I Made A $127 Boba For Simu Liu From Marvel’s Shang-Chi • Dish Granted

[@watcher]

Hey Watchers - Steven here! Thanks for following us along on this incredible season of Dish Granted. It was a true honor to have Simu on the show and I had a blast creating this dish (absolutely zero stress whatsoever). All that being said.. if there’s one takeaway from this episode, it’s to go watch Shang-Chi in theaters, September 3!

You're not kidding, this actor has been doing all the heavy lifting of promoting this movie mostly by himself with some help from dedicated fans. He's been heavily promoting it on his Twitter since day 1 but I'm not seeing ads for this movie anywhere, not on youtube or other websites or tv. The only reason I know about it is fans hyping it with mostly material the actor has provided. Normally it's hard to avoid Marvel ads but this movie is getting no advertising at all!

Dont imagine marvel/Disney would be self sabotaging their own profits. Lack of marketing might be a reflection of the times.

What are the odds they actually were friends before his Marvel fame? I'm excited just thinking about how exciting it must have been for Steven watching his friend make it.

[@Listening_Books12345]

I think they were, at the end of the ep Steven mentions that he and Simu were actually going to be roommates, but Simu got the call that he was in for Shang Chi, so Steven had to live alone with his cat 😂

[@Alicesdoco]

Their friendships is so cute. Simu's reactions to each thing were so pure. Best way to end the season. I'm gonna try see if I can make it at home cause there's no Boba guys in Australia.

[@AndreaEllenG]

This was so heartwarming! When Steven was pouring the layers in with Simu there, I could see the love and pride he has for his friend. All that effort celebrating his friend who's hitting it big!

[@xenophiliuslovegood6914]

"Steven Lim on-your-left moment" This guy summed up this entire series so well with a Marvel reference, I'm so pleased

[@esprit15d]

I loved that!

[@BlackRaven0211]

I've never waited for a Dish Granted so much as I waited for Simu's episode. (also, just a thing, he could be a part of Puppet History just saying)

[@calci2679]

OH MY GOD THAT WOULD BE GENIUS

[@BlackRaven0211]

@@calci2679 I just wanna see the Professor fanboying over Simu and maybe seeing Steven and Simu competing against each other

[@lostinlumiosecity]

i would love to see simu liu on puppet history !! or top 5 beatdown

[@raullarsen5013]

Can we take a moment to appreciate how good the editing is for this episode? The cutaways are perfectly timed, the pace is is easygoing without slowing down, and the episode stands up to a second watch to be an even better experience.

[@monicadomanguera3205]

I like how the longer Stephen did this the more markers he got for notes and dish design. First episode has like 5 markers. This one is a whole booklet

[@DokuroSkull23]

Simu is such a lovely and charming guy, seems like a ton of fun to hang with.

[@jbearclowater]

Every interview or media appearance I see from Simu gives me that same impression. So pumped to see him in Shang Chi next month, I feel like his career is about to skyrocket.

[@alicebershtein]

This series b like “watch Steven express his love language to everyone in his life” and we truly eat it up

[@Siriuslyloling]

I love all the care and devotion Steven has to make every meal something his guests will not only find delicious but very personal

[@jaysauer834]

Omg this is way better than Simu's promo interviews, y'all are such cute friends. You have to bring him on again!!

[@JaxlamKing]

This was the first episode I ever watched of this series, and now I'm watching it again after I've watched every episode in the series. Incredible! Can't wait for the next season!

[@paintthecosmos840]

"Half of life is just waiting for water to boil" -Steven Lim, 2021 Truer words

[@dddeepikaaa935]

I can't tell if Simu is dying from excitement or just genuinely concerned where he got himself into and what he's about to digest

[@laurendaley2503]

what a great guy, him becoming a marvel superhero and being a positive image for the asian community especially at this time is such a wonderful thing for him, lets hope he continues to be an amazing image for all audiences.

[@camilleosoba3981]

Uhoh

[@dexa6623]

Sometimes people will have celebrities or other creators on their shows, and they don't seem to know each other, but it seems like these 2 actually know eachother.

[@enochshen4741]

It has been a really fun and impressive season. Steven has absolutely nailed every dish. Not only showing his cooking capabilities but also showing his appreciation and love to the people around him. It was so sweet watching this episode 😝

[@jordynbilliau]

Simu Liu, aka the best thing to ever happen to Marvel Studios

[@AegiHoney]

The request seems easy but when i think about creativity and wow-ing and not to mention boba is kinda hard to make, this is not an easy menu. Heck, all other episodes weren’t easy either. Watching Steven make it all come true is actually encouraging. Enjoyed this season Steven. Kudos

[@k.k.7797]

Simu Liu is so underrated, I hope he continues to excel in his career

[@aibakaika]

rewatching this after the latest Pod Watcher episode and i could NOT tell half of this is ADR'd at all! amazing work, Annie!

[@klowe7213]

I just love this show. Came to Watcher for the Ghoul Boys, but Steven's cooking content (and bartending skills) have quickly become my favourite.

[@leslyc4309]

Seeing Steven get passionate and excited about the food he's made for his friends always fills me with So MUCH joy this was so sweet I love this series

[@SupremeLeaderKimJong-un]

Watcher is now canon in the MCU, and that's something you love to see

[@miekatilley]

Can you imagine The Professor doing a puppet history for the Snap? @Watcher can you get on this? :D

[@yellowandblue404]

Just the way steven talks, acts, and is....he makes me so happy!

[@KingFr0mNoWhere]

OMG I freakin died when Simu just completely loses composure for 2 seconds, “YOU SON OF B*TCH, THATS GENIUS!” 😂🤣😂 but man I loved this episode, so awesome to see the process of you making Boba, and the two you together is dope! Keep it up 👍💪

[@ghostathan]

I 90% expected Simu to kiss Steven for this. This is love.

[@MultiTimetravler]

I find it weirdly comforting to watch people pour, drink, and discuss tea.

[@whizzersterriblehorribleno773]

literally did a double take on the title!! i’m so proud of how far our boy has come

[@supratikmukherjee6811]

No wonder Simu got so mad at the dragon's den company. He loves his Boba!

[@lindasakaula4809]

Saw the thumbnail and was like “JUNG!!” Omg loved him in Kim’s Convenience. Can’t wait to watch his new movie!

[@milktea9524]

Simu and Steven having matching lover tea pets is adorable

[@bratwuurst]

I found this on my feed and just DEVOURED the entire Dish Granted series! Really gotta say that I'm loving Steven's vibes in every episode and the amount of effort he goes to in every episode for his guests AND I NEED MORE EPISODES

[@VI_VA.]

"That's pretty ambitious of you, Steven" -Tony in every episode xd

[@lizzy6149]

the end was just us watching simu fall in love with steven
