Uncle Roger @mrnigelng and Mark Wiens go eat spicy Thai jungle food!! Watch Uncle Roger's video here: https://youtu.be/CFuAaepJ1dE?si=1-XCsm7gl5ETCsCL 🦐 Thailand’s Biggest Shrimp: https://youtu.be/Q9lpcepl708 Today I’m taking Uncle Roger (@mrnigelng) to try spicy and unique Thai jungle food for the first time… we’ll try some classic Thai dishes like tom yum and deer, and a few more bizarre dishes like angry rat and fried frog. First we headed back to the kitchen to see some of the cooking and see the ingredients that go into the cooking. Everything gets a full treatment of their own signature curry paste and plenty of extra seasonings like fingerroot, basil, and makwaen. The result is a complex layering of flavors, some spicy and peppery, with a strong and incredible taste. Thai jungle food is known for its use of unique and exotic meats - from wild river fish, to more extreme protein options like rats and cobras (though they didn’t have cobra today). Traditionally jungle food came about from the countryside where they fished, hunted, and foraged for ingredients and often used strong spices and herbs from the forest to contrast the taste of wild meats. We had a lot of fun and enjoyed all the amazing Thai jungle food - I think even Uncle Roger enjoyed the rat!

Normally, Thai people eat jungle curry or spicy stir-fry with rice, along with milder side dishes like omelets or fried fish to balance the flavors. Mark's really putting Uncle Roger’s taste buds through a workout!

Uncle Roger makes fun of White people they can’t handle spice, they not man enough. And then he met Mark Wiens.

Two uncles really know their stuff. They describe ingredients, cooking techniques or stories behind dishes. Not just ordinary food vlogging. The real uncles of asian

the fact that only ONE thai auntie made the entire dish roster by herself while uncle roger and mark were watching is pretty insane tbh

7:25 mark is super eloquent.. The reason why I still am a fan up to now even there are plenty of vloggers came out is that he's very good in explaining and describing what he's experiencing and tasting as if I was there and taste everything just by his words.. mark is a brilliant guy nobody can replace.

As a Thai, I love to see these kind of local restaurants being presented to the audience instead of the touristy ones. This is as authentic the dishes could be.

"You like everything" - that's the most honest statement Rogers gave about Mark
