15 minutes and 31 seconds of smiling, my cheeks hurt now! Thank you Gaz for doing what you do!

From plucking up the courage to start a KZfaq channel to share my vegan recipes 5 years ago, to reaching over 1 million subscribers & now launching the first episode in my DIY food & travel show made with my friend & colleague Tom. What was just supposed to be a much needed holiday to Mexico earlier this year, I became so inspired by the rich culture & food in Mexico, I swiftly called up Tom and asked him to join right away, to make a film. I have long been inspired by tv chefs & personalities such as Anthony Bourdain, Action Bronson, Keith Floyd & Rick Stein, who travel the world sharing the beautiful stories of the local people. I have longed for the opportunity to do the same but in my style & promoting plant based food. The series Muy Rico will consist of 4/5 episodes, over the following few weeks & it will document the beauty & richness of Mexico & the Mexican people. We had to start with an episode based on TACOS! See what happens when I create my own taco for local taco EXPERTS. Thank you so much for watching and for supporting me over the years. Lets hope enough people watch & enjoy, so that one day maybe we’ll get a much needed vegan Netflix show! Big Love Gaz

We definitely need a vegan Netflix show starring Gaz! ❤️‍🔥

Unbelievable comments guys, thank you so much. Means the world. I will try to reply to as many as I can over the next few days. Keep sharing the video too! Episode 2 will be out soon 🇲🇽❤️ Viva Mexico

You are in Mexico, eating Mexican food and making Mexican food; that's basically our adoption process. My brother, you are Mexican. Welcome to the family 😊🌮 🇲🇽 mi casa es tu casa !

When I spent a few months in Mexico I gained almost 10 pounds and I was eating vegan 😂, authentic Mexican food is so much better than most Mexican restaurants in the US

As a long-time follower and Mexican vegan myself I cannot express the joy this brings me. I love to see the most amazing cuisine in the world shared to the vegan community by someone like yourself. Thanks for visiting! 🇲🇽🌱💕

Wow, I'm so happy to see you in Latin lands! The Mexican food is so delicious. You need to make vegan tamales. Es delicioso!!!!!

I am in tears!... you and Tom managed to capture all the flavours and spirit of the mexican people in such a beautiful way. I am mexican and haven't been able to come back in the last 3 years. Seeing you visiting some of my favorite places to eat and walking on the streets, hearing the music, brought me so much memories and joy! I love your channel so much and I'm sure this new project you are launching is going to be amazing and exciting. I can't wait to see the next one.

As a Mexican vegan, I’m living for this content 🇲🇽 can’t wait for the next episode already!! 🥰🔥

I live in Tulum and have seen so many vegan taco carts pop up in the last year its amazing! I drive by that one on my bike almost everyday and haven't tried it yet, definitely have to stop by!

Just wanted to tell you that me and my chef girlfriend just watched this episode whilst eating vegan tacos here in our home, in Mexico City. Let us know when you return so we can teach you more traditional dishes from scratch! Beautiful episode! So happy to see you enjoying everything this country has to offer

As a Mexican from Mexico City, this video really brightened my day. Just to see other enjoy where I’m from and knowing how much we’ve evolved integrating veganism to our very meat-heavy culture is just so amazing. Thanks Gaz 🥲💚

I like it how you have started giving historical references of the food in your videos. I hope your good work grows way bigger than this, eagerly waiting for the other videos. Cheers, Gaz!

I'm so happy to see you in Mexico!! The indigenous cuisine was mostly plant-based. Such a beautiful place, the warmest people, and loving culture. Love this series, Gaz!

This video is fire, my friend. Loved the flow of it.

As a Mexican, I want to thank you for this. The coverage of vegan options and the kindness of Mexican people was beautiful to watch. I look forward to watching all of the next episodes of this series, buen provecho!

I'm excited to see the Mexican recipes Gaz, Ariba Ariba 😃🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

I’ve been waiting for this since I knew you were here in Mexico. I can’t wait to see the next episodes!!! I hope you guys come back soon. 🇲🇽 ❤️

Amazing production Gaz! Big tingz a g'wan!! Soooo proud of you and where the channel is going. This travel show is BETTER than a restaurant in UK ❤️❤️ 🌮 🌮

Watching your best vegan burger from 3 years ago! You also said you’ve always wanted to go To Mexico! & look at you now!! Congrats to you! Can’t wait to watch! ❤️

Thank you for coming to my country. Glad you enjoyed it. Hi from northern Mexico. ♥️

I can’t wait for you to get the attention of Netflix. Vegan food and vegan street food around the world is amazing and you’d be the perfect guide.

Give this man a tv show! Absolutely loved this💛 I’ve just returned from Mexico and it is my favourite place in the world because of how nice the people are and how rich the culture is

Thanks for sharing your travel experience in Latin America! Our culture is super rich and colorful

Thank you for doing this. I’m Mexican and I never thought I could eat authentic Mexican tacos again. I can’t wait to try them!!

Incredible Gaz! Love that you are getting recipes and techniques from the source! Adds validity to your recipes as well as places the people of these culinary cultures at the center. Amazing work as always!

Hi Gaz! Great video! Your taco's looked epic! That was my daughter and her fiance that you served. She and her twin, and elder brother and me (mumma) all are subscribers, and vegans. The twins bought yoyr book as soon as it came out, my daughter and ger fiance said you were so nice, they are still in Mexico, back to sunny England next month. It was a massive highlight to meet you, and they said your food was delicio! Looking forward to your upcoming video's. Bless you Gaz, enjoy the rest of your stay

I've always wanted to go to Mexico 🥲🥰 🇲🇽 This looks like the trip of a lifetime, so jealous!!! Can't wait for more episodes!!! 💚

I just love this video so much! So respectable of the culture! 🇲🇽

Gaz, you are an amazing chef! Thank you for introducing millions to how tasty plant-based/vegan food can be! Always appreciate your videos!

Mexican here following you for a long time now and it is weird but at the same time exiting seeing you cooking with produce that I'll be able to get at my local grocery stores, I really hope everyone were respectful and kind with you here 💕

I so enjoyed watching this! KZfaq has not offered this video to me, I found it watching you garden tour. I love your enthusiasm, your charismatic connection with the Mexican people and your excitement and passion for eating plants. Thank you for this!!!

This is the epitome, you’re truly an inspiration and an incredible cook. My friend asked to borrow my copy of your book and has not returned it. She’s switching to a plant-based diet and enjoying your recipes like I do. Now, Mexican food is my ultimate favourite food and I’m African and one of the few vegans in my country. Love this and can’t wait For the coming episodes 👌🏾😘

Im gonna go backpacking in southern mexico this autumn! Im vegan, and I dont really know what its gonna be like traveling and eating there, but this looks fantastic! Any tips and advice from anyone here is appreciated💚 has anyone here eaten vegan food in Oaxaca, maybe?🙏

Hi, Gaz! I hope you come to Ottawa someday in order that I can buy a signed copy of your 4th cookbook! Cheers! 🍻

ALL of your videos (recipies) are brilliant.But THIS one is a.......HAMMER 🤓 I love Mexico,the Mexican vegetarian and vegan cuisine.This video is absolutely amazing.A BIG THANK YOU from a German vegetarian 🙏

Yes! This video was much needed! 🇲🇽Mexican food is the absolute best

I usually don't enjoy tourists coming to Mexico. Most try to bargain with locals and increase my rent when they choose to stay and drive small businesses out of work.... but you, my friend... I welcome you with open arms. The love and appreciation you show towards my people is unmatched. The fact that you can get behind a local stand and humbly whip up some magic. Chef's kiss.

Thank you so much for visiting my marvelous country and enjoy our magical food. I hope I had seen you when in Mexico City as I am a big fan!

These cooking traditions are a gift from our indigenous ancestors. Mexico is incredibly diverse and every region has its own traditions and cuisines. There's at least 68 indigenous languages in Mexico and I speak a little bit of one of them, Nahuatl! (the most popular culture to speak this language were the Aztecs, but it has existed before them). I've been to Tulum too and so far the best vegan tacos I've ever tasted were from there! Xikpiya se kwalli ohtli! May you have a good path!

I live in mexico city, and i think i saw you in La Roma, but i was thinking it was my imagination! now seeing this video I know it was really you, lol. Love your videos, keep it up!

I've been waiting for more documentary-style content since Salt of the Earth and this did not disappoint. Looking forward to the next episodes ✨

I'm excited for you being there! I've been in the channel for 3 years now and I got really happy when you accomplish things like these! Wish you the best pal, you deserve it. Greetings from Argentina

A HIGHLANDER in Mexico with a taste for Ancient glorious food! You can't beat that!!

It makes me so happy to see you visited my home country eventhough I've never been to Mexico City it makes me proud you found actual vegan food. I'm very impressed with your Spanish, you know how to roll your R's very well 👌. Looking forward to the rest of the episodes 😁

Love your content man! Makes me smile

It’s mind boggling how these videos don’t attract as much attention as the others. Even though there’s a language barrier, cooking is a universal language and brings people together. You can sense all the love and community in these travel videos. And you learn a lot! Keep these kinds of film/documentary style videos coming!! 💚🌱🌎

LOVE this series 🇲🇽!!! Thank you!!!

Loved this Gaz! Gracias por compartir!

Can't wait to watch it !

I never wanted this video to end!!!! So beautiful thank you for getting to know the people of Mexico & our food. We love you 💕

Hello from 🇬🇺. Love the incorporation of history behind the dish. I'm not a vegan, but your videos inspire me to eat less meat, eat more veggies, and be intentional about not wasting anything. Your passion for food inspires and informs, thank you. 💕

My Tia Mariya made us, her nieces from scratch tortias! Enchiladas and many very delicious Mexican meals. We were about 9 to 11 yrs old. What a wonderful memory you have stimulated! BRAVO! TY

I didn't think it was possible to love you more chef. I'm so happy you enjoyed Mexico.

Aww I love it! This brought me back to my roots. I haven't been back to Mexico in 4 years and I miss it so much. I been following you for quite some time and your culinary skills are amazing, your recipes are so delicious. And this is my first comment ever on KZfaq. That's how much you moved me.

My gosh do I miss Mexico. Cómo Mexico no hay dos. Cannot wait to see more. ❤️❤️

Such a wholesome episode! My mouth is watering too. Can't wait for the next one 😄

Different type of video, but very enjoyable. I found myself smiling non stop. My face aches now. It’s great to see vegan food being represented around the world.
