🥒 ABOUT BEFRS:
Hey, I’m Sonny! I’m from the US but I’ve been living in Asia for 10 years and started making food and travel videos to document my experiences. I travel to different parts of the world, hunting down and documenting the most unique food each country has to offer.

If you see any factual food errors in my videos, please feel free to politely let me know in the comments. I’m a huge fan of trying different, interesting foods in each country. My show is from a Western point of view, but more importantly, MY point of view. It is not meant to offend any person or culture.

  1. Crazy part is I'm part hispanic but I'm allergic to fava beans. Since I live on the east coast of the US, drs frequently ask me what's fava beans.. Let's talk about how long it takes them to understand the description 🤦🏽‍♀

  2. There is a restaurant near me called Chicken Fiesta. I don't know if they are everywhere or just local. They serve Mexican based chicken recipes. They serve Yucca fries as a side and they are really good! In fact, everything I have ever had from there is delicious! Their chicken soup is AMAZING!

  3. It seems like if you lightly grill or pan sear or boil aldente you could split the cactus leaf and scoop out some of the gooey bit, then stuff it with meat and/or cheese then bake or coat and fry (like a relleno). Bet that would be good

  4. Sunny you always make me laugh 😆 and German is a great co-host, i really did enjoy watching you both, and it was so nice to see all the different ways nopales can be made.

  5. Slime in general makes me nauseous so I'd try this but I'd probably insult the chef by not finishing my meal. I wonder how it would be smoked. Cactus jerky sounds interesting.

  6. How have you never seen it before??? For a person that eats all this crazy stuff I’m surprised he doesn’t know about Nopales… it’s well known & eaten in so many places in the US especially in California.

  7. I really like your videos. Even if I haven't taste the food in your videos I can still feel how it taste because of the way you describing it and the ingredients as well. I'm hoping more videos from your youtube channel so that I can discover new exotic foods that I haven't heard before. Thanks to you sir.
