The way they describe Pad Kra Prao tells me Mexican and Thais despite being oceans apart share the same culinary soul. Pad Kra Prao is the quintessential Thai soul food. Every Thai person has a preferred combo we perfected growing up, and it just tastes like home.

I didn't realise it's viewed as the quintessential Thai soul food. It makes perfect sense, though, because it's just such a perfect, complete dish, and is always my go-to because it never disappoints (well, unless they've de-spiced it because they think the white guy won't like the spice, lol). My other favourite is the Som Tum, because OMG that is the best salad ever invented (except when there's too many salted shrimp and/or fish sauce, because I haven't grown up with those flavours and sometimes I find them a tad overpowering).

As a person who grew up in a Mexican household and now has a Thai wife, a lot of our culinary soul/culture is surprisingly similiar. It seemed like just about all my favorite homemade dishes had a Thai equivalent that my wife ate growing up. Experiencing that in Thailand really gave me a shock and was something my wife and I bonded over.

I think Thai food can be more spicer than Mexican because they love a lot of chilies. Also, some of their dishes use fermented fish, which is funky smell, stronger smelling than fish sauce.

As a Thai-American who grew up in SoCal, SFV specifically, it's funny to realize how many similar ingredients we use in Thai cuisine / Mexican cuisine! Just the applications are slightly different! Like culinary besties!

The fact that he perfectly describes Pad Krapao as a very complete dish is correct. In Thailand, some people would have this every day for breakfast or lunch. Its got the meat, the vegetables and the star egg, a little bit of spice and nice aroma. To top it all off, its cheap and easy to make. It is indeed a very complete dish.

I'm so glad they like them! Many thais like mexican food too, we speak the same flavour language, never had to refer to a dish with only one chilli as spicy with you guys✨

The way the three of them are able to analyze each dish shows that they eat well. These men know good food, and can tell when something is good. Really fun video.

Idk why but just seeing the mamah & papah videos are so good & every papas are so unique & funny which makes this channel good. Id love too see some of the mamah’s husbands trying food like chucky ( Xóchitl’s husband that she talked about in the Halloween candy episode) & Lucy’s husband too!!!

One of my favorite restaurants here in Wisconsin is a Hmong restaurant. The family that runs it was in a refugee camp in Thailand after fleeing Laos before coming to the States. They offer papaya salad either Lao or Thai style. I always get the Thai style. However even though it’s a restaurant in the Upper Midwest, both styles have a healthy dose of spice. Of course I’m pretty sure it’s still on the mild side. Great, now I want papaya salad and that restaurant is an hour from my house.

As a Thai person who has always lived on Thai soil. I would like to thank you very much to this KZread channel for helping to bring Thai food to the world to know more about. I would like to say that this is just one of the hundreds of dishes that Thai people eat. In addition to Thai food Many Western food menus Thai people can adapt it to create new flavors and add many more dishes. For example, “Grilled T-bone steak with spicy dip,” “Stir-fried spaghetti with tom yum goong,” “Spaghetti with sausage and pork larb,” “Pizza with basil,” “Lab salmon,” etc. There are also many delicious foods and various kinds of fruits for foreign friends. Let's try to taste it. We invite everyone to come and experience delicious food in Thailand. Welcome everyone.🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

I love this series, it's great seeing the dad's try different cuisines but living in Thailand, if you serve a papaya salad without heat / chilli, they will send it back. I've had some salads (and laab) that were the spiciest things I've ever tasted.

they really enjoyed this!

5:48 there’s a fresh shrimp dish that’s the Thai parallel evolution of ceviche. Larb is in a similar ballpark of seasoning but it typically seasoning for cooked meat, most commonly pork and chicken.

The thai dishes are very well balanced. They have sweet and savory at the same time, you have spice as well with creamy. It's flavorful without being extreme in any direction. And just having so many vegetables as a star of the flavor is amazing, instead of having the meat or the carb being center.

I would like see them try authentic thai food. this was more like a version, but great video!

I guess you are equating being American and speaking English with sophistication. It’s actually not surprising that somebody straight from Mexico would be a little more cosmopolitan than somebody from the United States. Americans typically travel less than everybody else. This makes them experience less stuff. If he straight from Mexico, chances are, he is a lot more well traveled and has come in contact with more cultures. He doesn’t sound like he’s from the countryside. His accent sounds like he’s from the city.

Thank I’m just so happy you spelled laab correctly. I die a little each time I see it spelled larb.

Thai food is beyond awesome and the spice level is something Mexicans will adore. Angry Chicken is a favorite of mind. So delicious and leaves a warm glow in the mouth. The rice is provided for good reason. Mix it with every dish where the rice is provided. I always pour that cup of rice into the Tom Kha Kai and elevates the taste of both. Super yummy.

I love the reaction that I've seen, all is good that Latino and Thai have a lot in common imo. One thing I would like to point out is that : "Pad kra pow" is normally cooked with Thai holy basil (this one is essential due to its unique smell), Protein of your choice, Minced bird eye chilli, Garlic. and your could topped that off with Sunny sided up egg. While adding bell pepper or green bean is not frowned upon but it's not normally seen in most of the restaurant (Also feel free to correct me if i'm wrong). Anyway love your video.
