It's time for Food Adventure Program For Awesome People!!
S: The tradition edition
[music]
M: Ooo I like that
S: Thank you~ M: "Tradition edition"
M: [sings about tradition edition >.<]
M: I always try, but it never works
S: Every single freakin' F.A.P.F.A.P that we do
you always wanna have the remix edition song
[examples of Martina's awesome previous remixes]
M: Alright, this is the tradition edition for a reason
S: Yes M: We are not having the average Korean food
M: We've actually driven the EYK crew FOUR HOURS away from Seoul
S: FOUUUR HOURS!!!!
S: We are in 전라도
which supposedly has the best food in all of Korea
so even if you have a good restaurant in Seoul
it is nothing like the food here in 전라
I have no idea what to expect M: Yeah
S: We've only been recommended that we come here
so we drove for four hours to test it
NANANANANAAAA
[music]
M: If you look at the menu you might notice the prices seem a little bit steep
compared to most places in Korea
when we talk about 3-5 dollar dishes
That's because this is hanjeonshik
and that means when you're ordering something for 15 bucks
you're not just getting a hamburger or something
you're getting a dish in the centre
and then you're getting tonnes of side dishes
and these are really well prepared and super delicious traditional style side dishes
[music]
S: The lady just just brought a tray here
and I can smell all the food that she just left
and I want to eat it but I'm not sure if it's mine or not
or if she's just trying to torture me
M: Simon... ¬.¬
S: Got nothing!
M: Can't take him anywhere
[music]
S: This restaurant literally gives you so much food
that it doesn't fit on the table
we have to put it on the ground around you
M: We put on the ground, but very gently of course
S: I have no idea how we can eat this much food
M: Don't worry, I got this
I got this
[music]
M: It's like an acorn/chesnut jelly
with a little bit of hot sauce on top
S: It's really stiff
M: #ThatsWhatSheSaid ohooooh
[music]
M: okay, I've never seen this before
This is sesame leaf (normal)
and then there's like the bean sprouts
that you grow, like pea sprouts or whatever kind of sprouts
and you're supposed to eat it in one shot
Simon
M: HahhHh that was like the most monkey-like eating I've ever seen
S: that was delicious M: Is it?
M: I'm going to have one
S: Rice at the bottom
Mmmm~ Hidden taste
[music]
S: This is korean to-may-toh
M: You can only find these in certain provinces in Korea
you definitely can't get them outside of Korea
It's very unique to Korea
S: It's actually vinegar-ed M: Oh is it?
M:It's been boiled and peeled
awesome
[music]
M: Look at this huge piece of eggpplant
this is all eggplant, can you see that?
should I just bite into this or should I like..?
S: Just eat it
S: I've never had Korean food like this before ever
M: ohmagad, haaano no one's going to like that
M: Isn't that awesome?!
S: That's like sesame oil? M: Yeah
Sesame oil and hot sauce
[music]
S: Soozee on her side of the table
has the marinated crab
that every time i ask her for a piece
she won't give me any
M: She's hoarding it all
S: but now I'm confessing on camera
she's going to have to give me some
S: I don't actually know how to eat this
Okay so I swirl it around
then i scoop it up with a spoon or with a chopstick?
S: and do i just suck it down or with a spoon?
what's the proper way?
S: Oh that's great oh yeah - do you have any more of them?
can you put the rest of them in my bowl here
M: AND NOW for some sexy food porn shots
[music]
M: okay guys, there is so much food here
i don't even know how to tackle it all
some of it I've had before
but all of it has a different kind of flavour to it
I don't know if it's because we're near the farms
and it just tastes fresher or what
Now i know a lot of you guys are probably like you don't know what this tastes like
so i would say the general breakdown is some dishes are spicy
S: *choked voice* have some of that
M: Perhaps! As we see from Simon
S: Eat it
all of it
M: Why? Is it really spicy?
S: No, it's so good
M: some things taste like they're fermented sadness
S: That was some pickled pain right there, woah
M: NO, I ALREADY HAD ONE OKAY
S: Soozee, did you have one yet?
S: Leeeeeeeeeeeiiiigh
here you go
M: We're not even going to make you name a kpop star for that one
it taste like a sad olive S: All three
M: yep S: Woaaah
M: we got some side-turning
I will re-enact Leight, ready?
[when one hears sad news]
M: I think it tastes like a really sad olive
like an olive that wants to be an olive
but grows up and didn't quite make it
M: so besides pickled sadness
there's also a lot of spicy flavours
but it's kind of like a spicy-vinegar combination
so we've also got straight up salty
like the fish is kind of like a salty, buttery fish
we have a wasabi-mustard flavour happening here
S: the beef is quite sweet
M: the beef has a sweeter taste to it
and some of the items have an earthy flavour
especially the bamboo rice
because it's got beans in it
and is steamed inside of this, it kinda has that nutty,beany kind of flavour to it
It's like a party of my taste buds and everyone's invited! {count me in}
S: This food isn't from jeollanamdo, it's from jeolla-DAMN yoo
S: Clever {indeed}
S: So that's it for this weeks F.A.P.F.A.P
M: I'm so stuffed, but I don't feel heavy-stuffed
it's like we had so many little vegetable dishes
S: this was all fresh and delicious M :yeah
S: I don't feel greasy or heavy whatsoever
M: I would say my favourite dish was definitely the eggplant dish
and the little, tiny green onion dish which you don't think you're going to be like
"I really like the onion with onion dish"
but it had a mustardy-wasabiness that was just like oooo so fresh
S: I loved everything except for the plum
M: Oh yeah S: Woah
No to plum, everything else = YES
M: Seen some thangs, ate some thangs..
S: Altogether this meal cost between 15-17 dollars a person
I would have paid double that and still would have felt totally okay with it
M: the ahjummas are like WUUUUT, they would have come back
why do they sound like Spudgy? {lol}
S: ladies, you can totally double your revenue you here - this is worth it
M: guys if you're somehow in this province area
you gotta drop by
M: now to roll myself to the car
[Martina awkwardly shuffles away]
[Simon does.. god knows what]
M: you're too big for this Simon
aand he's down
M: Sh shh you're a really good boy
I'm gonna brush you down
I'm going to feed you some apples
got some sour sauce from the trip
S: scratch under the ear
