The Sandwich Show: Max's Korean Sarnie

As a lover of the sandwich and curious chef, sandwich shop owner Max Halley is travelling Britain to find inspiration for a new sarnie to put on his menu. In the first episode of The Sandwich Show, we visit New Malden, home to London's largest Korean expat community and a place where Max hopes he can finally learn how to make kimchi.

Screw the comments, this show is awesome. A crazy Brit who's interested in learning about different cuisines to get inspiration for his own menu. Looking forward to seeing more

[@WarringScholar]

ikr great video but then you scrolls down to find the most cancerous comment section

[@SuaavaChina]

Viktor Cheng ok

[@DonCurrywurst]

THANK YOU.

[@danfreemann]

i love this guy i keep checking back for another episode but there hasnt been one yet

[@quickJARLY]

when he said "wagwan sandwichshop", I was sold

[@AP-nh8tp]

That British-Korean girl was gorgeous

[@itsraorama]

Everyday B I agree.

[@londerg1307]

Everyday B shes austrailian

[@AP-nh8tp]

Londer G how did you come to that conclusion? Because her accent is definitely English my man

[@johnshears5160]

british not australian accent

[@MrDarillion]

No she's a British Korean. 영국교포. All those American Koreans who think we still see them as Korean are wrong. This girl isn't "Korean" she's British Korean.

[@SidewaysInTraffic]

The people saying he butchered the dish are probably the same one's that had Taco Bell for dinner like "I love Mexican food".

[@AaronBGaming]

people are insufferable and complain just because they want to, its a fuckin sandwitch ofc its not gonna be some divine visually appealing marvel

[@FoamBananaz]

Fuckin hilarious, can't wait for more.

[@shutupack5389]

yeah

[@TheNLHunting]

This guy is a mad scientist!

[@PLxFTW]

In these comments: people triggered by some English dude wanting to make a Korean inspired sandwich.

[@shasta_creates]

Seriously. Muh cultural appropriation in the form of a sandwich. If you're not Italian, you can't eat spaghetti, if you aren't Japanese, you can't eat sushi. What absolute cancer this thought process is. Instead of sharing and celebrating our cultures, let's close things off and let our prejudices fester.

[@katdointhat]

I absolutely love this episode. The guy's open minded, has fun with his cooking, and willing to better understand a culture's foods and take it all the way with experimenting in the kitchen. He's like a mad scientist. This episode was a treat.

[@cowsmuggler1646]

They just put a lot of MSG into everything. They cheat.

[@Funeralapolis]

The comments are so salty. It's a fucking sandwich guys

[@Thebosca1]

all these flavours, and they choose to be salty

[@BobcatSchneidermann]

"I love chucking shit in the fryer" is a sentence that resonates with me on a whole new level

[@dpreetam]

I would have thought the Korean Fried Chicken would have been the obvious choice for a sandwich.

[@robind6300]

I thought the same!! And put some garlicy daikon kim chi on it. YES!!! It would need a bit of sweet sauce to balance it out. Maybe chogochujang? lol. I can't think of anything else sweet. It seems like it would need one more thing, but not sure what.

[@alexrsmith31]

But maybe thats the thing, its sooo obvious

[@VictoryStudios2012]

im asian. I have no issues with this man trying to learn another cultures dishes and fuse with his own.

[@IDiggPattyMayonnaise]

Victory .Studios I also dont see any issue. Its not like Bon Appetit having a white guy tell Asian people they were eating their own food wrong

[@mukiwabanda2794]

Well considering these Koreans in the video are all immigrants to HIS country I fail to see why he needs their communities approval to buy from their shops and cook their cuisine.

[@cmvia8k]

FINALLY THEY LISTENED TO THE PEOPLE AND MADE THIS SHOW NOW IM HYPED AF

[@jairexplores8718]

“Check me out …. Completely rejected” 🤣🤣

[@terproov]

Yes this guy deserves his own show

[@jkfdkjjd]

and terminal illness... Perhaps that could be the show!?

[@UKNOWHATAMIN]

YEAH!!!! IVE BEEN WAITING SO LONG FOR A NEW VIDEO FROM HIM!

[@GoodSizeAndAll]

Hell yes, I love this guy! I was hoping you would bring him back!

[@mikedang3613]

Sometimes, I pull on it so hard, I rip the skin.

[@commandershepard4471]

Continue. This. Series. Please.

[@jeremyking6668]

more episodes with this man please. He's actually funny with out having TO YELL ALL THE TIME, OKAYYY?

[@todiepkhanh4509]

"What can we deep fry" - he speaks my language.

[@ryusm92]

I'm a Korean, and I love what I'm seeing. I think Korean food changes the least compared to Chinese or Japanese when it ventures out overseas, and Koreans almost always refuse to "water it down" to cater for a Western taste. While that's great for presenting Korean food as authentic as one can do, the whole spirit of sharing a meal is at its best when two cultures come together and combine the best of each other's world. There are lots of Mexican-Korean fusion cuisines in America, and they are fantastic. I think Max has done a tremendous job with the sandwich, and would love to give it a try one day.

[@iHeadmind]

More of him! (and her!)

[@seaweed8rain]

iHeadmind and her especially

[@TriangularTurdz]

Please don't be discouraged, I have had your ham egg and chips and anyone with some sense knows you are being entirely respectful to other cultures and kindly adopting their flavours to make gold

[@alexoh4699]

Absolute legend. This is from an actual Korean and not some keyboard warrior.

[@0mnicide]

Oh, really? Sorry I had to, mate.

[@tiffanylin2194]

Really excited for this series and love Max's energy.

[@grontelp77]

Did anyone else notice that this sandwich is, for all practical purposes, the same recipe for his ham egg and chips sandwich he created on his first vice video? Braised protein + pickled vegetable + fried carb for texture. Rinse and repeat.

[@RayfilWong]

Food is the fastest and most respectful way to learn about another culture

[@bomes269]

Give us more of him, likeable character. Best on the Munchies channel

[@BluRibbonReviews]

yes max is back! Now give him a chefs night out please!!

[@jeppyli5832]

Max needs his own show full time!

[@Kuya_Ryan_Kaliwaters]

The host is freaking hilarious, already a fan 👌🏻. Can't wait for the next episode 😬

[@PanAm91-u3f]

I see that Sean Penn is immersing himself in the food industry for his next role.

[@trickyname]

There's always so much hate for Munchies shows. Mostly its good content, but please remember: Its free content ffs. Show some respect.

[@ejfhill]

Max's childlike wonder and joy at creating a new sandwich is infectious.

[@lukechung5020]

This guy is such a fucking genius. I'm Korean and he fucking NAILED it. Just how can you recreate something after just a day?!!!!!!

[@LittleFilip]

HAHAH @8:30 that was pure filming/documentary GOLD! I laughed out loud

[@901D]

I am typical korean Many korean try to make kimchi sandwitch But they don't use row kimchi, they tease with spring onion that makes more better one

[@voxus98]

Fucken love max "wagwan, sandwich shop" is one of the funniest things I've heard in a while.

[@staindman00]

I LOVED THIS! DO MORE! already my favourite show on Munchies!!!

[@MEGAWILL862]

[@WildThyme69]

Max is awesome, the restaurant owner is awesome and very gracious. Looking forward to more!

[@CrimsonEsso]

Goddamn that girl is perfect. Wow.

[@johnshears5160]

right?!

[@HeadbangMushroom]

why are y'all being so racist towards white people in the comments? He did a good job, pretty fun to watch.

[@ArielScync]

Because it's 'hip and cool' to be racist against white people, man. Fuck other types of racism, tho. /s

[@HeadbangMushroom]

smh

[@HeadbangMushroom]

Looks like they enjoied the sandwich if you ask me.high horse

[@MrDarillion]

The 교포 seemed to enjoy it as well.

[@lilpinche918]

I bet you're really fun at parties.

[@danielfennessey]

Yup, there's crunch in that sandwich. Nice work max, Great vid, munchies. Thanks.

[@gijsyo]

Max is such a cool dude. Wish there was more of him on YT.

[@ARandomAccountForMe]

Love this! Was so excited when I watched it and I love Max!!!

[@GeorgioTheChef]

THANK FUCKING GOD THEY GAVE THIS GUY A SHOW. looks like vice actually reads youtube comments

[@Chillzone420]

this guy is hilarious. my new favourite on munchies. more of that guy!

[@alienszez]

This guy is so cool.

[@Kebab_with_extra_garlic_mayo]

Though i don't like him, don't get the racism against him, he's doing his interpretation and fusion of korean food, no need to be racists.

[@cavedavesmash]

I am so glad that Max got another video. I WANT MORE

[@aidenbatista5986]

"Woah something amazing has happened!" "Shit the bed!"

[@taraboyd9314]

Id love to see a chef show with max making different types of sandwiches.

[@hyoriethejindo]

I'm Korean. This is fuckin disaster......

[@mikedispenzavideo]

caracoles motown hahaha I'm not eating that

[@mariochi1499]

No one gives a fuck that you're korean

[@won1853]

ikr. Why would you put kimchi and ssamjang into a freaking sandwich? That sounds disgusting

[@rohan1_]

Way to make your opinion look like trash by covering it in vitriolic, ad hominem attacks. You just make yourself look unreasonable

[@antoinedoinell]

I think Kimchi could work on a sando but...not by this guy as of yet. Hope he revises it and shares.

[@Chatetris]

Oh yeah! I love this guy!

[@shuntaroshirota2381]

More Max Halley! He's so entertaining!

[@dwb4505]

this was so good

[@Im49th]

I've been thinking about this place all the time since the last time Max was on Munchies. I still need to come by one day but it's just enough out of my way where I would need to make a trip specifically to eat here.

[@daanvanalphen2696]

fucking love this! looking forward to the next episode!

[@tuhpatomaced]

Yes! Glad this guy is back!

[@ofcheetospepsi5757]

[@rosa.gigantor]

[@kwangkim3108]

Pure gold the reaction at 8:30

[@voodoochild3859]

I’m feeling this sandwich series

[@meowmixmeowmix]

I'm Korean, I hate Korean food, but I'd eat anything this guy makes. I bought his book, its excellent! He already has a Korean-ish recipe in there.

[@bellystraw]

I need more of this guy. MORE I SAY!

[@wedraweverting]

Glad this guy has a show! Funny dude.

[@GoMessJ]

[@joaopauloadamerodrigues7432]

[@T8LG]

The way he speaks and the words he uses just make me laugh so much my stomach hurts

[@deanmclean5447]

I love this show! I really hope that it continues!

[@Rafayak]

I can feel this show will be great!

[@oldschoolm8]

I have to go to this place when I'm next in London. I've made the greatest sandwiches in existence, to my palate, when really pissed. If someone can do a far superior job and serve me a beer at the same time...I may just be in love.

[@jondrew2937]

that's cool, I work for a vegetarian restaurant in boston and we do the noodle in the fryer thing with rice noodles, it's 🔥

[@mikedang3613]

"SHIT THE BED" This guy is fucking amazing.

[@JonLambert1]

Really really like this guy - more please

[@aaaaaaaaaa97]

Looks like something perfect for the context of his sandwich shop. Looks like he had a lot of fun making it and it's definately a delicous sandwich. Unless kimchi isn't your thing, if so I lament for you.

[@D0rschbert]

NICE! I Love this guy.

[@chickenpotthighs9387]

I love this focaccia freak and I want more of him

[@ascendancy425]
