I appreciate how this video has no music...just the host and the natural sounds that surround him, keeping the content focused and realistic, drawing me in.

[@iamthatisnt]

Lucas is a literal masterpiece in every video. The background and context is so deep and thoughtful. Please keep the Lucas videos coming!

stop lying, it was ok at best

Facts

[@MrBlueSky0220]

Lucas is beyond national treasure level. The way he surgically breaks down the cooking techniques, flavor profiles and texture complexities is just mind blowing. His simple way of describing things makes people who aren't professional chefs to be able to understand and as well as feeling not too afraid to try new food and cooking techniques.

[@escapist83]

He's just some guy.

[@escapist83]

[@marijkeschellenbach2680]

To listen to Lucas describing food with love, respect and lusciousness is what I love about him. I always look forward to seeing his videos.

[@chutsam7465]

quite a refreshing change beyond Gordon Ramsay

[@icerag]

Great find, Bon Appetit -- Lucas is one of the most well-informed and enthusiastic hosts and chefs I've seen on a food show. He's the foodie friend who is also secretly an academic. Makes you want to try out everything he's cooking and eating. More of this series pls!

[@TheUnadgir]

Lucas is able to put into words what Mark Weins feels when he eats something delicious.

[@DRDR3ADSA]

Omg this is so legit

[@eskimofo9i6]

My thoughts exactly!!!

[@fastbuckwu]

why say many word when Yummy Face better

[@jonnyvanderhorst]

Lucas is probably the best traveling chef since Anthony Bourdain. Keep this guy on the road.

[@jtuck682]

Lucas appears to be relatively young, and yet his has such a wealth of knowledge about Chinese (Asian)cuisine! His narrative is so concise, and yet, he is speaking impromptu. He a delight to watch and listen too!😊👍

[@sihanyang7931]

I grew up in Chaoshan , and the oyster omelette I grew up eating was usually topped up with some chopped coriander, and you can dip the omelette into a sauce made by simply mixing some fish sauce and white pepper. It gives a bit more kick and umami to the oyster !

[@Soshiaircon91]

Pretty similar to Oyster omelette in other region os of SEA, I live in Singaporean and had a 70 80 percent similar version.

[@dannybee9068]

Sounds delicious!

[@halfassedfart]

@sihanyang7931 will have to check that variation

[@user-jy2qv3jf4y]

As a Thai living in Bangkok, i recommend this shop too. Their oyster omelette is one of the best.

[@karmickoala101]

Lucas could probably be the only person who'd do justice with oyster omelette commentary

[@andyzhang7890]

Lucas has a genuinely unparalleled way with words when it comes to talking about food, it's insane... You can just feel the pure joy emanating off of him when he speaks, observes, and definitely when he eats...

[@faranji]

MORE LUCAS! Best food host in the game these days.

[@MSenaLuphdika]

Bring more Lucas! His enthusiasm combined with deep knowledge and humble explanation hit my sweet spot!

[@R700Sparkles]

I LOVE how lo-fi some of Lucas' videos are! It feels just like having a friend bring me to their favorite spot :)

[@Alice_Walker]

I'm so happy to be getting more Lucas content. He's such a passionate and knowledgeable teacher. I've made or gone out and sought at a restaurant most things he's cooked/eaten. He's just so enthusiastic about the food I get massive curiousity and FOMO to eat it myself! 🤩

[@2bwuhome]

gotta love every Bon Appetit videos with Lucas in it

[@lancelotkhan4460]

I love how Lucas explains the simplicity of a dish via technique, historical context and why they are so perfect as is! 😋

[@jhonsoncharles]

The way he articulate the food 🫡 thank you.

[@halbos7637]

This is so very perfect. I really enjoyed your description and commentary. Oh so tasty!

Lucas giving live play-by-play like a pro. Giving sense to the technique!

MORE LUCAS SEND HIM AROUND THE WORLD FFS

[@GoldenOwlDoesArt]

Lucas is fantastic, more videos with him please! This series has been deeply fascinating.

[@TobyKBTY]

I had my first trip to BKK earlier this year, and it was food heaven. Super happy I got to come here and to Jay Fai among many other prominent and decorated food stops, and these videos are making me crave all over again lol. Lucas does a great job of not only explaining the food, but also loving and deeply appreciating every step.

[@GiveMeLemons]

Besides the fact that Lucas' food commentary and knowledge is on another level, I love how deeply he respects the chef and his craft of a deceptively simple dish.

[@infin1ty850]

I absolutely love the way they do crispy eggs in Thailand

[@Mizomei]

Videos with Lucas have been some of the best videos I have seen in years, well explained videos with his passion is very hard to beat.

[@gxbalcantara]

I've never clicked on a video faster, especially whenever I see Chef Lucas Sin's name.

[@supertimmyh4224]

Lucas can turn anything sounds delicious.

[@monicaariesta7531]

Can't believe I've found a way back to watching BA videos this is amazing..

[@byebyeblue]

Didn't expect to see Bon Appétit's vid in my country. And yes I highly recommend "Nai Mong Hoi Thod" is one of the best oyster omelet in Thailand if you have a chance to go to Bangkok don't miss this!

[@narudh]

definitely my favorite oyster omelet. a clear level above the rest. legendary.

[@Ilikeitlikethis]

I like the explanation of the science behind the cooking technique. Interesing to hear about the two types of styles of oyster omelette - always thought the crispy style was the only one.

[@bobbymoss6160]

Lucas needs his own YT channel.

[@junipero1798]

Love Lucas and his passion for textual delights

[@tersamba9706]

Such an awesome video. I really appreciate how Lucas explores the technique, complexity, and beauty of the dish with genuine respect and a complete lack of pretentiousness. It feels like grabbing dinner with a friend at one of his favorite spots.

[@jadett6282]

This guy needs his own dedicated show.

[@icy2527]

As a Thai, I like soft version, It's so smooth that you feel like you're drinking oyster!

[@wnose]

Choice of Lucas was divinely inspired, Bon Apetit!!

[@karenmallinson7278]

I could listen to you all day, chef Lucas!

[@jakugarcia]

The guy is so enthusiast making this video even more interesting. He can talk about deep frying a french fries and it’ll be interesting nonetheless 😅✌️

[@MattJelonek]

I’ve never heard or seen someone describe the ingredients in such a manner, on how it’s cooked and in which way. This Chef, is fantastic.

[@JohnnyQuach]

Lucas is my spirit animal

[@Tiaimo]

I'm 3rd gen Teochew in Thailand. This menu has special place in my mind. Really love this menu since I was young.

[@GiangHPham]

Lucas is the only person with that fit on and no one will question him. Legend.

the way that Lucas doing a food review more like a f1 commentary, “look at that”

Lucas. You are making an amazing series. I love the pace, the quality of the descriptions/tastings/personal views and historical/side information. Thanks for making this.

[@Randomthingsforyuo]

When I see Lucas in the video I click automatically, only person I would actually click so fast for

[@songsabai3794]

Excellent running commentary, grips the attention and taunts the taste buds! Bravo!!

[@pkmtg94]

That red-orange sauce is actually the real "Sriracha sauce" or Thai's chilli sauce similar to it, not like the one selling in the west.

[@martinfalk4093]

Lucas doing so well again

[@dazuotv]

Bangkok's street omelet looks delicious, I want to try it 👍

[@whathaff]

Hey Lucas, go here - 158, Lebuh Carnarvon, George Town, 10450 George Town, Pulau Pinang, Malaysia. You get this too with slightly Malaysian Chinese twist to it.

[@xausmt]

I’m Thai and I’m so sure that Lucas know exactly about this dish.

[@johnphoon6436]

I'm feeling hungry just watching this n the host's commentary is details n wonderfully done....❤,🙏👍

[@SwanSow]

There are plenty of street food vendors around South East Asia that cook with two wok spatulas - I've seen this technique used with multiple dishes - Oyster Eggs (prevalent also in Malaysia and Singapore). Fried Koay Teow and Fried Radish cake.

[@-SarahElizabeth-]

I’ve never seen videos with Lucas- but more please!

[@schreiberinjen]

Like one commenter said, I saw Lucas and I just clicked. Love this guy! ❤ ich bin ein Fan!

[@bringbkwindos95]

Lucas can talk about paint drying and I'll watch it

[@MFDOOOOM]

That outfit is hilarious lmao

[@cyin2000]

Yumm... Such a delight to watch you explain why it's so delicious. This spot is my next go to for vacation

[@MorganStankly]

You can see the chef adding a dash of msg/salt to the oysters at 4:28. So yeah Lucas the dish isn't just seasoned with oyster sauce!

[@REMY.C.]

"perfectly inconsistent", that's the best synonym of randomly cooked.

[@gravegorilla]

I love the rabid following Lucas gets in the comments. I see Lucas, I click. I hope he never loses his passion for cooking and learning.

[@worldwidewashington]

The most delightful, knowledgeable, passionate and eloquent chef ever. You're so precious to me my king thank you for another video!!

[@mellowheart]

Dude, my mouth is literally watering. I want that so bad 😢

[@garys.3677]

I like how the owner still kept the homely vibe instead of going all fancy even if the shop got Michelin recognition.

[@johnnychang4233]

Simplicity and consistence are the best seasoning of any successful recipe 😉

[@SimplyK888]

Bangkok is truly a sanctuary for food lovers 🤤 I love Singapore's oyster omelette too 😋

[@kennethwu115]

One of my favourites. Always get this in Penang, Malaysia ❤❤❤

[@thesneakersafe]

Lucas should have his own show

[@lovenote1047]

Agreed. We were lucky to have them come and cook at our wedding. Went to the restaurant after the wedding and they gave us a free meal because they said that you did not have a chance to eat our food at the wedding.

[@heythave]

I agree. Slightly cooked oysters are super yummy if you’ve ever tasted The French Laundry’s “Oyster and Pearls”.

[@CarlGorn]

The equipment would make such a huge difference here. He's got a wok burner flaming a cast iron plancha, which would typically be used for paella. Can't rock like that in an apartment kitchen.

[@kacymah93]

Huge fan of this dish, especially the crispy version!!

[@picanha694]

you should try medan or penang oyster omelette. they deserve the michelin too

[@JacksOLantern]

Lucas is the best

[@Jazzgirlaust]

Oh my goodness both dishes look so delicious & I don't even eat oysters... I think I'd make an exception for those dishes.

[@whataderk]

I just want someone to love me as much as Lucas loves food! 😂

[@atlfun08]

The crispy omelette is like getting a hush puppy but its egg so its less carbs. Brillant.

[@WilliamLai2024]

Give this guy 10 shows please.

[@mellownessuperstar2618]

I would want a little hot sauce on mine but goodness... That looks delicious 🤤

[@ishiiowada3884]

This shop is very popular. The fried oyster is really delicious.

[@ryokudoom]

With a bowl of rice, the deliciousness will go over the top

[@olegyamleq7796]

amazingggggggggg, thanks!!!!!!!!! it's on my list!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@Arafai]

Mate you are a food geek in the best way possible

[@albertko1]

Lucas needs to go to Taiwan to eat oyster omelet (Ningxia night market)... just because MIchelin didn't rate it doesn't mean something can't be better.

[@zhenlim5402]

This guy always cracks me up lmao
