🥒 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.

Sonny, I know you won't read this, but I've subscribed because my late wife always watched your channel and she loved it. I would watch on occasion, and I always enjoyed it too. You gave her a lot of good content to watch while she was sick. Thank you for what you do, as you never know how it affects people out in the world. Ami loved watching, so I will continue the tradition.
Sorry for your loss man stay strong

RIP to that one fish ball. Gone but not forgotten.
The floor ate well today boys.
The way he says seasoning! :D Seeeeeeasoning. love you Sonny
I thought I was the only one who noticed the way he pronounced it lol
@@kianahenderson6918 Same lol! I cracked up hearing it. Maybe Sonny had a little too much hard lemonade ;) lmao
i was just about to type the exact same thing
he's imitating uncle roger
Did anybody else notice that Sonny keeps on saying: "seeeaaasonings"😅
definitely a nod to Uncle Roger 😅
Going to state fairs might be the easiest way to complete the $100 challenge ever.
You must have missed the Disney world ones.
Exactly, $1,000 sounds like a real challenge.
Loved the flag behind 🇮🇳, right there at Minnesota❤
Happy to see Yia back! And with his own place too! Congratulations and best of luck Yia!
It was so wonderful to see Yia again. His food looked amazing!😊
His food is nothing special.
😁
Yia is a legend!
I just love Sonny's humor so much...."I'm gonna go on these rides to throw all this up!" LOL
Omfg its amazing to see Yia have a stale in a state fair and get that recognition, I've grown so fond of him after watching him in all the Laos series videos ❤❤❤❤
no such thing as get recogx or for or fx or etc or not, cepuxuax, outx infix any nmw s perfx
How did I miss all that good food this year.?. Next year is the Hmong stand for sure. Also the Norsk'Asian fusian.
Love these vids. Thank you!
You should do a Malaysian food channel, use to work in Manhattan and one of the deli workers was from Malaysia - she would always talking about how great the food and Malaysia was.
I believe that's what he's doing. He has been uploading on his Indian food review channel. He is going to expand in the future.
Have you seen the Malaysian videos?
@@lainet3379this is the main channel. The he has other channel as well.
Nothing like staying up late and regretting the decision to watch food from a food fair 🤤
Still love seeing the glorious food from fair tho ❤
You have found your niche in life. You not only narrate but you present your food videos with humor and presentation. You are very fun to watch. Keep up the great work that you do.
i love his food review so much
Agreed
Agreed!!
wrgg
How do you present with presentation though
Now I'm wondering if we were at the fair on the same day! Hopefully these vendors will be back next year, I wouldn't mind trying some of these 🤤
It's always a highlight of my day watching your content Sonny.
You always make it fun and entertaining, thanks dude.
"This food costs this much money." Just an absolute master at work.
the giant egg roll and Vietnamese iced coffe were my favorite when I went. Definitely can’t wait to go again next year!
They have a restaurant on Grand Avenue in St. Paul. Same giant egg roll and garlic wantons! I’ve had a variety of their entrees and everything has been superb. It’s on the expensive side but worth the splurge. If you’re from the area I HIGHLY recommend 🍻
Every time I hear slipper lobster, it makes me chuckle because I picture someone shuffling around with a pair of fluffy lobsters on their feet🦞🩰😂
The egg roll is very large,the fish balls looked tasty,there’s a lot of great food places to go to eat at the fairgrounds,as you have shown everyone.
I grew up in co where there is walleye but you gotta look for a small few lakes. It is hands down my favorite freshwater fish.
Love your videos. But the way y9u kept saying " seasonings " lol❤❤😂😂
So cool seeing yia again with a stall at the fair
Love you show Sonny thanks for the great content, wish i would travel like this😊
“Seeee-sonings.” 🤣
The Norwegian Lutefisk is actually Klippfisk. Lutefisk is made using caustic soda which gives it a jelly like texture remotely from the Klippfisk texture.
Thanks for saying it! Lol I was just shaking my head like “that ain’t friggin lutefisk my guy”. North Dakota Norwegians represent
Hey Sonny just wanted to say you're show has given my sister something to look forward too she suffers from severe depression and we haven't been able to get her to smile until she started watching your show a year ago..she's watched every episode and is now inspired to create content around our local food in the free State..South Africa THANK YOU FOR BEING YOU🎉❤
Okay
I love these videos! I will hold my breath until the next one, so hurry up Sonny!
They look absolutely delicious!!
Thank you for highlighting Hmong food. As a Hmong person I appreciate it
You make my life better with these videos!
Yia,is so amazing.
Good,to see him again🥰🤤😋!
5.45 there was a India's national flag behind him 🇮🇳❤
11:09 hearing, you need to wash it down? Made me laugh 😂
Respect on the clean nails when zoom into the food.
This looks so much better than the typical fair food of something fried in batter and butter
as a minnesotan, i say that the state fair is like “A burger? PPPFFFFTTTT put it on a stick make it unique”
This is quality content as always, Sonny and team!!
I've already gotten my three tickets for 2024.
It's just since the pandemic that prices jumped so high, maybe around $3 per item.
The Farmer's Union has a very good pork cutlet sandwich. The roast corn is always good. (The corn I had at the Texas fair was terrible. Feed corn?) Danielson's & Daughters Onion Rings are great, but they too have gotten expensive.
It is possible for one person to eat well for under $100. Either way, it is the best and largest state fair in the country and is well worth the trip. Just plan on attending at least two days.
Sonny has better content on his channels than travel channel and food network combined
love love LOVE THIS CHANNEL!!
10:29 Vietnamese egg rolls are my favorite!
Lol Australian Chicko Roll at a state fair when its an every day thing at all service stations in Oz.
Wow, all the cakes are really delicious, thank you for sharing, I give full support to your channel 👍🙏🙏
1:45 damn he called him out fast lol 🤣
Why does he keep saying "Special Seeeasonings" like that !😂😂😂
I don't believe that is actually lutefisk, I think it's just salt cod.
In Australia we call those huge egg rolls are called a chicko roll and can get at most take away shops....
Come too the UK
I'm interested in what we can find here for you too film.
Surely we have some traditional recipes that could wow the audience and pallette.
Damn... those buns Yias family made looks AMAZING!! Love the egg in there
6:05 indian flag in background. Is it a marketing strategy for your new channel Best ever food review India.
If yes, your team is genius.
If no, what is that Indian store, curious 😅
LOVE THE $100 FAIR SERIES
Minnesota people must be in line with the Scottish. Everything in batter!! Everything deep fried!! 😂❤
Actually, it's not all fried or with cheese. The choices have gotten so much better over the last fifteen years.
Now I wanna know what Sonny keeps in his bag 😂
the way sunny says seeeeeasoning is great
It's funny you posted this cause just recently. I've been asking guga to make a dish. Call it a surfing cowdog.
So Maine lobster tail on a stick then wrapped with thin wagyu strips. Then put smoked Gouda between the two meats and then dip that into a nice batter and deep fry it in butter or beef talo. I'd go with the kinda batter they use for Chinese chicken fingers. Then make sure melted compound butter dipping sauce. Mm mmm mm surfing cow dog
Nothing like some BEFRS the day before finals week😂😂😂
This dude really showed a large mouth bass when talking about what the walleye fish is 😂😂😂😂
No one :
Sonny: Seaaaa-soning
Walleye is my favorite fish ever, so now I'm super jealous.
Wonder how they got all the pin bones out? Those guys are a pain to clean, which is the only reason I hesitate to cook them myself at home.
That walleye fish sandwhich looks bussin
Damn that lobster camouflaged in to fried food😂
Who all came here after ranveer's that short video ?? 😂😂😂
Vietnamese food is my favorite food and I've been eating Vietnamese "egg rolls" for decades. I've never been to a restaurant that didn't have them as a side or with the Bee Boong. Granted they are abut half the size of the ones in this video. Weird that Sonny has never seen them in Vietnam. Maybe they are regional?
It’s nice that they add veggie rolls with a side of fish sauce
I was always told lutefisk was "re-hydrated" in lye. Because the name means "lye-fish". My grandma serves it the traditional way every Christmas. Baking it with salt and pepper in foil, and then dipping/drizzling it in melted butter. It has a gelatinous texture and not much flavor. So that bao sounded amazing lol. I've always wanted to try it with a spicy sauce. Because truthfully, it's like tofu. Not much taste (can be very fishy smelling though), odd texture, and it absorbs the sauce you put it in like a sponge.
WOW! Its great to see Yia again!!!!!
Love to see Yia again.
That was not Lutefisk. Lutefisk is made using caustic soda (Lye). The word Lut is Swedish for Lye and the word Lute is norwegian for Lye. It literally translates to Lyefish and gets that name from being made using lye. The exact process I'm not 100% on, but it's soaked in water/lye mixture for days and then you get Lutefisk at the end, I'm sure there are videos on youtube on how it's made if anyone wants to see it.
😂 What's up with "sea-eesonings"? 🤣
Pretty sure real lutefisk is not just dehydrated (that's just salt curing), but straight up rotted and it's kept in a hole.
Shout out to the guy ripping his dab pen when sonny's trying the won't tons
Proud to see Indian Flag at 6:00
Lutefisk bao?! Why does that look delicious-also why am I suddenly craving fermented Norwegian fish pillows smothered in sweet demi-glace? 🤯
I gotta get myself to the Minnesota state fair if it's the last thing I do.
You should go to the Toronto CNE next summer. Lots of unique and delicious foods!
xoxzoe1
YES, it is so Amazing 😋🤤🥰!
@2:50 i started screaming MANAPUA!!!!! god I love Hawai'i
Well that just looks SUPER delicious
Noticed the way Sonny pronounced 'seasoning'. Kinda sing song way, seaaaaaasoning....😂😂😂
gotta love the seeeasoning
Thank you Sonny and the team at the Best Ever Food Review Show for posting this video today! I was just told that I have a non cancerous brain tumor. This video has really brightened my day!
"they like to take risk with their mouth" 😂😂
LOVE your show, you are awesome. One thing I would say for this episode is the picture you showed and called a walleye is actually a bass and not a walleye.
Keep putting out the amazing content!
"Lutfisk" is actually stored in lye or "lut" in Swedish and Norwegian and made of the fish "Ling". What they had in the stall was just salted and dried cod, nothing special about that and NOT Lutfisk!
Didn't ask don't care
That's what I noticed too
C’mon guys you went to the NY state fair over the Big E!!!! You have to do a segment there next year please it’s the largest fair in the North East.
i remeber eating one of those turkey legs back in 1997 at the california state fair my father bought it for me man eating this stuff is amazing good thing we only have it a couple days a year
You should come to the Calgary stampede sometime!
Fellow chunky Minnesota boy here you gotta try the fried green olives there!
That giant spring roll thing looks like a chiko roll.
lutefisk is fish stored in lye, shes talking about tørrfisk, dried fish which is completely different.
Hello 🤗
Thanks for sharing the secret to culinary bliss!❤
'This is an incredible fusion between what Americans like and Asians make', on those 'Vietnamese wontons' was a lowkey genius comment.
Bro how is everyone summer clothes in December in Minnesota? I'm freezing my ass off and I'm in Alabama . Man would I love to go to that fair all that food looks real good.
The minnesota state fair also has pickle pizza.
Lutefisk eh....and waffles in another episode...holy carp - NORWAY IS ON THE MAP people !!!
Love these videos
The fact that we get free videos from Sonny on TH-cam is priceless; keeping the knowledge and entertainment alive! ✌✌✌
Seeing all this food, makes me proud of the Texas State Fair foods…:)
vietnamese coffee is super strong...both the coffee and the amount of sugar they put...i couldn't sit still at work had to walk a few laps...it also made me awake my whole shift...i usually sleep at 3 to 6am..
