KHON KAEN, THAILAND (ขอนแก่น) - Today we’re in Khon Kaen (ขอนแก่น), northeastern Thailand to uncover Thailand’s hidden dish of Isaan; Au pla (Herbal freshwater fish soup อ๋อปลา). It’s a traditional dish of a medley of herbs with freshwater fish and seasoned with a splash of fermented fish sauce.
Au pla (Herbal freshwater fish soup อ๋อปลา)
Part 2) THAILAND’S HIDDEN DISHES, with Tourism Authority of Thailand - This is Part 2 of this 5 Part video series, where I’m traveling around Thailand to eat 5 hidden dishes!
Som Tam Kuk Kai (ส้มตำ กุ๊กไก่) - maps.app.goo.gl/6D6oBcu99oNnE... - First, when you visit Khon Kaen, you absolutely don’t want to miss eating som tam pu plaraa, green papaya salad with fermented fish sauce and crab. We had some grilled chicken and soup just to get the mouth juices watering before the bigger meal!
Huan Kamnang (เฮือนคำนาง ขอนแก่น) - maps.app.goo.gl/Gj1vHdEWLNs4A... - It was a huge honor to meet up with Khun Kamnang from Huan Kamnang (เฮือนคำนาง ขอนแก่น) in Khon Kaen. She’s a writer, historian and Chef who promotes traditional and often times long lost Isaan foods, and she’s been promoting Au pla (Herbal freshwater fish soup อ๋อปลา) for years. It was an absolutely sensational dish and meal experience, with all the other dishes she prepared as well. I can say it was one of the best Isaan meals I’ve ever had.
แก่น I KAEN - maps.app.goo.gl/ikChYhSngmnDH... - Finally to complete this Thai food tour we went to a new restaurant called Kaen where they are serving modern takes on Isaan food.

U know its spicy when mark is crying

[@Teddywolf]

For a moment I didn't know that was even possible

[@lukej7834]

I was gonna say! that has to be melt your face off spicy!!

[@SiZoel]

not only spicy, but fire spicy😂it gonna melt your tongue

[@kaushikkv8423]

A average person like me would die

[@marthaboswell9307]

Umm he is going to be crying again later.. come on ice cream....

[@Fafa-kt2qo]

As a Thai, my family and I always talked about how the Tourism of Thailand should sponsor Mark to show the true colour of Thai food to the world. No one can do it better than you Mark! We are so excited to watch your journey and travel vicariously through you!

[@wichaik.paisal8326]

เขาได้รับการสนับสนุนจากททท.อยู่แล้วครับ

[@HonkaiLover382]

No thanks

[@arnowillekes7979]

I suspect nearly all Thai food is sponsored by the Thai government in some way or another?

[@jurigelato4366]

She's a historian? I would say she's a world class chef. Those dishes were made with all the love only dedicated people can make. I couldn't believe what you were served.

[@sakuraisp6974]

Absolutely

[@jigarnagda7748]

I am watching Mark since four five years now.. I don't remember he ever Cried eating anything spicy. I cant even imagine the spice level here

[@arnowillekes7979]

Same here that was frightening! He should drag Chili Klaus or Sean Evans along next time 😂😬😋👍🏽

[@madellynpineda5020]

That's what I was thinking too😂 I've never seen him get spiced up until today.

[@clairemc]

Four things I have learnt in this video... 1) The food is one of the most beautifully presented I've ever seen. 2) Fact, Mark actually looked like he was having a food baby 😂 3) The chilli must have been on another level to make him cry 4) I really do not want to eat my tuna Jacket potato after watching this! Ha.. Just amazing food here!

[@BornBeAwesome]

Those foods make the Big Mac look stupid in my hand.

[@kevinomalley1521]

This video is why Mark is right at the top of this FoodTuber game. Outstanding. And what a country Thailand is, can't wait to return.

[@MarkWiens]

Thank you for your support, hope you can come back to Thailand soon!

[@nejo4664]

The most Thai chilis 🌶️ I had in a papaya salad is 20. 50 Thai chilis🌶️ is beyond spicy. That's straight fire! 🔥 The spice heat definitely intensifies the more chilies added. Mark handled it well, while getting teary eyed and nose runny.👍🏽

[@sophoursasmr1099]

Very good

[@Rockman123]

AFTER eating ALL this food I don't understand how this guy doesn't get sick???

[@carlosandante2149]

​@@Rockman123 i think there are lots of health benefits to chili. and mark seems to be quite used to it

[@siranimcneill7589]

I’m Thai and I agree waaay too much chilli even for me . 20 is enough

[@SlowChuck]

​@@Rockman123oh you get "sick" but it normal for fire eaters

[@singloc3021]

I know Mark has already made it but when you have the Ministry of Tourism of Thailand asking him to shoot videos for Thailand; yeah, it's a big deal. Happy for Mark and his family living the hard earned dream.

[@MarkWiens]

Thank you so much for your support!

[@crowjane9524]

Visited Thailand in 2011 where I had Som Tum for the first time, and it was love at first bite. The lip-numbing heat is absolutely addictive! Watching this vid 12 years later made my mouth juices gush 🤤. (Same happens when I see someone trying Durian - lol). Unfortunately Thai food is not big in South Africa, and if you do find it, it has been adapted to the South African palate. I would happily sell my soul for one more bite.

[@nicknamean]

I wonder how many people Mark has inspired to visit Thailand? It sure is on my bucket list!

[@chorunynmica]

I don't know why but I always love to watch Mark eating. Personally, I don't like spicy, fishy, veggies but I really enjoy watching Mark's videos😂

[@blockchaineducationmanager5808]

Yes, its fun watching him pig out, but everytime I watch these, I think of all the people in the world who are starving. Not to mention all the food that he wastes while making these videos.😭

[@Randy7201]

@blockchaineducationmanager5808 What are you doing to curb world hunger?? Mark never wastes are u delusional? Pig out u say..dont u pig out everyday...dont be that person in the glass house...just be quiet if u cannot say something good

[@ckunderck7318]

@blockchaineducationmanager58083 It’s pretty awful if all that food is being wasted

[@bigbossbiggis]

@@blockchaineducationmanager5808 That's why we need someone like Mark, who appreciates the food that we get to eat

[@marshmELLUw]

The lady was proud to present all those preserved cultural dishes. And preserved culture is attractive. Btw 50 chillies are a threat to life. 😅

[@PawanM]

When Mark says it's spicy, it's spicy. That papaya salad got him!

[@ruru.5085]

I’d be hallucinating for days on the toilet after that chilli overdose.I love my chilli but damn mark you are the spicy king 👑

[@rickdaystar477]

During my visit to Thailand I spent the whole ten days eating nothing but " street food" the best food experience of my life. I miss it. 👍

[@SaikeeKonosukeLuc]

Kudos to this lady, amazing host. Hopefully she will be able to preserve the tradition. Ty for the video Mark.

[@freevortex3380]

Mark is simply the absolute best.....just in a league all of his own. Just genuine enthusiasm and love for what he does

[@patriciafrancis9134]

It's wonderful that the Thai government is working to save recipes which very easily could be lost for ever in the next 20-25 years.

[@The_torero]

I like how giggly and trembly Mark gets as he's eating. He seems to get a real "high" from food.😂😂😂

[@jonholland6067]

Chilli will do that!

[@The_torero]

@@jonholland6067 ..Lol..he does it in all the videos where he finds the food delicious.🤣. I must say, he handled the chilli very well though.

[@geee7672]

....this lady is a master chef. I would eat like this my whole life and she is so meticulous with her presentations....IT IS YUMMY. Asia, South America and North Afrika have mind-blowing traditional food....BUT THIS IS EPIC!!! EXQUISITE. Some cultures like to brag but nothing can beat this Thai dish....this needs a lot of promo.

[@lisam5576]

You know it's another dimension of spicy when Mark is sweating and crying. I imagine the rest of us mere mortals would be transported to a different plane of existence. Love all of Mark's videos but this series is so exceptionally interesting!

[@beetledune9264]

Hahaha,,if me,my soul will long gone.3 chilis for me,enough.haha

[@503Sparky]

I loved seeing your wife's reaction to the food in the last video you should show her reactions more she's delightful ☺

[@XxLukeNukemxX]

Thai foods and spices are amazing I could eat a whole dish of delicious thai peppers along with every meal if I traveled there. Thanks for sharing this. Thai people know their spices very very well.

[@Ilikekeepingitreal]

Oh this video is reaching 10 million . Those Lotus flowers so beautiful and I did not know it’s editable

[@marybornmusic]

For all of us who truly love spicy food, Mark goes back for more as soon as his food is so spicy it brought tears to his eyes. 😂

[@wombat5252]

Gordon Ramsay would have a field day there, finding out how all of these ingredients work so well together and how he could use them. Lol

[@streetunboxing1]

Mark always good to watch your video because of your deductible explaination and your 2 or more food coverage in one video. Most of foodie vloggers cover only one dish at time but you show us more that pleasant to watch.

[@HypurrrBoy]

Wow. I'm blown away by the sheer uniqueness of all of these wonderfful dishes. The cookery is just masterful and I admire the amount of work it must involve. Amazing.

[@grapesz1085]

Really good to see and learn about those cultural dishes of Thailand. Congratulations to the Thai lady who prepared and presented this native Thai dishes.

That pumpkin almond pork dish had my mouth watering. Im sure the crickets in there added a nutty depth to the flavor. It looked so awesome 😎👍

[@TravelbyDartTV]

I'm currently having a quick visit in the Philippines and it's currently 1AM right now so you could imagine how much this makes me hungry! Now, I found myself on a covert mission to find the leftover pizza in the fridge like it's hidden treasure lol

I love any kinds of salads. I just hate the shredding part. The elderly done pulled a switcheroo on me & gave me covid. Now my baby has it. & I can only be in all my above spaces spaces for so long. Thx alot, the elderly. My poor pumpkin bumpkin. There's only so much I can give her to make her feel better. & I hope I can even hold yummy food down. If I can, then maybe it's not that bad, I think

[@mxmus08]

Those platters looked insane and the presentation was amazing. That meal was fit for a king.

[@SlithereenSoul]

When I saw Mark showered the chef lady with praise, I raised my eyebrow a little. But when she brought her first tray out, I thought wow she’s the real deal those dishes look amazing. Sadly I don’t think I’d ever have a chance to try as I’m the only one in my central Thai family and friends that enjoy “traditional Isan bitterness”.

Its been a few times that the food is even hot for Mark🤣. My first bite of the salad consisted of a ball of sticky rice dipped in the juice, wrapped with the Herb and some crab. Then chased by a spoonful of the chiles, papaya, and the juice. It was a welcoming and humbling experience. So when I seen Mark's face, it brought back that wonderfully painful experience.🤣🤣🥵🤯🤧🤧🥵🤣👍🏾
