What I Found at Vietnam’s $89 Brunch Buffet!!

In this video some of these desserts look like real works of art, they are wonderful. How could anyone eat that? I'll take you on a tour oh yes, it's hot, steamy, juicy and succulent oh, first of all, the most expensive

buffet

in Ho Chi Minh City. Greetings, We opted for the alcohol package so I have unlimited wine for the next three hours. Ho Chi Minh City is the largest city in all of Vietnam, with around 10 million inhabitants. This is a city with lots of food and lots of

buffet

s. I went to a very cheap buffet in the past, but the buffet we are going to have today costs more than 70 dollars.

Right behind me you can see the Caravelle Hotel. The buffet is called Buffet 19. The buffet itself costs 72 dollars and 52 cents, but if you want. get unlimited alcohol, that's 14.54 extra, that's not bad. I mean, going to New York, any cocktail will cost you that much for a cocktail here it's unlimited. Tails, I'm sorry, it's an awkward place to take a breather, let's see if we can get our money's worth, thanks officially. The buffet opens in 17 minutes. I want to get here a little early because as soon as the doors open, people are going to trash this. It never looks better than before people arrive.

Let's take a look and see

what

. type of options they have I've been to other expensive buffets that were a little more spacious here it's very condensed there's tons of meat and it's all together this is all seafood right here we have some Abalone scallops if you come here they have all the Roasted meats. They also have pizza now. I'm not sure who pays $71 and then eats pizza at a buffet, but that won't be meat today since you're coming here. They have a foie gras station. I think they'll brown it a little. a little bit and then maybe put it on some bread, so I'll definitely be coming back for that right here.

Sushi looks very beautiful, they have literally salmon sushi flowers of any fish, that is, they have some rolls, they have some niggity, all that is visible. impressive and delicious are still being prepared a bit, you can tell they are putting some desserts in the dessert area, some of these desserts look like real works of art, look at this, it's beautiful, how could anyone eat that? What to do here, you can get your steak incredibly rare, no I'm just kidding, I think they will cook it for you there, they have some steak and even more seafood, here we have snails, we have other type of seafood. we have lobsters up here shrimp down here and then down here they look like different colors of caviar or fish eggs at least and then here the oysters now do I like oysters?

I don't know, I'm always on the fence, but

what

? I've learned that smaller is better, and then you have to include some Vietnamese sauces, a little lime, maybe a little salt and pepper, so we'll try some of those soon. We have just a couple more minutes before they open and then we're gonna Let's go to the first round. I'm going to start with oysters, which are shucked and unshucked. I'm going to choose the ones that are peeled. I guess these would be local to accompany the sauce is a must. Delicious, whatever it is and delicious, whatever it is.

It's probably salt and pepper here and then some limes on the side. This is a cookie topping tray. Sunny, you're at a buffet. Why would you buy some cheap Ritz crackers? Well, because you can put fun things on top of cookies right here. egg song, these are shrimp eggs and then these are amazing wasabi flavored eggs and then this is just normal caviar. The good thing is to go with the fish eggs. You can also have chicken eggs so these are some diced egg whites and then it looks like a thick whipped cream we have our oysters we have our eggs let's eat first of all greetings we opted for the alcohol package so I have unlimited wine for the next three hours so I bought two sauces at random, they are both kind of vinegar sauce I'm going to put a little bit of that in there, put a little salt and pepper, a splash of citrus, it's soaking up all those sauces, try it, it's Well, it's sticky, it's like a loogie, but the flavor helps a little. only a strong vinegar flavor has been added.

I still don't understand why some people love and adore oysters, like the person holding the camera right now is married to me here a lot of cookies here one cookie I want to point out a couple of things, this is caviar right here, but it's not going to be like the caviar of a sturgeon, it is probably like a cod or some other much cheaper fish and then it is dyed black to make it look like the expensive and fancy caviar that is not. It doesn't mean it can't taste good, although the very high, salty and chewy equipment, I still like it, but it's definitely still an imitation of the real thing.

Wasabi caviar, very, very fine tiny eggs, they explode when you chew them. of wasabi flavor and they told me it's super salty shrimp eggs, intense seafood, I forgot the chicken eggs, chicken eggs, salty seafood, oh wait no, it's just an egg white, this isn't even an appetizer, It's more like a moose bouche, it's just one flavor. a taste of what's to come, let's go out for another round. I'm told this middle section here is for display purposes, you can only eat the food, but you don't take the food from here, you actually order it and then they will cook it for you, so I have lobster, I have abalone and crab , let's go see the foreign food, it looks absolutely delicious.

I think this is garlic and butter and I really appreciate that you can come here and get your fill of abalone. Abalone is very expensive, I stabbed it, it looks spicy and smoky, let's try it. Abalone has the best meat texture, it's almost like eating beef hearts or something, it's very dense, it's got loads of garlic in there, it's buttery, it's rich, it's divine. Divine, the next thing we're going to do here is a popular preparation for many different seafood in Vietnam. When I see it I always wonder why they would put cheese on seafood, my fellow Americans who are watching this, would you ever put cheese on lobster and cook it like this, let's try it I'm going to rip this off right at this moment they sold me the holy cow $71 that looks good interesting butter juice great texture for the meat the cheesecakes I'm getting used to as someone Who is an avid cheese fan?

It still seems unusual to me that they put lobster on this premium meat, but it's working. What's happening? That secret food for my wife turns out that she also wants to eat something. She's very selfish, I know, but. I have to accommodate her boom here, crab. I asked what kind of crabs they are. They said they were normal crabs. What they meant was mud crabs. Look, you can open the top. We all already know. I like king crab and something just big. meaty and you can tear off the meat, although one could promise on the head, they might have some eggs in them, are you supposed to eat them?

Okay, my wife, who happens to be Vietnamese, says it's food, she tastes like food, so it's a tamarind crab. It has a bit of tart sweetness. I ate the part that used to be food for the crab. You have to be careful with that head. That head is full. I'm looking at this. I can not do it. It's sticky. It is small. There are so many. small bits I'm going to give this to my wife because she knows exactly what to do with this and I'm going to go for something more substantial next round I've already eaten a lot of seafood, it's time for some land animals except this one I have to try this, it's unusual, It is my wife's absolute favorite.

I shouldn't use my hand, which is an oyster with melted cheese on it. I think I'm going to try some of this mango, so they're going to cut it fresh. right in front of me, oh yeah, it's hot, steaming, juicy and succulent, okay, come on, come in, okay, so they told me they have a beef option and a lamb option right now, she'll cut me a little lamb that looks tender and delicious and juicy, this is what I really care about, this is the foie gras season, so here we have ordered a fresh order. He'll put five of these little patties in here, you can see right away that they're so full of fat it looks. like he added a little Crisco or vegetable oil, but no, that's just pure fat coming out of each slice.

Well, here we have a beautiful full grass and then these ones here look like I don't know if you were a piece of baby bread, you would. You need to nourish yourself with this, it has a peculiar tone to it, so I'll open the bread and then leave some Foie Grom inside and that might even be too heavy. What time did we go to Hanoi to make a video? about a buffet there and the chef said that he once saw a Vietnamese family eating nothing but foie gras. Well, you'd be surprised that we've had guests at a table of six eat about 150 slices.

Yes, really, without blinking, it is pure fat. They must have destroyed their plumbing I understand you're trying to beat the system it's not worth it regards Rich smooth tender fatty decadent that's how Jeff Bezos feels when he wakes up in the morning I want to try it with that mango sauce because it's so delicious you almost want to cut it with something sweet delicious it's like a mango puree right here oyster lobster with cheese that makes sense to me this is a salty oceanic oyster mixed with cheese my wife said you have to try it you'll change your mind let's see mixed with melted cheese, which It's not a combination I want, but it's pretty good, it just tastes creamy and meaty, okay, I stand corrected, I was being selfish and cheese with oysters, that's pretty good, next we have a lamb look at this lamb sliced ​​fresh for me, a lot, I have a mustard sauce here just to give it a little more flavor, it's lamb, but I can say it's a little bland, it doesn't have much flavor, so I think if you're going to get meat like this here you have to add your own sauces in general it is juicy and delicious it just lacks a little flavors here a big piece of old ham is very funny she gave me this giant slice and then said that's enough this is enough for a soccer player that's nice and That is completely different because with the ham they would put it in a salty brine so the salt is already impregnated into the meat, each bite from the inside out will be salty, soft and tender.

Delicious, it is a good ham. I'm not sure how much more I can fit in my body right now. I'm going to try to do one or two more rounds and then I'll have to quit. Let's go for more, so here's the hard part. About any buffet, as soon as you're three-quarters full, the food starts to look less appealing, and at this point I'm trying to figure out what I want to eat. I have so little room left in my stomach that I really had to choose. Wisely, at this point Sushi, here we have some wasabi paste.

I'll put it on a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. Ginger, important palette cleanser. Heck, they even give you some of this sliced ​​cabbage. It's not in cabbage. I'm going to have some salmon. and then we have some unlabeled fish, oh that looks good over here, some salmon, this here looks like kimbap and finally here some tofu skin with rice, vinegar and sugar. I don't know what it's called, it looks delicious, oh look. in this dish oh my goodness I could be a plating expert the last item missing soy sauce oh thank goodness it's a teapot full of soy sauce let's eat milk check out the 400th course here we have the Japanese section now is this real Wasabi probably No, this is probably a horseradish paste.

First, salmon, look how well marbled that salmon is. You guys are worried about mercury poisoning because you say fish is amazing and has omega-3 fatty acids and then you say don't eat it because it has mercury. Bad, can mercury be for you? You should read books sometimes, greetings, high quality, delicious salmon, which is very good, and then we have this here, a white fish. I was told recently that it's actually sea bass, let's see how it compares to salmon. Fisher not as creamy and delicious as that salmon, but it's good too, maybe a little more fibrous, not a strong flavor.

This reminds me of Korean kimbap, so kimbap usually doesn't have anything raw in it, it would be like cold. ingredients or eggs or roots or kimchi rice things like that you probably know it's probably a Japanese sushi roll cheers, again the flavors don't really stand out the rice feels too frozen I think it's just been hanging out too long it's decent Here, God mine, these are my favorites. I forget what they are called, although they are incredibly delicious. A little ginger to cleanse the palate, okay, let me go see if I can find something interesting for the grand finale of our last term.

I'm getting really full and I've realized after all these dishes and after all these meals that the real strength here is in the seafood, so why deny it here? This is a scallop in chicken shell. They are going to cook it in a very Vietnamese style. with peanuts and shallot oil, it will be delicious, so I will buy some different types of seafood, but I will also buy a dessert, here is a signature dessert. They said you have to try this before you leave. It's a fly, now this is undisturbed, untouched, oh, it's thick. I'm going to get a nice chunk like that.

It's like this delicious thick caramel sauce. Oh, you can see, it has a weight. I already have my dessert. I'mwaiting for seafood. and then we'll sit down for one last course right here we have our last final course. I swear I can't do anything else after this. I want to show you something special. Yes, I've been drinking white wine this whole time, but he came up to us and told us we had cocktails too. How about a Long Island Iced Tea? He said yes, so let's try that mighty one, let's take a look at the seafood, here the octopuses, this is roasted and they actually seem to shrink a little, huh, oh, yeah, delicious, smoky, chewy, I like to feel the suction cups on their little legs and then just put a little oil on it take a deep breath every fat guy was watching this who has been to a buffet knows it's kind of a deep breath you have to do this It's not like I'm breathing deeply like I'm trying to focus on the day it's like I'm trying to stay alive so I can eat more, take a look at this, the feather shell, now, this is a classic Vietnamese preparation, oil of shallot, peanut, it will taste like a little charcoal, applause, as the university moves forward surprisingly.

The top flavor is very nice right here, snails. in Vietnamese it's called My Vietnamese Wife Just Judged Me Because I Didn't Take Out The Poop Bag, Ok, I've Got It On My Mind, Come On, Oh, There You Go, That's What You're Looking For, It's A Big Ugly Beast. It looks horrible but tastes delicious. I'm going to give it a little dip right here in this thick fish sauce. Let's try it. Wait. It makes sensations. It is a mix of textures because the meaty part is excellent. It's crunchy. It's a little chewy. and then the poop part is very soft and warm when I say poop part I mean you are actually eating all the digestive tractors inside it doesn't taste bad it's like a bad day very fascinating overall I like our last thing here yes No I know what flan is.

The flan is a fly of cream and caramel, eh, the pan has a rich toasted sugar caramel flavor in the topping and the base tastes very milky, perfectly sweet and slightly eggy, let's try it, my goodness, it's like taking an ecstasy pill. Except you don't have a hangover the next day, there's like a touch of delicious, tempting caramel flavor, but beneath that a base of intensely creamy milky notes, like a cow dipped its tongue in caramel and then you sucked it, but luckily not you have to suck a cow you can just eat this and it feels a lot more civilized boom we made it 75 different dishes in my stomach right now that will be good for me later we're going out right now and I'm going to tell you my final thoughts guys , I'm trying my best to suction my stomach right now, it's in the wind, it's not helping, oh, there we go guys, that's the end of the video. 19 Buffet, I must say it's more than 70. dollars if you add the drink, for me it's about 85. 100 worth it.

It's not something you do every Sunday, but maybe it's something you do once or twice a year. It's glorious. There is so much food. It's an experience where you can just relax. It's great. time, the people here were amazing, kind, sweet and very attentive, coming every two seconds. Do you need a seventh glass of wine, sir? He probably shouldn't, but he wants more. Yes, what is the answer in the end. I must say that I highly recommend it. Otherwise, is it because of this? Thanks so much for looking. See you next time. Oh, I wonder what the most expensive pizza buffet in Saigon is?

I want a Godfather pizza.
