You know? I’d actually love a series where she cooks all her favorite recipes and shares them with us. EDIT. Woa...this blew up. Hope @uyenninh sees it.
I have to say, this is absolutely one of my most favourite shorts on YT because it explains so simply and easily how you make your food! I'm a British-born Vietnamese and I've always wanted to cook the same dishes as my mum does, but felt it kind of too intimidating to. The way you show it makes me feel like I maybe can do it!! 😣 I'd really love it if you could do more "what I eat in a day" to show off more everyday-type Vietnamese meals, please! Regardless, just know that I have and will probably watch this short multiple times, haha 😅
She is self-employed and finished her studies :) I think she just distribute her working hours across all 7 days a week and is more flexible (maybe more in the evening or with more breaks, or one day more and then less another day?). I aspire to work more flexible and from home one day as well 🥹
She must work from home. The prep for the veggies take a lot of time. Im carribean and we have similar cuisine. It takes time! That's why my parents made sure that when we got home from school; we had to first do the vegetable- meal prep, defrost the meat and cut everything up. When our parents came home from work, they could start cooking without having to prep everything. On my own....I don't cook Caribbean food. Takes too long on my own. Plus I have very little patience(adhd) I need food prepping to be quick and easy but rich in flavour. Which is why I love Italian food. 😂 i get my carribean fix at takeaways😂 unlocked memory: Saturdays at the kitchen table. My sister and I picking leafy greens from the stalks and arguing. My mother telling me I was getting distracted and that my sister was going to finish first(ofcourse we made a competition out of it)! My mother busy at the sink, grinding and chopping things, my father blasting old motown records as he is 'cleaning' a bag of rice; pouring out the rice on a table and picking out the tiny impurities. Like stones or blackened grains. On a rainy day in Europe.
In other words, Uyen is privileged and her life has obviously nothing in common with the reality of a huge number of normal hard working people, and certainly nothing to do with normal families with children. No criticism, just an observation and good for her.
@@basicallyhuman She's eating rice with all these meals, I think. She just didn't mention it explicitly. But that's my impression as a regular viewer and there's a bowl of rice with the other stuff at the end of the video. I had to watch it twice, because I went: 'did she go keto or what's happening?' at first, too 😉
@@8all8at8once8 many asian food stores have them! :) They are usually in a clear bag with some brine from the pickling. Super delicious in certain soups!
You guys are an amazing couple. You work things out. You are true to eachother. You both never forced the other to change. You both helped eachother. That's so wholesome
@@lene_kuchisabishiibecause they're a different cultural couple.. But they didn't force each other to change for each other cultures, like she didn't force him to eat Vietnamese food, and he didn't force her to just eat bread for an easy cut.. Both of them accept their differences and just take the middle way, making what they're comfortable with or what they used to have. So both are happy
@@batt3ryac1d Asia is a huge continent. Even in Asian stores, it's hard to find every single fruit/vegetable you're looking for unless that store is specific to a country. That being said, there are online stores that sell Vietnamese produce in Germany, so it's not like it's impossible to find. But you have to specifically go looking for the less common stuff.
must be nice to have that time. 👍 I get up 6:30, send the Girls to school at 7:30 and leave for work at 7:45. But yeah, after retirement I try cooking soup in the morning, because it really looks delicious!
There is nothing about her that makes her more foodie than you or anyone else. I'm going to assume you work, probably 8-4 or 9-5, which leaves little time to cook and prepare things as conveniently as she does She is a RUclipsr and TikToker. She does what she wants all day, thats why she also has this time to cook. Don't compare yourself to this and don't think you're less of a foodie because of it (don't think that being a foodie has to do with how many meals a person cooks a day or a week because that's just not true and stupid. It has to do with the love of food, learning about food and eating, that's the point) .
How can you cook three different dishes a day? That's amazing! As a Korean who eat similar hot soup, I usually cook a large amount of soup at dinner and eat it for 2-3days.
Idk about other Viet families, but at our home, we always try to make a enough amount of food for 1 or 2 meals as my mom said that the vegetable in soup once cooked is gonna be not as nutritious as it was, in the next day. If we have leftovers, we still eat it but if it’s 2 days old, bye baby 😆 I think what makes the difference between the way how Vietnamese make meals is the vegetable cost, it’s so cheap there and always fresh; and most of the soups doesn’t take too long to cook (~30 mins)
I love that you and your man don’t feel obligated to eat the same meals as each other. Me and my husband who have always struggled with what to eat cause we don’t eat the same have somewhat adopted this since I started watching your content and god has it made life so much easier
Amen, thats so true, its hard cuz we are from 2 different countries, cuisines, and cultures. Sometimes we like some of the same things, it does overlap, but we both miss our own traditional foods, and we both didnt learn all the recipes completely
do you guys cook your own food for yourselves instead of making one dish for both of you to eat? me and my husband are currently struggling with this now. i’m filipino and he’s mexican, and he’s much more picky than i am so i struggle so much with making food that we’ll both like 😅
@@hannahc3533I couldn't live in a home with someone that cooks fish in the home .My husband absolutely hated cooked cabbage. Waking up to eggs cooking ? Eww I will gag. I eat eggs (rarely) but, waking up to it? No! Also... ex hated the smell of bacon in the morning...it was like just a smell of grease to him Loved bacon just not smelling it in the morning. Some of us are way more picky.
@@hannahc3533Hi I'm Mexican and my sister in law is Filipina! I lived with them and I noticed that my brother knew what went into every dish and my Mam and I soon learned too. Being able to identify the flavors that you are eating helps tremendously when you are a picky eater. It helped that that once in awhile she would make small adjustments to her dishes. For example when she make her rice porridge with ginger she used to leave the pieces of chicken skin in the soup and big pieces but because I'm autistic and have a lot of sensory issues she learned that I would be able to eat the soup if she ground the chicken skins into a paste and added them back for flavor as long as I can't feel them it's not a problem. You are under no obligation though to change your cuisine for your husband, these are just tips. Also I feel obligated to whine about being fed "chocolate meat" without being told what it was. Dinuguan broke my spirit that day. 😂
Fish for breakfast is so very different than what I'm used to. I'm not a big fan of fish as a whole, but I'm getting better at trying new ones. I could not do that breakfast though. I'm glad you enjoy it! It seems super healthy to start your day off like that
We are sort of brought up in a culture where we believe breakfast fuels your day so it should be a hearty and good meal. Most Viets living in their home country will actually go out and have a full meal for breakfast as it is cheap, healthy and filling!!
@@egalscheie5714Interesting. As she said in some of her posts, she is not considered skinny in Asia. Actually, on a chubby side. Everything is obviously about perspective.
@@merlion6613 no i am asian, she is skinny, her face looks chubby but if u see more of her videos, she is skinny but not bony skinny, think of Size 2 at most or size 0, in asia truly skiny is size 00 or XXS. I am asian and i am size 4

*"...and then I remove the meat out of its body"* is the _BEST Out of Context_ lines in this video. Love, it! Love this sour, spicy fishy soup idea, too. It looks SO GOOD!
@@carolinemonteavaro5146we usually have a set spice rule of sugar (sweet), lime/lemon (sour), fish sauce (salty), fresh bird eye chilli (spicy) and a lot of herbs to compliment the soup. Sometimes pineapple for sweet/sour or even tamarind paste for the sour element! But most of our food has a balance of these four flavours 🫶
Jute soup is really common in Egypt - molokhaia. The jute is chopped very fine. The jute almost has a gelatinous quality. I also love to make it with shrimp.
Those all sound good, I should try it. In Poland we have a pretty big Vietnamese minority but most of the Vietnamese food is kind of commercialized, I’d love to eat more of the real thing
Back in time when I live in the Philippines, my family always eat a lot of vegetables in every meal. I don’t remember any member of my family admitted to hospital. We don’t even visit any clinics but I remember we visited public dental clinic. We rarely get sick back then. But now lifestyle there is different, Filipino foods have become westernized. The diet changed and a lot of people are eating fewer fruits and vegetables, and more sugar, salty and fatty products.
I love how green, fresh, and healthy a lot of Vietnamese cuisine looks. I’m so lazy I could never. Yesterday my breakfast was a bowl of cereal. My dinner was a slice of cheddar on a flour tortilla, microwaved for 30 seconds😂
I am a SEA, and I wish I was able to cook like her!! 😫 All the food she’s cooking reminds me of my home country (Philippines), and I am, right now, salivating, even though I literally just had dinner. I’m a Filipino living in Denmark
As an eastern Indonesian, my daily food is like Breakfast - rice, green soup and fried egg/tempe/tofu or - egg fried rice/ yellow rice with anchovy and omolette, and pickles Or - Chicken poridge and shrimp crakers Lunch - rice, sauted veggies (kangkung/ banana heart/ papaya flower), fried fish/fried chicken/smoked pork, lawar ikan (raw baby sarden in vinegar and chillies), Or -Rice, Spicy and Sour Fish Soup, sauted veggies, Sambal Terasi (kinda Chilli sauce) Dinner: - Rice, Veggie Soup (potato+carrot, macaroni+meatball), fish with tomato sauce, sambal dabu2 (kinda chilli sauce) Or - Jagung Bose (corn and Beans cooked in coconut milk), sauted veggie, fried pork/fish, sambal lu'at (kinda chilli sauce) Or - Soupy noodle with pokcoy, sambal And many more
In Mexican culture we eat a lot of pumpkin flowers, but I never knew you could eat the whole sprout!! I have some sprouts growing now! I'll have to see how to prepare them.
I remembered how much I miss pumpkin leaves when I saw you prepare them! My grandma is Korean and she would steam them and you can wrap some rice and thick bean paste stew in it and it tastes so amazing! I didn't know we got those in Germany 😊
We have pumpkins, so of course we got their leaves! Thanks to this channel I've actually started harvesting my pumpkin plant leaves for a while now, it's actually kinda fun to "Peel" the stems and the plants have way too many leaves anyway. Only issue is the leaves tend to get Mehltau (white mildew?) very fast, wouldn't eat those leaves then..
@cognitivedissonance7422 yes you're right we have pumpkins, I just didn't come across the young leaves at the supermarket yet 😂 I don't know if my balcony will be enough for a pumpkins plant😢
@@reddevil939 ah oops that makes sense. Before I had my own garden this year, I used to ask those roadside pumpkin patch stall sellers in the more rural areas if I could also take some leaves. They are usually very confused about that but I've gotten them for free if i bought a pumpkin too. It's probably indeed difficult to get the leaves at a supermarket outside of a big Asian store, sorry :/
@cognitivedissonance7422 no need to be sorry! Always open to ideas, so thanks for that, it actually didn't occur to me to ask friends that might grow pumpkins for leaves, so thanks 😉 I'll just check that common species of pumpkin have edible leaves and maybe I'll be having some this or next year:)
Hey, I’m Vietnamese and living away from my mom has been so hard. My partner is American so of course most days we’ll eat American food and it makes me miss Vietnamese food so much. You make it look so easy to cook viet stuff so it’s helping me move towards the direction of doing so
I've had a sort of all over the place relationship with food throughout my life, and sometimes I can feel a bit... irritated or frustrated with myself that it's time to eat again and how much time and money I spend on food (even though creative cooking is one of my favorite things to do, I'm talking about daily eating, and both can make me feel a bit guilty). But something about how Uyen is staring those pumpkin leaves down as she prepares them makes me feel like I shouldn't be so hard on myself. It reminds me of visiting my friends' houses when I was living in China, when we'd all get together and snap beans or wrap dumplings or something, and how it always felt like every meal was a celebration. Definitely some of my favorite memories
I agree with you, don't be so hard on yourself! It's great that you enjoy cooking, and if you have the means, why not spend money on something you love! Food makes us happy 😊..All the best for you 🌸
Your diet looks sooo healthy. I have adopted a Japanese/Korean spicing/seasoning method to my food. In no way so I eat any kind of authentic Asian food but my meals are so flavourful, plentiful, filling, and tasty!!! I always have leftovers. I need to go to a weekly cooking class that teaches actual Asian culture cooking dishes and methods so I can figure out how to make my food taste more different since I use a lot of the same flavours over and over again lol
I came back from Vietnam after 3 weeks today and I had no idea that that was pumpkin sprout and jute and I’ve been wondering so long. I love them so much, as well as banana flower.
the breakfast soup looks wonderful and also goddamn it's impressive you can do all that in the morning. i'm sure it's like a long-standing habit/ability to make a morning meal like that, but dude i can't even cut bread in the morning sometimes leave alone cut up a baked fish!!!! impressive asf. meanwhile you can catch me tearing chunks off a bread loaf and eating 1 piece of cheese for my breakfast lmao
@@Dwight.K.Schrute.you want her to forgo her diet of wonderfully seasoned food, a full and warm vegetable/herb filled diet for some cold bread and cheese? Once you’ve been brought up on such wonderful food, you can’t switch it to something completely different entirely. Uyen and her partner eat differently and she never forced her food onto him or vice versa, the ignorant one is you.
@@nhienmccormick4734 its food, she actively denies eating German food and always talks condescendingly about it, this information is based on her videos and shorts, she influences others. It is not that hard to adapt to new food even once a week, but publicly talking bad about the food of the country that offered her so much is just not okay. Try to find the excuses you want, however, in my opinion, she shouldn't be doing that, she has been living there for years, I mean try to be more open-minded.
@@Dwight.K.Schrute. What a bizarre thing to take issue with 😂 If you ever immigrate to another country, you'll understand. The majority of people usually continue to eat the food they were brought up with, especially when their new country uses diametrically different ingredients and food staples like bread instead of rice or fish sauce vs salt & pepper. Have you tired both Vietnamese and German food? There is no comparison or overlap so yeah, she's going to miss the food she grew up with and there's nothing wrong with eating what she loves. Get a grip.
The first three years of immigration I have had tried to provide the diet and groceries I had from my country but later on I gave up and started adopting the new country diet, I feel less pressured even tho the food is not that good
@@SandySass if that's true, that's really awful and closed minded to completely reject the food of the country she moved too. Food is an important part of any country's culture.
Girl, you eat so many vegetables and put serious work into your meals. I respect that a lot.
That’s vietnamese food for ya. We used alots of herbs and green in ours dishes

Would like to know what spices or herbs she uses to make it spicy and sour.
@@carolinemonteavaro5146sour = pineapple with tomato; spicy = 🌶️ and pepper
@@carolinemonteavaro5146we usually have a set spice rule of sugar (sweet), lime/lemon (sour), fish sauce (salty), fresh bird eye chilli (spicy) and a lot of herbs to compliment the soup. Sometimes pineapple for sweet/sour or even tamarind paste for the sour element! But most of our food has a balance of these four flavours 🫶
@@carolinemonteavaro5146 sour: the pickle, spicy: chillies , can be like that 😊
Jute soup is really common in Egypt - molokhaia. The jute is chopped very fine. The jute almost has a gelatinous quality. I also love to make it with shrimp.
Yup! In Lebanon with chicken 🇱🇧
Jute? As the same thing that is in ropes? Huh.
Same in Philippines but we add also either yardlong beans or bamboo shoots.
Those all sound good, I should try it. In Poland we have a pretty big Vietnamese minority but most of the Vietnamese food is kind of commercialized, I’d love to eat more of the real thing
Most migrants don’t go to poland
Polish people: WE STOPPED THE MIGRANTS
Back in time when I live in the Philippines, my family always eat a lot of vegetables in every meal. I don’t remember any member of my family admitted to hospital. We don’t even visit any clinics but I remember we visited public dental clinic. We rarely get sick back then. But now lifestyle there is different, Filipino foods have become westernized. The diet changed and a lot of people are eating fewer fruits and vegetables, and more sugar, salty and fatty products.
I love how green, fresh, and healthy a lot of Vietnamese cuisine looks. I’m so lazy I could never. Yesterday my breakfast was a bowl of cereal. My dinner was a slice of cheddar on a flour tortilla, microwaved for 30 seconds😂
No hate on the tortilla dinner lol i do the same. U could get fancy and call it a cheesy roll up 😂
I really love your content. Please keep on making it! And all the best to you and German boyfriend.
Thank you! Will do! ☺️
it's fiance now🎉🎉
Your accent is the reason why I like your videos
I am a SEA, and I wish I was able to cook like her!! 😫
All the food she’s cooking reminds me of my home country (Philippines), and I am, right now, salivating, even though I literally just had dinner.
I’m a Filipino living in Denmark
Nice! A filipino ☺️
As an eastern Indonesian, my daily food is like

Or

Lunch

And many more
That sounds so good. I'm so jealous😭😭❤
😋 mmm sambal is sooo good
Riceee fam
You asians (except Indians) must really hate animals to be eating them so much even though there's so many veggies growing over there.
Mostly we eat the same meal for breakfast lunch n dinner. Hahahhaha.. I'm Indonesian too anyway
In Mexican culture we eat a lot of pumpkin flowers, but I never knew you could eat the whole sprout!! I have some sprouts growing now! I'll have to see how to prepare them.
stir fry with beef, garlic and oyster sauce. It'll be good.
@@HoaTruong-km9rk Oh that sounds SO good. I can't wait!
@@tu_tia_violeta remember to prepare them properly though XD
I love having soup for breakfast. I made a spicy lamb soup and it was phenomenal. Perfect way to start the day. It’s really cold here still.
The fish soup sounds and looks amazing🤤
This is turning into a Vietnamese food channel, and I'm here for it ❤
Such healthy meals. Her body must be so strong and healthy with all the greens, fish and seafood.
And so full of Schwermetalle 😅
Looks so healthy! Please post a recipe for the fish soup!
I'm amazed by how you can do everything with sticks 🤗
I love how you and your fiancé come from 2 very different cultures but you each eat different foods. ❤❤
I remembered how much I miss pumpkin leaves when I saw you prepare them! My grandma is Korean and she would steam them and you can wrap some rice and thick bean paste stew in it and it tastes so amazing! I didn't know we got those in Germany 😊
I think German boyfriend might have special-ordered them. ❤
We have pumpkins, so of course we got their leaves! Thanks to this channel I've actually started harvesting my pumpkin plant leaves for a while now, it's actually kinda fun to "Peel" the stems and the plants have way too many leaves anyway. Only issue is the leaves tend to get Mehltau (white mildew?) very fast, wouldn't eat those leaves then..
@cognitivedissonance7422 yes you're right we have pumpkins, I just didn't come across the young leaves at the supermarket yet 😂 I don't know if my balcony will be enough for a pumpkins plant😢
@@reddevil939 ah oops that makes sense. Before I had my own garden this year, I used to ask those roadside pumpkin patch stall sellers in the more rural areas if I could also take some leaves. They are usually very confused about that but I've gotten them for free if i bought a pumpkin too. It's probably indeed difficult to get the leaves at a supermarket outside of a big Asian store, sorry :/
@cognitivedissonance7422 no need to be sorry! Always open to ideas, so thanks for that, it actually didn't occur to me to ask friends that might grow pumpkins for leaves, so thanks 😉 I'll just check that common species of pumpkin have edible leaves and maybe I'll be having some this or next year:)
Hey, I’m Vietnamese and living away from my mom has been so hard. My partner is American so of course most days we’ll eat American food and it makes me miss Vietnamese food so much. You make it look so easy to cook viet stuff so it’s helping me move towards the direction of doing so
As a foreigner living in Denmark, I would love the recipes, this looks delicioooous
I've had a sort of all over the place relationship with food throughout my life, and sometimes I can feel a bit... irritated or frustrated with myself that it's time to eat again and how much time and money I spend on food (even though creative cooking is one of my favorite things to do, I'm talking about daily eating, and both can make me feel a bit guilty). But something about how Uyen is staring those pumpkin leaves down as she prepares them makes me feel like I shouldn't be so hard on myself. It reminds me of visiting my friends' houses when I was living in China, when we'd all get together and snap beans or wrap dumplings or something, and how it always felt like every meal was a celebration. Definitely some of my favorite memories
I agree with you, don't be so hard on yourself! It's great that you enjoy cooking, and if you have the means, why not spend money on something you love! Food makes us happy 😊..All the best for you 🌸
I'm curious to know how many time you spend to cook ? I would love to do the same ! Love Vietnamese meals !
i love this, it looks so filling and oml all those greens in every meal
Your diet looks sooo healthy. I have adopted a Japanese/Korean spicing/seasoning method to my food. In no way so I eat any kind of authentic Asian food but my meals are so flavourful, plentiful, filling, and tasty!!! I always have leftovers. I need to go to a weekly cooking class that teaches actual Asian culture cooking dishes and methods so I can figure out how to make my food taste more different since I use a lot of the same flavours over and over again lol
Ohhh please do a series side by side on what you and your hubby eats in a day. It would be so awesome to see the difference ❤
I came back from Vietnam after 3 weeks today and I had no idea that that was pumpkin sprout and jute and I’ve been wondering so long. I love them so much, as well as banana flower.
Everything looks both so yummy and healthy omg
My husband and I love Vietnamese food. Top tier soups 🤤
the breakfast soup looks wonderful and also goddamn it's impressive you can do all that in the morning. i'm sure it's like a long-standing habit/ability to make a morning meal like that, but dude i can't even cut bread in the morning sometimes leave alone cut up a baked fish!!!! impressive asf.
meanwhile you can catch me tearing chunks off a bread loaf and eating 1 piece of cheese for my breakfast lmao
Can I come over for breakfast? And lunch, and dinner?
😂😂😂
@@uyenninh I could propably come by train from Brussels. 😋
This has the healthiest what I eat in day video ever! 😊
I will make that fish soup, it looks amazing!!
I'm not really a veggie person but everything here looked genuinely mouthwatering! I definitely have to start trying out new things
Veggies are awesome! Asian recipes use it really well
I relate to the big complicated breakfast, honestly really makes my day better
YUMMY THAT LOOKS SOOO GOOD I AM DROWLING
The first fish soup is same with my Filipino mom’s fish soup! I loved it very much.
Love how she still has a vietnamese diet, never forgetting her roots like a true south east Asian lmao
Ignorant but yeah.
@@Dwight.K.Schrute.how I'd it ignorant?
@@Dwight.K.Schrute.you want her to forgo her diet of wonderfully seasoned food, a full and warm vegetable/herb filled diet for some cold bread and cheese? Once you’ve been brought up on such wonderful food, you can’t switch it to something completely different entirely. Uyen and her partner eat differently and she never forced her food onto him or vice versa, the ignorant one is you.
@@nhienmccormick4734 its food, she actively denies eating German food and always talks condescendingly about it, this information is based on her videos and shorts, she influences others.
It is not that hard to adapt to new food even once a week, but publicly talking bad about the food of the country that offered her so much is just not okay.
Try to find the excuses you want, however, in my opinion, she shouldn't be doing that, she has been living there for years, I mean try to be more open-minded.
@@Dwight.K.Schrute. What a bizarre thing to take issue with 😂 If you ever immigrate to another country, you'll understand. The majority of people usually continue to eat the food they were brought up with, especially when their new country uses diametrically different ingredients and food staples like bread instead of rice or fish sauce vs salt & pepper. Have you tired both Vietnamese and German food? There is no comparison or overlap so yeah, she's going to miss the food she grew up with and there's nothing wrong with eating what she loves. Get a grip.
Okayyyy, time to look up some recipes!! That breakfast soup looks amaziiiinh
Right! 😊 think she should share her recipes ❤
I absolutely agree with you! I want to try that soup)
Mustard greens soup is soooo yummy!! My mom used to make it with little dried shrimps 😊
So healthy ❤ i love it. Traditional foods are the best!
Girl just described every kid's nightmare
In Vietnam, kids eat their vegetables or they simply end up starving. LOL
Trying to figure out what every kid's nightmare is...
Food must be the thing connecting u to home❤
What an adorable day 🫶🏻 i love ur tone very cozy
As someone from the Philippines, I can really relate to this. ❤️✨
Her voice reminds me of mrs she❤
That's one of the healthiest meals ever❤
I want a cooking series from both of you now. Vietnamese meal and German meal! 😄
I still think his reaction to sliced bread is hilarious. "Sweetie! Toast is not bread!" All sliced bread is automatically toast!
Do a cooking series of shorts,please!!!!!! I would love to try some.of those
Omg. We literally eat the same things. But I’m in California! Haha. This makes me so happy. I love your recipes! 🥰
If you made a restaurant and it was in my area i swear I'd go there everyday these look so scrumptious
Even as an Asian, i'm too lazy to cook my meal three times a day 🤣🤣
I just cook one or two dishes in the morning for my breakfeast, lunch , dinner 🤣
That's very chinese.
Actually chinese in Europe don't have much time to cook in the morning so they do everything at night
That breakfast honestly sounds so tasty and heartwarming for the morning 🥰
Pickled mustard greens are soooo good 🤤 i wish i knew how to make it
It must've been hilarious when your boyfriend first smelled the breakfast in the kitchen, oh I can imagine the face he made.
I can't imagine his face getting home every day to a house smelling like garlic, shallots, fish... etc
@@LunaSandI know right, how lucky is he to smell fresh home cooked meals
@@sarahpatterson5779Asian Food sux
@@LunaSandIt's only the fish that would bother me.
Would love to discover some of your traditionnal dishes and recipes ! Looks so healthy and conforting at the same time ❤️
The first three years of immigration I have had tried to provide the diet and groceries I had from my country but later on I gave up and started adopting the new country diet, I feel less pressured even tho the food is not that good
My favorite meal of the day❤❤❤
As a filipina i can relate❤
so you are telling me you eat barely 800 calories a day?
I'd die if I hate this little.
I was wondering about that, too.
I mean, your not her doctor hun😊maybe stfu
Apparently she does 🤷🏻 doesn't look sustainable
I would love to eat barely 800 calories a day I’m trying to get my diet like hers but smaller portions 😭
Your meals are goals! I love leafy veggies and would eat them more but they bloat me so bad😢
Same 😢
I would like to have the recipes in the description. Your food looks so good and healthy. Thank you and bon appetit!❤
I wish I i had the energy to cook like this when i get home from work😮💨
Could you show us some of the German food you eat regularly?
She doesn't eat German food. Like, ever, lol.
@@SandySass if that's true, that's really awful and closed minded to completely reject the food of the country she moved too. Food is an important part of any country's culture.
@@KoishiChan92is there any tasty German food to eat lol?
@@KoishiChan92 I didn't say she hasn't tried it, I said she doesn't eat it. She doesn't like it, simple as that.
@@KoishiChan92its a free country and everyone can eat what they want
It looks delicious and healthy.
I want her to release a cook book so badly
And what do you do all day: I prepare food
sour spicy fishy soup sounds PERFECT for the morning. warm, refreshing and definitely will wake you up for the rest of the day 💯💯💯💯
