  • Overnight is a travel and food show for today’s traveler and we’ve been working on this web series for 4 months now. In today’s time hungry world, people want to try and experience so much in so little time. In fact, we discovered that most people travelling around Asia would spend on average 36 to 72 hours in any given capital city. So we decided to the same thing. Overnight will go through 5 large Asian cities (Taipei, Saigon, Kuala Lumpur, Bangkok and Seoul) and will attempt to show you what you can do during those precious few hours you have in the metropolis. From drinking, eating, discovering new cultures all the way up to clubbing. Overnight’s got you covered.
    Here we discover the city of Saigon with Erwan Heussaff and Chef JP Anglo.

    I'm watching this at 1 in the morning and I have 3 thoughts:
    1. I'm super hungry
    2. I just came back from 3 of the Overnight series cities (Saigon, Bangkok and Taipei) and wish I found these videos before
    3. Traveling with you guys must be so fun!

  • @AnnThn
    @AnnThn 7 лет назад +15

    I couldn't agree with you more when you said each time you come back, there are changes yet it's still the same. I was born in Saigon, moved to the states when I was 14. I've spent more time living overseas than living in Saigon now but it's always home. The city is always changing, some times I don't really recognize certain parts of the city yet it's still the same city that I knew. Thank you for such informative video and for calling the city by its familiar name Saigon. 😀

    Saigon is now my #1 go to destination in S E Asia so it was great to see this video. Pretty accurate run down on my favorite city. I've stayed in various hotels and lately rented out apartments weekly or monthly through Airbnb. I also love Chiang Mai northern Thailand but it doesn't have the edginess of Saigon or Vietnam in general. Not happy to hear they are building a new airport in the middle of nowhere. Did the same with Nha Trang which sucked.

      @kienoan2479 7 лет назад +2

      cool, I'm glad you like Saigon. Been here since I was a kid, still loving it now. My hometown is in Ca Mau anyway. It's the south pole point of Vietnam.

    To all beloved foreigners and Vietnamese born North or Central or South, the name "Saigon " with 300 years of history meant a lot to us Southern Vietnamese. Put Vietnam War or Politics aside, please don't fight or argue, but the word "Saigon" brought warmth to us southerners. Please respect our love and culture in the south when you visit our beautiful country. For those who still call it "Ho Chi Minh City", that is still fine, since it's recognized internationally. There's no right or wrong to call it, but just wanna let you all globally known, "Saigon" is a dear name to most of us, Southern Vietnamese. Respect the history and culture! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

    A totally agree, walking is probably not the best way to get around the city but if you're on a bike taxi or in a cab .. you can't stop right away if you see something interesting. So we get a gab bike close to our area we want to explore and then set off by foot. Thank you for all the fun info!

    Hi there. I have just discovered your channel. Though I fully understand the charms and attractions of street/market food options, I also have great enthusiasm for air-conditioned venues, especially in the midst of South East Asia's humidity! I am totally enjoying your videos and they are really helping to fire me up for a proposed visit to Indochina. Many thanks.

    Notre Dame Basilica right in front was a private school where I went to 1st and 2nd grade in 1967 and 1968; my parents forgot me in front once after school let out. Each one had thought the other one had picked me up; i kept pacing out front until about 7 or 8 pm at night, it was still light out. LOL

    @escomz 8 лет назад +28

    I'm an ethnic South Vietnamese myself who lives in Sydney Australia and you guys are eating Pho wrong!, you need to mix and push the meat into the boiling broth first before you start eating, the meat is supposed to cook while you eat, otherwise you might get food poisoning...

    • @johntruong7646
      @johntruong7646 6 лет назад +1

      Pho takes at least 8 hours to simmer the broth with the secret ingredients to extract all the aromas. People eat wrong all the times even with the locals. When they bring out the fresh herbs, it has been clean/soaked with water to keep its freshness. Tip to remove the excess water by wrapping a napkin to soak up the excess water in order to enjoy an authentic bowl of Pho. You literally can feel through your senses if it's an authentic bowl of Pho or not before adding anything else, like herbs, fish sauce Hoisan Sauce, Chili sauce or even Saliva. Me personally as soon as they bring the bowl of Pho out, I first have my cleaned spoon ready in my hand to taste and feel it!

    You present every city for how the way they are supposed to be presented. Full of art and soul. Looking Forward for more amazing travel Vlog specially with the #dasofam

    Well written, let me get that out there.
    And the places you've shown are pretty much the best places really to check out.

    Your writing is on point. Vietnamese food is my #1 favorite.
