Thai Boat Noodle Soup 

My mouth wants this so bad. But my butt says no. I listen to the butt.

This guy only makes videos when it's raining in NY lol

Such a bad idea to watch this at 12 am when I'm about to sleep.

I always get confused. He makes a face like he is disgusted when he likes it

The first time I tried Thai boat noodle my coworker asked me if I wanted some and I love noodles so I kinda just went for it. I didn't know it was made of blood until another person told me lol. I wasn't scared considering the first time I tried it without questioning and it was delicious

Mike, I know you like your steak medium so what's up with the blood,, lol

Wow... Kudos for kicking it up a notch or 50.. ;)

I hope you will hold the spicy a bit as they kinda destroy all the flavor... All you taste is the spicy and the pain (~_~;)

"Crunchy garlic" is a popular ingredient here in Thailand, along with pickled garlic. The condiment rack is found at every Thai restaurant. Unfortunately, most of the meatballs you find here in restaurants are frozen pork and have the consistency of rubber and are totally tasteless. Som Tam ( green papaya salad) is one of the most ubiquitous foods you will find here. My favorite meal is Som Tam with Kao Neaw (sticky rice) and Gai Yang (barbecued chicken. I DO have to ask that whoever is making my Som Tam to hold off on the Nam Pla (fish sauce), which the Thais put on almost EVERYTHING. They may love it, but for me it is nasty! No problem with the chillies though!

I cringe a bit when he put that much dried pepper in his soup. He didn't know what he was getting himself into lol

I'm glad you're still doing these trips. Love watching you eat and explain what you're eating, it's history, etc.

And explore more SOUTHEAST Asian foods - in my opinion, better than Chinese by a slight bit because it evolved from Chinese. But I am biased, since I am from Southeast Asia :)

Yes. That's the thing about Thai chili, it is kinda nice, rich and hot and fragrant at first impression, but the heat will keep developing in your mouth more and more and becomes so much stronger when you're already enough of it. And that is when it's really painful because it won't go away and keeps burning.

thai chilis were how i learned to like hot stuff, the damn things are addictive as hell

I enjoy your videos not just for the food experience but how you do research and educate on the cuisine you are eating. I love to hear how food dishes came about. Thanks and will be subscribing!

finally met ur match with chilli?

Southeast Asia definitely have some delicious noodle soup! Should try some like bun Bo hue, khao soy, etc.

8:05 MIstake Mistake have been made!

It's normal to get small portions of noodles when ordering boat noodles. That's why some people order up to ten bowls

Mike, love your food adventures as always! Would you include the prices of the dishes and the grand total in the description bar or at the end of the video?

This dish maybe is good with iron content? Since it is a blood broth. Any thoughts on that?

I think we need to have Mike do some sort of spicy food challenge to see how much spice he can take

I'm late discovering your videos so I'm playing catch up

I can only eat blood soup if there is some vinegar in it. I am the same as you with the Black Vinegar too. I noticed in CA though not all restaurants will serve black vinegar at the table. Love your Videos Mike! You are always so natural - I feel I'm skyping with a friend. Good job!

I want to hear about places you find that isn't good...but I think that is technically considered slander so idk

As a Thai, i can tell from the look of it that the foods are quite authentic. Many Thai foods have the influence of Chinese food too so the dumplings are called the same as shumai we have no distinguished name for the two. We might just say that it's a Thai version of it. The way that you eat boat noodle is exactly the way that I would eat, extremely hot and spicy but normally I wouldn't put that much chili powder in any other kinds of food other than boat noodle tho. And yes, wide noodles usually goes well with clear soup or stir-fried (we have many types of that too) with this rice noodles would be appropriate.

what I've learned about boat noodles is they're served in large bowls with little soup because the soup would slosh and spill all over the boat and the server and customer

Big Massive Bowl of Noodles? MIke you missing a point of Boat Noodles here you supposed to make a Tower out of a Empty bowl!!!!!

ummm those are not boat noodles... unless the boat noodles i ate are not real boat noodles...LOL I do remember my bowl was not that BIG! I had to order like 8+ or more bowls to be full but it was 2-3 dollars each depending what you want. (and No im not in thailand)

i want to see home made hotpot video. since i am not chinese, i dont know what kind of source goes well with hotpot.

You did not poke your chopsticks into the bowl and leave them standing upwards!

ok, it was meant to read, I want to know whats not good Mike, so I know where not to eat, cant blame auto correct this time lol

That's why I love Thai food. It's already spicy and most places that I've been to have heat levels and they'll go up to maybe 5 and I usually ask if they can do at least 10. I've never been let down by the flavor or the spice!

use on all your foods that hot oil you love dude then your are fine and all you eating tasting as you like haha

I'm going to be in Manhattan this weekend...Koreatown to be exact. Any suggestions?

I like his shows but the ever present declaration of this is the most amazing dish, renders no differentiation between good, so, so and bad dishes. Also the use of mega chiles before he tastes the way the dish is supposed to be is disheartening..

Mike, we can already tell you lift waits, just look at the vain on the side of your head, you have an angry face.

I don't know about not showing food you don't like, it was very entertaining watching your reactions to stinky tofu.

I'd like to see the videos of the places you don't like. Then I could steer away from them.

I can't see your food!

If those people added ice cream to their menu, they would increase profits like crazy.

Hey mike, what is your top 3 favorite cuisines? except chinese food.

The restaurant that serve you chicharones in your boat noodle instead of crispy pork cheaped out on you.

it's funny cause i'm half thai and when i saw you put that chili in to your food i let out a little yelp and said R.I.P

there is a shop that specializes in this dish...it's on the top level of terminal 21 on sukhumvit, bkk. it's f*cking amazing...the customization options are insane, talking wagyu broth and braised wagyu beef or anything you would prefer. the taste is still in my brain and one of the many reason i go back to thailand

I like your channel. Don’t be a critic. Find the goodness in your consideration.

I like spice too but not at your level. It must be painful later when you have to go to the bathroom yikes!

pigs blood and flour. bloodpudding

Bruh, blood cubes and blood sausages...foodies' dark chocolate.

I'm famaliar with beef meatballs too. Frim spaghetti.hahaha. peace...

Speaking of blood, have you ever tried black pudding?

i swear, vampires exist somewhere. those blood centers seem to try to bleed you dry!

Actually those seasonings are for the noodle (not for sieuw mei) hihi.

Lol! Your face turned red for a second after you tasted the soup after adding the spice.

my tummy started aching after he dumped all the chili in the soup.... ayayayay

กินเผ็ดกว่าคนไทยหลายคนมาก 2ช้อนเลยหร่า ใจถึงจริงๆๆ

I enjoyed this video..BUT could you please say "Definitely" a few hundred times more. definetly definetly definetly......

Thai boat noodles are delicious and hearty.

The Thai don't fool around when it comes to spice, hot spice.

It's raining here in Mn I'm planning to cook boat noodles.

mike....how about a little girl ghost, covered in blood, chasing you with a needle? the imagery! lol

hey mike chen, why not try hmong food? come to twin cities MN

Yea I feel you on what your saying about Shaomai. it's usually like a log of meat and it's kind of strange. those look amazing

blood soup with meat.. a vampires heaven...

how does he even taste anything with that much spice???

i won't do 2 spoons. you'er crazy, man.

i want to know whats not good mie, so i km=now where not to eat.

What flavor is "fragrant" . please help...

In Thailand, it's not unusual for people to eat 3 or more small bowls of boat noodles. They are small portions, but only cost the equivalent of $0.50 or less per bowl. That was a relatively JUMBO bowl you had. Really one of Thailand's iconic dishes...

u look like the middle kid from fresh off the boat.

It's the kind of pain you enjoy... hahaha

love love love thai boat noodles..

Blood soup with vinegar is da bomb

So sad this place in Manhattan has closed down 😭

Boat noodles is up there with menudo as my favorite soup. If your gonna try it, find a place that makes it with the blood. It's just not the same otherwise. I personally like Lao style papaya salad because it's more funky with shrimp paste and fermented fish sauce

Does anyone else think he looks like Jackie Chan?

what is the name and address for this place?

There are muslim version of thai boat noodle thry use coconut powder instead of blood and it's delicious

Have you ever tried Bun Bo Hue? It's a Vietnamese spicy beef noodle soup. My personal favourite. It's a must if you like spicy!!!

the chili doesn't look that spicy LOl

Lol, I was waiting for the punch from the dried chilli powder... You should have listened XP Thai chillies are the bomb!

I love your video I watch all your video in beyond science so i went here to watch

2 spoon fulls!! Dang lol tbh I've never had any type of Asian soup. I'm really craving it now ! Any recommendations for a beginner ? I love spice tho

i'm worried that he'll get diverticulitis or ulcer when he's older. I bet the inside of mike's colon is literally glittered with chili flakes stuck to the walls.

I think you overdid it with the heat Mike

I'm Thai and even though I cannot / have not tasted this dish at that place, I can guarantee you that the flavors are authentic and legit just judging by the way they serve the condiments, that little metal cup for water, the various toppings on your soup, the fact the put fried garlic on your dumplings and that they serve thai milk tea.

You need a camera man

I will serve you gobar bhat

I remember getting that same dish for my 19th birthday meal. Every year I get that soup instead of a birthday cake :D delish !

hell drink a bottle hot oil before you start eating hehe

omg too much chilly!

awww no long shot of the actual food?
