00:00I'm staying at the Regent Phu Quoc on Phu Quoc Island in Vietnam and it's so
00:10beautiful here I'm tempted to stay all day but what I'm actually going to do is
00:14I'm going to head out and see what it's like around the island. The lush grounds
00:22of Regent Phu Quoc, a luxurious resort on Phu Quoc Island in Vietnam, are so
00:28peaceful you won't want to leave. And they've thought of everything here. The
00:33rooms are spectacular, the white sand beach is to die for, and the food is next
00:43level. Make sure you try the pho soup, it's a dream and traditionally served
00:48for breakfast. But beyond the resort's amazing cooking and those palm trees
00:53swaying in the heat it's well worth taking a trip around the island to see
00:58the real Vietnam. I went to a pepper farm to see how they produce pepper here
01:10on the island and had the most amazing lunch of Vietnamese pancake while
01:14sheltering from the heat in an outdoor cafe among the pepper trees.
01:20But one of my most interesting stops was at a fish sauce factory where I was
01:40able to taste different types of the umami condiment and see for myself just
01:45how important fish sauce is to the Vietnamese way of life. I'm still
01:49searching for where I can find this particular brand of sauce in Australia
01:53and when I do I'll buy it straight away because that salty sweet and meaty taste
01:59will take me right back to paradise and that white sand beach. Ah this is the
02:05life.
