/ fungbroscomedy
they left out the super basic items like kao piek, kapoon, gang nor mai, im a Lao TH-camr and i've been trying to contact FungBrosComedy for about a year and still no response... HMU if you want do another episode and have more detail about the food and culture... cuz this girl is a little off..
BGZTV truuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu
I'm Laos and I agree with u that they left out basic items. The first time my mom showed me the Lao mom ordering pizza video. I've been watching ur videos ever since. I love ur Papaya Salad parody! Me and my Lao friends love ur videos because it's so relatable. Also all my friends think I'm Thai but I always tell them that I'm Laos. I love that there're more Lao people out there and I'm not the only one! Love ur videos!
yes omg kao piek is the best! they really shouldve tried it
or jolk
BGZTV i agree
If Lao people keep using the word "Thai" for their restaurants because "people aren't used to it" then the problem is just going to stay that way. People will never learn who we Lao people are if we don't speak up. Why not make the change to inform them about our culture?
Couldn’t have said it better myself
I can use some help you know hmmmmmm its kinda akward my great grandfathers were FAA NGUM AND SAMSENTHAI The 1st or 100th =( =( =( SIGHS ♡

I'm Lao! :D Shoutout to my Laotian Nation!
AYyy Laotian right over here!
Ayyyyyy
Ayyyyy
Ayyyyyyyy we're all in this together :D
Me too
I'm Laotian too but I had to laugh when fung bros pronounced it correctly and she corrected them and said it incorrectly. Not hating BUT I think +BGZTV would have made a better appearance❤️
Thanks for the support!! Ive been trying to hit them up for over a year!! Hopefully this video will show them that the community has my back!!
@@meganrogers48 thank you. Once my husband's ex boss called me a laotian and I said Lao.. she then said I need to understand that Laos is a country not a race lol. I said lao and not laos..smh.. then she told me I need to understand that I'm laotian and that she knows more about buddhism than me.. piss me tf off!
@@meganrogers48 well said. My father is a teacher from Thailand and laos. Then he joined the military and help fought for America.. so I know my history because I was forced to learned lol. I know more than most lao here where I'm speak and read very fluent. Although I dont have much use for reading some of my friends speak it. Not good but better than what I've seen lately.. like this girl who's in the video.. she's horrible lol
Thai and proud here but I have to say you guys dropped the ball on this one. Could've picked a better person to introduce people to Lao food. Do hit up +BGZTV and do Lao food some justice man.
Also, I got to get these off my chest;
1) Our languages are different, but is mutually intelligible to a certain degree. Whenever I go to their side of the bridge I'm quite able to survive as our languages are mutually intelligible. They're able to speak to me in Lao and if they tone it down a bit by going slower, I'm able to understand what they say and most of the time when I reply in Thai, they will understand likewise.
2) Saying Thai is more formal and Lao is more informal is WRONG. I speak standard Thai and when I want to, I can make a sailor blush. Adding "krub" at the end of the sentence doesn't make it polite (eg. พ่อมึงตายครับ sounds totally ridiculous), and Laotians can be very polite in their speech if they want. Both our languages have in common that we have 2 registers; formal speech pattern, and informal speech pattern. For example; สวัสดีครับ วันนี้คุณสบายดีไหมครับ is very formal, while หวัดดี มึงเป็นไงบ้าง is extremely rude and should only be used between closest of friends and never to elders. One of the difficulty with learning Thai is you have to learn 4 sets of word for you and I (คุณ เธอ แก มึง and ผม/ดิฉัน ข้า กู) and using the correct one in the appropriate situation (speaking to a friend, an elder, boss, elders, customers, kids, etc).
3) Like I said above; our languages are mutually intelligible, and we can also say kob jai ขอบใจ but it's only for people of equal or lower status; i.e. your friends or people that are younger than you, and it's considered rude most of the time.
4) Thailand =/= Laos. Look at it this way; we're brother countries, and ethnically we're the same. We got more Laotians on our side (called Esaan) than in Laos. Most of our customs are basically the same, we have the same religion (theravada buddhism), we pretty much eat the same food. In the end, we're both Tai (the ethnicity, from southern china, not Thai like Thailand).
5) What's this crap about not having last names? Unless you're from some isolated hill-tribe deep in the jungle or high up in the mountains, you'll most likely have a last name. Lao people tend to have long last names rivaling the Thai-Chinese's last names. Majorities of Thais tend to have shorter last names.
6) at 0:37, that Buddhist blessing sign is in Thai. Just something I noticed, as our countries does NOT share the same alphabet. It's like walking into a Korean shop with a sign in Japanese. Just found that a bit odd.
I really want to rip off my ears when I hear Sulina butcher Lao words.. it's like calling Arkansas, "R- Kansas".
***** yeah, a shame that the Fung bros dropped the ball on this one.
Glad someone else is speaking up about the misrepresentation even if it was unintentional.
Its not your video though so fuck up
So glad Lao people finally got the spotlight for once ☺️
Angie Thammadosa. UH, Hell yeah!
Omfg just yass! Us lao dnt get special treatment like any others
So true! Everyone's always confused what "Laos" is.

Hi Fung Bros.Thank u so much for this great video of Lao food. As a Lao American I wanted to correct what the young lady say how different we are from Thai people. ("Its not that we dont speak as formal.") We share the same tradition. We are alike actually. There are so many Lao ethnicity and different regions in Laos. WE ARE THE SAME, JUST SPEAK DIFFERNT DIALECTS. Yes, our food is similar to Thai Isan. In fact Thai isan once had 16 provinces in their country. And most of the people are Lao. I dont want to get to political but I just want to address the correct answer to your question. Most of our Lao dishes are salad, soups, grilled meats using lots of herbs, stews, stem vegetables, and sauce of different flavors. And most of all, its not the padek is what you will know us for. We worship our sticky rice. Without our rice, our food will not taste right! To most Americans its bread and potatoes. For Lao people its all about OUR STICKY RICE. For all the Lao American that does not know about our cultural please feel free to READ ABOUT LAOS and understand your roots. Thank you for your time. YOUR THE BEST FUNG BROS
JACKIE LAOKitchen Here's what the Lao Community had to say about the Horrible
misrepresentation in the video... great exposure for the
culture... very wrong guests..... @2015
Aww. Thats horrible..you need to team up with Fung bros and do another video with them.
JACKIE LAOKitchen if they respond
JACKIE LAOKitchen you can find the article on my FB fanpage
Well if they dont..U can always make your own♡
Never heard of a Lao person without a last name. Tf was dude talking bout?. Just know Lao last names are really long lol.
Right my last name is hella long
I'm offended
Fung bro this was a horrible video. You guys disappoint me. #BGZTV is more Lao then those two people. Please fung bro remake this video.
I'm lao and it makes me so happy to see Laos being represented!
Yeah true
Check out my lao comedy channel
BGZTV I have actually, a while ago! at parties my family talk about your videos because they find them on facebook!
Haha thats awesome! Ive been trying to contact these guys to shoot this episode and really show them what its about, this video wasnt bad but i wouldve had so many more answers for them...
Tell the fung bros they need to shoot a video with me!! To get real info about lao people..
the long awaited. My country finally gets credit and noticesd
I know I'm lao too and we don't get any recanization
I waited a long time too
im half lao I showed my grandfather he was like finally
Sameee
I lived in Honolulu for 3 years. During that time, I had green papaya salad made by a Laotian young lady. It was delicious. It made me love the Laos cuisine.
Anyone else notice how she pronounces certain things like so Americanized 😂👌🏽
I'm Thai and Lao. Where the half and halfs at!??
KV Shinto YT2 b
Attempt 試み me to
Attempt 試み SAME I'm half lao and Thai
im laos and thai toooooooooooo
Attempt 試み im the thai but have lil lao in me cheers
I'm Lao and must give some obvious criticisms for this video.
1. There are many Strictly Lao restaurants they could've visited in the region.
2. Not to be disrespectful to the fellow Lao-Americans in the video, but the pronunciation of words and names of those dishes are completely different from what I've learned. And I am very fluent.
3. The history lesson is incorrect. Lao people do have last names. His example does not speak for all Lao-Americans.
4. Not all Lao-Americans are Buddhist.
5. Their explanation of the Lao-American profile is completely inaccurate. We are NOT a dying species. I find this very insulting, especially for those who have worked so hard for our community. Perhaps this may be a narrow minded view from a specific circle of friends.
Fung Bros, ya'll should've done your research more before producing this. Check out Lao-Americans on the east coast. Check out Laos in the House. Heck, come to the D.C. area and I am sure members of CLAY (Connecting Lao American Youth) would love to show you authentic, strictly Lao restaurants, and would love to give you a great discussion reflecting on the Lao-American community and all the great work that has been put into advancing our Lao-American profile. Again, we are NOT a dying species.
Thanks for trying out Lao Food, but please know that your videos are more than just videos for fans. Fung Bros, you are very influential with social media in the Asian American diaspora, so in my opinion, you have a bit more of a responsibility to check up your sources and produce videos that reflect Lao food and Lao Americans more accurately.
Jeson Souvannarath nah bro you just chose to get offended for no reason. If you’ve ever been to different regions of Thailand and Laos, you hear drastic changes in how things are pronounced. The Laotian girl says it how I grew up saying it. Northern Thai/southern Lao accent.
brendenxayavongsa yeah same
Even though I'm Thai, I can tell that her pronunciation of loa words are bad XDD
True. She has a very thick American accent
I think she's not full lao or something.
I've never heard it pronounced Lao-ocean before only Lay-ocean. If the girl was really Lao she would say it correctly. And to all the people saying you're Laos, I didn't know you were the country... I think they should've done this video with a real Laotian like BGZTV he would've did a better job than her.
Linda S lol thanks for the support! if you go on my FB fanpage she acutally comments calling all of us stupid cuz we pronounce it lay-ocean and shes says we're all dumb... called us all haters...
La-o, not Lay-o, is how Lao people pronounce their own names. It would make more sense to say La-o-tian rather than Lay-o-tian. BUT, when speaking to people who disagree, or call Lao people "Laos people", I just tell them to make it easy and just say Lao - it seems more proper and true to the language.
SMH basic knowledge bro vsld4 When two vowels are next to each other, the first vowel is usually long (the sound is the same as the sound of the letter) and the second vowel is silent. Examples: meat, seat, plain, rain, goat, road, lie, pie
BGZTV It's an "Americanized"
vsld4 smh im not even gonna reply.. great job *thumbs up
I'm Lao eeehh
Ehhhhhh
Ehhhh
Same here😫😇
Sandi Vongthavady check out my lao comedy channel
Same 👌
I want a Lao restaurant in London😋😋. Forget Chinese food Lao food is where it's at
Where's all my fellow Laotian's at?
Me 🙋🏻 Laotians unite!
OVER HERE
Ayyyyyy
Right here!
Yoooo!~ XD
please do more research on the differences between lao language and thai language. its incorrect to say that the lao language is less formal considering many languages have various vernaculars.
Saymoukda Vongsay if you go on my FB fanpage she acutally comments calling all of us
stupid cuz we pronounce it lay-ocean and shes says we're all dumb and its pronounced lao-ocean...
called us all haters...
BGZTV calling you all "haters" is kind of harsh. was she joking?
Did u read the post on my FB fanpage? I think it was more of mocking like we're dumb and i dont know what im talkig about...
BGZTV where is this post your speak of? I've been trying to find it. My friend and I were just reflecting on how this girl misrepresented being Lao and everything Lao.
Manysavanh damn wth the post is gone... msg me on my fan page and ill send you the links to the article and what she posted
*how to get subs*
make a 9 sec video kicking random objects
Best channel on youtube kickin' i love your vids :D
That is bullshit. I'm Lao I'm pretty sure I have a fucking last name
+PetrosB4 I'm from Boston dude, I wouldn't know about all of that haha
+PetrosB4 Laos is pretty authoritarian and they have I believe a Marxist-communist/socialist government
BUT think of it as a somewhat extremely water downed version of North Korea and China
the strict bad kind is more like North Korea
As I Lao person myself. I love me some khao piak
BodyPillowManufacturing which one 2 different kinds
FrontLin3 Yonex huh, I didn't know there was two versions of it... But my mother makes it with chicken. So I guess I like that one.
I love khao piak! I wish they had included that in this video. Also khao poon!
BodyPillowManufacturing me to
You guys haven't seen anything till you've seen Laos New Years. :)
I didn't see any original Laos dishes. 'Laos Tom Yum'?? 'Laos pho'??? What the hell is that ? @@
@@meganrogers48 thank u. I was wondering what happened to kapoon
No such thing as lao pho. It's just pho..from Vietnam. These people are claiming other race food now.. Tom yum us thai food..smh..
Dont see any lao dishes? Maybe you are just thai.
The moment the girl couldn't describe where Laos was situated, I knew she would be a bad reference. I'm not going to repeat everyone's comment, but since no one mentioned this one: we don't pray every night.
I'm lao and i have a long ass last name
Same I have a long 15 letter one I don't know why most Lao people have long lastnames
a long ass name and a stunning beauty =)
Every long Lao Last Name has a meaning. They are a combination of 2-3 words sometimes 4. That meaning would be a description of the family. Such as Khammanivong. Kham=Gold, Mani would be the name I believe. , Vong= Circle. "Gold of the Mani Circle." circle here would probably indicate family. All comes down to interpretation.
thai and laos dont have last name that is westernization.
they have name and title for high class people.
low class people just have name and they put place or village after his name.
Jackie Khammanivong me to, why do we have to have a long ass name
I'm half Lao and half Viet. Thank you! Finally a Lao food video. I've been waiting for this to eventually come out. Everything looked really great and appetizing. Not many people know about the Lao culture, so this video means a lot.
Man I eat Larb like every week. I hate it with normal rice so sticky rice is a must.(I grew up with lao people)
from all fung bros food this video i considered the most inaccurate video and most of people here think that the lady has less knowledge about it(for that she is American-Lao i understand that) pls considering making a new video
Smh! The Fung bros actually pronounced it correctly "lay-ocean" and she pronounced it incorrectly, they could have at least found another Laotian person that would not butcher our language when speaking Lao. As a Laotian American that has spoken Lao as my first language and my entire life, I could not help but cringe at her accent when speaking Lao.
I applaud the Fung Bros for shedding light on our dying nationality. Thank you!
Her pronunciation is so americanized lol
Ammitious IKKKKK!
I'm Laotian, and I cringed every single time you tried to pronounce words lol
The Isaan people of Thailand are basically Lao. They use Lao language, they eat Lao food and share the same traditions with Lao. The main thing is, the Thai government started the "Thaification" of the country in 1933 in order to assimilate the different minority (Isaan Lao, Isaan Khmer, Mon, Karen, Southern Malay etc..) into the society. Thai became the language of education and administration.
Now you can see this in Thailand. When I go to Udon Thani (a province 50km away from the Laotian border), people speak Lao. At school, the kids learn Thai and in Thai, even if they don't use it at home
I'm Mienh but we cook alot of Lao food. Beef Larb and Papaya Salad are my favorite.
AYEE SAME HERE
Looks like there are a only few Mienh fellows who watch Fung Bros!
Claymore007 Mienh rep! Homemade papaya salad is my favorite though, and nam wan right after.
+Claymore007 That's no surprise because for some reason not a lot of people, including Mien/Mienh people, realize that the Lao population includes the Hmong, Mien, and Khmu. That is, the Hmong, Mien, and Khmu are also "Lao", which is why all Lao groups, including the Hmong, Mien, and Khmu, share the Lao national cuisine, which includes larb and papaya salad. It's like in China where there are separate tribes including the Cantonese, Hokkien, and Fujian who have their own local languages and tribal names, but they're all still collectively "Chinese" and many know how to speak the Chinese national language called Mandarin or simply "Chinese".
In the case of Laos, the Hmong, Mien, and Khmu also have their own local languages and tribal names, but they're all still collectively "Lao" and many know how to speak the Lao national language, which may be called "Lao Vieng" or simply "Lao".
However, not every Chinese person (i.e. Cantonese, Hokkien, or Fujian) can speak "Mandarin" just like not every Lao person (i.e. Hmong, Mien, or Khmu) can speak "Lao Vieng". But, they're still "Chinese" or "Lao", respectively, even though they may not know how to speak the national language.
Actually our Mienh origins came from China. Because there are still Mienh tribes living in China which they speak a different dialect of Mienh. In that case i do not consider myself Lao at all. Many Mienh elders from Laos do not speak or understand Lao. They either know Mienh or Mandarin. Since the Mienh religion (Animism-Daoism mix) uses a Chinese script for their chants.
Dude should add Lao to the sign. Thai might be familiar and bring in the crowds.. but I'd trip my husband to get at some Lao food, just to try it. Every body else has done it.. Korean is now super popular.. same with Vietnamese. Lao needs its turn. Hey.. Cambodia.. get in there too.
งงอาหารลาวตรงไหนว่ะ ใครอธิบายได้บอกหน่อย
All Laos people are eating sweet rice or sticky rice no matters what is it your country from you are Khou Lao der
Yay! Finally Lao culture and food is getting more spotlight😊 i am Laotian myself and for some reason this made me really happy😂 but where all ma Lao people at!?😭😂
-
+itzxari Hi. May I suggest something to you? It's perfectly acceptable and preferred to just stick to one word, "Lao" (more versatile usage) without having to switch back and forth between "Laotian" (more limited usage).
The word, "Laotian", much like "Thailandese", is unnecessary in everyday speech since "Lao"/"Thai" exists as a word.
So, "Finally Lao culture...I am Lao myself...where are all of my Lao people?"
+k-popcorn The most funny thing is they use Thai alphabets all over their restaurant. (e.g. 0:37) LOL even they use word "Thai" as part of restaurant's name. LMAO
Why don't they advertise themselves as Laos. LOL
hahah right XD
Did they say Kung Lao at the end? MORTAL KOMBAT IM COMING LOL
Sherman PlaysMC Kon Lao = Lao People
traditional Laos food ingredients have not coconuts milk
ekkapongman agree
We are so rare!!!
No but I just like drawing em
I make funny lao vids
***** Wow thanks
Her pronunciations in Lao, were different from what I learned.. hmmm.. maybe she's from Northern Lao, my family is from Southern Laos🇱🇦
ItsUnicornAni I consider her dialect as the Falang dialect.
No, way. Her pronunciation is definitely NOT northern Lao intonation. She is what I call "White valley girl" Lao accent. LOL. Northern Lao accent is more softly spoken/ little slower, while Vieng accent has a sharper clearer tone and Southern Lao and Issan is very nasally more tonal, sound very much more (Khmeric/Viet). This isn't a surprise though cause a lot of overseas Lao people are from the South and have more Khamen and Viet ancestry (even though a lot chose to ignore historical ancestry).
She probably grew up in America and has a very thick American accent when she speaks Lao
She just cant speak laotian that well
The most funny thing is they use Thai alphabets all over their restaurant. (e.g. 0:37) LOL even they use word "Thai" as part of restaurant's name. LMAO
Why don't they advertise themselves as Laos. LOL
I strongly believe it is actually Thai restaurant that serves Thai food mostly and some Lao food, not 100% though.
I'm Cambodian, my best friend is Laos! I love how you guys are bringing our foods into the main stream. Not a lot of people know bout us or our cultures! It's awesome! Thank you!
I understand why people get confused between whether this is Thai or Laotian. It's like going to an Indian restaurant for Pakistani food. It gets the basic idea of the food. But the real reason why I'm commenting -- She called those pork sausages something "gai"... I thought Gai meant chicken in Thai.
Oh lord, that girl is white.. or is it some east coast thing where you call lao people oceans?
The mistake and confusion to begin with is going to a Thai restaurant to represent Laos. The huge confusion starts right off the bat in the video. Im sure those are Lao people that own that restaurant, but common. Theres nothing wrong with being U.S. born but at least have some real knowledge or do some real research of the country you supposed to represent. But it couldnt be helped cause the way youtube works is you get someone who is a popular social media personality to rep their own culture. So I understand along the line of that aspect of it. Its TH-cam of course. But First off with the language itself how she stated Thai is formal and Lao isnt. , Thats based off her perception and what she know. The Lao language has many dialect itself. From Tai Vien (dialect of the capitol), Tai Neua (far), Tai thai (close), Tai Sahvahn, Tai Paksei, and many more, some are very proper while others arent so formal. As for Lao people not having last names? Where did that guy get his information from. That is so far from the truth. Majority of Lao people all have a last name (family name). The only reason a family here in the U.S. wouldn't have one is they have no history to their roots in Laos (such as being sold to a family, being an orphan, etc), or the name has communist ties/ or the family here could be hiding from communist Laos (which means if they ever want to visit Laos, they would need to go by a different family name). Dont just make stuff up such as "Lao people don't have last names" just wow... such a misrepresentation of our culture all together. And the food of choice was so typical that it was close to what Thai food is. Doesnt even show the true diversity of what Lao food is. Where's the Gang Naw Mai (bamboo shoot strew), Gang Kee Lek & Hoy (Authentic Lao strew w/ snails), Gang Kai Mote Dang (red ant eggs strew), Tom seen Nua (beef soup), Kao poon and so much more. Also Pho isnt a laos dish, we got that from Vietnam and she just said we add shrimp paste. LOL Home style Laos Pho is made with Oxtail. Sure we have it at Lao restaurants but Lao Pho isnt a highlight of any Lao restaurant I'll tell you that. I respect and like that you guys were trying to help represent Lao food and its culture, but most definitely, this isnt it. At most, probably teenage Lao kids could relate to this video and believe this is what Lao food is. Sorry guys.
I know!!! No last name 😂😂😂 really!
Thank you 😂 what website did they get that from!?
Noctis Yes, Lao food have similar food as Thai/Vietnam but have different name and different ways of cooking. Those desserts aren't even Lao, most Lao desserts have their own variations/names even if they look similar to Thai. Lao desserts are generally made with the combination of tropical fruits and glutinous rice products. The common ones are wrapped in banana leaves, steamed, or dessert soup.
Honestly I'm a "teenage Lao Kid" and I agree with your statement 100%. I was really disappointed by their choice of food and the misrepresentation of our culture. But I'm also saddened that you generalized the younger Laotian generation as well. We all don't disregard our culture. I'm 19 and was born and raised with a very much Laotian family. Every dish you have named I used to see almost every day and night in the kitchen being made by my aunt and grandmother while my mom was working the night shift to be able to provide for me. this comment may be 2 years late but I also thought that I should speak up and let you know that not every Laotian teenager disrespects and disregards their roots. It depends on how they were raised and how much they really are proud of where their roots are.
Padaek that thang up! Yall finally did Lao food. Awesome. I've been seeing people ask for it in the comments. I know of Lao people because, well I'm pretty cultured.😌 And because I watched King of the Hill! Hahaha. ❤ to Lao.
This guy Richie needs to put away his Viet nationalism attitude. I don't find nothing to be proud of being Viet if I was him.
+Tee Touch WTF
Lao people look racially ambiguous. I'm Lao and it's awesome!
okay, richie with the pipes in the intro. I SEE YOU, I SEE YOU
Yo FungBros you guys should collab with BGZtv, he'll show you guys some real Laotian food
Tahnks for the support!! Been tryna shoot this video with them for over a year but they never responded!! Keep commenting!!!? Thanks for the love !!
Great job FungBro! You guys are funny, cool, and educated. i couldn't say the same about the people you chose to represent Lao culture and food, should have chosen a Lao TH-camr like BGZTV
Many restaurants are operated by Lao but called it Thai food. I’m proud to call mine Lao food. I have a Lao fast food in California. We only serve sticky rice with fried chicken, pork jerky & sausage; 99% of my customers preferred Lao style papayas. Most of the customers are not Lao. So many never heard of Lao food until they came to my restaurant & love it!! They kept coming back with more friends & family🥰
I’m from California, what is the name of your restaurant, I want to come try your food.
thumbs up from the Laotian girl!!!
I agree 100% with Sulina, it's pronounced Lao-Shen, not Lay-O-cean; I'm not hating I'm just saying. BTW thanks for covering Lao food on your channel. You guys are the shiznit!!
Try some Cambodian food!
They already have!!!
Have you had Cambodian food? Its damn good, bro.
They already did Cambodian food
***** There are subtle differences but Thai/Lao/Cambodian have certain dishes that are closely related (they are are good).
Mike Smith Not really Laotian food similar to North East food.Thai food is between Chinese and Indian food.Thai eat more spicy than Lao and Cambodian.
Look I was born and raise in Laotian culture and to me she look like she's born and raised in Malibu.. if you can't speak your own language correctly... then it's no surprise u would show up at a Thai resturant... No Thai restaurant would serve Laos food and when they do...Their flavor is always sweeter and way off... F.O.E. Family Over Everything
the most famous Laotians have to be Khan and Connie from King of the Hill
What ocean?
didn't they have chinese voice actors for those roles? I googled it because their pronunciation to me sounded off when I heard them speak lao
oh really ? This is lao food ? If you think this is lao food so you should be to change restaurant's name "HOY KHA LAO NOODLI" NOT "HOY KHA THAI NOODLI" hehehe hahaha
That is basically thai food and with that I mean northeastern food from TH
Nope not even close, looks the same but its cooked with the heart and soul of Lao people. ✌
No this is like vietnamese food. But a little bit different
psychoproLP If you talking about Chiang Mai from what I hear That used to be part of Laos before Thailand took it. Thats why the food and language are blended with the Lao side.
psychoproLP Well people in North East Thailand are ETHNICALLY Lao, so yes the food is the same.
+psychoproLP Actually, it's more correct to say northeastern food from Thailand is (basically) Lao food.
Lao food of Thailand vs. Lao food of Laos
That's really what people should be saying.
thank you guys for sharing your vdo. David, Richie, Sulina and Steven, you guys are great! Keep it coming :) FYI to some :) Fer - in Lao, Pho - in Vietnamese, Kuay Tiew - in Thai, Koi/Koy - in Lao, Larb - in Thai. Lao is spelled Lao until the French colonized the country and put the letter "s" at the end. The people is Lao. Not Laos or Laosian. Lao is sandwiched between Thailand and Vietnam. Top are China and Myanmar (aka: Burma) and bottom is Cambodia. And you are absolutely correct that most Thai foods stemmed from Laos. Even 80% to 90% of Thais speak Lao E-san (aka: Lao) I am proud to be Lao, Chinese, English!
very similar to khmer food lol
Lao people do in fact HAVE last names. Everyone in Laos has one. All the Lao people in America currently had last names before getting here. They had them since they lived in Laos. Just a fact.

Lol "what makes you proud to be Lao?" "We're a dying species 😀." True but not as bad as Thai Dam, we don't even got a country anymore so we had to move to Lao to avoid getting killed 😀😀.
I'm Thai and, from my point of view, this clip is one thing that make me realize Southeast Asia countries have many shared cultures.
Because all those foods can find in Thailand too, especially in the Northeast.
I've tasted Lao Food long time ago, so I will not talking about the taste but the dishes in this vid and what we have here look exactly the same. (Even their names aren't different)
However, I wouldn't say it's only Thai Food, like I've just said, we share.
I mean, yeah, it's Lao Food, but I just want to share you that those kinds of food are Thai Food too :)
Well this opened up my eyes about differnt Lao people from differnt states in the US. He said you make up a last name i dont beleive that unless you didnt have a last name or didnt know it at all, in Goergia generally Riverdale, Forest Park, College Park GA (Metro Atlanta) theres a big population of Laotians. We are the asians typically known as having the long last name, for instants mines is Thapvongsa, my dads is Sripasert, theres no laotian i know that doesnt have a long last name. Such as Thammvongsa, Souksavath, Phoumavong. I guess West Coast Laotions arent the same as us Southside Laotians.
อาหารไทยชัดๆ มาบอกว่าอาหารลาว
บางอย่างคล้ายๆกันครับ ไทยลาว
จ้า -..-
aiia baba อยากรู้ว่าลาวทำกะปิยังไง เพราะลาวไม่มีทะเล
Thanarat Sakunchit ส่วนหลายเอามาจากเวียดนาม

“how come in america most ppl don’t know anything about laos?” cuz u call ur restaurant thai…. ur not helping the cause lmfao. how can americans know about laos if u don’t even know where it is on the map yourself, “right above vietnam.”
Oliang / Rum Mit / Sai Kok is Thai word.
Papaya Salad / Larb / Kaprao Fried Rice is Original Thai food.
Padaek Original from Cambodia
No Lao Food in this VDO!!!!!
Shiho Minami Actually No Laos in this world...lolz
Shiho Minami Papaya salad and larb originate from Laos, not Thailand. c:
+Joy Muneath Sai kok also.This food is originated from Laos,not from Thailand.
+Shiho Minami I'm afraid you are incorrect. Thai people originated from Lao people. The things you consider as Thai food are actually original Lao food. We still eat them in Laos even though many Thai people know how to cook Lao food, but decided to promote them as Thai food to try to give themselves credibility apart from Laos.
+Nattapol Phorueng You must be uneducated, so please buy yourself a world map. Laos was voted by Western foreigners and won the award for World Best Tourist Destination, so perhaps you should ask yourself if there is a Thailand in this world considering that it lost the award to Laos? Or better yet, what world does Thailand exist in since the world that we all live in has Laos winning the World Best Tourist Destination Award. :)
Please, you guys, please, I beg you, next time, do not use chopstick with Thai or Lao food. It's not the way we eat our food, except eating noodle, for sure.
I think green curry is Thai food, Isn't it?
ใช่แล้วครับคนลาวในประเทศลาวไม่นิยมกินแกงเขียวหวานหรอกครับ
@ภูวมินทร์ วงศ์เมาะ Green curry is Gang Phed and it doesn't go well with sticky rice thus the reason why it's not a popular dish in Laos since Laotians consume sticky rice daily. Green curry/ Kang Phed is best served with steam rice.
Girl no, homegirl is triggering me right now. My grandparents are both ethnically Thai/Laos. Growing up in was able to speak both languages and understand one another. Both languages can be formal, saying one is more formal than the other is kinda downing the other one. Traditions are almost exactly the same, just history has made both ethnicities separated by two different countries. I lived and worked in Laos for 4 months and visited my family in Thailand numerous times..and let me tell you , the language can be formal depending on how you speak. A lot of lao people believe or not can pick up Thai easily than Thai learning Lao.
Pho is not Laos food too, that's came with migration from Vietnam. //
because there are a lot of Vietnamese lives in Laos and lao ppl eat this food too
No Lao Food in this video!!! They just try to distortion of reality because most Americans are unfamiliar with Laotian food, Lao entrepreneurs have aimed to acquire more business by advertising themselves as Thai restaurants that why they don't call their business Laotian Food.
Who the hell says "Lao-ocean"?
Terry Rajsombath lol foreal
+Terry Rajsombath That's why we suggest using "Lao" since it only has one pronunciation and is a more universal term than "Laotian", which has multiple pronunciations.
The word, "Lao" exists in English, Lao, Vietnamese, and Thai = 4 languages
but the word, "Laotian" only exists in English = 1 language
i think the name laotian is more formal and nicer to say to other people whos trying to find out what your name is. calling yourself lao instead of laotian means your good and normal. my two cents..
natonality in stead of name.*
I am
They should've had kaopoon! Cuz I was literally eating it while watching this.. But seriously tho, it's one of those classic Lao food you have to have.
A lot of thai restaurants in US own by Lao peoples. Lao peoples need to stop using Thai name , Take them out now
Try Hmong food...go to St Paul Minneapolis!
Lao and Thai people come from the same group of people called TAI, we were divided politically, hence tbe reason why we have the same last names, we are cousins. Also Thai Isaan are Lao people, and Laotion language is the original and pure language, Thai and Laos are the same language with different dialect and tone
Those are Thai food!!!
Not Laos!!!
It's Lao food
If you are Laotian i hope you know that because they are next to each other so they are almost the same im Laotian to im not offended
those are laotian food getyour fact right .cheers
☝🏻️Thai And Laotian Language And The Food ARE very Similar, Same With New Year and Costumes🤘🏻
Actually, the Lao language can be as formal as Thai, but if it's her opinion then okay. And Lao people do have last names, let's not forget that lol. But they could have chosen another person for this tho, as mentioned by those before me, such as; BGZTV or Anthony Bourdain, etc.. and about the "people arent used to it", people should really start to put Lao instead of Thai if they're going to open a Lao kitchen. Who cares if people aren't used to it, Lao cuisine and the country itself needs to be recognised.
Laos food?? This is thai food 70%.

oneviwatara ขี้โม้มั่วชิบหาย ลาวเอ้ย อย่ามั่วให้มันมาก
Lao food and Thai issan food is the same. they are Laotian people too.
That is totally Lao food because Thai Bangkok people usually don't eat Tham Mak Houng but Thai Isan people do. Thai Isan lean more towards Lao culture than Thai.
@@@MrKle123 เขาพูดความจริงไม่ได้ขี้โม้
oneviwatara was stating the fact not bs as you think.
BGZTV definitely need to do a video with him. This was very much misinterpreted. Where is the real main food of laos? Mainly like kao piek, pho is common, not sure why that was even tried. Also lay-ocean is the correct way to say laotian. Shake my head this video shouldn't have been made. Get the facts straight.. just my opinion, hate all you want.
Hello guys! I believe in this video clip has a lot of confusion about Thai and Lao food. Many items that are claimed as Lao food in this clip are Thai. Since the two countries are next to each other, the food, of course, got influenced. O-liang is definitely a Thai drink. Also, crying tiger is Thai. We also have Tum Pla Daak, called Som Tum Pla Rah, that might got influenced by Lao food. Laab as well. Some items can be claimed as both nation food. Some are slightly different. What I ask for is that the program presenters and director must do more homework in order to present things correctly, and if anything is from both countries, make sure to mention it. Otherwise, you guys are creating a social war.
Please DO MORE HOMEWORK before presenting anything!!!!

Btw, I would like to correct my mistake. O-Laing is not originally from Thailand. It came with Chinese people who immigrated to Thailand long time ago.
Yanawee Sarotnunjeen
but i think som tam is came form thai first because papaya is native south american plant how its came to laos.
Mon Ster Tum mak hoong is a lao dish.Look it up
Papaya is native south America how its come to laos.
Laos dont have sea.
Mon Ster Great,but Thailand isn't in South America either.
I didn't said that Papaya is Lao,I sad Tum mak hoong/som tan is originally from Lao.
First I've ever heard of Lao ppl having no last names. Everybody I know has family names. Never heard of invented names before unless they were really not Laotian at all and were from other countries and using a Lao identity to qualify to come to America while in the camp. Or they were too young and didn't know their family name. Some indigenous Lao didn't use family names but they usually don't identify as Lao. I'm not going to single them out by naming them because not all of them did. Just wanted to clarify that tid bit where they said Lao people don't have last names and got 'invented' ones when they came to America or other countries that accepted Lao refugees.
That's thai food ,Isn't it ?
+Tsukasa January A lot of the food in Thailand originated from Lao food. So it should not be a surprise that Lao food is still eaten in Laos even though many people in Thailand know how to cook Lao food and serve Lao food in their restaurants.
No.. I think this is Thai food because is more like Thai food then Lao food .
Good vdo! BTW, papaya salad is Lao originated. The reason they have Thai version is because real Thai can't handle the hotness of Lao food.
Curry in clip made from Khati (Coconut Milk) that mean all of it is Thai food. It's not Lao food because Lao is a landlock country. It has not Coconut.
Tum ma hoong??????? Waot I'm laos and I call it dum ma hoong XD I'm not joking I'm serious
I felt like you should've invited BGZTV instead, then you would've gotten some correct facts.
I’m Lao they ARE DELICIOUS FOOD I UNDERSTAND THE WORDS YOU GUYS SAID
