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

[@RaoRama]

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.

[@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.

[@FoamBananaz]

Fuckin hilarious, can't wait for more.

[@shutupack5389]

yeah

[@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

[@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.

[@Funeralapolis]

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

[@Thebosca1]

all these flavours, and they choose to be salty

[@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

[@commandershepard4471]

Continue. This. Series. Please.

[@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.

[@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.

[@BobcatSchneidermann]

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

[@iHeadmind]

More of him! (and her!)

[@seaweed8rain]

iHeadmind and her especially

[@terproov]

Yes this guy deserves his own show

[@jkfdkjjd]

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

[@todiepkhanh4509]

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

[@chickenpotthighs9387]

I love this focaccia freak and I want more of him

[@ascendancy425]

Sourdough can go fuck itself ;)

[@cmvia8k]

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

[@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.

[@staindman00]

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

[@ARandomAccountForMe]

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

[@jairexplores8718]

“Check me out …. Completely rejected” 🤣🤣

[@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.

[@cdog310yofashoww]

This show needs to continue! Max is so entertaining and his food looks great!

[@WildThyme69]

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

[@UKNOWHATAMIN]

[@BirchWeber]

[@deanmclean5447]

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

[@rosa.gigantor]

i thoroughly enjoyed this! i love korean food and love sandwiches and so it would have be hard to miss me on this one but max is so much fun and I think the end result sounds like a really great sandwich as well

[@bomes269]

[@0mnicide]

[@dwb4505]

[@pmashankar]

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

[@1996naim]

[@ejfhill]

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

[@shuntaroshirota2381]

More Max Halley! He's so entertaining!

[@tuhpatomaced]

Yes! Glad this guy is back!

[@whitesonar]

Can't wait for more of these.

[@Rafayak]

[@MEGAWILL862]

I am so so happy max is doing a program with munchies! ever since his ham chip and egg sandwich video, I've been cravinggggg max pissing about in his shop! great bloke

[@LittleFilip]

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

[@xjoexedge]

This was awesome. Need more

[@Chatetris]

Oh yeah! I love this guy!

[@ofcheetospepsi5757]

YES! Max is back!!!!!!

[@freddiefaulks4575]

love this dude just want longer eps

[@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

[@MrLastGuide]

FINALY MORE MAX THANK YOU MUNCHIES!!!

[@D0rschbert]

NICE! I Love this guy.

[@aiyanateodoralogronioreid432]

This guys hilarious, I want to see more of him

[@gijsyo]

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

[@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.

[@danielfennessey]

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

[@KKAAzeh]

need so much more of those..

[@bradt7086]

Great host and show concept. More please.

[@bellystraw]

I need more of this guy. MORE I SAY!

[@iamjbpeel]

Give me more episodes of this guy. He told me on twitter that there were more episodes coming, lets goooooo

[@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.

[@DrMisiakk]

This guy's awesome!

[@JonLambert1]

Really really like this guy - more please

[@hoodieinfestation]

The noodles in the fryer bit was great!

[@iAseel95]

Really love the show

[@trickyname]

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

[@kwangkim3108]

OMG THIS GUY IS HILARIOUS! I suggest this guy to guest in Korean cooking shows!

[@wedraweverting]

Glad this guy has a show! Funny dude.

[@TjamesB]

quite liked this. more please

[@jamesburke5767]

Will there be a new episode of this anytime soon?

[@kennethmelrose118]

[@landonvanbus]

[@wissamosseyli6801]

[@901D]
