with the sauce-

lemme try it.

It's like, not really bland

yet it has some kind of flavor, just a little bland, not so savory, rich.

It has to be used with the sauce.

That's why they gave us the sauce.

Try the calappa.

Salt-roasted callapa looks good as well.

The mister smashed it out for us.

Right.

Your hair looks so messy.

Let it be, eating is more important.

How is it?

Like the previous one.

The flavor is the same?

Basically, it's like

the taste is balanced.

It's not

too savory, or too sweet or anything.

Like, it's all at the right amount.

Zen likes this.

My friends say that the garlic stir-fried mantis shrimps is-

- The best?
- Yeah.

I haven't even finished the calappa!

Kinda easy to peel.

To the shrimps,

you guys will peel the shells off.

Since they cut it from both side of the shrimps, it's kinda easy for you to peel.

So? Dip it in the green pepper sauce and try it.

No, this one tastes well without the sauce.

I like it like that.

Yet, let's try dipping it.

Lemme peel it off first.

Mmh, this green hot sauce is excellent!

Let's go back there and ask them for another cup.

If I remember correctly, she also sells the sauce.

I saw them on display.

Which one tastes the best in the three dishes?

Zen doesn't like mantis shrimps

But, I'm pretty amazed this time, to be honest.

Generally, Zen likes the shrimps most,

'cause normally I don't really enjoy them.

But this time, they taste really OK.

And the razor clams,

basically, I've always loved them. Amazing, no need to say more.

They're fresh, right?

Yeah, they are.

The flavor is balanced, frugal.

Like, once you eat them, you'll feel peaceful.

There's so much for one package.

Lemme see,

half a kilo of the clams costs 45,

the processing fee is 30. This dish costs 75 thousands, then.

The total price for these, 200 what, Pumii?

210.

You know what we're missing?

A bottle of Strongbow.

Yeah, beer.

We can buy some beer, I forgot.

You guys know what?

I have been eating since 6:30, it's 8 now

and we've just finished these.

It's horrifying, to be honest.

There are only two of us, yet we bough the food for like

4 or 5 people. Really exhausting.

So, Zen's at the homestay now.

We decided to go back home. If we stayed there to have all of these

we might catch a cold.

And when we got back, we saw some people

making food or something like that.

Now Zen'll go over there and ask them for permission

to film something for you guys, alright?

So, these guys are cooking,

preparing for a dinner spread.

Lemme see, there are

grilled dishes.

Most of them are grilled, right?

If you guys remember, in the morning, Zen said that this area

is for common activities. Then

now is it actual footage.

Oh, they're cooking rice as well.

What is this called?

Kimbab.

Seaweed

rice roll.

There's eggs.

You guys really go for it huh.

Cooking rice noodles?

Yeah.

Careful, it's hot.

One of the amazing things

in this homestay is

the game console.

It's not just for display.

Yeah.

There's something wrong with the screen; it keeps flashing, you guys won't be able to see it.

Right?

Zen's just got up, and

now I remember that I hadn't

made a statistic

for yesterday's

total cost.

'Cause in the first video about Vung Tau, Zen didn't do this.

Yet, I did it in the one about the Da Lat trip, and

many of you were interested. So,

for this second time, I'll do it again.

Now,

After a day in Vung Tau,

Breakfast, 55 thousands.

Visiting Nam Thang raft village, 382 thousands.

Chicken at Ngu Son Thuy Quan, 377 thousands.

That means in one noon, Zed ate at the Nam Thang raft

and the chicken as well.

I was so full.

There were lots of food,

yet only two of us.

Refueling, 50 thousands.

Then Zen went to the market in the afternoon,

to buy half a kilo of calappa claws, 40.

Cooking it was 25.

Mantis shrimps, 50 thousands. Garlic stir-fry it, 40.

Razor clams, 45 for half a kilo.

Then stir-fry it with water spinach, 30 more.

The sum of those was 210,

for the clams.

Drinks, 40 thousands.

There are bottled water at the homestay, too.

We took 2 bottles, 14 thousands.

And 1 bottle of sarsi for 10 thousands, for Pumii.

I'll make her pay later.

So-

Ah, if we add the money for staying at the homestay, 500 more,

it will be

1.638.000.

That's huge. That's a lot.

That's because we spent too much on eating.

Yet there's only two of us, so the costs rises really high.

In one noon and we had eaten in two places,

the food was plenty in both places.

We had to bring them home, even now we haven't finished 'em.

We brought a part of the fish back at the raft village.

It's still in the fridge.
