And we got a little cut through we can do is it dirty?
No, no, we can walk around. No, no. No, I thought they redid it. So we'll take the long way
It'll take an extra minute and a half. That was a good shot. Oh
That's cool. Oh, look at that. Got another freaking new vendor right over there. Somebody's selling chaya. That's so cool
I love when new stuff opens. Yeah, they sell like sweet pudding
Yeah dessert spot and it was kind of cool. Good vibe too. Why don't we go there after dinner?
If you get some chaya after dinner, it's possible
I don't know what kind it is, you know so many kinds. Hopefully they serve rooster beer here my favorite beer

I was hoping to see a rooster on here, but I'll set it for a tiger
That's in there, baby. That's a clip. We got a peanut guy back here. Maybe we'll get a peanut
Why not get him out anymore pick?
Okay, Tom. I'll pick yeah coming on yet
And these are boiled
We support the vendor. These are boiled. They're not they're not boiled like you would get in the south
They're not that soft, but they're just kind of tender. I'm glad we got the peanuts pretty good
You don't like the peanut. Really? What don't you like about it?
It's soft, but they're a winner. I like them. It's worth the 20k. They have a horseshoe crabs over there
I got one in Phu Quoc. It's sucked. It's terrible. It just eggs
That's so funny. I was at a restaurant the other day
It's a nice spot and there was two older Vietnamese woman and they're eating crab and they were just throwing the crab shells on the
Ground and you know, sometimes that's cool. And maybe in this situation, it wasn't cool
But right now we're at this spot and we have all these peanut shells
My wife asked for a bag to throw the stuff away and the server just said just throw it on the ground. It's fine
You got tofu sick. That's a weird plate for this. Okay, maybe pick a small plate. This is fried tofu with fish sauce
Look good to me
Yo, that is a banger. That's like the best I've ever had Wow
That's really good, did you say that's fine? Oh my goodness. The text was really nice on it. Sure. You gotta try this one, dude
Fine I
Want to get another play that it's awesome. I love it and all the green onion, too
Jade, you're not gonna try it. This is might be the best dish in the night. Yeah, this is a banger potentially my new favorite
tofu dish I
Love this dish now whole gene nuke mom. That's a winner, baby
I don't know if they put flour in the toe the tofu the texture on the outside. It's a little bit different more food
It's raining. Oh, it looks like there's crispy rice in here
Hooray
We might have a banger of a restaurant a new neighborhood banger. That's amazing
Very big rain now
oysters with cheese
Are you just stealing the cheese you just scooped the cheese off the oyster you can have it be careful
Maybe hot cheers with my wife here
Yo
Pretty good food. The rice is a little too much puffed rice. It's almost like half crispy rice, but it's cool. Mmm
All right. This is a cool dish
This is going down
It's like a baby shrimp salad with a yellow flower that we eat with the prawn cracker
But we're gonna need more prawn crackers
Yeah
Why is there you can here is that you can it's you can goddammit the salad just became oh, yeah
The bento Thomas stale to very stale
Oh, it's disgusting. It's terrible. Well, it has that leaf in it. I hate this one leaf the crackers and stale too
We got to get new crackers
And a big bite
There it is
We get some rice cracker
It's 20k again
Okay crackers better my wife is removing all the leaves and we just got some crackers from this vendor just walking by that's cool
It's always a super fun thing about eating on the street. I guess I mean we're plugging it in
No, that's scary
This is so young
This freaking show this is definitely better than our other local spot. So we got a new local restaurant and it's even closer
My mom and dad will love this spot and I will always hate that herb man Oh brother
Yep
I'm trying the oysters are terrible. What's wrong the oyster doesn't taste good
Treat loves oysters too. So he's had it many times. My wife got a quail egg our duck egg
But my daughter is the one who's gonna steal the juice. She gonna drink the juice. You like it. JD good
Mmm, those are actually really good. I love them fantastic. This is a so young so this just a big kind of clam
They grill it cut it up put it back in the shell
And you could probably either put the salt chili kumquat. He's got one over there too or their seafood sauce, whichever one you like
Oh, yeah, this is a good one. It's a good clam. I think you're gonna dig this
You're doing a tiger
Emily John highland tiger similar to a lot of clams you would have in the States like a beach clam or surf clam kind of
Thing texture is good. There's usually very little sand in there or real grit or anything like that
Yeah, not money no she gave us there's beers in the ice
Yeah, this is be it self-service
Nice I
Love those little shrimp. They're the best. They're so cool. It's a cool shrimp dish with those
It's the first time I ever had him and he makes a sauce with hat a and tomatoes and then you wrap it with Oh
Whoa, that's a beast of a fish dude. That looks freaking good. Yo, that's the biggest one
This is the spot right here. Look at this thing. Wow. Look at this thing, man
That looks excellent
Tang and tomato and like a sour rice fermented, right?
And then you like there's so many lettuces and you wrap them up in a little cone
There's a technique and then you dump as many shrimp as you can in the cone
And then you put as much sauce as possible and then you don't eat in one bite. It's really cool
It's one of my favorite things. I've never seen anyone else make it. Oh, really? Is it like super? Oh
No, that's the bone. Okay. Damn that part looks so good
Okay
Pretty good, dude
The fish sauce is good. The fish sauce like sweet. It's a banger
It's good and the fish is cooked. Well, I dig it banger. This spot is good more pickle. Yeah
pickle really good
It's good. Yeah, the fish sauce is good. I think I jam is good, too
So I mean, this is always the jam at this spot. I just want a big grilled fish. That's it. That's all I need
Big girl fish. I'm freaking happy super healthy fish here. It's good. Yeah, this is a spot. Look how sticky this fish sauce is
Yeah, it's sweet it's got some lime and it's not that sweet
You want to try them? This is great
This is cat camp. This is orange fish. It's got jam
I don't know that means to be it but this is pomfret or hoppin out and I actually might like the GAC em
More today. It's firmer
I mean the flavor is stronger
But it's good in the wrap if I'm gonna eat as a wrap the meat is firmer and this fish is even though it's a
Stronger flavor, it's still like fresh
So it doesn't have any like off flavor and I got great news for everybody a fish has two sides
So we're only on side one. We also need more pickle
You want to stick your hand up and get these sweet girls attention if you can just get the call on them
Just put your hand up and say I love you. He's got that one down. I
Think if I'm just gonna eat it straight, maybe I like that one better. I like this one better straight
I like this one better in Iraq. Do you like the fishiness? Yeah
It has something yeah, it's like the most mild of the fishy. Yeah. Oh, I got an idea the fish on the cracker
