- We're back for part two of our Worth It Taiwan series. 00:00
Today, we're doing soup. 00:02
- Taiwan style. 00:04
It's amazing 'cause it's so hot in Taiwan, 00:06
and yet, they love their soup here. 00:08
- It's eaten for breakfast, lunch and dinner, 00:10
so many great dishes to try. 00:12
But before we get there, 00:13
Steven where are we? 00:15
- We are here at the Jingzaijiao Tile-paved Salt Fields. 00:16
Is that right Inga? 00:19
- Jingzaijiao. 00:21
- Historically one of the earliest 00:22
salt-producing areas of Taiwan. 00:23
Ocean water comes in, the sun evaporates it, 00:25
and you're left with salt. 00:28
Speaking of salty liquids. 00:29
- Sweat? 00:32
- No. - Oh. 00:33
- We're doing soup. 00:34
- Today on Worth It, 00:35
we're going to be trying three Taiwanese soups 00:35
at three drastically different price points 00:37
to find out which one is the most worth it at its price. 00:39
- It's so windy. 00:41
- The typhoon just passed. 00:42
- We're heading a little bit north of the city of Tainan 00:43
to where, Inga? 00:46
- We're going to Chiayi to have some fish soup 00:47
at Lin Cong Ming Yu Tang. 00:49
- Lin is my last name, and cong ming is smart, 00:50
so we're just going to, like, the smart version of me 00:54
fish place. - Oh wow. 00:57
That'll be a extra special treat. 00:59
(jazzy music) 01:01
- Taiwan is very hot. 01:03
- Yes. 01:04
- [Steven] Soup is a very hot food. 01:05
Why do Taiwanese people love soup so much? 01:06
Taiwan was a poor place. 01:08
It's easier to feel full adding soup to the meal. 01:10
We've been serving this soup for the past 60 years, since my grandfather's time. 01:13
What's special about this is we cook 100 servings in one go. 01:18
The taste can only be acquired by using such big amounts of ingredients. 01:21
The essence of the abundant ingredients is condensed in one bowl of soup. 01:25
- What kind of fish is in the soup? 01:30
We mainly use silver carp and salmon in our soup. 01:32
Silver carp is a native Taiwanese river fish. 01:36
Our salmon is imported and it's quite popular among gourmets. 01:38
Our broth base is made with pork bone and water, cooking from 8 a.m. until 9 p.m. 01:44
Meanwhile, preparing the rest of the ingredients. 01:54
Napa cabbage 01:58
Garlic 01:58
Onion 01:59
Scallion 02:00
Non-GMO tofu 02:01
Next step is chopping up the fish and deep-frying them. 02:02
Why is the fish fried and then added afterwards? 02:10
There was no refrigerating to preserve the fish back then in Taiwan. 02:14
My grandpa opted for deep- frying to dehydrate the fish. 02:19
It also helps to absorb the broth when submerged in the soup. 02:23
I noticed that customers can come back with their bowls 02:28
and get more broth. 02:30
It's a tradition of the restaurant. 02:31
We strive to treat our customers like family. You should eat to your heart's content at home. 02:33
It's also thanks to the continuous support of our customers that we can cook in such great quantity. 02:37
That allows a continuous flow of soup for everyone to share. 02:42
(cash register dings) 02:46
- Ooh! 02:48
- Oh... 02:49
Yay... 02:50
(Steven speaks in foreign language) 02:52
- What's the plate for? 02:53
- For the fish bone. 02:54
- Oh, fish bones. - Oh... 02:56
- Is this your beer? 02:57
- Yes, it's my fish beer. 02:58
- Cheers, Steven. 03:00
(bottles clink) 03:01
(trumpet music) 03:02
Look at that logo. 03:04
Fish soup beer, I am blown away. 03:06
- Cheers in Mandarin is... 03:09
(Steven speaks in foreign language) 03:11
Is that right? 03:13
(Andrew speaks in foreign language) 03:14
- Okay, that was very unexpected. 03:17
Wow, again. 03:21
- Wow, a thousand times. 03:22
- This is very refreshing. 03:25
- It is. 03:26
- Give me one word. 03:27
- Wow. 03:29
- [Steven] So this is the marquis piece right here. 03:31
I'm just gonna bite into this. 03:33
(Andrew groans in satisfaction) 03:36
- This is like a dish that dares you 03:37
to want something else. 03:39
You want vegetables? 03:40
Boom, we got it. 03:41
You want tofu? 03:42
Forget about it. 03:42
You want pork? 03:43
We got it right here. 03:44
You want fish? Boom. 03:45
Fry it? We can do it. 03:46
- Yeah, when she was listing the ingredients, 03:47
it was just like the NBA All-Star Game. 03:49
And here we have the tofu! 03:51
Next up, cabbage! 03:54
- Y'all ready for this? 03:55
(Steven laughs) 03:57
Chiayi is also very famous for turkey meat sauce over rice. 03:57
Customers always get the combo of turkey rice and fish head soup in here. 04:00
Turkey rice. 04:05
I love how this soup, with all of this stuff, 04:06
they were like, 04:09
"Nah, you still need some turkey rice." 04:09
- That's right. 04:11
If there's one thing we learned here in Taiwan, 04:12
you cannot leave a restaurant hungry. 04:13
They will assault you with food. 04:15
In the most lovingly way possible. 04:17
- Yeah. 04:18
(upbeat music) 04:19
Mm, it's just turkey meat and fat on a bowl of rice. 04:21
It's great. 04:25
If you weren't an adventurous eater, 04:26
this would seem like a scary bowl of food, 04:28
but it all just kind of blends into this big soft hug. 04:31
I don't know. 04:34
It tastes nice. 04:35
It's a kind taste. 04:36
- That's exactly how you say it in Mandarin though. 04:38
- Really? - Good eat, right? 04:40
Good taste. 04:41
(Inga speaks in foreign language) 04:42
- Means good eat, good taste, yeah. 04:44
- Let's spread the kindness. 04:47
(Andrew slaps hand on table) 04:48
- Once I finish this meal, 04:49
it will be so long until I get to eat this again. 04:50
And that makes me sad. 04:53
- I know, this whole trip is actually just-- 04:54
- It's sad. - The worst. 04:56
(Inga speaks in foreign language) 05:01
- That soup was incredible. 05:05
In the rainbow of soup to stew, 05:08
this was somewhere in the middle in like the-- 05:11
- Stoup? - Stoup 05:14
section, yeah. - There it is! 05:15
- So before we get to our next soup, 05:16
we decided to get some treats 05:18
at the Garden Night Market in Tainan. 05:19
- [Steven] This is my favorite treat at Night Market. 05:21
It is a peanut roll with ice cream and cilantro. 05:24
- [Andrew] What? 05:28
Cilantro in a dessert? 05:28
I guess it makes sense, 05:30
we put mint in desserts, 05:30
and that's just 05:32
another green leaf. - Oh, I didn't even 05:33
think of that. 05:34
Cheers? - Cheers. 05:35
- [Steven] Huh? 05:40
Huh? - Oh. 05:41
Huh? - Oh. 05:43
I like dessert cilantro. 05:44
So our next soup is actually going to be hot pot. 05:46
- Hot pot fact! 05:49
- Archeologists have found pots from two thousand years ago 05:50
that may have been used to make an early iteration 05:53
of hot pot. 05:56
These were found in the Anhui province of China. 05:57
- Wow, old hot pot. 06:00
Dude, hot pot for me, 06:02
every Thanksgiving in the Lin family, 06:03
we always, always, always eat hot pot. 06:05
- It would make sense that soup was one 06:08
of the oldest things humans ate. 06:09
- Yeah just water, throw some stuff in there and eat it. 06:11
- Tomorrow, hot pot. 06:14
Inga where are we going? 06:17
- We are going to A Yu Niu Rou Sha Sha Guo 06:18
to eat some beef soup. 06:20
- That's what I'm talking about. 06:22
Beef soup. 06:23
Get that hot pot, throw some beef in there, 06:24
throw some soup in there, throw some veggies in there. 06:26
Whatever you want, we're gonna eat it. 06:28
(Steven coughs) 06:30
Excuse me. 06:31
I choked on a peanut. 06:32
Why do you love hot pot so much? 06:35
Life is perfect while you enjoy this pot of delicious broth and beef. 06:37
Room temperature beef shabu-shabu is known for its freshness. 06:42
The cattle are raised in the mountains all over Taiwan. 06:46
Then butchered in the government-run slaughterhouse in the Shanhua District of Tainan. 06:50
The beef comes straight from there after being butchered and inspected. 06:53
- How often do you get the deliveries? 06:56
Every meal. 06:58
Every meal? 06:59
For example, the beef served now during lunch was butchered this morning. 07:00
Therefore the beef has this natural sweetness and QQ (chewy) texture. 07:02
We saw that it arrived by taxi. 07:08
Is it always come by taxi? 07:10
We paid the cab to pick it up because we're too busy in the store. 07:12
That's so cool, the meat takes a cab to every meal. 07:17
(everybody laughing) 07:20
It takes about 6-8 hours to make the broth. 07:21
The first layer of ingredients is beef bones. 07:25
Second layer is stacks of beef brisket. 07:26
We use about 264 pounds of brisket for the broth. 07:30
Topping the pot with one bag of vegetables and fruits each. 07:32
There's also vegetables in the dish already? 07:37
The vegetables in the small pot is to bring out the taste of the broth. 07:39
Cabbage is the star of the pot. 07:42
The vegetables really complement the broth and make the hot pot perfect. 07:43
For someone who's never had hot pot before, 07:49
how do you eat it? 07:51
Dip the beef in the boiling soup around 3 times/5 seconds and it's ready to eat. 07:52
I always recommend eating without condiments first. 07:56
For the second bite, try the beef with a bit of our special sauce. 07:59
My husband is in charge of extracting the prime cut out of the beef. 08:05
The freshly butchered beef is quite soft and requires great skills with the knife. 08:11
He is so good with the knife! Every piece comes out with the same thickness! 08:16
You also have this pork rice. 08:21
It's free for all the customers? 08:23
My husband is a generous guy. 08:25
He wants the customers to have the rice to go with the delicious beef shabu-shabu. 08:27
Perfect combination! 08:30
(everybody laughing) 08:32
(cash register dings) 08:34
(jazzy music) 08:35
(Andrew and Steven speak in foreign language) 08:38
We've eaten a lot of beef on this show, 08:39
but this is some of the prettiest beef I've ever seen. 08:41
The color is ridiculous. 08:44
Cold-brewed oolong. 08:46
This is one of the coolest things. 08:48
It's like, tea snow globe. 08:49
And it's got the net in the-- 08:51
- [Steven] No way! 08:52
- [Andrew and Steven] Cheers. 08:54
- Mm. 08:57
- [Andrew] You wanna start with this one? 08:58
- [Steven] Let's do it, the shoulder cap. 08:59
- Cheers, Steven. 09:00
- Whoa. 09:02
- [Andrew] One, two, 09:03
three. - Wow. 09:06
Going in. 09:07
One. 09:08
Two, oh no! 09:10
(Andrew laughs) 09:11
- This smells incredible. 09:12
- Cheers. 09:14
- Oh, that's nice beef. 09:16
- We're just getting to eat really nice steak. 09:18
- Yeah. - With soup. 09:20
- And you get to eat it the second it's done cooking. 09:21
- Mm! 09:24
- I'm gonna try the same piece of meat this time, 09:25
but now dip it. 09:27
Shabu, shabu. 09:28
Ooh. 09:30
- Shabu. 09:33
- That rocks. - Can I get in there? 09:35
- Yeah. 09:37
You should absolutely. - All right. 09:38
One. 09:39
Two. 09:40
- Whoa. - Three. 09:41
- Like you're baptizing the meat. 09:43
(Steven cheers) 09:44
- [Andrew] The dip is awesome. 09:46
- Okay. 09:47
That's doing it right. 09:51
- There's two great ways to enjoy beef. 09:52
You either cook it very briefly 09:55
or you cook it a really long time. 09:57
This is the best of both worlds. 09:58
The quick cook beef and also the super long cook beef. 10:00
- 'Cause the soup is a 10 to 12 hour, 10:03
steeped in beef bone soup. 10:06
- But enough about beef. 10:07
Pork break. - Pork break. 10:08
(Andrew and Steven groan in satisfaction) 10:11
- At first this did not make sense to me. 10:13
But it's because the beef is so precious, 10:14
it breaks up the flow, 10:17
so I don't just crush my plate of beef all in one bite, 10:18
like I want to. 10:22
- Well, and also, this bowl of rice is bringing me 10:23
more comfort than my body pillow. 10:26
- What? 10:28
- I've had the same one for over 10 years. 10:29
It's hard to sleep without it. 10:31
- [Adam] Change pillows 10:33
more frequently. - Wow. 10:34
- No, I wash it. 10:35
- That explains a lot about you. 10:37
- It's like a teddy bear. 10:38
We all have that, like, item. 10:39
- Yeah but now mine is in my parents' attic, 10:41
because I stopped sleeping with it after the age of eight. 10:43
- Why would you give up something that's so comfortable? 10:46
- All right, we're gonna have the broth now. 10:49
We've finally reached the soup part of the meal. 10:51
Ooh, the smell though. 10:54
- Cheers. 10:57
- Ooh, that is nice. 11:00
It's not so beefy, actually. 11:03
It's got like-- 11:06
- Fruity flavor. 11:07
- Yeah. - Like, apples or something. 11:08
This is the best way to close out this meal. 11:10
- Yeah, this nice gentle landing. 11:12
It's like when you have a delicious sauce 11:15
and you want a piece of bread to mop it up 11:17
to get all of the sauce. 11:20
Here, you just drink the sauce. 11:21
(patrons talking in background) 11:23
- Hot pot. 11:30
- That hot pot was so good. 11:31
Okay, so we've come to Taichung for our final soup. 11:33
But before we have that, we're gonna have some cold drinks. 11:37
- That's right. 11:40
We're going to Ten Ren, 11:41
one of my favorite places in the States, so. 11:42
About to be having it here in Taiwan, 11:44
where it's actually from. 11:45
- So we've got oolong tea, and a black tea boba. 11:46
Confession time. 11:49
I'm not the biggest fan of boba. 11:51
- That's fine. 11:53
- I just, eating while drinking, I don't-- 11:54
- Isn't that what soup is? 11:56
- Soup is drinking while eating. 11:57
It's completely different, don't get it twisted. 11:59
- Cheers. 12:01
(glasses clink) 12:02
Mm. 12:04
- That's what I like. 12:05
Unsweetened, nice ice tea. 12:06
That's all I want. 12:08
Instead of another soup fact, 12:09
we're actually gonna have a boba fact. 12:10
- [Steven] Boba fact. 12:12
- Boba tea was invented in the 1980s in Taichung. 12:13
- Oh, some genius out here put boba and milk tea together. 12:16
There're controversies around 12:20
who actually invented boba milk tea. 12:21
There's multiple reports of different people, so. 12:23
- Interesting. 12:26
We're now on our way to Gubami, 12:26
where we're going to see Chef Chen 12:28
to try her beef noodle soup. 12:30
- [Steven] The iconic dish of Taiwan. 12:32
- We've had it a few times off-camera so far, 12:34
just for our crew meals and such, 12:37
and it's usually a very inexpensive dish. 12:38
Five or six US dollars equivalent. 12:40
But today's is going to be a little more deluxe. 12:42
- It's gonna cost around 30 US dollars, 12:45
which is a lot for beef noodle soup. 12:47
But it's gonna be really good. 12:49
- Gubami is beef noodles in Taiwanese dialect. 12:52
- Why do you think Taiwan loves 12:56
their beef noodle soup so much? 12:57
- It's fast, and also it's luxury. 12:59
You have a big bowl of noodle soup and meat. 13:02
I never really see restaurants can do all three good. 13:05
I wanna do things the best, 13:08
so when I do noodles, I want to find out the best formula. 13:10
We test with different flours 13:13
for almost, six months I would say. 13:15
We want the noodles to be al dente in the middle, 13:17
but also the outside can absorb a little bit the soup. 13:19
We use the Japanese wagyu beef shank 13:23
and also we have a condiment of smoked bone marrow 13:25
and on top of it, we have some shabu shabu of the beef shank 13:28
to give two different textures of the meat. 13:31
- What is your background in cooking? 13:33
Like, where did you come from? 13:34
- I learned in Paris and I traveled to States a little bit, 13:37
and then I come back. 13:39
I started my French restaurant 10 years ago. 13:40
Very fine dining, it was my dream restaurant. 13:43
But it's in Taichung, it's very weird. 13:46
I think Taiwan people, they like something casual. 13:48
I want to do something smaller and now I have the bar, 13:50
I have noodle shop. 13:53
I always just trying to do something I like. 13:54
(Chef Chen laughs) 13:56
It looks like very refined, but I didn't do it on purpose. 13:57
I just trying to make it good, and then it becomes this way. 13:59
- [Steven] Mm. 14:02
(cash register dings) 14:02
- Look at this. 14:04
That's not soup. 14:05
We have tofu skin, cooked in some of the beef stock. 14:06
This is the radish with lemon and olive oil. 14:10
Zucchini, confit in goose fat. 14:13
Some kind of green bean and beef mushroom deliciousness. 14:15
- I know there's a lot of delicious stuff in front of us, 14:19
I cannot wait for the soup right now, 14:21
but I will be patient. 14:24
(jazzy music) 14:26
Whoa, whoa, whoa. 14:29
Hold on the soup. 14:30
(Andrew laughs) 14:31
That is damn good. 14:32
(Andrew laughs) 14:33
- [Andrew And Steven] Green bean. 14:34
(jazzy music) 14:36
- Oh, I did not think that was gonna taste like that. 14:38
- What? 14:41
(Andrew laughs) 14:42
- It's a smoky, porky, green bean. 14:44
Tofu skin. 14:46
- That looks super juicy. 14:47
And meaty. 14:49
Cheers. 14:50
- That's the best one. 14:52
- No, this is the best one. 14:53
- No, no, no, no, no, no. 14:54
- [Steven] Zucchini. 14:55
- Confit in goose fat. 14:56
(jazzy music) 14:57
Every time I eat something green, 15:00
I expect it to taste like a crisp vegetable. 15:01
Instead it tastes like a fatty animal. 15:04
This is awesome. 15:06
- Wow, finally the beef. 15:07
(jazzy music) 15:09
- Oh! 15:12
- I'm ready to eat some beef noodle soup right now. 15:13
- Ooh, thank you. 15:16
All right. - Smell this thing! 15:17
- Oh... 15:21
- I can't believe this. 15:21
I can't believe this. 15:23
- Yeah. - I can't believe this. 15:24
- [Andrew] This is a $30 bowl of soup. 15:25
- Broth cheers. 15:27
(jazzy music) 15:28
(Andrew exhales) 15:31
- Okay. 15:32
- I didn't think a beef taste could be refreshing. 15:33
- Yeah, shabu shabu? 15:35
- Yeah, let's do the choice cut meat on top. 15:36
(jazzy music) 15:40
- Wow. 15:43
- Very flavorful beef, okay. 15:45
- Jeez! 15:47
That is good. 15:49
I literally just ate a pastrami sandwich in one bite. 15:51
- Yeah. 15:53
- And the juices of the soup just bursting out. 15:54
Inga have some. 15:57
Come, come, come. 15:58
- This is so good. 16:04
(slurping sounds) 16:06
- Those are great noodles! 16:09
Springy, chewy. 16:11
Look at that beef. 16:13
Wow. 16:15
Holy crap, I didn't think it was going to be that soft. 16:16
What? - Yeah. 16:19
(crew laughing in the background) 16:22
- It's like softer than taffy. 16:23
Softer than, it's somewhere... 16:26
- You gotta be kidding me! 16:30
- Okay, let's add the bone marrow. 16:31
This is like buttering already buttered bread. 16:33
(slurping sounds) 16:36
(Steven exhales) 16:38
- Gah, whoa. 16:39
Including all the steaks we've eaten, 16:40
this beef, best beef taste I've ever tasted. 16:41
And the best part? 16:44
You get to eat noodles the whole time. 16:45
It's like usually a steak, 16:47
you're just eating steak. 16:48
Pretty fun, but okay. 16:49
Noodles the whole time? 16:51
(both laugh) 16:53
- Yeah, I've had a lot of beef noodle soup before, 16:54
and it's never bad, it's always satisfying and comforting. 16:55
But this one is like, 16:59
a boy was born in Akron, Ohio, 17:01
awarded him the chosen one in an ESPN magazine 17:02
when he was 14, 17:04
turned out to be a great basketball player. 17:05
- Who is this? 17:06
- LeBron James. 17:07
- Oh, goddammit. 17:08
Every time. 17:09
- Gubami. 17:10
- One of the best soup dishes I've ever had, 17:11
one of the best noodle dishes I've ever had, 17:14
one of the best beef dishes I've ever had. 17:16
- I like what you did there. 17:17
- Before we get to our Worth It winners, 17:18
Andrew, what was your favorite thing that was not a soup 17:19
in this episode? 17:22
- The craft beer at Smart Fish. 17:23
- [Steven] Oh. 17:25
- I never thought I'd see a beer with a fish soup logo. 17:26
What was your favorite non-soup thing? 17:29
- Beef taxi. 17:31
There's not even a escort. 17:32
Just beef in the taxi, beef out the taxi. 17:34
- Okay Steven, which soup was most worth it to you? 17:37
- I thought Smart Fish soup was gonna be my winner 17:40
when we ate there, 17:42
I thought the beef hot pot was gonna be my winner 17:43
when we ate there, 17:44
but Gubami is my Worth It winner today. 17:45
So beefy, just so much thought put into it. 17:48
- My Worth It winner goes to Smart Fish. 17:52
- Oh. - Fish soup was crazy. 17:54
Truly one of the most unique dishes I've ever eaten. 17:56
- Inga and Annie? 17:59
- Gubami. 18:01
- Gubami. 18:02
- What? 18:03
Adam, who's your Worth It winner? 18:04
- [Adam] Gubami. 18:06
(Andrew sputters) (Inga laughs) 18:06
- I've never been so, 18:08
this is a Worth It first. - I win today! 18:09
- That's it for Worth It Taiwan soup. 18:10
We have one more episode in this miniseries coming up next. 18:12
Steven, what is it? 18:16
- Chicken! 18:17
(upbeat music) 18:17
We're in Taiwan! 18:29
We're back with a three-part mini-series. 18:31
Joining us on all of our episodes, 18:32
our friend, translator, 18:34
- [Andrew] Fellow Buzzfeed producer, 18:36
- Inga Lam! 18:37
- Taipei! (laughing) 18:38
- We're gonna be seeing some great modes of transportation, 18:40
some fun games, some tricks, some treats, 18:42
and some delights. 18:46
You know how you know we're in Taiwan? 18:47
The beautiful 101 Tower. 18:48
And because it's steamy, 18:50
which is perfect for the first food 18:51
that we're doing in our trip: dumplings, 18:53
a food that's often cooked with steam. 18:56
- Great transition. 18:57
Today on Worth It, we're gonna be trying three dumplings 18:58
at three drastically different price points to find out 19:00
which one is the most worth it at its price. 19:02
- I am so excited to do dumplings. 19:04
- So excited! 19:06
- I feel like we've been talking about this episode 19:07
since season one. 19:09
- One of my goals this trip is to brush up on my Mandarin 19:10
because I have the Mandarin skills of a four-year-old. 19:13
(Andrew chuckling) 19:15
My goal is to get it to a five-year-old 19:16
by the end of this trip. 19:18
- That's a very good goal. 19:18
- Thank you. - Yeah. 19:20
Dumpling Number One. 19:20
- We're going to see Ms. Liu in her restaurant 19:21
(Inga speaks in foreign language) 19:24
(Steven speaks in foreign language) 19:25
How's that? - Is that good? 19:26
- Good! - We're gonna get some 19:27
fifty-cent pan-fried dumplings. 19:28
And it's-- - Have we ever had a price 19:32
so low on Worth It? 19:33
- No, we haven't! 19:33
That is a drastic price point. 19:35
(Andrew laughing) 19:36
(high-spirited piano music) 19:37
You've been making dumplings for 30 years. 19:39
I'm just curious what you think makes the perfect dumpling. 19:41
(Ms. Liu speaks in foreign language) 19:44
- What types of buns do you serve here? 19:51
(Ms. Liu speaks in foreign language) 19:52
- And which one is your favorite? 20:00
(Ms. Liu speaks in foreign language) 20:01
(Steven speaks in foreign language) 20:03
(Ms. Liu speaks in foreign language) 20:04
(laughing) 20:08
(Ms. Liu speaks in foreign language) 20:09
- We've heard that the dough of your buns is very delicious. 20:20
What makes it so special? 20:22
(Ms. Liu speaks in foreign language) 20:23
How many should we have? 20:35
(Ms. Liu speaks in foreign language) 20:36
(Inga laughing) Oh, three? 20:38
- You know how you're actually in Taiwan? 20:40
- How? 20:42
- Dumplings. 20:43
- And motor scooter sounds. 20:44
- [Steven] It's a beautiful noise. 20:45
- So, not only are we having dumplings, 20:46
but we're also having... 20:48
- Soy milk. 20:49
So, we noticed you're actually making 20:50
your own soy milk here. 20:51
Can you tell us about how you guys make that? 20:52
(Ms. Liu speaks in foreign language) 20:54
Cheers. 21:02
Oh! 21:03
Jeez! - What? 21:05
I didn't know that's what soy milk's supposed to taste like. 21:06
Kinda like a peanut butter drink. 21:08
- Uh-huh. - Like that's how nutty 21:10
it tastes to me. 21:12
Inga, how's the soy milk? 21:12
- I'm like almost done with it. (laughing) 21:14
- Oh my gosh. - Really? 21:15
- I really like soy milk. 21:16
This is really good. 21:17
- It's like the first time I had full-fat milk. 21:18
- Oh, yeah, yeah. - You know? 21:22
Adam, try some soy milk. 21:23
(laughing) 21:27
- Yeah. - Okay. 21:28
- Let's get to the buns. - Let's get to the buns. 21:28
Pork, cabbage, chive. 21:30
Look at the bottom crust. 21:33
It's like a little, "Hi! I'm crispy." 21:35
(Steven laughing) 21:37
Cheers. 21:38
(groovy music) 21:39
(Steven laughing) 21:42
The dough is so good. 21:43
What was the term for chewy? 21:44
- QQ. 21:46
- QQ? - QQ? 21:47
Is that an actual term? 21:48
- Yeah. 21:48
- This is so QQ (Inga laughing) 21:49
- I don't know how to describe the weight of it but... 21:51
- It's pleasantly plump. 21:53
- Pleasantly plump. 21:54
- Okay, the pork bun. 21:56
(Steven chuckling) 21:59
(groovy music) 22:00
Oh. 22:02
- Whoa! 22:03
- That's my favorite. 22:04
Adam, you wanna take a bite? 22:05
- You know my problem with burgers? 22:08
- [Adam] Oh! 22:10
(Steven and Andrew laughing) 22:11
- You're playing a game of, like, Jenga and Tetris 22:11
as you're biting into it. 22:14
With the bun, you're not losing anything. 22:15
- Lastly, the cabbage. 22:17
I love the shape of this one. 22:18
It looks like a clam. 22:19
- This is 50 cents. 22:21
We just ate three dollars of food, by the way. 22:22
- Okay, this one might actually be my favorite. 22:25
Dammit! 22:27
(Steven laughing) 22:28
I don't live in Taiwan! 22:29
50 cents? 22:31
I don't even have to be hungry. 22:32
(Steven laughing) It's just, 22:33
it'll be foolish not to. 22:33
- The pleasure you get out of chewing really good 22:35
- Good dough. - Bread. 22:38
- Yeah. 22:39
- Oh my gosh. 22:40
- QQ! 22:40
- QQ! 22:41
I think you need to open this in America. 22:43
I can give you my address, just open up shop next to me 22:45
'cause I need to eat this on my way to work, please. 22:47
(Ms. Liu speaks in foreign language) 22:49
(Inga laughing) 22:51
(Steven speaks in foreign language) 22:52
(Inga laughing) 22:54
(Ms. Liu speaks in foreign language) 22:55
That was a dumpling. 22:58
Well, it's actually a bao, but bao's a dumpling. 23:00
- QQ is my new favorite food terminology. 23:02
It's quite warm here in Taiwan. 23:05
- It's very warm. - So, I think before 23:07
we have our next dumpling, we need a refreshing treat. 23:08
We're in Taiwan. 23:11
What kind of treat should we have? 23:12
- Shaved ice! 23:14
- [Andrew] We're going to Showa Ice. 23:16
- [Steven] The Chinese name is 23:18
(Inga speaks in foreign language) 23:20
(Steven speaks in foreign language) 23:21
(Inga speaks in foreign language) 23:23
(Steven speaks in foreign language) 23:24
(cheerful music) 23:25
- This looks awesome. 23:28
This is one of your favorite desserts, right? 23:29
- Not this specifically, - Yeah. 23:31
- But shaved ice in general. - Shaved ice generally. 23:32
- [Inga] So, there's two types of shaved ice here, 23:34
the classic mango chunks on top of milk shaved ice 23:36
and then chocolate shaved ice with whiskey. 23:38
It's really good, but it tastes really different. 23:40
- Ooh. - I'm going full mango. 23:42
- Oh, wow. 23:45
This texture is very surprising. 23:46
- Oh, the mango! 23:48
Inga, get in here and try this mango. 23:50
This is like Garden of Eden mango right here. 23:52
- This is so sweet. 23:57
(cheerful jazz music) 23:59
- Of course that tastes good. 24:02
You drink whiskey with ice? 24:02
- Yeah. - And chocolate. 24:04
Chocolate works. 24:05
We're eating a food that's cooked with steam, 24:06
and now we're eating ice. 24:08
So, we're just exploring all the, 24:10
I'm gonna call that the states of matter. 24:11
- Yeah. - Do we have any chemists 24:13
in the room? - Oh, excuse me. 24:14
- All right, chemist. 24:15
- Give me a fact! 24:16
- Dumpling fact! 24:17
It's not a dumpling fact. 24:18
- Oh? 24:19
- It's related to dumplings though. 24:20
Dumpling-related fact. 24:22
- Dumpling-related fact. 24:23
- Because most foods humans eat are soft, 24:24
the body and brain have learned to like the novelty 24:27
of an opposing texture, like crunch. 24:30
Even after all that effort to make a perfectly QQ dough, 24:32
it's still worth it to add the crunch on the bottom. 24:36
- Back to the perfect food, man. 24:39
- All right, we're off to our next dumpling spot. 24:40
- We're gonna go see Mr. Chen 24:43
in his steamed dumpling restaurant. 24:44
Inga, what's the name of it? 24:45
(Inga speaks in foreign language) 24:46
(Steven speaks in foreign language) 24:50
(Inga speaks in foreign language) 24:52
(Steven speaks in foreign language) 24:53
(Inga speaks in foreign language) 24:54
(Steven speaks in foreign language) 24:55
- Good work! 24:56
- Nice! 24:56
(lively piano music) 24:57
- How many dumplings do you think 24:59
your restaurant makes per day? 25:00
(Mr. Chen speaks in foreign language) 25:02
Wow. - A day. 25:09
- 5000 a day. 25:10
- And they're all made by hand. 25:10
(Mr. Chen speaks in foreign language) 25:11
- What makes a really great dumpling? 25:25
(Mr. Chen speaks in foreign language) 25:26
- When customers come here, are they only eating dumplings 25:42
or are they ordering other things as well? 25:44
(Mr. Chen speaks in foreign language) 25:46
(Inga speaks in foreign language) 25:48
(Mr. Chen speaks in foreign language) 25:49
So, we should order a few more things as well? 25:56
(Mr. Chen speaks in foreign language) 25:58
(laughing) 25:59
(Mr. Chen speaks in foreign language) 26:00
That's right. 26:05
(cash register dinging) 26:07
We've built out our meal with some extra stuff here. 26:08
- We have. - Let's dumpling it up. 26:10
- They make 5000 of these, 26:12
a literal army of dumplings 26:14
in one day. - Yeah. 26:15
It feels like I'm fighting an army of dumplings 26:16
with my mouth. 26:18
- Boom. 26:19
Dip. 26:20
(string music) 26:22
- That's incredible. 26:24
- Oh, wow. 26:25
- Dumplings I've had in the past, 26:26
once it's steamed, it becomes loose around the filling. 26:27
- Yeah. 26:30
- But these are tight and dense and still juicy inside. 26:31
- So juicy. 26:34
- Let's do a side dish break. 26:36
- [Steven] I vote century egg tofu madness. 26:37
- [Andrew] Yeah. 26:39
(Mr. Chen speaks in foreign language) 26:40
(Steven speaks in foreign language) 26:52
(Mr. Chen speaks in foreign language) 26:54
(laughing) 26:55
- Wow! 26:57
- Whoa. - Wow! 26:58
- [Steven] That's not what I was gonna do. 27:00
- [Andrew] Wow! (laughing) 27:01
- Okay. 27:02
- Yay! - Okay. 27:03
- Wow, (Steven speaks in foreign language) 27:04
- Do you know what I realized? 27:05
- Yeah. 27:06
- Egg, nature's dumpling. 27:07
(Steven laughing) 27:08
- Wow. - Whoo! 27:10
- Cheers, Steve. - Cheers. 27:11
To a hundred years. 27:13
Oh, yeah. 27:15
Hold that up, hold that up! 27:16
- Yeah, that's what the egg-- 27:18
- This is egg and you can see through it. 27:19
- It's very jelly. 27:20
- [Steven] All right, so, here we have 27:22
the vegetable dumpling. 27:23
- Watching them make these dumplings was like magic. 27:27
They closed their hands and when they open it, 27:30
there's a dumpling. 27:31
It's really like someone's doing a card trick 27:32
in front of your eyes. 27:34
- Fun fact. 27:35
This is actually Inga's grandmother's suggestion 27:36
of where to eat. - Really? 27:39
- Yeah, my grandma was the one 27:40
who recommended this place to me. 27:41
- [Andrew] Good recommendation. 27:43
- It's so QQ. (Andrew chuckling) 27:44
- Think about the amount of work 27:46
that's put into these dumplings and how cheap it is. 27:47
That is the ultimate magic trick. 27:49
(Inga laughing) 27:53
- My mouth's so full! 27:54
- That pork dumpling. 27:56
- Like a Korean spa. 27:57
- Like a dry-cleaned shirt 27:59
steamed to perfection. - Steamed to perfection. 28:01
- Our next dumpling is also going to be steamed. 28:03
We're having the soup dumpling. 28:06
- [Steven] The Xiao Long Bao. 28:08
- That's right. 28:09
But before we do that, we're going to have 28:10
another Taiwanese dessert treat. 28:11
- SunnyHills Pineapple Cake. 28:14
It's one of my, oh my God, 28:16
it's one of my favorite places. 28:17
(playful piano music) 28:19
(Inga speaks in foreign language) 28:21
- Please enjoy. 28:23
- So, every time you come here, 28:24
even if you don't buy anything, 28:25
they will give this to you, like a pineapple cake 28:26
with oolong tea. 28:29
- That's confidence. 28:30
That's, like, we know how good it is 28:31
because you're definitely gonna get it. 28:32
- Yes, and you will. 28:34
- Cheers. - Cheers. 28:35
- Cheers. 28:36
(playful piano music) 28:38
Ooh-long, right? - Good, right? 28:40
(laughing) - Golly. 28:41
- Pineapple cakes are really good. 28:43
Buttery and flaky on the outside, 28:45
and then you get that really fresh pineapple sweetness 28:46
and tartness. 28:50
- [Steven] Iconic. 28:50
- [Inga] Iconic. 28:51
- New York and cheesecakes. 28:52
Taiwan and pineapple cake. 28:54
- Yes, yes. - Or something like that? 28:55
- Yes. 28:57
Smell it. 28:58
- Hmm. 28:59
- [Inga] Right? 28:59
- Mm, okay, I see. 29:01
I get it, yeah. 29:03
I've never had pineapple jam-ified like this. 29:04
- So, you just pop the rest? 29:07
- Well, you might want to save to enjoy it 29:08
while you listen to this. 29:10
Dumpling fact! 29:12
(Steven laughing) Sorry. 29:13
- What is fact in Mandarin? 29:15
- Oh! 29:16
Fact in-- - Could you say dumpling fact? 29:17
(Inga speaks in foreign language) 29:18
- Doesn't Andrew do language better? 29:20
- Say that again? 29:21
- Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. 29:22
(Inga speaks in foreign language) 29:24
(Andrew speaks in foreign language) 29:26
(bleep) 29:27
(Steven speaks in foreign language) 29:29
(Andrew loudly laughing) 29:30
- In 2013 and 2014, chef-turned-writer 29:32
Christopher St. Cavish created a soup dumpling index, 29:35
measuring the thickness of the dough, 29:38
the soup volume, and the total weight of each individual 29:39
xiao long bao at 52 different restaurants. 29:42
This data was then calculated with the formula, 29:44
filling plus soup divided by thickness of skin 29:47
times a hundred to assign a score representing 29:50
the quality of structural engineering in xiao long bao. 29:53
- Look, quadratic formula was already hard enough. 29:55
All right, next stop. 29:58
We're going to a soup-er star-- 29:59
(Andrew laughing) - Oh! 30:02
- Soup dumpling spot, Din Tai Fung. 30:03
We're going to meet the bossman, Mr. Yang. 30:05
It originated here in Taiwan. 30:07
They, right now, at this very moment, 30:08
have 164 locations worldwide. 30:10
That's at this moment. 30:13
- That's wild. 30:14
- By tomorrow, there might be 180. 30:15
(Andrew laughing) We don't know. 30:16
We're gonna go eat their Truffle Soup Dumpling. 30:17
Truffle. 30:22
Have you had it before? 30:23
- Not truffle. 30:24
I'm not boujee. (Andrew chuckling) 30:25
- I'm just gonna walk away from that comment. 30:27
(heavy bass music) 30:28
(Mr. Yang speaks in foreign language) 30:32
- Was it always soup dumplings? 30:39
(Mr. Yang speaks in foreign language) 30:41
How do you get the soup inside the dumpling? 30:49
- Yeah. 30:51
(Mr. Yang speaks in foreign language) 30:52
(laughing) 30:52
(Mr. Yang speaks in foreign language) 30:54
So, when it's steamed, it becomes liquid-y? 30:59
(Inga speaks in foreign language) 31:02
(Mr. Yang speaks in foreign language) 31:04
What's important about that pleating process? 31:15
(Mr. Yang speaks in foreign language) 31:17
How do you maintain such high quality around the world? 31:24
(Mr. Yang speaks in foreign language) 31:26
- This is the Taiho IPA. 31:49
It's locally brewed, 31:51
and it has a really strong flavor of fruits. 31:53
- Oh, the logo is great. 31:56
It's a tiger. 31:58
Cheers, Steven. 31:59
- Cheers. 32:00
- Mm that's good. - That's, like, 32:03
almost cider. 32:05
- So, then, for the pork xiao long bao, 32:07
the most important part is the soup inside. 32:09
It's sort of, like, the soul of the xiao long bao. 32:11
So, we lift it up from the top, 32:13
we place it at the back-- (Steven and Andrew hollering) 32:15
of the spoon-- - Sorry, the bottom 32:18
just sagged down in a very satisfying way. 32:18
- Yeah. - We poke a little hole inside 32:21
to let the broth come out. 32:22
- Oh, okay. - Okay. 32:24
- And then please take a sip. 32:25
- You're gonna wait for me or just eat alone? 32:27
Okay, great. 32:29
- I'm following instructions, Steven. 32:30
(Andrew exclaiming) 32:32
- Nice? 32:33
- Yes, nice. 32:34
- And then we can add a little bit of ginger 32:35
with the sauce on top, 32:38
and then you can enjoy the xiao long bao together. 32:39
- All right, together. - I'm gonna wait for you 32:41
to drink your-- 32:42
Yeah. 32:43
- [Steven] I'm not good at.. how did you poke that so well? 32:43
(Andrew laughing) 32:45
- Would you need some help? 32:47
(laughing) 32:48
- Cheers, Steven. - Cheers. 32:50
(lips smacking) 32:55
- Oh, yeah. 32:56
- Yeah. - That's really good. 32:57
- [Steven] It's almost cloth-like-- 32:59
- Like a fabric. - The bottom of it. 33:00
- The broth has, like, a sweetness to it. 33:04
It's so good. 33:06
Do people ever eat it in one bite? 33:07
- Yes, they do. 33:09
But please be careful because it's really hot. 33:10
- Right. - Okay. 33:12
- Sometimes, you just gotta fly too close 33:13
to the sun though, so... 33:14
- I feel like I wanna feel it burst into my mouth. 33:15
- It is hot. 33:20
(laughing) 33:21
We've mentioned it so much in this video, 33:22
but I really have to bring it back to the QQ. 33:24
- Even though the dough is so thin, 33:27
it still is very satisfying. 33:29
- How do you attain that kind of texture 33:31
in, like, a film sheet. 33:33
- Adam, can you try this, please? 33:35
(laughing) 33:38
- Oh, that's good. 33:40
- Yeah, it's really good. 33:41
- This is our truffle and pork xiao long bao. 33:42
- Why do a truffles dumpling? 33:46
(Mr. Yang speaks in foreign language) 33:48
(cash register dings) 33:59
- [Andrew] Cleanse my palate. 34:01
(perky music) 34:03
- Before we get into the eating, 34:04
(Andrew laughing) 34:06
I do have to point out the pleating 34:07
- Yeah. - On this dumpling. 34:08
They're beautiful. 34:09
- Oh, yes. 34:11
(slurping sounds) 34:12
Oh! 34:15
What? 34:16
(Andrew chuckling) 34:17
- [Steven] Boujee cheers! 34:18
- Oh, sorry. 34:18
(laughing) 34:19
These are awesome. 34:21
Okay. 34:22
Last season, we ate soup that had truffle in it. 34:23
We learned that it has to be activated by heat and fat. 34:25
- Right. 34:29
- So, the truffle in a soup dumpling totally makes sense. 34:29
It really says something about this dough 34:32
that even though it's so thin, 34:34
you still get that QQ. 34:36
- [Steven] It's impossibly thin. 34:38
- Common complaint about our show 34:40
is that we always just put truffle in stuff 34:41
to make it more expensive. 34:43
- And we see you comment section, we see you. 34:44
- But these are about three US dollars per dumpling, 34:47
which is expensive, but for the taste of truffle, 34:50
how nice this is, I'd say that's worth it. 34:53
(laughing) 34:56
Show title, watch out. (laughing) 34:57
- They're doing truffle right. 34:58
- Yeah. 35:00
They're not doing it wrong. 35:01
(Steven laughing) 35:02
Adam, you wanna see if they're doing it right? 35:03
(laughing) 35:05
(Adam chuckling) 35:09
- [Steven] So, we're here at Raohe Night Market 35:11
because Inga suggested that we come 35:12
and eat their stinky tofu. 35:14
- The smell around the stall is quite stinky, 35:16
but once it's fried, it is much more subdued. 35:19
Cheers, Steven. 35:21
- Cheers. 35:22
- So juicy! 35:25
Holy crap! 35:28
Speaking of soup dumpling, there's a soup tofu. 35:28
- Try stinky tofu. 35:32
- Okay, so before we get to our Worth It winners, 35:33
what was your favorite thing in this episode 35:36
that was not a dumpling? 35:37
- My favorite thing was the fire hydrant soy milk. 35:40
(Andrew laughing) 35:43
at the (in foreign language) place. 35:44
The visuals of that are just astounding. 35:46
- My favorite thing was getting dressed like a scientist 35:48
at Din Tai Fung's central kitchen. 35:52
We went to this airlock that blew all the dust 35:53
and hair off of us. 35:56
And we got to see some really cool 35:57
behind-the-scenes stuff. 35:59
So, Steven, which dumpling was the most worth it to you 36:00
at its given price? 36:03
- My Worth It winner today goes to the pan-fried dumpling 36:04
at (in foreign language). 36:08
The value was incredible there. 36:10
The dumplings were amazing. 36:12
- The cabbage bun at that location was very nearly 36:14
my Worth It winner, but I have to give it to the 36:18
steamed pork dumplings at Location Two. 36:20
Like my fantasy of a dumpling is that dumpling. 36:22
Inga, who's your Worth It winner? 36:25
- I don't know. 36:28
It's so hard. 36:29
I wanna say two because it's my grandma's favorite, 36:30
but I think it's honestly one. 36:32
- [Andrew] Annie? 36:34
(laughing) 36:36
Adam says his winner's Din Tai Fung. 36:37
Next week, soup. 36:39
That's right. 36:41
Soup, again. 36:42
So soon, you say? 36:43
Trust us. 36:44
Taiwan may be the perfect place to have soup. 36:45
- Yes, so excited. 36:48
There's so many soups. 36:50
We have so many soups. 36:51
It's gonna be great. 36:52
- So many soups. 36:54
(Inga laughs) 36:57
(groovy music) 36:58
- "Worth It: Taiwan" is back. 37:10
- "Worth It" chicken. 37:12
Is that a chicken? 37:14
- Yeah. - Kind of. 37:15
- It's a rooster. 37:16
Which is a chicken. 37:17
- Is that a chicken? 37:18
- No, that's a pigeon. 37:18
We're here in Taiwan's garden night market. 37:19
We just picked up our chicken treats. 37:21
Tomorrow the journey begins. 37:22
We're going to three cities for three acts of chicken, 37:24
ending in a chicken finale like you've never seen before. 37:27
- Bok, bok, bish. 37:30
Leggo. 37:32
- Mm! 37:36
It's like a pancake. 37:37
- Today on "Worth It," we're going to be 37:38
trying three chicken dishes 37:39
at three drastically different price points 37:41
to find out which one is the most worth it at its price. 37:43
- So we're eating chicken, but our first chicken 37:45
is actually a soup. 37:48
I know we just finished a soup video, 37:49
but that's just how many soups there are here. 37:51
You can't escape the soup. 37:53
We're off to see the Chen family at Walking Su, 37:55
where we're going to be trying their sesame oil chicken. 37:58
- What is that in Mandarin, Inga? 38:00
(Inga speaks in foreign language) 38:02
(Steven speaks in foreign language) 38:04
(Inga speaks in foreign language) 38:04
(Steven speaks in foreign language) 38:06
- Okay, I'm excited to eat some chicken. 38:07
- Let's do it. 38:10
(xylophone music) 38:11
- Tell us about how this business got started. 38:13
(speaks in foreign language) 38:15
So this is a family business. 38:55
What do each of you do? 38:56
(speaks in foreign language) 38:57
Do you find it easy working together? 39:09
(speaks in foreign language) 39:11
- [Steven] Sesame oil chicken. 39:20
Is that dish a classic Taiwanese dish? 39:21
(speaks in foreign language) 39:23
(laughs) 39:38
- What are those herbs adding to this dish? 39:39
(speaks in foreign language) 39:41
(cash register dings) 39:52
- [Steven] This looks incredible. 39:53
- We're got a couple additional accoutrements here. 39:55
The Thai basil sauce, the spicy fermented bean paste, 39:59
and sticky rice. 40:03
All right, let's taste the broth. 40:04
Sesame oil chicken. 40:06
Mm. 40:10
Delightful nuttiness of the sesame oil. 40:11
- Yes. 40:13
Super nutty. 40:14
- Super. 40:15
- It's got this hearty feel to it. 40:16
- Oh, yeah, this is hearty as (beep). 40:18
How was that? 40:22
- So incredibly juicy and tender and, ugh. 40:23
I'm going to smell the Thai basil, 40:27
because that's their specialty here. 40:28
- Whoa! 40:31
Smells like pesto. 40:33
- Yeah. 40:34
What? 40:38
- That is awesome. 40:39
That is like a salad dressing to dip your soup into. 40:40
Adam, you gotta try the chicken in the Thai basil. 40:43
- Ooh. (Andrew laughs) 40:48
- Want to try some rice? 40:50
- Oh, yes. 40:51
- Chicken, Steven. - Cheers. 40:52
- The thing I keep getting blown away by in Taiwan, 40:55
I go to a meal expecting one thing, 41:00
and then there's always all this bonus stuff 41:02
that just blows my expectations out of the water. 41:05
- Yeah, and even when they first started this restaurant, 41:08
this was a bonus dish. 41:10
- Right. 41:12
- Right, that's crazy. - This was a free thing. 41:13
- So there's a lot of herbs added to this soup. 41:14
It tastes like an elixir. 41:16
It just washes away all of the pain in your body. 41:18
Achy back, I got a soup for that. 41:21
Tired eyes. 41:23
- Soup for that. 41:24
- My foot hurts. 41:25
- Throw some soup on there. 41:26
- It's all the same soup. 41:27
It's very convenient. 41:28
Adam, you want to get some of this soup? 41:29
I'm pretending like Adam's over here, 41:31
even though he's over there. 41:33
- Hi. 41:34
(laughs) 41:35
- So our next chicken location is in Taipei, 41:38
but first we're going to take a countryside detour. 41:41
- Yep, that's right. 41:44
We're going to a scallion farm in Yilan. 41:45
And we're going to be making our own scallion pancakes. 41:48
Not just cooking them. 41:51
We're going to pick them ourselves. 41:52
- Scallions, yeah. - Yes. 41:53
- It's a chicken episode, it's a soup episode, 41:54
and now it's a pancake episode. 41:56
(upbeat trumpet music) 41:58
- What you see in front of you here is a scallion pancake, 42:02
but rewind three hours. 42:05
What did we do? 42:07
- [Andrew] We're in this unique valley 42:08
where you get different temperature winds 42:09
at different times of day, 42:12
which create a nice perfect humidity for growing scallions. 42:13
So today we've picked a bunch of scallions, 42:17
cleaned them up, chopped them, cried a little bit, 42:19
and then learned how to make scallion pancakes. 42:21
And here we have it, the spoils of our toils. 42:23
- Cheers! - Cheers! 42:26
- Mm. 42:30
- Oh, yo. 42:31
- Yo. 42:32
Okay, this is one of the best things I've eaten so far. 42:35
You know what time it is now? 42:38
Time for a Taiwan food fact. 42:39
The concept of "xiao chi," meaning little eats, 42:41
is popular in Taiwan, basically meaning snacking 42:43
throughout the day, often on street food, between meals. 42:46
- Of course, yeah. 42:49
In Taiwan, if you only eat three meals in one day, 42:50
you're just doing it wrong. 42:53
- We're actually on our way to a snack shop next. 42:54
Inga, where are we going? 42:57
(Inga speaks in foreign language) 42:58
We're going to see Reebok and Julia 43:00
and try their fried chicken. 43:02
(solemn piano music) 43:03
- What makes a perfect fried chicken to you guys? 43:06
(speaks in foreign language) 43:08
- [Andrew] So what makes your Taiwanese 43:19
fried chicken unique? 43:20
(speaks in foreign language) 43:21
- [Steven] What do you recommend that we drink 43:54
with the fried chicken? 43:56
(speaks in foreign language) 43:57
- [Andrew] What? 44:15
- This is not what I was expecting. 44:15
- You ready, Steven? 44:17
- I'm ready. 44:18
- This is called dining al fresco. 44:19
- So we've ordered the recommended sparkling wine. 44:22
Apparently, you only order by the bottle here. 44:25
- I like that. 44:28
- It's my speed. - Let's go. 44:28
Cheers. 44:30
- How awesome is this? 44:33
This is some riviera (beep). 44:34
- We got to eat this while it's hot, so let's go. 44:36
Ooo. 44:38
It smells so good. - Oh, it's so fragrant. 44:39
The garlic, the onion, this basil. 44:40
The meat inside is so soft. 44:46
- It's very pleasing. 44:48
- Very pleasing. 44:49
Like brûléed marshmallows. 44:50
Seriously. 44:52
- Oh man. - It's wild. 44:53
I thought QQ was only for dumplings. 44:54
- Whoa. (Andrew laughs) 44:58
- It's so soft. 45:02
- It's almost like chicken nugget-esque. 45:03
- You know what's crazy about this? 45:05
We've eaten fried chicken in Minneapolis, 45:06
where the restaurant thought, "You know what's actually 45:09
the best drink to have with fried chicken? 45:11
Sparkling wine." 45:13
And here we are in Taiwan, 45:15
and this restaurant had the same idea. 45:17
- I see, I see. 45:19
- If there's a restaurant on either side of the world 45:20
that is doing the same thing, it must be great. 45:22
(speaks in foreign language) 45:25
- I'm scared to eat this, because I'm scared 45:34
of how much I'll like it. 45:36
- [Andrew] Pork knuckle and radish cake. 45:37
- Wow. 45:39
Ooo. 45:42
Oh, man. 45:44
- Watch out, you're going to push me off my stool. 45:45
- Radish cake is a classic dim sum dish. 45:47
I've eaten this every time I go out. 45:48
You know, they bring around the carts 45:50
and they're all steamed, right? 45:51
It's still hot but it doesn't have 45:52
that break-through-the-crunch texture that this has. 45:54
- You could maybe liken it to a potato pancake. 45:58
That's so good. 46:01
- Yeah it's crazy. - Yeah. 46:02
How should we eat the pork knuckle? 46:03
- [Chef] By hand. 46:05
- [Andrew] By hand? 46:06
Just like an apple? 46:07
- [Chef] Mm-hmm. 46:08
- Okay. 46:09
Kind of looks like a donut. 46:10
- Oh! 46:11
Yours does. 46:12
- Mine does. 46:13
- Cheers. 46:14
- Oh my god. 46:19
This is like a pork donut. 46:21
Wow. 46:25
(Steven laughs) 46:27
- So this is actually cartilage, but it feels like fat 46:28
with how loosey-goosey it is. 46:30
- The gelatin is the jelly of this pork donut. 46:32
- Right. 46:36
- And to wash it down, sparkling wine. 46:37
- Oh, thank goodness for this. 46:39
- How awesome is this? 46:40
- Thank you. - Thank you. 46:43
- This was really good. 46:44
- Thank you. 46:45
(speaks in foreign language) 46:46
- We are at the Beijing hotel, 46:51
where they serve a boba croissant. 46:53
Yes, you heard me right. 46:56
Boba croissant. 46:57
(imitates whooshing) 46:58
- We got the matcha, tiramisu and the milk tea. 47:00
Which one do you want? 47:02
- My gut is going toward matcha, 47:03
but I'm going against my gut and going for the tiramisu. 47:05
- I actually knew that you were going to pick that one, 47:08
because it has gold flake on it. 47:09
(Steven laughs) 47:11
All right, I'll go milk tea. 47:12
Very satisfying to pick up. 47:13
Cheers. 47:15
- Cheers. 47:16
Are you going to bite into it? 47:17
- Yeah. - Or open it up? 47:18
- I'm going to bite into it. 47:19
- Oh. (Steven gasps) 47:23
This is just all of the textures. 47:25
This is nice. 47:27
It's satisfyingly squishy. 47:28
- I think there's a word for that, QQ. 47:30
- Ready for a Taiwan food fact, Steven? 47:31
- Taiwan food fact! 47:34
Taiwan food fact. 47:35
- Um. 47:37
- Up until the 1960s, the most common Taiwanese breakfast 47:38
was rice or congee. 47:41
Buns emerged as a popular Taiwanese food in the 1960s 47:42
when U.S. trade introduced wheat into the Taiwanese diet. 47:46
- Shouldn't that fact go in the dumpling episode 47:49
that we did? 47:51
- Well, it was more about breakfast. 47:52
I just wanted an excuse to talk about congee, 47:53
because it's just a nice, savory thing 47:55
to have for breakfast. 47:58
- This is a very good croissant. 47:59
- Yeah. 48:02
- I got a cake. 48:04
- [Steven] Oh, my. 48:05
- [Andrew] This boba croissant is part of a boba festival. 48:07
- Boba fest. 48:09
- And Inga's got the crown jewel of the festival. 48:11
And now it's time to take a little train ride. 48:14
- QQ. 48:17
(Andrew laughs) 48:18
You want to hear my boba rap? 48:19
- Yeah. 48:21
- How do you like your boba? 48:22
- Yeah. 48:23
- Eat it like a cobra. 48:24
- Yeah. 48:25
- My name is Yoda. 48:26
- [Andrew] Yeah. 48:27
- [Steven] And I like yoga. 48:28
- Now dab. 48:30
- Never. 48:31
- This is a train water bottle that they sell 48:32
on the train. 48:34
(imitates train chugging) 48:35
So once we get done with this guy, we'll be in Taichung 48:37
and we'll be eating at our final chicken location. 48:40
- We're going to go meet RuiHong at Yan Xiang Lou 48:42
to have Beggar's Chicken. 48:45
(uplifting orchestral music) 48:47
- What kind of cuisine is the food here? 48:51
(speaks in foreign language) 48:53
- Tell us about this dish, the Beggar's Chicken. 49:13
(speaks in foreign language) 49:15
- What happened to the beggar? 49:40
(speaks in foreign language) (laughs) 49:42
(speaks in foreign language) 49:45
I hope so. 49:46
(speaks in foreign language) 49:47
- [Andrew] Why bake the chicken in clay? 49:51
(speaks in foreign language) 49:52
How do we get the chicken out from the clay? 50:21
(speaks in foreign language) 50:24
Which one of us gets to do it? 50:38
- [Steven] I'll do the hammering, you do the hammer time. 50:40
- What? 50:42
You just automatically assume that you get to hammer. 50:42
(speaks in foreign language) 50:44
- You can both do it. 50:48
- Two hammers? - Yeah. 50:50
- Okay. 50:51
- Great. - Resolved. 50:52
Ooh, thank you. 50:55
Cheers to our final meal in Taiwan. 51:00
- Oh, no! 51:03
- I know. 51:04
- Cheers. 51:06
- Since this is our last meal in Taiwan, 51:08
we're blowing it out. 51:11
- [Steven] Let's do it. 51:12
- I saw a little sneak peek of what's coming upstairs. 51:13
It's going to blow you away. 51:15
So this is winter melon. 51:17
- [Steven] Whoa. 51:18
- Wow. - Wow. 51:20
- What? 51:25
Look at it coming out, pouring on the fish's head. 51:28
- These look too real. 51:30
Look at the scales on these guys. 51:32
- Honestly, every time I've seen a koi fish, 51:34
I've thought they looked like a tasty fish. 51:36
Cheers, Steven. 51:38
Fish kiss. 51:39
That's a good dumpling. 51:42
- Aw, fish super good. 51:45
- This looks like in "Hook," when Robin Williams 51:46
is imagining the food. 51:49
Have you seen this movie? 51:50
It's all vibrant colors. 51:51
Do yourself a favor, go watch "Hook." 51:53
You'll have a delightful time. 51:55
You'll be reminded of this moment. 51:56
- I'm going pink for my hair. 51:58
We might as well have just shot all three episodes here. 52:03
- Much like the origin myth, 52:09
first we're eating like an emperor, 52:11
and then we're taking a journey to discover the chicken. 52:13
- Food is all about storytelling. 52:17
Well, and taste. 52:18
(Andrew laughs) But also storytelling. 52:20
(dramatic orchestral music) 52:22
(Steven laughs) 52:30
- Ohh. - Ohh. 52:32
Hey, oh. - Okay. 52:33
What? 52:35
- Yes. 52:36
- What? 52:38
- [Inga] You guys can go up now. 52:40
- Hammer time? - Okay. 52:41
- All right, Steven. 52:42
I'm nervous. 52:43
- I am scared, too. 52:44
- [Both] One, two, three! 52:46
(clay shatters) 52:47
- Wow. - Nice! 52:49
- Looks like chocolate. 52:50
- Smells like dirt. - Dirt. 52:52
(laughs) 52:54
We just hatched our chicken dinner. 52:55
It was very dino egg-like. 52:57
- [Both] Mm. 53:01
- Wow. 53:04
Chicken cheers. 53:05
- Chicken cheers. 53:06
- Oh, that's good. 53:09
- What? 53:10
That is so soft. 53:11
- Some people say chicken's a boring meal. 53:12
I would say those people haven't had it-- 53:14
- Deep-fried, baked in clay. 53:16
- Stuffed with pork and aromatics. 53:18
- There's pork in the chicken? 53:20
- Yeah. 53:21
- [Inga] So now she's just adding a sauce. 53:22
I think it's an oyster sauce slurry. 53:23
- Oh. 53:28
That tastes like my mom's fried rice. 53:30
Whoa, that was weird. 53:33
- "Mom?" 53:35
(laughs) 53:36
You know what this chicken is? 53:37
It's a time capsule. 53:38
For flavor. 53:40
Buried under dirt, much like a regular time capsule. 53:41
But it's also a dish-- 53:43
- From the Ming dynasty. 53:46
Is there a letter written in there? 53:47
Like, "Dear diary, do I still taste good?" 53:48
- Yeah. 53:51
- Very soft. 53:53
- Very soft. 53:54
At its core, this dish is just a plate 53:55
of really nice chicken. 53:58
So simple, so perfect. 53:59
We're going to take it back into artistry land now, 54:01
if that's okay with you. 54:04
- Let's do it. 54:05
What is going on right now? 54:06
- Yeah, dude. 54:08
(Andrew laughs) 54:10
Looks like a scene from "Nightmare Before Christmas." 54:13
This is too beautiful not to share. 54:15
I think we should get everybody in here 54:17
and we all take a bite. 54:18
Who wants a swan, who wants a pumpkin? 54:19
Cheers, everybody. 54:22
- Cheers. - Cheers. 54:23
- What? 54:27
Oh my god. 54:29
It's red bean. 54:30
- Why? - Wow. 54:31
- Why? 54:33
- Not "why." 54:34
Why not? 54:35
Worth it. 54:37
Beggar's Chicken. 54:38
You know they say beggars can't be choosers, 54:39
but beggars can be chicken. 54:41
That was quite an experience. 54:43
Steven, before we get to our "Worth It" winners, 54:44
what was your favorite thing that wasn't one 54:46
of the highlight foods in this "Worth It" episode. 54:49
- The Pork Knuckle at Chu Zha Xiaoshi Dian. 54:51
Mm. (hand thuds) 54:55
- That's the knuckle. 54:56
- It was so good, I contemplated eating my own knuckles. 54:56
What was your favorite thing? 55:00
- Honestly, the hard ass rain while we were filming 55:01
location two. 55:04
We had a typhoon barely graze us, but we still got 55:05
some awesome hard rain, which I love. 55:08
- Which chicken was the most worth it to you? 55:10
- My "Worth It" winner, Walking Su sesame oil chicken. 55:12
- [Steven] Woo. 55:15
- If that chicken had been in the soup episode, 55:16
it would have won that episode, too. 55:18
- Wow. 55:19
- Comforting, exciting, inexpensive. 55:20
It was wonderful. 55:23
Who was your "Worth It" winner? 55:24
- Okay. 55:24
Walking Su, totally new experience. 55:25
- [Andrew] Yeah. 55:27
- Yan Xiang Lou. 55:28
If you could eat with your eyes, that place would have won. 55:28
But, because that pork knuckle was so effing good, 55:30
my "Worth It" winner must go to Chu Zha Xiaoshi Dian. 55:35
- Inga, "Worth It" winner. 55:39
- Two, Chu Zha Xiaoshi Dian. 55:41
With Reebok and Julia. 55:43
- [Steven] Annie? 55:44
- [Annie] The swan. 55:45
- Adam, who's your "Worth It" winner? 55:46
- [Adam] Fried chicken. 55:47
- Oo, the fried chicken. 55:49
Very good choice. 55:50
- All right. 55:51
That's a wrap on "Worth It: Taiwan." 55:52
- Very special thank you to the Taiwan Tourism Bureau, 55:54
that helped us out tremendously with this trip. 55:56
Couldn't have been here without them. 55:59
- All right, let's get out of here. 56:00
Bye! 56:02
(upbeat groovy music) 56:04
- Welcome back. 56:16
- Welcome back, Steven. 56:17
We're doing another three episode burst 56:18
before the new year rolls in. 56:20
You might be wondering why we're not driving. 56:22
Say hi, Devon. 56:24
Devon's up front driving 56:25
because we're picking up our special co-star today. 56:26
He's an avid fan of the show, from River Forest, Illinois. 56:28
His name is Jackson, and his visit is made possible 56:32
by Make-A-Wish. 56:34
- [Steven] What's up? 56:36
Nice to meet you 56:37
(parents laughing) 56:38
Hi, guys! - Hey. 56:39
- You ready to go? - Yes. 56:40
- [Steven] All right. 56:41
(grunts) 56:43
There's Adam, say hi. 56:44
- Hey. (Andrew laughs) 56:45
- Welcome to the car, Jackson. 56:48
- It's the worth automobile. 56:49
- That's right. - Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, 56:51
I'm the pun master on this show. 56:52
- [Steven] I like it. 56:54
- But thank you Jackson for joining us 56:55
on our double cheeseburger episode today. 56:56
- Thank you for having me. 56:58
- You flew all the way out from Illinois. 56:59
- Yes. - The Midwest, 57:02
I like you already. 57:03
- Should we do the Today on Worth It? 57:04
- You don't know how to do that? 57:06
- Today on "Worth It", we're having 57:07
three double cheeseburgers at three addresses 57:08
at three different price points 57:11
to see which one is worth it. 57:12
- The most worth it. 57:13
- [Together] The most worth it. 57:14
- At its given price point. 57:15
- So that's at least six patties. 57:17
- Are you prepared? 57:19
- I'm hungry. 57:20
- Good 57:21
- So the first place we're going to 57:22
is called Burgers Never Say Die. 57:23
We're gonna see Shawn. 57:24
- This is a smash burger joint. 57:26
I love Super Smash, the game, Ultimate, and all. 57:27
You play Ultimate? 57:31
- Yes 57:32
- Ooh, who's your main? 57:33
- (chuckling) Oh my God. 57:34
- Donkey Kong. 57:36
- Okay, okay, I'm a Ness man. 57:37
- You're bringing all the co-host attributes 57:39
that Steven wants in me, but I don't possess. 57:40
- Hey, do you watch the NBA? 57:44
- Yes. 57:45
(all exclaiming) 57:46
- That's what I'm talking about. 57:47
- So your menu starts with the regular, 57:51
and the regular has two patties. 57:53
- Yes - Why is that? 57:55
- I like double cheeseburgers. 57:56
That's what I grew up eating. 57:57
It also works because it's a smash patty. 57:59
- [Andrew] And tell us what a smash burger is? 58:00
- [Shawn] It's cooked on a flat top, at very high heat, 58:02
and you just smash it down there, so it sears to the griddle 58:05
and the whole process probably takes a minute or less. 58:07
- [Jackson] What makes a really good burger? 58:10
- [Shawn] It's so subjective, like personally, for me, 58:11
I like burgers cooked on the griddle. 58:13
- [Jackson] What does the griddle add? 58:15
- [Shawn] You get flavor that's been there, the seasoning 58:16
from the food items other than burgers. 58:18
- [Andrew] What drew you to making burgers specifically? 58:20
- My wife and I, we were always really into burgers 58:22
and got into the food scene of LA. 58:24
Bringing together all the burgers we ate, 58:26
I thought, I wanna try making this burger myself. 58:27
I started in my backyard 58:29
with no intention of opening a restaurant. 58:30
For a couple weeks, I was just begging people to come 58:32
and try the burger; friends, coworkers, whoever. 58:34
And then, some people approached me, 58:36
asking if I wanted to open a restaurant. 58:37
And throughout my whole life, 58:39
I usually just jump in, 58:40
and I thought, let's give this a shot and see what happens. 58:41
- We have a sign right here that says, "always order two". 58:43
Why? 58:46
- It's an ode to the backyard. 58:47
People would order one, and they would regret it 58:48
and then there would be a long line or we had sold out, so. 58:51
- Is two still doable? 58:53
- I recommend two for you, yeah. 58:55
- What about you, do you do two? 58:56
- I do two, I've eaten like six in one day, so. 58:57
(laughing) - Oh my goodness. 59:00
- I mean we're gonna do six probably, 59:01
over the course of this day, for us, 59:03
so why not start with two? 59:05
- (sighs) Here we go. 59:06
(cash register dings) 59:08
- [Andrew] All right, Jackson, take it away. 59:10
- Worth-it, Double Cheeseburger, take one. 59:11
- Nice. - That was perfect. 59:13
That was better than I usually do. 59:14
Take two. 59:15
(clattering) (laughing) 59:16
So that Burgers Never Say Die, 59:19
they also have soft serve ice cream. 59:20
Insider pro tip; 59:21
you get your soft serve in a cup, order a soda on the side, 59:23
and then mix it for your own float. 59:25
What are the correct proportions for a float? 59:27
Does anybody know? 59:30
- The whole bottle. - It's a feel. 59:30
- Jackson's got classic root beer float. 59:32
This is Steven's-- 59:34
- [Steven] I got chocolate-- 59:35
- And a blueberry root beer. 59:36
Okay, when, when, when, when. 59:38
Cheers! - Cheers! 59:39
How do you eat this? 59:42
- Who thought of floats? - Ooh! 59:43
- Pour some soda on some ice cream? 59:44
That's like some, 59:46
the-parents-aren't-home, mischief (all laughing). 59:47
- [All] Cheers. 59:50
- The fries! 59:52
- Taste like McDonald's. - Taste like McDonald's, yeah. 59:53
- So these fries are fried in beef tallow. 59:55
Apparently this is what McDonald's tasted like 59:58
way back in the day, 00:00
before they switched to a vegetable oil. 00:01
Staying true to their motto, 00:04
we've two burgers for each of us except for you Jackson, 00:05
because this is your first time on one of these rodeos, 00:09
I don't wanna do that to you. 00:11
- Whoa. 00:13
- It looks the way a fast food burger looks in a commercial, 00:14
but this is how it is in real life. 00:18
- [Jackson] It smells good. 00:19
- Great bun smell. 00:21
Did you think you'd have to wait this long 00:24
before you actually get to take a bite? 00:25
- Can I point out one more physical attribute 00:27
of this burger before we bite into it? 00:29
Sorry, Jackson. 00:31
Look at the way it's like a lattice. 00:32
- [Andrew] Yeah, yeah, yeah. 00:34
- Crispy? - Very crispy. 00:35
But you can almost see through the meat. 00:36
- [Andrew] Like a spider's web. 00:38
- [All] Cheers! 00:39
- Oh, man. 00:43
Wow! 00:45
- It's crunchy too 00:45
- It's really crunchy. - Yeah. 00:46
- It's the essence of burger. 00:48
There's nothing extra. 00:50
There's not like strange sauces or condiments. 00:51
- Oh man. 00:54
- This might be the best burger I've ever had. 00:55
- Oh man. 00:56
- Like truly. 00:57
- Would you agree with that? 00:57
- Yes. 00:58
- This is one of my favorite ones. 00:59
- Swallow your food. 01:00
(Jackson and Steven laughing) 01:02
- Next burger, here we go. 01:03
- You would definitely be satisfied by one of these, 01:04
but you're gonna want two. 01:07
- I do agree. 01:08
Order two. 01:09
What am I doing with my life now? 01:10
I'm only slightly lactose-intolerant, 01:12
so low levels of cheese, that's fine. 01:14
Are you lactose-intolerant at all? 01:16
- No. 01:18
- You're a lucky person. 01:18
Oh, we had ice cream, too. 01:19
What am I doing? (all laughing) 01:20
- [Andrew] Jackson, what do you think 01:22
about the part of the show where Adam eats? 01:23
- He takes really large bites. 01:25
(laughing) 01:27
- I'm gonna finish mine before you. 01:29
- Of course. 01:30
I don't know if I could do that. 01:33
- What a cheeseburger. 01:34
- [Jackson and Steven] That was insane. 01:35
- We keep talking at the same time. 01:36
- Oh. 01:38
- Twins! - Look who is simpatico. 01:40
So before our next double cheeseburger, 01:41
we're actually gonna get another double cheeseburger. 01:44
We're going to this French restaurant 01:46
in West Hollywood, called Tesse. 01:47
I saw on Instagram, that for National Burger day, 01:49
they made, we're just gonna call it 01:52
a special dessert burger. 01:53
We reached out, and the pastry chef, Sally, 01:55
so kindly agreed to remake it, but double this time. 01:58
This might be the most visually 02:01
appealing burger of the day. 02:02
(charming old school music) 02:04
- Close your eyes. - Okay. 02:07
- Man, this is gonna blow you away. 02:09
Three, two, one, reveal! 02:10
(Steven and Jackson exclaiming) 02:12
- [Andrew] It's very realistic. 02:14
- Dude, is that a strawberry? 02:15
- [Jackson and Andrew] Yes. 02:17
- [Andrew] Two macaroons, chocolate ganache, 02:18
mango passion fruit cheese, strawberry slices, shiso leaf, 02:20
and a raspberry jelly for the ketchup. 02:24
- Wow. 02:26
If you did not tell me that was dessert, 02:27
I would not have guessed it. 02:28
- [All] Cheers! 02:30
- [Steven] How to eat this? 02:32
(mumbling) 02:34
- It's actually really good. 02:38
I mean it's chocolate and fruit, what's not to like? 02:40
- It's sweet and bitter at the same time. 02:42
- [Steven] That's the nosh. 02:44
- The tasting notes coming off of Jackson. 02:44
This isn't your first time, is it? 02:47
- No. - All right, I retire today, 02:48
you can have the-- 02:50
- Do you know what time it is now? 02:51
- Yes. 02:52
Oh, you're asking me or Jackson? 02:53
- If you didn't know, I'd be concerned. 02:55
- Fact time. 02:57
- That's right, double cheeseburger fact. 02:57
- Double cheeseburger fact. 02:59
- One minute. 03:01
(all laughing) 03:02
Double cheeseburger fact. 03:04
- Bob's Big Boy, is credited with selling 03:05
the first double cheeseburger in 1937. 03:06
The chain's original name was Bob's Pantry 03:09
but after the double cheeseburger, 03:12
dubbed the Big Boy, was invented, 03:14
the restaurant changed its name to boast its famous burger. 03:16
The double cheeseburger became so famous, 03:20
they changed their restaurant name. 03:22
- [Adam] What about renaming this show? 03:23
- Whoa. - Whoa. 03:25
It would probably be called, Adam's Silent Bite. 03:27
- No, Adam's Big Bite. 03:29
- Adam's Big Bite. 03:30
Yes! 03:31
For our next double cheeseburger, 03:32
we're on our way to see Frederick and Max, 03:33
at Burgerlords, in Highland Park. 03:35
Similar to this double cheeseburger, 03:37
this next double cheeseburger's made without meat. 03:39
- I've never had a veggie cheeseburger before. 03:42
- Curveball for the episode. 03:45
- I'm scared and excited. 03:46
- Scared and excited is a good place to be with food. 03:48
Tell us what kind of restaurant Burgerlords is. 03:52
- The way I think of it, it's kind of a bizzaro version 03:55
of a traditional fast food restaurant. 03:57
You're used to a frozen garden burger, portobello. 03:59
This is the opposite, where everything is vegan, vegetarian, 04:02
except the beef burger. 04:05
- Do you think you're more popular 04:06
with traditional beef cheeseburgers 04:08
or with the vegetarian and vegan crowd? 04:09
- Honestly it's like 50-50. 04:12
- Yeah? - Yeah we look at it 04:14
every week. 04:15
- [Steven] How did you guys develop 04:16
the recipe for this patty? 04:17
- [Max] Everything kind of has its role. 04:19
The barley for chewiness, and cashews give it a nice crunch. 04:21
We're roasting all the eggplants, 04:25
slicing up the other vegetables. 04:27
Those get sauteed with all the spices on the flat top. 04:28
Cooking barley in a rice cooker, with kambu and miso, 04:32
roasting nuts, garbanzo beans, cashews, 04:35
and then it all goes into one batch, and just mixed up. 04:38
- [Fred] Once it's cold, it settles, 04:42
and then we're balling it like a traditional burger. 04:43
We roll it in Panko, then we patty it out, 04:45
so the Panko when it's cooking gives it a kinda crispy edge. 04:48
- [Max] Helps keep the patty from burning on the grill, too. 04:51
- [Fred] All of the work comes at the beginning, 04:54
so we can push it out really fast. 04:55
On average, I mean our tickets, are like five to 10 minutes. 04:58
It's like neo-fast food. 05:01
- [Max] It feels like fast food, it looks like it 05:02
on the exterior, but in the kitchen, we're cooking all day. 05:04
- [Steven] Now that you've explained all of this, 05:08
it feels like a burger joint 05:09
is the hardest thing to do for vegetarians. 05:11
Like why did you wanna tackle a burger joint? 05:14
- You know, there's the nostalgia. 05:17
You know, it's the experience of a diner, 05:19
a fast food restaurant, having fries and eating a burger. 05:20
It was also to create something that we didn't think 05:24
really existed here. 05:27
You know, when we grew up, 05:28
there was a lot of times we felt left out, 05:29
so we wanted to make sure that everyone felt 05:31
they had a good option here. 05:33
(cash register dings) 05:35
- So to round out our experience, 05:36
we also got the tofu nuggets and french fries, 05:38
lord-of-the-fries style. 05:41
- Lord of the fries, that's a good pun. 05:43
Have you read "Lord of the Fries" yet? 05:45
(all laughing) - Oh God. 05:49
- We can't take you anywhere. 05:51
- Cheers. - Cheers. 05:52
- Ah, this is good. 05:54
We need napkins. - Oh my goodness. 05:55
For the first time in my life, 05:57
I have somebody who is also a messy eater. 05:59
Look at that. 06:01
- [Jackson] Cheese crust. 06:02
- [Andrew] It's got the cheese crust. 06:03
- Cheers. - Cheers. 06:04
- [Steven] Veggie bumps. 06:05
- This is good. - Wow. 06:09
- It doesn't taste like plants at all. 06:11
It tastes like real beef. 06:12
- It's hot, cheesy, juicy, meaty, and yet there's no meat. 06:14
So when you think, "Man, I could really go 06:18
"for a burger right now." 06:19
Does this satisfy that feeling? 06:21
- 100% 06:23
(laughing) 06:25
- Are you gonna finish that thing Steven? 06:29
- I'm trying to. 06:30
- Put a little hot sauce on there. 06:31
- Ooh! - Ooh! 06:32
- Yeah, hot sauce me. 06:33
You know what, that's really good. 06:36
It's a nice little kick. 06:37
It really brightens the flavor of the burger. 06:38
- Oh, it has a good kick to it, that's good. 06:40
- It is like I'm in a different universe right now. 06:43
Vegetarian food, in this universe, is the norm. 06:46
- It does kind a feel like we're in a Twilight Zone set, 06:49
a little bit, just like transported back in time, 06:52
but to an alternate reality where everybody's a vegetarian, 06:54
and you know what? 06:57
Pretty good. 06:58
You ever watch Twilight Zone? 06:59
- [Andrew] Wow, that was a good bite. 07:02
- This is so good. 07:04
- Life blowing. 07:06
- Life blowing (laughing) 07:07
- Not just mind blowing 07:08
- Life blowing 07:10
- Life. 07:10
Oh my gosh, guys, I'm on patty number ten. 07:11
(laughing) 07:14
- That was eight. - Oh, sorry, eight. 07:15
- It was eight. 07:16
Yeah. - I can't count anymore. 07:17
That's how many patties I've had. 07:18
- Before we go to our last burger, it's time for one more-- 07:19
- Burger fact. 07:22
- [Andrew] Double cheeseburger fact! 07:23
- Oh dang it. (laughs) 07:24
- Would you like to read the fact today? 07:26
- Sure. 07:27
The price of the Big Mac 07:28
when it debuted nationwide was 49 cents. 07:29
- 49 cents? 07:32
So you're telling me I could go to a McDonald's 07:33
with two quarters and come back with a Big Mac and a penny? 07:35
- Yeah, in the 60s, when it debuted. 07:37
- Oh, sorry. 07:39
- [Adam] That happened a long-- 07:40
- Back in the 60s. 07:41
- Back in the 60s, right. 07:42
- We're on our way to Petit Trois, 07:43
where we're gonna see Chef Ludo, 07:44
and his double cheeseburger called, The Big Mec. 07:46
- And what is on this Big Mec? 07:49
- Well, it's a French Restaurant, so sauce. 07:51
- Petit Trois, it's a classic French restaurant. 07:56
The design and the food is very French. 07:59
- And so you have this burger. 08:02
How does that fit into that classic menu? 08:03
- In France, we eat a lot of steak hache, 08:05
you know, is a patty, so I decided to just do a burger, 08:07
like what Americans like, you know? 08:10
And look like a burger, too. 08:11
- [Jackson] What makes a really good burger? 08:13
- [Ludo] A burger needs to be crispy and juicy. 08:14
When I eat a steak or any meat, that's what I want. 08:17
I want the meat to be crispy 08:19
- It's called the Big Mec, styled after the Big Mac, 08:21
of course, right? 08:24
- Of course, yeah yeah, of course. 08:24
Mec, in France, means guys, 08:25
(speaks in foreign language) 08:28
French food is all about the sauce, 08:32
so what's very important for me to have my burger 08:33
in the plate, swimming in the sauce, 08:36
like when you eat a steak, so I decided to do 08:38
a classic French sauce, called Bordelaise, 08:40
beef stock with a lot of shallot and a red wine sauce. 08:42
We take like eight hour to do, 08:45
then after we have aged cheddar cheese. 08:47
How do you know if I'm going to put aged cheddar cheese 08:49
or American cheese? 08:51
Because I love American cheese. 08:53
- Really? - Oh I love it. 08:54
- You love American cheese? 08:55
- Oh we don't like American cheese? 08:56
Guys, come on. - Some people don't. 08:56
- When I think about French cuisine, I think fine dining, 08:58
or I think like kind of-- 09:00
- Foufou? 09:02
- [Steven] Yeah, a little bit, 09:03
I mean this burger is not what comes to mind, right? 09:04
- My job as a chef is also to cook what people want. 09:07
And it's fun to mix American food with French cuisine. 09:10
I recommend to eat the burger with a fork and knife. 09:14
Very French foufou, like you say. 09:17
- You said that, not me. 09:18
- So it is fork and knife? 09:21
- In France, we eat our burger with a fork and knife. 09:22
Okay guys, sorry, yeah we do. 09:24
(cash register dings) 09:26
- [Steven] There it is. 09:27
- It's really unlike any burger I've ever seen before. 09:28
- Look at how it's plated. 09:31
- [Jackson] It's in a pool of sauce. 09:32
- Yeah, it looks like a lily pad in a murky pond. 09:33
- [Steven] Will you do the honors? 09:36
- Oh man, oh okay. 09:37
- [Steven] Everybody on the internet 09:38
is going to watch you cut this in half. 09:39
- We're losing traction here. 09:40
- Oh, god. (laughs) 09:42
- [Andrew] This is a $25 cheeseburger 09:43
that you're just hacking through. 09:45
- [Steven] Double. 09:46
- Stab through the whole thing to secure your bite. 09:47
What? 09:49
Oh god. (all laughing) 09:50
- I regret saying that I would be okay sharing a burger. 09:51
I'm gonna cheers? - Cheers! 09:54
- And then I'm gonna mop up some sauce. 09:56
- It's magical. 10:00
- Yeah. - Yeah, boy. 10:01
- Wow. 10:02
Oh man, that sauce. 10:03
- That sauce. - Is incredible. 10:05
- The patty is so crispy. 10:06
- It's juicy and crispy at the same time. 10:08
- Okay, if I were to go back to Burgerlords, 10:11
that was everything I want in a burger, 10:13
but it's vegetarian. 10:15
- This is everything I didn't know I wanted in a burger. 10:16
- Exactly, I don't think I've had a sauce like this before, 10:18
that is so rich and yet tantalizing. 10:21
- Yes, the sourness just makes you crave more. 10:25
- Yes, it does. 10:28
- Jackson's like, keep talking 10:30
while I eat the rest of this burger. 10:31
- (chuckling) He is destroying our burger. 10:32
- Is this what you thought an expensive burger 10:33
would look like on Worth It? 10:35
- No, I thought it would look fancier. 10:37
Most expensive burgers, like your episode with Keith, 10:39
it was a lot of ingredients, like foie gras and lobster. 10:42
This one just has beef and cheese and a sauce. 10:45
It's so simple that you don't need anything else. 10:48
How is it? 10:55
- I can see why you'd use a fork and knife. 10:57
(laughing) 11:05
- So how do you feel? 11:07
- Food coma. - Food coma? 11:08
- So now's the time. 11:10
You know what time it is. 11:11
- Double cheeseburger dance time. 11:12
Go! 11:13
(laughing) 11:15
Double cheeseburger, hey! 11:16
Oh! 11:20
- Before we get to our Worth It winners, 11:22
what was your favorite thing today 11:23
that wasn't a double cheeseburger? 11:25
- The dessert at Tesse. 11:27
- Oh yeah. - That was good. 11:28
- You just stole my answer. 11:30
- My favorite thing today that wasn't a double cheeseburger 11:32
was our co-star Jackson. 11:34
- Aw. - Aw. 11:36
- And that fact that I didn't have to eat alone 11:37
with Steven one more time. 11:38
I think we'll start with you today, Steven. 11:40
Which double cheeseburger was most worth it to you, 11:42
at its given price? 11:45
- Burgers Never Say Die. 11:47
The texture of the patty was what I try to accomplish 11:48
when I add chips to my burgers. 11:51
Crunchy, crispy, juicy. 11:53
- Hold on, rewind this back. 11:55
You put potato chips on your cheeseburgers? 11:57
- Yeah, great double cheeseburger. 11:59
But I gotta say my worth-it winner 12:01
just barely goes to the Burgerlords. 12:03
- [Andrew] Oh the vegetarian double cheeseburger. 12:07
- That redefined what a double cheeseburger could be. 12:09
Next up, we got Andrew. 12:13
(Andrew groans) 12:15
- I love all of these places. 12:17
Burgers Never Say Die, probably the best straightforward 12:19
cheeseburger I've ever had. 12:22
Burgerlords, I think that's where I'd go if I wanted 12:23
to hang out with people. 12:26
Am I gonna say my worth it winner is Petit Trois? 12:27
I think I am. 12:31
When I think about it, I start salivating. 12:32
I think it's the Bordelaise sauce. 12:34
- Did you see that coming? 12:36
- No. 12:37
- I thought he was gonna choose Burgers Never Say Die. 12:38
- Yeah, me too - Look. 12:40
Obviously, they were all great burgers. 12:41
- Okay, before I say my worth it winner, 12:43
how could you not pick the last one? 12:45
I mean you're the hype beast of food. 12:46
- (laughing) What? 12:48
- You're a very fancy boy, you know? 12:49
- Hot dog, you picked the high-priced one. 12:51
Steak, high priced. 12:53
- Wow. 12:55
If you actually go back and tally the ones I pick 12:56
the high-priced one, though, it's not that often. 12:58
- Sushi and burger. 13:00
- Okay, all right, I'm out of here. 13:01
- Jackson knowledge of the show is coming back to haunt us. 13:03
- Just kidding, I love you, buddy. 13:06
- I love you too, bro. 13:07
- All right, Jackson. - Okay. 13:08
- No more beating around the bush. 13:09
Who's your Worth It winner? 13:11
- [Jackson] So the veggie burger, 13:12
it was a new experience for me. 13:13
I'm going to start ordering veggie burgers, 13:15
so Burgerlords is my Worth It winner. 13:16
- What? 13:18
(Jackson and Steven exclaim in excitement) 13:19
Are you kidding me? 13:21
That was a good fake out. 13:22
Adam, who's your Worth It winner? 13:23
- [Adam] Burgers Never Say Die. 13:25
- Annie, who's your Worth It winner? 13:26
- Burgers Never Say Die. 13:28
- All right, we've got a good mix here. 13:29
But all we know for sure is that Andrew lost today. 13:30
- I did not lose. 13:33
- This has been quite the journey. 13:34
- Thank you for having me. 13:35
- No, thank you for flying all the way out here. 13:36
- It was worth it. 13:39
- What? 13:40
Show name, watch out. 13:41
(laughing) 13:43
This Worth It winner decision is going to haunt me forever. 13:43
- So you wanna change it? 13:45
- I take it back, it's-- 13:47
(upbeat music) 13:48
Back for another episode of Worth It. 13:59
- And we're not just noodling around here, 14:01
but we are covering noodles. 14:03
- Noodles. 14:05
We've done many types of noodles in the past. 14:06
Pasta, spaghetti, ramen. 14:09
Today, we're focusing on non-Italian noodles in Los Angeles. 14:11
- Today on Worth It, 14:17
we're going to be trying three delicious noodle dishes 14:18
at three drastically different price points 14:20
to find out which noodle is the most worth it at its price. 14:22
Okay, so we're sticking specifically to Asian dishes. 14:25
The first place we're going to, where are we going? 14:28
- We're going to Lao Xi'er Noodle House 14:30
to see Joe and Ellen, 14:32
and we're having their Wife's Special Noodle dish. 14:34
- Sweet. 14:37
Very, very sweet. 14:38
Like, the story is sweet. 14:38
- It is actually a sweet story. 14:40
(upbeat jazz music) 14:42
How did you come to start this business together? 14:46
- It's his dream. 14:48
- I can't find my favorite noodle in LA. 14:49
- It was different than what you were used to? 14:52
- Very different. 14:54
He wanted to keep the original style from my hometown. 14:55
Shanxi Province, northwest of China. 14:58
- [Andrew] I'm curious how many styles of noodle 15:01
there are from your hometown? 15:03
- [Ellen] More than a thousand different. 15:05
- More than a thousand different styles? 15:07
- Yeah. - That's a lot. 15:08
- [Ellen] The cat's ear noodle, Mau Er Duo 15:10
also in my hometown we make a lot. 15:13
Most of the time we make it with lamb or beef soup. 15:15
Actually, it's very similar to, like, macaroni noodle. 15:18
Knife-cut noodle is a flat and thick noodle. 15:21
That noodle we usually make stir-fry. 15:25
- We are focusing on the Wife's Special Noodle dish. 15:28
Could you tell us what is the story behind that dish? 15:31
- Introduce this. 15:33
- She's my wife. 15:35
(both laugh loudly) 15:36
(Joe speaks in foreign language) 15:37
- [Ellen] The noodle is called Helao-style. 15:57
It's a long and thin noodle. 16:00
The machine push it to the pot directly, 16:02
so it's very very fresh. 16:05
It really only take two or three minutes to cook it. 16:07
The first sauce, the beef 16:10
taste will be a little bit spicy 16:12
and the tomato with egg, 16:15
we just use tomato fried with egg. 16:16
A little bit sour tasting. 16:19
The ground pork just soybean paste with ground pork. 16:22
- [Andrew] If I'm understanding this correctly, 16:27
in your hometown it's common to eat 16:29
each of these sauces with noodles. 16:31
Sometimes people will combine two, 16:33
and you had the idea to put all three together. 16:35
- [Ellen] Yeah. 16:37
- Why was that? 16:38
- [Ellen] The flavor will be more complex 16:39
- [Joe] Because I like this flavor. 16:41
Together have a vegetable, 16:43
and a meat, have a sour, have a salty. 16:44
One bowl is great. 16:48
(cash register dings) 16:50
- You guys also make dumplings here. 16:51
Do you have a recommendation on which one we should try? 16:52
- Yeah, lamb dumpling, I like. 16:54
New item for me. 16:56
- [Steven] I'm gonna do it with vinegar and chile oil. 16:58
- Dumpling cheers. - Cheers. 17:00
(laughs) Go to the bath together. 17:02
Come on. 17:05
- [Both] Mm. 17:09
- I have to have another. 17:12
- Share some with... 17:14
Oh there it is. 17:17
- Mm. - Want one Annie? 17:18
It's a very soft lamb flavor. 17:21
- [Steven] Very light. 17:23
- Yeah. 17:24
Yidi hasn't had one. 17:25
- Actually, the most important thing 17:27
about this dumpling, the wrapper. 17:29
- Which is the same dough as the noodles. 17:31
- This is a lot of food. 17:34
- This is a fun amount. 17:35
- Cheers. - Cheers. 17:37
(slurping sounds) 17:39
- Delicious noodle, yeah. 17:42
- I always love a noodle 17:43
that you can just stuff in your face. 17:45
- [Adam] You guys are monsters. 17:49
- Are we monsters? - I'm sorry. 17:50
- I see Annie going like this with the headphones. 17:51
It's all right, it's a lot of slurping going on. 17:53
- I honestly have never heard of tomato egg before today. 17:56
- This is kind of crazy because it's like combining 17:59
all of these flavors from my childhood. 18:01
Just all of those things are just like, whoa. 18:04
You just like (exhales). 18:06
- [Annie] Steven, that's Ratatouille. 18:09
- That's Ratatouille? 18:10
I still haven't seen that movie. 18:12
(slurping sounds) 18:14
- A thousand types of noodles, approximately. 18:16
- So comforting. 18:18
Very, very good noodle dish. 18:19
- Before we go to our next noodle place, 18:21
we're going to a place called Bistro Na's 18:23
that does Beijing specialty desserts. 18:26
- Yes. 18:28
- And this place is recommended by our good friend Yidi. 18:29
Do you want to finish that before we, 18:33
yeah this is the biggest Lazy Susan I've ever seen. 18:35
- Choo-choo. 18:37
- Okay. 18:39
I said, "Yidi, where should we get some deserts?" 18:40
And she said, "You have to go to Bistro Na's." 18:42
Why is that? 18:44
- They have food from my hometown Beijing. 18:45
I eat here a lot to cure my homesick, 18:47
and their dessert is something I grew up eating 18:50
so I figured you guys should try it. 18:53
- [Andrew] Wow. 18:55
- [Steven] Okay. 18:56
- Here you go, guys. 18:57
- So this is how Yidi lives. 18:58
I know exactly what I want, 18:59
but I want to ask Yidi what we should eat. 19:01
- The donkey roll. 19:04
- [Andrew] The donkey roll. 19:05
- [Yidi] Yes. 19:06
- [Andrew] Okay, do you want to start with the donkey roll? 19:06
- That's not the best one Yidi, you're wrong. 19:09
I'm a sesame roll kind of guy. 19:11
(soft jazzy music) 19:13
- Mm. 19:16
- Mm, good. 19:18
- Before we enjoy the rest of these deserts, 19:20
let's enjoy a noodle fact. 19:23
- Noodle fact for your noodle. 19:24
- Oh wow, aren't all facts noodle facts? 19:26
- Yeah. 19:29
- Because they improve your noodle. 19:30
- I did that joke just now. 19:32
- The Chinese, generally speaking, 19:34
don't dry their pasta, but Italians do. 19:36
- I've never made that distinction. 19:39
- For our spaghetti episode, we saw spaghetti extruded 19:41
but they allowed it to dry before boiling. 19:45
Whereas at Lao Xi'er, it extruded straight into the water. 19:47
I think it's because it's not optimized 19:51
for that al dente flavor that you get from drying. 19:53
- It explains so much of why I like 19:56
Chinese noodles more than pasta. 20:00
- Yeah? 20:02
- 'Cause they're just-- 20:02
- Squishier. 20:03
- Squishier, yes. 20:04
- So for our next noodle stop, 20:06
we're going to see Bugra at Dolan's Uyghur Cuisine 20:07
where we're going to be trying their Big Plate Chicken. 20:10
Before we have that, 20:12
we're gonna eat the rest of these desserts. 20:14
- Okay so cut the camera, let us go to town. 20:15
- I like it. 20:20
- Mm. 20:21
(upbeat instrumental music) 20:23
What is Uyghur cuisine? 20:27
- The Uyghur region is located as 20:28
middle point of the Silk Road. 20:30
It's influenced by the Persian, 20:32
the Indian, Turkish and Chinese. 20:33
Many people ask, "You guys have kebab, 20:36
and you guys have some wok dish?" 20:38
"How did you invent this?" 20:40
But actually this is original Uyghur food. 20:41
Our chef, Alerken, is going to do all dishes today. 20:43
- What are the highlight dishes of Uyghur cuisine? 20:46
- In ancient times, the Uyghur people do kebab in desert. 20:48
So you make a fire, and you make that tower, 20:51
and its shape is like that fire. 20:53
Polo is very traditional braised rice and meats, 20:56
carrots, raisins together. 20:59
Manta, it looks like Chinese dumping but bigger. 21:01
The dough is very thin. 21:05
It's stuffed with beef and onions and spices 21:06
- So talking about the Big Plate Chicken. 21:09
So I imagine it's big. 21:12
- Yes, it's huge. 21:13
- I thought this was a noodle episode, Andrew. 21:14
- This is a noodle dish, right? 21:15
- Of course, yeah, it comes with noodle. 21:16
This is like very typical Chinese and Uyghur fusion. 21:18
We fry the chicken with the oil, and peppers and spices: 21:22
cinnamon, cumin, star anise, sichuan pepper. 21:26
So this is spicy. 21:30
We put the potato and we braise half an hour. 21:31
We also make the handmade noodle. 21:34
Noodle, it should be chewy. 21:36
We make the noodle with water, salt and egg whites. 21:38
- Egg whites in the dough? - Egg whites, yes. 21:42
Because it makes it really chewy, and it's thick noodle. 21:44
This is the difference between Big Plate Chicken noodle 21:46
with the other noodle dish. 21:49
It should be thick and wide. 21:50
- [Steven] I noticed with the Big Plate Chicken, 21:52
all the noodles are covered by the things on top. 21:54
Why are you trying to build this mountain of meat 21:57
on top of the noodles? 21:59
- Because the Big Plate Chicken, it has soup, 22:00
so when you eat the noodle, mix it with the soup. 22:03
It's like, amazing taste. 22:05
(cash register dings) 22:07
- [Andrew] I have never seen a teacup like this before. 22:10
- [Bugra] All are handmade. 22:12
- Wow. 22:13
- Handmade? - Yeah. 22:14
Flower tea, this is very common in my country. 22:15
This is also sort of my creation. 22:17
- Cheers. 22:19
- Cheers. - Don't spill the tea. 22:20
- Mm, oh yeah. 22:24
- Ooh. 22:25
- Rose. 22:26
- Is there cinnamon in here? 22:27
- Yes. - Cinnamon. 22:28
- Cardamom. 22:29
- [Bugra] Cardamom. 22:29
- You ready for some Big Plate Chicken Steven? 22:30
- Big Plate Chicken, here we go. 22:32
- My goodness. 22:34
Okay we got one noodle sticking out over here. 22:35
Should we start with chicken? - Yeah. 22:37
- Since this is Big Plate Chicken? 22:39
Wow that smells good. 22:40
(clicks tongue) 22:41
Mm, that's a little spicy, yeah. 22:43
- The taste that comes with it, linger. 22:45
- [Andrew] There we go, a noodle. 22:48
- Oh, I want one of those kinds of noodles. 22:49
That one's been sitting below the weight of the chicken 22:50
Got it, I got it here. 22:53
- It's delicious looking, right? 22:54
(laughs) 22:55
- Cheers - Cheers 22:58
Oh, man. 23:01
- Whoa. 23:02
- The noodle itself is very dumpling like, 23:03
- Dumpling like. - in it's softness. 23:05
- It's like you're eating a dumpling in one noodle. 23:06
- [Andrew] It really is like a soup at the bottom. 23:09
- I know, why don't we have a spoon? 23:11
- I think it's because the noodle is your spoon. 23:13
(spoons clank) 23:15
- (laughs) Sound of spoons. 23:17
- As we say that. 23:18
Thank you so much. 23:20
See this peppercorn here? 23:21
It's all going in. 23:22
Oh that's so good. - Really? 23:24
Okay I need to try it now. - You gotta do it. 23:25
Focus in on the tongue. 23:28
- The heat builds a little bit. 23:29
The numbing peppercorn is there a little bit. 23:30
- I love that, yeah. 23:32
- The addition of cinnamon 23:33
is really surprising and delightful. 23:34
- But it reminds me of Malaysian cuisine. 23:36
A lot of the dishes there are literally marriages. 23:39
There's no better description of this 23:42
than a marriage of dishes. 23:44
- [Andrew] It's delicious. 23:46
- I get it. 23:48
I get why they say stop noodling around, 23:49
because it takes a long time to eat a noodle. 23:51
Is that it? 23:54
Sometimes when you get out of a movie 23:55
and you're like, "I don't know what to say." 23:57
- Like when you finish a good book and you just need to 23:59
take a walk and do nothing. 24:01
- Or like a one and a half hour drive across Los Angeles 24:03
all the way to Beverly Hills. 24:05
- Cause that's where we're going next, 24:07
but before that happens-- 24:08
- Noodle fact. 24:09
Historians believe that Chinese noodles originated 24:10
more than X years ago. 24:12
What is X? 24:14
- 1500 years ago. 24:16
- Now double that and add 1000. 24:17
4000 years ago. - 4000 years ago? 24:20
I wonder what the first shape was. 24:22
You find that funny, Annie? 24:26
- I never thought of that before. 24:27
- Yeah, what was the first noodle shape? 24:28
- Oh, noodle shape? - Oh noodle shape! 24:31
- I thought you were just talking about shapes. 24:32
- Yeah, me too. 24:33
- [Adam] China has been making bread 24:35
longer than they've been making noodles, 24:36
and noodle making stemmed from the ripping of dough 24:38
into boiling water. 24:41
- [Both] Whoa. 24:42
- Okay, going across town. 24:45
♪ Making my way across town ♪ 24:48
Now we're headed to Crustacean, 24:49
a landmark Vietnamese-American spot. 24:51
We're going to be having An's Famous Garlic Noodles, 24:54
and on top of that, Dungeness crab. 24:57
The noodles are the creation 24:59
of the founder of the restaurant, Helene An, 25:00
and she's kept the recipe a secret. 25:03
So they are made in a secret kitchen 25:05
and we can't go in there. 25:06
- We'll be speaking with Chef Tony, 25:07
maybe he can spill the beans on these noodles. 25:09
- That's okay, I mean, Oprah actually filmed here 25:11
and she wasn't allowed in there, 25:13
so we're pretty much Oprah. 25:15
(everybody laughs) 25:17
(upbeat electronic music) 25:18
- I understand that your kitchen operates 25:22
somewhat in secret. 25:24
- Somewhat. 25:25
We have a kitchen within a kitchen. 25:26
That kitchen's for family members 25:28
and people that have worked in the restaurant 25:30
for over 10 years. 25:32
- Why? 25:33
- My boss, Chef Helene An, she first started 25:34
way back in the 70's in this little deli, 25:37
and slowly putting Asian flairs here and there. 25:39
She knew she was on to something, 25:42
so she wanted to keep it within the family. 25:44
We have about four items that come from secret originally. 25:46
The garlic noodles have been around since we've been open. 25:48
She saw that everybody loves spaghetti and Parmesan 25:50
so that was her inspiration. 25:53
She was just named the mother of Asian fusion. 25:55
This is the signature dish of the restaurant. 25:57
- Asian fusion has been looked at in a variety of ways. 25:58
Where I grew up, it was looked down on, 26:01
but you're doing Asian fusion, 26:03
and it's right here in Beverly Hills. 26:04
How are you able to flip the narrative of Asian fusion food? 26:06
- I think it was just something cool 26:08
for people to hate on fusion, 26:09
but the way I became very comfortable about it 26:11
is when I spoke with Helene. 26:13
She didn't really know what fusion was. 26:15
She was just like, "I'm just cooking 26:17
the way I want to cook." 26:18
Now we're grabbing from different regions of the world, 26:19
as long as you're doing it intelligently, 26:21
the end result should be pretty tasty. 26:23
- So this is our last stop in our video, 26:25
it's the three dollar signs, 26:28
but the noodles themselves are not really 26:29
the expensive thing here, right? 26:32
- Generally if you're getting a crab 26:34
you're always getting a garlic noodle, 26:35
but they're two separate items on the menu. 26:36
I would say 99.9% of people that get the crab, 26:38
they always get a noodle. 26:41
- To enjoy the noodles to their best. 26:42
- This is not a question, you have to get the crab. 26:44
(both laugh) 26:46
- Gotcha. 26:47
(cash register dings) 26:48
- Whoa. 26:52
This smells like my fire alarm is about to go off. 26:54
(laughs) 26:56
- Look at that. 26:57
It feels like something you shouldn't do at a restaurant 26:58
this nice but I do just want to go (throaty laugh). 27:00
- Caviar cheers. 27:04
- Oh man, that's so awesome. 27:07
- Actually, that makes a lot of sense. 27:09
- Here we go. 27:11
- Here we go. 27:11
Ah, there's the hit of garlic. 27:12
It takes about two seconds. 27:13
- [Tony] One crab in the shell, 27:15
and one crab picked out the shell. 27:17
- Nice. - Wow. 27:18
And bibs? 27:20
No way. 27:21
- Yes! 27:21
This is way more simple than I thought. 27:23
- [Andrew] Right. 27:27
- Cheers. 27:28
- Oh yeah, that's really good. 27:32
I just want to eat this whole bowl. 27:33
- It's so fluffy. 27:36
Squishy, fluffy noodle. - Fluffy noodle, yeah. 27:38
I'm gonna do a little bit of crab. 27:40
- [Steven] Isn't this the life? 27:42
Pre-picked crab. 27:43
(sensual blues music) 27:44
- It's really good, right? 27:55
- This is my fantasy as a kid 27:57
of what a dish should taste like. 27:59
- This is so close to the buttered noodles 28:01
you would eat as a kid, right? 28:04
Add on the best version of a buttery thing, 28:05
buttery crab meat. 28:08
- Pre-picked crab, okay, 28:10
is like birds who get to eat food 28:12
that's already been chewed up for them by their parents. 28:15
- Talking about when a mama bird chews up food 28:16
and then throws it up into the chickling's mouth. 28:19
- The idea of having food prepared for you. 28:22
- It's a mothers love, right? 28:25
It's great. 28:28
- Now how do you make it, that's the question. 28:28
(somber blues music) 28:31
Long noodles, long life. 28:36
- Long day. 28:38
- That's what they say. 28:39
One thing that was your favorite thing 28:40
that was not a noodle today? 28:41
- The noodle extruder at Lao Xi'er Noodle House 28:43
that was like a old fashioned manual train cart. 28:46
- At Crustacean, below the floor, there's a fish tank 28:50
and there's a lot of beautiful Koi fish living down there. 28:54
Okay Andrew, which noodle was the most worth it 28:57
at it's given price? 28:59
- I'll give a honorable mention to 29:00
the Cat's Ear Noodle from Lao Xi'er. 29:02
My Worth It winner is gonna go to 29:04
Dolan's Uyghur Cuisine, 29:05
- Oh my gosh. - So good. 29:07
- Oh my gosh, I can't believe it, we agree for once. 29:08
I love Crustacean, and I was gonna say Lao Xi'er 29:10
because the vast experiences you get in one bowl. 29:12
My Worth It winner goes to Dolan's Uyghur Cuisine. 29:15
- Adam, who is your Worth It winner? 29:18
- [Adam] Lao Xi'er. 29:20
- Annie, who is your favorite noodle from today? 29:20
- Crustacean 29:22
- [Andrew] And Yidi, while we're in the neighborhood. 29:23
- Donkey Roll! 29:25
(laughs) 29:26
- Well that does it for episode two 29:27
in our end of year miniseries. 29:29
Come back next week for a very crispy conclusion. 29:31
- It also has soft ends. 29:34
- [Adam] Fried Chicken Sandwich. 29:36
- Aw, come on Adam. 29:37
(gentle piano music) 29:38
- All right Steven, this will be 29:49
our final Worth It episode for 2019. 29:51
- Today on Worth It, 29:54
we're going to be trying three fried chicken sandwiches 29:55
at three drastically different price points 29:58
to find out which one is the most Worth It at its price. 30:00
- I think we're experiencing, at the moment, 30:02
a little bit of a fried chicken sandwich craze. 30:04
We thought we'd investigate the issue 30:07
and do fried chicken sandwiches ourselves. 30:09
- I like what you said, "investigate." 30:11
- Oh look at that, fresh asphalts. 30:13
- The way you say words (laughs) 30:15
- It's look golden and delicious 30:18
the way fresh fried chicken does. 30:20
Doesn't that look delicious? 30:21
That looks tasty, 30:23
what? 30:25
So the first place we're heading to is 30:27
The Window At American Beauty. 30:29
Chef Elisha is going to be showing us 30:31
their fried chicken sandwich. 30:34
American Beauty is a steakhouse. 30:36
And during the day, they have a to-go window 30:37
that does things like burgers, fries, 30:40
fried chicken sandwiches, obviously. 30:43
- I like that a lot, it feels very New York. 30:45
I don't know where I'm going with that. 30:48
I just like it, I just like New York. 30:49
(atmospheric music) 30:51
- What is The Window? 30:53
- So The Window is our daytime operation 30:54
where we serve delicious food 30:56
at a very affordable price. 30:57
- [Steven] As I understand it, 30:59
this chicken sandwich is under six bucks? 30:59
- [Chef Elisha] Yeah, it's five dollars and 50 cents. 31:01
- Wow. - That is crazy. 31:03
- I don't know if I'd say we're competition 31:04
with fast-food, but we're trying to hit around 31:05
the price point of the regular fast-food chains. 31:07
We're making everything in house 31:09
and the idea is to deliver hospitality to our guests, 31:10
whether they order the fried chicken sandwich at the window 31:13
or they're ordering our steaks at night. 31:16
So we butterfly the chicken, so it spreads out, 31:18
we pound it so it's the same thickness around. 31:20
- [Andrew] I saw that you were also scoring the meat 31:23
before you were pounding it. 31:25
- [Chef Elisha] By scoring it, we're both helping 31:27
the buttermilk and the seasoning penetrate, 31:28
but also we're getting a little bit more surface space, 31:30
so there's a little bit more crunchy parts. 31:32
And then we just fry it. 31:34
We have the awesome Martin's Potato Rolls. 31:35
The jalapeño aioli, which gives a little bit 31:37
more fat and some heat. 31:39
And then we have this very simple slaw 31:41
that gives a little freshness. 31:42
Just cabbage, some carrots, red onion, 31:44
and a very simple red wine vinaigrette. 31:46
- [Steven] Is that what you would say 31:48
makes a perfect fried chicken sandwich? 31:49
Is it the balance of all of those things together? 31:51
- [Chef Elisha] For me, I think it's really 31:53
the combination of it all. 31:54
It's an evolution while you're eating it. 31:55
And as it goes, it's kinda all compliments itself. 31:56
And I think that really makes for a better 31:59
and more enjoyable eating experience. 32:01
(cash register dings) 32:03
- [Announcer] Order for Worth It. 32:05
- That's our order! 32:07
- Thank you guys! - Thank you. 32:08
- Oh, that smells amazing. - Oh! 32:09
- Sorry, I just want that. - That was a hard hit. 32:11
There's something about food in a box 32:13
like this that I just love every time. 32:15
- Mm-hmm. 32:17
- It's like the American Bento Box. 32:17
- Nice. 32:20
- Do you eat ketchup with your fries? 32:21
- I do. 32:22
- Okay, hold on, I got you. - All right. 32:23
I took a fry, I mean what? 32:27
- You what? 32:28
You're lucky I don't dump this ketchup on your head. 32:29
- Do it, I dare you. 32:31
Fries. 32:33
(video game music) 32:34
- Mm, incredible fry. 32:36
It's crunchy like cereal is crunchy. 32:38
- [Steven] Okay, lets go sando' time. 32:40
- Oh, look at that. - Whoa! 32:42
It feels fluffier than I thought. 32:44
- That's that potato bun. 32:47
Cheers. - Cheers. 32:48
(upbeat music) 32:49
- Mm! - Mm. 32:51
Yeah, that was a really good first bite. 32:53
- [Andrew] Wow. 32:55
- Mm! 32:58
That was a really good second bite. 32:59
- I have a feeling every bite is going to be good. 33:00
- What I'm realizing about this bun, 33:02
it's so soft and fluffy that it's doing its job 33:04
in like making the fried chicken 33:08
the real star of the show. 33:10
- So this is the, "why are we having 33:11
fried chicken sandwich" as a question, you know? 33:13
'Cause we've done fried chicken before, 33:15
but the bun just dials the whole thing back 33:17
into like soft doughnut territory. 33:19
- Mm-hmm. - Which I kind of like. 33:21
You know what this does kind of remind me of? 33:22
- Tell me. - I think you're going 33:24
to be mad that you didn't think of this. 33:25
- No, I think this is going to be 33:26
less exciting than I thought. 33:27
- The peking duck bun that we had in New York. 33:28
That soft, squishy bun with a delicious meat 33:31
and condiment and crispy vegetable. 33:35
Plus the cucumber and the sauce 33:38
that adds a little sweetness. - Yeah, yeah. 33:40
You're right, okay, yeah. 33:42
(video game music) 33:44
- American Beauty, what a beautiful time in America. 33:48
- That's too easy for you, I'm disappointed. 33:53
- Okay, so before our next proper 33:55
fried chicken sandwich, we're actually gonna 33:58
have a bonus piece of fried chicken. 33:59
(Steven sighs) 34:01
Friend of the show, David Chang, 34:02
has a number of fried chicken sandwich shops called Fuku. 34:03
They have an off menu, mega spicy, fried chicken 34:07
designed to taste better as a cold product. 34:10
It's like a food pun but in the language 34:14
of flavor and temperature. 34:17
- It sounds more like an oxymoron. 34:19
- It's like a fun-- 34:21
- You'd have to be an oxy-moron to eat this. 34:22
Aah! 34:25
- Okay you know what's terrifying? 34:27
Black gloves that come with your food. 34:29
Here it is, oh, whew! 34:31
Put your gloves on. (laughs) 34:34
This guy's walking his dog and is just looking 34:36
at three guys putting on black gloves. 34:38
(dramatic music) 34:40
Oh my god! 34:42
It looks upsetting. 34:43
- Why! 34:45
Oh! 34:46
- It looks like mummified meat. 34:47
- Why is it so dark? (laughs) 34:49
- Adam, I wish you had that bottle of ranch on standby. 34:52
- Oh! (laughs) 34:55
- I thought we were just dipping! 34:56
(laughs) Adam! 34:59
This is so bizarre. 35:00
- Oh, it's cold! (laughs) 35:02
- Cheers! 35:03
(dramatic music) 35:05
Oh, it's not too bad. 35:08
Oh! 35:09
- Oh, it's like cinnamon-sugary too. 35:11
- Oh! - Oh! 35:14
- It's bad. 35:15
- There's pickles that you can have along side (sighs). 35:16
(sighs) No, I don't like this. 35:19
- Give me the fact! 35:21
- Okay. 35:22
Hot-cold fried chicken fact time. 35:23
Mm, that's good, an ice, slush drink. 35:25
- It's making it worse. 35:29
- Can you say hot-cold fact chicken time? 35:30
- Hot-Cold Fact Chicken time! 35:32
(Adam sneezes) 35:33
(laughs) Oh, wow! 35:34
- The chemical in spicy foods that 35:36
makes something spicy is capsaicin. 35:38
Capsaicin is known to increase energy, reduce appetite, 35:41
increase salivation, and release endorphins. 35:44
(laughing) 35:48
- Ability to taste reduces in higher temperatures, 35:49
above 86 degrees Fahrenheit, 35:51
as well as lower temperatures below 68 degrees Fahrenheit. 35:53
Oh! 35:55
- I think this chicken might be right in the center. 35:57
You're still going? 36:00
- Oh my goodness! 36:01
- So we're on our way downtown to Pikunico. 36:02
We're going to see chef Kuniko 36:04
and have her fried chicken sandwich. 36:06
- Okay, is it spicy? 36:08
- No, it's okay. 36:10
- Okay, good. - Yeah. 36:11
(atmospheric music) 36:12
- Pikunico means picnic plus Kuniko. 36:15
So everything is in a to-go box and you can eat outside 36:18
of the restaurant, like a picnic. 36:22
- Why did you choose fried chicken 36:24
as the cornerstone of the menu? 36:25
- I grew up with it. 36:27
My grandma never liked cooking, 36:28
so we'd always go buy it. (laughs) 36:30
When I came here, I ate this southern style fried chicken, 36:32
with thick, thick crust and I loved it, so I did a hybrid. 36:36
Light, as Japanese, but also with a crunchiness. 36:41
Normally it's a wheat flour, 36:45
but we do brown rice and potato starch. 36:47
That's maybe the most special part of our fried chicken. 36:49
Our fryer don't carry any gluten. 36:52
A lot of my friends' kids, they have serious allergy, 36:55
and they never eaten fried chicken. 36:58
So I said, okay you can come here. 36:59
- [Andrew] Why did you want to offer a sandwich option 37:02
for your fried chicken? 37:04
- I'm trying to belong here. (laughs) 37:05
- [Andrew] Do you ever find those in Japan? 37:08
- [Kuniko] I don't believe it's a popular thing. 37:10
Japanese just pack rice balls, 37:13
and fried chicken, and pickles. 37:15
And that's our picnic. 37:17
But a lot of people said, "Kuni, come on, 37:19
like you're living in the United States, 37:21
everyone loves sandwich, come up with a great one." 37:23
I wanted to make the sandwich as special as I could. 37:26
We created a golden bun which carries turmeric. 37:29
The turmeric is antiinflammatory. 37:32
So you can lessen your feeling 37:34
of I'm eating fried chicken today. (laughs) 37:37
To me, sandwich is about combination. 37:39
The soft bun, crunchy chicken, acid from lemon vinaigrette. 37:42
I want it to have everything in one bite. 37:46
- I mean you say one bite, but I've seen the sandwich, 37:49
and it's quite tall. - Yes. 37:51
- How do I eat that with one bite? 37:54
- Smoosh. (laughs) 37:56
(cash register dings) 37:58
- We've come for the sandwiches, but we also got a salad 38:01
that we're going to try first. 38:03
- [Kuniko] I like my seaweed and cucumber salad. 38:04
Our seaweed is from Japan and it's salt cured. 38:07
The texture is not like dehydrated, 38:10
like wakame, like paper thin. 38:12
It's very meaty and satisfying. 38:15
I eat my salad everyday. 38:17
- Cheers. 38:19
(atmospheric music) 38:20
- Mm! - Wow. 38:22
- I'm not sure I've ever had this type of seaweed before. 38:24
It is denser and meatier. 38:28
- Pause button, back to the sandwich. 38:30
She gave us good advice to smoosh. 38:33
- Look at how juicy the chicken is. 38:36
Do you see the juices coming out? 38:39
It's the hidden benefit of the squish. 38:41
- Cheers. 38:43
- That's awesome. 38:47
- Wow. 38:48
- That's a face wiper, for sure. 38:50
It's a very good sandwich. 38:52
- Dude, the star of this fried chicken sandwich. 38:53
- Say it on three, one 38:56
- Two, three. 38:57
- The pickles. - The bread. 38:58
Oh, defend your case because I think you're wrong. 39:00
- It's the sourness that makes you want all the other stuff. 39:02
- True, but come on, look at this bread. 39:05
It's squishy, has a nice bite, it's not falling apart. 39:08
- It's a beautiful sandwich. 39:11
The texture of this stuff, almost like moss-like. 39:13
You ever look at moss and think, I bet that's tasty? 39:16
- I never think that, no. - Really? 39:19
I think it'd be a cool texture to eat. 39:21
It's like a hanging garden. 39:22
- It's like that plant up there. 39:24
I think this makes like potentially the perfect sandwich. 39:26
You've got this fried chicken that's delicious. 39:29
But then, the things surround it so you're not 39:31
feeling like greasy. 39:34
- [Andrew] It's not greasy at all. 39:35
- There's fried chicken is on this side, right. 39:36
So she's like, okay, what do I put on this side 39:38
to balance it out. 39:40
- Sprouts, miso jam, pickles, a little too far. 39:41
- Oh, okay. 39:44
- Jalapeños on this side, boom. 39:45
I feel like we've said some good stuff. 39:47
- Ooh. 39:50
- Dirty move Adam. 39:51
That's a dirty, dirty move. 39:53
Are you using the one that you 39:54
didn't already steal a piece of chicken out of? 39:55
I see, I know how you work. 39:58
Pikunico, what do you think? 40:01
- The bread, it's so good. 40:02
- Ooh, I feel like a picnic. 40:03
Does that make any sense? 40:05
- No. 40:07
Before we go to our next spot, 40:08
Fried Chicken Sandwich Fact time! 40:09
- Fried Chicken Sandwich fact. 40:11
- Though it's not currently on the menu, 40:13
for a time, KFC offered the Double Down sandwich, 40:15
I remember that one. 40:19
Which consisted of two fried chicken filets 40:20
doubling as the bun 40:23
and the filling was bacon, cheese, and sauce. 40:25
I actually have a very fond memory of this. 40:28
- You actually ate this thing? 40:31
- I tried it. 40:32
It was as amazing as it sounds. 40:33
- Really? 40:36
I remember that thing, that was madness. 40:36
It's like, just eat food guys, what are you doing? 40:38
Is it even a sandwich at that point 40:41
or are you just picking up food? 40:43
Like if I just pick up a steak and eat it with my hand, 40:44
is that a sandwich? 40:47
- [Adam] If you have two of them. 40:49
- We started this video at a steakhouse, 40:50
now we're going to a seafood restaurant. 40:52
- Oh, okay 40:55
- We're on our way to Son of a Gun, where Chef Greg 40:56
is going to show us their fried chicken sandwich, 40:58
and probably a couple other seafood treats. 41:01
(electronic music) 41:04
Is this modeled after a certain style 41:06
or like genre of seafood? 41:09
- Definitely, Jon and Vinny the owners are from Florida, 41:10
the vibe of it is the Florida fish shack. 41:13
- [Steven] I wanna know why you put a fried chicken sandwich 41:15
on a menu of a seafood restaurant. 41:16
- [Greg] Well our menu is really diverse, 41:18
which is like the way we like to eat. 41:20
Living in Los Angeles, you have so much diversity, 41:22
there's amazing food in Korea Town, amazing Chinese food in 41:25
San Gabriel, you name it we got it here. 41:27
So this is what influences our menu, 41:29
we're not an Italian restaurant, 41:31
we're not a French restaurant, 41:33
we just take something that we're into at the time 41:34
and try to develop a dish. 41:36
- [Andrew] The tuna dish for example-- 41:38
- [Greg] Exactly yeah, that tuna dish is influenced by 41:39
Peruvian cuisine, first we take market avocado, 41:42
red onion, cilantro, and some tortilla chips. 41:44
Mix all that together, and then the tuna has been 41:47
pounded out into carpaccio, so it makes the texture 41:50
of the fish really nice. 41:52
So that gets wrapped around the avocado mix, 41:54
and then the bottom of the bowl is a leche de tigre, 41:56
so, you eat it with a spoon 41:58
and get a little bit of the tuna, 42:00
the avocado, the tortilla chips all together. 42:01
- Ohh. 42:03
Thank you. - Wow. 42:05
- [Steven] This is delightful. 42:06
- This reminds me of our time 42:07
at Pacific Seas, remember that? 42:08
I don't exist in this bar as you know me. 42:10
- We've shared like one donut. 42:13
(clapping) 42:14
Wait, whoa. 42:17
- Thank you. - Okay 42:18
These are the coolest straws I've ever seen. 42:20
- This is a drink you don't have to cheers. 42:21
'Cause how would you? 42:23
- Like this. 42:24
(upbeat music) 42:26
- I'm concerned because I taste no alcohol in there. 42:27
But I definitely feel alcohol in here. 42:30
- [Steven] Alright, oyster time. 42:33
- [Andrew] Mmm, yeah, mignonette me. 42:34
- [Steven] And then you want a horse radish or are you good? 42:37
- [Andrew] Yeah. 42:38
- Cheers 42:39
Ohhh - Mmm, Hell yeah 42:42
- Okay turn it up - Oh my god. 42:44
I think oysters are the most Disney princess food. 42:46
It's like a spoon made of an ocean fish, 42:49
and so it makes me feel like I'm in Little Mermaid. 42:52
You get what I mean? 42:55
- No, I'm not, I'm not picking up what you're laying down. 42:56
- People are shaking their heads 42:58
but those people haven't been having scorpion bowl. 42:59
- [Steven] Whoa. 43:03
- [Andrew] This is the wildest looking thing I've ever seen. 43:04
It looks like a whole brain on a plate. 43:06
- Whoa. - Wow. 43:09
(upbeat music) 43:11
- Goddammit that's good. 43:15
Oh my God, that's good. 43:17
- [Steven] Look at how much avocado is in this. 43:18
- And this juice at the bottom is like spicy orange juice. 43:20
- This tastes more like a cocktail than this. 43:24
- Yeah. - Hold up. 43:26
- [Andrew] No Steven, you're a mad man. 43:27
(slurping sounds) 43:30
(Steven coughs) (Andrew laughs) 43:32
- [Greg] A lot of people have asked if 43:33
we could make a cocktail out of the leche de tigre 43:35
- I was saying, it tastes more like a cocktail 43:37
than the scorpion bowl does. - I said that, not you. 43:40
- [Greg] We take a free-range chicken breast, 43:41
brined overnight in some lemon and herbs, 43:43
bread it with a three-step breading process, 43:46
seasoned flour into buttermilk, and then we make crumbs 43:48
out of the flour and the buttermilk, so it gives it 43:51
a little bit of a crispy texture when we fry the chicken. 43:53
Then let it rest, let the juices reabsorb in, and then we 43:56
use red rooster aioli which is red rooster hot sauce from 43:59
Louisiana and it's not Sriracha, it's more like Tabasco. 44:02
And then we make a slaw with market vegetables, 44:05
we make some bread and butter pickles in house here, 44:08
so we'll make the dressing for the cabbage slaw 44:10
from the vinegar that comes from the pickles. 44:13
(cash register dings) 44:15
- Okay - Here's the fried 44:17
chicken sandwich guys. 44:18
- Thank you - Okay, that's actually 44:19
not at all what I expected to see. 44:20
There's pickles embedded into the slaw. 44:22
- It's my kind of slaw. 44:25
Have you ever seen a more beautiful chicken sandwich? 44:26
Commercial perfect. 44:28
Okay, I'm gonna split it for us. 44:29
You're gonna love the feel of this bun, I can already tell. 44:30
- Yeah? 44:32
- Yeah, you're a big bun guy. 44:33
- Oh, these dishes are actually very similar. 44:35
There's like the fattiness and the acidity. 44:37
- Yeah - Fattiness, acidity 44:39
- Fattiness, acidity - Oyster 44:41
- Fattiness, acidity 44:42
- Fattiness, acidity 44:43
- Whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa 44:45
- You're gonna set me up like that, I'm gonna dunk hard. 44:46
How's that for a sports analogy? 44:49
Cheers Steven - Cheers. 44:51
(groovy music) 44:52
Oh no. 44:55
You know you had a good time 44:56
when the sandwich is in shambles. 44:57
- What do you think about the texture of the fried crust? 44:59
- It sounds like you wanna talk about the texture 45:03
of the fried crust, Andrew. 45:04
- Yeah, you know how there's different levels of crunch. 45:06
A crunchier crunch would be like leaves, high pitch crackle, 45:08
then there's also lower pitch crackle, 45:11
like stepping into snow. 45:14
I think this is more like snow crackle 45:15
and the other chicken we've had is more like leaf crackle. 45:18
Was that too long winded? 45:21
- I wanna spend a day in your head. 45:22
Just like, what are you thinking? 45:23
(groovy music) 45:25
- All right Steven. 45:28
- We did it again. 45:29
- Not only did we have three fried chicken sandwiches, 45:30
but this also concludes a three episode set for us. 45:33
The first one had buns, the last one had buns. 45:36
In effect it was a sandwich of its own. 45:38
What was your favorite thing in this episode 45:41
that was not a fried chicken sandwich? 45:42
- The giant ropes that held 45:44
the hanging light bulbs at Pikunico. 45:46
- Hmm yes. 45:48
We don't often get to talk about restaurant decor. 45:49
I kinda have a similar favorite thing 45:52
that wasn't a fried chicken sandwich. 45:53
- Aha. 45:55
- The bathroom faucets at American Beauty. 45:55
It looked like a swan throwing up the water into your hands. 45:57
- All right, which fried chicken sandwich 46:02
was the most worth it at its given price? 46:04
- My Worth It winner goes to The Window at American Beauty. 46:07
That fried chicken sandwich is everything I wanted 46:09
on a Martin's Potato Roll, 46:12
which is near and dear to my heart. 46:13
- You're not often wrong on the show, but you're wrong today 46:15
- Oh (bleep) 46:17
- My Worth It winner goes to Pikunico. 46:19
That fried chicken sandwich was so smoosh-able. 46:22
- Yeah. 46:25
The smooshing today was pretty excellent. 46:26
Adam, who's your Worth It winner? 46:28
- [Adam] Pikunico 46:29
- Adam picks Pikunico. 46:30
A good pick unico. - Unico. 46:31
- And that's gonna be it for 2019. 46:35
Thanks to everybody who works on this show 46:36
to make it happen, most of them are not here. 46:38
- And thank you all for watching. 46:40
- Yeah - We appreciate it. 46:42
We'll be back. 46:43

- Comments of this video 46:51
- We're probably reading them right now 46:52
as you're watching this. 46:54
I am also watching. 46:55
Oh yeah, what did we learn about fried chicken? 46:57
- Its delicious. 46:59
- Well fried chicken sandwiches may continue 47:00
to be eaten the world round, 47:02
at least we'll know that they taste good. 47:04
Solved. (laughs) 47:07

歌词与翻译

[中文]
- 我们回来了第二部分 我们的值得台湾系列。
今天,我们做汤。
- 台湾风格。
这太棒了,因为台湾太热了,
但是,他们喜欢这里的汤。
- 早餐吃的, 午餐和晚餐,
有很多美味佳肴可供尝试。
但在我们到达那里之前,
史蒂文我们在哪里?
- 我们在井仔脚 铺着瓷砖的盐田。
英加是吗?
- 井仔脚。
- 历史上是台湾最早的
产盐区之一。
海水进来, 太阳把它蒸发了,
,你就只剩下盐了。
说到咸味液体。
- 汗?
- 没有。 - 哦。
- 我们正在做汤。
- 今天值得,
我们将尝试 三份台湾汤
大幅 不同的价位
来找出哪一个是最合适的 最值得它的价格。
- 风太大了。
- 台风刚刚过去。
- 我们正在前进一点 台南市北
到哪里,英加?
- 我们要去嘉义 去林丛茗玉堂喝点鱼汤
- 林是我的姓氏, 聪明很聪明,
所以我们要, 就像,我的智能版本
Fish Place。 - 哦哇。
这将是一次特别的享受。
(爵士音乐)
- 台湾很热。
- 是的。
- [史蒂文]汤是一种非常热的食物。
为什么台湾人这么爱喝汤?
台湾是一个贫穷的地方。
更容易有饱腹感 在饭菜中添加汤。
我们过去一直供应这汤 距离我祖父的时代已有60年了。
这的特别之处在于我们 一口气煮100份。
味道只能通过使用来获得 这么大量的成分。
丰富食材的本质是 浓缩在一碗汤里。
- 汤里是什么鱼?
我们主要用鲢鱼 我们的汤里还有三文鱼。
鲢鱼是台湾本土河鱼。
我们的三文鱼是进口的,味道不错 深受美食家的欢迎。
我们的汤底是用猪骨和 水,从早上 8 点到晚上 9 点做饭
同时,准备其余的原料。
纳帕卷心菜
大蒜
洋葱
非转基因豆腐
下一步是切碎 鱼并油炸。
为什么鱼是油炸的 然后之后添加?
无需冷藏来保存 那时在台湾的鱼。
我爷爷选择了深- 油炸使鱼脱水。
也有助于吸收汤汁 当浸入汤中时。
我注意到客户可以 带着他们的碗
回来并获取更多肉汤。
这是餐厅的传统。
我们努力像对待家人一样对待我们的客户。 你应该在家里吃得饱饱的。
也感谢广大客户一直以来的支持 我们可以做这么多的菜。
这允许连续流动 汤供大家分享。
(收银机叮当声)
- 哦!
- 哦...
是的...
(史蒂文用外语说话)
- 盘子是做什么用的?
- 鱼骨。
- 哦,鱼骨头。 - 哦...
- 这是你的啤酒吗?
- 是的,这是我的鱼啤酒。
- 干杯,史蒂文。
(瓶子叮当响)
(喇叭音乐)
看看那个标志。
鱼汤啤酒,我惊呆了。
- 普通话干杯是...
(史蒂文说外语)
是吗?
(安德鲁说外语)
- 好吧,这非常出乎意料。
哇,又来了。
- 哇,一千次。
- 这非常令人耳目一新。
- 是的。
- 给我一个词。
- 哇。
- [史蒂文]所以这就是 侯爵作品就在这里。
我只是要咬紧牙关。
(安德鲁满意地呻吟)
- 这就像一道让你敢于
想要别的东西的菜。
你想要蔬菜吗?
繁荣,我们明白了。
你想吃豆腐吗?
忘了它吧。
你想要猪肉吗?
我们就在这里。
你想吃鱼吗?繁荣。
炒吗?我们能做到。
- 是的,当她 列出成分,
这就像 NBA 全明星赛。
我们有豆腐!
接下来,卷心菜!
- 你们准备好了吗?
(史蒂文笑)
嘉义也很出名 火鸡肉酱浇在米饭上。
客户始终会获得以下组合 这里有火鸡饭和鱼头汤。
火鸡饭。
我喜欢这汤, 有了所有这些东西,
他们就像,
“不,你还需要一些火鸡饭。”
- 没错。
如果有一件事我们 在台湾,
你不能让餐厅挨饿。
他们会用食物攻击你。
以最有爱的方式。
- 是的。
(欢快的音乐)
嗯,这只是火鸡肉 和一碗米饭上的脂肪。
太棒了。
如果你不是一个喜欢冒险的食客,
这看起来像是一碗可怕的食物,
但这一切都只是 融入这个柔软的大拥抱中。
我不知道。
味道不错。
这是一种亲切的味道。
- 这正是你的方式 不过用普通话说。
- 真的吗? - 吃得很好,对吧?
味道不错。
(因加说外语)
- 意思是好吃,味道好,是的。
- 让我们传播善意。
(安德鲁用手拍桌子)
- 一旦我吃完这顿饭,
就会很久了 我又可以吃这个了
这让我很难过。
- 我知道,这整个 旅行实际上只是--
- 很伤心。 - 最糟糕的。
(因加说外语)
- 那汤太棒了。
在要炖的汤的彩虹中,
这是在的某个地方 中间像 -
- Stoup? - Stoup
部分,是的。 - 就是这样!
- 所以在我们喝下一碗汤之前,
我们决定在台南的花园夜市买一些零食
- [史蒂文]这是我最喜欢的 夜市请客。
这是一个花生卷 冰淇淋和香菜。
- [安德鲁]什么?
甜点里加香菜?
我想这是有道理的,
我们在甜点中放了薄荷,
那只是
另一片绿叶。 - 哦,我什至没有
想到这一点。
干杯? - 干杯。
- [史蒂文]啊?
啊? - 哦。
啊? - 哦。
我喜欢甜点香菜。
所以我们的下一汤实际上是 会是火锅。
- 火锅事实!
- 考古学家发现了陶罐 两千多年前的
,可能已被使用过 制作火锅的早期迭代
这些是在 中国安徽省。
- 哇,老火锅。
哥们,给我吃火锅,
林家的每个感恩节,
我们总是,总是,总是吃火锅。
- 汤是人类最古老的食物之一
,这是有道理的。
- 是的,只是水,扔一些 把东西放进去然后吃掉。
- 明天,火锅。
英加我们要去哪里?
- 我们要去阿玉牛肉沙沙锅
吃牛肉汤。
- 这就是我所说的。
牛肉汤。
拿起火锅,扔 里面有一些牛肉,
放一些汤进去, 放一些蔬菜进去。
无论你想吃什么,我们都会吃。
(史蒂文咳嗽)
对不起。
我被花生噎住了。
你为什么这么喜欢火锅?
当你享受生活时,生活就是完美的 一锅美味的肉汤和牛肉。
常温牛肉涮锅 以其新鲜而闻名。
牛是在 台湾各地的山。
然后在官办的地方被屠杀 台南市善化区屠宰场。
牛肉直接来自那里 经过宰杀和检查后。
- 您多久收到一次送货?
每顿饭。
每顿饭?
例如,现在供应的牛肉 今天早上的午餐被屠宰了。
因此牛肉有这种天然的 甜味和QQ(耐嚼)口感。
我们看到它是乘出租车到达的。
总是坐出租车来吗?
我们付钱叫出租车来接它,因为 我们店里太忙了。
太酷了,肉 每顿饭都坐出租车。
(大家笑)
熬汤大约需要6-8个小时。
第一层材料是牛骨。
第二层是一堆牛腩。
我们使用大约 264 磅的牛胸肉来做肉汤。
在锅上放一袋 蔬菜和水果各一个。
还有蔬菜 已经在盘子里了吗?
小锅里的蔬菜是 衬托出肉汤的味道。
卷心菜是锅里的明星。
蔬菜确实补充了 使火锅完美。
对于从未经历过的人 以前吃过火锅,
怎么吃?
将牛肉浸入沸腾的汤中 3次/5秒即可食用。
我总是建议先不加调味品吃饭。
第二口,尝试牛肉 一点我们特制的酱汁。
我丈夫负责提取 从牛肉上切下来的主要部分。
新鲜宰杀的牛肉很软, 需要高超的刀术。
他的刀技术真好!每一件 出来的厚度是一样的!
你还有这个猪肉饭。
所有客户都免费?
我的丈夫是一个慷慨的人。
他希望顾客能吃到米饭 搭配美味的牛肉涮锅。
完美组合!
(大家都笑了)
(收银机叮当声)
(爵士乐)
(安德鲁和史蒂文讲话 用外语)
我们在这个节目中吃了很多牛肉,
但这只是其中的一些 我见过的最漂亮的牛肉。
这个颜色太荒谬了。
冷泡乌龙茶。
这是最酷的事情之一。
就像茶雪球。
而且里面有网--
- [史蒂文]不可能!
- [安德鲁和史蒂文]干杯。
- 嗯。
- [安德鲁]你想从这个开始吗?
- [史蒂文]让我们开始吧,肩盖。
- 干杯,史蒂文。
- 哇哦。
- [安德鲁] 一,二,
三。 - 哇。
进去。
一。
两个,哦不!
(安德鲁笑)
- 这闻起来令人难以置信。
- 干杯。
- 哦,那牛肉真好吃。
- 我们刚刚开始 吃非常好的牛排。
- 是的。 - 带汤。
- 然后你就可以吃它了 第二,煮好了。
- 嗯!
- 我也要尝试一下 这次是一块肉,
,但现在把它浸一下。
涮锅,涮锅。
哦。
- 涮锅。
- 太棒了。 - 我可以进去吗?
- 是的。
你绝对应该这样做。 - 好的。
一。
二。
- 哇哦。 - 三。
- 就像你在给肉施洗一样。
(史蒂文欢呼)
- [安德鲁] 下降太棒了。
- 好的。
这样做是正确的。
- 有两种享用牛肉的好方法。
你要么煮得很短
,要么煮很长时间。
这是两全其美的方法。
快煮牛肉还有 超长时间煮牛肉。
- 因为汤是10到12小时,
浸泡在牛骨汤里。
- 关于牛肉就够了。
猪肉碎。 - 猪肉休息。
(安德鲁和史蒂文满意地呻吟)
- 起初这对我来说没有意义。
但是因为牛肉太珍贵了,
它破坏了流动,
所以我不只是压碎我的 一口吃掉一盘牛肉,
就像我想要的那样。
- 嗯,还有,这个 一碗米饭给我带来的舒适感比我的枕头还要
- 什么?
- 我已经使用同一个产品十多年了。
没有它就很难入睡。
- [Adam] 更频繁地更换枕头
。 - 哇。
- 不,我洗。
- 这解释了很多关于你的事情。
- 它就像一只泰迪熊。
我们都有这样的东西。
- 是的,但现在我的是 在我父母的阁楼上,
因为我不再睡觉 八岁以后有了它。
- 你为什么要放弃 有这么舒服的东西吗?
- 好吧,我们要 现在喝汤吧。
我们终于到达了 汤是膳食的一部分。
哦,不过有气味。
- 干杯。
- 哦,那很好。
实际上,它并没有那么强大。
它就像--
- 果味。
- 是的。 - 比如苹果什么的。
这是最好的方法 结束这顿饭。
- 是的,这次漂亮的温和着陆。
这就像当你有美味的酱汁
,你想要一块面包把它擦掉
以得到所有的酱汁。
在这里,你只需喝酱汁即可。
(顾客在后台说话)
- 火锅。
- 那火锅真好吃。
好的,我们已经到了 台中是我们最后的汤。
但在此之前,我们 会喝点冷饮。
- 没错。
我们要去十仁,
我最喜欢的之一 在美国的地方,所以。
即将在台湾拥有它,
它的实际来源地。
- 所以我们有乌龙茶 茶,还有红茶波霸。
忏悔时间。
我不是波霸的超级粉丝。
- 没关系。
- 我只是边吃边喝,我不--
- 这不就是汤吗?
- 边吃边喝汤。
完全不同, 不要把它扭曲了。
- 干杯。
(眼镜叮当声)
嗯。
- 这就是我喜欢的。
不加糖的美味冰茶。
这就是我想要的。
...
我们实际上要吃的是波霸事实,而不是另一个汤事实。
- [史蒂文]波巴事实。
- 波巴茶被发明 20世纪80年代的台中。
- 哦,这里有一个天才 波霸和奶茶在一起。
关于
到底谁发明了珍珠奶茶存在争议。
有多个报告 不同的人,所以。
- 有趣。
我们现在正在前往古巴米的路上,
我们要去见陈厨师
,尝尝她的牛肉面汤。
- [Steven] 台湾的标志性菜肴。
- 我们已经经历过一些了 到目前为止,
多次离开镜头,只是为了我们的船员餐食等,
,这通常是一道非常便宜的菜。
等值五六美元。
但今天的内容是 豪华一点。
- 大约要花30美元,
对于牛肉面来说已经很多了。
但这真的会很棒。
- Gubami 是牛肉面 用台湾话来说。
- 你认为台湾为什么这么喜欢
他们的牛肉面?
- 速度快,而且很奢华。
你有一大碗 面汤和肉。
我从来没有真正去过餐馆 可以做到这三件事。
我想把事情做到最好,
所以当我做面条时,我想要 找出最好的公式。
我们用不同的面粉
进行了近六个月的测试。
我们希望面条是 中间有嚼劲,
但外面也可以 吸收一点汤汁。
我们用的是日本和牛牛腱
,还有调味品 熏骨髓
,在它上面,我们有一些 涮锅的牛小腿
给两个不同的 肉的质地。
- 您的烹饪背景是什么?
比如,你从哪里来?
- 我在巴黎学到的 去美国旅行了一会儿,
,然后我回来了。
我开始学习法语 10年前的餐厅。
非常好的餐饮,它 是我梦想的餐厅。
但这是在台中,很奇怪。
我认为台湾人, 他们喜欢休闲的东西。
我想做一些更小的事情 现在我有酒吧,
我有面馆。
我总是在尝试 做我喜欢的事情。
(陈主厨笑)
看起来很精致, 但我不是故意的。
我只是想把它做好, 然后就变成这样了。
- [史蒂文]嗯。
(收银机叮当声)
- 看看这个。
那不是汤。
我们有豆腐皮,煮熟了 在一些牛肉汤中。
这是萝卜 柠檬和橄榄油。
西葫芦,放入鹅油中。
某种绿豆和 牛肉蘑菇的美味。
- 我知道有很多 美味的东西就在我们面前,
我现在等不及喝汤了,
但我会耐心等待。
(爵士音乐)
哇,哇,哇。
保留汤。
(安德鲁笑)
那太好了。
(安德鲁笑)
- [安德鲁和史蒂文] 绿豆。
(爵士音乐)
- 哦,我没想到 本来就是那样的味道。
- 什么?
(安德鲁笑)
- 这是一种烟熏、猪肉味的绿豆。
豆腐皮。
- 看起来超级多汁。
还有肉。
干杯。
- 这是最好的一个。
- 不,这是最好的。
- 不,不,不,不,不,不。
- [史蒂文]西葫芦。
- 放入鹅油中。
(爵士乐)
每次我吃绿色的东西时,
我都希望它尝起来有味道 像脆蔬菜一样。
相反,它尝起来像脂肪动物。
这太棒了。
- 哇,终于是牛肉了。
(爵士音乐)
- 哦!
- 我准备吃一些 现在牛肉面汤。
- 哦,谢谢。
好吧。 - 闻这个东西!
- 哦...
- 我简直不敢相信。
我简直不敢相信。
- 是的。 - 我不敢相信这一点。
- [安德鲁]这是一碗 30 美元的汤。
- 肉汤欢呼。
(爵士乐)
(安德鲁呼气)
- 好的。
- 我没想到牛肉 味道可能会很清爽。
- 是啊,涮锅?
- 是的,我们开始吧 选择在上面切肉。
(爵士乐)
- 哇。
- 非常美味的牛肉,好吧。
- 天啊!
很好。
我真的刚刚吃了一个 一口熏牛肉三明治。
- 是的。
- 还有果汁 汤汁刚刚喷出来。
英加有一些。
来吧,来吧,来吧。
- 这太好了。
(发出吸食声)
- 这些面条很棒!
有弹性,有嚼劲。
看看那块牛肉。
哇。
天哪,我没想到 就会变得那么柔软。
什么? - 是的。
(工作人员在后台大笑)
- 就像比太妃糖更柔软。
比它更柔和,它在某个地方...
- 你在开玩笑吧!
- 好的,让我们添加骨髓。
这就像涂黄油 已经涂了黄油的面包。
(吸食声音)
(史蒂文呼气)
- 嘎,哇。
包括我们吃过的所有牛排,
这个牛肉,最好的牛肉 我尝过的味道。
最好的部分是什么?
你可以一直吃面条。
这就像通常的牛排,
你只是在吃牛排。
很有趣,但是还可以。
一直吃面条?
(两人都笑了)
- 是的,我经历过很多 以前吃过牛肉面,
,从来都不错,总是这样 满足和安慰。
但这就像,
一个男孩出生在俄亥俄州阿克伦,
授予他选择的权利 14 岁时,

我希望如此。
(说外语)

(说外语)
我们怎样才能得到鸡 从粘土中出来?

我认为它们看起来像 就像一条美味的鱼。
干杯,史蒂文。
鱼之吻。
这是一个好饺子。
- 噢,鱼超级好吃。
- 这看起来像 “Hook”,当 Robin Williams
想象食物时。
你看过这部电影吗?
都是鲜艳的色彩。
帮自己一个忙,去看“Hook”。
您将会度过一段愉快的时光。
您会想起这一刻。
- 我的头发要变成粉红色。
我们不妨 全部三集都是在这里拍摄的。
- 就像起源神话一样,
首先我们要像皇帝一样吃饭,
然后我们就踏上旅程 去发现鸡。

我想说那些人还没有吃过--
- 油炸,用粘土烘烤。
- 塞满猪肉和香料。
- 鸡肉里有猪肉?
- 是的。
- [Inga] 所以现在她只是添加酱汁。
我认为这是蚝油浆。
- 哦。
那味道就像我妈妈的炒饭。
哇,这很奇怪。
- “妈妈?”
(笑)
你知道这只鸡是什么吗?
这是一个时间胶囊。
为了味道。
埋在泥土下,很多 就像一个普通的时间胶囊。
但这也是一道菜--
- 来自明朝。
里面有写信吗?
比如,“亲爱的日记,我的味道还好吗?”
- 是的。
- 非常柔软。
- 非常柔软。
从本质上讲,这道菜只是一盘

- 是的,伙计。
(安德鲁笑)
看起来像来自 “圣诞节前的噩梦。”

几周以来,我一直在 只是恳求人们来
尝尝汉堡; 朋友,同事,任何人。
然后,一些人找到我,

因为这是你的第一次 参加其中一场牛仔竞技表演的时间,
我不想那样对你。

所以在我们下一个双层芝士汉堡之前,
我们实际上会得到 另一个双层芝士汉堡。
我们要去西好莱坞的这家法国餐厅
,名叫Tesse。
我在 Instagram 上看到 为了庆祝国家汉堡日,他们制作了
,我们将其称为
特殊的甜点汉堡。
我们伸出援手, 糕点师莎莉
非常好心地同意重制 它,但这次加倍。
这可能是当天最具视觉吸引力的
汉堡。
(迷人的老式学校音乐)
- 闭上眼睛。 - 好的。
- 伙计,这会让你大吃一惊。
三、二、一,揭晓!
(史蒂文和杰克逊惊呼)

双层芝士汉堡的事实。
- Bob's Big Boy,因在 1937 年销售
第一个双层芝士汉堡而受到赞誉。
该连锁店最初的名称是 Bob's Pantry
,但在被称为 Big Boy 的双层芝士汉堡
发明后,
餐厅更改了名称 夸耀其著名的汉堡。
双层芝士汉堡变得如此出名,
他们更改了餐厅名称。
- [Adam] 重命名这个节目怎么样?

对于我们的下一个双层芝士汉堡,
,我们将前往高地公园的 Burgerlords 去见 Frederick 和 Max,
与这个双层芝士汉堡类似,
下一个双层芝士汉堡的 没有肉做的。
- 我从来没有吃过素食 之前的芝士汉堡。
- 这一集的曲线球。
- 我既害怕又兴奋。
- 害怕和兴奋是 和食物在一起的好地方。
告诉我们什么样的 Burgerlords 是餐厅。
- 我的想法是 有点像传统快餐店的奇特版本
你已经习惯了冰冻 花园汉堡,波托贝洛。
这是相反的,其中 一切都是素食主义者,素食主义者,
,除了牛肉汉堡。
- 您认为
传统牛肉芝士汉堡
更受欢迎,还是素食者和纯素食人群更受欢迎?
- 老实说,大约是 50-50。
- 是吗? - 是的,我们每周都会查看
- [史蒂文]你们是如何开发
这个肉饼的配方的?
- [Max] 一切都有它的作用。
大麦有嚼劲,以及 腰果有很好的嘎吱声。
我们正在烤所有茄子,
将其他蔬菜切成薄片。
这些都和所有的一起炒 平顶上的香料。
在米饭中煮大麦 炊具,配上 kambu 和味噌,
烤坚果,鹰嘴豆,腰果,
,然后全部放入 一批,只是混合在一起。
- [Fred] 一旦天气变冷,就会稳定下来,
然后我们就将它打成球 就像传统的汉堡一样。
我们把它卷在面包粉中,然后我们把它摊开,
所以当面包粉煮熟时 给它一种脆脆的边缘。
- [最大] 帮助保留肉饼 也避免在烤架上燃烧。
- [弗雷德] 所有的工作 出现在开头,
,这样我们就可以非常快地推出它。
平均而言,我指的是我们的门票, 大概五到十分钟。
这就像新快餐。
- [Max] 感觉很快 食物,外表看起来像
,但内部却像 厨房,我们整天都在做饭。
- [史蒂文]现在你已经 解释了这一切,
感觉汉堡店
是最难的事情 为素食者做的事。
就像你为什么想要 解决汉堡店?
- 你知道,这是怀旧之情。
你知道,这是
一家快餐店的食客的体验, 炸薯条和吃汉堡。
这也是为了创建 我们认为
在这里并不存在。
你知道,当我们长大的时候,
有很多时候我们感到被忽视,
所以我们想要 确保每个人都觉得
他们在这里有一个不错的选择。
(收银机叮叮声)
- 为了让我们的体验更圆满,
我们还买了豆腐 鸡块和炸薯条,
薯条王风格。
- 薯条之王,这是一个很好的双关语。
你读过《薯条之王》吗?
(全都笑了) - 天哪。
- 我们无法带你去任何地方。
- 干杯。 - 干杯。
- 啊,这很好。
我们需要餐巾纸。 - 哦,我的天啊。
这是我一生中第一次,
我遇到了一个吃东西乱七八糟的人。
看看那个。
- [杰克逊] 奶酪皮。
- [安德鲁]有奶酪皮。
- 干杯。 - 干杯。
- [史蒂文]蔬菜肿块。
- 这很好。 - 哇。
- 它的味道根本不像植物。
尝起来像真正的牛肉。
- 很热,奶酪味,多汁, 肉味十足,却又没有肉。
所以当你想,“伙计,我现在真的可以去
吃汉堡。”
这能满足那种感觉吗?
- 100%
(笑)
- 你要完成那件事史蒂文吗?
- 我正在努力。
- 放一点辣酱在那里。
- 哦! - 哦!
- 是的,辣酱我。
你知道吗,这真的很好。
这是一个不错的小踢。
它确实让 汉堡的味道。
- 哦,它有一个很好的 踢它,那很好。
- 就像我在一个 现在是不同的宇宙。
素食,在此 宇宙,是常态。
- 确实有点像 我们处于暮光之城场景中,
一点点,就像 回到过去,
但到了另一个现实 每个人都是素食主义者,
,你知道吗?
不错。
你看过《暮光之城》吗?
- [安德鲁] 哇,咬得真好。
- 这太好了。
- 生活充满活力。
- 生活令人兴奋(笑)
- 不仅仅是令人兴奋
- 生活令人兴奋
- 生活。

(笑)
- 那是八个。 - 哦,对不起,八个。

这就是我吃过的肉饼数量。
- 在我们进入最后一个之前 汉堡,是时候再吃一个了 -
- 汉堡事实。
- [安德鲁]双层芝​​士汉堡事实!
- 天哪。 (笑)
- 你想今天读一下事实吗?
- 当然。
巨无霸
全国首发时的售价为49美分。
- 49 美分?
所以你是在告诉我我 可以去麦当劳
吃两块硬币然后再回来 带着巨无霸和一分钱?
- 是的,在 60 年代,当它首次亮相时。
- 哦,抱歉。
- [Adam] 这发生了很长一段时间--
- 早在 60 年代。
- 回到 60 年代,对。
- 我们正在前往 Petit Trois
的路上,在那里我们会看到厨师 Ludo
和他的双层芝士汉堡 被称为“大机械师”。
- 这个大型机甲上有什么?
- 嗯,这是法国人 餐厅,所以酱。
- Petit Trois,这是一个 经典的法式餐厅。
设计和食物非常法式。
- 所以你就有了这个汉堡。
它如何融入经典菜单?
- 在法国,我们吃很多牛排 hach​​e,
你知道,是一个小馅饼,所以我 决定只做一个汉堡,
就像美国人喜欢的那样,你知道吗?
而且看起来也像汉堡。
- [杰克逊] 是什么让 一个真正好的汉堡?
- [Ludo] 需要一个汉堡 酥脆多汁。
当我吃牛排或任何东西时 肉,这就是我想要的。
我想要肉脆
- 它叫Big Mec, 当然是模仿巨无霸的风格,
,对吧?
- 当然,是的,当然。
Mec,在法国,意思是男人,
(说外语)
法国菜最重要的是酱汁,
所以什么是非常重要的 让我把我的汉堡
放在盘子里,在酱汁中游泳,
就像你吃一个 牛排,所以我决定做
一种经典的法式酱,叫做 Bordelaise,
牛肉高汤,里面有很多 葱和红酒酱。
我们大约需要八个小时来做​​,
然后是在我们熟成的切达干酪之后。
你怎么知道我是否要去 放陈年切达干酪
还是美国干酪?
因为我喜欢美国奶酪。
- 真的吗? - 哦,我喜欢它。
- 你喜欢美国奶酪吗?
- 哦,我们不喜欢美国奶酪?
伙计们,加油。 - 有些人不这么认为。
- 当我想到法语时 美食,我认为美食,
或者我认为有点--
- Foufou?
- [史蒂文] 是的,有一点,
我的意思是这个汉堡不是 我想到了什么,对吗?
- 我作为厨师的工作也是 煮人们想要的东西。
混合美式风格很有趣 食物与法国菜。
我建议吃 汉堡用叉子和刀。
就像你说的,非常法国式的 foufou。
- 这是你说的,不是我说的。
- 所以这是刀叉?
- 在法国,我们吃我们的 汉堡用叉子和刀。
好的,伙计们,抱歉,是的,我们愿意。
(收银机叮叮声)
- [史蒂文]就是这样。
- 这真的不同于任何 我以前见过的汉堡。
- 看看它是如何电镀的。
- [杰克逊]它在酱汁池里。
- 是的,它看起来像 昏暗的池塘里的睡莲。
- [史蒂文]你会荣幸吗?
- 天哪,哦,好吧。
- [史蒂文]互联网上的每个人
都会看到你把它减半。
- 我们正在失去吸引力。
- 天啊。 (笑)
- [Andrew] 这是一个 25 美元的芝士汉堡

- [史蒂文]双倍。
- 刺穿整个 确保你咬合的东西。
什么?

天啊,那个酱汁。
- 那个酱汁。 - 太不可思议了。

这就是我想要的汉堡的一切,
但它是素食的。
- 这就是我没有做的一切 知道我想要汉堡。
- 确实,我认为我没有 以前有过这样的酱汁,
,味道浓郁却又诱人。
- 是的,酸味只是 让你渴望更多。
- 是的,确实如此。
- 杰克逊就像,在我吃剩下的汉堡时继续说话
- (轻笑)他正在毁掉我们的汉堡。
- 这就是你的想法吗 昂贵的汉堡
看起来像“值得吗?”
- 不,我认为它看起来会更漂亮。
最昂贵的汉堡,例如 你和基思的那一集,
有很多成分, 比如鹅肝和龙虾。
这个只有牛肉 还有奶酪和酱汁。
就这么简单,您 不需要任何其他东西。
怎么样?
- 我明白你为什么 使用叉子和刀子。
(笑)
- 那么你感觉如何?

今天,我们的重点是 洛杉矶的非意大利面条。
- 今天值得,
我们将尝试 三份美味的面条
,三点大幅 不同价位
来找出哪种面条 以它的价格来说是最值得的。
好的,我们坚持下去 特别是亚洲菜肴。
我们要去的第一个地方 到,我们要去哪里?
- 我们要去老喜儿面馆
看乔和艾伦
,我们正在吃他们的 妻子的特色面条。
- 甜蜜。
非常非常甜蜜。
就像,这个故事很甜蜜。
- 这实际上是一个甜蜜的故事。
(欢快的爵士乐)
你是怎么开始的 这生意一起吗?
- 这是他的梦想。
- 我在洛杉矶找不到我最喜欢的面条。
- 它不同于 你习惯了什么?
- 非常不同。
他想保留原来的 来自我家乡的风格。
山西省,中国西北部。
- [安德鲁]我很好奇 你家乡的面条
有多少种?
- [艾伦] 超过一千种不同。
- 超过一千种不同的风格?
- 是的。 - 这么多。
- [Ellen]猫耳朵面,毛耳朵
在我的家乡我们也做很多。
大多数时候我们都会 配羊肉或牛肉汤。
其实很相似 就像通心粉面条一样。
刀切面是 扁而粗的面条。
我们平时炒的那个面条。
- 我们专注于 妻子的特色面条。
你能告诉我们什么是 那道菜背后的故事?
- 介绍一下这个。
- 她是我的妻子。
(两人都大声笑)
(乔说外语)
- [艾伦]面条 称为何老式。
这是一种又长又细的面条。
机器直接推到锅里,
所以非常非常新鲜。
实际上只需要两个或 三分钟就可以煮了。
第一个酱汁,牛肉
味道会有点辣
还有番茄鸡蛋,
我们就用番茄炒鸡蛋。
有点酸味。
猪肉末只是大豆 与猪肉末粘贴。
- [安德鲁]如果我是 正确理解这一点,
在你的家乡,通常会用
这些酱汁和面条一起吃。
有时人们会将两者结合起来,
并且您有这样的想法 将三者放在一起。
- [艾伦] 是的。
- 为什么会这样?
- [Ellen]味道会更复杂
- [Joe]因为我喜欢这个味道。
一起来一份蔬菜,
和一份肉,有一个酸,有一个咸。
一碗就很棒了。
(收银机叮叮声)
- 你们也在这里包饺子。
你有推荐吗 我们应该尝试哪一个?
- 是的,羊肉饺子,我喜欢。
给我的新物品。
- [史蒂文]我会做到的 用醋和智利油。
- 饺子欢呼。 - 干杯。
(笑)一起去洗澡。
来吧。
- [两者] 嗯。
- 我必须再吃一个。
- 与...分享一些...
哦,就是这样。
- 嗯。 - 想要一个安妮吗?
这是一种非常柔软的羊肉味。
- [史蒂文]非常轻。
- 是的。
一迪还没有。
- 事实上,
这个饺子最重要的就是饺子皮。
- 这是与面条相同的面团。
- 这是很多食物。
- 这是一个有趣的数字。
- 干杯。 - 干杯。
(发出声音)
- 美味的面条,是的。
- 我一直很喜欢面条
,你可以直接把它塞到脸上。
- [亚当]你们都是怪物。
- 我们是怪物吗? - 对不起。
- 我看到安妮的样子 这个用耳机。
没关系,这是一个 大量的吸食正在进行。
- 老实说我从来没有听说过 今天之前的番茄鸡蛋。
- 这有点疯狂 因为这就像结合
我童年时的所有这些口味。
就是所有这些 就像,哇。
你只是喜欢(呼气)。
- [安妮]史蒂文,那是料理鼠王。
- 那是料理鼠王?
我还没看过那部电影。
(发出声音)
- 一千种 面条,大约。
- 太令人安慰了。
非常非常好的面条。
- 在我们去下一个面馆之前,
我们要去一个叫 Bistro Na's 的地方
那是北京特色甜品。
- 是的。
- 推荐这个地方 我们的好朋友一迪。
你想在我们之前完成这个吗,
是的,这是最大的 我见过懒惰的苏珊。
- 咕咕。
- 好的。
我说:“一弟,该去哪里? 我们得到一些甜点吗?”
她说:“你有 去小酒馆Na's。”
这是为什么?
- 他们有我家乡北京的食物。
我经常在这里吃饭来缓解我的思乡之情,
他们的甜点是 我从小就吃
的东西,所以我想你们应该尝试一下。
- [安德鲁] 哇。
- [史蒂文]好的。
- 给你,伙计们。
- 这就是一迪的生活方式。
我很清楚自己想要什么,
但我想问一迪我们应该吃什么。
- 驴滚。
- [安德鲁] 驴打滚。
- [一迪]是的。
- [安德鲁] 好的,你想要吗 从驴卷开始?
- 这不是最好的 一一一迪,你错了。
我是一个喜欢吃芝麻卷的人。
(轻柔的爵士乐)
- 嗯。
- 嗯,很好。
- 在我们享受之前 剩下的甜点,
让我们享受一下面条吧。
- 面条的面条事实。
- 哇哦,所有的事实不都是面条事实吗?
- 是的。
- 因为它们改善了你的面条。
- 我刚才开了那个玩笑。
- 一般来说,中国人
不会烘干意大利面,但意大利人会烘干。
- 我从未做过这样的区分。
- 对于我们的意大利面剧集, 我们看到意大利面条被挤压
,但他们在煮沸之前让其干燥。
而在老喜儿,它 直接挤入水中。
我认为这是因为它没有针对那种有嚼劲的味道进行优化
你从干燥中得到的。
- 这很大程度上解释了为什么我更喜欢
中国面条而不是面食。
- 是吗?
- 因为他们只是--
- Squishier。
- Squishier,是的。
- 所以我们的下一站面条,
我们要去 Bugra 多兰维吾尔菜馆
我们要尝试的地方 他们的大盘鸡。
在我们吃之前,
我们要吃掉 剩下的这些甜点。
- 好吧,关掉相机, 让我们进城吧。
- 我喜欢。
- 嗯。
(欢快的器乐)
什么是维吾尔族美食?
- 维吾尔地区位于丝绸之路的
中点。
它受到波斯语、
印度语、土耳其语和中国语的影响。
很多人问,“你们有烤肉串,
还有炒菜吗?”
“你是怎么发明这个的?”
但其实这是原汁原味的维吾尔族美食。
我们的厨师 Alerken 即将出发 做今天所有的菜。
- 有哪些亮点 维吾尔族美食有哪些?
- 在古代,维吾尔族 人们在沙漠里做烤肉串。
所以你生火,然后 你建造了那座塔,
,它的形状就像那堆火。
马球运动非常传统 红烧肉、
胡萝卜、葡萄干一起。
蝠鲼,看起来像 中国倾销但规模更大。
面团很薄。
里面塞满了牛肉 和洋葱和香料
- 所以谈论大盘鸡。
所以我想它很大。
- 是的,它很大。
- 我以为这是一个 面条集,安德鲁。
- 这是面条,对吧?
- 当然,是的,它配有面条。
这很典型 汉语和维吾尔族的融合。
我们用 油、辣椒和香料:
肉桂、孜然、星形 八角、花椒。
所以这很辣。
我们把土豆和 我们炖半小时。
我们也做手工面条。
面条,要有嚼劲。
我们用以下材料做面条 水、盐和蛋清。
- 面团里有蛋清吗? - 蛋清,是的。
因为它确实做到了 有嚼劲,而且是粗面条。
这是两者之间的区别 大盘鸡肉面
与另一道面条。
它应该又厚又宽。
- [史蒂文]我注意到 大盘鸡,
所有的面条都被盖住了 通过上面的东西。
你为什么要尝试 在面条上建造这座肉山
- 因为大盘子 鸡肉,有汤,
所以吃面的时候, 将其与汤混合。
味道真是太棒了。
(收银机叮叮声)
- [Andrew] 我从未见过 以前有一个这样的茶杯。
- [Bugra] 全部都是手工制作的。
- 哇。
- 手工制作? - 是的。
花茶,这个很 在我国很常见。
这也是我的创作。
- 干杯。
- 干杯。 - 别把茶洒了。
- 嗯,哦,是的。
- 哦。
- 玫瑰。
- 这里有肉桂吗?
- 是的。 - 肉桂。
- 小豆蔻。
- [布格拉]小豆蔻。
- 你准备好迎接一些大事了 盘鸡史蒂文?
- 大盘鸡,我们开始了。
- 天哪。
好吧,我们吃了一份面条 突出在这里。
我们应该从鸡肉开始吗? - 是的。
- 既然这是大盘鸡?
哇,闻起来很香。
(咔嚓一下舌头)
嗯,有点辣,是的。
- 随之而来的味道,令人流连忘返。
- [安德鲁] 来了,面条。
- 哦,我想要一个 那些种类的面条。
那个人一直坐在下面 鸡肉的重量
知道了,我在这里找到了。
- 看起来很美味,对吧?
(笑)
- 干杯 - 干杯
哦,伙计。
- 哇哦。
- 面条本身很像饺子,
- 很像饺子。 - 在于它的柔软。
- 就像你在吃东西一样 一根面条里有一个饺子。
- [安德鲁]确实如此 就像底部的汤一样。
- 我知道,为什么我们没有勺子呢?
- 我认为这是因为 面条是你的勺子。
(勺子叮当声)
-(笑)勺子的声音。
- 正如我们所说。
非常感谢。
看到这里的胡椒了吗?
一切都在进行中。
噢,太好了。 - 真的吗?
好的,我现在需要尝试一下。 - 你必须这么做。
将注意力集中在舌头上。
- 热量增加了一点。
麻木的花椒 有没有一点点。
- 我喜欢这个,是的。
- 肉桂
的添加确实令人惊喜又令人愉悦。
- 但这让我想起马来西亚美食。
那里的菜品很多 是字面上的婚姻。
没有什么比菜肴的结合更好地描述这个
了。
- [安德鲁] 很好吃。
- 我明白了。
我明白为什么他们说停止胡思乱想,
因为这需要很长时间 是时候吃面条了。
是这样吗?
有时,当你看完电影
,你会想,“我 不知道该说什么。”
- 就像当你完成一件好事时 预订后,您只需
散散步,什么也不做。
- 或者像一岁半 驾车一小时穿过洛杉矶
,一路到达比佛利山庄。
- 因为这就是我们下一步要去的地方,
但在那之前 -
- 面条事实。
历史学家认为 中国面条起源于
X年前。
X 是什么?
- 1500 年前。
- 现在将其加倍并添加 1000。
4000 年前。 - 4000年前?
我想知道第一个形状是什么。
你觉得这很有趣吗,安妮?
- 我以前从未想过这一点。
- 是的,第一个面条形状是什么?
- 哦,面条形状? - 面条形状哦!
- 我以为你只是 谈论形状。
- 是的,我也是。
- [Adam] 中国制作面包的时间
比制作面条的时间还要长,
并且面条的制作也随之停止 将面团
撕入沸水中。
- [两者]哇。
- 好的,穿过城镇。
♪ 穿过城镇 ♪
现在我们前往 Crustacean,
一个地标性的越南裔美国人景点。
我们将会有 安氏著名的大蒜面条,
,最重要的是,珍宝蟹。
面条是创作
的创始人 餐厅,Helene An,
,她对食谱保密。
所以它们是在秘密厨房里制作的
,我们不能进去。
- 我们将与托尼厨师交谈,
也许他可以把 这些面条上有豆子。
- 没关系,我是说, 奥普拉实际上是在这里拍摄的
,但她不被允许进入那里,
所以我们几乎就是奥普拉。
(大家都笑了)
(欢快的电子音乐)
- 我知道你们的厨房
有些秘密运作。
- 有点。
我们的厨房中还有厨房。
那个厨房是为家庭成员
和有家人的人准备的 在
餐厅工作了 10 多年。
- 为什么?
- 我的老板,厨师海伦 安,她首先在
70 年代在这家小熟食店
开始,并慢慢地将亚洲 到处都有天赋。
她知道自己正在做某事,
所以她想继续 它在家庭内部。
我们大约有四件物品 原本来自秘密。
蒜蓉面条已经 自从我们开业以来。
她看到每个人 喜欢意大利面和帕尔马干酪
,所以这就是她的灵感。
她刚刚被命名为 亚洲融合之母。
这是签名 餐厅的菜。
- 亚洲融合已被关注 以多种方式。
在我长大的地方,它被人瞧不起,
但你正在做亚洲融合,
而且就在比佛利山庄。
你如何翻转 亚洲融合食品的叙述?
- 我认为这只是一些很酷的东西
,让人们讨厌融合,
但我变得如此 当我与海伦交谈时,对此感到非常舒服
她其实并不知道什么是融合。
她就像是,“我只是按照我想要的方式烹饪
。”
现在我们从 世界不同地区,
只要你做得明智,
最终的结果应该非常美味。
- 所以这是我们视频的最后一站,
这是三个美元符号,
但面条本身并不是
这里最贵的东西,对吧?
- 一般来说,如果您要吃螃蟹
,您总是会吃大蒜面条,
但它们是两个独立的 菜单上的项目。
我想说 99.9% 吃螃蟹的人,
他们总是吃面条。
- 尽情享受面条。
- 这不是一个问题, 你必须得到螃蟹。
(两人都笑了)
- 明白了。
(收银机叮叮声)
- 哇哦。
这闻起来像我的火 闹钟即将响起。
(笑)
- 看看那个。
感觉就像你 不应该在餐厅做
这很好,但我就是这样做 想去(喉咙里笑)。
- 鱼子酱欢呼。
- 天啊,太棒了。
- 实际上,这很有道理。
- 开始吧。
- 开始吧。
啊,大蒜味十足。
大约需要两秒钟。
- [托尼] 一只螃蟹在壳里,
一只螃蟹把壳拿出来。
- 很好。 - 哇。
还有围兜?
没办法。
- 是的!
这比我想象的要简单得多。
- [安德鲁] 好的。
- 干杯。
- 哦,是的,那真是太好了。
我只想吃掉这一整碗。
- 太蓬松了。
松软的面条。 - 蓬松的面条,是的。
我要做一点螃蟹。
- [史蒂文]这不就是生活吗?
预先挑选的螃蟹。
(感性的蓝调音乐)
- 真的很棒,对吧?
- 这是我小时候的幻想
,一道菜的味道应该是什么样的。
- 这和你小时候吃的黄油面很接近
,对吧?
添加最佳版本 黄油状的东西,
黄油蟹肉。
- 预先采摘的螃蟹,好吧,
就像鸟儿吃已经咀嚼过的食物
由他们的父母为他们做准备。
- 谈论当 鸟妈妈咀嚼食物
然后将其扔进 小鸡的嘴。
- 拥有的想法 为你准备的食物。
- 这是母爱,对吧?
太棒了。
- 现在你该怎么做 它,这就是问题。
(忧郁的布鲁斯音乐)
长面条,长​​寿。
- 漫长的一天。
- 他们就是这么说的。
今天你最喜欢的一件事
不是面条?
- 面条挤出机 老喜儿面馆
,像个老店 老式手动火车车。
- 在 Crustacean 处,位于 地板上有一个鱼缸
,里面有很多漂亮的鱼 锦鲤生活在下面。
好的安德鲁,哪种面条 在给定的价格下,
是最值得的吗?
- 我要特别推荐
老喜儿的猫耳朵面。
“我值得”获胜者将前往
多兰维吾尔美食,
- 天哪。 - 超好的。
- 天哪,我简直不敢相信 就这样,我们同意一次。
我喜欢甲壳类动物,而且我 本来想说老喜儿
,因为丰富的经历 你把它放在一个碗里。
我值得的获胜者 去多兰维吾尔菜。
- Adam,谁是你心目中“值得”的获胜者?
- [亚当]老喜儿。
- 安妮,谁是你的 今天最喜欢的面条?
- 甲壳动物
- [安德鲁] 还有一迪,而 我们就在附近。
- 驴滚!
(笑)
- 好吧,我们的年终迷你剧第二集
就是这样。
下周再来 一个非常干脆的结论。
- 它也有柔软的末端。
- [亚当]炸鸡三明治。
- 哦,来吧,亚当。
(轻柔的钢琴音乐)
- 好吧,史蒂文,这将是
我们 2019 年最后一集“值得”。
- 今天,
我们将尝试“值得” 三个炸鸡三明治
三点大幅 不同的价位
来找出哪一个是最合适的 以它的价格来说最值得。
- 我想我们是 此刻正在经历,
有点炸 鸡肉三明治热潮。
我们认为我们应该调查问题
并自己做炸鸡三明治。
- 我喜欢你说的“调查”。
- 哦,看看那个,新鲜的沥青。
- 你说话的方式(笑)
- 它看起来金黄可口,
就像新鲜炸鸡一样。
看起来很好吃吗?
看起来很好吃,
什么?
所以我们要去的第一个地方是
美国丽人之窗。
主厨 Elisha 将向我们展示
他们的炸鸡三明治。
American Beauty 是一家牛排馆。
白天, 他们有一个外卖窗口
,可以做汉堡、薯条、
炸鸡三明治之类的东西。
- 我非常喜欢这个, 感觉很纽约。
我不知道我该怎么办。
我就是喜欢它,我就是喜欢纽约。
(氛围音乐)
- 《窗户》是什么?
- The Window 是我们的白天营业场所
,我们以非常实惠的价格提供美味的食物
- [史蒂文] 据我了解,
这个鸡肉三明治不到六美元?
- [厨师以利沙] 是的,是的 五美元 50 美分。
- 哇。 - 那太疯狂了。
- 我不知道我是否会 说我们正在与快餐竞争
,但我们 试图达到
左右的价格点 常规快餐连锁店。
我们正在内部制作所有东西
,我们的想法是交付 招待我们的客人,
无论他们点的是油炸食品 鸡肉三明治在窗口
或者他们在晚上点我们的牛排。
所以我们蝴蝶 鸡,所以它散开,
我们把它捣碎,所以它是 周围厚度相同。
- [安德鲁]我看到你 在你捣碎肉之前,我们也在肉
上打了分。
- [主厨以利沙]通过评分 它,我们都在帮助
酪乳和 调味料渗透,
但我们也得到了 表面空间多一点,
所以有一点 更脆的部分。
然后我们就炒它。
我们有很棒的马丁土豆卷。
墨西哥辣椒蒜泥蛋黄酱, 这会提供一点
更多的脂肪和一些热量。
然后我们有这个非常简单的色拉
,给人一点新鲜感。
只是卷心菜、一些胡萝卜、红洋葱、
和非常简单的红酒醋汁。
- [史蒂文]你会说
可以制作出完美的炸鸡三明治吗?
是所有的平衡吗 那些东西在一起?
- [厨师以利沙]为了 我,我认为这确实是
这一切的结合。
当你吃它的时候,它就是一种进化。
就目前而言,这有点 一切都在称赞自己。
我认为这确实可以带来更好的
和更愉快的饮食体验。
(收银机叮叮声)
- [播音员] 值得订购。
- 这是我们的命令!
- 谢谢你们! - 谢谢。
- 哦,味道好极了。 - 哦!
- 抱歉,我只是想要那个。 - 那是一个沉重的打击。
盒子里的食物有一些东西
像这样,我每次都很喜欢。
- 嗯嗯。
- 就像美国便当盒。
- 很好。
- 你吃薯条时会吃番茄酱吗?
- 我愿意。
- 好的,等一下,我找到你了。 - 好的。
我吃了一份油炸食品,我的意思是什么?
- 你什么?
你很幸运我没有抛弃 你头上的番茄酱。
- 去做吧,我敢。
薯条。
(视频游戏音乐)
- 嗯,令人难以置信的鱼苗。
脆脆的就像麦片一样脆。
- [史蒂文] 好吧,让我们开始桑多时间吧。
- 哦,看看那个。 - 哇!
感觉比我想象的更蓬松。
- 那是土豆面包。
干杯。 - 干杯。
(欢快的音乐)
- 嗯! - 毫米。
是的,第一口真的很好吃。
- [安德鲁]哇。
- 嗯!
第二口真是太棒了。
- 我每次都有一种感觉 咬一口就会好的。
- 我对这个面包的认识,
它是如此柔软和蓬松 它正在履行自己的职责
,就像让炸鸡
成为节目中真正的明星。
- 这就是“为什么我们要吃
炸鸡三明治” 作为一个问题,你知道吗?
因为我们以前做过炸鸡,
但面包只是拨号 整个事情又回到了
,就像软甜甜圈一样。
- 嗯嗯。 - 我有点喜欢。
你知道这是做什么的 有点让我想起?
- 告诉我。 - 我想你会因为没有想到这一点而
生气。
- 不,我认为这
没有我想象的那么令人兴奋。
- 北京烤鸭包 我们在纽约的时候。
那个软软的小面包 配上美味的肉
以及调味品和脆皮蔬菜。
加上黄瓜和酱汁
,增加一点甜味。 - 是啊是啊。
你是对的,好吧,是的。
(视频游戏音乐)
- 美国丽人,多棒啊 在美国的美好时光。
- 这对于 你,我很失望。
- 好的,在我们下一个合适的
炸鸡三明治之前, 我们实际上要
吃一份额外的炸鸡。
(史蒂文叹息)
节目的朋友David Chang,
有很多炸鸡 名为福库的三明治店。
他们有菜单外的内容, 超辣炸鸡
旨在味道更好 作为冷品。
这就像一个食物双关语,但语言是
的味道和温度。
- 这听起来更像是一个矛盾修辞法。
- 这就像一个乐趣--
- 你必须是一个 矛盾白痴吃这个。
啊啊!
- 好吧,你知道什么可怕吗?
食物附带的黑色手套。
就是这里,哦,哇!
戴上手套。 (笑)
这家伙正在走路 狗,只是看着
三个戴黑手套的家伙。
(戏剧音乐)
天哪!
看起来令人不安。
- 为什么!
哦!
- 它看起来像木乃伊肉。
- 为什么这么黑? (笑)
- 亚当,我希望你有那个 牧场一瓶待命。
- 哦! (笑)
- 我以为我们只是在浸泡!
(笑)亚当!
这太奇怪了。
- 哦,好冷! (笑)
- 干杯!
(戏剧性音乐)
哦,还不错。
哦!
- 哦,它也像肉桂糖。
- 哦! - 哦!
- 很糟糕。
- 有你想要的泡菜 可以一直陪着(叹气)。
(叹气)不,我不喜欢这个。
- 告诉我事实!
- 好的。
冷热炸鸡事实时间。
嗯,很好,一杯冰雪饮料。
- 这让情况变得更糟。
- 你能说出冷热事实上的鸡肉时间吗?
- 热冷事实鸡时间!
(亚当打喷嚏)
(笑)哦,哇!
- 辛辣食物中
使某些东西变得辛辣的化学物质是辣椒素。
众所周知,辣椒素会增加 能量,降低食欲,
增加唾液分泌, 并释放内啡肽。
(笑)
- 味觉能力下降 在较高温度下,
高于 86 华氏度,
以及较低温度 低于 68 华氏度。
哦!
- 我认为这只鸡可能 就在中心。
你还去吗?
- 天哪!
- 所以我们正在路上 市中心到皮库尼科。
我们要去见厨师 Kuniko
并吃她的炸鸡三明治。
- 好吧,辣吗?
- 不,没关系。
- 好的,很好。 - 是的。
(氛围音乐)
- Pikunico 的意思是野餐加 Kuniko。
所以一切都在待办事项中 盒子,您可以在
餐厅外面吃饭,就像野餐一样。
- 为什么选择炸鸡
作为菜单的基石?
- 我是伴随着它长大的。
我奶奶从来不喜欢做饭,
所以我们总是去买。 (笑)
我来的时候就吃了这个 南式炸鸡,
,外皮厚厚的,我 喜欢它,所以我做了一个混合体。
轻,像日本人一样,但是 还带有松脆感。
通常是小麦粉,
但我们做糙米和马铃薯淀粉。
这可能是最特别的 我们炸鸡的一部分。
我们的油炸锅不含任何麸质。
我很多朋友的孩子, 他们有严重的过敏症,
,而且他们从不吃炸鸡。
所以我说,好吧,你可以来这里。
- [安德鲁]你为什么想要 为您的炸鸡提供三明治选项
- 我正在努力融入这里。 (笑)
- [安德鲁] 你有过吗 在日本找到那些?
- [邦子]我不相信 这是一个流行的事情。
日本人只包饭团、
和炸鸡、泡菜。
这就是我们的野餐。
但很多人说,“Kuni,来吧,
就像你生活在美国一样,
每个人都喜欢三明治, 想出一个伟大的方案。”
我想做三明治 尽我所能。
我们制作了一个金色的小面包 含有姜黄。
姜黄具有抗炎作用。
这样你就可以减轻
我在吃油炸食品的感觉 今天吃鸡。 (笑)
对我来说,三明治就是组合。
松软的包子,脆脆的鸡肉, 柠檬醋汁中的酸。
我希望它一口气把所有东西都包含在内。
- 我的意思是你说咬一口, 但我见过三明治
,它相当高。 - 是的。
- 我该如何一口吃掉它?
- 平滑。 (笑)
(收银机叮当声)
- 我们是来吃三明治的, 但我们还有一份沙拉
,我们要先尝尝。
- [Kuniko] 我喜欢我的 海藻和黄瓜沙拉。
我们的海藻来自日本 而且是用盐腌制的。
质地不像脱水,
像裙带菜,像纸一样薄。
肉质非常丰富,令人满意。
我每天都吃沙拉。
- 干杯。
(氛围音乐)
- 嗯! - 哇。
- 我不确定我曾经有过 以前吃过这种海藻。
它更稠密、更肉质。
- 暂停按钮,回到三明治。
她给了我们很好的建议。
- 看看鸡肉多汁。
你看到果汁流出来了吗?
这是挤压的隐藏好处。
- 干杯。
- 太棒了。
- 哇。
- 这当然是一个洗脸器。
这是一个非常好的三明治。
- 伙计,这个明星 炸鸡三明治。
- 说三,一
- 二,三。
- 泡菜。 - 面包。
哦,为你的案件辩护,因为 我认为你错了。
- 正是酸味使得 你想要所有其他的东西。
- 是的,但是来吧,看看这个面包。
很软,味道很好 咬一下,它不会散开。
- 这是一个漂亮的三明治。
这个东西的质地, 几乎像苔藓一样。
你曾经看过苔藓并且 我想,我打赌那很好吃吗?
- 我从不这么认为,不。 - 真的吗?
我觉得吃起来口感很酷。
这就像一个空中花园。
- 就像上面的那棵植物。
我认为这就像 可能是完美的三明治。
你已经把这个炸了 鸡肉真好吃。
但是,事情 围绕它,这样你就不会
感觉油腻。
- [安德鲁]一点也不油腻。
- 有炸鸡 就在这边,对吧。
所以她说,好吧,什么 我应该把
放在这一边来平衡它吗?
- 豆芽、味噌酱、 泡菜,有点太远了。
- 哦,好吧。
- 这边有墨西哥辣椒,繁荣。
我觉得我们说了一些好话。
- 哦。
- 亚当的肮脏举动。
这是一个肮脏的举动。
您是否正在使用您
尚未窃取的那个 一块鸡出来的?
我明白了,我知道你是怎么工作的。
皮库尼科,你觉得怎么样?
- 面包,太好吃了。
- 哦,我想野餐。
这有什么意义吗?
- 不。
在我们去下一个地点之前,
炸鸡三明治 实际时间!
- 炸鸡三明治事实。
- 虽然它目前不在菜单上,
一次,肯德基提供 Double Down 三明治,
我记得那个。
其中包含两个 炸鸡柳
是面包
的两倍,馅料是 培根、奶酪和酱汁。
我其实有一个非常 对此的美好回忆。
- 你真的吃了这个东西?
- 我试过了。
这就像听起来一样令人惊奇。
- 真的吗?
我记得那件事,那太疯狂了。
就像,只吃食物 伙计们,你们在做什么?
那时甚至是三明治
还是您只是在拿食物?
就像我刚刚拿起一个 牛排然后用手吃,
那是三明治吗?
- [Adam] 如果你有两个。
- 我们在一家牛排馆开始这段视频,
现在我们要去一家海鲜餐厅。
