- We're in ECUADOR (Country #3)! We are starting in Quito, Ecuador, and kicking off our adventures with a DIY Ecuadorian food tour. We compiled a list of ten Ecuadorian foods and dishes we wanted to try, and over the span of 24 hours, we ran around Quito and checked them all off of our Ecuador "foods-to-try" list! While digesting our good eats, we were able to visit the Basilica del Voto Nacional and enjoy stunning views of the city of Quito. 🇪🇨
Follow along to see where we head next.

I was so scared at Bishop Castle!! My legs were shaking on that unsteady bridge
Viento means wind, but the empanada is called that because it is inflated and full of air!
Oh no!!you miss a fruit Tomate de arbol so delicious specially on juice.and Im happy to see my Country 🇪🇨🇪🇨
Oh no! We have to keep our eyes peeled to try it! Thanks for sharing your country with us :)
Superb video with such energy and love ,bless you both ,Ecuador here i come
The encebollado is a much more common dish in the coastal area of Ecuador, although it is a national dish since it is also made in Quito.
Omg I get so happy when I see foreigners coming to my country, trying our food, experiencing our culture, I hope you had a great time in Quito, Ecuador 🇪🇨
I also wanted to mention that the reason why it has harder to find encebollado in Quito even though it's a super famous dish here is because the dish is originally from the cost and idk but some people (myself included) think it's prepered better at the cost, but I'm really really glad you like it, it's a strong and super tasty dish
Love to go Equador meet you if you are available
Woooooow this looks so nice. I am half Ecuadorian half German and food really was my way to connect to my culture (even though I don't live there). Thank you for showing all this delicious Ecuadorian food! I feel inspired hahahaha 😄. Enjoy your journey!!
Happy to see tourists enjoy my country
Excellent video
This was so well researched and planned! Btw if you're ever in Queens (NYC) you can pretty much find all of these dishes :)
I’m just enjoying the out of the country videos so much. Great food and that cathedral! Omg.
Basílica del Voto Nacional. Mide 116 m de alto. Estilo gótico. Saludos desde Quito.
Very nice
The ceviche de concha is oyster
The seco de chivo is usually a little bet sweet
The narajillas is mostly for juices or ice cream also for making secos .
Enjoyed Ecuador 🇪🇨 👌
Enjoyed the food tour So much to choose from . Would liked to have one of the empanada. Thanks for the tour. Enjoy your week . Till next video 🦋
Always enjoy the pictures at the end.
Wow awesome food!!! I notice that the food are so similar to the other spanish infuence countries. Food is definitely a must to try most specially the huge empanada with cheese inside. It was nice to see rain there we are so much in need of rain here in california ans so happy to see rain on other parts of the world. The cathedral climb was scary im glad you both made it safe. Thank you so much for taking us along your journey and sharing all the fun things you do. God bless you!!!
Hope the rain comes your way soon! I feel like California has been needing rain for a while now :/ Thanks for following along, we feel honored to share our adventures with you!
Enjoy it, Great food Over there, ALL YOU NEED IS ECUADOR 🇪🇨👌🌎👏
Wow! The food looked incredible!!! Ecuador is high on our list and we can’t wait to try the food💛
Ecuadorian food is delicious, versatile. I love it!!
The church you were in is the National Basilica. The Cathedral is on the main square. The tower at the basilica is the Condor Tower. I wasn’t interested in climbing that high.😂 I ❤️ encebollado!!
I’ve been researching Quito and this is one of the best videos I’ve come across! I was especially excited to see that flaming locro de papa and giant empanada. Could you let us know what restaurant that was?
“La Casa de los Geranios Restaurante”
Thanks for watching!
Really happy to see travelers or foreigns rating our food
I love the list you made (am going to steal that idea from you...I hope you don't mind) ☺ Everything looked so delicious....we're celebrating Thanksgiving here in Canada today and I'm so grateful for the food we'll have but it sure would be nice to eat something different...so I enjoyed your food tour a lot even though I couldn't actually taste it, Claire did a great job at describing it. Thank you so much for sharing. P.S. I'm a Senior Travel Consultant and will be using your vlogs to show my clients what they too can experience 🤗😁
Do you eat the same type of foods in Canada for Thanksgiving as we do in the States?
@@agalstreasures565 for the most part, yes, but we're a multicultural country (same as the USA) so I'm sure each family has their own additions and favourites 😁
Wow! It is so cool you are sharing our videos as a resource for your clients! We feel honored :) Happy late Canadian thanksgiving! Hope you had a wonderful time celebrating. Thanks again for watching!
I totally agree with the list of foods to try idea...
Love this one you two. I am so full.
You should really try llapingacho with the also Famous Ecuadorian peanut sauce and mix it with all the flavor on the plate. The patty alone doesn’t do it justice. And I recommend Guatita another famous dish.
I have found the perfect video to explain to my friends in Australia what Ecuadorian food is😋... Thanks guys for an incredible video. Well explain😉🇪🇨
Quito looks beautiful and the food looks delicious. I’ll make a note of the foods so I can try them :). I’m pretty sure there is an Ecuadorian restaurant near me.
Love your videos
😎 You two always bring "The Fuego Experience". LOL. I am full just watching you eat all the food. Keep up the good work!
Fun food & great video
This is purely magic.Your content is amazing.Inspired! Thanks for the share.Needed that, thanks!!!!!
Of course! Thank you for always cheering us on!
I am loving these DIY food tours you're doing! Take care you two! 💕 Ecuador looks amazing!
Escuador es increíble! Un país pequeño lleno de magia y encantó.
This seems to be a very charming place, I hope I can visit sometime in the future when all this is over. Seeing and sharing places like this is why I love traveling and make videos so much! And please keep up the great job! Subscribed!!
Hello guys - can you share the name of the restaurant where you had the empanada. I am going there next month and would like to try! 🙏🏿
Thank you guys for your awesome videos.
Thank you for your continued support!
Good morning ☺️ it’s 5 am here and it’s always a pleasure to watch your videos especially with a lovely young couple like you 💙 God bless you both 🙏🏻
Wow! Bright and early. Thanks for spending your time watching!
your videos always have me on the verge of tears!! in a good way :) The way you film and edit is just astounding!! sooo beautiful 🖤🖤 im glad you're living your dream
Yay! Good tears are the best tears! So happy you are enjoyed our adventures! Thanks for sharing your time with us.
Fascinating and insightful
Such an incredible video; thank you for showing the beauty of my hometown! The humongous empanada was a great surprise :) I'm a student at Harvard right now, but I'm going back to visit my family in less than 2 weeks for the first time in almost six years so I can't wait!!!
Wow, I finally caught up to you. I came across your vlog a few weeks back when looking for places to visit along the California central coast. There were several such vlogs, but most lacked the personality and joy of yours. So I went back to the start of your journey, where I thought "holy smokes, fresh out of college, just married - you guys are nuts!". But danged if you didn't make it work. And your wonder at the world made me so happy. I was just a little sad that my viewing was behind you, because I kept wanting to say, "Hey, I lived there, you should see this or that (or eat at this place)". So now I'm caught up and can put my two cents in.
First, I assume you know about another adventuresome travel vlogger who recently converted an SUV, Eva zu Beck - if not, I highly recommend her channel.
Second, when you come to Korea, let me know. It's my second country, I speak the language, have lived and visited there many times over the past 50 years, my wife is from there, and I'm technically a dual citizen - so if I happen to be there when you visit, we must get together, but even if not (we live in Altadena, California), I can advise you and introduce you to people. For example, there's a certain guesthouse in 전주 old town that you must stay at - be prepared for long stories that may have some elements of truth.........
We definitely had some fights along the way, but we think our year in the van made us a much better team. We are excited to hear your two cents on all of our future videos! :) We'll have to check out her channel as well! I'm sure you've already heard all about "Squid Game" on netflix but we just recently finished it and are blown away by Korean films.
Anyways. We will certainly keep in touch as we plan to go to korea hopefully soon and we would feel honored to stay in your guesthouse.
@@ChadandClaire Of course - we've been married since '74, and fights are part of the journey.
Korean TV shows (the movies get into Korean tastes for French noir cinema, although 'Parasite' was quite good). I really enjoyed 'Goblin" because the actors are very good, and the story includes Korean myths and notions about death and rebirth. Good stuff. For an action flick, try 'Healer' (the female lead is an accomplished judo player, but you never see it, sadly) (I know this because our daughter-in-law's older sister is a judo teacher, backup on the national team).
Ahem -reasonable assumption that it's my guesthouse, but it's not - it belongs to Yi Seok, a son of Yi Kang and grandson of Emperor Kojong. He firmly believes he is the true king, although Korean succession doesn't work by strict rules - the elders select who they feel is best for the job, and they felt Yi Seok was not. But he's a very interesting guy, in his 70s somewhere, has had a checkered career to say the least. Really fun to talk to, and I'm pretty sure he speaks English. We know him because my wife is related on the maternal side.
I love your video … you are both delightful presenters … so enjoyable I subscribed!
Awesome video. Thank you! I was a tad sad that you chose things other than what you ate before. The flavors can be different. For instance, the shrimp ceviche you had before looks very different than the Ecuadorian version. When it comes to ceviche, Ecuador is the best! The variety is insane!! Most other countries have only fish ceviche, and a shrimp cocktail than Ecuadorian shrimp ceviche. Shrimp is the most popular ceviche in Quito, or at least it was when I lived there.
Having said that, it rocks that you ate all the different things you ate, including a non-fish ceviche. :) Next time you visit try the ceviche mixto, (ceviche mixture). You get all kinds of different ceviches in one dish its fepic! :)
Also, FYI, the wind empanadas aren't that big. They are a regular-size empanadas. The massive monster you guys ate is likely a gimmick to impress guests in that particular restaurant.
This type of channel is very instructive and well-thought-of in terms of video production. I definitely learned a lot in this experience and thanks for sharing this type of content with TH-cam.
You haven't done it in a little while, but it happened in this one - my stomach FLIPPED, flipped and then flipped some more!!! That church definitely reminded me of that rickety stairway y'all were on at Bishop Castle!!! And, I know exactly why they sell alcohol IN that church -- to calm you down after that crazy climb!!! That was a lot of adventure in one day!!!! Keep up the fun!!! Safe travels!
Encebollado means loaded with onions, which is weird because the soup has fish in it as well.
Beautiful video, great food choices! Ecuador has a very diverse cuisine, from tropical and coastal foods to Andean foods. Naranjilla is also one of the ingredients used in Seco de Chivo, great in savoury and sweet dishes and juices, but I never recommend it as a fruit on its own.
Just a little correction, the church you visited is a Basilica, not a Cathedral. Generally, a Basilica is built and funded by the people for the church, while a Cathedral is build and funded by the church for the people (More or less).
Keep it up, you guys are awesome!
I like your style,it has good vives......your enthusiam helps. ......your list is so eloquent......Great video....
Wonderful video, thanks for posting!
U guyz rock🌝🌝
Great video! Ecuadorian cuisine is very underrated and have a huge variety. Thanks.
Great video! And being a foodie myself, I loved to see a few things I haven't tried. I would also like to offer up suggestions for a few of my favorites for you to try as you travel throughout Ecuador. Here they are in no specific order: Tigrillio (breakfast), Maito de Pescado (Amazon region), Cuaker (beverage) and Yahuarlocro (possibly the same thing as the Locro de Papa that you had). I started watching your videos when you were in Peru and haven't missed one since. They bring back good memories of our travels through South America and give us ideas for our future trips.
Wow! Thanks for following along on our adventures through South America! We will be eating the Tigrillio in our next video! :) (Soooo tasty!) So many more things to try! Thanks for sharing your recommendations.
Happy for the fun you two are having ❤....reminds me of my younger self....great country and lovely tour❤
What a yummy adventure. Well done!
You guys are awesome, thanks for making this video fun and entertaining .
I love your vídeo about My country.
This video made me homesick! Great job, Chad and Claire! I hope you didn't try all those yummy dishes the same day! You definitely have a strong and daring tummy to take all that in! What a wonderful video!!
Such a cute couple, and I loved seeing all the food. Great descriptions! We'll be visiting in a few months so I'll know what to order!
Wow, this video was just an epicurean delight! It has left me with a hunger that caught me totally off guard lol!
You two really like climbing great heights 🤗😀……….👍🏼👏🏼🤗🤗
Gotta work off all the food we eat somehow! haha
@@ChadandClaire Hahah 😂
That last lot of food looked great, it's lucky you guys walk everywhere to burn it off otherwise 🐖😄.
As always, stay safe and enjoy life's adventure 🤙
Thanks Aaron! So funny to hear that our videos come out in the middle of the night for you. Thanks for supporting us from way down under! :)
@@ChadandClaire 😄😄👍
popcorn in the sierra, coast where there are from the shellfish , we eat ...with chifles, pan, arroz y roscas ... have to see more :)
Yummy!!! Amazing city!
Thanks for your video. I am going to Quito/Galapagos in April. This was informative for my planning.
amazing genuine, smooth content. loved it guys! new subscriber!
Welcome aboard! Glad you enjoyed it!
You both are adorable. Thank for all of the great info.. on my way to Quito right now! ✈️
Empanada de viento is usually served with morocho. It is a sweet hot beverage made with milk, local corn named morocho, cinnamon, and raisins. Nowadays it is also served with hot cocoa or coffee... Nice dishes selection...
Wow! Delicious Food
Canelazo is a slang word for huge cinnamon, and the drink does contain a huge amount of cinnamon!
You missed Yaguarlocro, Tripita, Librillo Caldo de Bandera, Ceviche de Balde is better with Tostado not popcorn. I'm from Quito and I can honestly say this is the best video I've seen so far of the cuisine from my home town, but I wish everyone will try the rest of the many dishes Ecuador has to offer. Thank you and my country always welcome you two and many more 😁
Loved this video of the tour of the Cathedral and your climb to the top. Also, your sharing the top ten foods was a great feature too. Great video!
I loved your video
Hi. Nice video. New Korean friend follow you 🇰🇷❤️💕❤️🇰🇷🇰🇷💕💕💕😊👏
I am Ecuadorian and Out of my favorite is Encebollado they also eat it in the coast like Guayaquil the city
👍
great drone work
Hi guys. I recommend you tasting the Llapingacho in Ambato city, you can find the original dish there with a special king of Sausage, Encebollado in the cost region (example Guayaquil), ceviche in Manabí. Greetings
There is also an elevator to climb to the tower of the cathedral.
GREAT so did u enjoy Ecuador..I believe u back in Japan /China .THANKS go visiting my country.
You missed out on bollo, bolon and humita but great list
I see that Chad has an Osprey backpack, which one is it? And do you like it? I’m looking into getting one but they have so many different styles to choose from, I dunno which one to get.
Hey Sapphire!! I do like my bag, but the only thing I wish I had was a better spot for my laptop. I believe the osprey I have is an older model because I bought it at a used local outdoor gear shop a few years back. I have linked a very similar version on our website here: chadandclaire.com/faq/gear
Hope this helps!
Maybe the names are similar but taste complete diferent.
3.00 is probably the tourist price
Empanada in Ecuador is different
ecuadorian food is totally different than our brothers, should try trheir fodd as well and youll notice the difference ! all is in the spicies and all the condiments we mix in. It is totally different, even in the ceviches
Just to clarify what 'SECO' means:
In Ecuador, as a staple food tradition, we typically have two parts to our meal - the soup and the second course, which is essentially a stew made with various meats like pork, chicken, and more.
During the early 20th century, there was an English presence in the coastal region of Ecuador where they were working. After finishing their soup course, they would ask for the 'second' course. The locals, attempting to mimic the name, adopted the term 'SECO' for this second course."
PS: Naranjilla in Colombia is called LULO not Ludo. :)
Your welcome.
Concha equals "conch". It's a shellfish similar to a giant snail.
Que simpatica la chica
7:21 Sucks that graffiti also happens in Ecuador.... I'm Peruvian and we have this problem with our ruins and other historical landmarks as well.
What restaurant did you go to at the end of the video? That fire experience was awesome.
What was the name of the nice restaurant you went to in Quito? Great video!
Good video. Ecuadorian gastronomy is NOT a fusion of Peruvian and Colombian, it is it’s own! It’s logic to find similar products, hence some ingredients may overlap in the boarders but that’s it.
You can’t have a cangrejada, tigrillo, bolón, fritada (amongst many others) in those countries for example, you can only get them in Ecuador, also some ecuadorian dishes are popular in the neighbor countries’ only in the peripheries cities such as encocado that belongs to Ecuador. Also concha negra is not clam, it’s different. 😊
Hi. What was the nice restaurant you went to in the rain at the end?
NOO that seco de chivo it’s not the way that it supous to be 😢😅 it is really good when you go to the correct restaurant not everybody know how to do it yummy 😋👌
What was the name of the last stop on your video?
I hate to be that guy, but that was not a clam ceviche (ceviche de concha), and we, coastals, do not eat any seafood with popcorn. That's highlanders heresy.
Hola. Viento es wind.
pl indicate prices in USD for the food pls. TQ
Would help if you said the names of the restaurants!
go to Cuenca
Aire
Filippina?
Hay mas comida sabrosa en sopas "yahuarlocro" "caldo de patas", aji de cuy etc. Solo probaron el 1%
naranjillas are sour....
