I'm Thai, sell foods. To people talking about tip, it is not the fault, not guilty if not pay tip in any Thai food shop. 'Pay tip' is for Western culture, Asian culture does not expect for tip. Welcome to Thailand and hope you will enjoy to our foods and reasonable price. 💟💟💟
Btrk KA i want to visit bangkok , but don’t fancy tour because i want to do my own stuffs. i don’t speak thailandish though. How hard would it be for english speaker to do it alone? Thank You 👍
@@fly89 don't worry, many peoples with back pack travelling alone in Thailand without knowledge in Thai language. Please feel funny to be here, from Airport you can go to downtown by BTS electrical train, please avoid cab/taxi. Stay in "Khao San Road" or "Sukumvit road" is good for you & travelling. Wish you have a good time in Bangkok, Thailand.
We went to Thailand in February. We ate here!!! It was so good!!! And yes, it was $1.29! Only thing we didn't try, was the soup, as it was not done yet. They were so friendly! Every Thai person we met was wonderful. It was the best vacation ever. I ate all the time and lost 14#. Lol. I would LOVE to do it again.
Did you get sick at all? I really want to travel to Thailand but am paranoid of getting sick from drinking the water, especially on accident, like i did when i went back to the Philippines.
@@nikosfilipino lol. thailand food is way way way way better than ph food. roxas market has cheap street foods and clean foods but its more like a snack than a proper meal.
Notice the people don’t grab or waste food. This is how a buffet like his keeps going. People take only what they need. There is more civic consciousness.
Wow - $1.29 for an 'All You Can Eat' buffet. My total respect to these wonderful people. Thank you Mark and Ying for highlighting such generous, kind and friendly people. The world needs more people like this. Love to Thailand.
been to Thai several times, and I feel like I still need to go back there again just for the food, the ambience, the shopping, the people and for everything else.
@@SuperTweezy5 i went to pattaya and bangkok there but people give it too much credit. Everywhere the customer service was trash and most people were straight up rude as heck
My respect to the chef, im a chef and owner of two Tex-Mex Delis and I know how hard and difficult it can be to cook all of those wonderful dishes, but perseverance always pays, God bless and keep on cooking and for you peeps out there keep supporting your local businesses.
May God bless the owner of this restaurant. Thank you Mark Wiens for showing us that there's still people who are not greedy for money. Faith in humanity restored!
It's not that they arent being greedy.. They're still making a nice profit off their prices, it just seems to be a bigger difference in price because of the currency exchange rate.
Hi Mark! My wife and I love your channel. We have used it to guide us on our last trip to Thailand, Laos, Cambodja and Vietnam. We went all the places we have seen in your videos and it was fantastic. Looking forward to our next trip and looking for those great places to eat.
Isnt this what everyone does? My parents taught me to always clean up my area when im done eating even if we are out at a joint ir something. My family and I try to leave it clean or sometimes even cleaner then when we got there
Mah Sylla wow that’s cheap. Here is Australia a bottle of water is more than either petrol, diesel fuel or Coca-Cola. It’s an average of $3.00 per 600ml bottle.
Proud to be an Indian for this matter.... Here we can get a full meals for one US dollar ..... that to people leave in southern part of India are god gifted one....
1) my mouth was watering the entire time. 2) each and every food looks yummy. 3) I respect you so much for being for humble and down to earth who didnt hesitate to pick up someone else's bone while cleaning up. We all can learn from this. Being humble we dont lose anything. It only makes us the bigger person
@@WornDownSaint golden corral is digusting... dont matter how cheap it is... its just fat, grease, fried.. never seen so many kids eating their health away... and fat young kids bigger than me.. heart attack waiting to happen, sadly most of them were kids eating grease fat... sad buffet
You could easily make that much food for less than $5 even in the US. Yes, you'd have to make it yourself, but comparative to cost of living and salaries in the US, if you make the food yourself it can be relatively cheap.
@@kgspvgsp7569 I cook 95% of all the food I eat. I can get a pound of cheap pork or chicken for about $1.50-2.00 a pound, that is enough for 2-3 meals. I can get a whole basket of veggies for $5. Rice is cheap. I also make my salsas and hot sauces, bake my own breads (flat breads, loaves, tortillas etc).
Agreed since average pay 2018 325 baht or ten usd a day that’s forty baht or 1.29 usd. Eat there seven days a week for a days wage wow and here in America go to steak hours sixty to eighty usd for wife two kids and couple drinks love this show
@@MrMuscleTroll Hi material or gradients as well as beef/pork/chicken are not expensive in Thailand as our country is still agriculture-based country, although the country is mainly run by industrial and service sectors. As a consequence, we don't need to import those things instead we export it.

I took out a student loan so I could get a degree in Under Water Basket Weaving. Haven't found a job yet but maybe a progressive Democrat will be our next President and cancel my debt. Then I'll go back for my Masters.
Yes, everyday, for lunch and dinner and breakfast, if he does breakfast...$4 dollars in total. luxury food for dirt cheap price. I wish we could have things like this stall here in the UK...prices are insane here...you can't really order any food without feeling robbed and underfed...In central London a small sandwich the size of your hand costs £20 to £30...
Me and my wife specifically came here to see if someone said someone about how he literally does the same, damn thing every time he takes a bite if something 🤣🤣🤣...closes eyes...eyes pop out, leans head to the right, OH WOOWWWWWWW
@Black To Grace I was just watching this part. Mark got through like 4 bites and that dude was done with his whole plate. Mark was definitely not the high speed one XD.
Whats great about watching Mark than any other food tour channels is that he's really trying all different types of food from a $100 to $1....some channels just wanna eat 5 star buffets hahaha
Gipsy Dean that food may not be top quality ingredients, but it looks in good condition. People in jail don’t eat like that am sure, not like i ever been in jail but you know what i mean.
Gipsy Dean i mean wtf do you expect at that price, ot still looks tasty and not something you would get food poisoning from. I am sure thailand has those 15£ places with better ingredients that you get in Europe because it’s obviously cheaper there.
Thank you Mark. I actually felt like I ate there, thanks to your descriptions. Also, I was inspired to make a white rice over spring greens with Thai chili and a touch of soy sauce, two jumbo eggs with the yoke making everything so creamy and thinly sliced white onions. Why? I never had it but now it's a favorite. Why? Mark, the food inspired me. Why? That's all I had available. Why? I live in the high desert of Nevada and not in Thailand - a home in a former life!!! Thank You!!!
@@luisgugustavo Aqui no Ceará a gente tem uns buffets que você paga um valor fixo e põe o quanto de comida quiser no prato, com exceção da carne, que são os donos que põem no nosso prato. Mas pra repetir tem que pagar de novo. Seria mais ou menos isso os buffets de boteco?
@@luisgugustavo Nossa! 15 reais com carne à vontade?! Bom demais! Aqui pra comer carne à vontade só em churrascaria rodízio, que tem um bocado por aqui, mas aí o preço é 40 reais pra cima.

@@AnDiMsOfLy Well, there were some decent 5.99$ asian buffet in U.S, even in CA where things are usually a bit more expensive then other states. But that was about 5 years ago.
@@qiyuxuan9437 In CA, $10 for buffet was the standard, but that's like 8-10 years ago. Now, buffet cost $15 the cheapest to $19-22 + tax average. And don't forget that where I'm living(toronto), they charge an extra $3 on diner time and holidays. With the pandemic going on, I haven't seen any buffet open so... RIP my sushi buffet T.T
@@chaosmiller7172 not every. there are some toilets that get cleaned every time someone exits, for them you pay. But there are also other free public toilets. And you have to keep in mind that the average salary in switzerland is around 6000 swiss francs per month which is the reason everything is more expensive.
Awesome! And I love how the guy sitting next to you doesn’t shy away from the camera. I notice people in other countries aren’t as self conscious as people here in the U.S.
Always a bad idea to watch these when hungry 😂 How good is south east asian food! We basically filmed everything we ate on our Philippines trip. Would love to get out and try some authentic Thai food one day too!
Don't want to be too negative on such a great video...but I hope backpackers don't end up swarming this stall and taking advantage of the prices and hospitality.
not even 2 dollar for what look like a feast. This is basically charity even for thailand. I hate if someone generosity get taken advantage like this. If you can pay more pay more.
@@mrfaernIt's not just a matter of paying more. I can imagine if there are too many backpackers from rich countries visiting the stall, the owner may be forced or tempted to increase his price. As we can see from Mark's video, the people eating at the stall are mostly blue collar working men who NEED the low price. You can see this phenomenon of rich tourists increasing prices all over the world.
@@gerardnorris6146 Maybe not - most of it is healthy food, mostly veggies and protein, low carb, even 2 of his plates full are probably much less calories than a typical western meal :D
bigmoney66b Mark did a video a couple of years ago about what he eats, and his exercise program. He purposely focuses on good carbs only. He eats no junk. Plus, he eats tons of chiles--great for maintaining strong metabolism and keeping body free of illness. My 80 year old Korean stepmother eats a very similar type of diet and speed walks an hour a day around her hilly neighborhood. She moves and eats like she's in her 30s, and looks in her 50s. She's incredible. Mark is too.
Nightstalker_55- Your comment implied that the OP shouldn’t give bad tips to waitresses, because they aren’t the ones making the food. But, yeah, sorry if I took it out of context.
@@treetree117 I always tip from 15-25% depending on the treatment that I receive. Specially because I understand it will help them a lot and heat the economy.
I live in Bangkok and was just at Lumphini Park on Sunday. I am wondering how I missed this place 😱😅!! I'll have to go back and check this out, thanks for sharing this gem!
@@ScrumptiousRump I am no longer there, but I absolutely loved living there 🥰. I will definitely be back to visit in the future, I made too many Thai friends to not visit lol. Do you live there?
UnDebNiable No I don’t But I’m thinking of going there to study some asian instruments and to get to know my own culture since I was born there But raised in Europe. The thing is, I’m quite Paranoid and since I can’t really read or write thai I’m not sure if I’ll survive there 😅 I can speak it But I have a thick Finnish accent. I’m just really Paranoid about getting scammed etc. Even though it’s my own country 🤣
@@ScrumptiousRump That's really awesome! I hope you go through with it because I believe you will be fine. You definitely have an advantage over me because I couldn't speak or understand Thai at first, but hanging around the locals I picked up A LOT. Just go in with an open mind and it should be a nice experience for you 😉. As for reading Thai, Google camera/translate really helped me out (maybe can help you too). Once you get the hang of things there it will feel like home, well at least it did for me. All the best to you on whatever you decide.
Like mark said, these aren’t the best cuts of meat but who cares?!?!?! This is what enjoying a culture is all about. Trying different foods and appreciating what theses folks do.
I love all the different cultures of good food you have traveled to taste. It's wonderful! I admire you so much. The food always looks so good. Love to see your eyes roll in the back of your head when eating really really good food. I love that you take your family everywhere too. Its commendable, your a good man. Proud of you n all your accomplishments. Keep up the good work n entertaining us. Love watching n learning from you.

Yes. America scams you.
I proud to be Thai. 🇹🇭 🇹🇭 🇹🇭
I love this guy. He is so happy with everything he eats. Boy does he eat. I’m full watching that first plate.
I wouldn't even go grocery shopping for food, I'd just go there, lol.

Yes, everyday, for lunch and dinner and breakfast, if he does breakfast...$4 dollars in total. luxury food for dirt cheap price. I wish we could have things like this stall here in the UK...prices are insane here...you can't really order any food without feeling robbed and underfed...In central London a small sandwich the size of your hand costs £20 to £30...
Mom
I’m high asf and I can’t stop laughing at dudes eyes when he takes a bite the pop out😭😭😂
6:47😂😭😭😭😭
Me and my wife specifically came here to see if someone said someone about how he literally does the same, damn thing every time he takes a bite if something 🤣🤣🤣...closes eyes...eyes pop out, leans head to the right, OH WOOWWWWWWW
I was saying the same about his eyes
Kinda like toy yum 😂
Fakest dude on UA-cam.
I don’t think he ever taste bad food lol
8-10$ for an average buffet in india, Bangkok has some of the cheapest food.
Dude, India is such a rich country then.. Come to the US.. We have 10 USD buffet all over the country..as long as you are in LA, NYC, SF...
@@yorknew3511 we got 0.50$ buffets here in streets bro. What he said must be in some big hotels I guess

Day 7 of Lockdown Spaghetti, and seeing this makes me want to cry.
I couldn’t keep my eyes off of guy eating next to Mark, damn he looks so chill.
It's 1.29$ of a whole meal, of course he was damn chill.
Thais are the most chilling people on earth. It is Thais characters 😂🤭

@Black To Grace I was just watching this part. Mark got through like 4 bites and that dude was done with his whole plate. Mark was definitely not the high speed one XD.
Whats great about watching Mark than any other food tour channels is that he's really trying all different types of food from a $100 to $1....some channels just wanna eat 5 star buffets hahaha
Hello from the person who said hi to you at Chengdu airport, it was a nice surprise to meet you!
Arne Scheire no one cares
Hey be nice!
nice! you met a legend :)
Did he go to one of main cities of China? He went to Yunnan before. I thought he avoided to go to main cities in China for some reasons.
@@twona. stfu
I love how it was busy but still a very chill community vibe.
Compared to the average buffet cost of £15 in the UK... this is Insane!!!
Ben Brooker And yet not fresh for £15
Gipsy Dean that food may not be top quality ingredients, but it looks in good condition. People in jail don’t eat like that am sure, not like i ever been in jail but you know what i mean.
@@GipsyDean You speak from experience?
Gipsy Dean i mean wtf do you expect at that price, ot still looks tasty and not something you would get food poisoning from. I am sure thailand has those 15£ places with better ingredients that you get in Europe because it’s obviously cheaper there.
Anybody else notice theres no dogs or cats roaming the streets "just saying"
Whatever you eat, I only look forward to the amount of chili you pile on your dish. It's so satisfying.
Ya he lives chilli
wow that’s sounds wonderful, you most have be a very good chef 👨🍳
Seriously, at that price I feel guilty eatjng more than 1 dish
Me too I would pay 2.60
*dish
@Bird is the word nice guy 👌🏽
I feel like thats how they operate
@Bird is the wordI would. But it is not very common leaving tips in Asia, especially for a street food stall.
Thank you Mark. I actually felt like I ate there, thanks to your descriptions. Also, I was inspired to make a white rice over spring greens with Thai chili and a touch of soy sauce, two jumbo eggs with the yoke making everything so creamy and thinly sliced white onions. Why? I never had it but now it's a favorite. Why? Mark, the food inspired me. Why? That's all I had available. Why? I live in the high desert of Nevada and not in Thailand - a home in a former life!!! Thank You!!!
Man, asian street food is at another level completely!!! It's insane! I wish we had something like that here in Brazil!
@@luisgugustavo Aqui no Ceará a gente tem uns buffets que você paga um valor fixo e põe o quanto de comida quiser no prato, com exceção da carne, que são os donos que põem no nosso prato. Mas pra repetir tem que pagar de novo. Seria mais ou menos isso os buffets de boteco?
@@luisgugustavo Nossa! 15 reais com carne à vontade?! Bom demais! Aqui pra comer carne à vontade só em churrascaria rodízio, que tem um bocado por aqui, mas aí o preço é 40 reais pra cima. Inclui o rodízio completo com acompanhamentos, churrasco, pizza e até sushi, tudo à vontade. Mas em compensação as bebidas são muito caras.
If this was in the states I would eat it every day.
If thats in State it's not $1.29 buffet maybe $20 n up lol
@@lenielperez1119 yea lol $15 if you super lucky
Find some Thai wife you will can eat every days 😂😂
@@AnDiMsOfLy Well, there were some decent 5.99$ asian buffet in U.S, even in CA where things are usually a bit more expensive then other states. But that was about 5 years ago.
@@qiyuxuan9437 In CA, $10 for buffet was the standard, but that's like 8-10 years ago. Now, buffet cost $15 the cheapest to $19-22 + tax average. And don't forget that where I'm living(toronto), they charge an extra $3 on diner time and holidays. With the pandemic going on, I haven't seen any buffet open so... RIP my sushi buffet T.T
Wow! This is charity. I would almost feel guilty to eat there and just pay what they ask for.
Yup me too... Here in germany those prices would ruin a restaurant right away😂

Thank you so much for present our thai food 😊🙏🏻❤️ I’m thai people and happy to see you like to eat thai food Mark. 🇹🇭 nice man!!
all the times I have been to Lumpini Park and never got to this place. Waaaaah! Next time for sure!
I love how it says his job is full-time eater! A dream job
At that price is like you're stealing from them 😋😆
I know right? I was wondering did he make any good profit?
They just spread the love for everyone (especially for poor status ppls), not to make money only. "A contented work and life".
So sad
1 cook for that buffet is the same with the others with more than 10
@@RMe-i4k I don't think that they are making any money with such a low price
*So cheap yet seems so healthy and tasty* 😱🙂👍❤
Wow $1.29 cant even enter the public toilet in Swiss.
Is that Socialist?
Public toilet of Swiss is charging? That sounds wierd.
@@chaosmiller7172 not every. there are some toilets that get cleaned every time someone exits, for them you pay. But there are also other free public toilets. And you have to keep in mind that the average salary in switzerland is around 6000 swiss francs per month which is the reason everything is more expensive.
Ruthy Miranda no that is Switzerland which is considered more libertarian and capitalist then the United States
I paid 2 euro to go toilet in norway
Thailand land of smiles. Haven't been there since 2000, great food, great people, loved it, fantastic.
Awesome! And I love how the guy sitting next to you doesn’t shy away from the camera. I notice people in other countries aren’t as self conscious as people here in the U.S.
Exactly! I always got impression that American people are always worried and obssesed with being cool and acting cool all the times.
I love how you eat all your food and not waste a grain of rice! I just absolutely love your videos!
Always a bad idea to watch these when hungry 😂 How good is south east asian food! We basically filmed everything we ate on our Philippines trip. Would love to get out and try some authentic Thai food one day too!
Lol
Awesome to hear that, would be great if you can visit Thailand soon!
Dont forget to visit Jakarta, Indonesia. Mark have his own Jakarta playlist for your guide what to eat some heavenly food we have here 🤘🏻🇮🇩
@@prasthawinadi4591 Oh nice, we'll have to check it out!
Thais food cooked in other countries is nothing compare to foods cooked in Thailand.
I'm here right now in bangkok, I can tell you that almost all the dishes here are so yummy 😋
Could you share the location please?
Don't want to be too negative on such a great video...but I hope backpackers don't end up swarming this stall and taking advantage of the prices and hospitality.
not even 2 dollar for what look like a feast. This is basically charity even for thailand. I hate if someone generosity get taken advantage like this. If you can pay more pay more.
@@mrfaern I agree this is so sad
I hope so too. Backpackers from first world countries becoming wasps..
@@mrfaernIt's not just a matter of paying more. I can imagine if there are too many backpackers from rich countries visiting the stall, the owner may be forced or tempted to increase his price. As we can see from Mark's video, the people eating at the stall are mostly blue collar working men who NEED the low price. You can see this phenomenon of rich tourists increasing prices all over the world.
Prices are already rising.
Mark, I love your work and your genuine passion for food. I've been in BKK since 2004 and love the way you show off our home. Keep up the great work!
Thai street food is simply amazing! Time to visit the country l!
I would weigh a thousand pounds if I lived in thailand
But you would have lots of money left over lol
1.29 for breakfast 1.29 for lunch 1.29 for din din lol
@@gerardnorris6146 Maybe not - most of it is healthy food, mostly veggies and protein, low carb, even 2 of his plates full are probably much less calories than a typical western meal :D
bigmoney66b Mark did a video a couple of years ago about what he eats, and his exercise program. He purposely focuses on good carbs only. He eats no junk. Plus, he eats tons of chiles--great for maintaining strong metabolism and keeping body free of illness. My 80 year old Korean stepmother eats a very similar type of diet and speed walks an hour a day around her hilly neighborhood. She moves and eats like she's in her 30s, and looks in her 50s. She's incredible. Mark is too.
I lived in thailand and it's so hot and humid you sweat out a lot of calorioes. Couldn't put weight on at all and I was drinking and eating loads
@@rickzor2700 this was the reply I was looking for
Why Western fast food will never catch on there. Real food cheaper than fast food. Awesome. 👍
#Truth At least this fast food is made by native people instead of immigrants.
Mark well done. Life is life, poor or rich everyone gets hungry and needs to eat. Respect.

Yes Lebenese food is great, but less variety compared to Asian/Indian foods.
FINALLY!!
Yes. Hope he takes a huge break from the middle east.
should leave the 20 ($ 0.65) as tip, here in USA you would leave $20 in tips to be treated bad and wait 30 min to get your food.
Nightstalker_55- “To be treated bad” that’s there
Your tipping culture is centred around paying wait staff low wages. There's not even any wait staff here.
Iuri cosme I hope you tipped these people a $20.00
Nightstalker_55- Your comment implied that the OP shouldn’t give bad tips to waitresses, because they aren’t the ones making the food. But, yeah, sorry if I took it out of context.
@@treetree117 I always tip from 15-25% depending on the treatment that I receive. Specially because I understand it will help them a lot and heat the economy.
I think I would eat here everyday of my life if I lived in Thailand, yeah I definitely would.
I can’t believe how cheap this buffet is. That’s beyond a great deal, fresh food being cook on the spot!!! You hit the jack pot.
@Deku speak for urself
maybe he eat alot only in his vlogs.
Unbelievable energy and determination! And appetite!!!! I sometimes lose my appetite from seeing too much food. Mark the human vacuum cleaner!

I live in Bangkok and was just at Lumphini Park on Sunday. I am wondering how I missed this place 😱😅!! I'll have to go back and check this out, thanks for sharing this gem!
UnDebNiable Do you still live in Bangkok? Do you enjoy living there? ☺️
@@ScrumptiousRump I am no longer there, but I absolutely loved living there 🥰. I will definitely be back to visit in the future, I made too many Thai friends to not visit lol. Do you live there?
UnDebNiable No I don’t But I’m thinking of going there to study some asian instruments and to get to know my own culture since I was born there But raised in Europe. The thing is, I’m quite Paranoid and since I can’t really read or write thai I’m not sure if I’ll survive there 😅 I can speak it But I have a thick Finnish accent. I’m just really Paranoid about getting scammed etc. Even though it’s my own country 🤣
@@ScrumptiousRump That's really awesome! I hope you go through with it because I believe you will be fine. You definitely have an advantage over me because I couldn't speak or understand Thai at first, but hanging around the locals I picked up A LOT. Just go in with an open mind and it should be a nice experience for you 😉. As for reading Thai, Google camera/translate really helped me out (maybe can help you too). Once you get the hang of things there it will feel like home, well at least it did for me. All the best to you on whatever you decide.
UnDebNiable Thanks! 😁
One of the reasons why I want to travel in Thailand
When I go to Bangkok next time I will definitely try this Thai street foods for sure😋
I miss Thailand street food. 😢 definitely going back in February.
Mark, the nightmare of all-you-can-eat restaurant owners.

Like mark said, these aren’t the best cuts of meat but who cares?!?!?! This is what enjoying a culture is all about. Trying different foods and appreciating what theses folks do.
I love all the different cultures of good food you have traveled to taste. It's wonderful! I admire you so much. The food always looks so good. Love to see your eyes roll in the back of your head when eating really really good food. I love that you take your family everywhere too. Its commendable, your a good man.

Im been thinking over years about this,where did the food go,how did that fat from the food mess it up.
well he is aging fast. He looks way older and energetically heavier.
Likely they fast between shoots.
He works out a lot too
This place is located on Sarasin Rd of Lumphini Park (northside of the park) and is CLOSED on Mondays!! I just walked the entire park only to find out that they were closed today 😭😭
Thanks. It's a big park and I would hate to have to walk it to find this place. Then finding it closed must have been terrible!
Almost all of street food stalls in BKK closed on every Monday .It 's official cleaning day.
