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.

You broke the chef with testicles 😂🤣
he looked offended 😆
Interesting that he said the cow has them, not the bull.
Bro he was so proper he was probably kicking him self for laughing at that joke 😂
@@mikemcconeghy4658 English probably isn't his first language tbf
@@mikemcconeghy4658 Its a thing some would call them cow and some beef its an old story if i understand correctly!
1:49 "i didn't like beer when i was 6, but when i was 7 i was really into it " 💀
Relatable
@@nofriendhuh 💀🥶💯
my great grandfather gave me the fruits from his summer drink he soaked over nicht in whine in the fridge for a refreshing drink i think is wasnt suposted to for an 8 year old because the fruit soaked much of the alcohol
@@TheCotzi crazy story dang
@@randomcrusaderdude yeah but thats the old times my great grandmother has putwhiskey with a q-tip on the gums where i was toothing as a baby to calm me down also but i hated alcohol my howl life
Everyone calling Sonny out for the egg/mustard mixup is probably the best part about this whole video. 😂
i literally yelled this out loud lol
Especially when the size of the bite was off the scale…
Sonny, every chef right know is out to get you :D :D :D
he'll never live this down lol.
Watching on tv I grabbed my phone to run to the comments when I heard him say egg yolk
Its not egg yolk in the Wellington, its mustard
Dijon mustard at that!
@@stanley3385 yup
Hah, I paused and came to say this exact thing!
I also wondered why he said yolk lol
English mustard. That was on purpose, so we can comment 😂
"We don't throw food we give to the staff" That is really wholesome to hear nowadays ❤
well not surprising since they talk about a tenderloin
LOL, it's like a reward for a mistake. "Oh, no, I have ruined yet another delicious wellington. Now I have to eat it."
more like "think about your mistake as you eat it"
i would be happy to eat those expensive ingredients
My job been offering a bunch of border line expired food items, some of them if it's this good almost expired then when new it must be fantastic.
Even the 6 month stale Crostini are good. :P
Calling bacon a "palate cleanser" is the funniest thing I've heard in a while 😂🐽
Damn that liver and onions looked fantastic!
im on it
Its my favourite dish and I would be disappointed with the gravy here. In my opinion the gravy should be made in the pan you cook the bacon liver and onion in. It has a special flavour unique to this dish. That just looked like bisto.
yea it did, If it came out looking like that i would try it.
hell nah.. best british food 🤮
Growing up it was great. We used calf liver. It's usually overcooked in restaurants
To add a little to the origin of Sunday Roast, the lower classes would not have had a large fireplace, and so on a Sunday on the way to church, they would drop off a pot at the Bakers to be put in the cooling ovens, given that the bakers didn't bake on a Sunday. On the way back from church they would collect their pots and return home for the family meal.
Nigel seems like such a chill dude haha what a champ :D
My wife is half Scottish and she introduced me to Sunday roast and especially Yorkshire puddings. So easy to make and so delicious. Just simply incredible comfort food.
Lamb isn’t super popular in the US, but I’m so glad my mother’s side of the family is Indian. Nothing can ever beat a lamb curry, aside from a duck curry!
We have Australian and New Zealand lamb in nearly all grocery stores here in the US, but those are both grass fed... We prefer US raised lamb because it's predominantly grain/corn fed which results in a less gamey meat that's more juicy and more closely resembles the aroma of beef when eaten.
I have a close friend from Lebanon, he runs a Mediterranean restaurant, even he admits that grass fed lamb isn't as good when sampled side by side.
Yea wish Lamb was more popular as every time I have had a dish with it was good.
That's ok if you like curry. I don't. I used to like it when I was younger but after living 30 years in a bengali neighborhood I hate it. My home smells like a curry house every time I open the window
@@RichardCranium321 feeding lambs grain is fucking cruel
@@RichardCranium321 so you prefer beef then i guess.
@12:28 That man was internally SCREAMING the answer to that stupid question in his head well before Sonny finished asking it. 😂
Re: liver and onions, my grandparents (born around 1900) ate liver every week. The reason is that it has vitamins they couldn't get elsewhere. It was not like today, where you could grab some B12, niacin, copper, vitamin A etc. at the drugstore. It was normal for folks to eat it once a week, for their health.
I mean that's what I do still. Especially when I was pregnant. I needed the vitamins.
I'm a Brit and I prefer Pigs Liver it is more moist and flavourful to me. I live in Cyprus now and it is FREE! 🤗🤗🤗🤗
Ox liver is even better if you can get it.
Cypriots love pork so there's a lot to go around, specially when they mostly go for the leg/loin!
@@vintage1950 I can but it is expensive here!
Oooo man.. I really miss the charcoal souvlakia.. seftalies.. haloumi..chops..it's been so long 😢😢
@@MrJohnprouzos I am a Kleftico girl, and sad you missing out! 🤗🤗🙏🙏
I love that "defenetly not" 😂
That chef who made the wellington was superb. Great accent too.
Sounded like a french/English accent mix. Loved it
The first time I've ever heard this weird mix between French and... what was it exactly, South London? Cockney? It feels familiar but I'm not overly fluent in British accents. Anyway, it sounded great and properly unique.
Just an FYI, Sonny’s peace sign at the end means f*** you in Ireland and the UK. Also, love how excited he got about the roastie which is almost a weekly thing here 😂
The 'egg yolk' on the beef is actually mustard!
thx i though i was alone catching that
I appreciate the fact that the restaurant doesn't waste food and gives it to the staff. Really good decision!
Nigel seems like such a character great episode!
Every American needs to be introduced to the roastie. Every time we have American friends over from the stats we convert one to the best potato cooked variant. Just so we note you can make a decent roast dinner for around £20 with everything in one variety of meat. London prices are mental.
We used to do pot roast or roast beef
Miss it
The English are the largest ancestral group in the US. We've only been gone 300 years. We know about roasts, bro.
they technically already have them, they just don't think of it as british... the very classic thanksgiving spread of turkey, potatoes, veg, etc... its british but the settlers needed to find things that were not in the north America's, such as turkey instead of chicken.
Braised leg of lamb with a pile of tatos and carrots and all the fixings cannot be beat. The pudding everything. It's just so good.
Adam - the posh roast they had was only £50 for two people. Hardly mental matey
Liver & onions are a match made in heaven
Try adding some apples to it , it's great combo
@@eksinxx132that sounds nice! I need to try!
England Stole that from the Portuguese
Never in my life has someone asked, "So no British food ?" 😅
I'm an Aussie. Liver, onion, bacon is a staple. So good for you but like 'roo it's an acquired taste. Delicious.
Liver and onions is absolutely delicious and a very lean, healthy way of getting plenty of protein and iron into your diet.
And ur must be pushing 90 my moms 60 and won’t eat that dog food
@@kezzyen3407 everyone has a different palate liver is enjoyed all over the world
It will also make your uric acid skyrocket leading to gout
@@73delgado moderation in all things, including moderation. No one should be eating liver and onions every other day, or even every few months. It was usually only eaten once or twice a year depending how often you could afford to slaughter a cow. The organ meats were eaten first because they tended to spoil very quickly and were hard to preserve. The rest of the animal could be smoked, dried, salted or otherwise preserved for several months. It was a luxury to have meat for most people, so every part was used as possible.
@kezzyen3407 My mom is in her 50s and she loves liver and onions… everyone has different preferences. I’ve always wanted to like liver, but it’s always been a swing and a miss to me personally. I wish I did like it because it’s super healthy.
Liver and bacon is so under rated these days seen as boring but so good
You're onto something good, keep it rolling
you a bot. go away please.
The Wellington chef is an absolute Giga Chad 😂, so chill and calm
yep, the black dude though is given off weird vibes, weird fake attitude...
@@vineleak7676 disagree, seemed chill tbh.
It's not a old school food. If you have a culture and you preserve it, you love it. It's all around the world. Spanish Africa, and America. We love liver worth.🎉 I still love it
in AUSTRALIA we use a special type of mushroom in our beef wellington 😇
Amanita muscaria?
And always invite the in-laws over to eat it
Yeah it's fully sick bro 😁
the cordyceps mushroom from "the last of us"
In AUSTRALIA ???
Liver and onions is awesome especially in a decent cafe with bubble and squeak
Yorkshire pudding as, a starter with gravy, with the main meal and then with cooked fruit and custard/ cream
Traditional that the men cooked Sunday dinner
The wellington chef is the most french British person ever 😂 thats the vibe I'm getting
Nigel seems like a super chill and fun chap. Enjoyed seeing him as a guest!
Super chill dude, shout out Nigel love from 🇲🇼🇲🇼
If only all Nigels were that chill!...
Love liver n onions, flour the liver before frying
@@sameerparihar9739 hello sameer are you single and ready to mingle???
And soaking in milk helps with the flavour
The only bad thing about lambs fry is accidentally smelling that milk after soaking.
i hated liver and onions growing up but our paleets change as we get older, so it's just a matter of time before people come back to it in my opinion. I love it now.
Liver and onions is one of those dishes that it's easy to do wrong, but if you get it right and don't overcook it it is one of the most delicious things you can eat. I eat it often.
America does more a pot roast slow cooked in its own juices. The British style looks amazing.
12:09 omg, „Monty Python foot from above smashing down“
Lamb not being eaten in the US is so surprising. Awesome cut of meat. Eaten lots in Australia/NZ as well
I’m an American, lamb is one of my favorite meats behind duck. I don’t eat it too often because it’s kind of expensive, but it’s delicious.
It's eaten here, it's just more expensive than beef because most is imported from Australia and NZ... Our domestic lamb isn't nearly as gamey cuz it's grain/corn fed, however we don't produce nearly as much
People in the US aren't very adventurous in terms of meat. Most people eat almost exclusively beef, pork and chicken, and turkey. You'd be surprised by how many Americans don't even eat fish 😄
I live in the heart of beef country (Nebraska) in the U.S. and I love lamb.
I normally coat my lambs liver with flour and shallow fry it with mash potatoes crispy fried streaky bacon fried onions peas and gravy. Bloody yum
Peas and liver? Man... I'm thankful my ancestors told your ancestors to kick rocks roughly 2.5 centuries ago! 😂. Keep your nasty peas and breakfast beans to yourself! 🤣
Pretty sure the Beef is brushed with Mustard and then wrapped in film.
Yeah he definitely got that wrong.
@@joshuamonteiromaybe you watch gordon ramsay
@@regiecruz1397 It is definitely mustard that is added to the beef my friend. I work as a chef and have prepared wellington thousands of times in one of the restaurants I've worked in London.
@@joshuamonteiro ...i think all chef have different approach for certain recipe
Sometimes it works for the other sometimes its not
Or sometimes maybe they dont like the mustard
@@regiecruz1397 This is London and Wellington is a British dish. If you show me a video or recipe that says you apply egg instead of mustard on the seared beef then I shall rest my case. I totally agree that chefs can change recipes but in this case i am sure Sonny has said the wrong thing rather than the chef adding the egg on the beef.
1.14 minutes in and that dog is taking a leek 😂
No one noticing the main difference of fork handeling between the UK/EU people and Sonny?
It’s disgusting isn’t it.
those yorkies look epic!! great vid guys, enjoying this tour of my homeland
I never get mine right 😩
14:35 thats mustard not egg yolk
I’ve loved liver and onions and every which way in between chicken, beef pork lamb monkfish LIVER is such a great protein! Growing up in Europe i was exposed to a lot of diverse meals/food and I continue that to this day.
@@nicozaharia3896 chicken liver, bacon mushroom and onion in cream sauce with rice or pasta! Delicious!
I am that weirdo that any time I go to nandos (Which isn't often) I always get the chicken livers. Outside of that I don't tend to really eat offal but I appreciate when certain countries do.
"The top ten restaurants in the world are all in London"
"And what kind of food do they make?"
"French..."
“I ate that like a snake“ 😂😂😂😂 love it
I love Liver and Onions with either Mash or hand cut Chips and gravy nom nom
The last chef is 100% French... he got offended over the testical joke 😂
The series has taken what was good about the ones Bourdain would do, there is a bit of that and I like it a lot. Culture, food and a lot of experiences with booze to accompany everything. Really fun to watch, especially because the host never fears eating whatever is on the table.
When I served in the Norwegian army, we sometimes got served liver in brown sauce. No one really liked it. But we ate it still because of hunger :) Never had it since. Great show!
There's something about it being cooked with onions and gravy the onions sweeten it up and the gravy and mash just make it really hearty. The key is not to over cook the liver otherwise it ends up tasting like an old boot strap
Gordon looks like Brad Pitt and Willem Dafoe had a baby together 😆
Sonny doesn't know the difference between mustard and egg yolk
He adopted Asian..😂😂
Ahaha you went to Bruno’s 😂😂
Love it!
They tried glamming it up but that is proper old school Soho there
My mum makes the best liver and bacon. One of the first foods she had in Britain when she arrived from Jamaica. Only difference is once the liver and onions are done, she makes a gravy and cooks it all together 👌🏾
Thanks for giving liver its screen time. I try to eat liver at least once a month because of all the vitamins and minerals that are in there. That stuff is packed. For those who want to try liver but are afraid of the flavor I suggest putting liver in milk for hour or even overnight. And then cook it in cream sauce with champignons and serve with mashed potatoes topped with caramelized onions.
Loving the shows in London 😇
When this channel was launched, Sonny insisted they would never film in Europe😳
Thanks for uploading, I was looking for a interesting foods in Britain
Gordon Kerr looks like Jim Carrey's cousin
I was looking for this comment! I was going to say he totally is Jim Carrey’s British brother😂
the size 0f sonnys bites of food will never fail to make me laugh... i would choke to death lol
wow that Sunday roast looks gorgeous . I think if I was down there I would actually try the liver and onion
Liver and onions white rice and cornbread was one of my favorite dishes my grandma would cook.
In Austria, we have spreadable liver sausage. As a kid, i would eat it straight out of the package.
homeboy is missing the crepe under the duxelle on his wellington, looking great tho, not hating. the brown butter brush to finish is a great touch
Exactly. Without it the pastry will be soggy
I rewound the video thinking I missed it lol
y'all are blind, pause at 14:44 and you can see the crepe. Sunny messed up by not talking about it, the chef didn't forget it, just like Sunny said it was brushed with eggs when that is obviously mustard.
@@mrmantastic3966 no, I call shenanigans. He also says they brushed the meat with egg yolk but it should also be mustard. BLIND MAN
Beef liver smothered in onions and gravy is STILL a favorite for me!
Yorskire puddings when crispy and fluffy make the perfect bread for a roast Sandwich
To me saying you've never had liver and onions is like saying you've never had meatloaf and mashed potatoes. It's comfort food.
YES !!!!!!
Liver and onions!!! Love it! If people only know how well it makes you feel after eating it. 💪
that beef wellington guy have an accent i have never heard, and i love it. crazy mix
youve never heard a french accent?
I was fortunate to have been at a place for quite a few years where the Head Chef had once been the personal chef for the then Prince of Wales (King Charles III now), when he was in the Royal Navy. His skills were absolutely on point and there were several events and balls that I went to that he catered. One of the most memorable was a banquet, which as the centre piece included an entire poached salmon that must have been several kilos, and a perfectly golden, very large beef wellington, in the shape of a boot.
Wellington is not difficult. Once you understand how it works- all it is really, is assembling. And you can buy puff pastry at the store. I've used venison back-strap before, and if you don't want to pay for the tenderloin you can use pork loin instead. And, in the States we used to eat chicken on Sundays, once it became affordable. Now it's order pizza delivery
Lmao look at the dog at 1:12 takin a piss oin the middle of a street, pure british experience
Dude, you gotta travel around the UK a bit. Have a sandwich in Sandwich, try Gypsy tart in Kent and Pie and Mash in london
Love all these collabs with other stars!!
Imagine if Gordon Ramsey reacted to this video. That will be hilarious yet wonderful.
The chef didn't laugh but I did, a "vegan beef wellington".
Liver and onions is common in Louisiana 🤷🏾♀️🫤, and I love it. 😩😩😩
Sonny was like " okay im not anymore bugs and weird foods, im treating myself this time mutha fuckas"
the sunday roast is basically what we'd eat in america for thanksgiving. we should get with the times and have it every sunday lol
As a kid I remember walking in the house from playing outside and being hit by the smell of onions and liver cooking was incredible
Still the Best ever food review show on youtube. 👍👍👍
I do love some liver and onions. We just had liver 4 days ago. We do soak the liver for a bit in milk, dredge in seasoned flour, pan sautée with butter or margarine. Done. Didn't do onions but some caramelized onions are always great.
Since i like liver so much, i tried different varieties of liver with onion: Berlin/Italian/Egyptian/Syrian/Ukrainian style.
Ahh you got me looking forward to Sunday now 😂😂 love a Sunday roast 😁
I'm American, and I eat lamb regularly. My trick.. I cook it halfway as is, then I remove the fat to finish off cooking. It's the fat that gives it a super strong taste.
I’m guna try that next time never thought about removing the fat half way thru the cook! That’s an awesome idea thanks for sharing!
why would you remove it halfway
@Flaschenteufel so the meat doesn't get too dry, and it's easier to remove without loosing too much meat.
@@ryannebarlow9213 the meat gets dry by keeping the fat? How? I'm honestly confused
@Flaschenteufel lol no, I leave the fat on halfway through so the meat doesn't dry out and still adds some flavor. You can remove the fat right away, but I found that the meat gets more dry and tough.
If this message reaches you,remember that you're strong and remarkable stay positive,wishing you a lovely day dear friend🙏❤😍😍
Cringe
You here too, scantywaa😂
Just what I needed. Going through financial struggles at the moment. Thanks for the message.
Mustard: what am i, chopped liver?
That was a great episode. That Wellington was beautifully done. The best ingredients and a love of skill and care
Sometimes when Sonny is walking around with a mesmerised look on his face, i see simple Jack.
No hate to Sonny lol
You needed to try spice hut in Mile End. This is modern England.
Nah the curry places are disappearing round there.
Finally some proper food on your channel! :D
Head to Scotland, Glencoe is really nice. Wild Boar burgers or venison and pheasant stew. So good
Always went to my grandmothers for sunday dinners and now my mums, its just a family thing that makes sundays so good here
At 16:50 you can see the difference between American and British etiquette. She eats fork down ( as it should) he eats fork up? Why?
Nigel was awesome
I enjoy when he eats with the local people. It is nice to know the history
best wish to let Gordon Ramsay a guest and review 3 top tier dishes
Mash liver and onion gravy made correctly with perfectly cooked liver. Delicious
This is the reason why I like UK Foods 🤤👍
Awesome video as always. I was glad when she mentioned the chicken tikka massala, it's almost a staple takeaway curry item. If you're ever feeling brave enough go to brick lane for the phall it'll blow your socks off.
Imagine describing lamb as adventurous then putting marshmallow on top of sweet potato.
