The COLDEST Place in Thailand - Adventure w/Li in Phu Ruea Eating the HOTTEST Food We Find!! :)
Vložit

- The final day of our Holiday trip brings Li and I to the coldest district in all of Thailand! Thank you for joining us here!
Phu Ruea, a district of Loei province, is uniquely situated geographically making it the coldest part of Thailand, even though its neither the farthest North, nor the highest in terms of elevation. It was the day after New Year's, and I did not want to miss the chance to visit this area (specifically, during the time when it would also BE the coldest week of all of Thailand, and see just HOW cold it would be!)
There's no snow in Thailand, but honestly, when an average day here includes afternoon temps of 36C (yes, even in the 'winter'), feeling temperatures in the single digits is amazing! Chilly indeed! and of course we needed to find the most TASTY ways to warm up on such a day like today!
Thank you for joining us today, I would love to visit Loei again and again, theres just an incredible amount of ultra-local stuff to explore in these quite overlooked areas along Thailand's border regions. Always my own favorite areas to visit, and I can't wait for the next chance to spend more time in Loei.
Much love everyone!! I hope you are having a very wonderful Monday as you watch this video :)

There's no Google Maps location, but I remember it was after an airport on the South side of the highway, and before a brand new (Jan '21) PTT station on the North Side - this is if you are traveling North from Lom Sak to Phu Reua, youll find it around 20km before reaching the base of the climb for the Phu Ruea National Park.

Clicking on to your Thai road trip video (especially on your bicycle) is like “opening up a box of chocolates.” .... full of sweetness and wanting everything in it.
One of my many favorites!
JAY! Kay!! Boom!!
What an awesome comment, I really feel your joy sometimes, even in the short comments like this just such cool, very unique, very thoughtful messages. I took a minute just now to appreciate that, OK now I’m smiling because there’s just one small detail to add. It would be like a box of chocolates if there was just one momentary bite with grits of sand in it. To make you smile, a common experience on a bike ride around here is, I have to wipe my teeth off because I usually smile so many times that the sand and dust From the road eventually leave a fine coating on my teeth, I’m not kidding, it’s very funny though, because it means that I’ve been having a good time
Gotta pin it, I love your comment and I was laughing hard with that little detail I shared (funny, and very true!)
@@JoelsTastyRide thanks for sharing that story. It’s the real “True Grit,” Thai version, so to speak.
hahaaaa, yes!! nice one :)
Nice view i just love it❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ & Love From Bangladesh
Wow what a great day and sight...thanks Joel and Li for sharing those amazing adventure and yummy food
Hi Marilyn, thanks so much for joining us, hope you to enjoy seeing some new food but also I hope it motivates you to just keep your eyes open for the small beautiful things that are around us every day. Have a great day, happy Monday
Keep these videos coming , Joel . They are amongst the highlights of the week for some of us who have been locked down more or less constantly for several months. Makes me look forward to seeing some of the places you visit and trying some of the food you order when such travel is possible again.
Primemutton!!! Amazing support right there thank you so much man. May I ask where are you confined right now? We are fortunate to not have a total lockdown, but I am also under restriction here, that’s why we are doing only local trips, but this is only occasionally :-) remember, the video was only one meal out of maybe 20, the other 19 I was in my house :-)
@@JoelsTastyRide Manchester U.K. , some form of lockdown here since mid October. But as someone who travels a lot and likes his food , I find the videos fascinating. Wish I’d have spent more time visiting more parts of Thailand other than the main tourist haunts. Didn’t see the dishes you ordered much even in Phuket , Samui etc. I wish the thai restaurants near me watched your channel as much as I do so they can put some of these dishes on their menu! Looking forward to your next video.
Awesome video Joel And Li!! Li needs some chicken Feet! Hehe. Stay Blessed you 2!!
Scott!! More photos to send your way just some small bit of enjoyment, hope you’re having a great one today bro. Thanks again for taking the time to cheer us on. Much love, God bless us all today!
Ohh! Man, and Scott, I guess this is the third time now I’m asking for your email, I sent out an email yesterday and I just now realized your name is still not on the list. Or if it is, do you use an email that does not include your name?
@@JoelsTastyRide my email is scobada@hotmail.com
Blessings to you Joel and Li. Always enjoyable when you post. Keep being who you are
Thank you, I will TRY Max :). haha, I always say that though, we have to be honest when we say it of course but yes "Try" just make sure you are always trying, and that is success on a daily basis.

You are so refreshing. Being able to leave people in a better frame of mind than when you found them (or, in your case, when we find you) is a true gift. May God continue to bless you and yours.🙏
Yes! Thank you Pam, wow - of course I cannot expect it, but I do hope for this, I do TRY to do this of course, it is my joy to try but I also think its my responsibility on this world as well. God bless Pam! Have a great day today.

Narisa! I have my keyboard now so I’ve been wanting to try this, can you correct my spelling please :-)??
นาริศา
นริษา? :)
Hi Joel ! I am sorry for a delay.Ha ha
You are almost correct:)
It’s นรีศา โพธิ์แจ่ม ( still remember how to write my name) YIKE!
My Thai writing is not very good since I came to USA when I was 15 years old and I have forgotten all about it but I can still read but not perfect 😂
You are perfect in both writing and speaking in THAI .
Good Morning Joel ... Blessings to you & Li. I got a late start on today's video but am watching it & enjoying every minute of it while I have the Super Bowl on the TV live (on mute of course). Have a wonderful week! Yours in Christ! Ron P.S. I am hearing an extraordinary number of, "Oh Wow's" from you in this video ... now where oh where could you have you gotten that from? LOL! RB
Haha Ron!! I think that is an ultimate honor, I’m the one that gets the sound, the Super Bowl gets the mute. That is beautiful thank you, yes I really am honored. God bless man, I did leave the live stream up so if you have to link you can continue to enjoy it, I just took it off of the main page is all. Ron I really hope you’re well, much love to you and the whole family today. Speak again soon! All the best
Good afternoon joel and Li thanks for taking us on your adventures everything is so beautiful. Food looks amazing ..

Love your vlog. Good job!
Glad you enjoyed it Mark, I appreciate you taking the time to write today - much love man! All the best
Great video Joel. Your Thai language skills open up a lot more doors. Those dishes look unique. I think you should start posting recipes for such unique items, which we can try and experience.

LOOKS AMAZING JOEL! Can't wait to fly back and swim in the BLA Pool ;)
HaHA!! That is great, I don’t know if you mean PlaRaa but, I think both would be hilarious to see :-)
i love sum tom papaya salad with white sticky rice too.... it's tasty so good... ✌😁
Muam! nyobZoo, Hope you’re doing well today :-) papaya salad lover cheers, with the white sticky rice, hope you’re having a great day today
your salad is on the bush sir - its a new take on picking your own - Stay safe you two
Haha Frank! Thats great, I am just imagining that order situation right now... hahaha :)
I wonder if Joel ever gets mad, he is so calm he makes me feel at peace is why I'm here. And Ill always watch if it's sum tom.
Whoa.
Yes Angel, youre amazing! And yes, I am human. I do lose my patience, but I regret those times for sure!
Always trying, always striving, trying to be an example where I can.
I was wondering this myself today, Joel looks like amazing person to be friends with! Li definitely one lucky girl.
This is one of the few videos that made my mouth water just watching!
Too cool Ninja! Hey thanks for the messages, hope youre doing well!
@@JoelsTastyRide thanks for the response. I miss Thailand and Laos. I watch your channel to feel closer to Thailand without being there. Love your channel and your spirit brother, hope all the best for you. Peace be with you.
1 of the Best videos!!
Lim Lee!!!!! YO. great to see you! Hope you have been well!!
Blessings Joel and Li. Thank you very much for a new video! 🇵🇷🙏👍
Iván!!! Blessings and love to the whole family, really stoked to see you on the live stream again from the beginning, and then right here you were almost the first one to comment for this video. The support is so wonderful, God bless man, speak again soon
Joel and Li, ya'll are inspiring. I made my take on Pad Woon Sen tonight after work. Been exploring cooking with glass noodles. I used red onions, julienned fresh ginger, garlic, baby Bella mushrooms, yellow squash, broccoli florets, and two red Thai chilis. For the sauce, I used soy, oyster, and fish sauces combined with honey and chicken broth. Turned out great. I ordered two Kratibs from a young lady in Thailand on the Etsy site so I can carry my sticky rice to work. lol. I cook my sticky rice in a traditional bamboo cone steamer. I think I'm turning Thai. I really think so. 😎 Blessings to you, Li, and the people of Loei province.
This is awesome :-) I love the comment I think I am turning Thai! Where do you live in Thailand? I love that you use a traditional con steamer, I’ve never even used one of those :-) this is amazing, I hope you have a great time with the glass noodles tonight, really sounds tasty. I’m lucky it’s dinner time myself or you would make me hungry
I have and use the traditional bamboo steamer too for my sticky rice ... it's such a neat little gadget and so simple to use!! Have a great day 🥰
Yes!! Oh wow, both of you are doing great, yeah I don’t even have one
@@JoelsTastyRide Sent you a reply to your e-mail joelbrunervlogs@gmail.com
Never knew you had a channel. Always saw you on marks channel. So cool and your doing a smash of a job. Cant wait to binge watch your vids
Nice seen you in a couple videos with Mark Wiens, didn’t know you had your own channel. 👌 Just subscribed.
I love the coffee shop visits. I remember them when we could travel to Thailand.
Thanks for the good work you two!
Luke! That’s awesome that you have spent time in Thailand, I am sure you know a thing or two about coffee shops just from the one visit then :-) ha ha, have a great day today, hope you enjoyed today’s video
Wow the trees so much of color... so Beautiful Joel n Li... the food looks so Awesome, but I'm so allergic to tomatoes.. Awesome Video and love Seeing You guys Alwayss.. enjOy and may GOD bless you All Always. Love you guys xx
Thanks so much Scotty! Hey thanks for joining us yesterday as well, that was really cool to see you! Always a cool surprise, always blessing us with your positive attitude

@@TheSankyu99 you’re welcome have a great day 🤗
Yoooo Florencia :). Haha, I hope you can imagine my sound effects,... the same way that I usually say aloud all of the emojis that you pick out for me. I DO respect that it takes time to pick all of those, I always appreciate it!!
Yahoooo MS! Thanks again for the really cool comments and kind words (and your generosity!!!) in our live streams, AND you still come here to comment as well :). one of the original followers I had here, I cant forget that.
@@JoelsTastyRide yoooooo! hahahaha LOVE IT!!! Thanks for writing me today! I always love sending you emojis here!!! It’s always fun! So glad u enjoy them too!!!! P. S It was Steven Douglas’ birthday yesterday and I sent u a message on instagram hehe
Wow. That food variety looked so yummy. Here in Edmonton, for just one plate it would cost would you payed for the whole meal 😆 🤣 😂
got to love aroy mak Thai place that's cool.. Happy New Year .... 🙏... cheers :)
Happy new year!! Thanks a lot TRT! Blessings!
You guys are of the purest ❤
Sherri, I am blessed by you taking the time to write so thank you very much for that. All the best today, hope things are going as well as can be
A som tam feast video before breakfast really gets you out of bed 😄
OK man I got to give it to you, you really do love the papaya salad :-) I’m sure you must noticed that papaya salad has featured in maybe eight of the last 10 videos ha ha and there is no shortage, maybe no stopping that… I wrote an article for the place you recommended actually, that was about three years ago, I still need to go back and make a video now that I have a CZcams channel in my own name
When all else fails, a big thumbs up is universal for Peace!
JAMES! Man, so appreciate you taking (a big part!) in our live hangout yesterday. Really cool man.
Thanks for coming to watch today’s video and thank you so much for the big thumbs up!!
THANK YOU JOEL AND LI. BEAUTIFUL....I ENJOYED YOUR DAY
Glad you enjoyed it ONE LOVE, I love your name, always appreciate your energy!
That food looks tasty already. Looking forward to this video, half way through but had to get some noodles to watch with! Hope everyone is doing good, stay safe! 👍👍
Pinned on PLACES :). I may or may not have taking some inspiration from your name :). Hey! By the way, did you get a sticker on our map? Please join the livestream, if even for a just a few minutes, and this Sunday morning I will add a sticker for you.
@@JoelsTastyRide Missed the Livestream but watched it on replay. Portsmouth, UK if you are adding to the map is our location. Have a great day!
sheesh...it goes to -15*c here in Korea at times. There is this fun thing we do where we throw water up in the air (hot or cold) and just watch as the liquid freezes even before it hits the ground!. Trust me you dont wanna get hit in the face with 2 cups of instant-frozen water or juice......that hurts..alot! Btw Another amazing vid from you Joel. Thank you and STAY BLESSED UP!!
Glitttttter Farrrrrrrrt You are a legend. I can’t believe that someone would do that throw into the face with the water, I’ve seen people doing that trick for Instagram, yes I know about the freezing thing… Just from living in Canada for one year. Stay strong stay happy stay fun :-) please please whatever you do continue coming for the live stream it is just so much fun hanging out, really been loving it lately, thanks for just being yourself and having a blast
@@JoelsTastyRide Thank for your kind words man. Your livestreams are the only ones i really enjoy. You are the best dude. Stay up ya amazing legend!!
@@glitterfart151 Hello Glitter or do you prefer Mr. Fart??? Whatever, hope you're keeping warm in your -15C weather ... eat a nutty cookie and drink some hot milk to wash it down and warm you up at the same time. 🥰🥰🥰 I've heard of throwing water in the air and watching it freeze but I've yet to try it but time time of year warning signs are plentiful in the City reminding people to steer clear of tall buildings because of falling icicles ... they can do some really serious damage!! Look forward to seeing you at the next live stream (I agree with Joel) ... you and @Adam N are legends!!!
@@missbiggs9437 Thanks Biggs and please call me Glitter or George. Fortunately the weather is getting warmer but even now i cant go wrong without a good ol cookie and some milk....or coffee. @Adam N , you , Joel and the others are the true legends man :) BLESS UP!!
Today’s lunch spread sure did look tasty! I don’t know if I’ve ever seen you eat something as sweet as that brownie. It’s good for you every now and then. Have a great week Joel & Li!
So good! I see you are getting to know me a bit Carli, but also.... ok I can admit, haha, I do occasionally want to go find ice cream and a brownie. Some things are just too good, sweet or not, weak teeth or not :). I think the "sweets' comment is interesting though, because scientifically speaking I eat a MASSIVE amount of sugar every single day. During my solo bike riding last week I ate nearly 18,000 calories of ripe banana, dates, sugarcane juice, coca cola, and coconut water, on top of the "normal food" of about 6,000 calories of oatmeal, and then 10,000 calories of rice, veggies, eggs that I eat when Im done with the rides. Yes I do keep very close track as you can see, haha, total for 5 days was 33,900kJ of work, which translates roughly 1 to 1, so 33,900 Cal of food required.
ha! So just looking at it that way... My entire week last week was approx 90% carbohydrates, (60% of that being simple sugars/natural sugars!) and only 10% protein and fat together!
@@JoelsTastyRide that’s quite a breakdown! But I don’t really think there is a comparison between bananas and brownies.
i really had no idea how serious the thai people take coffee until i found your channel. its pretty incredible and intimidating looking all at the same time! i grew up working in a few coffee shops in the states. these places look so exotic
Oltor! Hey man, great comment, and a coffee-love-cheers to you today. Actually when I first moved to Thailand (2009) specialty coffee was almost non-existent. In the past 5 years, its gotten (wonderfully) out of control! A great place to be a coffee nerd right now FOR SURE
@@JoelsTastyRide what do you think it was that grew specialty coffees popularity so recently?
@@JoelsTastyRide also i want to say thanks for all the interaction in the comments. one day your channel will be far too big to keep up with everyone! im shocked you are able to find the time now. i wish you the most success.
Thanks for another great video. The food looks amazing as always. Ty for sharing. You and Li continue to stay safe and eating the best food out there. -- Much Love.😊
Thanks so much Vivao, awesome support :). Hope you are doing very well today, thanks a ton for a really cool message today :-)
Rosela/hibiscus, love it. They drink it warm( as tea) in south Egypt after eating, good for stomach
Ah Francis!! Great info as usual (super cool plant, so many names!) ok so in Egypt it would be used for millennia even, definitely near the source of origin right there
Happy & healthy new year to you both !!! Wishing a happy .. healthy & nothing but great things !!! Always look forward to seeing all your videos & the delicious foods you both are eating !!! Yummy !!! 😋.. be & stay safe & Buddha Bless from NJ USA 🇺🇸❤️🙏🏽❤️🙏🏽
Great message, again Joyous!!! God bless, thank you for your kind words - super support :) Much love!!! See you for the next one, and take care in the NJ :)
YOYO BROTHER JOEL UN SISDA LI,ANUVA GREAT WATCH GUYS,TAKE IT EAZY GUYS,,,,,,BLESS UP FROM LONDON UK
BRO! Onyx, hey thanks again for sharing your time with all of us yesterday, sharing the brightness and positivity (I really needed that yesterday, honestly man!). Thank you for being you bro, Blessings and Love!
I have to look the whole video because I miss Thailand so much. That amazing content. Thanks for sharing. I love it.
More to come! Oum, so great to have you here! Papaya salad loving CHEERS!
Another nice video buddy. Love the ride.
Your personality rocks.
Love the foodie stuff.
Keep it up my friend.
Be safe.
Thank you kindly sir!!! Awesome Red Cowboy, really appreciate the words of motivation - dig it!!
Hope things are going as well, as smoothly as possible today for you! Speak again soon!
@@JoelsTastyRide Joel I will plan a short drive around essan soon.
Would be cool to go ride together or hang out.
Let's keep in touch.
Drove home after my night shift and it was -40C in Alberta Canada.. going through a deep freeze! But of course 12C is cold where it's normally so much warmer!! You and Li are so adorable together! You two are so active with hiking and biking, such great role models :) And of course that food!!!! Love all the herbs used!! Yummmmy! Enjoy and have a beautiful day ❤️ (and of course enjoy the cofffeeeee!!!)
Oh .... my. LouLieu, you are the winner (so far) haha, the winner of my own question as to "who has the coldest day today?" That is incredible. I am impressed, and I could never imagine making it through more than ONE winter like that. Which is honestly a huge reason why I live in Thailand in the first place! The swings in yearly annual temperature in Canada are incredible!!! True, the high here is higher, but not by much... but the low here is NOTHING compared to what you are in right now! :). Oh wow. Hey drive safe and yes, let the coffee work its magic :). Have a beautiful day, thanks for another great comment
Yes it’s cold out west. It’s dropping down to around -20C tonight so maybe I shouldn’t complain too hard! 🥰
@@missbiggs9437stay warm!! :)
Loved the video , Nice food spread yummy, also enjoyed the guitar, music who is playing the song?.👍🏼👌🏼
Hey Joel the Super Bowl is on get us some snack food for the game haha
Deal! Chris thats awesome man! Hope that your team pulls it off!
@@JoelsTastyRide Hey Joel thanks again for using your gift I learned a lot about the region and about the food in that area that was awesome but as you know you the man haha take care bro God bless you
Got so excited I forgot what else I wanted to say ! 🤪 Wish I could’ve joined you for a cup of Expresso ☕️☕️☕️ and though the chocolate cake looked really yummy, I’d have to take a pass!!🥰🥰🥰
No worries! Hey, you send so much our way anyways, hey thanks again by the way for hanging with us for all 6 HOURS! :) Amazing Miss Biggs haha, love, absolutely LOVE the banter lately :)
I love, love, love your videos. It makes me salivate every time I watch you guys eat
Anthony, wow, I feel the love! Thank you! Thanks so much, really cool to have you - hope to see you right back here in 2 more days for the next one!
I am enjoying your videos! I am liking how you added your own style and Flair like interpretation of words in your video oh, I really like that and telling us what they mean! I like how you integrated riding your bike in your videos that is interesting as well! I've only watched two videos so far but plan to watch more. I have watched you for a long time with Mark and I like that you didn't copy his style of videos that you are doing your own thing which is very refreshing! Good luck, I'm sure I will enjoy all of your videos!
I love you guys, best scenery ever .the food looked exceptional. I wanted to visit Japan, but Thailand looks so beautiful. And the people so friendly and hospitable. Thanks Joel for another great video. Be blessed.
Next time! Janet thats amazing, thanks for a really good comment today!!! Blessings, and good luck with staying patient until these trips can be a reality!
I really liked the "fast action" scene of you-all plowing through all that amazing food!
So awesome Don, imagine if humans could really eat at that speed.... haha :)
Hello Joel and Li, looked like a great meal, I know both of you enjoyed it and always follow up a great meal with a great coffee .
James!!! I think you sir, wishing you well today, I think you have been on an unbroken streak of at least a dozen videos now, thanks for always taking the time to send us some love. Hope things are going well today
COLD!!!! You’re in a T shirt 😂lol we have snow here in Essex bro!!! 😩😂... Food looked amazing and as always you explain it all so well.... Love to you and Li, stay safe.... JP x
😁 hahaha. Thats the emoji right there.
Oh man, JP yes I am aware that its not ACTUALLY cold here but, all about comparison man, I remember going to school in Michigan, that after a bad winter, 10C was AMAZING. RUnning around shirtless, playing frisbee, it was amazing! Here, people are literally wearing parka jackets whenever its below 20C. No jokes.
@@JoelsTastyRide lol !! 😂 i know bro last time i was in Thailand was christmas time and there were people in coats hats scarfs and gloves!!!! i was in shorts and a vest! lol.... Have you heard of Wim Hof? periods of extreme cold are really beneficial to mental state and health..... Mind you a long period of heat in Thailand would be beneficial to me right now man!!!! 😂😂😂😂
music at 20;20 is just cool. thanks for sharing J
Thanks for listening, thanks for watching Elsa! Wishing you all the best today!
Wearing a tshirt and telling us its cold lol 🤣🤣its 1° here xx
HAH!!! I knew it, I was waiting for a comment like this :-) it really was cold though, I was regretting not just keeping my cycling gear on for the whole day
@@JoelsTastyRide yep we will have to wrap u up in thermals if you ever visit here and thats in summer hahaha xx
We just had a big snow storm here in grand rapids, michigan usa this past weekend. 10 inches of snow! Its 14 degrees ferenheite right now.

Hello Caleb, thanks for your reply and great as always hearing from you. 😊 I’m keeping well thanks. Today’s been a long and cold 🥶 one; it’s about-20C at the moment. It’s pretty late now but I’ve been up catching up on some paperwork then heading to bed 🛌 💤 soon. Happy to hear your physio went well! Have a great rest of the week and keep safe!! 🥰🥰🥰
Great vid Joel 😊👍
Keep on joel you deserve the best, unfortunately you dont focused obviously too much on yt like mark but when you stay consistent with your videos you‘ll get what you deserve for your good work greeting from cold germany!
I appreciate that! Have a great day Talha! Keep supporting this, and keep sharing the positivity - thats the only growth I need - and to that I am extremely dedicated and focused. 24 - 7
👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽 great video!

Oh wow, Coco hey no problem, very happy to see you enjoying these. Hope you can have a chance to get back home very soon!
Your positive attitude is so refreshing on you tube! Peace....
Awesome Jellyfish! So great to have you here, love your attitude as well!
1:09 I love the pair of sunny side eggs on your helmet! I have a t-shirt covered with sunny side eggs!! 🍳
Macadamia nuts are native to Australia and were introduced to Hawaii in the late 1880s. We had one in the backyard when I was growing up in Sydney and used to get so many nuts from it that we would give them away to all the neighbours and family.
JON! Great message, super cool, love that you took the time to teach me a bit, and then join us for the video as well!
Thanks for that ok, I will remember for the next time I have them - cheers man! All the best
@@JoelsTastyRide great channel and content, looking forward to more from you.
Was macadamia nuts ever used in traditional medicine in Australia?
0MG !! I just find out that you have your own CZcams channel. I see your video after I’m watching Mark Weis. Love it 🥰
The food looks delicious. And I know it was great. Be safe Joel and LI
Hiii Christine! Hope things are well! Much love, have a great day!
4c degrees 😳 Can’t imagine having to wear a jacket in the sun in Thailand!! We are having a strange summer here in Sydney and the coolest it has gotten is the low twenties.
Aaron!! Hey hey thanks for the response on that! interesting, hey I hope youre finding ways to enjoy it (something new right??). I usually follow the Tour Down Under, and those guys suffer in some serious heat, its always 42-43C on at least one stage, people dropping out every hour. crazy tough! Have a great day man, cheers :). all the best
Sabaidee Joel & Li.. Joel I must tell you that your parents should be so proud !!! You are truly such a beautiful , humble soul … May Buddha bless & watch over you both 🙏🏽🙏🏽🥰.. Ty for always taking us along w/ you to all these beautiful places & the food .. omg just over the top & $11 !!!! That would of been over $100 USD here in jersey .. Again I ty .. xxx from Nj 🇺🇸
God bless you and keep you safe Joel and Li!! I always look forward to your vlogs! You are an inspiration!! 🙏🏻❤️🙏🏻
Thank you so much! Julie, great to see your name!! Hope you have been very well :)
@@JoelsTastyRide teaching fourth grade kids during this time of distance learning has never been so challenging and a blessing at the same time! God gives me strength and wisdom everyday !! 🙏🏻❤️
I just love chewing through cartilage, especially eating spare ribs in ok sauce, Scrummy. It brings an extra texture to the dish. Great vid as always Joel.
I am hungry just waiting forever for you to finally eat 🤣🤤
Deana!! Haha OK OK, I will apologize just for you, but in general I never wanted to make a food channel, the food is just one of three or four parts for me. But I’m sorry you have to wait :-) what did you do in the meantime? Which part did you appreciate that wasn’t related to food?
Very interesting flower it reminds me of Rosa de Jamaica (Hibiscus) Delicious also. Never seen Dragon fruit
plant growing, thank you for the view.
incredibly editing and beautiful trees&flowers. Not sure why this is not as popular as Mark's videos...
Wow, thank you! Really Buyu thats an amazing comment! Well, never fear, I am happy with all of your support, really and truly happy, and our shared positivity is THE purpose of all of this for me! So in that, its already a success!!!
Freezing cold !! Hahaha everything is relative 😉!! I saw people on fat bike 🚴 on the snowy icy trail, you would love it. Had a tough for you on my walk in the wood with winter bird good to see you, English getting better to understand when speaking ✌🏼🇨🇦❄️❤️
Yes, it’s frigid and icy in Canada 🇨🇦 this weekend....brrrrrr❄️☃️💨❄️☃️💨
ABSOLUTELY loved your video, your gift to me today was perfect! I watched it 3 times, not kidding. Such a perfectly peaceful setting you found today, much love to you today in Quebec Jean Louis - I have only been as far as Ottawa, but we did some wonderful snow-shoe outings and cross-country skiing as well (I was 10 years old, but I still remember it very well! a short 3 day trip, but beautiful memories!!)
ah cool! Are the two of you... 5 hours apart? 8 hours?
@@JoelsTastyRide No, neighbours actually - same time zone.☺️
@@JoelsTastyRide Ahh ... only just realizing I think I misunderstood your question ...Toronto's about a 5 hour drive from Montreal (Que) and Quebec City itself is roughly another 3 hours away so yes around 5hrs to Montreal and 8 to Quebec City should be correct ... I'm awake now (I think!) 🥰🥰🥰
Hi nice people enjoy nice weather enjoy yummy food i like cold (like where you are right now) more hot go to Alaska will see how cold it is.
Binh!!! Yo yo yo, Hope you’re having a great day today, I would love to visit absolutely dream to visit Alaska and it would be great to hang out with you
You and Mark really inspired me to garnish my meals with herbs and sauces. Really levels dishes up when I chase my bites with different herbs.
That is awesome! WAY cool, happy to read this!!! Which herbs are most easy to come by? I love your words "level up" is right!!!!
Looks yummy
Thank you 😋 Great to see you Sunday sornram :) :) hope youre doing well today!
Absolutely drooling over your lunch! Som tam is my favourite salad in the world. Where I live I almost never get papaya so I sub cabbage.
It's so good! Super cool Stephen wow - thats a genius move! The crunch might even be MORE powerful!!!
Som tams looked amazing thats what i do to make it a whole meal without rice , i add prawns, mackerel or crabsticks and mix the green papaya with cucumber too 😊😉
@@TheTravellingScotsman thankyou i love cooking but need to stop feeding everyone lol !!!
Great idea, whoa! Yes, mackarel, I am thinking.... ok, I have never had Som Tam with Mackarel. Im sure, and Im SURE I would like to try! Maybe deep fried, just the meat in shreds, and then yea sour chilies and fresh cucumber would really go well with that!
hahaha oh my.... I think shes speaks truth. Her photos are INCREDIBLE.
for sure Steven!!!!!
Good adventure similar my country dear
Haha this made me laugh 😆 the coldest place in Thailand while I'm sitting here in Minnesota at -27° F 🥶
Miles full of Smiles! There are many reasons why I live in Thailand :). This is one of them for sure! Stay strong in Minnesota, I did go to college in Michigan so I remember those mornings of -20 F with crazy wind.... whew!
Roselle, also called rosella, Jamaican sorrel, or java jute. This is related to Hibiscus. You didn't see sorrel in Jamaica because you went in January when the season is over but the drink is available. I'm really surprised to see it there in Thailand.
N Ram!! We did indeed have some tasty beverages there, of many many different kinds but this was always a favorite of mine from Mexico actually, so cool how plentiful Jamaica was, the abundance!! Just amazing ❤️
Thailand is the biggest exporter of roselle so I guess it grows a lot but I can’t say I see it often when in Thailand. Depends of region I guess
What I always appreciate about your videos is your respect and gratitude for all the delicious meals you have, for the Thai culture, and the people who are making your food. And, there’s nothing like having a meal with real food and not all of the processed stuff back in the States. Lol. The dishes always makes me salivate and reminds me of how good it was when I visited Thailand many years ago.
NYC!! Are you living in New York City? Thank you for really taking time to point out specific details. I really appreciate that. These are hopefully, the way that I’ve always been doing things here, I just now have the privilege of being able to share the videos and hopefully motivate and inspire in small ways like, well like you are writing me about today. So that makes me very happy, thanks for taking the time to get in touch
@@JoelsTastyRide: Indeed! I’m here in NYC. A Canadian expat though. : ) Living vicariously through you and Li’s travel and food adventures!
Wonderful video as always. We are in a awful frigid time here right now. -10 wind chills here. Could use some sunshine like you have lol. Stay safe as always you two ❤
Fingers crossed Andrew man, that is ROUGH. I cannot live there, definitely one of the reasons that I bought a one-way ticket in 2009. I hope for sunshine for you immediately! Rays of light also helping the soul, help lighten the load of all the cold and darkness (both inside and out, for sure! I am very affected by the outdoors, I feel both of these strongly!)
Thanks for the comment today man. Much love!!
Cold thats wonderfull just love cold.places
Khairoon!! Thats great, hey where are you living right now? Hope its not too WARM haha :). But really, how are things?
@@JoelsTastyRide im livingbin africa kenya mombasa things are ok but its too hot not cold like there🙂
Never knew any part of Thailand would get that cold. Always learning new things watching your videos. Have a great week.
Have a nice day Mz MineFind!! Thank you so much for watching all of these, AND taking time to write me! Dig it! Have a great one!
Phi ta khon festival , the ghost mask festival looks awesome i had to google it and its on the 12th-14th june this year its part of a cool buddhist holiday ,wow i wish i could see that 🤓😎🥳
YOO!! Always great with doing your homework that is so cool :-) thank you thank you, yes it really is just in an awkward time of year, all the years of being a teacher I could never hope to be free in June. This is my first year where I can plan my own schedule entirely, so let’s wait for June :-) much love today Shella, keeeeeep it rockin!! 💜 ♥️
Hi Joel,I'm was hungry when i saw you eating papaya Salad. Yummy!❤
Thank you 😋ThaiDE hope all is going as well as can be for you today! Thanks for the message!
Great work! Thanx.
Glad you liked it! Gregory hey thanks a lot for taking the time to comment!
The Blonde Coffee beans freshly ground there are Truly the Best .
That huge Mahlkonig for single dosing! 😁 Awesome vid as always!! Always so hungry after seeing & hearing about how fresh and bursting with flavor everything is 🤤🤩
So good! Hhaha, geeking out on Coffee Toys is ALWAYS welcome here :)
Great to see you MissIceCream, hope to hang out on Sunday if youre free!
@@JoelsTastyRide Fun!! I only get to geek out abt coffee on Reddit 😅 If you wouldn't mind a recc, I love James Hoffmann's channel for ☕💖 I definitely try to hang out on the live streams, but can usually only catch up after dinner! I always look forward to them so much 💗🙏💗
Wow.. Sorrel, we make a drink with that in Jamaica. Boiled with ginger, sweetened and chilled. Delicious!
Hope you enjoy one today Babajao! People here also use it like this, I wonder if someone from Thailand is working together, perfecting this flavor for production in both places :) :-D
Joel and Li, it is -14 degree here in Minnesota:) Stay warm and safe.
Pang Ngia!! That is amazing and… I would definitely not be able to handle that :-) thank you, you currently have the lowest temperature of any that I have seen, stay strong stay, I would say stay warm but I’m sure you are a pro at that
-45c here today in Canada with the wind, tomorrow is anticipated to -50c.
WHAT. OH my. This is incredible. Ok, a few of you now telling me about this (thank you for answering this by the way :). really happy with that! BUT, not so 'happy' to hear that you are basically in arctic weather now for many days, that is INTENSE). You are very, very strong, stronger than myself by a long ways!
You must be way up in Northern Canada as I'm in Ottawa and it's only -11 with the windchill today, wow that's coooolllld!
@@peterwho9380 Manitoba, the north is warmer LMFAO
@@JoelsTastyRide A period of severely cold wind chills is expected.
Extreme cold will persist for a few days.
An Arctic ridge of high pressure has allowed for a very cold air mass to settle over southern Saskatchewan and southern Manitoba.
Along with winds of 10 to 20 km/h, extreme wind chill values between -40 and -50 are expected over most of southern Manitoba and Saskatchewan.
The bitterly cold air will remain over the Prairies for much of the next week.
@MSMECHANIC Yikes.. hope you've got warm gloves and socks up there 🧤 🧦
Your thai is perfect. I was born in lao and grew up in Thailand. I shaw you many time in mark video but didn't know you had a CZcams channel to.
Tou, you are awesome, thanks so much for coming over here to check these out, check this one out today! Much love, hope you enjoy many more videos here - all the best :)
We have the sorrel plant in Trinidad too! It is prevalent around Christmas time and locals brew the typically ruby red drink spiced with cloves, nutmeg, ginger, sometimes with some rum.
We also produce a white rum infused with sorrel .
Another truly informative and, if I might add,, delectable video presentation. Great stuff, Joel. I love how you top it all off with a local coffee shop adventure! Keep ’em coming!
Deo!!! Amazing, thank you for taking the time! Don’t know how I can even respond to all of that, so much shared knowledge and also just happy energy, good vibes. Thank you for all of that :-) I cannot wait to visit Trinidad, that is a big one on the “soon to be visited list,” I had the entire trip planned out I don’t know if you know this but traveling with Mark and his family, we had to change the tickets literally three days before travel to Trinidad. Mark had bought all the tickets already
Joel, yes, I know! But in good time, Godspeed my friend.
