Korean Tourist Eats 4 Bowls of Pho at Once, Loves Every Dish

Heebab (28 years old) is one of the famous mukbang YouTubers in Korea, with a personal channel having over 1.67 million followers.

In December 2024, Heebab visited TPHCM for the first time and was impressed with the local cuisine. Among all, she particularly loved pho. "In Vietnam, pho is the best dish," Heebab commented.

Because of her love for Vietnam's "national dish," in January 2025, the Korean "eating saint" decided to return to TPHCM to enjoy a variety of delicious pho.

In her latest uploaded video, Heebab introduced some unique pho dishes she had the chance to try during this trip.

The place Heebab visited is a well-known pho restaurant on Pham Thai Buong Street (District 7). During her December 2024 trip, she had been there and was captivated by the delicious pho dishes on the menu.

At the restaurant, aside from the traditional chicken pho priced at 40,000 VND per small bowl, Heebab decided to try some unique pho varieties, including Australian beef rib pho, Kobe beef pho, and spicy mixed pho.

Known for her ability to eat large portions, Heebab had no difficulty finishing 4 bowls of pho in one go.

She tried the chicken pho first and loved it, finishing it within minutes. "The chicken is chewy but still tender, and it pairs perfectly with the broth and noodles," Heebab shared.

Next, the Korean tourist tried the Australian beef rib pho. She commented that the beef ribs were stewed to be tender and easy to eat.

"The beef ribs are delicious, even better than I imagined. When dipped in the special sauce, they taste even better," Heebab said.

The famous Korean YouTuber also admitted that the pho broth changed noticeably when adding seasonings like chili oil.

After finishing the Australian beef rib pho, Heebab moved on to the dish she anticipated the most – spicy mixed pho.

She was impressed by the dish's appealing presentation, which included various types of beef and pho mixed with a thick, vibrant sauce.

"Spicy mixed pho has a spicy flavor, and the sauce slightly resembles jajangmyeon (black bean noodles) in Korea. At first glance, it also reminds me of ramen (a signature Japanese noodle dish)," the female YouTuber noted.

Finally, Heebab tried the Kobe beef pho, which was introduced as the restaurant's best-seller, priced at 159,000 VND per serving.

"This pho is truly delicious. The beef is tender and very tasty. It's no surprise that it's the best-selling dish here," the 9X reviewer commented.

The 28-year-old guest noted that the Kobe beef pho had the highest price among the pho dishes she tried, but the quality matched its cost.

"This pho is expensive, but I think Koreans will like it because the taste suits their palate. The broth is clear, with a naturally sweet flavor," Heebab expressed.

In summary, Heebab single-handedly finished 4 bowls of pho, spending nearly 400,000 VND. Among them, the Australian beef rib pho cost 99,000 VND, and the special spicy mixed pho was 85,000 VND.
