Great to see them eating a wonderful typical meal amongst ordinary Vietnamese. Food looks delicious and conversation engaging. I loved my visit to Vietnam earlier this year.
Aaaaaaarg!! Obama is apologizing to the Vietnamese!!!
Hmmm I’m actually not sure which one I’m more jealous of-Bourdain for getting to have dinner with President Obama or President Obama for getting to share a meal with Bourdain?
I’m jealous of both of them because that food looks pretty great and it’s an hour until lunch and I’m having leftovers PHOOEY
Two amazing dudes right there, enjoying some great looking food.
While right-wing hero George W. Bush is eating hot dogs in Texas.
And the short-fingered vulgarian is forcing everyone at his table to eat well-done steaks.
So long as they didn’t eat chocolate covered crickets or barbecued beetles, I’m cool with that. Is Bourdain the one that goes to countries around the world and eats bugs? I can’t remember…Eh, to each their own.
The crickets, beetles and tarantulas are more commonly found – and avoided – in Cambodia.
haha! I’m struggling with that too. All I know, is the night it’s on, I’m so there!
I wonder how many of the people around Obama and Bordain are aware of who the black guy is?
They seem so unaware/uncaring (blissfully so) unlike here where it would be constant cameras and cell-phone videos and press pushing for a quote.
Kind of cool, kind of fun and a bit interesting. A little snippet of what the President of the United States has been up to on the lighter side of diplomacy.
Cue right-wing media going nuclear over this for… reasons. Maybe that pile of shit Rush Limbaugh will finally blow up his heart screaming about it? I can hope, right?
GWB is not a right wing hero anymore.
Ah, the POTUS, enjoying his lame duck with sauce.…relax, and let the awesomeness roll over you in waves.
That’s Andrew Zimmern, of Bizarre Foods fame.
And Adam Richman is the one who goes around and tries to eat six-pound burritos and two-gallon sundaes. But that’s just a 'Murican thing.
He takes out an Afghan Taliban leader in Pakistan by drone strike, goes to lunch in Hanoi. All in a day’s work. But now he has to assure his Asian hosts who are alarmed at the prospect of a trumpet presidency that he will not win. Vid of arrival in Vietnam.
Thanks. I get American’s ‘famous’ chefs all mixed up. I’ve only watched tempestuous Chef Ramsey on BBC for the most part. Geez…what a total dick that guy is. He seems to enjoy making people cry.
Chopped Phooey? Or Eggs Phooey Yung?
No apologies, but I’m sure he’s leaving some nice tips.
The vid is about Zika…where’s the POTUS?
