You’ve seen Dan on MasterChef, The Streets, and at Mr. Wong, Ms G’s and El Loco — but today, we test his love of wine in the most unexpected way.We each choose a bottle under $200 and put it to the test with a classic Vietnamese banh mi to see which wine matches best with pâté, coriander, chilli, pork and pickles. Will it be a white, sparkling, or a red wine? The result surprised all of us.In this episode, we talk food, Burgundy, childhood snacks, Asian flavours, and Dan’s wine journey — along with his thoughts on wine and food pairing, collecting Burgundy, and why wine shouldn’t be taken too seriously. Come hang out, grab a banh mi, pour a glass, and enjoy the ride.If you love wine pairing, Asian food, banh mi, Burgundy, Champagne, or Dan Hong, you’ll love this one. Don’t forget to like, comment, and subscribe to  ⁨@TheWinedUp⁩   — and tell us in the comments: What wine would YOU pair with banh mi?  👇Thank you to Dan Hong for taking the time to chat with us and share his love of wine and food.  We had a great time and a lot of laughs.Also try Banh Mi Bay Ngo at 49 Bankstown City Plaza, Bankstown, New South Wales 2200.  It was delicious!Follow Us on Instagram (The.Wined.Up) or TikTok (@thewinedup ).Visit our website https://www.thewinedup.com.au/ or email us at [email protected] More, Try More, Learn More#banhmi #danhong #winepairing #banhmiwinepairing #asianfoodandwine #vietnamesefood #champagnepairing #pinotnoirpairing #pinotgrispairing #Burgundywine ,#winechallenge #foodandwinepairing #bestwineforasianfood #sommeliertips #foodchallenge #banhmichallenge #chefdanhong #winelovers #wineyoutubechannel #pairingwinewithfoodChapters:00:00 – Intro & guest reveal: Chef Dan Hong00:30 – The Wined Up Icebreaker Questions08:46 – The Banh Mi Challenge begins 🥖10:44 – Wine A tasting & pairing reactions15:54 – What’s in Dan Hong’s cellar 🍷18:00 – Learning about wine through Instagram & sommeliers23:20 – Wine B tasting & pairing reactions25:34 – Top 3 Asian cuisines debate (Vietnamese, Japanese, Chinese 🔥)29:19 – Dan’s guilty pleasure Macca’s order 🍔33:10 – Best wine pairings for Asian dishes 🍜35:36 – Wine C tasting & pairing reactions37:21 – Banh Mi variations & Sydney’s national sandwich40:46 – Dan’s fitness routine & health balance 💪45:29 – Best Pho & Vietnamese food spots in Sydney51:55 – 80s baby food & nostalgia quiz 🎶54:45 – Wine reveal & tasting verdict59:37 – Dan’s final message on wine & life 🍷01:00:57 – Outro | Drink More, Try More, Learn MoreFollow Us on YouTube (@TheWinedUp), Instagram (The.Wined.Up), Tik Tok (@TheWinedUp), Spotify (The Wined Up), Amazon Music ( TheWinedUp), and Apple Podcasts (The Wined Up).
