🥒 ABOUT BEFRS:
Hey, I’m Sonny! I’m from the US but I’ve been living in Asia for 10 years and started making food and travel videos to document my experiences. I travel to different parts of the world, hunting down and documenting the most unique food each country has to offer.
If you see any factual food errors in my videos, please feel free to politely let me know in the comments. I'm a huge fan of trying different, interesting foods in each country. My show is from a Western point of view, but more importantly, MY point of view. It is not meant to offend any person or culture.

How was this comment made an hour ago but the video just came out 14 min ago 🤨🤔
Overall (prolly except for the spider) everything looked so yummy! That pork skin must be sooo good 🤤🤤🥰
#jyotisketchart
As a Karen person, it is not very often we get this kind of exposure. I'm so happy that you are showing our culture to the world. Thank you very much Sonny.
As a store manager, I agree.
@@beeeean karen is a hill tribe in thailand xD
A Karen would never say that.
kareniee
As a police, i agree
The level of respect Sonny have for the food of different regions cuisine is insane... Hats off to you Sonny
He does not wear a hat🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@Heaza_ ha haaa u sooooo funeeeeeee 🤓
@@kazesan3431 we all say that
He drank raw blood in Africa. Bandanas off to him lol
@@Heaza_ that went right over your silly head. It's not about him wearing a hat 🙄
This is not just a food review channel....This is a cultural documentary that makes me appreciate our planet ♥ Keep it up!
The little man is a true definition of actions speak louder than words. Very cool and sure of what he is doing
The montage by the end of this video is both sad and fascinating. Culture and tradition is such a beautiful thing. This is not just a food review show, it encapsulates and captures the way of life of people in the world. I love what you and your team do Sonny.
nobody noticed the legend here
first time seeing you being serious.. and I agree with your statement
I was freaking I found you here 😮 two legend meets in this video one in the act one in the comments insane
Bruhh even Xavier is commenting 😂 I like I like 😂
LONG LIVE XAVIER LEGEND. Keep spreading your wisdom
Sonny and Team, you guys have moved beyond food for me and many others I'm sure. Thank you for helping bring these stories to us.
fully agreed! sometimes I wish you could be there cause I'd love to hear your descriptions. 😂
I’m so glad you visited the Karen people. I am Karen myself and this video makes me so happy to see my home town.
I know this is a food review show but it goes beyond that. you’re an amazing anthropologist, immersing yourself in every culture you come across. ❤️
As an indigenous Asian ethic myself, similiar to the Karen, I really enjoy these deep dives into these villages. I myself live in America my whole life, but have heard of all these other village and people. There are countless numbers of them through out alll south east Asia. I love that Sunny and his team go and show these people, that I've wondered where and how they live.
m
How did you get 15mlike
What indigenous asian are you?
So you are American. Be American. Because foreigners who go seek the exotic and are not trained anthropologist or cool as Sonny are ruinining indigenous cultures when they travel with their selfie stick and claim ro be in some dramatic journey to search for their roots. Well not everyone is a threat to these beautiful cultures. Only the American Drama Queens who live on Instagram.
That’s so cool!
Hahaha chowing the Tarantula just makes Sonny another Andrew Zimmern 🤣 I enjoy these shows. Learning other cultures is the best adventure. I would like to live like those people at the village. They appear very peaceful, content and calm
I’m half Karen and half chin but I grew up in the states. Thank you for sharing this video for me and the world to see!
Been a subscriber since 200k. Sonny has came a long way. Glade to see this channel about to hit 10 million soon. Sonny and his production teams are doing a amazing job. Bringing us views at home with lots of educational, cultures and different type bozzare and amazong foods around the world. And this, I just want to say Thank You to Sonny and his production teams for their amazing contents.
Same here
Og person alert noicee
Not to mention the quality, length & dedication... totally agree!
Amazing! Lots of Karen refugees in the US actually. I had the chance to spend a lot of time with Karen refugees in Minnesota, and this video really brought me back. Thanks!
This isn't meant to be sarcastic but it's karens and in the US so yeah. I hate myself
The majority of the karen refugee population in the US is from Burma not really Thailand. It's because of the militant conflict between the karen tribes in burma and the burmese government. I am also Karen myself but trying to reconnect to my roots is so weird these days.
just when that guy put that bamboo in pings as* my heart stoped for a min or 2 . it is defintely the best ever food review show.
We need more of these videos, real good job in sharing the culture of people around the world!. Thank you Sonny.
Years ago while trekking in the Thai mountains of Chiang Mai I came across the Karen people. They were so kind and generous, offering me food and a place to sleep for the night. I’ll never forget it.
The opposite of a Karen in america
@@elmidahiradam oppo
@@elmidahiradam very true
@@elmidahiradam not true, Karen are very respectful and generous people here in the state too. Not a Karen myself, I'm shock we share so much similarities when we never knew each existed. Don't let one bad apple define the rest. American is a place that'll just make you turn a blind eye with all the experience you learned here.
@@hmongvang31007 I meant the US definition of Karen the “rude type” if you know what I mean
“In the U.S Karen means something totally different “ 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Bro😭
I, too, was disappointed when no one asked to talk to the manager...
🤣🤣🤣😂
i love the guy skewering the pig, and his cheeky smile.
10:00 the moment he genuinely shook his head even when he couldn't understand Sunny, that was really heartwarming!
Sir Sonny, the question you asked her at last part of this episode hit me of the reality. Most of the Asian Countries, Country side provinces are experiencing near tradition extinction, this is very alarming, specially their tradition is the root of the country most but not all Asian Countries Government are doing or directly neglecting this fact. They keep on posting in the Social Media Platforms about the Government protecting them but in reality nothing is really happening.
Sir Sonny I'm happy because you being one of the "top tier" food vlogger in the whole world noticed this problem. Because I know food is the best way to represent one's culture and tradition. I am hoping and praying that you continue with strength and safety your beautiful art of presenting cultures thru their food.
More power sir Sonny!
don't rely on government to do anything for you. do it yourself
@@-jank-willson its about the natives. LOL
If the younger generations don't want to continue the traditional way of life, there's nothing the government can't do about it. Culinary tradition basically will never die if the food tastes good. Anything else is up to the whole younger generation, if they don't want to keep it alive, it'll die no matter what the government does.
The frog you eat is like the frog in the road in Philippines that'd been hit by a car and dry out due to heat of sun 😆
Sa pilipinas lang pala may palaka 🤨🤨🤔🤔
😂
@@cryisfree510 kaya nga may "is like" eh. Reading comprehension nga naman
Ahahah loko loko😆
@@kuyamoayanadventure4182 inside the pants
One of my favorite video from the channel! Love all the suspense, plot and humor! You guys did such a good jon in conveying the information and story telling of the culture! Kudos!
Bro i really believe it’s your cheering and loving personality that’s connects you with so much people aside’ from food .. keep growing strong
This one is good Sonny, your co-host knows very much of local custom as she is one of them. Continue doing like this on the next episodes!
One suggestion Sonny: I think you should visit Nagaland, probably during the Hornbill Festival (in the first week of Dec.), and other North Eastern States of India. I'm sure you can get a very good episode out of their unique cultures and cuisines. It's nothing like the rest of India.
Yeah but I don't think he ll love I sometime thinks my state (culture is so simple) than the rest ne states 🥲
Tripura
👍
Manipur 😚🤌🔥🔥
@@Kaori_lean nah tripura is good just lots of immigrants 🥺
his humor and openess makes this show great
Awesome video. Loved every second.
Nothing makes me more happy on UA-cam than when I see that you have uploaded a new video 💃 I’m addicted
It's like christmas when these videos arrive
Thank you for showing LOVE TO MY KAREN PEOPLE❤️RESPECT ✊💯 ❤️ 🔥
It's really a heart warming scene to see local people loves the way of living in a place like that. No pollution, no noise, and nothing match with the scenery. 😍
Hoping to see more of it Mr.Sonny 👌 keep safe always and your Team too 🔥
No pollution? The air in this area is among the worst in the world for 3 months a year.
That spider meal.... WOW that was hard to watch. can only imagine what Sonny is going through! taking one for the team!
Bro!
COVID 2022
Had Tarantula in PNG, not cooked over coals, more like jerky. It was great!
As Karen people we appreciate you participating in our culture meal. It really mean a lot to us !!
@@calihuntfish7163 not that Karen
Great video. So awesome to see you immersing in both the food and culture 👍🏽.
Your videos are always so informative and fun to watch! ❤️
What I find fascinating are the spice blends on your show. Meat is meat and, yes, the taste varies with the cooking technique but the creation and combinations of these potent herbs and flavourings are what makes a meal memorable!
Sonny will eat anything! Got to admire him for that!
that's the trouble with being respectful. u cant say no 😂🕷🕷🕷
That’s why Covid came 🫣
Sonny!! Your videos are so entertaining and also so educational! There are so many places I want to explore thanks to you 😍
Thank you for visiting my people man that means a lot to me appreciate it
“Love that you don’t dress up the natural flavour !”😂 The tarantula bit cracked me up!
Visit the Karenni people in Mae Hong Son please. I moved to the United States when I was 6 years old and have very light memory of where I came from. I would love to see the villages.
me too!! I would love and appreciate a video with the Karenni people
@@goldxnbee23 are they related to the Karen?
@@-jank-willson no
Awesome tour! Amazing Thailand! Lovely food! Thanks for sharing!
I love how you show the culture and tradition along with food reviews.
I just want to say Thank you Sonny and your production team, for constantly bringing us great content. I love seeing other parts of the world and these beautiful places you show different cultures, their way of life how they live and what foods they eat. They are always so gracious and open to others. I always look forward to watching you every week with new content.❤️😋
Always enjoy every part of this show.
@@christinejuma3980 I look forward to seeing this channel every Sunday, I wish I could join his Patreon channel and contribute, but unfortunately I m on a fixed income,so I wait and watch when they are posted. I even go back and rewatch them. They are so enjoyable, and it makes me wish I could travel to some of these beautiful places. 😊
Wow, that tarantula section tho. I couldn't even imagine. Much respect for the Karen ppl, Sonny, and his team! I'm always waiting for more adventures. I can't get enough!
I personally love the way you always blend with indigenous people, you practically live their lives, eat what they eat and this is the main reason l always watch your videos. Thumbs up....👍👍👍
To anybody who's reading this, I pray that whatever is hurting you or whatever you are constantly stressing about gets better. May the dark thoughts, the overthinking, and the doubt exit your mind. May clarity replace confusion. May peace and calmness fill your life. ❤ 🙏🏼🧘♂
First time Commenting
Sonny, words can't describe just how amazing and fulfilling watching each episode of this channel is to me.
I'm a huge fan and I've gained so much so much knowledge and insights not just about food but also about cultures and traditions..
Big shout out to you and your team.
I've never been to Asia but this reminds me so much of my home town.
From Nigeria with love.

"It's like the Shakira of crickets!" The sound affects when they were gutting and washing those little guys was hilarious!! 😆
Thank you for immortalizing the moments of traditional cooking 🇨🇷🇨🇷🇨🇷

That costa rica flag
Hey Sunny, it's very informative and at the same time very entertaining to watch your videos. Loved it.
Sonny This channel and your crew never cease to amaze me, Absolutely love this channel thank you
Your UA-cam videos are better than ANY TV show! The quality is amazing!
the genuine smile of these people is just satifying!
Love the way u connect with the people no matter where you go ❤️
I love how Sunny gets right in there, helping carry the heavy things, etc. not just leaving it up to the people he’s visiting.
For real...Down to earth guy embracing without hesitation
Awesome tour! Amazing Thailand! Lovely food! Thanks for sharing! Have a great day!
Thats so crazy that we're so far apart like Imagine cooking a whole pig, thats like our ancestors but these people kept their tradition alive and I love it!
Thai fermented pepper paste is legit! Absolutely delicious, but it will light you up, on both ends, if you eat too much.
This man even visits a whole Karen village for our entertainment. That's dedication
And not one manager among them.
I see what you did!
they are the K’nyaw tribe but colonizers didn’t know how to pronounce that, so colonizers went with the Karen(kə-REN)tribe. Even than, it’s still being mispronounced and associated w Karen. I feel like it’s ignorant and disrespectful to make fun of their tribe name.
@@goldxnbee23 Look at that it took over 12 hours and many happy people until we got the first internet warrior who feels the need to be insulted by a little silly joke. I think we're slowly quite a good way back from cancel culture :)
@@Flaschenteufel I like how their just offended for the tribe and not people named Karen having their name used in a derogative manner. They could have done two times the virtue signaling!
Those sound affects when cleaning the crickets had me laughing so dam hard .. background noises the editing job lately has been the best ever with the little music snipits and sound effects makes it so much better
These vids are such a vibe and an experience man i love it
Wow, I’ve been watching for years and since you started going into indigenous tribes in south east Asia I always wondered if you would end up going to a Karen village, I myself am Karen “Knaw” . I love what you and your team does
although it seems like there are many sub-ethnicities, cultures, sub-races, and languages within the 'Karen' group
I love your videos so much you should let me go somewhere across the world with you 🥺
I have to be honest Will. I never thought I'd find a show as enjoyable as Anthony Bourdain, but I dare say that day may have come!
YOU ARE SIMPLY THE BEST SONNY .EXCEPTIONAL .NO BODY CAN SURPASS YOUR TALENTS.HATS OFF TO YOU .
Yo sunny I love your vids you and your team keep up the good work
I never get enough of this channel,everything is just amazing and perfect Love it😀😀😀😀. Much respect to the whole crew
"It may not be long until the traditions we observe today, are nothing more than a memory." that really cuts deep, this was a surprisingly bittersweet video
your videos are soo amazing 😁😄it makes my mood better than before😊
i am a frequent pork cooker, but this looks 100x more mouth watering than anything i can do in the oven. fantastic!
Beef > Pork
@@Billionaire1998 each are delicious in their own way. i don't only just cook pork
@@Billionaire1998
Dog > Pork > Beef
Im suprise for you to come see a not very known tribe in thailand and giving it a spotlight within the world.
It's mesmerizing for me to see that tribals of northeast india and rest of South east Asia have so much common in our culture
Production on these videos are insane! Cant wait for you to visit Japan!!! 🇯🇵
Best food show ever!
I didnt see one Karen... I call "click bait"
Great video as always 🍻
Thank you Sonny for this video!
Yooo finally my home town. I’m so glad I’ve been watching you for many years and this is finally happen
God Bless you Sonny! I grew up spending my summers as a child in the Puerto Rican "campo" (the farming countryside) and it is beautiful to see, through your adventures, how much we all (humans) have in common. What is fundamental in our communities is using anything and everything available to feed our families...my older family members still eat lots of the chicken bones and larger animal bones get broken open for the marrow. (When technology fails, it is these people that will be the foundation of humanity's future.) I smile down to my soul when I see lechón asado (roasted pig) and "Cuerito" (crunchy pig skin) almost everywhere you go!
i just love how awkward Sonny is sometimes 😂
My goodness. Thank you Sonny for another great episode
I have been following Sonny since he had 15k subs. I have not seen a video of his in few months I think when he was in the states last. I can’t Believe he has almost 10mil subs now. Good job Sonny my man.
Hey everyone, watching from Uganda and I can assure you, Sonny Side has the best content on UA-cam
Do you like Ugandan movies?
@@BaggageUnclaimed do you know the way?
I miss Thailand so much!
Omg, those crickets brings back memories of when I used to live in one of the many refuge camps back in Thailand😩 they’re so delicious!!!
Best food channel on youtube, no arguments! Hats off to Sunny and team!
As a Karen person, I appreciate the respect and exposure for our culture. It is indeed threatened.
Also this is not the place to make the Karen vs manager jokes 😐
Love it!! I absolutely love the Cricket sound effects as its dispatched....and yes Sonny, that was a Shakira compliment. :)
Sonny your show and the one liners always gives me a good laugh. You definitely live up to your channels name. Great job.
Could watch this Show all day, Great content!.
Great channel, love your content!
😎👍
I believe majority of Karen people live in Karen State, Myanmar and they are one of 8 major ethnic groups of Myanmar. Sadly, many of them have been displaced to Thailand and neighbouring countries as their villages were relentlessly burned down and air-raided by the military junta forces especially after the military coupe in 2021. But they are strong, resilient and will never yield to the military junta. Salute to all the anti-military fighters out there.
Ml
Kawthoole (Karens' land) was devided in two After British Conial independence. Half of them End up on Shitty land like burma while the other half end up in Thai. It's not Displaced Burmese Karen. Theyre Thai side Karen.
An entire village of Karens?! There must be many managers in the surrounding villages.
@@sina8441 that's a nice one. 😂 I'm from Myanmar but i've never thought of that before.
It's sadly true. When i see Karen people in these videos, it always say that they are from Thailand 😢
Sonny, your videos just never fail to deliver, the culture, the people, the cuisine… who needs National Geographic…
Keep it up… 👍👍👍👍👍👍
4:11 That look and smile at the camera🐖🦯💩😭😂
Sonny. You have been going places so unique and special. Please continue to show the world how communities work together in harmony. These villages suffer from food insecurity as they rely on their own gardens and animals to feed themselves. I'm sure they have good and bad harvests and adjust accordingly to ensure everyone is fed.
I love you videos....a very big fun.... watched them all. I love food and thinking of doing my own East African food review
I'm loving this video, so natural and just different.
I wonder how many times they called the manager on you.
Great video as always!
