    As far as your condiment selection goes: that's what it's there for! One of the best parts of Vietnamese noodle dishes is that there are so many condiments that you can personalize your bowl exactly to your tastes.
    One thing that's tough to get used to coming from North America, is definitely the dog thing. There are dogs tied up all over the place. Sometimes they are "guard dogs", but sometimes it seems like for no reason. And they sit there all day. It's a bit sad for sure. I wanna take em' all home!

    Dude,
    Mikey, you make me miss my country so much.
    Got out since 1975, but had not ever came back to visit yet, over 40 years now😣
    Mikey, I say you just need to by a flat in Việt Nam and make it your vacation home.
    Come back every year and stay for 3 months and go touring from the very bottom of the country to the very North (Hà Nội); then go back South to Sài Gòn again - then fly back to the US.
    By the way, the Whole right side of our Vietnam is 1 super long Beach, Dude!
    🤗Everyone, ENJOY VIETNAM🤗.
    The US Dollar goes furthest in Việt Nam - out of All those countries in that neck of Southeast Asia.
    I am very proud of our beautiful Vietnam and its DELICIOUS FOOD 🍲🤗

    Hi Mike and other food lovers, as a Vietnamese I have a special tip for you. Next time you go to a Pho restaurant you should order a side small bowl of rare beef. In there you have a poached egg, meatballs, rare beef slices, scallions, cilantro depending on the restaurant you go to. Add just few of the herbs and black pepper to it but don't add the hot sauce and black sauce yet. Make sure you ask for few ginger slices to put in your bowl. Now you can taste it and add other condiments to like. This bowl is pretty much just normal bowl of Pho but without the noodle, however the favor is much more intense. It's the best way to kick the hangover from the night before, I guarantee.

I love how the Asian culture is big on fruits, veggies and the ability to create so many delicious foods and drinks. Mike you have such a huge appetite and can manage to keep the weight off and look so awesome. I can't afford to travel, but thru you, I've traveled and witness many exciting places and seen such great food. Thanks Again. HAPPY NEW YEAR! 🎉🎉🎉
