Thailand Mexican Food!! Road trip to Ubon อุบลราชธานี 

The music is very soothing, nice. I remember seeing two young western women in Bangkok standing at a pedestrian crossing shouting and waving their fists at cars/motorcycles because they simply would not stop for them! They might still be there! Thanks guys

Stellar video,as always👍😉👌😉👌👌👌👌👌👍👍👍👍👍👍

Hi Chuck and Paige,that Mexican food looked amazing and I bet tasted good too.Nice to see Paige meet an old friend that she hadnt seen for 10 years trying some Mexican food. The temple looked calm,tranquil,nice to walk around and, see the monks doing their daily tasks taking care of the temples.I like the Thai music you play Chuck whilest driving and sometimes you play when showing us around,I will have to look for Thai music on youtube and see if I can perhaps find some tracks to listen too. Thanks guys again for another good video,take care as always,catch you in the next video. Sawadee kap,kop kun kap.☺👍👍

What a beautiful temple and park. I'm not really big on Mexican food, but you made all of this look delicious!

That was a really cool Temple and a Fantastic looking meal! Thanks for sharing Chauffeur Chuck and Navigator Paige

Thanks Chuck, Always interesting videos .

I liked ubon,, there is so much to see and do,, you can never get bored

Mexican food is so good! Nice video Chuck!

when I first started watching you channel I had a epic catch up on all your videos, they are awesome chuck and Paige, keep on doing what you do, you inspire me to more with my channel which is just starting (92 subscribers) a long way to go, again thank you for what you do

I had some great Mexican food for my birthday last week. Safe travels my friends.

55555 Paige really proud of you saying Thai correctly getting gas! I always enjoy your interactions!

Beautiful Thai ladies in the kitchen. Arroy mak mak kup! I've been fusing Thai with Mexican cooking in Texas' Texmexithai.

Thanks once again for sharing your travels with us Chuck and Paige. I miss Thailand so much and your videos help me bridge the gap between trips there. Bring on the next video!

Thanks for taking us on the trip. Chuck, where do you get all your Issan music from?

Nice vdo, your videos do bring smiles. Ubon is where I stay when in Thailand..

I love how they have different flavored chips to reflect the taste of the people ..I cant help but think how salty egg flavor would not go over well in the USA😀

Hi Chuck & Paige, I’m not sure Soi Mafia we’re pleased to see you go but I enjoyed the drive down to Ubon Ratchasima, loved the temple, cool resort and awesome Mexican food. ‼️. Nice for Paige to keep in touch with friends. Best wishes to you both, Anthony. 🙏🏻

"I'm not getting on that." 😂😂 I feel ya, brother! 😂👍

Awesome video as always.. And that Mexican food looked soooo delicious! I quess I need to make a detour next time and try it.. Stay safe and big love from Sweden 🇸🇪 ❤️ 💕 ❤️

The Mexican food looks good. Thanks Chuck

We really enjoyed the variety of things in this video. It's fun to try to translate as you're speaking Thai. Really helps as a refresher.

Thank you for another great road trip and for stopping at the temple. I love it when you show Thai history and temples. The food videos along with the driving/shopping are excellent as well. You have shown me so much for my trip down south for the month of November this year. However when l retire in two years, Issan district is were l will visit first. P.S. Love the thai back ground music when you drive

Hey chuck. We live in idaho, 4 kids. We have a "tankless" hot water heater for the house. It's exactly like that, but its in the basment on the wall and supplys the whole house with hot water. WAY WAYYYY more efficient.

Oh Chuck your breaking my heart with that Mexican food!

Construction scaffolding in SE Asia blows my mind. And I love the little Asian water heaters. You get hot water immediately, and there's no tank to replace every few years. Beautiful temple. The stuiffed jalapenos look great.

Throwing a shout out to Max’s Bistro on Koh Chang with taco Tuesday! Super good. Max is a smart dude too. Great conversation.

What a coincidence. I was also in room 4 all last week lol. When you take your bike ride to Ubon I have a farang friend in khueng nai. Its the halfway point from yesothon to ubon. He has Bee phamarcy . You can take a rest stop there lol. and also there is an amazing temple near ubon city. One of the most beautiful in isaan called Wat Sirindhorn Wararam. its east of the sirindorn lake. up on a hill with amazing views also.The back side glows in the dark after sunset..very cool ..... I wish I would have tried that hamburger place out

Hi Chuck, - 50 years ago (1969), I was stationed in Korat and had the opportunity to visit for several days on temporary duty to the air base in Ubon, I do have some 35mm slides that I need to dig out and review so I can figure out if any of the places I visited still are there. As always, I enjoy your near daily videos.

If I were to find Mexican food like that in Thailand, I would be super excited.

The more dragon heads they have the more important the temple is. It is a very beautiful temple!

Being born and raised in Calif I love Mex food. I can even cook some pretty good for a gringo lol. My God son's mother and sister make the best Mex food. Their parties always have tons of good food and laughter :)

Hey Chuck n Paige..like ur advice on the hot water heater. I see that u guys are using a knife n fork lol. I definitely will go with my thai gf n try this Mexican restaurant . I'm adjusting to the Isan thai food okay , but i craving for any western food , only KFC in Suwannaphum. I'm also suprise to not see any "Stop signs " here. However, i see that thai's manage okay that way. I think u should do a short video on the dogs 🐕 in Thailand. There everywhere n crossing the road like they owe it , not to mention sleeping in the middle of the road anytime of the day n night. Lol I really like to thank you n Paige for all your video's . Very informative advice , great traveling , n your veiw on the Thai culture n ppl is awesome.

the second temple you went to (the drive thru temple), I was there last year. Very nice place. But don't understand how we missed the Wat next to the river. :( I guess that'll be for the next trip. And ....Carnitas...not carne asada(beef) I guess you brain is in Thai-English mode now and you forgot your Spanish ;) Keep enjoying.....

Magnificient gardens at that temple.. so refreshing to look at. A very clean laid back kind of town with plenty of appeal. Awesome Mecican food must be one of the best in Thailand surely. Thanks for the kourney so far ... safe travels. Bushyboy Oz

great music!!

Im going to try it out next time im there. Mexican food is good

25:53 An old Buick Riviera. Another great vlog thanks as always.

As always, enjoyed video Chuck. My Thai wife will finally be joining me in Texas in July (long marriage Visa process). She can't wait to test the Mexican food.

Out of all the places you've taken us to in Isaan, I think Ubon is the one I'd like to live the most. Seems quite off the beaten path and not busy. But what I love most is all the trees. The place is just exploding with lushness and greenery. Korat or Khon Kaen would probably be more fun to visit for a few days but long term I'd prefer Ubon.

Great video as usual, I love the temples and gardens. The insta heat water heaters are becoming more popular in the states, especially the gas ones, the electric ones use quite a bit of electricity so they are not as efficient as the gas. The Mexican food looked delicious, but I need my negro Modelo with it. Thanks for sharing your beautiful vacation with us. Many blessings to you, Paige and family 🙏

HEY CHUCK AND PAIGE, I'M HOME SICK FOR THAILAND.. THEN YOU GO AND EAT MEXICAN FOOD. I SHOULD HAVE BEEN IN FLORIDA EATING MEXICAN FOOD BY NOW BUT TOOK A DETOUR IN PARIS FRANCE AND SPENT 6 DAYS IN THE HOSPITAL. ALMOST DIED. STILL IN FRANCE RECOVERING AND BACK ON A PLANE ON JUNE 1ST TO AMERICA. LOVED THE VIDEO AND WILL HAVE TO TRY THAT RESTAURANT WHEN I GET BACK TO THAILAND (HOME). LOL

I miss Mexican food sooo bad since I moved from Copenhagen out on the country side.. But at least we do have several good Thai food diners, eateries or whatever they are called in english :D Places to eat. And I get a chance to speak a few Thai words with the waitresses :D

The temple alone was worth the watch but the food looked great too

29.47 I think you have a drinking problem Chuckie !!! LOL

Very nice video! I'm from New Mexico and Texas now retired in Jakarta. Tacos al carbon and margaritas ... had my squirters goin!

When you started out with the big goober on the windshield. I thought the word of the day would be 'bird turd' ! I guess you were distracted but at 25:50 I'd have stopped the truck in the middle of the road to check out the (1971?) Boattail Buick Riviera! That's a rare enough bird in the USA much less Ubon Thailand! I hope the Jalapenos didn't give you Montezuma's Revenge.

Went there in 2006, probably changed a bit. stayed 50 km out of town.

Chuck, that is not carne asada, that is “carnitas” which is a type of fried pork. Carne asada is from beef only Great videos, it is really nice traveling along with you and Page in beautiful Thailand. Please keep me posted regarding the cruise to Mexico next year. It is kind of funny but I feel you guys like part of my family. Keep up that great job!!

What sort of place is that?. No leo in the fridge.

Pedestrian Right-of Way, by my experience, if you step off the curb in most US cities, the pedestrian has the right-of-way. If you do it in Chicago, LA, or NYC, you pretty much put your life in your hands.Beautiful Temple, but like anywhere in Thailand, they are all very ornate.At about 25:51, pretty cool '72 Boattail Buick Riviera, hard to find a decent one here in the states.

Wow! A boat tail Riviera at 25:50.. Probably the only one in South East Asia.

The car parked on the side of the road at 25:50 in the video looked like a Bat Mobile :) very nice but I bet hot during their summer

All that food looked soooo good....Chuck, How could you leave all that. Tip of the day, You don't leave good food to find good food lol

Love Mexican food. I wonder where he gets the jalapenos. Cant find any here in Rayong but I do know they grow them up north. I tried to grow them but it's too hot here I guess.

I think you are correct about the economy in Ubon but it is growing. I have noticed many changes in the last five years. I have also visited Udon many times.

Dam that food makes me hungry some year I stop by

25:50 A Buick Riviera about 1970 or so??

A bonus word of the day in Spanish!

🤗🤗😋

👍

So true about Udon Thani it attracts some scary foreigners . Any place that has the foreign girly bars you are only going to attract the worst of the worst. I stay clear of all the cities that have foreign bars. What was the music you played while at the temple? really beautiful

Chuck, how far is it from your place to Udon Thani Airport?

I actually bought an LP gas instant water heater while in Ecuador. I saved about 90% but did get questioned at the airport, lol.

How do you say "New wood doesn't burn, does it?" in Thai? Ive heard that these words in English all sound pretty similar to each other in Thai.

When you went through the police roadblock, what are they looking for? I'm sure it's hard to get great Mexican food in Thailand. I live in Phoenix Arizona, the home of the best and cheapest Mexican food in America!

Nice Riviera or Grand Prix 25:50.

Chuck. Your missing the sour cream on your creation LOL:

Do you get to pick what commercials are run on your videos time ? Who picks the commercials RU-vid ?

Hi love ur videos i got question ur wife is quite all time in ur videos

ill take the horse or the motorcycle 💖

“Let’s go for a drive” says the man who just spent a chunk of the day driving. Hahahaha!! Oh, and they now have water heaters similar to the ones you have in the bathroom. They call them “on demand” hot water heaters. We don’t have one but I imagine they would help keep the power bill down.

Ubon Ratchathani guys

Sweet '71 Riv @ 25:50

Beautiful temple grounds. As a Buddhist, I look very much forward to visiting Thai Buddhist temples. I’m only familiar with Tibetan style temples.

The Lays Chili Squid chips are a miracle of modern flavor technology!

Where have you found this irritating music? Those with the guitarr is like a LSD trip on acid

Kee, like "shit" ?

Nachos is a US thing.. Chili con queso.. definitely not a mexican thing

Certain words should be avoided, I think you just taught one, no wonder Paige smiled. Owned a Suzuki Jeep one time, pulled into filling station says Tem Tank and after paying car stalled as we pulled away. The lad had filled with Diesel not gas. As an old mech you know not killer problem, putting diesel in a petrol motor be big problem if gas into a diesel motor. Used an electric water heater in CM, we need 6,500 kw for the water gets very cold of a night, during our cool season. Never known anyone Thai or Frang drink tap water, bottle water only. I am convinced our Thai hosts have a points scoring system for wasting pedestrians. In UK if a pedestrian places one foot onto the Black White striped Pedestrian Crossing they own it, been like that since the 1930’s, when the first where established by a minister name of Belisher, Belisher Crossings they where know as. Udorn had the massive US military based and Voice of America Radio Station hence a large presence of US folk, understand it has/had a black site from the days of your King George II. Best Mexican in CM is Miguel’s, not an expert but he has never let me down, and been a while since I tried the Margarita Station in Angeles City where I went one year to escape Songkran in CM. Looked like a good spread, must remember if I am ever down there. John
