00:00:02.190 --> 00:00:04.370
<v Mitchell>In this video, we have included a handout</v>

2
00:00:04.370 --> 00:00:07.520
that goes over how to build a plate in Vietnam,

3
00:00:07.520 --> 00:00:10.730
along with a list of signature dishes.

4
00:00:10.730 --> 00:00:13.560
Make sure to download your handout below.

5
00:00:13.560 --> 00:00:16.480
Secondly, we'll be featuring one of our student athletes

6
00:00:16.480 --> 00:00:18.950
who will be sharing some of his food experiences

7
00:00:18.950 --> 00:00:21.053
while studying abroad in Vietnam.

8
00:00:22.300 --> 00:00:24.610
<v Duke>Any cuisine or foodie advice for individuals</v>

9
00:00:24.610 --> 00:00:26.850
traveling to Vietnam?

10
00:00:26.850 --> 00:00:29.550
<v ->Definitely just try as much of the food as possible,</v>

11
00:00:31.140 --> 00:00:33.180
you never know what you'll like.

12
00:00:33.180 --> 00:00:34.410
<v Duke>Was there any food you packed</v>

13
00:00:34.410 --> 00:00:38.340
along with you to Vietnam, and if so, what did you bring?

14
00:00:38.340 --> 00:00:40.370
<v ->I brought protein powder.</v>

15
00:00:40.370 --> 00:00:42.490
Their diet isn't very high in protein,

16
00:00:42.490 --> 00:00:44.600
so I supplemented with that.

17
00:00:44.600 --> 00:00:45.780
It helped when I was lifting

18
00:00:45.780 --> 00:00:47.923
and working out while I was there.

19
00:00:48.830 --> 00:00:51.340
<v Duke>What was your favorite dish in Vietnam?</v>

20
00:00:51.340 --> 00:00:53.580
<v ->My favorite dish was probably their pho</v>

21
00:00:53.580 --> 00:00:57.200
or this stuff called banzai.

22
00:00:57.200 --> 00:00:58.320
I don't really know how to pronounce it,

23
00:00:58.320 --> 00:01:03.320
but it's like a flat cake, with like, made it tumeric

24
00:01:03.610 --> 00:01:05.140
and you kinda filled stuff inside of it.

25
00:01:05.140 --> 00:01:06.490
It is really good.

26
00:01:06.490 --> 00:01:07.441
<v Duke>What is a typical breakfast</v>

27
00:01:07.441 --> 00:01:08.900
and can you describe it?

28
00:01:08.900 --> 00:01:10.920
How about lunch and dinner?

29
00:01:10.920 --> 00:01:15.350
<v ->A typical breakfast was usually either a roll</v>

30
00:01:15.350 --> 00:01:18.900
and you'd put eggs inside of it and some hot sauce

31
00:01:18.900 --> 00:01:22.040
or you could have a pho for breakfast as well.

32
00:01:22.040 --> 00:01:23.200
Lunch was...

33
00:01:23.200 --> 00:01:24.490
Lunch and dinner were pretty similar.

34
00:01:24.490 --> 00:01:27.840
It's usually just a protein that was either chicken,

35
00:01:27.840 --> 00:01:28.790
not a lot of beef

36
00:01:30.140 --> 00:01:33.400
but there's chicken, fish and there's always fruit.

37
00:01:33.400 --> 00:01:35.130
And then noodles, rice,

38
00:01:35.130 --> 00:01:37.843
white rice was in every meal.

39
00:01:39.200 --> 00:01:41.743
<v Duke>What's the most adventurous food you tried?</v>

40
00:01:44.430 --> 00:01:47.560
<v ->I had like octopus, and like fish heads, stuff like that.</v>

41
00:01:47.560 --> 00:01:50.550
I'd say that's probably the most adventurous stuff.

42
00:01:50.550 --> 00:01:53.050
<v Duke>Can you share with us any food cultural differences</v>

43
00:01:53.050 --> 00:01:54.617
in comparison to the U.S.?

44
00:01:55.640 --> 00:01:56.763
<v ->The style of eating.</v>

45
00:01:57.900 --> 00:02:00.100
Basically when you're sitting at a table,

46
00:02:00.100 --> 00:02:01.880
it's basically just family style,

47
00:02:01.880 --> 00:02:03.700
you passing everything, bowls around the table

48
00:02:03.700 --> 00:02:06.960
and you just pass and reach in and all that kind of stuff

49
00:02:06.960 --> 00:02:09.653
and in the U.S. it's a little more formalized, I think.
