The dishes on the $1.41 buffet were actually all side dishes that Thai people normally eat with steamed rice. So if you eat them without rice, I can tell you that they're probably all a little too salty. So the taste of all the dishes there usually goes well with steamed rice. Unlike the $83 buffet, where most of the dishes are prepared without rice, the taste is much more pleasant than the $1.41 buffet. For Thai people, the $1.41 buffet is something for everyday consumption, while the $83 buffet is for special occasions.
hey man same reason with the Filipinos, that is why they always have rice :)
@Repent and believe in Jesus Christ which buffet did Jesus try?
@@juicewithjack5897 haha!! Right! Holy water on tap with some roasted lamb?
@@bernsteiner88 pinoy need to learn about condom, way too many dumb and poor popping out mistakes they cant afford and dump them on the street of manila.
Yep! That's why we usually call it as fast food not buffet~~ I m missing BKK sososososo much!!!
You can tell the difference with Sonny between Egypt and Thailand. He is not scared, he is confident here. I feel like Sonny is setting up a roadmap for a few of us to travel. Sonny, is there a document we can download/buy showcasing the places you been over the past few years?
He said, in Egypt even the locals once used to circle him and ask him for money. He also did get harassed constantly for money by the police and locals.
Egypt > thailand
He already been to Thailand before, what's to be scared about lol.
He has playlists of multiple entire trips.
Thailand is the most easy, affordable, safe and entertaining place to travel in the world
I've been going on food adventures with Sonny on the daily since I haven't been able to eat in a year!!! Everyone asks me...why do you torture yourself by watching him? It's not torture!!! I cook for my family, watch them enjoy the food...then...I hook up my food bag and feast with Sonny...it makes it so much easier to live without food!!! Maybe I'm crazy...lol Much love to you all and thank you Sonny for bringing joy to a broken woman's soul!!! Happy new year everyone!!!
Watching these food & travel vlogs with Sonny inspires me to start eating healthier again and actually get creative with the food I consume. I've been so lazy, I only shove the worst kinds of food in my mouth, I haven't even cooked in my kitchen for at least two months. Last summer I discovered middle eastern food for myself and cooked so much new stuff. Now I just feel depressed and no motivation, but actually cooking and eating clean would surely raise my mood and make me feel phisically better too..
Do it and even cook some for a real friend afterwards.
@@elessartelcontar9415 Sorry to hear that, CZcams-mate. I hope your coming times will continue to be full of joyful things. I feel many would cook more deeply and grow for themselves. Something just feels “right” about it.
I hope you’re as good as you can be ❤️🙂💫
Sonny never forgets to remind us 4-5 times in every episode that he has a wife now. 😆🤣
He hasn’t said it in a while i was getting worried 😂
To be honest, he has to remind us he has a wife since he is always around women 🤣
@@THE-NC2 true. Lol smart man. Lol
who is his wife?? so curious 🤣
@@tweelee7346 he said "the woman filming me" and in another video im pretty sure he said his wife was filming- i think his wife films a lot but doesnt want any attention or to be in the spotlight
There's never a dull moment watching Sonny's channels. What a gift that is in itself! He truly enjoys doing these shows and his joy is so palpable.
Best Food Ever! Sonny,just telling you,,how excellent you are doing your job! You’re interesting,funny,knowledgeable person,a people person,friendly and seems to know the world and it’s culture!we’re very blessed to have you! Thanks a Lot! Also to the whole crew doing this blog!youre all terrific!
Sonny you're one of a few honest food reviewers in CZcams. Some people they just got paid to say how delicious the food are, which is very misleading for the most part.
I swear, you have the best commentary skills. 🤣
Loo
xiaorishu I have the best skills on the bed! How about you?
Can you play with me? 😍😍
you are so adorable 😘
@@alexhenderson6521 simping all the time. Keep it up
@@monokumannius4522 😭😭😭
So many options at the cheap one! would be hard not to visit everyday if you lived near it
I was just thinking that if I lived within a mile of it I’d be walking there for lunch daily.
cool 😎 🥗🥙🍔
Patterrz I know how you feel paying 🤑🤑83.00 but don't worry, I will invite you to the
Marriott Xx after that we go the the movies.....and play with the night 😍😍
@@ryankieth1675 IIRC its on a side street, upon a major roadway. You can walk there, but its like half a mile from the nearest public trans. It really is meant for taxi, delivery, and other types of riders. You can drive up and park, but the local workers will be annoyed, as it takes up a spot . They just won't tell you. Most of these guys are just daily workers who come, and ppl who work very close. If you did want to walk that half mile, feel free to try. Just hope your use to very high humidity, beating sunlight, and tropical temperatures. It ain't easy to walk that if your not use to it.
@@yummychips_ Well, if you own a car, you'll likely be able to mount a bicycle to it, or bring a scooter, skateboard or whatever you prefer to help you get there through the hot sun even faster with a bit of a breeze on your face. I'm sure they wouldn't mind you parking a scooter up on the grass instead of a car on the street in comparison. It sure beats walking! Just park at a suitable location as close as you can possibly find and then use your precious tool to do the rest.
Loved this episode. Such variety in one video!
I LOVE that you cover destinations and foods my medical condition keeps me from. Thank you for sharing your adventures, cuisines and cultures from around the world!
I hope 2023 finds you well and on the road to enjoying those things.
@@godslayer1415 Thank you, that is so kind of you. I hope you have a prosperous New Year as well.
I traveled in Thailand and the street food is by far the best in the world it's so fresh and it's also bloody cheap, plus the people are amazing.
😉🌎
Come to Malaysia
@@kumarkunasa3314 Why?
@@justascaredpussycat1869 Malaysia is multicultural and diverse. Different ethnicity, different cuisines. We’re rated among the best when comes to foods and cuisine. We also street foods, night markets , stalls and so many more. After all , we’re Thailand neighbours. I think you’ll enjoy it.
@@kumarkunasa3314 ahh yes malaysia the knock off INDONESIA
@@Chinaman-gw6ts you think so?? There’s no much culture there apart from tribals. Don’t you think?
I am fully enjoying the buffet content!!!! Please keep doing it. And I love the comparison of the different prices. Add in a mid priced one too!! 🙂
Thanks.
The man can only eat so much in a day 🤪
More buffet content 😋
I agree most expensive non-hotel buffet perhaps
@@lifeisgood9449 Well, he can do it in couple days you know. We don't want Sonny to be too fat right 😂
It’s good to see a place I’ve eaten at. Lived in Thailand for six years and will always prefer street food. Nam Tok Moo is to die for. 🙏🏾
The nam Tom is good with a lot of toasted ground rice powder.
The low priced one was basically home cooking done well. It looked great. If I could only eat at one, I think I'd take the low priced one. If I want to go somewhere and eat at a major hotel buffet, I'll go to Las Vegas.
The inteteresting part is
they have 14 random menu at one time
8 of them are spicy stir fry or curry thing
1 is spicy soup( the pork ribs one is the best )
1 fried thing
4 non spicy thing
and it change a bit when some menu out they cook other menu with the same catagory for you and it usually new menu
The expensive Asian buffets are miles ahead of Bacchanel & that’s coming from a person that lives in Vegas.
Thailand 🇹🇭 number 1 In food variety.
This country blessed 🙌 with everything.
The reason Thais are always smiling.
That $1.41 buffet looks really good to me. Perfect for low-budget tourists too BTW.
I just want to thank the crew that puts their hard work into making these videos I appreciate you
I'm afraid I could never really do a buffet justice, if I had all day, I could eat all day, but if I gorge myself I'd just get sick. Although 2 & a half hours at the Marriott, I could put a pretty fair dent into their protein, some of those seafoods & meats looked just devine, if I ever go overseas again I'm re watching these videos & taking notes, thank you Sonny & team.
You can get that Marquis buffet - and way better in Las Vegas - Generic and flashy - says nothing of the area they are located in
Went to the Marriott buffet a few times. Love it! 😁
Secret tip 🤫: go to the buffet on Friday night. No 2-hour time limit. You can enjoy your buffet from 5:30pm to whenever it close. 😅
I'm going on Friday after 6pm
I might die...
@@generalmartok3990 😂😂😂
@@generalmartok3990 But you would die WITH HONOR! 🤣
@@TheHOBBIES20 Qapla'!
A country with a street food is a place to die for. 🙏🙏🙏
True.
Yes until you literally die from an infection or virus
sonny your zest for food just makes me smile, much appreciate your content
I love ur shows. Im so happy i came across it. I cant get enough of ur episodes
Food quality in Thailand is always amazing coz here people really give importance.
The breakfast here is to die for !!! You will be shock so many options 20-30 things.
Thank you for coming and eating here again, love all your vids! have a nice trip! ทานให้อร่อยครับ
I ate at this Marriot on one of my last trips to Bangkok. My first time not eating on the street. There was some type of Buddhist holiday for street vendors so no street stalls in my area. After walking around searching for a food stall I gave up and went to this Marriot for a Buffet breakfast. It was delicious, but I succumbed to the effects of food poisoning before I could leave the hotel lol Thankfully my hotel was only 6-7 blocks away. Ended up bedridden for 1 day and was still sick for 3-4 more days by the time I made it to Hokkaido where I spent two of those 3-4 days in my hotel room. Thankfully it subsided enough to allow me to go on my amazing tour of hot springs and food across the island. So ironic that the first time I got sick in Thailand was from eating in a restaurant rather than on a street stall.
Oh my
Food poisoning will usually take 3-4 hours before any effect. I doubt if it was this buffet.
This is a really great food review channel
I've enjoyed all the episodes ☺️
Sonny: "One of the most expensive buffets in Southeast Asia... 83 dollars."
Me: *Laughs in Singaporean, then cries in Singaporean*
I feel you haiz
How much do they cost in SG?🤔
@@johnho9840 Top of line buffet touching $100 beyond
relatable XD
I knew somebody will say it 🤣🤣🤣
I live in Bangkok myself but never got to try that cheap buffet yet since there are already plenty of good food nearby and it would've cost a lot just to travel to the heart of Bangkok and try that buffet. Great video btw!
Is the food really quality? Like the type of oil they use or the point of sourcing the meat
@@torstimyle1355 I have watched a local vlogger before featuring this one start from preparation to cooking to serving the diners
Never go to this store but the food look good like decent street food around here.
@@mitzilynrealuyo8701 May I know where is this 50 baht buffet? There is no mention of the exact location in the video. So many items just for 50 baht. Looks good
@@Nipponho08 it is outside lumpini park
It reminds of the cheapest restaurant in Bali, Indonesia! It was a hidden gem for people from America. The food was cheap and delicious. I was eating there for lunch and dinner since the hotel serves breakfast.
what is the location mate?
Thank you, that was fun to watch both less pricey and very pricey foods in Bangkok, Thailand.
I remember following homeboy when he had 783 followers. Glad to see him succeed. Well deserved
Those giant prawns looked so good 🤤🦐🦐
Definitely digging the Buffet tour around the world stuff! Keep it up!
Cool video! I was actually hoping that this channel is about buffets in different countries, so yes, more videos with this theme! :)
You guys are putting in work getting quality content out to us 👍
czcams.com/video/9W6fwa2EX-o/video.html
I'm now suspecting you have teleport power by how many country you have traveled to in such a short amount of time, but that being said, I'm happy for the new and quality content you and your team producing
Beautiful ❤️ and great content... Thanks for the update.
I've been waiting for an updated video on Thailand for so long. It's in my opinion the best country in the world
Dear Andrew, thank you so much for your kindest words on my beloved country.🙏💖❤️
Can we all appreciate the fact that SONNY never disappointed us with his content 👍👍👍
Sonny, are you going to Burma, Laos & Cambodia again?
$1.41 Vs $83? It's not as much about the price, but rather it's how the food you eat affects your body in terms of nutritional value; such as more on nutrient-rich vegetables, fruits, grains, etc and less on sugar, sodium, saturated fat, cholesterol, etc.
I agree with you that it's not as much about the price, but rather it's how the food you eat affects your body in terms of nutritional value... "You are what you eat".
Besides, I really like the $1.41 buffet which has plenty of nutrient rich vegetables and fish. Just easy on sauces. Here in the USA, a buffet like this, even street food, would be around $10. As for myself, I ate a $6 mix-veggie salad today and am feeling good about it!
@@horatiokim7141 I don't think he's been to Laos yet!
@@imlovely6522 "You are what you eat".... At a nice fancy restaurant or a wholesome healthy nutritious meal?... You be the judge!
Love his energy, loved the video, subscribed for sure
Very nice, certainly try when I go to Bangkok next time, thanks for sharing!
83$ is definitely not the most expensive buffet..
There are several which are more expensive.
Such as the Sunday brunch at Alatia - Siam Kempinsky @ 105$
Most expensive buffet I know of is at Honmono Sushi about $200 for 2 hours. (There are several price options, depending on which branch)
I gotta admit I am glad to see you back in SE Asia, Thailand in particular. I have every intention of retiring to Chiang Mai in a few years.
😍 I LOVE THAI FOOD ♥
Thai food gives you many varieties !!
I love variety of Thai street foods.
Hi Sonny, I would love to see more buffets from other countries. This video was so interesting and satisfying to watch. Keep up the good work and congratulations on your marriage.
I cannot do buffets. I get confused and feel sick and deflated from mixing foods. However watching you eat a buffet was the absolute best! Both looked amazing value for money. Marriot looked amazing. And I felt like I really enjoyed both buffets considering I don’t eat at buffets! So thanks for letting me feast with my eyes 🤤♥️
Mixing foods makes you feel sick and deflated? 😂😂😂😂
Same here. The older I get rhe more I appreciate a well put together, multi-course meal by a creative Chef. Easier on the stomach too.
I just use more plates to not mix different dishes as I dont like that. Piles of food on the plate also looks grosse
I just take a portable folding chair and gnaw my way down the whole length of the buffet'
I mean I tried to mix sweet and sour sauce and soy sauce with vanilla ice cream and I didn’t get sick so….
Great presentation of the food scene in Thailand. I really learned a lot from this video.
Just discovered your channel, love it!!
In indonesia it is like "Warteg". They provide many kind of dishes such us meat, vegetable, soup, and so on with the cheap prices of every single dishes. Indonesian loves it
This is definitely my favorite food channel Him and uncle rodger are goats i love the fact they didn’t always have tons of money cuz expensive food doesnt always taste better
If Uncle Roger eats Thai buffets he will say Fu Yohhhh!
I really appreciate this video. Great affordable food. 👌
I really enjoy watching your videos it relaxes me and gets me hungry lol keep up the good work 🤙
Welcome back to Thailand Sonny!😍 happy to see you be back there! Hope you enjoy a lot. I'm hungry watching your vlog now!😋 i really miss street food in Bangkok, everywhere in Thailand
wow mouth watering foods..love your videos Sonny.thanks to you and your team.greetings from Philippines
Yessss definitely do more buffet's 👍❤️ that was really cool
YOU ARE THE MOST FUN FOOD VLOGGER TO WATCH 😄❤️❤️❤️
I lived in BKK for a few years. I loved all the food! I use to do the different buffets with my wife on her day off. Amari was one of my favorites. The first one looked like Chaduchuk Market or close to Mo Chit? I can't wait to go back to see my son. Hopefully you have been to Noodle Boat alley by Victory monument. That place is where people consume vast amounts of noodle. Meh Luong Hang, aroi mak mak.
First one is outside of lumpini park
@@Sherryn_ne That looks pretty sparse for Silom. Lumpini is a great place both areas have large parks. It is why I thought it was Mo Chit.
Sonny, you are my hero! 🙏🏽 🙏🏽 🙏🏽
agree.
🤔
10:52 This is the funniest moment in this video. Same thoughts tho like why would you get a burger when ure surrounded with seafood and grilled dishes. 😭
great video . food looked good
YES more buffet comparisons from around the world please! This one was droolariffic. Loved the confirmation of correctness from the camera lady on the oysters. It's a shame you didn't try the rest of the cheap buffet foods. But now I must travel there and try them... haha. Good stuff, .... Food Lord... and aah peace ✌
One of my best buffet experiences were in Atlantis hotel, Dubai. There are 2 buffet restaurants and both are amazing. I liked Kaleidoscope.
Glad to see you're back in Thailand! I'm Thai and kept visiting back to the videos you made in Thailand like 4 -5 years ago and hoped that you would come back because a lot of things have changed over the years!
I looooooooooooove your work,Sonny - & of your team! Enjoying the fun of your buffet adventures as well!!! Keep them coming - along with your ‘food doco’ adventures. Always a pleasure to vicariously enjoy your food adventures! Thank you!🎖🎖🎖💞💞💞😎😎😎
I really enjoy seeing all the south-east Asian videos. They remind me of home. I've been over 3000 miles away from family for the past three years and these videos help.
“I’m in Mark’s city doing Mark’s moves”
I love when sonny says he didn’t know Ireland had oysters 🦪fun fact: Ireland is the second highest exporter of oysters in the world! 🌎 🤙🏼🇮🇪🇮🇪
Lol I would think any country that has access to the ocean can possibly find oysters! With modern farming I’m sure even landlocked countries can farm oysters!
@@zacsmithful That's bad because? If you're going to be a snarky, condescending shite, maybe have a bit of common sense and self-awareness first.
@@zacsmithful I’m from Ireland 🇮🇪
@@jon6309 what was the point of this comment? 😂😂😂
@@laurawalsh3225 that people lack common sense!
Everyone would enjoy the Marriott, it looks awesome with a mix of Eastern and Western cuisine. Just the variety would last me a few days to get through. I really do appreciate everyday street food though, and that $1.41 buffet would be something I can imagine going to frequently, especially if I can eat for 2 whole months for the same price.
wow great point! when you put it like that!
I'm delighted that you mentioned the Irish oysters from Dungarvan. Haven't had them myself but will give them a blast if I'm ever down that neck of the woods. Love the content you guys put up. Keep it up lads ;-)
2hrs is a good time. Here in Melbourne most buffets have 1.5hr sittings so you feel you have to rush if you want to try everything. The street one was awesome. Super cheap which means you could go back a couple times a week! Great vid Sonny
Great episode as always! When ever you're in Thailand you gotta get a hold of the 🤴 Mark! Hope to see a collaboration soon!
he's currently out of the country
I’ve been to the second buffet! It was so good but overwhelming for me, When I go back to Thailand I’m definitely gonna go to a lot more street food.
OMG!!! That Marriott’s buffet is like being in Disney World. I’m so envious. Great job as usual Sonny! Keep them coming.
Please include location for those of us who want to go try! Thanks
They both looked great I wish I could eat oysters, especially raw but you almost made me feel like I could eat one, almost. (Tried one once and eurrkk, wish I had the taste buds for them) Great video, both were amazing in their own cost/costless way. More buffets!
I prefer it with with asian pepper sauce, "Jeow" Thai chili peppers, garlic cloves, some salt, sugar, limes, msg, cilantro. Goes with all meats. That shit is bomb!
I wish I could download the food review show food, just to have a taste of what Sonny is having 😋😋😍
Amazing food… incredible people.love the episode
Gotta watch videos, especially this one at 1.5 speed. lol, great vid, thanks!
I've watched just about every video you have ever made, and I think the $83 buffet is the place i'd eat at everyday for the rest of my life. Absolutely incredible!
You have to go to 'Somyoth' Restaurant in Chok Chai 4, the best soft shell crab curry in Bangkok and many other great Thai dishes in a very local setting. Very inexpensive for what you're getting, must try! We can guide you through the menu, we go there often
It'd be pretty awesome if you did videos, a mix, of some of the local food, but also highlighting the architecture or awesome sights to see in the area you're visiting. Could maybe be a playlist all its own.
AWESOME SHOW THANK YOU 🙂
Excelent video. Love it
Sonny, whenever I see your these kind of buffet style dining review feel more hungry.. in fact, ❤ the show. Thanks to all the BEFR team. With lots of ❤ from Kolkata, India 🇮🇳
More buffets in different countries would be so cool! This video is awesome
Buffets that reflect the local foods - not some corporate generic big box western bland buffet with extra beef...
@@godslayer1415 ok doomer
Another outstanding video, and defiantly more buffet videos please. ...And crunchy fried baby crab, and bone marrow videos please. thanks for the brilliant travel content, truly fantastic viewing!
I love how when he takes a bite and goes “OHMMM”
Bro i love this guy so much so entertaining,gives experience and handsome :)
I'd eat at both. But never been to Thailand but I want to go. Everything looked good . 😋😋😋
Please try more buffets in different countries we love it 🥰
Man, I absolutely love your show!
That Marriott buffet looks amazing, yum
I love this Episode... The $1.41 was a good meal but the Marriott food was dazzling nice which is good when you want to give yourself a treat... I'd really want to visit South East Asia (Thailand or Vietnam) I don't mind if anyone's got info on company or organization that can sponsor adventurer like myself... Sir Sonny, you're the best anyday, anytime!!!!
U made my mouth watering with all those foods.
Great videos. Made me really hungry!😊
Honestly Sonny, you have tried almost every Asian dish out there. So I have to ask, flavor wise, do you like Asian food better or American food?
Bro you mean McDonald and pizza is food?
If he liked American food he wouldn’t be in Asia for the longest
This guy is the greatest of all times when it comes to food he eats anything yet he looks happy and healthy😂
My grandma lives outside of Bangkok and your videos help me get a grasp on food and culture before I make the trip
Yes more buffet comparisons please
I have lived in Thailand for over 25 years and my Thai wife wouldn't even go in the Marriot. She would plumb for the street food and I must say so would I. To get that selection for 50bht is a steal. Because I have lived here so long I eat like Thai's, little and often. The food looked great at the Marriot but I couldn't eat more than a Noodle soup and 1 other dish. So pointless even going for us. Great Vlog though.
