The first was doing it for her community. The second for her family to rise. Both are goals and ideally you should do both. I respect the first one a heck of a lot more because I know exactly how petty and selfish a family can become but I cannot say the second is doing the wrong thing.

In fact, the average price of the dish is 25 to 30 thousand VND, equivalent to 1> 1.2 USD.But poor people will come to eat at certain times and days of the week for a symbolic price of 20 cents,During other hours, she still sells at the normal price of 25 thousand and buyers are willing to pay more as a contribution to her kitchen.

Nice, this show is going back to Vietnam. Calvin and Thuyen just make the Vietnam series my favorite.

That 14$ seafood dish looks amazing. The colour reminds me of this thick fish soup we have here in Belgium. I wish Sonny would come over here for our classics: (north sea) shrimp croquets, blood sausage, waterzooi,...

The woman in the beginning I wish her all the best and for her family may they blessed with many blessings 🙏

Any chef that whacks edible gold into a dish just to inflate the price has no dignity or integrity. Oh wow "one is not enough so we put 2"? So next time if he uses 3 pieces he can bump the price to 200 dollars?

the beautiful story associated with the cheaper noodles make it priceless!!

Yaaay!!!! Calvin is back. 😊

Great episode! The authenticity of the banh canh cua of that lady is mindblowing. Its one of my all time favorites of vietnamese dishes (even in the states, not many restaurants even bother to have it on their menu, which sucks) The color of the soup here is so vibrant and rich, you can really see how gelatinous the soup is from being slow cooked and how fresh the udon noodles are. The soup is like drinking creamy bone marrow with a crab essence and is not fishy at all. Her positive attitude for not wanting to change the recipe or lower the standards is awesome enough, and so is the portion size. I want a bowl NOW. Also its great to see Sonny and Calvin appear again!

I'm almost 100% sure that the most expensive bowl is also the least delicious. Simply bc the bowl isn't hot enough. The broth loses like 20 degrees by the time it hits that bowl

It's impossible to stress how cheap that first bowl is. In America, you wouldn't pick a quarter off the ground if your back hurt a little bit.
