Brits Try REAL Tex-Mex for the first time!! 

Why does Ducky never get any food? Feed Ducky!

I can't get over the sex faces yall make every time yall take a bite of something 😂 You need to get your hands on a torta cubana, you'll never be the same.

Why would they put Nesquik in high quality Tex-Mex??? Nesquik has a ton of sugar in it. ICK!

@@fridaylong2812 if you are trying to be healthy then dont eat out in texas.

Still have the shirts?

He was but it still comes across as the typical american level of friendly - non-genuine.

@@outogetyougotyou5250that's 100% genuine and that's southern hospitality on full display

Texans are genuinely friendly. Why wouldn't we be? It costs nothing to be friendly and it's contagious

@@outogetyougotyou5250 It's really sad that you live in a place where genuine friendliness is viewed with suspicion. I hope you find your way to a better place.

​@@outogetyougotyou5250 It comes across that way because the American service industry is very customer oriented and there are rules about how often to check on customers etc... But if you are familiar with the nuance of the situation, you can tell this guy takes genuine pride in their food and is approaching this with the joyful attitude of sharing something he loves. 1. He is not a low grade server 2. Multiple workers are standing around waiting for the opportunity to be of service 3. Cracking jokes and bragging about prizes 4. Giving Ollie the Abuelitas None of these things are required, it's a token of genuine hospitality from someone who isn't concerned about earning a tip.

good to know that he genuinely takes care of people

@@jishan6992Born and raised in Texas! Only been to that particular location once, but you see men like him all over. Southern hospitality isn’t just a stereotype, it’s the truth. Smile at your neighbors, ask them for sugar, borrow their lawnmower. Maybe they’ll stop in and give you some money to get it trimmed if they notice it particularly overgrown and you can’t get on top of it. It’s a different world

Now I've a reason to go to Texas. I'm making a goal to go to this place. ❤

You don't know Joel. Please don't lie to the internet people.

@@dilypopphow was the food?

It was a nice touch but I wonder what his response would have been if there hadn't been a camera crew there. I doubt he would have stayed table-side the entire time.

That's because you are filled with doubt and he is filled with Texas pride of ownership. ❤🤠👍

They didn't pick the place out of a hat, ha ha. It's a popular place BECAUSE the owner cares.

Abuelita's goes hard though. Even though it's Nestle

@@BeeeazybonesIsn’t the only difference that it has cinnamon in it?

@@bleachdragon88 Oh oh no, I only meant that Nestle is an evil corporation that's hard to get away from

@@Beeeazybones How are they evil? Lol I was just pointing out the slight difference in their products

​@@bleachdragon88The evil of Nestlé has nothing to do with the cinnamon or lack thereof lol. It's something you can Google; I don't really have the time rn to try and summarize it all in a YT comment.

I agree and add that most people I encountered while in Texas were really that nice!

Going back soon and I always would pass this spot and never went in. Now imma make it a point.

In all fairness, if you have an award winning restaurant in Austin of all places, you’re gonna be accustomed to that kind of customer. Austin’s chock full of the eccentric types. I’m sure if they went to an ol’ abuella’s restaurant in San Antonio they’d have a much different reception.

Worked for me. Planning to go to the restaurant on my next venture to Austin. I live a few hours away, so it's totally doable.

I agree, I’m in Austin, and will be hopping on Yelp as fast as possible to find this place. 12:04

Yup. Always ready with an upsell.

I mean they are doing free advertising for his restaurant. You'd pay a hell of a lot more for a 1mil view advertisement than just a plate of donuts and almond milk.

Also it’s 100% our sport to watch non natives try our spicy sauces. They always underestimate and watching that realization hit is high entertainment. My money is on them deliberately watching for the Brits to hit the salsa.

Owner needed to find something else to do ... Huge Over-Sell. Other guest don't get this attention. Very off/putting. Give them a welcome, show them the food they are getting with a very brief explanation.. and get the hell out of the video after that.

​@@TenGreenRangersDude, it's a promo video. Of course the owner is gonna wanna make an impression on the audience.

😂

Silly man 😅

Every cuisine has its red sauce...

I lived in Austin for 15 years and have since relocated to CO. The Mexican fare up here can't compare to real TX tex-mex. They do have a Chuys up here so that's what I eat when I get a craving. I haven't eaten at a taco bell since I moved to TX and probably will never again!

Pride is right! Its great food. There are so many regional Mexican restaurants here in California as well. Mexican fast food is a joke compared to real food.

Tex-Mex is legit, coming from a fellow Tejano!

I'm from Tucson, so Sonoran is my flavor, but yeah. Taco bell isn't actual Mexican food.

First, Taco Bell doesn't claim to be traditional Mexican food. Texas changed that food to Tex-Mex for a reason. Americans like flour tortillas, cheese, beef for fajitas and crispy tacos. We love queso. NONE of that is Mexican. Period. How can you compare the two? Mexico uses hominy, tripe, goat, and a lot of peppers. It's like Mexico doesn't make comparable fried chicken or hamburgers. Italian American is not the same as different regions of Italy. I, personally, don't like interior Mexican cooking. Shrug.

That had me dying of laughter when it turned out he was on the money!

abuelita Taste's nothing like nesquik he was was just being nice its 1000 times better.

@@JesusBermudez-thatguy They're just playing on the fact they're both made by Nestle

I mean, Abuelita Mexican chocolate disks are quite a different product than powdered Nesquik, so I wouldn't say that Olly was right, but I'll give him credit for being close since they're made by the same company (Nestle).

I would totally go there that owner is just so genuine, the food must be good.

That part was great 😂😂

And it was almond milk as well! I found that to be really considerate towards any lactose-intolerant individuals who might have their mouths on fire after trying that 😂

@@JCXP123 Truth! :)

@@JCXP123 if it's got cheese in it, why would they be trying it in the first place?

@@tabby_cat sometimes dependent on the lactose-intolerant person’s body cheese is a lot less detrimental than plain milk

The dude is like this at 11am on a Monday or 9pm on a Saturday. Can't say enough about this restaurant and all their staff.

Trapped?🤣

Classic! 🤣

I moved from Tucson to Seattle in 1995. It was torture trying to find good Tex Mex

I’m in Cali there’s nothin like that out here 😭😭😭😭

From Arizona living in Utah now.. haven’t found anything that compares :/ I feel your pain

yes people like that can make your whole evening 100 times better and keep you smiling for days!

One ingredient out of 32!

The owner can get more at H-E-B supermarket, but that was nice

That’s American hospitality for ya! People from other countries should visit the 🇺🇸 more. We love getting to know people of different cultures, races, backgrounds,etc despite what you see or hear from the media. Plus, we have so many different types of good food. Why? That is a result of having so many different immigrants who came to this country. We truly are a melting pot. Cheers!

Yes, he's so knowledgeable about his food that he cannot even pronounce "queso". I'm not eating there if he is that ignorant.

😂

😂

Ollie is a super taster according to the genes test!

@@estherhung8028 😅 he definitely has some special kind of skill!

Josh: You might offend the chef, don't ask! Mexican Chef in back: Hey, I'm out of takis dust. Don't toss out those pork rinds. I'm gonna smash'em into breading for this chicken. What? He thinks I use Nestle!? Blasphemy! I get the walmart brand.

Queso and fajitas is the most Tex mex thing.

@@sekcgamer7623 right?! 😂😂😂

I swear by the San Antonio Tex-Mex and Mexican food!! The SA Mexican food just hits different than anywhere else haha

@@graysonk5477 agreed!! 😂

They just finished their New Orleans series.

It's sad that most of the world thinks Mexican food is just tacos and chili rellenos. I've heard it said that Mexico has a cuisine as diverse as China.

@@kansashoneybadger7899 just get any of Diana Kennedy's books. She did the same thing - in the 50's and 60's. The recipes are authentic, and her recipes cover each region of the country. But I still make my late mil's mole. It's the only one he will eat lol.

@@kansashoneybadger7899e've already had good mexican food for ages. u just been eating in crap restaurants. theres plenty of mexican variety. (mostly bbq varieties i will admit) u just gotta know where to look

Fact: there are more than 500 variations of mole, in all colors and textures, being the mole poblano (the one they tried in the video) the most well known. And yes, most of mole recipes comes from Oaxaca state. And no, the real recipe doesn't include commercial chocolate but true cacao (or at least, raw cocoa) and other 25 ingredients.

Believe me there are plenty of places to try "real" mole in Texas.

It’s all boiled meats and cabbage

💯

Nesquick is overly sweet and because of that it can end up messing with your stomach but Abuelita has that perfect balance of sweetness and creaminess that makes it so hard to emulate. I actually made some for my family a few days ago and we paired it with fresh conchas from the Mexican bakery near us.

Yeah my family loves their Swiss Miss but not me. They’re pretty typical picky eaters.

​@NxxtGenD That only happens to you with the nesquick

I think honestly there needs to be a video entirely devoted for this one topic. Ollie tries Abuelita :D

He's all in.

I LOVE Eldorado! So glad they chose to go there ♥️♥️

He seems like a pretty cool guy. The hospitality there is just second to none.

sounds so good! Last time i was in Austin, i went to The Salt Lick BBQ. Simply awesome! What's the best BBQ in AUstin and next time i'm there i'm definitley gonna check out the El Dorado! Great vid!

@@shanecrowe5955 So many “best” bbq joints. Franklin’s gets the most media coverage and their brisket is definitely the best in the area most consistently. It tastes like it was made from the happiest cows on Planet Earth. It’s really special. They accept a limited number of pick up orders 30 days in advance if you want to skip the multiple hours wait. Snow’s in Lexington (50 mins outside of outside of Austin, Saturday AM only) has won Texas Monthly’s Best BBQ twice (pork ribs, sausage, smoked chicken, and beans are their best offerings.) This is my personal favorite. Leroy & Lewis is killing it right now and, wow, a major talent. Terry Blacks is a Best All Around because every dish and side is an A or A+ and they have their operation running right. You experience less of “Item Sold Out” 20 minutes after opening then at many other spots. If you are coming from out of town and don’t want to miss out on a variety of meats, TB is always a solid choice. Their bottled condiment sauces (not bbq sauce, more like Hot Ones hot sauces) like Chipotle Mustard are available for sale and a great way to elevate sandwiches and eggs back home. Interstellar in Cedar Park (15 mins Northwest) is another huge up-and-comer but it seems difficult to make enough BBQ to meet demand. Saturdays have a bigger menu with some featured meats but it’s very limited. Honestly, it’s such a crapshoot, I haven’t even tried ordering from them for several months.

@@keawarren thanks for the info!!!

​@@bartwatts1921 I lived there 4 years... I prefer the South anytime

Abuelita is trash. And moat moles dont use it. Not sure where in Mexico you go to hahaha

Mole has chocolate

He does that everywhere, comparing food to something with which he is familiar.

The comment that got me was "we don't have these types of flavors in Britain." XD With the exception of foods from invaded countries, Britain doesn't have flavors, full stop.

The Eastern hemisphere wouldn't have cacao, vanilla, tomatoes, chilies, potatoes or maize; The Western hemisphere wouldn't have citrus, apple, banana, mango, coffee, tea, wheat, onion, or rice without the Columbian exchange. Most of the most famous national dishes of Asia, Europe and and the Americas, wouldn't exist without plants and sometimes animals from the opposite hemisphere, brought by Europeans.

@@catstreat9434 pickled onions, boom

I think that’s why josh was giving him side eyes and telling him it’s not, Josh understood how offensive it is to the cook who creates the dish

It seemed like an honor to him that these young men from abroad wanted to try their food. He treated them like they came to his house. Really nice vlog!

Well for all its flaws, and it has many, Texas has some of the most welcoming people in the states, if not the world.

Right. You can tell they didn't start out with the idea of making money, then settled on a TexMex restaurant as a way to do it. They started out wanting to share their good food, and now presumably make money doing it. That's a recipe for sustainable real success.

do they really make your mole chocolaty in texas? in alabama its definitely not chocolaty

@@thunderborn3231 the traditional Mexican way of making Mole does include chocolate but you don’t have to add it if you don’t like it :)

@@thunderborn3231 Aileen beat me to it, but yes! Traditional ones are prepared that way!

​@@thunderborn3231 yes there's chocolate in the real recipes. But not chocolate in the Hershey's way, but in the pure cocoa form

@@jonsnow2555 lol, I get where you're coming from. I went to a few places in Texas and while each were a bit different, the restaurants were all the same. A lovely southern accent, great hospitality, but they do NOT do sweet tea lol so be forewarned 😋 (at least the places I went- did not)

@@crimsonmckenzie98Of course we do sweet tea.

@@crimsonmckenzie98 Texas does not do Sweet Tea? Hahahahaha!!!!......

Like I said, the places I went did not. I was shocked! They handed me unsweetened with sugar packets lol I visited San Antonio, and a few places through Wichita Falls. *Shrugs

vs authentic mole!

i demand this too. i think ollie should be given fajita stuff and nesquick then cook it versus a chef who knows how to cook mole that has actual mole ingredients. (someone don't tell Ollie that there is multiple different colored mole).

...and does a channel cross over to make poor Bruvna and the high school boys try it.

Except in this case he's not correct at all and the owner of the restaurant was just being nice in saying he nailed it. 😀

@@PorcupinePunched wrong! Traditionally Molé has the chocolate bars he handed him. There are different states in Mexico that will swap out the brand or tartness by using dark chocolate and some will even make their own chocolate bars from scratch and use them but the recipe requires chocolate bars.

@@geniuswithacapitalk No, not wrong. That's exactly what I said. You use Abuelita, not Nesquik like Ollie said. So my point still stands.

@@PorcupinePunched Although no states in Mexico traditionally use Nesquik or other powder hot chocolate mixes on their mole recipes, you could use it in a pinch for the chocolate flavor. I personally don't like it since it makes the mole sauce taste much sweeter due to the extra ingredients added to them and I'm not a fan of sweet sauces, but you could definitely use it. And btw... He's 100% correct in saying that in different states we use different chocolates for our mole. Abuelita is the most common store-bought chocolate but there's many brands that can be used for mole. In the state of Chihuahua there's a preference for Oso chocolate and in the south it is much more common to buy homemade chocolate bars.

@@ivanavila9074 I appreciate your opinion, but I have to disagree. I've only had one type of mole that I think nesquik could maybe work in, used in any others and it would just ruin the flavor profile and completely change dish. With the time and work involved in making mole who is going to settle for using the wrong ingredient? I'm not sure what kind of family you come from, but mine and nobody's that we knew had fancy pre-mixed chocolate milk powder, we made it ourselves from cocoa and sugar because those are staple pantry ingredients and you can use them in more than one thing, like mole. Sure cocoa powder isn't traditional, but in a pinch it will work and not mess up the flavors to such an extent.

I went to England last year as a native Texan that's half Mexican and they literally thought Nacho Cheese Doritos were Tortilla Chips. That's all you could find if you went looking for some in the local stores. Such a shame really, I was dying without some, but I didn't have enough knowledge of their ovens to figure it out and handmake em myself.

I'm confused, I'm a bit and we have plain tortilla chips everywhere,you must have met some very culturally clueless people and been to shops that don't carry a wide choice...

Brit*

We don't call plain tortillas tacos lol we call tortillas tortillas and taco shells taco shells

@rhi91 are you down in Southern England or up in Northern England? I imagine down south England (i.e.: closer in proximity to London), you will find plenty. Up in Northern England, not a single tortilla chip and I was not about to take all the trains to go down to London for a bag of tortilla chips 🤣 cuz that's crazy! And I only was able to go to Tescos because in the smaller villages up North, that's all they got. Now going to York (a big city) could probably find tortilla chips, but if I'm going to a big city, I'm not looking for my personal comfort food as a tourist. If I'm staying in the smaller villages where restaurants are just fish n chip shops, yeah. I'd appreciate some comfort food.

I know, right? I can only watch Jolly if I am also eating something myself, otherwise it's just torture 😂

They really did take care of them. Very respectful al the way around.

I so miss it. My aunt use to make it it for our family unions, she married a Mexican and her mother in law taught her how to make her husband’s favorite dishes. Her mole was always gone first without everyone getting some, huge family and she bought 2 huge dishes of it. I asked her to teach me, nope she wouldn’t break her promise to her mother in law.

Before I began teaching Hispanic kids in high school classes, I had never once heard or thought of adding chili to chocolate. Brilliant!!
