    As a fellow asian also born and raised in the US, going to Mexico is truly another world, and i haven’t found another place quite as active or unashamed to be vibrant and themselves. Always ready to share their culture, food, and languages. People just seem to be more genuine in Mexico, especially when they have their big families around.

      There’s a lot of Asians and Asian influence in parts of Baja California in Mexico and other parts of Mexico. They have definitely contributed and influenced some of the culture in the regions in Mexico the Asian diaspora is in. There are Koreans, Japanese, Chinese, Filipino, etc. Fun fact: The majority of the early population in Mexicali was actually Chinese and the cultural influences are strong there. There are also many other regions of Baja California, Yucatan Peninsula, Jalisco, Mexico City, and other states and cities in Mexico that definitely have East Asians and Southeast Asians and their influence though.
      Mexico City also has a good Indian population and they have an organization called Indian Women's Association of Mexico.
      Sorry I wrote so much, I just got excited because Mexico and other countries in Latin America have Asian Latinos! And it’s not a very well known fact
      Asians are considered “la cuarta raíz”, meaning the fourth root of Mexico. The first 3 roots would Indigenous, African, and European

      If you haven’t already, you have to try Southern and Coastal Mexican cuisine! It’s so underrated in my opinion. They also use a bunch of plantains and banana leaves which is rare for Northern or Central Mexican cuisine. But it’s just a very interesting cuisine and culture down there in the Southern and Coastal Mexico. Very different culture in each region as well. It’s almost like going into different countries with each region in Mexico

    This is so beautiful!!! also Mexico is such a huge country filled with delicious foods that vary by region. In some parts of Mexico you are most likely to eat menudo or stews in general with tortillas, others with bread, and other regions eat their stews with red Mexican rice. Mexican cuisine goes way beyond and is so diverse.

    I'm glad that you enjoyed our food, the batter used for "Chiles Rellenos" is just egg. You Whip the egg white so it takes volume, then add the egg yolk and mix it. Then you take your "Chiles" previously roasted, peeled and stuffed with queso (cheese) cover them in flour and dip them on the egg, then you fry them on a pan with hot cooking oil.

    The best burritos I've ever had were in Ciudad Juarez. They are way different than the rice filled mission burritos you see in Northern California. The ones I tried kept it simple: no more than maybe three ingredients. The less is more method worked so well--especially given how well prepared the ingredients were. So much good food in Chihuahua!

    ELP has been doing a lot to elevate the city, parts of downtown has changed soooooo much.

Just for future reference, CH in Spanish is pronounced the same as you would say 'cheese' but SH is different since the H in Spanish is silent, with the exception of CH. When you say 'deshebrada' it's actually pronounced des-e-BRA-da because of the silent H.

    I’m so happy that you went on this trip and that you were adventurous enough and open minded to cross to Mexico.
    I’m from Ciudad Juarez and I’m so happy that you enjoyed our food, there is so much history in between this two towns and much more to see but I loved every second of this video, very well made and the storytelling was impressive👏👏👏 next time try “La Pila” in Ciudad Juárez which sells flautas and you’ll love it👍

    Great video Dooby! 1st time I noticed your food tour of El Paso/ Juarez area, I have family there, I’m from Cuauhtémoc, Chihuahua, The three cultures City: Mestizo, Mennonite and Tarahumara. The food looked delicious! The green chile in the tamales and chile relleno burrito is chile chilaca, also known as Anaheim green peppers, widely grown in the state of Chihuahua, and the orchata is basically made with rice and water! Juarez is where the burritos were invented! I enjoyed your adventure very much! Wonderful takes and scenery from Franklin Mountain! Street scenes and food locations are awesome! Thank you for sharing such unique experience! Keep on Doobupping! 👍Blessings! 🌻

    You need to have Southern and Coastal Mexican cuisine! It’s super underrated and we also use a bunch of ingredients that Northern Mexicans don’t. Some of our staples include plantains, plantain leaves and lot of fish! The tamales in Southern Mexico are made with Banana Leaves instead of corn husks. Love both tamales, but I’m a sucker for the banana leaf tamales

      They mostly serve menudo blanco with bread (bolios) in Mexico City. In California we use bolios or corn tortillas with menudo & call flautas: taquitos, & are only served with guacamole-avocado. Not in a soup. We were surprised visiting my husband’s dad’s family in El Paso to eat this different style. Everything floating that’s called Brandao (bath). Now that we live nearby we make our own that we grew up with in Los Angeles. The Chinese markets sell the concha pandulce because both countries were influenced by the French.

    Wow love your detail you provide of each food you eat and love how you try to say the names in Spanish! 👍 I can tell you are a connoisseur of good food! I now want to go visit El Paso and Juarez! I think you need to do a tour of some of the best cities in Mexico, the food is out of this world depending on the state and city you are in. Example, In Oaxaca is the capitol of the most variety and amazing red chile pods in the world and they have over 30 types of Mole you can try! Take care and enjoy life and great food!

    My best friend proposed to his wife in Puerto Vallarta. Best vacation I’ve been on. The locals were very friendly and the food was great. I live in California so there are plenty of Mexican food places around but authentic Mexican food taste nothing like the usual Mexican food at home. My friend suggested a few places that sells something similar but the prices are on the expensive end.

    The green tamal sauce is not w poblano :) it’s made w tomatillo verde which is like a sort of mini green tomato and it’s used in all of Mexico it’s not a thing just in the North :) poblano doesn’t give off that vibrant almost neon green and it also doesn’t give off that acidity

    VIVA EL PASO MI CUIDAD SIEMPRE! I have been putting off watching this because it makes me so very homesick! You went to many of my favorite places in El Paso, that’s the side of town I grew up in! Manhattan Heights is where my grandparents bought their house, raised my mom, her siblings and then me and my siblings and lived for 70+ years. This summer my grandpa passed and we are selling their home in that area. His favorite restaurant was Kiki’s and it hit me hard seeing you go- it’s a family tradition to eat there for us.
    To hear you talk about your love for the city had me in tears, I felt beyond represented and am very touched by this video… my childhood in a nutshell- THANK YOU!

  • @TheEnnisfan

    The thing about Chico's is always ask a local how we eat it. You're supposed to eat the tacos (flautas) with a fork, so you don't get the sauce all over your hands and fingers. You were right in pouring the green salsa into the taco boat, but the pro (and local) move is to dip and scoop the leftover red / green salsa and cheesy goodness with your fries. It doesn't get better than that. The hot dog is also a local thing, so most out of towners won't get it. Understandable. I liked it when I was a kid. ;) Kiki's is bomb and you ordered some hits, but they're known for their Machaca plate which is legendary. Besides a Mexa, only a Korean would truly appreciate a bowl of Menudo. 😂 El Centenario (and El Compa across the street) are the OG and best burritos in J-Town. You're very fortunate to have tried them. Legend has it that one of the pans used there is 75 years old! More impressive is they survived the cartel wars of the early 2000s. BTW, Topo is the king of sparkling waters.

    I live in Juarez, and if you ever come back, let me show you what's there to visit in this city :)
    Many consider Juarez to be a night-life place only, but there's a lot more here to experience the authentic Norteño life. That said, probably you don't need my guide, as you very accurately visited Chico's tacos and La Nueva Central, like a true local.
    Also, thank you so much for showing Juarez and El Paso as they are. Not many people get out of the classics like Mexico City, Cancun and Guadalajara (to name a few), and miss out on the wonders the north has to offer.
