We're tuning in from Saigon after two bowls of pho, one too many iced coffees, and a full-on battle with Vietnam heat and humidity. What starts as a conversation about linen shirts and hotel laundry somehow turns into an unexpectedly deep dive into sardine fasts, shrimp tail psychology, proper s’mores etiquette, and the strange comfort of eating the same thing every day.
Along the way you'll learn about:
-> the best canned sardines they’ve found
-> laundry culture differences between Colombia, the Philippines, and the U.S.
-> growing up between Puerto Rican family parties and academic Spanish dinner tables
-> the science of a proper s’more
-> wine bottle protocol and the pitfalls of potluck dining
-> why enjoying pho on a tiny plastic stool somehow feels like a perfect dining experience
Keep up with our part food podcast, part travel diary (plus a lot of other stuff that will surely keep you entertained).
