- Is this Mongolia's greatest or worst meal?! 🇲🇳 I came to a popular restaurant in Ulaanbaatar to try some delicacies that this country has to offer.

I like this one. And Kudos to George, such a wholesome character!
Top guy!
1:24 George already sitting at the table before they even met 😅
😂😂😂😂😂 nah that’s bald 👀🤦🏼♂️
George (the random stranger) apparently forgot to remove his phone from the table prior to stumbling upon Ben as a random person to review the menu for the non local tourist! Quality acting all around! :-)
I didn’t notice that but now I rewatched 😅
you can see him sitting in front of Ben also before "randomly" joining 😂
😂😂 I noticed that too!
My acting skills not good enough? 😝
i feel betrayed
Such a natural meeting interaction with George. LOL.
Mongolia is a beautiful country and the food is great. I moved here from America in early 2022 and have never regretted it
It is very dangerous for you to go there, Mongolia is being surrounded by Russia and China, it is very dangerous
Today I was George! I am a Paris dude, and at lunch offered to help a Japanese couple with some menu translations/tips. They where very pleased with the veal kidneys!
Everyone must learn from George
Ah, Paris. So you helped them translate into Somalian then?
@@BackpackerBen Head off a lamb you legend
I suppose you could have checked the English section of the menu out
Nice of George's phone to transport itself to the table before he walked over. Really sweet of George to give you some tongue, nice of him.
Mongolians seem so friendly and hospitable!
Great videos from Mongolia Ben. Always been really interested in the place, so thanks for showing us.
2:27 Blimey his phone arrived earlier than him 😂
👀
You are a true adventurer, which is why I enjoy your channel so much!
I appreciate that! Cheers for watching
Another fine video, Ben. But also, I love the thumbnail! Fantastic artwork.
Great video mate,I like to see how the food is like there
Super! Beautiful country, my next destination ❤
What a great meal! Great video too ❤
Hey Ben long time lurker here. Just wanted to say I`m really enjoying your videos. Especially in the exam period as an escape from reality. Keep up the good work.
Excellent series Ben! George looks like a cool guy. He reminds me of Harald Baldr's Korean friend Noodles.
I love your accent and channel, very good and funny content, thanks a lot
I get that there's not much content in Mongolia, but regardless I love these videos so much. Mongolia is such a quiet country nobody ever makes any videos on, I'm glad that we can see a little into the country with your perspective!
I’d say it depends on what content that you’re trying to make. Obviously you wouldn’t make city contents such as Japan, Korea, Hongkong Taiwan and other south East Asian countries but I truly believe if you’re adventurous enough you’ll get enough content from the country as a whole. I’ve been going back and forth since 2014, truly haven’t discovered everything that Mongolia has to offer me yet. Everytime I visit there’s always something new to learn or to see but I guess it’ll be quite boring for some so I get it but still, dnamen?
Hats off to you Ben for that Fear Factor style dinner course, I almost spit up a few times. You're a champion!
Loving the Mongolian content and food, thanks Ben. I'm sure Kat is envious of your lamb head experience.
Lol, I think she had a lucky escape.
Thanks George for joining Ben yourself. Other Mongolian videos don't have locals joining in easily.
Agree Ben the food looks propper lush, great series Bro really enjoyed it : @ )
Great Mongolian food presentation guys 👍one of the best for the cold winter food 👍😎Thanks for sharing and take care guys 😁😆🤣Well done 👏😁✌
Great content
Great to see Ben , I have been here Since May 17th never had a bad meal , allways good and new tastes eating with great friendly people
Your boy George with the Oscar winning performance
Your funniest expression was in Indonesia while eating a Durian and that one beats every food challenge you've taken so far.
The lamb's head genuinely looks tasty, proper nose to tail eating, shows real respect for the animal that was reared for eating.
Huh. I once ordered a dish pretty much at random off the menu in a Brazilian restaurant (any Brazilian should be able to say the name) - tasty stew with pork, only towards the end of the meal I noticed I was eating what were unmistakeably the pig's ear and snout. I felt really sick and disgusted - I was vegetarian for 5 years and that may have been the closest I've come to going back to that since. But what you said changes my feeling about it..I guess eating indeterminate hunks of fat and muscle of an animal we didn't slaughter ourselves lets us forget here it came from
@helvete_ingres4717 I’m assuming you’re also from the West where we don’t tend to eat things like that, but you should really give it another shot. Why let that good food go to waste if the animal is already dead?
WHAT A PITY THEY LET THAT EYE PUPIL GO TO WASTE ! 😂 🤣 😂
The asshole is the sweetest tenderest meat known to man
We don't waste any of the animal here and it is all free range fed,no drugs like used on animals in other countries
Yesterday I commented I was glad for you that you went around with locals. But I thought, you should try to eat boz (dumplings). And today I watch and you do eat boz and local meat. Haha. 👍🏼😃You get so much more inside information hanging out with local people in Mongolia. I hope you’ll also go and experience the life of nomads/herdsmen. All the best, from Amsterdam.
The trip videos have been freaking sick so far been, once I leave the military here in the us it is definitely one of my dreams to first visit a country like Mongolia after seeing your vids. Keep up the good work :)
So awkward that Georges phone was already on the table haha. The food looks class though.
Well spotted
My friend and I ate at Nomads when we were in UB back in 2016. We got the khorkhog and an order of khuushuur. It's expensive but the portions are large. I wanted to get the lamb's head but my friend would have been grossed out. She made it clear a sheep's head (including the eyeballs) wasn't an option.
Glad to see you're a carnivorous alpha male and not one of those effete, sissy vegan types!
I did eventually get to fulfill my wish of eating a sheep head, but it was at a Mexican restaurant in L.A.
I was vegan several years ago for 5 months! Worst time ever I was brainwashed completely by the propaganda. Never again
It's basically sause that you ate!! That's what we call it in America, it's just not all ground up together and made into this jelly like meat with spices, but it's really delicious though! Well to me lol Enjoying the Mongolian series Ben👍🏻🤘🏻
I feel like it’s the psychology of the actual body parts i agree tongue is good, i couldn’t do eye or ear either but i think if they just ground it all and made it i to a sausage or a patty itd be ok. Great video Ben sometimes i want to give up traveling but people like you keep me going!!!
that lamb head seems truly authentically Mongolian!
everything else is good except eyeball
I had no idea Mongolia was that modern. Nice restaurant and the food did look really good!
Countrys outside of Western countrys are offen was more modern by the way. I lived in few estern european countrys
Welp 70% of Mongolia lives in urban areas. The biggest of them all being Ulaanbaatar which by itself boasts half of Mongolia's population
I like the steppe. I want Mongolia to be mostly steppe and freedom
Cracking thumbnail ben.
Your a legend bro
In your vids always i found interesting when it comes to matter of food😅i always admire your true confession in terms of food❤
Ben this is quality viewing. I was hoping for an insight into Mongolian food. Sorry Bald went but loving your content,
George seemed like a good dude and you are pretty brave for trying that meal Ben 👍
very impressive ben good effort
The salty milk sounded like Ayran, a traditional Iranian drink that's also commonly found throughout West and Central Asia. This one looked plain, but the Iranian version is often loaded with mint and herbs. Tastes delicious.
Smoked sheep head is a local tradition where I am from west in Norway. Always interesting to see how other countries prepare the sheep head. Look delicious.
Ahh, that'd be good I bet
Yep, the food there looks amazing. I agree. Packed with great looking meat, which is something you rarely see in some of these videos. The colder places always seem to have the greatest cooking.
Jorges phone just magically appeared on his side :D
It was fate 🤪
😂😂
@@CallieMasters5000well done genius
Cringe setup under the guise of unexpected Mongolian hospitality, completely random encounter so kind peoples 😂😂😂😂
Ben your a braver man than me. Can believe you ate the eye but good on ya for trying. ✌️❤️👍
Fair play for getting stuck in there Ben! George seems like a top guy!
In Norway the sheeps head dish is called Smalhove, you down the eye in a shot of aquavit. The half sheeps head is served with turnip and potatoes which was quite familiar as a Scotsman!
Most scandinavian food seems to be more like challenge food than actual good food to eat
Yikes! Couldn't do it! Brave man Ben! George seems like a super nice guy!
Bens got himself a taste for mongolian beefcake.
Your Mongolia content has been amazing. Well done!
Cheers Dave
Your food vlogs are awesome as usual 😎
Delicious Mongolian meat, flavourful and delicious!
Only one mistake! George had left his mobile phone on the table (side of the table, which he eventually occupied) before he came to introduce and help you!!! :) :) :)...........
The plot thickens
It is like watching meal time with Hannibal the Cannibal. A conversation stopper....I am not too keen on the ear or the eye, but the tongue and cheek are tasty.
Brave trying the eye and ear ! They eat some unusual body parts here in China too, but thankfully I haven’t seen ear or eye on the menu yet although I’m sure they are eaten 😂 Chicken feet and ducks neck are pretty popular snacks here!
middlekingdomproductions Stay away from bat
Нашел с кем сравнивать😂! Увас в китая едят все, все что ползают, плавают, летят, бегают! Вы же нечем не брезгуйте! Увас перенаселенность, и изза этого увас еда натурального нет, все исскуственное или выращенное. Мне как монголу вот китайская еда не нравится нисколько, жрут всякие жуки тараканы,😂
I've recently come back from a lovely trip in Albania, and lamb head was on all the menus. I kind of wish we tried it now, but had the fear it would come out whole and I'd catch eye to eye contact with it.
Thanks George for helping this guy
ive had cow tongue before and it was friggin delicious! im glad they didnt tell me before i ate it though lol
I've had cow cock many times was yummy
I had a Lambs head in rural Italy , served my my wifes cousin - I had two bites . The skull cap was open with a spoon in it ......
Mongolian BBQ is one of the best and world famous!
Jorge’s has just randomly joined me. Honest!
Healthiest diet in the world and also the most tasty (as it actually should be and is)!
nah mate
I'm with you for what not to eat and your choices are also mine. Thanks. Cheers.
I was really impressed by the kindness of this man trying to help a stranger….until I read the comments LOL
Brave Ben to go deep into the real mongol cuisine. LOL we all think your dinking to get over the fear of what your doing. We love your british talk mate and cheers.
That looks great
❤ lovely video. The food looks yummy
Your Alan Partridge "Aha" quotes are interestingly placed in your videos BB.
Lucky George already had his phone on the table
😂😂😂😂
Detective Brad
@@BackpackerBen Im surprised George only got you to try those two foods..You missed out on Tsuivan. If you're still there try it
It's so funny to me when people get ooh-wow about unfamiliar food. You know you're in a new culture. I figure, if it's what people normally eat, eat it! No big deal. Don't expect it to be familiar; if one wants familiar, one should stay home. I just wish there was someplace close to me where I could try Mongolian food. I've been watching cooking videos and it all looks so good!
brooo the food looks gnarly
You're back on your game Ben...less than a minute in and there is a 'a-ha' in your video. The last one (with Mae) was A-Ha free. Were you distracted 😃
The cheek of an animal is always the best bet. In the US, beef cheek is a popular BBQ item. And, Also used for Mexican (Tex-Mex) barbacoa tacos.
(No way I’m eating the eye or brain!😂)
Good stuff, on my list Bayan Ulgii in western Mongolia. Eagle festival
Mongolia seems to be a nice and safe destination.
George is a TOP G.
So similar to rural food here in nepal😅..best part of the lamb head is tongue and eye for me👌
When ben took a napkin in his hand as he put the eye in his mouth, I knew it wasn't going down. Great video, cheers to Mongolia!
George’s shirt said Legend on on he was an absolute Legend
Lol, george has a good appetite, can't stop laughing from him salivating over everything.
George saved the day for being the guinea pig. Bravo. And bravo to Ben for bringing us this rare content!
Lamp head is full of nutrition good for you Bin and George
You deserve to be at a million subs with bald and all the others Ben m8!
how convenient having a phone ready across the table for George to film when he spontaneously approaches and offers to help 😅
2:29 Looks like George already left his mobile phone on the table before he met you 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Sounded well dodgey when you said you were getting some lamb head😮😮😂😂
Love the unintentional pun ...[just after eating the ear] ..right, what have we got 'ear!🤣
"Randomly joined you" but his phone was already there before he sat... lol
Great video again, I would like the same stuff I guess ;)
Respect for trying the eye. I wouldn't have touched it haha.
George is my friend. I know him for years, actually he is super kind person.
Legend
Thanks George for taking part in the video 👏👍
i will love to eat that some kind of head 🎉🎉 from mizoram full support
And his phone was already there at his table
As a man that eat everything, that dishes looked tasty af mate!!
Caught up just in time!
Wow George so friendly. Cool guy.
Please stay genuine and not fake reactions! I love your content! I'm late to this one, but the comments says it all! ❤❤
