Seeing how they are deeply connected to korean culture and, in this episode, like mexican food I think they should check out the large korean community in pesqueria, nuevo leon, mexico. It is a community that started when a kia factory moved to the town of pesqueria and some koreans along with it as well. Since the factory moved there in 2015 there has been a booming community of close to 200k residents that, before the kia factory moved, had only about 20k inhabitants. This was because so many koreans started moving there and was soon after being called "pescorea" to show that the town had such a heavy korean influence. It said that its such a big community that a lot of the residents haven't needed to learn spanish because they only interact with other koreans. While other koreans have adopted their new home and started to mix korean and mexican culture. Y'all should try and see about going and filming in "pescorea" to see what its like for this channel or korean englishmen.

As a fellow Mexican, I’m so proud of the dishes that were introduced. Since most of the dishes present my media is always tacos! The “Sopes” dish is actually a sort of flat corn doughy tortilla that it’s traditionally pinch on the outline of the tortilla to make a sort of plate form. In order to spread black fried beans on the bottom, it’s typically know to use shred chicken, lettuce, and queso fresco “Mexican cheese” to top it off. (1/2)

[@marshmallow5223]

The mole enchiladas, are actually called “Enmoladas”. Mole can be made in multiple different ways, but it depends on the region that you’re are from. Typically most moles have some sort of seeds (ex. pecans,peanuts,sesame seeds, or sometimes even toasted bread) and the OG ingredient Chocolate in order to make this sort of sauce be nutty and creamy.

No one came into your house and said that you can’t cook a certain way or not speak Spanish( which is a European language btw)🙄 All the stores where I grew up have Mexican products in them, so I just debunked your claim. I can get carne asada, Sangria, Sidral, aguas frescas, crema, queso fresco, Mexican vegetables and fruit, Mexican candy like pulparindo and Mexican hot chocolate etc. Would you expect Americans or anyone not from there , living in Mexico to not assimilate to their culture and only speak English and expect all the Mexicans there to accommodate them? You can’t go to any other country and not assimilate so why do you expect to come here and not assimilate to American culture? No one is forcing anyone to not hold on to their traditions and culture as long as it’s not breaking American laws. How about you appreciate all the opportunities that America has, instead of complaining?

I love being Mexican this type of food is made regularly and I still love it every time

[@mariaesparza2465]

My Mexican heart is happy😊 love you guys!

[@goblinwizard735]

I’m glad yall did this! Mexican cuisine is one of the best in the world, so many Mexican cooks and chefs have amazing skills and knowledge base, but rarely get deserved laurels.

[@soul2soul399]

My mouth is watering! I must make chilaquiles for breakfast this morning!

[@sabrinastraveladventures4263]

Chilaquiles for breakfast!!! Is my go to everytime I step into Mexico ❤ That’s when I know I’ve arrived 😇 Yum yum aww 😭I miss Mexico 🇲🇽 Sabrina🇫🇷🇬🇧

[@christina-pg6tz]

No matter what I'm feeling sad, mad, happy, bored. All of it. Nothing takes me out of my busy thoughts like the videos from Jolly. Thank you.❤ Hope you have a TV show in America someday.

[@Verlopil]

I'm glad that some folks from the other side of the Atlantic are actually taking the time to try the best of the US food scene, after spending so much time ripping on the lower end of our food.

[@enriquefermina8171]

Yes as a Hispanic I’m glad you’re trying Mexican food….Dominican Cuban and many others are waiting 😅

[@jacquelinelugo5518]

As a Dominican 🇩🇴, since they are in New York. I would love for them to try out food. Since we have such a big population in NY. But they probably need a local to show them a good spot

[@qsvciqovvq8755]

For Cuban food they have to go to Hialeah or Little Havana 🤣

[@tlamatini4617]

@@dangercat9188Mexicans are waking up and dropping those ridiculous European terms that were “misused” and then coined by the Anglo Richard Nixon administration during the 1970s. Hispanic’s are from Hispania Spain and Latinos are from Italy, Spain, Portugal, France, and Romania. Mexicans are from North America!!!!!!!

[@anndeecosita3586]

I grew up making guacamole at home. Still do. I was surprised when I got older and found out some people don’t. I prefer it chunky than the over blended version many restaurants serves.

[@shamancarmichael5305]

So sad that it's raining and I can't go out for some good Mexican food right now! That looked so delicious!

[@cloudstrifejen]

Pepper & chocolate?! I have to try that someday! The relationship between Gabie & Ollie is precious. I mean, come on, a good friend who teases you a lot, but is ready to back you up whenever someone talks ill about you is a person you don't see everyday!

[@shuasbae8110]

I am so going there !!! Definately want my first mechilin star experiecne to be this welcoming and friendly!!

[@katsufatsu]

Been waiting for these episodes since I saw hooni’s post on IG. Love the NYC series!

[@Karla-ir3yp]

Jajajajaja Josh saying that the enmoladas look like a soggy burrito is just so funny to me for some reason lol I'm so happy you got to try mexican food! Hopefully next time you try pozole, tamales, even pan de muerto! Saludos desde México 🇲🇽

[@loyareyesyahery3868]

as a mexican i can confirm that this isnt mexican food but mexican food that has been visioned as a fancy fufu place

[@whereyoubean]

Now I love how Ollie defended Gabie 4:40 but also I want Sid to be on Jolly too. I know he appeared on Gabie's channel but I want to see Ollie and Sid/Gwang Ho interaction on cam and if he will say anything related to Masterchef Korea 😂

[@mirojone]

God, that mole looks FIRE. I need to get some breakfast. Loving this travel series.

[@catbuster101]

I was thinking the same. I love a good mole, and Chef was right, it's impossible to describe unless you've tasted it before!

[@Leah1run]

Title should be: "Brits try Mexican food in New York with a Korean chef" mic drop. Keep bringing the cultures together, love it!

[@dahyeskim]

I am utterly gutted right now... I work right by Casa Enrique.... I cannot believe you guys were so close I wanna cry T.T But yes, Casa Enrique is definitely a great Mexican spot to hit up if you're ever in LIC. Then afterwards, come visit me at Rockaway Brewery ;)

[@LaMgtx]

Mexican food, Finally! I have been waiting my whole life for you two to try Mole.

[@HappyValleyDreamin]

Now, go to New Mexico or Arizona and try their Mexican Food! You won't be disappointed!

[@LindaC616]

They should have tried it when they were in California

[@sunnydays4329]

Hey, that’s my neighborhood! So happy you guys can see more & taste what NYC has to offer outside of Manhattan. ❤

[@andrewmason8519]

I’m sure it was delicious, but like barbecue, the best Mexican food comes from holes in the wall.

[@Jeff_Lichtman]

That looked delicious! It's good to see someone trying Mexican food in the U.S. that isn't the typical Tex-Mex combination plate fare. The cheese on the enchiladas was probably cotija.

[@DaveTh3Ninja]

You love to see Ollie standing up for his sisterwife Gabie.

[@LaGüera90]

My husband is Mexican and I'm so glad to see you all trying this amazing food. One thing to note though, there are multiple different types of mole and only a few contain chocolate. I agree with some of the other comments that you should travel to the country itself and have a local show you what's best for a better representation.

[@meli3647]

❤❤ so happy you guys liked it! We have amaizing dishes in Mexico ❤
