I’m also Laos , Laos food is so delicious who else agrees?

Laotian food is so comforting. Thank you for visiting Laos, Mark! This is so sincere and professional. You ate Lao food for Lao food, I am impressed you did not compare it to Thai food. So professional! Everything looked delicious.

Laos is my dream destination. I love the food and the culture. Thank you for taking us along!!! Blessings to you and your gorgeous family🙏🏽

No, Laotians don't eat dogs. That is one of the religious sins in our culture that prohibits us to eat certain animals. Vietnamese ppl who lived there and have their own villages around there mostly do sell and eat dogs. Not all Asians eat what others eat. Thank you

I’m half Laotian and I grew up eating my grandmas food, she always told me how Laos was and how she wants to take me to visit one day. I’m so happy to watch this video it makes me more excited to go visit!

Healthiest meal ever! Thank you Mark because it's beautiful knowing different cultures and beautiful people around the world!

Audible is a godsend for travelling, really glad they decided to support you through sponsoring!

My family of three watch you Everytime Marc. We are a little Samoan family in San Diego. Our daughter is 5yrs old and loves Maika. Thanks for showing us the beauties of the world and the reading material. "Language of Foods". Alofa atu. God bless.

Mark, I would like to thank you from the bottom of my heart. My mom is from Laos. These videos help me understand the culture my mom came from! Food has always been a difficult topic for me, especially since I cannot eat spicy food! I feel more connected whenever I watch your videos!

Mark you are the ambassador for the world. I have learned a lot about other cultures because of your videos.

I really appreciate the transparency and genuineness of your videos. Even with a paid promotion you come off as sincere! Awesome video, thanks.

McChopper 2000 I think she was implying that Mark doesn’t sound fake about his sponsors. Some people come off extremely fake or as if they don’t use the product themselves, just trying to make a profit only. Mark seemed like he legitimately enjoyed this sponsor and even referenced his last audio book.

I agree mark, that house is beautiful! And it did look very peaceful in that area.

it's really nice watching your vids. Growing up as a Laotian in California, my parents always stuck to their traditions. I grew up eating the foods in this vids, and these dishes are actually my mom's favorites. That lady also reminds me of my mother too. My family eat the same way in this video too...on the floor, although we had a dinner table.

Hello Mark, I wish nothing but the best to you, your wife, your beautiful son and extended families. I myself am not able to travel. Your video's make me feel like i am right there with you guys. I have the same love of food as you do (well close anyway) and believe your video's are among the the best i have ever seen. Keep up your great work Mark. Peace and love, Dale from Canada

I feel at home just looking at her prepare the meal. Looks so cool.

Mark, you show respect for the people, their food and their customs. It is more than for. It is an introduction into their lives.. Absolutely wonderful,

Joel fun line "I have no wife" I love it.

What an awesome Laotian feast. So fresh and wholesome. What a nice family to let you in their home and cook for you.

Starting with a Coffee. Proud of you Mark

The special thing of this video is you can see how Lao people cooks, the foods look simple, but a lot of small herbs mixed in them, Fantastic experience

This reminders me of my mom. I’m so blessed to have traditional Laos food at home everyday! ❤️

Not only Salivating but Your contents are a TRUE blessing ! This gave me more of a personal glimpse of life of the people of my roots and couldn't help but laugh cause understanding the language is so natural to me and seeing it else where is crazy. I'm Canadian born, so my background is alot of wonders for me! Thank you Mark!

From one side of the world to the other side. All for food. That's why I love Mark's channel.

Hey Mark! I loved the village cooking video you posted from Mexico and I'm so glad you posted on in Lao as well! Everything looks so vibrant and delicious. Keep making these type of videos whenever possible 👌

I cannot wait to get to that part of the world and experience not only the food, but the culture and the people. But I commend you for your bravery as I cannot bring myself to eat any kind of ‘filtering’ organ ( lungs, kidneys, liver, heart, intestines) but I thank you for the love and respect that you have for the people of Laos, Cambodia, Thailand, Vietnam… it shows in all of your videos from there. God continue to bless you and your family abundantly. 🙏

I love to travel. But with your channel, I travel with you! Thanks again for your great work and videos!!

So authentic, amazing and humble. 5 stars for this video. FYI I'm addicted to watching your videos, look forward to it everyday. Its a bit of a relaxing thing for me. You have a wonderful family and my husband and I love how down to earth and genuine you are. Thanks Mark Weins, need more people like you. 🙏

Oh yeah....it’s good to be Laotian, best food ever. Thank you for sharing! 😎👍🏻🇱🇦

I like how you're not picky when it comes to food, you are a survivor. Thumbs up for trying out the Lao traditional food, sitting on the floor and eating off the Pa Kao much respect👏👍

Lao is a peaceful country, people are kind-hearted and hospitable

I just had meal 20 minutes ago but I'm hungry again. * SIDE EFFECT of Mark Videos 😁

Wow looks great there , we live just 30 minutes away from Laos have to go there and check out the local Markets and Food too , love to mix in with the Locals too , thx Mark

I am a Malaysian. Love Laos, went there many times, and enjoyed food prepared by locals with the same appreciation, super appetising!!! Only one difference, I dont see the use of ajinomoto, this lady must have converted to use less or no ajinomoto.

Let’s all hope and pray that these cultures featured in your vlogs are passed on to the next generations to last forever!

Gotta love a new video every Sunday morning. As long as I've eaten before I watch it.

Im hmong and my grandpa is laotian. I love his lao style laab and tamarind pompano fish dish..but sad that he's no longer with us😥 miss him so much..

Love how you and your wife are bringing Micah in all your travels. It was so cute how he thanked the lady, or Said bye so cute.

Micah is going to have his own food channel when he is 14 years old and he would have learned where all the best foods are from his professional eating dad! I'm just wondering what his facial expressions will be, hmm, like father like son maybe? 💙 💙

My neighbors are from Laos. I always love being invited over for dinner. 🥰

Mark, I had never seen an actual village before. I have worked in the Laotian community in Philadelphia; they have told me about the mountains and villages, until now I could only imagine. Thank You!

Is always nice to see my mom homeland. Thanks for all the food tour. You are so awesome Mark. Many blessing to you and your family whever you maybe heading to.

Cultural feast from Laos amazing and mouth watering.Must visit this place.

She looks super talented ....her way of cooking is just awesome #tradition... #love cooking

Hello from Laos 🇱🇦. Thank you very much to present my country

Mark talking about nonfiction books and reading is making me love him more. Wow. Well-travelled and well-read. The wife is so lucky

Im loving the video style and the camera angles man

I love of you did the style of this video im not sure what made is unlike the others but it was amazing blessings to you !

ดูแล้วมีความสุขสนุกสนาน และอร่อยคุณเป็นคนที่เก่งและยอดเยี่ยมจริงๆ ทานอาหารไทยได้เก่งมากๆเลยค่ะกลัวน่ารักเดินทางปลอดภัยนะจ๊ะ

Another superb clip from Mark Wiens - I love the house: spotlessly clean. And the hostess created that banquet in no time.

Mark Wiens'videos, the best way to start my sunday. thx !

Laotian are the most honest and friendly people on earth.

Very organic. Planty of veges. no fat . simply cooked. this should be the food of the healthy world.

Lol I like how the cook smiles slightly while ol' boy is moaning and loving her food. I get so much joy from seeing and hearing people enjoy the food I cook.

Yet another awesome video! Thank you for sharing. The lady at the morning 1:48 made me smile when said in Lao "I am on camera."

Love how they live so simply and can make the most fresh delicious meals

I love that Mark is a reader! I’m a librarian and that makes me happy. 😊

Thank you for showing our beautiful country once again, I used to lived right at downtown Vientiane and homesick.

I love the beautiful Laotian lady that cooked that traditional meal for you.

The special thing about you is everything you share are fresh & tasty

Well said Jeff, that's exactly how feel, I really enjoy the diverse culture you bring to us Mark. And this meal in the village looked stunning with the colour, fresh ingredients, the traditional way lady made it. Keep up the good work.

I loved the food in Laos, the people, the culture and the landscape. Beautiful. I need to go back

She's an amazing cook.

Yummy everything look super delicious.. 👍

I love all your video and rewatch it several times because of the beautiful country n food.

I was there last week. I really liked it. Will definitely go back again. It’s laidback, it’s relaxing, the people are friendly, the food is great. Not sure what more is needed. Great job Vientiane!

Lao food is soooooooo amazing!!! It's so flavorful and super spicy! There are so many herbs and spices used for seasoning. I love that it's so fresh! There's this Thai restaurant in LA called Night+Market Song and they have Lao food on their menu. My mouth is salivating watching you eat all that!!!

I find it always necessary to check out the local markets. I learn so much about other cultures from your vids Mark! So great! Thank you!

Correct me if I'm wrong, but one of the reasons why there is so much depth of flavor in these dishes is because it was cooked with wood. It has a signature that can't be replicated with charcoal fire or gas flame.

Of course the wood can make the difference...But lao food is unique because they used a lot of fresh vegetable. Ingredient made the difference.

Laos! Yay!!!! Everything looks great, Mark!

The food looks very vibrant and beautiful. I imagine that it tastes even better.

My treatment for me when I'm depressed is looking at your videos and recognising the simplicity that life can and should have. It's about watching the process of cooking and the simplicity of these people's lives and that being "good enough" not worried about career and money and possessions. And that's why I find it a beautiful reminder to myself, that to exist and do day to day things like cooking healthy meals for your family, is within itself therapy and what "life" should really be about xx

i love the idea of travelling to village for eating

“When you go back to Thailand tell your wife to cook for you like that” “I have no wife” Smh same bro same

I feel your sincere comment on the food. You comment the food with full of delicious . Makes me feel hungry whenever I watch your video. Thanks Mark Wiens for the video.

This is probably my favorite. Simple buts it stays with you. I could taste the flavors bursting while watching this .man I really love you and your family.
