here got the beautiful marble ready to go got robes on Deck yes of course we got the bath salts if going to have the bath you got to have the bath salts and of course you know we got the shower in the toilet in separate areas cuz you know when you got those two things separated you’re living the high life we don’t play around with that technology again when you have Street Food a sore you take care of things you need that means a good mattress and a good toilet check it out right here look at that right here we got it looking like we’re in Japan got all the control system right here looking like a cockpit and an airplane and of course you already know oh that is that is some good quality right there okay come on where we at 1 2 3 4 y’all know the rules go test one fold two fold look no breakage it’s soft honestly it is a solid 8.1 out of 10 I would expect a little higher from my toilet paper but you know not everything will be perfect we all have our faults let’s move it on and so I know yall are curious Max can’t be eating street food all the time what’ you got in your fridge well here we go right here hidden got the fridge ooh and I’ll tell you what I’m as shocked as y’all cuz you know what I didn’t think I was a BS go person I thought always thought I was going be a tiger person which I am so I’m kind of surprised to see that in my fridge as [Music] well now some things in life just aren’t as they seem and that’s what this whole production of MTV Cribs has been this episode it’s all fake I can’t afford to stay here I don’t live here I can’t even afford more than one night per year 365 days and I can only afford it’s it’s a leap year I can only afford one day out of 366 days in a year that’s cuz we’re at the Rivier saon this is the most expensive hotel in all of Saigon no questions and we’re in the Executive Suite this isn’t even the panoramic Suite which they showed us but the price difference about gave me a heart attack so how much is this room that much that’s right and that’s why I’m day drinking hello how are you come on in yeah come on in how are youday good how are you I’m what’s your name yes my name is d u t like the country yes oh the this qu be careful when you TCH okay yeah we not touch this I on okay perfect soup in here I’ll pour it later uh your lunch e ready sir perfect so anything going have you no I’m good to go thank you D yes now you’re not going to ever see anybody order as eclectically as I did my gosh I was scanning the menu and first thing caught my eye was wagu pizza I’ve never had wagu pizza together and what better time to try it than in Vietnam I also got the B because I want to try something local I want to see how they could do the local dishes right here and I was actually surprised at the price this alone about $328,000 about $13 uh we got this ready to go got some meatballs some beef and a little I guess like a little like a bitam sausage as well and we got the broth but then I was talking to lady I said what else do I need she’s like you need a salad okay which salad she said the Caesar oh okay so we got the Caesar salad but you got the option of adding the lobster tail which I do believe we can see it sprinkled around here from that gang which is a coastal city in Vietnam for an extra it was a little under 500,000 bit me D and then of course coconut can’t be in this part of the world I have a little coconut there with you so might as well get the most expensive coconut in Vietnam now so they gave us a whole maple syrup canister full of that b broth and I’m hoping this broth is going to rehydrate this meat cuz it was looking a little dry little drier than I want boom actually smells nice got it actually resembles B I don’t get much of the lemongrass but it does have a nice fragrant Aroma coming from it now I like to Dish mine up always like to get just a little bit of lime and just to stay true to the streets I will clean my Chopsticks there’s no need to though but you could let’s pay the respects let’s try the broth let’s see how they did okay not bad got some some oil droplets right here pretty clear not the not the most strong broth I’ve ever seen but let’s try it oh wow they got some chili heat hits the back of your throat a little oilier than I thought it would’ be um doesn’t just have that you know when you get these aunties and uncles when it’s the one thing they sell it’s the one thing they do they cook it they perfect it out on the streets so of course you just it’s hard to Beat the Streets of Vietnam but I tell you what if you needed to fix a craving and a hankering that would do but definitely want to make this Boo as spicy as possible so let’s go get those Chiles in here and give it a little bit of the noodle pool oh why did I wear white this is the worst thing I could have ordered with white or a light blue so you got these noodles here I get with the rice noodle but they’re a little thicker of a rice noodle than what you usually get with like a or so what’s hard about him is kind of like the shirt killers they always just splash broth all over your clothes so we don’t have to get down here all right not bad don’t know what to say about that but you can’t have m without the M or the beef right here so let’s go ahead and give this a try that is a marbled piece of meat right there almost kind of reminds me of like a Taiwanese noodle like a Taiwanese beef noodle um if I was sick definitely e on my bed and I need a broth I probably order that or the P but if I’m healthy I’m just going to walk downstairs that was probably that was probably a bad idea by me but I want to try you never know you never know hopefully the Caesar salad has a different Destiny got the salad tossed some Parmesan cheese croutons and bacon let’s go just try a little bit of everything get some that beautiful lobster tail on there it’s times like this and I’m very glad I ordered a coconut okay not our best star ever but I had Faith because actually if you look at this pizza you look at it looks like it was cooked well I like that burnt on the crust the rise everything and little strips of wagu beef with I do believe what is a sriracha sauce and a little cilantro I think this is going to be promised right here you can see the oil actually leaking off of that beef dripping on top of that pizza so here we go I think this is going to be the best of the best we had check the undercarriage how’s it look little floppy but that’s all right I tell you what if they would have cooked this 30 seconds more this would have been near Perfection I tell you what I love that crust though the rise the gluten coming from it the flavor is high quality and then you bite into the wagoo it melts in your mouth it’s like beef butter mixed with a sundried tomato got a little bit of Tang sweetness from the Sriracha a little Heat this is good it looks crazy or it may sound crazy but I tell you what it actually works by far the best thing on this table now I spent this much on lunch but just to help you next time if you come here just go for the pizza we’ll see you at dinner [Music] boom dinner time we’re we’re all the way out here in District 2 we’re very close to taline we’re in the taline area so we got a place that is Michelin God selected it’s going to be a good dinner I’ve been looking forward to trying here and I I waited for y’all I could have come but I waited for you all right so you got to get a nice little workout as you work your way up we’re head to the third floor uh a lot of little restaurants outside of it but like I said look for that blue G riding on the sign that’s what they’re called sign hello guys how are yall awesome than brother so I kind of like that they do both here some restaurants like all they have is like tasting menus or a set menu but here you can still order all the car if you want but since I just want to kind of experience I want I want them to take me under their wing and nurture me and teach me about this place so I’m just going to do their set menu got a couple options so for the main you can either get the bird or the lobster so we’re going to do one of each maybe maybe cameraman will let me have a bite of there [Music] what okay so first one we got to try out here is the cone we got the deal ice cream in here we got the smoked salmon and the caviar on top so I saw one biter let’s go for it they’re flavors that I feel like are known and you’ve seen together before like dill and salmon but in a completely new way I love that wrapping right there that crunch it’s like a wafer thin crunch mixed with that creamy inside so we got the caramelized carrot and here we have a sauce from Vietnam called cck now usually use cocket when you eat a lot of vegetables so seeing that but not only that but we had Lis sun which is the island in Vietnam and you got the black garlic little puree on top this is the one I was probably most excited out this whole little Trio man to me CET sauce is just one of my favorite things I can dip anything in the Miss with the funkiness of that black garlic from Le Sun that really hits you in the back and the aftertaste oh just gorgeous the way that plays on each other and then that carrot was all about the texture it’s last one St me for a loop you got the the drage pork 28 days Tak came almost a whole month just to make this got it in a little just almost like a little wheat shell right there and then got that foam on top I do believe it was coconut foam is what they said all right it’s f finish off the snacking I never thought fork and coconut could work together like that but something about that that salty that intense flavor from JW aging it makes it so intense mixed with a sweet soft subtle creamy coconut it’s a pairing I never would imagin but it goes together beautifully I just thought the lava was so cool I thought the whole thing with the the the Embers going everywhere and then they pull it off but man he got me with that Tabasco perfume oh he got me choking looking like I can’t take the Heat and I like what’s going on here they got the Cure watermelon you got the oyster beero ham and then they’re taking strawberries from d d is very famous for strawberries when you’re driving through D you just see all the Green Houses full of strawberry farms and they’ve already made a strawberry garao down here garao I don’t know I may have butchered that so I got a little bit of everything like they told me to oh man it’s such a it’s it’s fold like an erupting volcano I mean it comes after you not just the Tabasco I thought the Tobasco would be more but the Tabasco lingers the Basco is the least of your worries there that is beautiful that salty airo ham the way I don’t know what it came from if it came from the strawberry I don’t know if it came from the watermelon but there’s just this full tartness as well all fruity tart ham salty and then the Tabasco just around it all together bring it all together not to mention all the textures with that you crunch to that watermelon you have creamy sauces I mean beautiful that one exceeded my expectations Al was like oh about it hit about here it hit about here [Music] [Applause] [Music] wo man I wasn’t expecting this much of like a show which I actually really respect there a lot of effort a lot of Showmanship going in as well as preparation for the food and the drinks all right so I don’t know if y’all can hear or not but he actually has sea urch and jelly in here onion foam and then he’s got like a black chicken consume so we got to get in here and try all this almost a little Yin and yangang got the cold nitrogen here and I got the my drinks on fire there’s a small spoon it’s going to work better with a small spoon o that one’s actually very bitter bitter but I love that onion foam that it’s almost like a french onion soup but that black I think it’s a black chicken consum got like a bitterness coming from it no it’s definitely that sea Ur SE Ur got this just like you feel its Essence there but does almost like a basaki type of sea urin where it has like a little more of a bitterness from it it’s just something about trying the drink that’s got the fin of a fish hanging out here it’s not on fire anymore I tell you what when they let that on fire I’ll take a drink of that that’s exactly what it’s doing to my brain right now on fire [Music] [Music] ah nice feels better than my hair st25 st2 yeah okay we got the st25 right here one like you said one of Vietnam’s most popular Rices usually export it delicious rice I know a lot of young chefs that when they open restaurants they’re all about some st20 so actually got Lobster foam right here torini again from the st25 that’s what I love to see I love to see like taking inspiration from other culture dry torini coming from Italy but doing it in Vietnamese way with the st25 grain of rice let’s just get it with a little bit of everything bacon broccoli puree at the bottom and just a couple little almost like Ros Krispies on top what’s amazing if he wouldn’t have told me that the tortillini was made from rice I would not have been able to guess so doughy melt in your mouth bold with flavor The Filling is perfect it’s almost got this cheesy creaminess to it but me it’s all about that combination with the lobster foam I could take like I got three I probably could eaten like 30 of these [Music] [Applause] [Applause] [Music] [Music] okay so we got a little little triple bite here a little triple action we’re going to work our way but let’s see how good of a cutter I am oh you can hear that crisp let me just shut up and y’all listen to [Music] this so let’s go simple as first just going to try to get that f f sofs at the bottom and that puree man it actually reminds me the batter you sometimes in Vietnam we get like a dtin which is a rice flour batter coated in a banana and fried up and that that coating on the outside reminds me of it’s light it’s crispy it’s not oily at all but then that inside it’s almost like monkfish liver the way it’s one of the creamiest textures you’ll ever eat in your life but now I got to go back in and I got to get it with the ants so I guess what I’m going to do is get a little bit of everything here try to scoop up some of these ants as well looking like ants are just attacking my dish here little bit of Earth saltiness coming from that you can really taste the addition of those ants and here’s what we got last one and what you want to do is get everything line Leaf ants sauce and that last bite he pretty much said max you got to go for the money bite and here it is that Lime Leaf is that X Factor is the thing that makes that floress just erupt in your mouth and makes you appreciate all the creaminess crunchiness saltiness that is in that bite [Applause] all right so I want to show yall going I have that egg in there there it is you can see that yellow yolk right there beauti a Japanese egg I’m going to get that broken up so again coming from from Vietnam a lot of people when they go eat they’ll call a dish out and pretty much it’s going to be the egg and broth and they’re using it with a twist their own way for a pallet cleanser so reconnecting you to vietamese cold Vietnamese food on the street [Music] High I don’t know who could not love that nice subtle sweetness coming from the F broth and then a delicious delicious egg so this the main course right here ah so this is le le we usually call it Venom so in English you can call it the teal or the sky okay a kind of duck a small duck that can fly in the sky byebye a story when we make this we aim to the farm the fields of vames people all the Asian in commment because when they finish their Harvest they will be left over straws and has all over the future and they going to C it and burn just to clean up and then when we burn that the cross Hopper will jumps everywhere foods and also it a small skit for you you can make rig at home oh I’m taking it for sure thank you I was going to take it if You’ let me or not I mean I’ve been down in like the mechon before where I made like a purse out of I guess it’s like pandan Leaf but somebody made a grasshopper that’s crazy I’m going to I’m going to guess this is pandam leaf [Music] all right so you can pick between mains you can go with the duck or you can go with the lobster so we got the lobster here got the holand day sauce and then they got a little Trio of sauces on the side here oh look at that claw right there oh man I love some Lobster cloth so I’m really looking forward to this oo delicious holiday sauce taking that egg tempering it just right so it’s a gorgeous consistency but for me I’m still ready to try to duck cuz the whole story was just about the duck now I wasn’t much of a duck guy but the way they’re preparing it so much and it cing in the whole story of the set meal it definitely got me excited and that duck sausage looks beautiful actually looking like some pecking duck right here that is a gorgeous skin but to me I just want to go duck sausage with a little sauce here and try this out her basis it’s like this peppercorn florness but to me it’s the textures in there you’re getting a cartilage crunch look like you’re eating the ear of a pig it’s soft and then you get that snap the smokiness that is a delicious duck sausage and then last thing I want to just try to get it all together here so I’m just going to get a little piece of duck they got some of the I think they said a longan and fermented rice here oh you can smell that fermented rice already you can smell that sourness it’s like a nice pepper sauce and some duck M and the pepper corn coming from that sauce I bit into it floral kind of like a green peppercorn just has this this vibrancy to it so for the dessert we name it happiness and you look got a honey waffle which contain some dut fall inside and this is the sauce this my from the lemon gross let’s little for vus SAU and also some liquid nitrogen [Music] also um I’m a little worried cuz there’s a lemongrass mint sauce in here and if they would have had chocolate in here I would have left I would have left running screaming right down the middle oh look at that looking like a parfait got them layers honestly I thought the presentation was actually nice and appealing on the outside but once you cut it through and see that cross-section looking even better oo oh man the balance of tar and sweetness oh we got some apple pie Vibes in there there like the cinnamony this apple that’s coming from it I didn’t see any of that on the menu so I don’t know why I’m getting those vibes but that’s what it’s giving me right there the waffle comb it tastes better than it looks and you may not believe me and as the very last we got a m coffee ice cream in the corn and also on the top there is a fried donut with the butter sauce and also the fish G of a grouper on top of a dough oh by the way the name of this dish is the gift okay when you finish it I’ll be back and explain why we call the gift you give me lots of gifts already so okay you heard him explain this one I was like what the heck when I read the menu I was a little worried cuz they called it fish donut in English so I had to look at the Vietnamese it say B donut so I was oh my gosh it really is going to be a donut with the the flavor of a fish all right let’s do it the way they told me to go for the coffee ice cream right here oh it’s almost down there in some coffee grounds as well you can see a little sprinkle on them right there it’s kind of like a full circle back it reminds me of the first dish I had in a cone tastes just like in Vietnamese we have many different types of coffee like a cafe sad or a Max seal and that tastes like a maxal the way it has like this is very milky component to it but this is the one I’m probably most interested right here the fish dut no better way to finish off tasting than with a fish donut it’s just those little slivers so really you’re just getting almost a little bit of just the saltiness from it little salty sweet very doughy and dense and fried now when you shake this Bo I got to shake it [Music] yeah nice there’s some truffle chocolate I would like to invite you as the very last piece before you go okay it’s a tast set menu that just keeps on giving thank you I guess that wasn’t coffee grounds down here I guess that was chocolate I can’t talk because you’re going to see my dirty teeth okay now that was really fun and I’m not just hyping it up because they let me film like that I’ve been to some fine dining that hasn’t been like that and I really enjoyed that now it cost me this much so that means the total is going to be over here and I think there’s probably no way in heck I went over $1,000 so second time we tried the challenge second time we failed I’m going to learn from my mistakes try to do better catch you at the next one
