- In this food travel vlog, Trang and I eat cơm tấm, a Vietnamese street food rice dish in Binh Thanh, Saigon, Vietnam. This dish was served with delicious bbq pork, savory pork fat pieces, and warm soup. It was the best street food I’ve ever had in Vietnam in the 7 years I’ve been living here!
The exact location of this Vietnamese street food vendor is:
Com Tam Long Xuyen
30 Đ. Trần Quang Long
Phường 19, Bình Thạnh, Thành phố Hồ Chí Minh
The total price for two dishes was 80k vnd or $3.23.
For any foodies looking for the best street food in Saigon, and quite possibly Vietnam, definitely get some com tam from this street food restaurant!

It's just a small shop, but they surprise everyone with the delicious food they served. ❤ Vietnamese street food are always amzing!
yeah I wasn't expecting it to be so good!
I’m amazed that this channel hasn’t blown up yet. Very enjoyable viewing. Certified Dank ! 👍🏼
Cheers I’m glad you like it! Hopefully the channel reaches more people soon. All the likes, comments, and shares are always really helpful!
This food looks amazing! I've been watching your videos this week preparing for my trip to Vietnam in a couple of days. Thanks for the content.
hope you have a great trip!
This alone makes me want to come back to Saigon!
Funny that I made this comment before hearing you say the exact same thing in the video.
yeah it's worth a flight
I’m willing to book a $1000 flight just to come here and eat and fly back the next day 😅
Love the Tyler and Trang dank food reviews ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ 👍🍔😋
thank you!
Looks insanely good, thanks for the address Tyler, I'll make sure to check it out on my next trip :)
You guys have a nice day !
thanks so much! you have a good day too
Thanks for this, I'll definitely be giving this one a try in a few weeks
awesome I hope you like it!
Way danker than the other place?!?!?!?! High dankness praise indeed.
The ribslook to die for, and I imagine they would be great with a cold bevvy or two❤
super dank! definitely go down well with a couple beverinos
MMM looks so delicious. Gotta get some next time I am in HCMC.
Thank you very much for your time and posting. With all the many videos I have seen, I can't wait to visit all the super nice people. That is what I really want. I've lived in Germany, still the nicest people I have met. Australians were super friendly, but it didn't work for me. So, as long as the 90-day visa works out, I think I will really like it. Thanks again. Side Note: Even your girlfriend said thank you.
PS. :) I can tell you have been there for a long time when you say, "It's a 'pretty good deal', and the cost was US$1.40 for a great meal. ;)
Looks delicious will need to try. Your score is awesome for this place. Love street food😊
yeah very delicious
Great video!!
thank you! glad you liked it
Looks so delicious & now I am craving for com tam. Thks for sharing Tyler❤
glad you liked it!
I want to come back right now and some of the mystical Long Xuyên of mythical dankness 🍻🍻🍻🍻
great video. watched it three times because of you guys enjoying the dish so much :D
awesome! thanks for watching
Looks delicious 😋😋😋 thanks for sharing 😊
you're very welcome! thanks for watching
Your Vietnamese is very good! The bbq pork look so delicious.
Great conversation with Trang. :)
Thanks so much I’m glad you enjoyed it!
Your vietnamese pronunciation is pretty impressive, i would say better than phuc map but he knows more words since he has benn there much longer
Phuc Map is really good at Vietnamese
I am salivating just looking at the barbecued pork. I wished I knew the recipe, I would try and replicate it, although it would be difficult because here in England, they cut the pork chops in thick slices. Thinner is much better because the chop can soak up the marinade.
Well the thinner cuts can soak up the marinade but the thicker cuts can maintain more of the juicy original pork flavor. I think I always prefer a thicker pork chop if it’s not under cooked or over cooked
i suggest: com tam bi suong (rib) op la. thanks for the vid
good stuff
Cool!
Very nice! Love some well cooked pork. Now I know what I want to cook first as soon as I break out the grill.
Got to try this place on my next visit
for sure!
Thanks ❤
You're welcome 😊
You make it sound so good, I wish I would have tried it before I left Vietnam
next time man...not too far from where your wife's family lives
@@BigTimeBentley yeah definitely
I am waiting for the day you rate a dish 10. It would be worthwhile to come to Vietnam to try it.
I don't think I'll ever give a 10...9.9 may be the highest because perfection is elusive if not non-existent...but yeah a 9.9 would be an epic find
i'll be there in 3 weeks for this dish with bbq pork
awesome! tell Khanh I said hi :)
Ngon quá
Damn, that is a really bold statement to make on a $1.70 meal, but I have no way of disputing you on that judgement call. This poor restaurant owner is going to get a bunch of expats and tourists coming to his place suddenly. I hope he can handle the increase in customers. I love that neighborhood BTW. Google Map shows a bunch of places to hangout and drink coffee or eat on D. Tran Quang Long. Maybe you can do a walking tour on one of your future video to show other cafes and eateries available. Thanks, and keep up the good work.
excellent neighborhood for cafes, bars, street food, walking around. I hope the owner gets lots of business he cooks really well
@@BigTimeBentley Is D. Tran Quang Long street in Binh Thanh district now a Little Tokyo #2 in Saigon? I see a lot of Suishi places and Yakitori places on the google map. It looks like it is becoming a little high end and a little hipster too. I kind of like how the Westerners expats are gentrifying that district. I can't wait to look for a nice place to stay there on my next trip to Saigon.
@@eli1570 yea I’d say Pham Viet Chanh is more of a mini Japan town but they’re very close to each other
@@BigTimeBentley Wow, what a great place to live. When are you going to do a video on the apartment that you rented in Binh Thanh? Any apartment near Pham Viet Chanh area will be an improvement from D1 by a lot.
yummy!
Can she take a trip with you to the US and try out some local vn or good ol American foods?
Really 😅😊, she may lost her pronounced 😊😅
My tears are flowing like flooding river
Living in Hanoi, I appreciate your food reviews. Street food here tends to be fish rather than pork.
Awesome I’m glad you like it. Yeah I noticed this dish “cơm tấm” was a lot less common in Hanoi
That was really nice of you Tyler you let Trang eat your ribs :P
You’ve definitely improved in your presentation on the channel. I’ve watched you from almost the beginning. This prob one of the videos you’ve done. The picture looks crisper. New camera?😊
same camera but I appreciate the compliment!
@@BigTimeBentley Lol! Just checking. I appreciate all your hard work.
@@cryptohog420 thank you
I remember l may have been this place before
nice
Wow… this is a momentous occasion! The best com tam in a city where there are probably a million com tam street vendors… just added it to my list for the next trip :-)Thanks!
awesome hope you like it!
😋😋😋
Hey, sorry was just wondering how much a visa is if I want to move to Vietnam aside from the passport to stay there permanently or at least up to 4 years
HELO...CHÀO ...LOVE ❤🎉❤🎉❤🎉
If this is the best com tam place you have ever ate at in 6 years in Vietnam, you should find a way to partner with the owner to expand to a bigger street restaurant with more seatings and bigger/taller seatings for expats and tourists. I like the location next door under the shade tree and red lanterns. Probably less than $10,000 seed money to expand that com tam street restaurant. $10,000 is a small price for becoming a minority ownership/partnership in one of the best com tam restaurant in Saigon. You guys will be creating more employments for a couple more helpers in the expanded street restaurant as well.
something to consider...I don't have much experience in the restaurant business though
@@BigTimeBentley You would be the investing silent partner. Maybe, slowly, he can teach you on how to help out with the restaurant in ways like doing the marketing and advertising, and accounting and payroll for the restaurant. Yeah, but come to think of it, he would rob you blind in this business venture together because TIV (This Is Vietnam). No good deed goes unpunished. Sorry for the bad suggestion.
Hahah hella dank. Someone used to smoke…. I still say Dank too!
Hahaha I see you’re a man who knows the OG origin of the word “dank”
@@BigTimeBentley hahaha I see what you did there.
@@nuocmam714 😎
just order a takeaway and bring it to any rooftop cafe like Landmark 81, Bitexco and so on. How easy it is to enjoy 5-star lunch in Saigon! and of course, no crazy tip at all.
Excellent strategy
Wow, $3.23 bbq pork broken rice for 2 can't beat that.
yeah excellent value for some excellent food
Hello son, Tyler
Where were you yesterday and today?
I haven’t seen your video today
Maybe you get to Cambodia to get a new visa for Vietnam
Ah man, I want me one of those ribs right now. Please send dinner via the internet rib portal immediately.
what's your ribmail address? lol
Hello Tyler and Trang, I am not familiar Binh Thanh area how far it is from district 1 ( Pham Ngu Lao area ? )
The rice dish looks very good. Thanks
Really near
this part of binh thanh is about 15 minutes from pham ngu lao without traffic
I could never eat when it's hot. I would need air condition. I would not survive in Vietnam 🤣
haha you get used to it a little bit but yeah I hear you
No. 2. So, did you notice the person in your video in white? He ate his rib with a fork. Is it an American thing to eat with your fingers and VN thing to eat with sticks and a knife/fork? I thought it was interesting.
How do you compare this with com tam Ba Ghien?
The portions are bigger at ba ghiền, but the taste is better here at Long Xuyên
That pork is pretty thick. I think the thickness makes it juicier and more flavorful. I usually gnaw on the bone until my teeth wears out making my cat jealous.
hahaha I'm picturing the cat right meow
Can you make a video about yourself. How did you come to Vietnam?
How did this place compare to the famous cow tam ba ghien?
Cheaper for sure 😅😢
the pork and rice were both much better here
Tyler paid two dishes of food 3 quid
like that in London is 13 quid
A bit more, I live in London, and can I say here it's very expensive to go out and have a lunch or dinner
I know this district( Binh Thanh)
He paid 3 quid not that bad at all
Does Trang have a CZcams channel?
not yet, but she's working on it
Oooo I need to eat here. Hope you continue journey down the street and try Muslim cơm gà
Your Vietnamese better than us now! Little jealousy
haha it's still a work in progress
If she wife or girlfriend you share everything together. I share everything with my husband. We know each other for 12 years but married for 5 years. My husband white and I Asia. We both got together by god’s
any1 meat right off the grill mix with pork belly tastes better , like anything with bacon
yeah the pork belly was delicious too
I want ribs and pork. Less rice
Not cheap, it’s inexpensive.
synonyms
@@BigTimeBentley cheap sounds inferior, low quality.
@@BigTimeBentley, I think Joe does not like the word cheap in this instance, as it has a slight derogatory meaning, so the word inexpensive is more appropriate, as the food is really good.
Inexpensive has a positive connotation. It describes something that doesn't cost a lot of money. Cheap also describes something that does not cost a lot of money, but it gives a feeling that it is not well-made.
@@joe6131 connotations are essentially subjective.
In my life, describing something as cheap didn’t mean it was low quality, it just meant it wasn’t pricey.
