I'm a Thai and watched you many years ago since you were in Mark Wein videos, very good to see your Channel much more famous because for me you are the Farang that I believed you already could be a Thai and your Thai accent are perfect I meant for me as a Bangkokian your Bangkok accent are much better than many Esan and Tai(south) Thai people for sure I can guarantee.👍👍👍😂😂😂

Ur command of Thai is amazing. By far d best foreigner who speaks impeccable Thai language n could even read n write . Unbelievable. one for d Guinness Book

Hi Joel & Li ... welcome home to Chiang Mai. Not a fan of organ meats but I will roll with the punches - guess it's an acquired taste. I wish you both have a wonderful Holy Week as we just celebrated Palm Sunday of the Lord's Passion. Peace be with YOU & God Bless!

Fun foods Sunday.. I like it 😋👍

He made me laugh out loud when you said, the person asked you to say again because they thought you said bile. So true, very funny. Love seeing you on Mark the other day. You look really good man. Great shape. Proud of you, dude seriously! I hope I get lucky to meet up with you sometime.

Hi Joel and Li! Keep up the good vibes! I love the food and bike riding! And of course, traveling. Beautiful. 🙏🙏🙏

Saibaidee Joel! SAEP SAEP! SAEP LAI! Laap holds a special place in my heart for many reasons. I could already tell that Thum was gonna be fire seeing the sauce being dark.

Been here since around 15k subs and just can't understand why this hasn't blown up more!! One day soon hopefully!

Last time Joel picked a restaurant with an interesting slogan; this time he picked one with an interesting name. "Wittee" (วิถี) can mean the method of doing something, but that's usually expressed as "wittee tam" (วิถีทำ). "Wittee" can mean path, route, or way. There's a very common expression, "wittee Thai" (วิถีไทย). It meets the Thai way of life. Living life the Thai way means maintaining the culture, keeping the customs and traditions alive, following social norms, etc. And you pass all that on to your descendants. Larb is such a signature dish. It's associated with a certain way of life. It's the "taste of home" for so many people in the North, Esarn, and Laos. I wouldn't be surprised if the name of the restaurant is a humorous play on the term "wittee Thai". It appears to be a simple name, but there's a deeper cultural meaning behind it. "Wittee Larb"... "The Larb Way of Life". 👍👍👍 I love it!

The video I saw recently that you did with Mark again was fantastic 🎉. It was nice to see the two of you together again ❤

awesome video, top-tier quality, your vids are looking great. love ya bro! peace, love, and conserve water. ✌️❤🌊

Glad you pronounced it correctly. Irks me when people call it "larb"

Hi Joel 🙏hi Li 🙏 hi BruCrew 😊 I still haven't visited the north of Thailand 👍 who knows...😊 take care everyone 🙏 Joel your enthusiasm is contagious 👍

Great to see the vid which is so tempting to try

Oh, man! Mark Wein and you are like twins in your gestures and manners, which is insane to watch! By the way, I bumped into your contents having watched Mark Wein's current South India cuisine tour.

I was born in Cali so it was so easily accessible to get these ingredients. First born Gen asian cambodian/I don't know anymore. I joined the military then traveled so much. But fast forward I'm in lousiana. Not much but what any culture does make it work it. I'm in a state that it's alll agricultural. Love it, I'm actually making things that is only here. Sadly there's not alot of fish I want to eat here.

Thailand is my dream vacation ❤ This video is one of my favorites 😊 Thai food is my absolute fave!

Here in US (New England) in Thai restaurants they call it larb. Mostly made with chicken meat. It's usually pretty dry, at least what I had.

❤❤ Yummm.. Have a awesome week Joel, Li and the Bru Crew Ohana!! ❤❤❤🤙🏼🤙🏼🤙🏼

Hi Joel and family. Great to see you all on the livestream. Watching videos of you and Mark, Joel. So many memories watching you guys over the years. God bless.

Goshhhh, I am so hungry now! Thanks, Joel 😂

Great vlog Joel Li lovely food great restaurant saving to visit cheers 👍👍😁

Cool video Joel❤

Oh wow! I visited Chiang Mai over New Years and I celebrated NYE just around the corner from that place at 1st press bar. I even bookmarked this restaurant but didn't manage to visit. Food looks amazing! Can't wait to come back to Thailand :)

Good morning, Li and Joel. 🙏🙏

Thank you for sharing such a great video. I'll definitely visit this restaurant when I'm in Chiang Mai next time.

Joel & Mark tries everything that is eatable ❤ gotta watch them for that

Very informative, Thanks Joel!

Amazing meal reminds me of my childhood

That looks so awesome!!! Sitting in my living room drooling all over my sofa again ;)

I was looking forward all day for this video to be uploaded to watch! Thank you for sharing a lovely cuisine! Sending you and Li a huge hug and ❤ from South Florida

MSG! Love it!

Yeah, you made me hungry!

Long time no see you very happy see you again brother you look different

Good evening from Marudi Sarawak!! That awesome menu from Northern Thailand. Im not familiar with the name but this vlog did give full information about each of the menu!! Joel you really master about the food backgroud! I love it. #MarudiWithLove😊

I say it is the love they put in Thai food ❤. It is not easy to prepare Thai dishes properly with great flavor and ingredients.

14:36 ดีปลากั้ง Phlogacanthus pulcherrimus T.Anderson.

Bile is amazing, and is the sole ingredient that makes Laab unique and gives it its special characteristic flavor.

Thank you , this video is very interesting and attractive

Nice. You are back home after the South India trip.

I appreciate Li's sensibility, better safe and sorry. : ) I also appreciate how these dishes use a lot of animal parts that would most likely be discarded, well here in the states anyways.

Gday Joel, Hi Li , much love brewcru. What a Laab'ly video to kick of my monday afternoon. I must try some sticky rice , definitely on my next menu of thai or chinese food. Thanks for sharing bro, much love from the troops and I. Shine On ❤👐👋👋🙏🍻🍻💪

big offal fan, so loved this video! nice thumbnail too ;)

Looks pretty good to me, the cabbage would be my favorite !

Safe travels, God bless you and keep you safe.

Oh! Looks yummy 😋

Hi Joel and Li! Thanks for taking us along for the ride. I love learning through your experiences. ❤

คุณทานอาหารไทยเก่งมาก🤤🤤

@14:40 I think that's what Thais call "ma-dtum sah-u" (มะตูมซาอุ "Saudi Bael"). It's not actually in the bael family, but Thais gave it that name because its fragrance is similar to bael. It's commonly eaten with larb. There are many English common names, Brazilian pepper tree or Florida holly, for example.

14:35 I think (not sure) that leaf is from the tree called 'Som Lom' (Scientific name : Aganonerion polymorphum).

Thanks

Nice camera work!

Hello joel thanks for sharing your videos sending love from Houston tx say hi to mommy oh and daddy oh

Man you are enjoying allll my favorite food but I am eating everyday fast foood lol

คุณมีความรู้ความเข้าใจในวัฒนธรรมอาหาร ได้เยี่ยมมากๆ เป็นตัวแทนคนไทยที่อธิบายให้ชาวต่างชาติได้เข้าใจในความเป็นไทยในแต่ละภาคได้ดี ขอบคูณครับ

Lemongrass, basil, MSG and all things good 🤤

Thailand good food very cheap I think one day I have a to come visit thailad eat Thai food because every thing very good food very cheap price enjoy your food have a safe travels trip brother happy see you and your family

It’s authentic taste. Most Thai restaurants in US are westernized.

Amizing bro nice night food😊

You are more fun and you are not egocentric like your friend Mark, I had to say it very clearly!! just in case like 590!!

How do you eat chillies like that?

I’m hungry now

Hi there , I am watching your blog after a long gap … I don’t know what changes you made in your appearance, you have started looking like like singer lonie Riche… the younger & Better version of course 🙏

Let’s start with the meaning or Tum and the meaning of Yum

👍👍👍🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻👍👍👍

Is there mint in northern Thai laap?

Novo inscrito

Are you Mark Wein's brother? You kinda look alike even in your expression and way of talking😂

❤

Hello joel ✌️

I do wonder. I noticed there are A LOT of deaf people/people with hearing damage in Thailand. I suspect there is a reason for that. Namely bacterial issues with raw meat dishes.

blackie sweet potato plant please there is 2 type

Laos laap is the best.. FYI northern Thailand is influenced by Laos ingredients. Issan is in Thailand but more influenced by Laos.

Almost as a tom yum… seems to me you have know understanding of the wording yum

Is this mark wiens?

I take it back 😂 the innards… no, thank you!

Is he related to mark Wiens at all? Lol

Tom yum doesn’t have coconut milk…. Coconut milk came later on

What Crazy Ingredients Make Thai Food Taste SO GOOD? Monosodium glutamate Monosodium glutamate Monosodium glutamate

U wearing contacts now?

What no bugs and chilis your slipping Joel in a dirty bucket

Why does he look and talk like Mark Weins?

Why do all the bad guys get the good stuff?

VERY DELICIOUS FOOD I MUST SAY ...BUT ONE ADVICE IF ANYONE WHO IS PREGNANT SHOULD NOT EAT RAW PAPAYA SALAD THOUGH IT IS MOUTH WATERING BECAUSE YOU CAN LOOSE YOUR BABY ...REST AS USUAL GREAT VIDEO JOEL

Laap/larb does not mean raw… you are dead wrong on that….

Chopped ,fresh and raw is a way wrong to describe the dish…..get back to basic with understanding

Laap = sure way of getting intestinal worms😂

thai food doesn't look good to me it's always grounded up little pieces of meat

Laab is a Lao dish 100%. Thai has no real dish. Its all Laos

Great! Thanks for sharing another new place (to me! [for most of us?]) In Chiang Mai! Never knew about this place, even with searching on Google maps. There are many spellings of (Laarb, Larb, Laab, Laap, Lab, ลาบ) Oh! WithiLarb shows up with the org Thai word ลาบ (Best way to search for OG food. Great explanations of what you're eating, how to order too! If I recall, you made a video with your pal, Bank's family who were preparing ลาบ maybe even roasting the ingredients for Pric Laarb! I guess at the end of this, the owner was showing you the house Pric Laarb they have for sale. It seems that most serious Laarb places have their own house blend that they often have bagged (bottled!) for sale. Fun to collect and compare. I kind of think of Lanna Pric Laarb the same way I think of Oaxacan Mole' ; all kinds of mystery ingredients slow roasted and ground. Like the Maquan you mentioned, in the same family as Szechuan peppercorn (Prickly Ash.) There's even ground tree bark in some recipes but yeah, all kinds of "secret ingredients!" My favorite in town (so far,) is Laab Kai Meuang Phan Waen. They've got the Bile as a side dish, that you can just dip your sticky rice scoop right into! YOW! I love a bunch of others south of town, including the "Laarb master" at the Sanpatong Buffalo market on Saturday A.M. !

ITS Just to much man wtf

salt and sugar - duh
