Your Dad is Super cool
You have a cool and supportive dad!
this is very true
We, Vietnamese, don't usually eat Canh Chua by itself. We have it with rice or vermicelli noodle. When you eat Canh Chua by itself is similar to eating hamburger patty without the buns. You can eat just the burger patty, nothing wrong with that but if you include it with buns, lettuce, tomato, ketchutp; it is whole new experience. Next time, try it with rice and eat it like Vietnamese in order to compare if you should eat Canh Chua by itself.
LOL was going to say "Where's the rice?"
True. But why don't the restaurant give them rice though???
@@dorichardtran598you have to ask for it and pay extra that’s why
I wish I have good relationship like this with my dad.
Yeah, is that look like this guy that I know but the guy I know is younger and he’s tall like that too but I think his that look like an older version of that guy so I would probably think his dad is nicer because the other guy likes to drink a lot
You just have to make it happen.
Ca' bo^ng lau = Cat Fish ...This soup We eat with white rice
You need to eat it with white rice to balance the taste cause the soup is strong.
Cá lóc is called snakehead fish. Vietnamese only use this kind of fish in the countryside. But in fancy restaurant this soup is cook with Swai steak fish.
Actually, swai/basa (bông lâu) is for poor people. In Nha-Trang we cook sour soup with cá mú (rock cod or grouper).
@@ki5ngau ca mu or "grouper" is for rich people. Ca bong lau is for regular middle class. Ca loc is for poor people. It's cheap and can find everywhere in the countryside.
Catfish is the best fish for canh chua
You're a good son. Making me missing my son, but unfortunately my son has been gaslighting by her mom.
It's great that you share fish head with your dad. I feel like most American or westerner are so afraid of eating fish head and eyeballs. My favorite part of the fish are the eyeballs. Most of my American friends have never try VN food so when they try it, they really enjoy it. It's nice to share our culture with other people. Food is a wonderful experience and should be shared with friends.
haha I usually let my gf eat the eyeballs she loves them
Hi TYLER,
Its nice of you to say that your girLfriend's Mom cooks this CANH chua better than this restaurant.
in Viêt nam, the Viêtnamese often cook Canh chua and CÁ Lóc together.
Most Viêtnamese call CÁ Lóc " snakehead. Fish", PLease correct me if i'm wrong.
Thank you TYLER for another good video.
And one more thing TYLER, when you go back to Sài gòn, could you pLease continue to make the
"GOOD MORNING Vietnam video" series, because "Good morning Viet nam" has ALWAYS been
my favorite videos to watch.
Thanks TyLer, you and your father have a great day.
Love Canh Chua with a bowl of hot rice 😋
Sounds good and I like to skim off the fat from the soup
Ca Loc in English is snake-headed fish. The fish in the sour soup you ordered is catfish.
It's rare for a non-Vietnamese to be able to speak Vietnamese. The first employee should have graciously replied in Vietnamese. I recently went to Montreal, Canada where a lot of people are bilingual in English and French. In the past I didn't even try speaking French because I knew they would reply in English. This trip I was stubborn and committed to speaking French. People replied in French and those that didn't eventually yielded. Please don't apologize, but be proud of your Vietnamese language skills. Keep on keeping on in Vietnamese!👊✊
I think that young man does not speak vietnamese even thou he is one, very common these days. kinda of sad.
@@user-hw2kj6ir1i I can understand not speaking Vietnamese fluently, but he works in a Vietnamese restaurant. How can he communicate with guests when half the menu is in Vietnamese? In Canada all the employees in Vietnamese (regardless of age) restaurants speak Vietnamese.
Watching your videos makes me hungry. LOL Jim in California
You’re spot on. Canh chua is a traditional việt soup, especially for southern miền Tây. It’s a light and healthy soup supposedly. I think cá lóc is snakehead fish but not sure. Btw the waiter should’ve served you with a separate bigger “soup” spoon. Great video as always!
Hello to Bentleys,
This place does not specialize in this dish, it’s a com tam place, u gotta go to hot pot spot in Garden Grove, lil Saigon , Bolsa, cảnh chùa by itself unusual, need a lil rice w it 😂
Enjoy rest of ya day 🤚✌️
The soup should be eaten with noodles or rice. And Cá Kho Tộ is also a perfect match with the soup. Of course with rice and noodles as well.
Hi, Mr Tyler. Next time trying the cat fish soup with white rice 🍚. You will love it. You are right about the staffs. I ate a lots at restaurants in little Saigon and not too many restaurants with friendly staffs. There are more friendly staffs in Vietnam restaurants. Love your videos 😊
Tyler walks into a restaurant in the US and orders like he is in Vietnam. We usually sit down first here. 😊
Haha true
You can eat canh chua with rice noodle or rice. It's delicous!
For me the súp same like not really good “ wrong restaurant, if you go in to more st , up to Brookhurst st and Edinger or bolsa st , so much good Vietnamese restaurants , the súp you eat there’ must have rice noodles come with, but any way, I happy to see you and dad enjoy your meal and enjoy your day as much you can 🤗❤️’ love you all “
Snackehead fish sour soup 🥣 “ canh chua cá lóc “… eating with rices 🍚
“
Yummy soup 🍲 😋. Your Vietnamese is so good. Handsome dad and son. Thanks for sharing 👍 😊 💙💙💙
Thanks!
Thank you!
You guys just ate a big bowl of noodles, of course you’re not gonna eat the soup with rice. Y’all already got your fill of carbs. I’m Cambodian American and grew up eating cảnh chùa too as the province my family is from borders Vietnam. I also understand some Viet and tried learning it. I think your Viet is awesome! I was just in the area to eat bánh mì for lunch. There’s a really good bánh mì place with a drive through called Carrot and Daikon Bánh Mì. Hay wah! I listen to Việt radio everyday when I drive home from work. I only took 1 semester of Vietnamese at Golden West College. Hope you had fun in the States bro! Ngon lắm! Mien Tay ơi! You know this dish is from Mekong delta right?
Damn. Your dad is jacked!!!
Watching your video making me wanting to go back to Vietnam.
I need to eat that with white rice 🍚
Ok.. we’re here based on your video lol. Ordered the same as you (got the combo). We’ll see! 🤞🏻
Verdict.. 8.5! Delicious! Yes, we’ll be back. Thanks for the recommendation 👍🏻
This place is "Cơm Tắm Đào Viên", they are specialized "Cơm Tắm" which is "Broken rice" dish. For "Canh Chua" you should go to a seafood restaurant, they have fresh fish for the "Canh Chua", ex: Tan Cang Seafood restaurant on 1st street and Newhope in Santa Ana.
Hehehe.. You came in Com Tam restaurant and eat Canh Chua...But You need to eat this steam rice Tyler. Snakehead fish is Ca Loc. Wish you have Have Fun with Dad.
Nothing wrong with that if they have good canh chua
Ofcourse it's OK, as you said IF you know Canh Chua is good.😂
in America canh chua they use cat fish not cá lóc (snake head fish). Lẩu usually eats with bún
Snake head fish sound cooler than cat fish tho!
The waiters are all guys, they don't know what they are doing. Lol, lol. Where are the noodles or rice? 😂😅😊
Lmao! Dang! 😂😂😂
it looks like you are preparing for your dad to live in VN long term :)
Your Vietnamese is impressive 🙌
Very very impressed with your Vietnamese 😊
Cá lóc is snake head, native to south east Asia. Viet Nam only inland people eat snake for spyr soup, souther people tend to cook with basa. And in coastal city like Nha-Trang, we cook sour soup with cá mú (rock fish or cod).
Your dad looks like your big brother, so young!
Hair dye can do miracles. 😂
next time you're back in LA, take your dad to these 2 places, Brodard for nemnuong, and Oc & Lau for snail and many other seafood dishes.. And if you like lobster, go to New Canton to get lobster with XO sauce!
Cá lóc is Snakehead fish in English
You must have rice with canh man 😂… like peanut without butter
This soup is usually accompanied with clay pot fish. Canh chua cá kho tộ or thịt kho tộ.
Try Ngoc Suong restaurant for lunch. They have very good Vietnamese dishes and canh chua too. Usually order a couple of regular dishes and a soup pot. And some rice.
Try Brodard in Fountain Valley for their Spring rolls.
7:20 Cá bông lau (Pangasius krempfi)
Snakehead fish tastes like a trout. Often they uses trout in place of snakehead when you are in America. In most cheaper places, they use catfish. BTW, you guys were eating it wrong. That soup was seasoned to be eaten with white rice. The white rice mellow out the salty sour taste a little bit.
looks delicous, i want those. it would be great to eat with some rice. That fish you eat is called Catfish
You and dad, actually looks like brothers 😂
WE USUALLY HAVE CANH CHUA WITH RICE.
Damn. Dude. Your Vietnamese is pretty good. Better than my Vietnamese.
Anthony Bourdain looks great bros ❤😊😅
Dad dips in fish sauce and then dips in soup which erases the saltiness. Might as well not dip, lol
Mẹ bạn chắc người Việt Nam! Bạn nói tiếng việt rất giỏi,cảm ơn bạn chia sẻ video này rất hay mình rất thích 👍❤️👏💯👋hẹn gặp lại bạn video mới
He look like your older brother!.!. LOL!.!.
You're suppose to eat it with noodles or rice because the soup is too rich. Also Ca Kho To or an salty side dish balances out the sourness perfectly.
Go to Itango next to Ramada hotel in Garden Grove. Everything there is good.
Canh chua is definitely an acquired taste. Growing up my mom love them, and I hate them, but for some weird reason my family keep having them, i would said they typically make it once or twice a week! (grandma also make a killer canh chua). People typically use them as an after meal cleanser (rice + something else, then the canh).
When you take that to go, the meat and veggie should go in one carton. And the soup in the other one. The staff seem pretty useless. They didn't bother to respond in Vietnamese when you speak in Viet to them, didn't offer to help when customer are struggling with taking stuff away, and just general laziness (should have been more proactive by offering rice or something when ordering canh chua). The one good things I see is one of the waiter makes the effort to find the English name translation for the fish.
Cá lóc is snake head mud fish or steel head mud fish. Next time, when you come back to Little Saigon - try Phoholic.
definitely need to order a side of rice next time. Otherwise drinking/eating by itself is a bit sour. Usually cooked with catfish, but any fish with less bones is better.
Thiếu cơm , chắc nhà hàng họ quên 😂👍👍👍
depends on how strong your stomach is, you could be heading to the restroom soon after consuming the sour soup
As Vietnamese, we never eat this soup as you did. You must eat with steamed rice and a salty dish like thit kho or ca kho to balance the taste.
I prefer the restaurant ambience in Vietnam to Little Saigon. Toi thich cam giac nha hang ben Vietnam hon ben My.
In America canh chua always cook with cat fish.
Bạn có thể ăn kèm với bún hoặc mì gói rất ngon☺️
Last April, I went to this restaurant during my trip to America.
In America Vietnamese restaurants are only use fresh catfish for canh chua brotha
I love it
Canh chua can eat with rice or noodles. People don’t eat canh chua by itself. With that hot pot you should eat with noodles.
You got to eat it with rice or vermicelli
you got to have some noodle with the canh chua
Your Dad looks damn fit!
he is
canh chua phải ăn với cơm chứ😊
It’s much better with a bow of rice.
need some rice with that soup.
May I have a box to go = Xin cho mot cai hop de mang ve
That Still Dre quote ahaha, nice one Tyler, glad to see you're doing fine!
Classic
Cá lóc means snakehead fish.
Brotha please made a video what is the different Vietnamese food in little Saigon in California and Saigon in Vietnam ( price quality and service) thanks brotha
Are you trying to Vietnamized your dad or something? Lol❤
He’s just trying to share a new dish with his dad and create content because a lot of people say they like his dad
Haha maybe
That soup is a hit or miss for me. Some restaurants make it too sour. But yea, usually you eat the soup with rice or vermicelli.
This is Amazing Snakehead fish soup!with rice. I hope you’re like it. Thanks your Daddy like Vietnam food.👍👍👍😍😍😍🥰🥰🥰❤️❤️❤️❤️🇺🇸🇺🇸🇻🇳🤪😜😛
Cá lóc is snakehead fish
That looks delicious 😋 But knowing me I’ll probably swallow a fish bone lol
Việt Nam! Có thực đơn phong phú và ngon, hi vọng sẽ yêu thích
Just subscribed. 😊
This dish should be served with steam rice. Also, random restaurant like this won’t have the best canh chua. You should try oc va lau
Cá bông lau: catfish, lẩu canh chua= sour soup hotpot which has bạc hà, cà chua, giá, ngò gai, rau om … you should ask them to do it, man.
Ca loc = snake-head fish, which is delicious for Canh Chua.
"Ca Loc" in VN aka Sneakhead fish.
Delicious sour soup with 🍍
It's great to see you exploring Little Saigon with your dad.
It's 6 pm in California on Thursday May 16th. I'm craving for canh chua ca loc but can't find it in any Vietnamese restaurants here. 😢
Nice
Hai cha con giống như hai anh em …
I learned some new Vietnamese from you today. Thank you.
your dad looks like gigachad =)))
Bro, I have to look him up to see what he looks like
Snakehead - cá lóc
Just say a box to go 😁
Why didn’t they give you rice with the soup? BTW, dad is easy on the eyes too lol just saying……😂
snake head fish is ca loc
lol in america everyone just stares at the camera.
Well, the surprise and also some of them might not want to be on camera maybe because they don’t think that they dress up or have their make up on that day or something like that ha ha
We never use "canh chua" alone. It would be best if you ate it with steamed rice or bún. I felt disappointed when the restaurant staff didn't suggest you eat with them.
It seems weird to eat canh chua without rice 😅
not sure, but i think ca' loc is catfish? thats the fish that s normally served in Viet sour soup
