Same people…
but not the same version.

A lot changed in between — especially the health.
Less excuses. More discipline. More focus.

Weight down.
Energy up.
Mind clear.

This journey ain’t just about business…
it’s about leveling up who you are every year.

Respect to everyone putting in the work
when nobody’s watching.

Appreciate my Duma brother from another mother for pushing each other to keep going

Full circle moment.

Do what you love. Love what you eat.

Ok who can explain why they call it Bò Né? 👀🔥
First person get it right you get a Duma shoutout personally from Mr. Gao 😏

(Hint: it’s not just about the beef…)

“Best meal I had in Saigon… and it wasn’t even Vietnamese.”

Been eating nonstop for content, so I’m rarely actually hungry.

But today… I was.
And I’ve been craving this exact kind of Japanese food for months.

First bite… silence.

Everything just hit—the timing, the craving, the ex*****on.

That’s what made it the best meal of the trip.

Do what you love. Love what you eat.

Walking around Hanoi with no plan…
we saw this random chè spot and just sat down.

Didn’t even know…
apparently this place is very popular 😅

And yeah… it was really good.

Funny thing is—I don’t even like sweets like that.
But this one… I kept going back for another bite.

That’s how you know it’s legit.

Now I need your help 👇
If you know this spot…
drop the name + address so we can share it with everyone.

Because spots like this deserve to be found.

The reason I respect fighters… they’re the real hustle.

No shortcuts.
No excuses.
Just discipline, pain, and showing up every day.

Different arena, same mindset.
From the ring to the kitchen — we earn everything.

BEN TRE 3.0 SOFT OPENING TUESDAY 3/24

2008…Started with 500SF space, big dreams, and family standing side by side.

Long nights. Early mornings.
Mistakes, struggles… and moments where we didn’t know if we would make it.

But we kept going. Together.

Every plate we served…
Every customer who walked through the door…
You helped us get here.
