So wonderful to see you embracing Southeast Asia! Loved how you're seeking out local foods, even those outside of your comfort zone. Kathryn, in particular, had the best reactions!
Glad your visa run was a fun one! You guys were Champs and tried the local food! So fun to see the different foods from different cultures. The durian was a good call to try. It made good content lol
Another fabulous and fun video! Loved Adam’s expression and (sound effects) when he took his first bite of Khao Soi . Priceless ! Liver is an acquired taste though. I could never get used to the taste or texture.Kudos to you guys for trying new stuff. It is a huge part of travel!
As a half lao/thai American citizen living in the states 40 plus years, it is extremely rare to get those crispy gooey small pancake snacks where I live and they are that good. Chicken liver is an acquired taste but it has to be cooked to perfection to enjoy. So yes you probably got some undercooked ones with it. Because I cooked them before myself, I know how to tell which ones are undercooked. Yes, love love love Khao soi and boat noodles.
I love Thailand. I haven’t been to Chiang Mai but I spent some time in Bangkok and Phuket and just really enjoyed the culture. I don’t speak Thai but people were pretty receptive and we figured things out. They seem pretty chill and friendly.
Hello Adventures, Kathryn and Adam, I knew you weren't thrilled with those NASTY food choices. Adam what happened...hahahaha😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊. I know you try that anymore hahaha😋😋😋😋😔😔😔. I've been really enjoying the sights and sounds. Amazing video!!
I am so glad you made it to my favorite place in the world. I was hoping you would make it for Songkran, but it looks like you were either just before or just after. My favorite time there is Yi Ping / Loy Krathong when the air quality is better and it's incredibly beautiful! Goota Love Khao Soy! If you ever go again let me know! So many incredible things to do and see!
I noticed you put your backpack through as checked baggage. You might want to check out Osprey for one of their backpack bags. You put your pack inside to protect it from the baggage handling equipment. Those belts and straps often get caught and damaged. Thanks for another great video.
That would've been nice to have. We also made the mistake of leaving our tripod outside of our bag on the way back. Long story short...we never saw it again and had to buy a new one 😭 Thanks and thanks for watching!
Ohhhh I want Khao soi now! 😋 We’ll have to remember to check out Phil’s recommendations when we’re next in Chiang Mai… we saw Phil in Perth recently- we went to his show. Such a great guy 😁
Heck yeah! It definitely lived up to it! And we visited another Khao Soi shop and could definitely tell a difference between them. It would be so fun to go on a Khao Soi tour!
Most people don't like durian first time they try it but they keep going back thinking there must be a reason why it's adored by many , and before you know it you are addicted.
Im in the "they always love their food!" group so i was laughing at the durian >_< but how about that Khao soi! Def looked. mouth watering! Thanks for bringing us along :)
We do tons of research before we go to a restaurant to make sure it will be good and we're pretty easy to please when it comes to food. The khao soi was so so good! Thanks and thanks for watching!
You guys are brave for trying durians, especially the ripened ones. Because those are quite difficult to eat. I’d recommend the not so ripe one for first timer. They are lighter yellow-colored and stiffer texture if you gently press on them. The smell is also not as strong too. The ones you ate in the video was a big challenge, even some Thais don’t eat those ripened durians. But big props to you guys!👍
Good morning Adam and Kathryn! We are enjoying your trip to Vietnam and Thailand! Lol on the coffee sharing!!! I do not share ice cream! You two have the best drone shots, best information, camera work, editing, and music! You are top notch!!! And y'all are fun!!!
I really like when you guys eat Khao Soi. It's delicious, I understand you guys. And I'm glad you guys love it. Hope you guys will come back again. Love from Thailand.
We just return from Chiang Mai, Pattaya and Bangkok. We took Bolt, the ride sharing transportation. We negotiated a nice AC Honda Civic for $500 Baht round trip ride. We saw the same dogs when we were there. The best place to stay In our opinion is at the Astra Condo next to the Shangri la hotel. Were is your home base in Vietnam? Danang is are favorite city in Vietnam.
That sounds like an epic trip! We hope to spend lots of time in Thailand in the future! We stayed at the Astra Condo in Chiang Mai! It was nice! We didn't have a home base in Vietnam. We traveled south to north over 6 weeks
You have to try a ripe good durian. That one that you eaten over ripe, it look mushy. The first bite grilled chicken is chicken heart, that why its taste like chicken red meat. And the rest of it is chicken liver, it is soft and creamy taste. like your video ❤️, please com back to Thailand.
That food 😋😋😋…the mango sticky rice! I really enjoyed Adam’s reaction to the durian! 🤣 Kathryn, you were brave to try the liver! Thailand looked really cool and your ride to the temple was very fun! That temple sure was gorgeous! Great video!
Oh man...I miss that sweatshirt! Sadly, that hoodie died in an extremely hot dryer in Dawson City, Yukon 😭 It is from Northwest Vibes Supply Co. www.nwvsupplyco.com/collections/hoodies/products/sasquatch-bus-hoodie-navy (recognize the model? 😉😂)
What a trip! Loved the food tour and I love chicken livers but have never tasted durian although, like you, I've heard a lot about it. Never smelled it either. You guys were real sports to try it. Not sure I could do that! I will try just about anything except Balut! Ever heard of that? lol
Love to watch your videos & welcome to South East Asia! You definitely have to visit Chiangmai during the Yee Peng Lantern Festival， it is so spectacular! A must-see event in Thailand! And do visit Chiangrai if you have time 😊
I just got back from Chiangmai in January I have been around everywhere anyway durian that you had is too ripe if you have tried the one that not softly you would like it , have fun 😊😊😊
Born in Saigon and live in the US. I prefer to eat frozen durian over fresh one. With durian, you either love it or hate it. There is no in between. I am glad you both gave it a try 😊
@@AdventuresofAplusK Mrs. Kathryn you remind me of Ms. Samantha Brown. She is a prominent travel host and a native of Dallas. My girlfriend and I love watching you and your Hubby's facial expressions trying out new food and coffee. You guys are so funny and match together. As for Durian Fruit it's a try it once type of affair🤢🤮, but in Kula Lumpur, Malaysia they do have it in ice cream format and I heard it's good. You both enjoy Hanoi and Northern Thailand and be safe.
I really have enjoyed seeing all the places you both have visited. I thought the foods were interesting. I like how the airport spoiled you before boarding AirAsia. I loved this video.
I have enjoyed all your SE Asia videos. 🤩 I’m glad you had a chance to check our Chiang Mai! I absolutely love khao soi, too. 🤤 Ironically, I stayed in an Airbnb really close to that khao soi shop and told myself I need to try it after finding it on Google maps... I never did. 😂 Now I for sure need to go!
Thank you so much! Chiang Mai was amazing and we really want to visit again and for longer! If you're still there we definitely recommend you check it out!
Loving your vlogs, been following you since you took the ferry to Vancouver Island. I have to say you guys can eat and eat lots of food! Good going Katherine on eating the durian. It is a strange smelling fruit. I lived in KL for a short stint and man did the air around garbage cans stink during durian season.
I was so excited to see your guys’ reactions to trying the durian because I was also excited to try it earlier this year when I was in Chiang Mai myself. My reaction was a lot more Team Adam, lol, but I totally agree that it tastes like mangos and onion but also with garlic powder. Never again, lmao! You both were so brave in the sizes of your first bites I gotta say 😂😂
OMG, maybe we will see each other in Vietnam. ☺️ Just watched your Vietnam videos and I will follow all the places. Thx for the great video. You guy are gorgeous 😍.
@@AdventuresofAplusK What a pity. 🦭 Thanks anyway to give me an overview what I can expect in Vietnam. 💕 I really love your vlogs, never got bored from both of you.
Another great video! I love how willing the two of you are to new foods. I have to ask, do you take medication while traveling internationally to prevent stomach bugs?
K eating durian is like watching Violet chewing the Three Course Dinner gum in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory! Hhmmm tastes like onions.....now I'm tasting mango....
I never got excited about food but since watching your travels and dining I am going to try some oriental this year. At almost 70 I think I have missed out in a lot of good food. Going out to eat should always be a treat. 👍👍🏍🏍🏍🙋♂️
Hello from Texas y'all. I was born and raised in Thailand. I'm excited to see you enjoy your time in Chaing Mai. All the food you get to tried there, OMG! I am so jealous. Kanom Krok is nearly impossible to come across here in the U.S. also I love Durian so much but I hate the super ripe ones that you had, it was way too ripe, like bad. I felt so bad for you.
Howdy! We had such a great time in Chiang Mai. Can't wait to go back one day! The durain was tough! We'll have to give it another try! Thanks and thanks for watching!
In fact, Thai food or Northern food has more than Khao Soi or Sai Oua, what you might miss is to taste "Laab Khwai" which is a local food of Chiang Mai, the interesting thing about Laab is the ingredients mixed. It's a larb dish, of course one of the most famous larb restaurants there is "larb ton khoi" and of course the food of the north is more advanced than just the taste and appearance🔥😋🥰
I avoid burning season in SE Asia too. The street food samplings were great with nice bokeh in background. That Khao Soi was a more original presentation than in the Oregon trip. Like banana and mango, you might want to re-try the Durian when it is almost riped which is when it's not gooey sweet which makes a difference for me and still holds its form. I'm surprised you guys didn't get to try\find "miank"(mortar rice with lemongrass, noodle, amuse bouche style) in Chiang Mai... If there, I would eat and walk all day if I can stay slim.
There are many types of durian. The one you took is not a good one. Even for Thais, we don't really eat that type of durian. If you want to give durian another try, I suggest you to buy from a good supermarket. The one you need is called "Mon Thong" and ask for the one that crispy outside but soft inside.
Personally, I love durian! After living in both Vietnam and Malaysia, we had access to really fresh stuff. We actually tried durian flavored things BEFORE trying the actual fruit, and they were actually more intense! 😂 Mango sticky rice is definitely the best dessert of SE Asia though, in our opinion. SO GOOD. Nice to see you guys seriously made up for that nightmare flight! ✈️
You don't hear that often! We thought about trying durian ice cream or something, but we're still recovering so it may be a few years 😂 Mango sticky rice was awesome!
I'm Thai American. I've been a fan of your channel for a long time. I'm glad you guys enjoyed Thailand. I don't hate durian, but I'm not a fan of it either. The ones you tried were way too ripe, I think. Good durian should be firmer, which should also give out a lot less "aromatic". Not saying you should give it another try, but mushy durian isn't a good representation of the fruit. 😅 Hope you guys go back to explore more of Thailand especially the less touristy scenes. :😊
What cell service do you have? Just wondering because I currently have T-Mobil and my first time flying to Sweden! I want to make sure my service works. Thank you once again for sharing! ❤😊
We have Verizon, but it we had to buy a sim card for Vietnam and didn't have cell service in Thailand (you need a Thai sim card). I would check your plan with T-Mobile if you will have service in Sweden. Each plan and carrier are slightly different. Thanks for watching!
You can get khao soi all over Texas. Texas is actually one of the best Asian food states in the country. They even have Asians chain restaurants that you can't get in other states or elsewhere in the Western world.
Awesome! 99% of the Thai places we’ve eaten at in the US haven’t had it on the menu, but we also haven't been to every Thai restaurant. When we find it on a menu, we get it though! What are some of your favorite spots to get khao soi in Texas?
I know you are in Thailand in this episode, but my question is about Vietnam. I was in high school when all of our male friends were given draft numbers and being shipped off to Vietnam, a war that we as young people were all opposed to.. So thats what comes to mind when I hear Vietnam. My question is if you are going to visit any memorials to all our boys that died over there in the war?? What you have shown of Vietnam is quite beautiful and thank you for sharing that part.
Comparing to Pho, which one do you like more? Pho or Khao Soi? In Thailand, we rationally and politely honk, even Vietnamese tourists applause us. For Durian, there are many kinds. You should try Mon Thong first which is crisp on the outside and soft inside.
We'd choose khao soi over pho most of the time I think. We love both though! haha yeah the honking cultures are drastically different! We had no idea there was so much variety in the durian. We definitely need to try it again Thank you!
Welcome to Chiangmai!! If you come to Thailand any city, you will see the people who are more kind to you. By the way, the durian you tried is the bad taste or grade. Usually the best grade durian is at southern or eastern not northern.

Thank you! We had a blast!
You guys are being a good sport with the durian 😂
Khao soi is one of the few rare dishes that when you taste it for the first time it's like OMG! Where have you been all my life!!
heck yeah!
Glad your visa run was a fun one! You guys were Champs and tried the local food! So fun to see the different foods from different cultures. The durian was a good call to try. It made good content lol
Wonderful stuff, this channel is the spiritual inheritor of what Kara and Nate once were
Oh the faces and expressions trying all the different foods. Kudos for stepping up and trying the durian. Thanks again for another great video.
Another fabulous and fun video! Loved Adam’s expression and (sound effects) when he took his first bite of Khao Soi . Priceless ! Liver is an acquired taste though. I could never get used to the taste or texture.Kudos to you guys for trying new stuff. It is a huge part of travel!
The taste of liver was ok, but it was the texture that didn't sit well with us. The Khao Soi though was delicious! Thanks and thanks for watching!

Everyone we met were very friendly and kind! Chiang Mai was amazing!
Love that you guys love Phil! We love him too!
The way you both explain the flavors of the food, and your facial expressions. So cool.😂👍😊🇹🇭
Thank you!
Ah...memories of the War and Thailand !
Love the interesting food reviews 💛 Gorgeous views…
Thanks, Donna!
Love your video's and just received my T-shirt, thanks it's great. 👍
That's so awesome! Thanks so much, Jim!

Some of those foods were tough to stomach! haha But it was fun to try!
20:55... First time I've seen K make a face while eating something. How cute!
I am so glad you made it to my favorite place in the world. I was hoping you would make it for Songkran, but it looks like you were either just before or just after.

Thanks and thanks for watching!
Thanks for the whilrwind tour of Chiang Mai area. Looks like a ton of good food to try too.
It's lunch while watching this and you're making me hungry!
Gotta bring a snack, Bert!
Ohhhh I want Khao soi now! 😋 We’ll have to remember to check out Phil’s recommendations when we’re next in Chiang Mai… we saw Phil in Perth recently- we went to his show. Such a great guy 😁
Glad you got a "taste" of the city! Thanks for sharing!!
Your food adventures are amazing! Do you ever have tummy issues from all the foreign food?
Khao Soi looks amazing! It's nice when a food you've been wanting to try for a long time lives up to the expectation.
Heck yeah! It definitely lived up to it! And we visited another Khao Soi shop and could definitely tell a difference between them. It would be so fun to go on a Khao Soi tour!
Fantastic, thanks for sharing. We never made it there.
Welcome to Thailand 😊 Khao Soi Lung Prakit is absolutely incredible!!! Not a durian fan either but at least you tried it.
The khao soi was sooooo good!
Most people don't like durian first time they try it but they keep going back thinking there must be a reason why it's adored by many , and before you know it you are addicted.

Thank you so much! ❤ That made our day!
Hello from Korea.
So fun and very informative. I like the way you explain. I love to watch your video.
Thank you and thanks for watching!
It's amazing what you can do in a city in one day.
We try to pack it in!
I really like when you guys eat Khao Soi.
It's delicious, I understand you guys. And I'm glad you guys love it.
Hope you guys will come back again. Love from Thailand.
Glad you guys made it there and had fun
I'm loving your videos!!!
Thank you and thanks for watching!
It's always enjoyable watching your vlogs. Thank you and happy travels.
Thank you and thanks for watching, Sally!
Great video!
Special thanks to your excellent information & fantastic experience... Chiangmai & Lanna cuisine, friendliness are so unique...
Thanks and thanks for watching!
good video and I am proud that you happy in Thailand. Thais welcome to you. Have a good trip .
❤
Really fun to see this. I am glad Adam was able to enjoy the third bowl. He is such a trooper.
The Khao Soi was goooood!
Those noodles look amazing! I think Im going to try and make that.
Travel plus being foodies and coffee lovers = best vids 😎
Woohoo!
We just return from Chiang Mai, Pattaya and Bangkok. We took Bolt, the ride sharing transportation. We negotiated a nice AC Honda Civic for $500 Baht round trip ride. We saw the same dogs when we were there.
The best place to stay In our opinion is at the Astra Condo next to the Shangri la hotel. Were is your home base in Vietnam? Danang is are favorite city in Vietnam.
That sounds like an epic trip! We hope to spend lots of time in Thailand in the future! We stayed at the Astra Condo in Chiang Mai! It was nice!
We didn't have a home base in Vietnam. We traveled south to north over 6 weeks
It is so fun watching you enjoy or not enjoy the food!! 🙌🙌
Great video! The drink is Thai Ice Tea, chai and condensed milk. Highly addictive! 😊
You have to try a ripe good durian. That one that you eaten over ripe, it look mushy. The first bite grilled chicken is chicken heart, that why its taste like chicken red meat. And the rest of it is chicken liver, it is soft and creamy taste. like your video ❤️, please com back to Thailand.
Oh that makes sense then! The top bite was way different!
Thanks and thanks for watching!
Welcome to Thailand
Y’all are the best 😍😍
Well done again!
Outstanding guys ❤
That food 😋😋😋…the mango sticky rice! I really enjoyed Adam’s reaction to the durian! 🤣 Kathryn, you were brave to try the liver! Thailand looked really cool and your ride to the temple was very fun! That temple sure was gorgeous! Great video!
It was a fun whirlwind of a tour!
That staircase was awsome but the food 😮👍👍
I know you mentioned this in an older video, but where did Adam get his Pacific Northwest sweatshirt? With the yellow van and the Sasquatch? Thanks!!
Oh man...I miss that sweatshirt! Sadly, that hoodie died in an extremely hot dryer in Dawson City, Yukon 😭
It is from Northwest Vibes Supply Co. www.nwvsupplyco.com/collections/hoodies/products/sasquatch-bus-hoodie-navy (recognize the model? 😉😂)
What a trip! Loved the food tour and I love chicken livers but have never tasted durian although, like you, I've heard a lot about it. Never smelled it either. You guys were real sports to try it. Not sure I could do that! I will try just about anything except Balut! Ever heard of that? lol

Chiangmai in January I have been around everywhere anyway durian that you had is too ripe if you have tried the one that not softly you would like it , have fun 😊😊😊
thanks and thanks for watching!
What a fun day! The gold temple is so pretty!😍Y'all are brave, I don't think I could try either of those foods.😄Great video as always!
Yes the temple and views from it were so gorgeous! Thanks!
Nice to see how you enjoyed Chiang Mai. Are you planning to come back soon?
We'd love to return, but don't have any immediate plans. Thanks for watching!
What an adventure filled life! Fun, intriguing and funny especially the Durian tasting. Yuk! 😂
We have a lot of fun! We're lucky and thankful. Thanks and thanks for watching!

It is a strange smelling fruit. I lived in KL for a short stint and man did the air around garbage cans stink during durian season.
If you’re still in Vietnam, I suggest you go to Mui Ne, Phan Thiet. There’s much to film there!
We'll have to check it out next visit!
The way Kathryn took a bite of the durian and said, "huh" 😂😂😂
😂
I was so excited to see your guys’ reactions to trying the durian because I was also excited to try it earlier this year when I was in Chiang Mai myself. My reaction was a lot more Team Adam, lol, but I totally agree that it tastes like mangos and onion but also with garlic powder. Never again, lmao!

K eating durian is like watching Violet chewing the Three Course Dinner gum in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory! Hhmmm tastes like onions.....now I'm tasting mango....
haha good one! That's accurate!
All the food looks amazing. I think this is the first time I’ve saw Adam reject a food!!! 🤣
haha we're both pretty easy to please with food!
I tried Durain in Singapore recently. I can live without it. Prices ranged from $12 - $48 for a tray.
Thanks
We looking for you to return. Many things in Thailand to explore. Hope next time you will visit whole country.
Yes we want to spend a lot more time in Thailand next time!
maybe you shoudl try the durian shake first and see if you like it
We wanted to jump in feet first!
I never got excited about food but since watching your travels and dining I am going to try some oriental this year. At almost 70 I think I have missed out in a lot of good food. Going out to eat should always be a treat. 👍👍🏍🏍🏍🙋♂️
Asian food is one of our favorite cuisines! Let us know what new dishes you try!
Though I'm not a fan of durian but I do like it with sugarcane juice, I just had it today in Vietnam and it was amazing
Oh interesting. That would make it a little more bearable I think!
So fun to watch y’all in a city that I have been to and trying all the same foods, except for the durian and liver. 😂
The foods were fun to try! Thanks, Ruth!

thanks A+K
Personally, I love durian! After living in both Vietnam and Malaysia, we had access to really fresh stuff. We actually tried durian flavored things BEFORE trying the actual fruit, and they were actually more intense! 😂
Mango sticky rice is definitely the best dessert of SE Asia though, in our opinion. SO GOOD.
Nice to see you guys seriously made up for that nightmare flight! ✈️
You don't hear that often! We thought about trying durian ice cream or something, but we're still recovering so it may be a few years 😂 Mango sticky rice was awesome!
That durian was overripe, guys. You should buy durians at TOPS supermarket, they have reliable sources of durian farms.
Good to know! Thanks!
I'm Thai American. I've been a fan of your channel for a long time. I'm glad you guys enjoyed Thailand. I don't hate durian, but I'm not a fan of it either. The ones you tried were way too ripe, I think. Good durian should be firmer, which should also give out a lot less "aromatic". Not saying you should give it another try, but mushy durian isn't a good representation of the fruit. 😅
Hope you guys go back to explore more of Thailand especially the less touristy scenes. :😊
What cell service do you have? Just wondering because I currently have T-Mobil and my first time flying to Sweden! I want to make sure my service works.
Thank you once again for sharing!
❤😊
We have Verizon, but it we had to buy a sim card for Vietnam and didn't have cell service in Thailand (you need a Thai sim card). I would check your plan with T-Mobile if you will have service in Sweden. Each plan and carrier are slightly different.
Thanks for watching!
Durian is the “King” of fruit! 😆🤣👍🏽
You can get khao soi all over Texas. Texas is actually one of the best Asian food states in the country. They even have Asians chain restaurants that you can't get in other states or elsewhere in the Western world.
Awesome! 99% of the Thai places we’ve eaten at in the US haven’t had it on the menu, but we also haven't been to every Thai restaurant. When we find it on a menu, we get it though!
What are some of your favorite spots to get khao soi in Texas?
You must try PAD KRA POW .... This dish is the real Thai national dish.
Yum! Next time!
orange drink probably has turmeric
Hahaha poor Adam 😂
I know you are in Thailand in this episode, but my question is about Vietnam. I was in high school when all of our male friends were given draft numbers and being shipped off to Vietnam, a war that we as young people were all opposed to.. So thats what comes to mind when I hear Vietnam. My question is if you are going to visit any memorials to all our boys that died over there in the war??
What you have shown of Vietnam is quite beautiful and thank you for sharing that part.
I don’t think there are any memorials for fallen American soldiers in Vietnam. We have been to the Vietnam War memorial in DC a couple times!
Comparing to Pho, which one do you like more? Pho or Khao Soi?
In Thailand, we rationally and politely honk, even Vietnamese tourists applause us.
For Durian, there are many kinds. You should try Mon Thong first which is crisp on the outside and soft inside.
We'd choose khao soi over pho most of the time I think. We love both though!
haha yeah the honking cultures are drastically different!
We had no idea there was so much variety in the durian. We definitely need to try it again
Thank you!
Try Durian chip next time you go back to Thailand. I hate durian but durian chip is awesome!
Welcome to Chiangmai!! If you come to Thailand any city, you will see the people who are more kind to you. By the way, the durian you tried is the bad taste or grade. Usually the best grade durian is at southern or eastern not northern.
