First Time Trying Phở in America Since I Moved to Vietnam
Вставка

- In this food travel vlog, my dad and I eat some phở at a Vietnamese restaurant in El Segundo, California. This was my first time trying phở in America since I moved to Vietnam.
It was interesting to compare phở in America to the phở I’m used to having in Saigon. It was also fun having a Vietnamese meal with my dad, and doing a dank rank food review with him.
The exact name and location of the restaurant in the video is:
Pho Dreams
413 Main St, El Segundo, CA 90245, United States
Thanks for watching! I hope you enjoyed this food travel vlog.

Hey man, these videos with your dad are awesome! My dad and I don't have a relationship like this so watching your videos makes me happy to see what a loving father and son relationship looks like!
Invite your dad come travel Việt Nam!
Your Dad Very Handsome👍
kkkkkkkk
I agree he is hot and I’m 71
Tyler, your extensive experience living in Vietnam has given you a deep understanding of what authentic Pho should taste like.👍
You should upload more videos so UA-cam will pay you more, Tyler. So love watching and following your adventures does not matter in America or in Viet Nam
Hi Taylor, you should try Pho Holic in Little Saigon. It’s very delicious !!😋
The bushard location
Hello Tyler and your Dad, pho in US are more health conscious whereas Saigon Pho are all about flavor .Also slurping in Vietnam is considered a compliment for the chef that the food was that good. Your dad looks very comfortable at that restaurant as a frequent customers.
Good to see you back
the green vegetable is called basil leave or húng quế in Vietnamese.
Those green vegetables are obviously basil.
I think your Vietnamese is pretty good and your
critique of the pho was very good.
Your Vietnamese is awesome 😎! I am impressed 😊
Dear Mr TYLER,
The reason I Like this video A Lot because I watch this good video with my wife.
I as weLL as my wife watch your video TWiCE because my wife is a Vietnamese LADY,
and my wife REALLY REALLY enjoy watching your video, because my wife tells me that
your Vietnamese pronunciation is VERY Good. My wife is Vietnamese, my parents are from
SiNGAPORE, and I Love Vietnamese people and Vietnamese foods.
Speaking of Vietnamese food (pho), in this video, you (Mr) TyLer are generous to give that BowL of
Pho 6.1. The reason is: my Wife and I have been eating Pho throughout California, [more than one hundred
Pho restaurant from the Southern California to Northern California ].
My Vietnamese wife tells me that Pho in California wiLL never be as AUTHENTIC as Pho in Saigon and Hanoi
in Vietnam.
My Vietnamese wife gives Pho in California a 4 on the scale from 1 to 10.
one more thing, the waiter (who takes your order) is not as friendly as true Vietnamese that you met in
Sài Gòn Vietnam.
My wife enjoys watching your videos because my Vietnamese wife thinks that you (Mr.) TYLER are
very smart man, because it is very difficult for an American man to speak and pronounce Vietnamese WORDs
as correctLY as you do.
My wife and i reaLLy appreciate your polite and respectful ATTITUDE toward Vietnamese people, therefore,
my wife and i wiLL continue to watch every single video that you make and upload on your UA-cam channeL.
Thank you TyLer for another GREAT video, you and your father have a nice day.
Thanks so much for the comment and I’m really glad you and your wife enjoy the videos! Cheers to both of you
Your words are very kind, Thank you, (Mr.) Tyler. I am Looking forward to your next video.
Texas has a pretty good pho
Awesome you're spending time with your Dad and in US but here's hoping you'll be back in Vietnam soon. KCCO
Good to see you back with your videos where you mention PhoHolic. You will absolutely love the pho there as it is my favorite especially Stanton location
Welcome back to America with Anthony Bourdain and Big Tyler lol❤🎉😮
Wow… you speak Vietnamese very well! This is my first time watching your video. 👍
Watching you and your dad meet after so long makes me want go back to Canada to see my dad faster after I now live 5 years in the Philippines being an expat.
I think you gotta travel a bit southeast from there to the actual "Little Saigon" area where the food is more diverse, abundant, and of course more authentic.
Yeah...El Segundo isn't exactly the hotbed of Vietnamese culture. Lol
Nice to see your dad enjoying Vietnamese foods with you. Memories to last a lifetime, for sure. You are fortunate to have that wonderful relationship, too. I also like the sidewalk cafe's in Vietnam, sort of like you are doing here in Cali. Here in the Philly area(s), outside Vietnamese eating is a rarity. Pho tai chin with Cafe Sua Da is my favorite. Now I'm hungry....enjoy!
Cheers yeah we had a nice day filming and hanging out 😃
If you prefer rare beef in the Phở, you should ask to put the raw beef on a separate plate. Then you put the raw beef in the bowl by yourself. Also some VNese restaurants in US that let you choose between minced or sliced beef. Hope it helps and enjoy!
Your Dad is so handsome
I was told that in San Francisco, there is a breakfast place which serves a fantastic pho in the morning. There is a long queue outside the restaurant every morning. It's not a Vietnamese restaurant, it's near the Embarcadero.
You should try Pho Tasty in Cerritos- it might be more to your liking
I used to live in Phụ Nhuận district too. Just subscribed! So impressed by your Vietnamese language 👏👏👌👍😃
Thank you! 😃
Like most had said. Dang, your dad is good-looking. 😊 That's basils. Lol
Great video. I'll see you when you come back.
Basil is the green leaf with stem
Húng quế
I'm so impressed, my son barely speaks and read Vietnamese. Thanks for your video
Whose fault is that? 🙄
It always makes me happy seeing people outside of our ethnicity love our Vietnamese food.
You have embraced our culture beautifully and with respect. I’ve only watched a few videos and recently subscribed.
A lil disappointed in the hospitality of the first waiter. We are normally much more gracious to those who have learned our language and embraced out culture. I’m glad the second uncle made up for it.
I hope your show grows in subscription!! It’s wonderful content. But perhaps it’s because you make me nostalgic for the South Bay as well as hopeful I’ll get to go back to Vietnam one day to experience the sights.
On that note - you should try this whole in the wall in Rosemead called Banh Xeo Quan. Hands down best Banh Xeo. Anthony Gold (RIP) from the LA Times rated it highly.
I’ll even meet you up for Banh Xeo if you go. 😊
Also, if you want Pho Tai Bo Vien - next time ask them to leave the beef on the side rare. But make sure the broth is boiling hot when they deliver it so you can dip the rare beef into the soup.
Another tip - ask for green onion stalks in the oil…take a perfect bite of the pho, then follow up with a bite of the green onion stalk. Delicious. Also, ask for sliced white onions and squeeze lime all over it. Add it to your bowl of pho!! Yummy!!
your dad is looking young like brother !
Hello,Mr.Tyler. After finished watching your video. You are absolutely right about Pho 🍲 soup at pho dreams restaurant. You’re right about the soup water and the beef and the bowls sizes. I went to a lots of pho restaurants in Little Saigon in California. In my opinion that I think pho in Vietnam taste a lots better. It’s has a natural taste to it and the price is much cheaper. Oh by the way, you speaking Vietnamese language. You’re great 😊
Người Việt nam 1o ngày không có phở là ...buồn,nhớ❤🎉🎉🎉🎉
Your review is really sharp!! Most Vietnamese restaurants in America outside of Vietnamese communities are not authentic, they're catered to people who are not familiar like you.
Hey Tyler, gotta catchup on yur vlogs since airport, you should do the walkaround by Segundo Beach area. thx
you and your dad look like brother.
Hi Tyler and your dad, I haven’t watched your videos since you left Vietnam. I am happy to see both of you back again. To answer your question about the broth, I think Pho in America in general contains less beef bone than pho in Vietnam because it is costing more these days.
Ah ok very interesting
Pho in the US costs 10 times more than in Vietnam. However, the number of pho each restaurant sells daily in Saigon, Hanoi and other cities in Vietnam can be 10 times higher than in the US. Therefore, the revenue from selling pho for each business household in Vietnam and the US is equal.
Your dad looks more like he's your older brother than your dad ❤
You should ask for a "chén béo" or fat bowl to add to your pho for a richer/fattier flavor. In the state, we don't want more fat. Thus, the chef usually scoops the broth under the surface. The pho noodle in Vietnam is fresh. If you like a rarer sliced beef, ask for it on the side or "tái để riêng".
Hey Bentley , your viet is excellent 👍. You should take your young dad to (Pho Vy) in Westminster, and try their Pho duoi bo (ox tail). It’s one of the best pho I ever had.
omg you speak Vietnamese, it's amazing
Dad needs another ice tea and his bowl surely didn’t look any larger than Tyler’s.
Indeed, I was thinking the same, the small bowl was the same as the large one.
its a trick, they just add more soup base and some place more noodles.
@@tylertran93nsx😂 Khôn nhà dại chợ 😂🤷♂️🤷♂️
PhoHolic, PhoHolic2, PhoHolic in the costa mesa mall are super good! ( Little Saigon - OC)
Server is wearing a green power ranger suit.😂
LOL. why does it have a dinosaur in the front though?
Haha I noticed that when I was editing. “It’s morphing time!”
He or his wife “mua Dai”
The vegetable you are referring to is Thai basil. I have noticed often in the States jalapeno is served with the herbs. In Canada they serve birds eye chili, mint, and cilantro also is included.
yeah jalapenos seemed like the go-to "ot xanh"
Your VN pronunciation is excellent. Your speaking so clear. better than me trying anyway.
thank you
those are the signature american fresh pho noodles, they are supposed to be al dente like that
Your daddy looks like your brother. ..very Cool
I love this
I always thought that Phở and other dishes that were made in Vietnam tasted so much better than the ones made from the Vietnamese people that have migrated to the US, Australia etc
Dad looks like an older brother and a lot younger than he is.
You speak Vietnamese language very well!👍👏😁❤
Thank you! 😃
You'll probably enjoy Saigon Eatery in Torrance!
Put hosin and sriracha for the dip, i like with slice onions in it.
Hi Taylor! You are more Vietnamese than me lol… cause I want my soup more lean that is more healthy 😂
about the dipping sauce , i think you should put " sa tế " in there too
Phoholic is good. But hands down Phở 79 is the best. Very flavorful and clear broth. Phơ 101 in Westminster has the same taste because they are of the same family. They are recipients of both Zagat and James Beard Awards. Been around for over 40 years!
Yeah you did 👍
Actually Phở in Ameria is the best to many vietnamese living abroad. Many Pho restaurants are not the same though. Some good, some not good. You should try Phoholic in OC. Good to see back in America.
They defat the stock in the US but you can ask for a bowl nuoc beo at no extra charge to add as you please.
Chu a little surprise ! " Chu khong ngo Tyler noi duoc tieng Viet! He didn't expect that you spoke Vietnamese!
If you eat Pho and you question yourself??? It’s bad Pho Bro!!!😂😂😂
Flat noodle is pho tươi vs dry noodles.. restaurants in Orange County, they will ask if you prefer the flat or dry. It’s def not authentic phở .. I walked by many times and often told my American husband I rather American food over phở dream 😂
I grew up in MB, Lawndale area...try Pho Hoa on Prairie Ave...pretty decent
That place closed down
Wow..didn't know that...then there is also the one on crenshaw near the el Camino college that is ok
Brooo. That green ranger suit is dank AF
Haha no doubt.
That herbs called Thai basil. But where is the Culantro? In Vietnam pho also serve with rice patty herbs.
Have a good one
You and your dad should go to Little Saigon, Westminster in Orange County drive about 35 minutes from El Segundo they have all kind of Vietnamese foods the best in California itself. i live in Orange County . Have a good foods
check out the next video :)
Nice!!!
Phở ngon quá❤
That's a big contrast from Vietnam to California. Especially the prices and weather 😂. There's only rare places that make the broth a long time with good bone broth in the US.
Dad looks like hes living the life, haha.
The best Pho is in Orange County. Westminster, Garden Grove ….a lot of places
yeah some Westminster videos upcoming
Pho Holic, or Pho Lover, pho 45 . They are the best 👍
Can’t wait to see your pho videos in Westminster
Try Pho Good. Just look at the name hahaha. It’s in Garden Grove.
Pho Akaushi
👍👍🔥🔥
Im eating my home made Pho and right while watching and i rake mine 10.
Nice!
I find that the Pho in Australia is exactly as you danked yours..although if you can find a Vietnamese area it does improve and more authentic. I’m looking forward to a Saigon pho next month..I’m still up to buying you a beer or coffee if your around 👍
I’ll be around
Being half Vietnamese and born in Long Beach; if I slurped my noodles, I’d definitely get a smack on the back of the head with a pair of chopsticks for eating rudely from my mom.
Actually that’s traditional southern Pho, the flat noodles you ate in Saigon was more like northern Pho Bac!
Hey if u Eat Pho in USA it will be Hit or Miss never the same as Vietnam Pho. I don’t go random pho place only go where the Best pho place.
Good Tip for Knowing good Pho place is Alway Crowded of Peoples inside or Waiting outside 👏👏👍👍
The pho is the US is actually a lot better than in Vietnam. I tried some supposedly famous pho in Saigon but it was not as good as the one in the US. There are a few very good pho up in northern California, San Jose. And there are a few good one in Los Angeles as well. El Sugundo is a bit the outskirts of LA, but to get really good pho, you need to hit up Garden Grove, Wesminster, Santa Ana area. Phoholic is good but they have several locations.
The best Pho in the USA and an only place I ever comment is Pho Holic in Santa Ana, California. Try them if you get the chance.
The broth of Pho in US is all MSG in it 😂
👍👍
California and Houston def has some of the best Vietnamese food
Tell your dad to try Thai Lai restaurant on Prairie if you don’t want to drive to OC.. more decent VN food. Try Mì Quảng and Mì khô đặc biệt..of course cơm tấm thịt đặc biệt
The herb is basil. If you smell it you will know immediately
Your dad looks so young and cool. First glance I though he is your brother or friend.
Do you mean Tyler looks old and chubby?😅
@@patrickwilson2475 - haaaa....haaaa...he just looks at his age.
I followed you because of your daddy 😅
😍
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Bạn nói tiếng Việt giỏi quá
Wow nói tiếng Việt giỏi quá
Bonjour hai anh noi tieng viet gioi qua vay bon appétit tu paris
Dad looks like Dennis Quaid
I went to eat pho yesterday in Fremont… the pho price was $25usd included tips
Add sriracha into hoisin sauce it gives more taste Tyler.
I know this video was filmed back in April 20th, but I wanted to update you that PhoHolic in OC, the quality of it has gone down quite a bit. I would no longer go there or recommend anyone to go there. Hope you enjoyed your time back in LA with family 👍
🌹🌹🌹🌹Thank you Bạn Đã chia sẻ video rất tuyệt vời 🌹🌹🌹🌹🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰Với món phở VN ngon lắm
Chúc Hai Bạn ngon miệng Bạn nói tiếng việt giỏi quá nè 🌹🌹🌹🌹👍👍👍
That waiter is still in denial about hearing Vietnamese from you, lol.
Haha yeah maybe
The best soup in Vietnam is hu tieu and bung rieu , bung banh canh , bụng bo,
Dad??? I still can't believe it
