Ok 👍👍👍
Thanks for making such amazing videos!
Can you come to Grenada 🎉
You'll never get any disease 🦟 🪰 trust me. I think you never got COVID 😅
Its absolutely incredible that you’re giving Yia his first experience to see his heritage. Amazing!
Wrong!
@@ipman9165
Wong!
I love Yia! So glad you've given him this opportunity to visit his homeland, Sonny. I'm looking forward to the series!!
i like him too great energy haha
Am i the only one who eats while watching exclusively Sonny eat stuff??
Same
this show is actually a big part of my lunch watch list haha
You're not alone. I always watch while eating
Nah I watch so I don't get hungry.
Same here
As a Lao/Viet American girl, I Thank you Sonny for sharing our culture with the world! Love this 🫶🏼🇱🇦🇻🇳
Dang! You Viet and Laos!. Hello...
ស្រស់ស្អាតណាស់
Beautiful culture indeed
Stop eat blood and Ecoly bacteria from intestin please !!!!
Lao/ Thai right here
I'm full viet but grew up eating Laos food bc that's where my dad was born and imma tell you rn, that duck blood salad is one of the best things ever. Super refreshing and it pairs great with a cold Heineken. Thanks Sonny for all the love for SEA countries.
I am Lao American and I approve! Thank you for showing the beauty of our food culture! ❤
"Beauty" = bugs and raw blood
Bruhhh
@@wajspdon’t be ignorant
@@noswbleedthey are literally eating bugs and boiled Buffalo shit.
@@wajspsonny is choosing to eat the more extreme foods.
@@noswbleed I may be ignorant but cow shit and roaches don't appeal to me, either.
The way sonny becomes extra generous with wierd food.😂😂 He just had to give the translator one like, if I have to eat this wierd shit you have to aswell
Yia seems like such a genuine nice guy. Really happy you brought him along!
Many people do not know that Northern Thai Isan food actually originated from Laos. Many people do not think Lao has its own culture and cuisine, so I think this is a great way for people to gain some cultural insight. I would love to see next time you try some of the more mainstream and common food, as it is more palatable for foreign taste usually. The more exotic dishes are great too, but it may discourage people from trying Lao cuisine if that is all that they think Lao food consist of. Thank you for this educational video and keep up the great work!
16:54 the blood duck dish is delicious. I know it doesn’t look like it, but taste it and you will love it. The Vietnamese eat this dish too. Not many people know how to make it too, it’s quite complex to get the blood mixture right to eat. It’s a drinking dish, paired with beer Lao, amazing combo. We also eat with with crackers and chase it with mint leaves, garlic clove and ginger pieces. Craving for it, we don’t have it at restaurants here in Australia 🇦🇺. It’s gotta be made from home.
there actually is some in australia but it doesn’t taste as good unfortunately
There better be more content coming with Yia as co-host haha. Easily one of my favourite co-hosts you've had onboard
Im glad sonny and his crew are doing a series here in my dads country, it reminds me of all the foods him and my mom make, and it makes me crave these dishes so bad. Im looking forward to the whole laos documentary at the end. Thank you BEFRS
Dude! I’ve been patiently waiting for you to do a special on Laos 🇱🇦 street food! So glad you were able to make it happen and super grateful for the fascinating, educational, and entertaining content. Y’all are so awesome, Sonny and team!
Man, am I alone when I say this show is addictive!
I started from the beginning and literally ran out of episodes to watch 😭
I don't watch until another one drops
Definitely not alone! :)
Very
By this point Sonny will eat anything and call it yummy 😋
😄😅😂👍🏾
I mean he probably does find it yummy, he's been eating a massive variety of stuff his palate must be super flexible
or he's just being very polite
Give the man a cucumber and he loses ut
this duo is so positive its awesome!
Damn.. Its not a joke to be a traditional food revviewer. Hats off to you sunny 👏
My man literally ate 💩
@@hellofriend760 exactly 🤮
I don't understand why people eat that, it's not tasty and it must be a health risk
Respect
@@stavex245 u and i agree. And I'm from Africa
This is the best episode in a long time, loving it!
My husband and I are completely enamored with all of the amazing episodes of BEFRS... Each and every episode is phenomenal!
WOW! What a great treat getting to see Yia again. This had to be a GIANT thrill for him! ❤☮
I love Yia! Fantastic opportunity for him, and great content for us, it’s a win-win.
This channel mastered narrating stories in a way that makes you feel you uncover the mystery yourself.
Thank you Sonny! 👏👏👏
Hey Sonny I just want to say I love watching your shows I learn about so many different foods and so many different cultures it's unreal and it's amazing.
Im Hmong and have my own restaurant. My husband is Vietnamese. I serve Hmong, Vietnamese, Thai, and Lao food. My dad always told me how much he loves ducks but only muscovey ducks bc it takes like beef. Now I raise only muscovey ducks. I used to raise Peking ducks. There's no comparison. I make muscovey ducks for Thanksgiving, Christmas, and birthdays. It's out of this world.
Sonny I've really appreciated these videos about Laos and other countries from that area of the world. It's so unlike anything I've ever come in contact with, it makes me want to visit! As an American I've never eaten every part of any animal that I've been served; watching this video makes me wonder how we got so far away from our food. Can't wait for more!
Yiavang is so chilling person I liked his vibe😂
When I first found this channel it was manly about the food but now its all about the food and the culture behind it and the people. Which I love keep up the great work.
Shout-out to the team behind the editing and montage, your work is amazing!
🇬🇧👍✨
I'm so amazed that Sunny doesn't have terrible gout.
Sunny is so amazing to try this 😮. I wouldn’t have the courage. Thank you Sunny
Khao poon is my absolute favourite noodle dish of all time!! And thats going up against any pho and ramen!! The Khao Poon broth is just so complex and unique, and with all the crispy veggies and toppings 😍😍😍, it's the absolute best!! I wish i was eating it now!
I freaking LOVE it! i really, really, really want to visit Laos someday. For some reason I've always had an obsession with it, mainly because as a teenager I dated an Isaan girl from Thailand for a few months, and I found out they're culturally pretty similar to Laotians (according to themselves). That relationship didn't last long (it was not that much to begin with anyway), but my fascination for Laos stayed :)
Thai Isaan are descendants of Lao people. Thailand took over portion of north east through war from way back in the days. So the laos people that live there became part of Thailand. Their language and culture still similar to Laos, you can tell they're different from Bangkok people.
Many Lao people moved from the eastern bank of the Mekong to the west right before the Laos was ceded to the French, one of the many factors why Isaan culture is so similar to Lao.
It reminds me of my childhood…
You want more?
Nah I’m good…. 😂😂😂
You're an amazing guy! I don't eat meat but love the way you make every food normal. Thanks for the education, keep it up.
Great episode!!! Can’t wait for the rest
We need more of Chef Yia on your show! You both are very entertaining!
I've had the chef's restaurant on my wish list for when I go to Minnesota since last year and finally getting there October, here's hoping and love guest star reconnectings.
Great video! My Lao friend invited me over for some duck pizza and it turned out to be the duck blood dish at the end. Wasn’t what I was expecting!
Lao food is great. Has a proper zing to it. Nothing like some grilled Lao sausage and beef tongue with sticky rice wrapped in some lettuce and herbs.
They seem to make their larb with a hero dose of heat.
It’s all great drinking food
Love ya stuff great work
Another classic. Thank you!
Literally love the show can’t believe this content is free, you and the team deserve all the success you get ❤ 🇬🇧
Love your videos and love Lao food too. Nice to see you in Lao again.
lmao i love the elder bug vendor lady , she is so charming for her age
another banger episode like always
Cannot wait to go back and visit Laos. Miss it every second
Love seeing a new twist to the show, its not that the concept is old just adding in something new. Having someone from the culture that has been more in the USA than their country of origin, if people that live in the country somtimes dont know many things about it now someone that lives outside to see what there is to offer. Love the show.
Awesome video enjoy it. And great adventure. 👍
Can't wait for the rest of this series
The bitter laab bile best dish ever!! 🤤🤤 And like how Yia was with the raw blood dish at first I was like that too but once I ate it it's 💣💣💣
Theres a cicada festival here in indiana!! They serve cicada ice cream, deep fried cicadas, as well a cicada egg rolls and so much more
I didn't know some americans eat cicadas, that's actually so interesting
@@abilawaandamari8366 Yup and all there are also other Bug eating festivals here in the states.
@@courtneyhenderson3474 Yup. On the east coast people here would eat opossum, squirrel, alligator, and iguana just to name a few.
@@genxiong2695 yes I lived in Florida for 6 years and have had most of those just not opossum and squirrel yet. But I'll add them to my bucket list!!!
I ate a live cicada off a tree when I was in middle school as a dare and it surprisingly wasn’t bad really citrusy flavored
Thanks for the show
I’m so excited that chef Gordon and you are putting Laos on the map!!! Thank you!!
Sonny is the greatest all around the world food channel who is never bias and just love food!
love this show. only food show i can't watch while eating
Hahahahaha
Great content & info, very traditional dishes that we often have.
That harmonica playing with the rooster was one of the most genius editing transitions ever 😂🤯🔥 I hope that 2.5 seconds gets some recognition
Love Lao food ❤️❤️❤️🇱🇦🇱🇦🇱🇦! Laab dip-raw beef salad with bile ລາບດິບ. and duck blood ເລືອດເເປງ salad featured in this video rank among some of favorite Lao dishes! 😋😋😋
ແປງ or ເປັດ?
This was a very interesting adventure but hard to watch I could not eat one half of what Sonny ate on this trip he is amazing . Travel safe
This is beyond just food reviews. Bigups Sonny🎉❤
He is a good co host, good to see him back in this way. This should be a good series.
‼️‼️ Welcome to Laos 🇱🇦 ❤❤❤ 🙏😀
One day i plan on visiting my motherland again.
Excellent as always 👍👍👍
Another great episode, just finished the Peru one. Love the co hosts you find!
You offer a high quality show but here, probably because of Yia, this is your best show in my book! Sonny try to make the food outrageous but Yia remind us people eat this day in and day out... the duality is epic!
I want to go all these places. Love to try new foods 😁❤️
I comment at 24sec. I know thus gon be one of the best episodes. 2 MN natives in Southeast Asia. Great
great video! I'll be there in 2 months to experience it myself, can't wait!
I love how the co host is relating every food item to "drinking food"...😂😂😂😂.
Someone is an alcoholic 😂😂😂
"The American way" lol. I always knew our food selections were limited but man this show never ceases to surprise me with just how miniscule our food options really are.
Speaking of, its crazy just how many countries have different variations of blood sausage, but not once have I ever seen it here.
I'm Still cool with not eating bugs, raw Blood or shit.
@@nurudinnuhefendic8951same. So we should be grateful that we are blessed. Most countries that eat the weirdest are due to experiencing severe famine in the past and resorted to other things just to survive.
Okay? Good for yall?
Yeahh american options are so minuscule! Where are our servings of bugs, raw blood, and boiled buffalo shit?
Yeah most of these countries eat this stuff bc it was the only food they could obtain at one point. But now they've gotten used to and even enjoy it.
I love Laos food!!! Great video. So happy
Thanks for showing our Hmong brother again. He’s a good man.. lots of love for both.
As a Lao Girl, thank you for showcasing our food and culture 😊
So nobody makes a mistake eating this 🤢🤢
Alien food so disgusting
🪳🪳🦗💩💩
A bunch of numb nuts have responded above.
Yal hating. Those bugs are extreme food, what ya eat? preservatives, veggie burgers. Canned fish?. So have some respect you poop heads
Trying India most expensive food series will be huge success
Another great video sunny
I love the coloring of this episode's video...keep it up
Great job, very entertaining thank you Sunny 😀
Soony*
As a Hmong American, this was an awesome collab with Yia, and hope to one day go to Laos too.
Laos food bomb! Hmong food copy cat.
Love the channel. This is the first episode I would not have tried any of these dishes.
Thanks for sharing! 👍
It's not poo, it's gastric acid. It also has a less bitter version of their bile soup in the Philippines
thanks for the precision, I wouldn't eat poop but vomit that's entirely different
yay Laos!
I have been fan of this channel since it had not even 200k subscribers. Very happy to see the channel is growing faster now☺️☺️☺️❤❤❤
Hope you go to Guizhou, China one day and try traditional Hmong foods. There, you'll see the traditional Hmong foods without SEA influence
New video let's go 🔥🔥🔥
🇱🇦 So happy you were able to finally visit my country. Laos is no doubt one of the most slept on culinary cuisines in the world. So much music, food and culture to dive into. Iron Chef Yia is the perfect partner for this. Hope you’re able to make your way towards Pakse.
Hell naw I disagree he need a real Lao dude to show him some Real shit, dat chef dude was in another video claiming lao food to be Hmong food. Ppl need to get they fax skrate 💯
I’m lao too, my favorite dish is probably papaya salad or lao sausages
@@qmoney414don't get mad or jealous. Laos food is hmong foods, real laos is call padest. Yia didn’t claim padest to be hmong foods, why so jealous. You should jealous that now your kip money is useless now and your laos so proud people start to use the Chinese yuan in your country ok. Later you can used your useless laos kip to wipe your ass after eating your real laos foods padest ok.
Always freakin love your adventure ❤
The ant eggs are really amazing very delicious 😋😋..
Nice place good food❤
This might be the best co-host yet. This is going to be an AMAZING series.
Guy is hmong not even laos so wtf you talking about
Hello Sonny from Ban Huai Sai Tai, Phetchaburi Province, Thailand!! I love your Food and Travel Videos and have been a Subscriber for several years now! ❤ I have been to Lao, as the natives pronounce it, i.e. Singular, NOT Plural, and enjoyed Vientiane several times. The street foods that I found were much like the street foods here in Thailand but not as spicy hot. Thank you all once again and please keep up these good works!! Rob Allen and Family here in Ban Huai Sai Tai, Phetchaburi Province, Thailand 🐘🐒🌴🌴🐒🐘♥️😄😄😄😎👍👍😉
Incredible research
This show is great never ceases to amaze me !!!!!!!
awesome
My man! Sonny much love and respect man you are a living legend
Thank you Sonny for making this episode for my people! I'm pretty sure y'all was out there beastin on some other good Lao food🙏🙏🙏💯
My rule of thumb is I always try any food at least once. But that bile and raw beef one...idk man lol
i hope everyone has a good day/night !! thanks for providing this video sonny!
Some of those I wouldn't put in my mouth and I am from Asia, you are very brave man.
