I'm Just A Girl Ha. that was very funny. Does anyone else think Stephen get awkward with dad jokes? I’ve never heard him talk about his dad.

R_Home8619 that's cause his dad and some of his siblings died in an accident when he was young; he was raised by his mom

Bedroom Pianist wow. I thought it was something like that. So my intuition isn’t that off.

The "mind of a chef" is good as well but is not a series based around solely chang.

If you like David Chang, he recently started a podcast about the restaurant business. He is also interviewed as a kind of big brother to the creator of Milk bar in "A Chef's Table: Pastry. episode 1”.

"Ugly Delicious" os pure racism

No. That show is dangerous. I ordered a bigger smoker halfway through the BBQ episode. 😂

Gracie C. I went out hunting for bunnies because I wondered what they tasted like after seeing it.

I find them equally the best food documentaries. ;)

Gracie C. Hahahaha I gained 5kg watching that show

Yea it was pretty good

Sushi with cream cheese is standard? On what planet?

sv 93 In the USA and Canada, it's a common pairing in rolls. The OG sushi doesn't use it.

Same with Avocado. Americans like that creamy stuff in their rolls.

Music Production I was stationed in Korea in the early 90's and love the food kimbap to ojingeo-guk but the best by far is kalbi . And you are so right many of the Japanese restaurants in many places are Korean owned, but more are opening Korean restaurants and some with the table style bbqs .

what do you mean by 'cream cheese is a pretty standard ingredient at sushi places'? Sushi and roll are not the same thing. I bet you'd be surprised if you go to Japan... or a real sushi place.

No talent = no space Just as simple like that

No Name Wow. So sad to read ignorance. Analysing the dynamics of disproportionate representation in media will be lost on you. And I'm not Asian.

Every time I hear "representation matters" that person is talking about something that doesn't matter

No Name You suck. What the hell man. What gives you the right to say crap like this.

the asian media would say otherwise.

Man you people are really circling the barrel looking for relevance. Lmao.

I dub these "Nach-oh-nos"

Bugles filled with spray cheeze.

New Message pass the joint homie

Yeah, that checks out with everything else that I know about you. Your entire personality is microwaved Bugles. Also, do you really think anyone believes you eat ANYTHING without processed cheese? You can't even write without using it.

New Message you are either everywhere or cloned.

Brandon Rojas Right? It would be so much better as a podcast I think. The late night talk show format is becoming outdated

yeah dominos is pretty expensive

Domino's constantly has like full-size pizza pies with toppings for under $10. Hell no is it expensive.

1Hour ofLove What are you doing on the internet if you can't even afford Dominos? You can't afford a large 3 topping for $7.99?

+Liam, you really need to lighten up. people make choices. most Americans spend a ton of money on eating out. i don't. it's a choice. 2nd, if you were less off which you apparently are not, you would notice a lot of poor and even homeless folks using the internet at the library, McDonald's, Starbuck's and Safeway supermarkets. If you don't know that, you must be pretty well off. Be grateful that you are.

Bruh how are you alive?

Should be named David Chan'g's Racism.

My hot dog is 100 % American.

Almost all things in America are immigrant things, including the language.

Apart from the native hotdogs duhh

No, sauerkraut is an American original, balief me. Just saying ...

Yeah, that should be right. It didn't start from the US, as far as I know.

aishx to be far John is English so he can't help it

yup. has garlic and ground dried red korean chili peppers

Tofu house kimchi is so good

What US food chains do you recommend to try in Mexico? I go to Guadalajara once a year

Pizza Hut sausage has WWWWAAAAYYYYY too much fennel in it. If I want sausage to taste like black licorice I'll damned well make it out of the stuff - HMMPH!

Sorry, but I have never been to Guadalajara and when I travel I tend to go to anywhere nearby where its cheap. So they tend to be local chains or restaurants.

if you like us little caesars. your pallet is junk dude

To each their own.

Who cares!

BBbobsleigh Even a regular hot dog essentially comes from German immigrants

Isn't he referring to the toppings? Toppings can change to appeal to a given culture. Down south. Add hot sauce.

Americans just take a while to appropriate foreign ingredients. Germans came to America a long time ago, thus sauerkraut has since been appropriated (along with hamburgers and hot dogs). Koreans have been in America far less time. Want more proof? Chinese food is an American staple, but the Chinese have been here since the 1800s.

Sauerkraut on a hotdog has become pretty Americanized. Where is kimchi on a hotdog is still a pretty foreign concept to most Americans. If you had any concept of nuance you wouldn’t need this explained to you.

I thought he (Steve) said, 'that's the immigrants I've know'... which I thought sounded nice. G-d bless Korea for bringing kimchi, the first typefont, first ironclad ship- military strategy, and all the tech of the smart phone, televideo, and High Definition and for sending the most missionaries to the world with the good news of Yesu, who was predicted by their older cousins- the Chinese... All Glory to G-d/Yesu in Heaven !

Michele K I think that was the joke

you ignored the obvious to start playing your racism card. as was explained earlier, sauerkraut has ALWAYS been accepted as normal topping for hotdogs, and part of the American hotdog image. jesus Christ, you guys need to comprehend what you are hearing, instead of just waiting for specific words that can enable your bullshit narrative.

I think sauerkraut, I instantly think of a delicious Reuben Sandwich though personally ;)

I never seen that option, sounds good though will have to try that

youngleo_95 He did that on purpose. You think STEPHEN wouldn't catch that? Especially since David explained it to him right before.

Im surprise Stephen didnt ask him " So where are you from?...Originally.

I don't think you guys heard him say "that's more american" right before saying it's an immigrant's hot dog. His point being essentially that everything "american" originated elsewhere.

I was thinking that too. Stephen is well-meaning but even when he's trying not to be racist, he still shows his disconnect. I don't think Stephen understood the msg thing at all. When Stephen played his character, I think many of us gave him the most credit since it was satire and he was pointing out the ridiculousness of the right, and I assumed he was as "liberal" (for lack of a better term, socially aware, not racist, etc.) as can be and we loved him for it. But watching him be himself now is interesting. I'm glad David used that example too because it's those biases about various East Asian cultures that people don't think about as much in America. I thought he was going to go for the fried chicken like that episode. Also, the hotdog is probably better with kimchi, and I'm glad he liked it, but the point was more about acceptance in culture progressing rather than one country vs. another country. Like you said, saurkraut is also an immigrant dish but from white cultures. Stephen's comments unintentionally demonstrates David's point about biases. This is partly why representation would be nice in the big late night shows (which are all hosted by white males like Fallon, Colbert, Corden, Kimmel, but no offence to them personally, as they are great); even when Stephen tries to be sensitive to these things, there's a point where he can't really get it since he has never had to go through being the target of racism, even casual racism. George Lopez was great.

good boi

Apt215 Melissa Brown Most of the country can't get Cottage Inn, sadly. I fell in love when I moved from Texas to Michigan.

Mahthah the only question here is: why are you bringing in Spanish language in a conversation about kimchi and sauerkraut?

Why not? The more countries, the merrier, eh?
