Grandma's Massaman Curry in Ayutthaya | Food Travel Vlog 4

[@Paul.in.Ireland]

Mark you are truly a star and a natural in front of the camera! Things for you will only get bigger and you will be in demand to work all over the world from different television and production companies! The way and relaxed style of your presenting and how you explain and keep it simple for your views is a natural talent and I congratulate you and wish you every success both now and with every opportunity that comes your way in the future.

[@MarkWiens]

Hey Ryan Darcy, thank you very much for your kind words, really encouraging for me.

[@popsong2009]

[@laurahoney9988]

[@MarkWiens]

New Vlog... making #Thai massaman curry with Grandma in #Ayutthaya #Thailand #ThaiFood

[@DmytroKovalenko]

Mark Wiens you said one thing I absolutely agree - I would like to live there. Great video.

[@SuiGenerisAbbie]

Wow, you surely get up early over there! But, you are young so you are also likely resilient, too. I love massaman curry, Mark. I love all Thai curries, in fact. Jungle is interesting, though -- quite hot!

[@SuiGenerisAbbie]

Mark, you eat a lot. Nothing wrong with that, but, I'm wondering how you stay so very thin, too, please.

[@johnathantaylor5880]

Congrats to 100,000 subs, you deserve it

[@skyoflove9]

Yummy

[@mark91345]

Not only do I enjoy seeing the good food, but I so much enjoy seeing the culture, including "grandma", sitting in a crouched position to cook, the sink outside going to the river, people cutting the chicken's fingernails off (I never really knew they had them-- oy!). It's all the little things that give a mosaic of what seems like such a different world, a good one, but so different than what I know. Yet, "food, folks, and fun" transcends it all. Wonderful video!

[@vasunthara9980]

By far, this is my favourite episode. Grandmas make the best food! That Massaman curry looked unbelievably delicious. Lucky you!

[@ayamyu2768]

I really dislike that people are doing cooking home less and less, depending on frozen dishes, fast food chains, etc.... Nothing like homemade food! It's so wholesome, healthy, delicious, family & friends bonding, it's what makes us human. Thank you Mark! This reminded me of my family back home and brought tears to my eyes. Enjoy those precious moments.

[@psychegirl1985]

i missed my grandma because of this. she used to cook a lot when she was alive. they say mom's cooking is the best, but actually grandma's that's the best

[@MsKestrela]

It was delicious watching you fall in love with the place and the people. You have the most amazing experiences wherever you go. I'm sure it's at least in part, because of your humility and childlike wonder, and the sheer joy you take in meeting new friends. You are an inspiration. Thank you for sharing yourself and your travels.

[@Obelixlxxvi]

Hmmm...Ayutthaya (the name sounds so similar to the ancient city of Ayodhya in Uttar Pradesh, India). Thailand has so much influence from ancient India...Its like a mini India combined with the Chinese influence. The love for curries, spices and all things sour and super spicy and the biggest being the social structure and religions. Mark's you got the hallmarks of all things an Indian would symbolise with. Your love for the curry 24 x 7....hats off. Even when you wake you you need a curry...wow! Even though there are many things lacking for a good food+ travel show...still your honesty and simplicity are more than enough to make up for all those things. The look on grandma's face.. just brought tears to my eyes, as I couldn't help remember my late grandma. Super sweet video and a big thumbs up 👍🏼

[@adriennekurtz]

You are so loved! Thanks for posting this. Really pleasing to watch!

[@sandranokes7443]

You are so lucky to have these women in your life. So much history in these women's hands. Grandma is amazing. Your Mother In Law not only cooks great food, but she has grace, serenity that you can see in her face, her beautiful face. Thank you again, for sharing your families traditions and life. Amazing.

[@tobynmanthorpe]

I smiled from ear to ear for this whole video. Great job Mark!

[@MarkWiens]

[@SweetButterTH]

เป็นฝรั่งที่ทำคลิปแล้ว เวลาดูมีความสุขทุกทีเลยครับ ทำคลิปมาอีกเยอะๆนะครับ สู้ๆ

[@MrGahan1234]

Mark, your reactions every time you put food in your mouth are priceless!! * puts food in mouth * chews * closes eyes * tilts head to right * smiles * goes 'mmmmm' Keep it up! Hilarious!

[@acajudi100]

His eyes just light up even more. once he had a bad meal, and i could tell by his expression, before he sadly had to say, it was not good.

[@commentexpert4486]

Seth Rogan grate observation lol

[@amrasaunders3981]

Seth Rogan ้

[@onduty9761]

Seth Rogan, I guess you had never have any chance to test that great thai food especially, thai homemade cooking with surrounding by real Thai culture . I can see his impression.

[@bobbot2881]

You think he might be overdoing it? Could you imagine having /thanksgiving Dinner with this guy?

[@crystalwynn3910]

I love it when you have local guest cooks in your videos showing us how to make dishes.I also have great respect for you for the fact that you learned to speak Thai that well.

[@dilloncochran2144]

You can just tell the grandma is such a educated person when it comes to cooking, you can just tell! Great video mark

[@tosht2515]

Just back from Europe and catching up on your videos. Terrific as usual Mark.

[@123456vectra]

I'm half Dutch and half Thai but i've only been to Thailand when i was really young soo it's really nice to see how they live there and what Thailand looks like. Thanks Mark!

[@jmchan7982]

[@evogardens]

Hey Guy's, I can't find the superlatives to describe how much I enjoyed this vlog. I just love it! The beautiful scenery, the warmth and hospitality shown by the people, and the way Mark always shows his respect and genuine love of Thai culture. Great stuff! Jim.

[@theomaloney3286]

That was a beautiful video and I was smiling the entire time! Thanks for sharing, Mark!!

[@hewkoj]

Thankyou for treating us to your home, your recipes, and your beautiful grandma

[@jbuzzy]

Another great video Mark. It occurs to me just how lucky you are to meet such kind people and to have these experiences. I'm sure very few farangs will ever have these types of thai experiences. The food looked delicious but the wonderful people you met is what really shines in this video. Thank you and your wife for all your hard work.

[@jeffsimp1149]

Seeing a new vlog is like Christmas morning. Keep them coming. Wonderful production and experiences!

[@holaramirez]

My grandmother had a sink like that when I was a child. I remember watching all the chickens pecking at the water for bits a pieces of food dropped through the sink down to the ground. it was so relaxing.

[@samirabouzidi4411]

Mark you look exactly like your grandma.... she's so cute ...god bless you both ...thanks for your wonderful work😍😍

[@alexyanci7974]

Hey man, looks amazing, and it is extremely nice to see genuine kindness and love. Very glad to see you growing in life through the vlogs.

[@kulpun7218]

All the others foodie youtubers goes to only fascinated place or popular place so that they can get easy view or likes from the viewer but Mark Wien you are different. Every time when i watch your video most of the times you goes to remote place or place which was unknown by the outsider of that place & explore in such a way that we can connect with them deeply and easily. Love you Mark and keep it on what you are doing and respect your hard work & dedication toward the work you doing. And ever time you takes your wife and son with you which shows how much you love your family and take care of them. Coz i can see lots of youtuber who didn’t get time to spend with family. it doesn’t mean they don’t love or care family.. but there way of working is different than Mark... Mark spend lots of time with his family and his wife also helping him on his work some how and his wife get chance to explore lots of place with Husband. Love the way you work Mark. Its a lesson to lots of New KZbinr who is just starting there channel...

[@valiantmar]

What a beautiful experience you've shared with us!!!! The food, the people and the love of eating!!!!

[@ozdoits]

Yes, I sincerely hope we'll have the good fortune to see, and to learn from, more elders as you continue Mark!

[@theskyquakewarrior]

What a beautiful home and kind family. Love grandma!

[@TabbyAngel2]

Grandma was soooooooo cute!! Thanks Mark for another great video! God bless you x

[@TheBlondeyBoy]

Massaman is my all time favourite and always will be! We serve it in the restaurant I work in and it's always my top reccomendation and is always a winner ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@numbersguy9419]

Loved seeing the family and hearing them interact while eating. No idea what was said, but I could feel it was a good scene. Lucky you.

[@ophiuchusoversoul1785]

So cool that your doing actual tv shows, I didnt realize that! Love how respectful and genuine you are with the host and her family, your spirit is so sweet and appreciative. Thank you for sharing who you are and what you enjoy doing Mark Weins. know you will never read this, but if you ever did you would find out that one of your avid viewers as watched dozens upon dozens of your videos because she has cancer and watching them has helped her find her ability to eat again. I am currently only 96.6 lbs (normally 130) but Im eating again and its very often while Im watching one of your episodes because something your eating looks so good I go make myself something that has at least some of the same flavor profiles (sweet, salty, sour, spicy, pungent, etc) I even recently found an asian produce store in the city where my Dr appts are and have been there shopping twice! I bought a whole tilapia that I brought home and grilled using asian spices (lemon , cilantro, chilis, salt, white pepper, and ginger) and pan seared prawns again with those spices. It was so delicious, I cant wait to try more!

[@hj.abdulrahimramli4066]

The Massaman curry looked unbelievably delicious. Thank you Mark and Ying for the lovely Vlog...♡♥ Keep smiling... It is a wonder drug and wish you all the best. 🌷☺

[@anitablakeway429]

Znothing ever beats mums cooking!♥️

[@Ralphie_Boy]

[@Eastengland]

I just wanna go to that village for a couple of weeks to relax and eat great food. Thanks for makes us feel the experience with you.

[@FabianChia]

Thanks for showing such a homely side of Thailand!

[@o0playalistic0o]

Once again, a truly awesome video! I used to be a camera man and follow our host as he does reviews on the food at different restaurant and we also get to try all the dishes. It was fun while it lasted.

[@in2him1]

What an absolutely fantastic video! Thank you for introducing me to things that I would love to experience first hand one day! Thank you for the respect that you have for everyone you encounter! Thank you for showcasing the mouthwatering dishes so beautifully! You and your family inspire me greatly! You are the real deal Mark Wiens! Applauding you from Ireland!!

[@simplicity63]

Another great video. I hope the tv show airs worldwide. Thank you.

[@ncnorthbound]

[@ttasd1]

[@sylvainesgp6451]

Hello i'm from Philippines and i leave here in Paris! I love so much to wacth all your video's specialy this one it's very relaxing. Have a Blessed day all of you and your family!

[@MsKestrela]

A Thai friend gifted me some Massaman beef curry today. I had watched this video before, so I was really looking forward to tasting it. I have to admit, I did the 'Wiens Lean' at the first bite! So different from anything I ever associated with curry, but SO good!

[@michaeldeng1981]

Your grandma is very nice and elegant. Thank you.

[@TCasey]

Mark, hello from Coral Springs, Florida. I once learned of the deliciousness of Massaman Curry from our local Thai restaurant Thai Garden. The owner Duke recommended the dish to me and told me that his mother who was the cook there cooked the best Massaman Stew. I tried it and It was so delicious. He also gave me some Plum wine on the house to enjoy to it. I sure do miss that place. No one else did a greater Massaman Curry than Duke's Mom.

[@legambaz]

Other then another exciting episode, I like it how you unselfishly share with us your blog production process. It kind of bring me closer to your real expedition. Great stuff here Mark.

[@mramandeeps1]

[@mcmdrpiffle447]

Stuff like this is why I've been subscribed, and liked for several years. I can always pick up information from older things. Especially this one !

[@superslyfoxx1]

Loved the style of this video.Made me feel like I actually traveled.

[@DanielaDel1986]

What a beautiful video Mark I couldn't stop thinking of what a wonderful experience it would be to go eat at someone's house somewhere in Thailand it truly would be one of the best meals for sure:) I'm so happy for your success but please don't ever stop making KZbin vlogs you are my favorite person to watch

[@PhilthyMr]

Another great experience mark. I felt like I was experiencing it there too. Very cool to see the making of your show. Excellent !!

[@lewischan9959]

Great show!Mark... awesome... can feel tat the friendliness and kindness of grandma n mom khon Thai... something that we cant find in a city these days... missed the village days.... well done again Mark!... Hope to watch the series on air or in youtube soon!

[@kyleoakley6767]

Thanks for introducing the street foods as well as various interesting traveling destinations. May you always be safe and well on your journey.

[@cteng1984]

Great videos, I am so jealous of you eating all this great food and mingling with the locals. When I first went to Thailand 7 years ago, the hospitality of the people there was very touching, I had made friends with some local people and they took me to places where there were no farang for miles and experienced things that you wouldn't being an expat or tourist. You're doing what I wish I could do with my live, traveling and filming in detail why you should travel and experiencing things that you can't in any western country.

[@bebebutterfield1]

It looks wonderful Mark and TY for sharing.

[@chalexsaychow5444]

Mark, I use to live in Chiang Mai and every time I watch your videos it makes me miss it so much. Now I'm back in California where I'm originally from and want to go back and visit. My mom just went back about a year ago and we may go and visit her if we can take time off. Who knows, we may run into you on the streets of the night bizarre grubbing at the food courts :) keep the videos coming, they're great. I will definitely click the Like button! Alex

[@rebeccagilman2020]

Awesome! Love seeing the family, especially Gramma

[@RangKlos]

Can't stop smiling watching this one!

[@BluW13]

This is the real Thai living from way back. I miss that so much.

[@barbaramcrae2342]

Nice to be learning family recipes from your grandma, love love to watch video logs, from BC Canada

[@alimansouri3849]

It is just amazing how much passion you have for travel and food. Massaman Curry is in my opinion the best Thai dish ever. Thanks for these videos Mark, it reminds me of the time I studied in Thailand. Greetings from Germany ;)

[@fuzzygreen3634]

these are some really high quality vlogs ... great shots of the scenery, food, etc ... really enjoying these

[@pamelaoncale]

That looked so yummy and you are so right, nothing beats grandma and momma's home cooking! I hope we get to see you explore our amazing food here in Southeastern Louisiana (New Orleans and Baton Rouge).

[@olyomune556]

Thank you for sharing. Making me so homesick for Thailand!

[@TwinJalanugraha]

Love all your videos, especially this one!!! Would love to see more of the longer ones like this. It's like being there!!!!!!!!

[@adrienfrew7579]

Nice video, Mark. My mum is from this town and grew up on the river however I have never seen exactly where. You've painted a picture in my mind thanks.

[@FARANGtasticFilms]

We'll make sure to visit Ayutthaya when we get to Thailand in January! Keep up the awesome videos Mark!

[@arimax888]

Your channel is very much appreciated..I love your humble attitude and openness and I wish you all the best :)
