    Thank you for your time and posting. Late October slowly approaches. Side Note: One reason I subscribed was that you always say please and thank you and are courteous. Very few vloggers in VN do that. Actually, very few people do that anymore. It was 106/41 degrees today in Las Vegas. :)

    Hi Ben and Trang. It always great to see both of you in the video together!
    The crawfish was migrated to the west coast from Louisiana Cajun Foods. After August of 2005, the hurricane Katrina hit New Orleans destroyed the entire city and it went under the water. Many Vietnamese Crawfish Restaurants were destroyed and moved to Southern California Little Saigon and established the crawfish restaurants in Westminster, Garden Grove where you and your father ate about a month ago.
    These restaurants are very popular in California, Arizona, New Mexico, Texas, Oregon, Seattle almost all of the south. Sometime you have to wait for almost an hour to get the table.
    Have fun and be safe out there

    I think the Banh Mi on any corner in HCM would beat the ones you tried. I had some amazing ones when I was over there a couple of weeks ago. Missing Vietnam already. Thanks for the vid, nice to see Trang again, you two are looking very happy.

    Nice video. I still say Trang has been in the West for a very long time. I've lived in Louisiana, after you peel the tails shelling, you can pull out the poop line, lol. Most of the time there is a separation of the lower half of the tail and the small top part which separates and you can get that nasty part out. I love crawfish.

    I need to talk my wife into going to the banh mi festival the next time I’m in Vietnam. There’s just something about the French baguette in Vietnam that there’s nothing like it in the US. I could destroy a large French baguette by myself if you give me some condensed milk for breakfast.

    • @BigTimeBentley
      @BigTimeBentley  2 місяці тому

      yeah at a festival like this I think they expect a large amount of non-vietnamese speaking tourists so they probably prepare a little bit for that and bring some people who are decent at English to their food stalls if possible

    I wonder why you bought the same sandwiches at the beginning (mushroom banh mi). Thank goodness you did no repeat it. You would have been limited, tasting wise.
    On another note, is the food at those festivals dearer than street vendors' ones?

    • @BigTimeBentley
      @BigTimeBentley  2 місяці тому

      yeah we should've just bought one at each place...yeah I do think the festival food tends to be slightly more expensive

    She didn’t want to show you because I don’t think she even knows how. Seems like it was geared toward being “viral” on TT right now, not a local dish. Much cheaper here in US and that just looks like a terrible version of Louisiana style crawfish lol
