Traveling to Korea to Eat Tacos, Bagels, and Pizza

[@cygnia]

"Steven, that was my taco..." Sadder words have never been spoken.

[@FlavorofMind]

Heartbreaking... haha

[@Melza01]

I hope he got his taco.

[@cursedepub]

i honestly really like seeing how foods from other cultures get translated locally especially here in asia. this was a cool episode idea.

[@LPdedicated]

I love this format, even if I had to get used to from the Worth It style. It's just good vibes all around and Andrew has a way of describing food and food culture that is very insightful. :)

[@lillianlouie4284]

I agree about Andrew’s fresh perspective on familiar dishes such as spaghetti and meatballs - and that the pepperoni pasta 🍝 is more functional to eat!

[@thatgirl9532]

This actually reminds me of the last season of Worth It where Andrew took over the show as Steven had already left buzzfeed… they presented worth it in a similar way to this show… and on a smaller budget compared to their earlier worth it series!

[@CameraManBlaise]

I hate it. and if you look at the view numbers for video compared to subs so do many others.

[@wyrdweary]

This show feels like a love letter to Anthony Bourdain in the most genuine way 💜 even just from an editing standpoint. It's really nice to see.

[@michaelbagasan2629]

I think this format should be how it goes every episode, it’s much more refreshing than the worth it style as before

[@AmandolinJay]

​@@michaelbagasan2629 Agreed! I found it really refreshing and appreciate it being on YT

[@danielsimmons4248]

That’s so true

[@mortua_conjuga]

salad cream is something specific not just dressing in general. it's actually a cream. we also call salad dressing dressing in merry ole england.

[@giyuwu1270]

I love Andrew and Adam so much, cheering yall on and enjoying the shows along the way 🥰

[@BCS_7-u4p]

thats the only two person i love and i am sure others too. No pun intended, just truth. I wish both of them just start their own production without anyone else. They'd make a good team.

[@_bane01]

“how often do i get to have a genuinely new bagel experience?” is such an amazing way to interpret these international translations of our everyday western meals. we could easily react with disgust or fear of a new perspective. instead, this quote i will carry with me.

[@juhimarzia8112]

This was such a cool episode, I love the fact that they explored food that they've all had before in a local context. It's such a fun twist to watch!

[@deathbysp0rk]

This was a brilliant idea for a video. I love seeing fusion/homage foods. I remember reading years ago about Japanese immigrants in Brazil and how they continued making their cultural dishes, but they incorporated the available local ingredients to replace those they didn’t have access to in South America. I’d love to see some videos on culinary histories like this in North America too, particularly for black American cultures like Gullah Geechee.

[@k0natus]

Salad Cream is a condiment made by Heinz, we don't call salad dressing "salad cream" in the UK. It's like saying all Americans call hot sauce Tabasco.

[@void.reality]

It's like saying all Americans call salad dressing "ranch".

[@therealJamieJoy]

But isn't it just mayonnaise??

[@k0natus]

@@therealJamieJoy Not really, it's got a different taste and consistency. I have to say, I haven't had it since I was a kid as I found it disgusting. I just recall it having a particular taste unlike mayo.

[@void.reality]

@@therealJamieJoy It's sweeter, more acidic and a runnier consistency than mayonnaise. Imagine mayonnaise with sugar and vinegar added. But yes, it's essentially a flavoured mayonnaise.

[@therealJamieJoy]

@@void.reality Ah, we have that in the US. It's thicker, though. It's called Miracle Whip. It's a "salad dressing" that most people use to replace mayo -- like on sandwiches and to make tuna salad.

[@linkflowers4355]

I really wanna like this show, this was a cool episode idea and I liked Andrew's narration, was really enjoying the first half of the episode but this series feels lacking compared to Worth It without the chef interviews. Also what's the point of a food show if you're not going to describe the food more than "woah" and "very good"..

[@allenhudson3766]

This is exactly what I was thinking too. For this to be such a massive, overseas production but the hosts barely talk while they're eating is odd. If there was more insight from them or an interviewee, the quality would go up significantly

[@shaunak1104]

For most part it seems like a travel show

[@spzaruba5089]

Korea is constantly reinvented, mixed, and pulled apart again. Fusion food is a way of life.

[@thatmiddleagedlady3859]

My son and I were avid fans of Worth It and were so disappointed when it ended. So to surprisingly come across this episode, we were both super excited. It’s great to see Andrew, Stephen, and Adam back together again. We will definitely be tuning in to watch every single episode.

[@sarahkelly473]

Salad cream isn’t just any salad dressing, it’s a specific condiment 😂

[@barktoons]

Love this series! As nice as Andrew and Steven's voice overs are, I hope they bring back the chef interviews

[@FlavorofMind]

Yeah, I will admit that I miss those too - they added a special vibe to the Worth It episodes. But I can also respect that they're trying something different!

[@moneyboy13100]

ooo and bring the food facts back too!

[@thatgirl9532]

They should bring back dish granted too such a great show!

[@BCS_7-u4p]

i only love andrew would have prefer the series without steven's presence, he was so rude and vibe killing all the time. Always bossing people around like a twat and shadowing himself behind andrew.

[@jennae7903]

I'm going to Seoul for the first time in the fall so I've been loving this series & taking notes lol

[@spzaruba5089]

Get Kakao, Naver, and a credit card that doesn't charge overseas fees and charge in Won. The busses and subway are easy and necessary. Get familiar.

[@FlavorofMind]

@jennae7903 good choice to come in the Fall! Agree with the above reply, and also would strongly recommend a few food spots in particular (Tosokchon for samgyetang, Pyeongando Jokbal for pigs feet, Buchon Yukhoe for Korean beef tartare). My partner and I live here and film some food content when we can - it's hard not to run into good grub all over the city 🙂

[@TayTks]

Enjoy it so much!!! One of my favorite places in the world

[@jennae7903]

I appreciate the advice, thank you everyone :)

[@WatcherWiki]

We're going to be publishing a custom map link next Friday on our blog and tumblr for the season finale of TS that will have all the restaurants and cultural stops the boys visited in Seoul!

[@Megan-ss4iz]

Genuinely one of my new favorite watcher shows! Cozy vibes, amazing looking food, lovingly showcasing some of the unique culture of a place I’ll never see in real life ❤

[@opheliamunroe1110]

I really love the intro. It's really wholesome and personal feeling to have the Polaroids of them being out and about at the actual places they're visiting. It feels like a really well organized food vlog scrapbook combo. I also like that they have the crew feature and aren't aggressively concerned about them or the cameras being in the shot. It feels more like you're standing there with them and that's pretty neat imo ☺️

[@JustBrandan_]

never watched Worth it and it shows eh? Well you're in for a treat!

[@thatgirl9532]

@@JustBrandan_ worth it was pretty good especially like the last 2 seasons, after Steven left the chef guys at buzzfeed made a new channel “about to eat” and Andrew took over worth it & the budget wasn’t incredibly insane like at first

[@TayTks]

In before "WHAT CAMERA ARE THEY USING" comments it's a Kodak Ektar H35 you can get it for like $50 on a good day or the newest version H35N for around $70 anyway my question is WHAT FILM ARE YOU USING

[@opheliamunroe1110]

A savior has arrived

[@pinkwizards]

I need more of this show in my life!

[@nicolepercival6966]

As a Brit, got to say Adam couldn't be more wrong about us calling salad dressing "salad cream" - Salad Cream is a specific condiment made by Heinz and there's nothing else like it. Literally everything else we'd use to dress a salad, we call salad dressing 😐

[@Gotrek7]

Quick info for anyone in the US: A burger is something on a bun anywhere in the world. Chicken sandwiches do not exist.

[@zoomedcheese]

YES FUCK CHICKEN SANDWICHES!!!!! CHICKEN BURGERS ALL THE WAY!!!!

[@JABurtin]

So if you fried an egg and put it on a bun, it would be an egg burger? How about a tuna mayo burger? The "burger" part of the hamburger is named after the hamburg steak from whence it derived. The first modern hamburgers are to this day being served on regular bread. Game/Set/Match

[@mayineverlosewonder]

loved this episode. It had all the vibes

[@ShadesOfBananas]

I just found out about this channel after rewatching and reminiscing on the last episode of Worth it. I was bit watery eyes watching the last episode but then I saw a recommendation for this video and so I clicked on it and I was fill with joy and excitement to see Andrew and Steven back. This is now my favorite show. Good to see ya again working together.

[@marcothegoblin]

this has been my favorite episode of travel season so far, i love andrews narration

[@aprilvanillasunshine8408]

Andrew is so good at doing commentary and sharing good facts and descriptions when it comes to the flavors and textures they're experiencing, which I appreciate a lot! Love that yall still post these for your youtube fans ❤ Thank you, Watcher!

“Love, eat. Be freak” 😂

[@glow862]

[@watchersleuth]

same here!

[@SalamiCellar]

@GingerNut1701 not being a dick when I ask this, would you say their content is worth the paywall? Is it a constant enough stream of content to justify the monthly payment?

[@AmandolinJay]

I really appreciated how this episode was laid out and how calming it is vs the younger in your face style. Keep doing this!

[@MatthewSalzer]

This isn't that far off because eating western food in Japan is a similar experience. Japanese made burgers, hotdogs, fried chicken, doughnuts, ice cream, etc is a very different experience from eating the American counterparts. For one thing is that the portion sizes are actually edible. It's a quality versus quantity experience.

Not even a salad cream fan but I raced to the comments to defend it!! It's a salad dressing in the same way mayo could be considered a salad dressing, it's just a condiment

[@sebik-2263]

Awesome episode thank you!

[@Becausing]

What’s interesting about the bagel place is that they’re trying to be more like a *beigel* , an Austrian variant that has a local/cult following, especially around East London. I see they even have a Brick Lane bagel/beigel on the menu! PS: The yellow sign shop is better!!

You know what Americans call all soup? Ketchup. That's about as ridiculous a generalization as you made. The English do not call salad dressing, salad cream. They call salad cream, salad cream, because that is what one kind of condiment is called. It's a specific individual thing.

[@benehermann1525]

Andrew was right about pineapple on Pizza. I caught that easter egg

[@FlavorofMind]

Fun to see Korea’s take on things that are common to Americans. The bagels looked so soft and not at all chewy. The tacos looked yummy and the chicken sandwich looked amazing. Wish we had taste-a-vision😂.
