    Vietnam is really great. I have never seen Vietnam like this. Often people think of bad things here. But when I listened to this video, I found Vietnam so beautiful. Thanks Allan Su!

    This is one of the very best vlog on Hanoi I've seen in ages. I love your introduction, your art house cinematic approach and the way you've captired the romance of this city. Great narration accompanied by recommendations of places to eat and see. Well done Allan Su!

    Why didn't I find this gem of a video for so long. Amid a paraphernalia of vlogs on same-old, cliched touristy stuff, this subtle, but vibrant, narrative on Hanoi stands out. Allan, you introduce us to Hanoi like no else and piqued our curiosity as we give last minute touch to our itinerary for Vietnam. Thank you for this video. :) 👍

      Hey Adrian! Glad you enjoyed the video. Hanoi is filled with backpackers, so if you don't plan to be completely solo during your whole trip. Then you should check out the many hostels around the old quarter. Have fun!

    My favorite thing about this video is how beautiful it is to watch. You've clearly put a lot of effort into grading, visual effects, and scoring. It really makes a difference. Love the use of maps too. One question I had that you didn't address is how easy it is to get around using English. Given that your audience is largely English speakers, this seems like a question worthy of addressing.

    Excellent review! I'm heading to Hanoi in a few weeks and really appreciate the insight. What are your thoughts on eating herbs with pho? Does dunking them in the brother necessarily rid them of contaminants? I'm from Canada and eat Asian cuisine regularly, just trying to avoid any digestive distress!

    • @AllanSu

    This is stupid, you’re recommending wrong dishes for Hanoi
    Banh mi isn’t big in Hanoi like it is in the South. It is available but Hanoi people never consider it as a highlight of their traditional cuisine
    Banh xeo is a Southern dish - do not eat it in Hanoi. It will be bad
    Some dishes that are traditional in Hanoi:
    - Banh cuon Thanh tri - rice flour cake from Thanh Tri
    - cha ca la vong - fish noodle
    - mi van than - Hanoian version of wonton noodle
    - chao suon - pork ribs congee served mainly in the morning
    - bun cha - grilled meat noodle
    - bun thang - a special noodle dish
    - bun moc- another special noodle dish of Hanoi
    - bun mang Vit - bamboo and duck noodle
    For dessert - banh troi, che (all different types)
    Drink juice from the sau fruits

    • @AllanSu
      @AllanSu  5 років тому

      Lol I’m kinda also mentioning two of the dishes you just listed but seems like you missed that. And I agree with the banh mi thing, as I already stated that same thing in the video. These are just suggestions for tourists, and for many they might have their first banh mi in Hanoi, regardless of whether it’s better in the south or not. In the end, this video isn’t solely focused on food recommendations, it’s just a few suggestions.

    • @Lol-ok9kl
      @Lol-ok9kl 5 років тому

      Allan Su Banh mi isn’t consider hanoian cuisine. It is eaten but it is like a snack. No Hanoi people recommend Banh mi to visitors. But they will take you to eat various noodle dishes that are special and important to Hanoi people such as Bun Thang and Bun Moc. These two dishes are very important to Hanoi people

    • @AllanSu
      @AllanSu  5 років тому +1

      @@Lol-ok9kl I agree. But I think you're missing the point here about Banh mi.
      I never said Banh mi was a hanoian cuisine and I even said it's not as popular in the north. But it's one the most famous vietnamese dishes in the eyes of foreigners. As most foreigners who come to Vietnam for the first time will either visit Hanoi or Ho Chi Minh, it's only natural they would want to try a Banh Mi, even if they are visiting Hanoi. I'm, therefore, only making suggestions for those who are still interested in trying a banh mi in Hanoi.
