Pad Thai without peanuts or fresh lime?!
Krista L I know right. peanuts offer that little crunch and the lime makes the flavour base so much more interesting.
Not sure is used the correct noodles either.
Krista L I can't say if it taste good or bad. But by the look of it, it's so different from what you can get in Thailand.
Krista L Also, no dried shrimp. Not authentic.
maybe because its a food challenge and adding that can be a slowing factor to the people who'll take this challenge
30 bucks for noodles!!! That's crazy!! Yeah no peanuts or lime. The sauce must be good. Mike knows this pad Thai probably didn't taste good because he didn't close his eyes on the first bit lol
That's not a scale on whether it's good I mean when Mikey eats pho. He doesn't close his eyes.
@@justindai8401 he always closes his eyes when he loves it he also provides commentary on how good it is. On this he kept saying things like 'I'm starving' or 'it's delicious'. Generic things. You can tell he didn't enjoy it.
Next time don't bring a wallet lol that will really get you to finish
Sungmin253 hhahaa oh yeah.
Yeah
Thats risky......... i like it
I don't blame you for not finishing it in time. It honestly didn't look very good. Looks like they really skimped on the good ingredients, it was all noodle. I would never come to this restaurant.
Right that was not real pad thai
They probably just cut costs with the giant bowl maybe they put more care in a normal bowl
@@freeasthewind8463 Correct
Some one calls Matt Stonie for this...
agree.. xD
I dont think professional eater are allowed to do these kinda things
Professional eaters are allowed to do restaurant challenges. Contracted professional eaters just have a restriction for joining unsanctioned eating competitions by their league.
Btw, I think Matt can inhale this in 10mins also. But Pete would take quite a bit longer lol. Pete is speed, not capacity.
This is only 4.5 pounds. Matt frequently Downs 8-9 lbs in his videos. 4.5 pounds would be a breeze for him.
I am from Thailand. I am sorry, that is not pad thai AT ALL. That is Char kue teow ( fried thin rice noodle) which is famous in Malaysia and southern part of Thailand.
Haylor Stevejuanes It's not Char Kway Teow either. Char Kway Teow doesn't have tamarind sauce. In my opinion, it's more like an incomplete Pad Thai.
I don't know whether this is 'authentic' Pad Thai.. but I can tell you it looks NOTHING like Char Kway Teow.
DOES IT HAVE CHAR!!
Doesn't a proper Pad Thai have palm sugar, tamarind, pickled radish, shallots, eggs, bean shoots, peanuts, dried (re-hydrated) shrimp and Chinese chives (garlic chives) plus typically firm tofu and a protein? Oh! And don't forget the lime and chili powder on the side!
And what exactly is so 'thai' about Pad Thai anyway?
I LOVE your commentaries!! I love hearing you explain what is happening! Thank you for sharing!!
I'm so glad your channel is growing rapidly, I remember back when you only had 20k subscribers, now look at you! Keep being yourself that's what we all enjoy!
I've never had pad thai before it looks really good!
Jason Huntley it is!
Jason Huntley You've gotta try it man, it's the best
Jason Huntley
?????what?!!!!! Where the heck do u live?????
There's pad Thai restaurants in every city here in North America
Mistylilac Misty in a small town closest movie theater is two hours away if that give you a better idea. I'll keep your advice next time I am in the city!
she barely put any chicken..its like a bowl of noodles
Chives, crushed peanuts,shrimps missing. More like the flat rice noodles with sweet soya sauce minus the tamarind juice.
Yes, that's what I am thinking, too little chicken.
Will anand they don’t want you to win they just want your money
okasha61 it’s a challenge
chicken is more expensive than noodles
Thanks Mike! I love these food challenges.
Dish looked delicious Mikey!! Enough for an entire family not just one person, can't believe you actually managed to eat it all but you did! Love your videos, I always enjoy them and it makes me really want to try a variety of different foods....thanks!
that bowl cost $5 to make lol
He didn't finish cuz it was nasty. Same amount of chicken and eggs as normal, just 5x the noodles. No thai flavors and peanuts and garnishes, green onion, shrimp, lime. Since when did pad thai have carrots? Did they just want to get rid of leftover ingredients?
ILykToDoDuhDrifting i'm an indian woman and i dont know much about thai cooking. But even I can say that it just looked like it lacked on flavor and they overcompensated with noodles. Not impressed
A lot of places actually put julienned carrots along with bean sprouts. But yea, can't believe they didn't add more protein and even shrimp paste/fish sauce, lime and peanuts.
ILykToDoDuhDrifting hi
James Ingrid Judging by your comment I'd say some men know even less.
He was referring to running the restaurant, not the cooking part.
Hi Mike! I just want to thank you for putting out such awesome, positive videos; sometimes I need to watch a man each a whole bunch of food for a little while instead of think about the state of my country. So thanks.
I really like your channel Mike. I like the traveling that you do. I stumbled onto your channel a week ago or so and cant stop watching your videos. please keep up the good work
good job at trying Mikey your the best. God bless . 🍴🍝
30 min is not enough time!!! At least 45 min!!!
Love your videos dude! Solid Effort!
Great vid. I have started eating so many more noodle dishes since watching your channel and have bought so many spices and sauces. You go
Nice to see u trending mikey
You finished, congratulations Mikey! The half hour limit is such a shame, they shoulda made it an hour long challenge!! But now I want some pad thai XD
Hour? \o/
I have just now come across you channel and I love it already! I LOVE food and I feel you feel the same! don't stop what you are doing!
This is one of the best channels on UA-cam always amazing content thnx
Mostly rice noodles. They really skimped on everything.
Everytime Mikey Chen leave the hotel, the management have to call septic service (^^)
I love your videos! I like how you get right into the food.
after watching a bunch of videos i finally subscribed i dont even know why i like it. i even watch in on my fast day on my eat every other day diet
Why do I like watching this guy eat?
I don't think the pad thai was prepared "properly." Too much noodle for that wok!
I love watching your vids. I like that you don’t over-exaggerate when you’re eating like most you tubers. 💙💙💙💙
mickey ur a food monster!! love ur channel..
the staff seemed so friendly
That pad Thai had to be pretty expensive.
That was massive!
Senpai Samurai ww
$30 CND dollars
they said is was $30
Nice that the price wasn't jacked up though... only $30 dollars... It wasn't like other places that made the huge challenges over $50...
It was 30$
i love your 4 episode of food challenge and other. thank you
Mike, I love your food videos! You probably watch a lot of Man vs. Food because I saw your other videos with food that Adam Richman did take down. too bad he does not do the show anymore, but you have brought the Man versus Food back! The best part of any of your videos is how you show the food up close like any Travel Channel and Food Network episodes. I love your travels and the food you show! Keep it up!!!
The scariest sentence to any food restaurants owners....Mike Chen saying..."I'm starving"!
200 years go:
Our family is starvin... no food.... we can't leave the city... we don't know how to hunt...
Now:
MASSIVE PAD THAI NOODLE CHALLENGE!
LETS DO THIS!
lol
Ok
@@honestabe5153 ok
Mikey muahhh. You are so great man😍😍😍
So happy to see your video featured on the 'trending channel' hopefully your channel grows from it 🙌🏼
way to hang in there, good job!! at least it tasted good. maybe next time save some veggies, different textures for all those noodles. thanks for the vids, stay safe
I'm all down for challenges but damn that's a lot of noodles...
Yep, bulk it out with cheap ingredients, did you see how little chicken was added.
The food always looks sooooo good i always end up hungry watching mike's videos lol
That looks so good I want pad Thai now! You finished it!! Nice job
No way you would have finished that in 30 mins! 1 hr would have been fair. That's way too short of time for a food challenge that massive.
Daffney Lee That's pretty much the point of a food challenge? If someone who's not even a competitive eater could finish it in an hour, they'd lose too much money by changing the time limit.
DDELFIERRO looks like someone didn't throughly understand my comment in the context of this specific food challenge. I understand food challenges and I also understand reasonability.
Met stonie might be able to
natsu dragneel do you mean Matt Stonie? He’s take that challenge down in 7 mins or so
She said people have finish the challenge, so it's a reasonable time
I pity your insulin levels after that!😂
#20 on UA-cam Trending, Mike! Congrats! 👍
man I love your both your channel's big fan
I could only eat one noodle
That just made me crave pad thai :(
omg still amazed how you do this! youre still a champion to me! 🏆💪 😜
Great job Mike 🙌
My husband did this challenge last month.. in addition to the challenge it was also our first time eating at this restaurant. To be honest the pad thai was not very good. He hardly touched it! Left overs got thown away.
MamiFilipinaa how unfortunate, what was so bad about it I'm curious
It looked super dry and two eggs and a small amount of chicken for all of those noodles? Big rip off to me.
Compared to other places, this didn't have a fresh, crunchy taste. It was bland, too sweet, and dry. No real flavour other than sweetness. There was no shrimp, tofu, lime, fish sauce/spicy sauce on the side.
mainly people who make good food are those who know more about it and actually knows HOW to cook it. Im half Thai/Korean and since my mom is familar with korean food already for so long she cooks the best thai/thai food with chinese influence/&korean food , ....so either 1. they dont know how to cook it right , 2. they dont put enough effort into it or 3. they simply cant cook....
MamiFilipinaa i was kinda waiting on mike to comment on the food of how good it was. dont remember a mention of how the taste was so maybe the pad thai was just ok at best.
I don't get how places with food challenges can advertise a weight of the challenge if they don't really weight it to make sure it is what they say
Good job Mikey...😍👏👏
I feel for you mike, but you've been a trooper. Loving the videos. ❤❤❤
Lol if he wasn't such a chatter box he might have finished 🤣 good job anyway because I know I can't do it
Wow.. how cheap can you be? That little of chicken for all those noodles? and 30 minutes? smh
80z Baby thats rude tbh..
Not like he made it
For a moment I thought you were talking about Mikey
Dale The Chipmunk he’s yelling at the restaurant for being cheap, not Mikey
@@emmaisweird2731 no he's right that doesn't even look like real pad Thai
omg i love watching you eat...you are a good eater!
I am Thai people from Bangkok Thailand and all i can say is this food is way too far from PADTHAI.
Everyone makes it different
PLEASE make a video of how you would prepare the dish 🤗
A Aruntiwa it seemed like it would be tasteless
Cynthia Ridgeway I am Thai too but well actually what she was making was pretty close to the original Padthai in thailand except we don’t put those extra carrots or that little green stuff above lol
She even said some ppl use ketchup. Obviously they are using other shortcuts.
He needs to see a Doc for those massive wounds on his chest. I am concerned.
Mike is on trending! I'm proud of you bro.
the fact that you finished it, you're a winner mike!
ah you lost. i'm sorry mike. well, our tamarind sauce is a desert here.... if only you had more time. it looked really good
Ok, we all agree it wasn't Pad Thai, but still it seemed like a nice quick fried noodles dish.
Anything with Tamarind sauce can't be all bad.
nice to see them cooking the dish. Nice guys at that restaurant!
I'm glad you still finished it despite passing that 30 minute mark! Way to keep going Mike!
I wouldn't waste my money on that either. All I see is noodles. where are meats or shrimps? nah, not worth it.
Don't know what's bigger, the pad thai or my smile :-)
Alex Watt that's what she said
Who
That looks soooooo gooooood!!!!!!
Man, you get to eat some of the most delicious looking food. Great stuff
That isn't proper Pad Thai 😂 No peanuts or fresh lime? No green onions? And a 'home made hot sauce' haha. You each Pad Thai with four condiments - Chili, vinegar, sugar and lime (some people add extra fish sauce).
Or parra, or nam phrik, or like dozens of other condiments.
Peanuts are optional, chopsticks are silly.
Patrick Bartosz
Chopsticks for Pad Thai is actually not too weird in Thailand. Yes, spoon is more common, but using chopsticks is not wrong in this case.
Yeah in a general contact they use them, but mainly for noodle soups, and the Pad Thai carts always have them, usually for farangs that insist on eating all Asian food with chopsticks. When I see a Thai use chopsticks for Pad Thai it's because they have a few sides (eg. Som Tam) together with the Pad Thai which can warrant using chopsticks since they'll take an hour to eat it.
Patrick Bartosz Im Thai living in BKK and surrounded by Thai people. It's not just farangs who use chopsticks for Pad Thai. Thais use chopsticks too, not often, but we do.
My point was I don't agree calling him "silly" using chopsticks in this case.
Also, I'm not sure of if I get your message right, but did you said Thai people eat Som Tum using chopsticks?? Thai people eat pad thai with plara or nam phrik??
I have to use fish sauce. Authentic pad thai. My absolutely favourite food, ever! I want some now. I need some!
30 minutes is too short, greedy owners
809nel A competitive eater could kill that in less than 10.
+Derek Borba your comment says it, COMPETITIVE. This restaurant should be running competitive eating then. Why would even bother if its not for regulars/normals.
Cryptus Primero Why even bother doing the CHALLENGE if you don't want to be competitive at all? If you don't want to, easy, just eat it at your pace and pay for it.
💀
That looked amazing. I could not have eaten it all in three hours, so I think you did brilliantly!
That behind the scenes was awesome!!!
this is NOT pad thai, just a simple, regular fried rice noodle. if it's authentic pad thai, you can definitely finish it within 30mins coz it's so tasty!
It was dry, sweet noodle basically.
Moon Cake this is not a fair statement to him. how would you expect him to know what a real pad thai taste like when he hasn't tried 1 before? this is a food challenge, not food tasting, he don't need to be eating the most tasty or authentic food for a challenge. he's just being kind to say the fried noodle is tasty in front of the boss.
yolenda chua k
who ami, "most pad thai is fried noodle? " ALL pad thai are fried noodle in Thai style.
ZeliardFTW I live in DC. I have eaten Pad Thai for over 15 years. That IS NOT the dish. Pad Thai has peanuts and lime. Also, it is NEVER that dark in color. This restaurant did a HORRIBLE job.
He can now throw up with peace lol
I love that you take on these challenges. Even if you can eat a lot of food in one sitting challenges are still a whole different animal on its own. One day Mike, one day you will tackle a food challenge and win it with flying colors. Until then eat on my friend.
More food! More Mike!!! 😃😁👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 Hi from San Francisco!
Not a good idea to watch this while being hungry
dude it takes me 40 minutes to eat 5 slices of cheese pizza... .-.
will take me around 10 minutes, and that's eating slower than usual
Unknown Psycho yous a bitch
Unknown Psycho weakk
Unknown Psycho I can do that in one commercial break. (I'm also 6'2" and 250lbs, but still...)
Stay confident, takes me an hour to finish a personal pizza and a couple bread sticks.
I hope you try lechon... :) and I am always excited to see you doing those food challenges.... :)
It looks so good
Randy Santel would have this.
sooo.. Jackie Chan doin food challenges now
Still looks like Jackie Chan. Been watching his vids occasionally in the last year or two and I still see a Jackie Chan in him.
James Ingrid its just a joke, no Need to be toxic
James Ingrid So many flavours and you choose to be salty
Always a dipshit wit jackie chan joke!! 🤦♂️
James Ingrid open up dude
Love his t-shirts!
I love that stuff man
Can Matt Stonie do this?
He would of finished it if he had hot oil
I love this guy
Omg looks so good
Matt Stonie would finish this in like 5 minutes
ok
May i recommend you to come to iraq you will love it here many different kinds of food from middle eastern to chinese much love from iraq

Why not hahaha
I'd be down I know middle eastern got the girls and the food
Pignut hahaha
DeathWish780 nah, I'd rather him live
Love Beyond Science Mikey.!
keep it up
Great challenge!
They cheated. Most places gives you 1 hour to eat 5 pounds of food.
That's why you see a lot of eating challenges being done with meat or other foods. Way to many carbohydrates in the noodles. It's like eating bread. It will fill you up quickly.
Champions Eat Fruit I see you like fruit. Maybe stick to that.
Champions Eat Fruit Go pick berries while wearing a diaper, holding a butt plug in your hand, with your gay lover.
Champions Eat Fruit and I'm sure you know all about meat filling you up.
*case closed*
James Ingrid
Champions Eat Fruit Oh man. I love the hatred. Strike me down while you can!
that looks amazing
Now Mike has me craving noodles! I want noodles!
doesnt even look like Pad Thai... maybe Americanized Pad Thai...
Seng Chuong KONG ummm he is in Vancouver BC which is in Canada...
Canada is part of North America
thedemonnemo so Canadized padtai
thedemonnemo usa is not the only country in america
Gina Meléndez ???
