My husband and I have been in the Philippines for 3 weeks now and the Sofitel was by far the nicest hotel we stayed at in the Philippines. The food was phenomenal the service was unsurpassed and the hotel an it’s amenities were sublime. My husband and I as we were indulging for breakfast even mentioned to one another how Mark should go do I review on the food at the hotel if he hadn’t already done so only to find out days later that he did! This hotel is a must go for both its decadent food choices and it’s grandeur!
I really wanted to agree with you but after I visited this buffet in December 2019 I was not impressed. I will attest to the hotel itself being absolutely amazing but the buffet was comparable (and maybe even less than) most vegas buffets. The seafood got my whole party sick the next day, the selection of food was not as big as it seemed in the video, and the diversity of food was quite dissapointing; it was no where near as diverse as the food mark presented in this video. I think the best thing they had during my visit was their indian section, where I went back multiple times to load up on the roasted lamb, daal makhani and parathas. Even the dessert section, other than the halo halo station, was sub par. I really hope that I jsut so happen to visit on an off day for them because for $80 my budget would've been better spent towards other ventures while I was there.
I like Mark's mannerism that every time he put the food into his mouth there is something in him that kind of sensational feeling. He always moved his head down toward his left or right and said wowwww. And I really like it. Keep it up, Mark Weins.
Mark, you're the only YT that I follow. I just love how you are so gracious and how you describe how the food taste like. Not like others who just skip the detailed descriptions on what they are eating and give great remarks. I love how you are educated on different history tidbits, facts and your food experiences at different countries are so priceless. Keep it up! I just laughed and enjoyed how you like your food hot with chilies and other savory ingredients. Keep it up! There are more undiscovered countries to explore.
J Malonzo don't know if u ever watched "STRICKLY DUMPLINGS" if not u must give it a try the channel with the guy mike on it is so well worth it he is my absolute favorite food channel!!
Mark, don't let the 'haters' bring you down. Jealousy is tuff to over come & not worth the time & effort. Keep up the great work & sharing your experiences with us.
Watching your videos during this pandemic bring back good memories of traveling and dining. It's quite uplifting. We need more of these to help us look forward to brighter days. Thank you so much Mark!!!
I spent 8 weeks at the Sofitel when I was there back in 2009 and gained about 30 pounds from eating at the buffet during that time. Was a beautiful place. I was there for work and my office was over beside the Mall of Asia.
8 weeks for business. You stayed at Sofitel and then ate their buffet. You are one lucky guy! Staying at the Sofitel and eating at the buffet is so worth it!
I love that you're educated about the food. Others would be all clueless and have uneducated remarks. But you sir are awesome. I love your videos and the respect you have for other cultural food.
I used to don't like his face expression before because he keeps doing it every single bite after he eats. But after all and all videos I' ve been watching. I kinda understand that this is his nature facial expression when he is so much enjoy eating his food and because of great and yummy food drive him making more good video for us to watch. So please respect other and all the haters leave him alone. Please keep up the great work. I'm from Thailand and I'm a huge fan of you Mark.
+XDavidX2004 Yeah, I'm so jealous after watching this. It reminds me of eating at Bacchanal buffet in Las Vegas, but this looks even better. Seeing Mark's food orgasms after every bite made me even more jealous by the way, haha!
Whenever I watch Mark's video it tells me how life good it is when it comes to eating. More power to you Mark and looking forward for more mouth watering foods that you are going to show us.
Yes Mr John Bell, you will not regret the the food there, l have already been there courtsy of a classmate who invited us to that place she just returned from The US of A sometime in 2006. I have not eaten a buffet that grand up to the present it was really almost complet .
+lavista4u I like some of the beaches in the Phili. Back in 2004 I went to Thailand and on to Ko Phi Phi. The beach there did not have lots of people. There was a movie named The Beach (2000). After that movie Ko Phi Phi is now a crowded resort. I was on a beach in Puerto Princesa, Palawan with my girlfriend there were just three boys there who asked me if they can have a picture with her. I agreed. We basically had the beach to ourselves. You have to be lucky to find that in Thailand. Also the beaches on Panglao island are not swamped and crowded with tourists. I think it is in Boracay but I've never been there.
XiaNg Ys I was in Bali this past July. There was a fair amount of people but nothing as crowded as some of the main beach resorts in Thailand. I've not been to Sabah.
I was watching Mikey Chen's Strictly Dumpling videos before I discovered Mark Wiens with Mike in Thailand. I alternate between the two of them depending on my mood. I find that both are able to communicate their experiences in vivid language. Thanks to their videos I get to tour the globe with them and imagine the nuances of flavors and textures of every dish they taste. When I have to eat alone at home I find myself preparing my meal in anticipation of sitting down to watch their videos in Mexico or Lebanon. Somehow every bite of my meal is enhanced by the gorgeous plates of food I see before me, all on video. Thanks, Mark, Ying and Micah.
As a psychology teacher i can say that its because at first you think that he is faking it, but when time progresses and when you see that he repeats the same reaction you know that he isn;t faking it or changing for the sake of chanign, but he does it because that's the way he enjoys food, so you will be able to enjoy it with him.
Oh man, I'd like to fly to Manila just for that buffet! Amazing variety and everything looked really high quality. Not sure if I'm brave enough for balut though.
I love this guy, Mark is never ever gaining weight after eating so much of sumptuous foods all over the world. Your facial expression is your trademark, besides you are eating the best food ever. I love Thai food though so much, no wonder you are eating red chili's like me. Keep going and more power, and thank you for visiting Philippines and come again.
the sheer joy on your face when your eating always makes me smile, I'm just managing to get through all your older videos but I still have a lot to go XD its actually quite fun to have my own meal and 'eat' with you, though the sushi station in this video made me want to make sushi even more then I do now x.x.
wow some of these comments are disgusting is this you guys first mark video ? if you don't want to see him enjoy food as a food vlogger then simply don't watch. I seriously don't get why people are so angry is it because you couldn't eat any of that amazing food ?
My husband and i love your videos all that amazing food and wonderful places you visit . Thankyou for sharing all your experiences with us. keep up the good work 👍🤗 and many blessings to you and your family .
Mark I really appreciate that you compare the foods you eat to more similar dishes other people are used to. I think by doing that gives people the confidence to expand their pallet because it allows us to be open minded since you compare and describe dishes that most of us eat so there's familiarity there.
Im one of your filipino fan here.. I love watching food bloggers and you are one of them..I so love your expression whenever you taste good food.. You know how to appreciate.. More videos please.. Thank you and God bless. :)
+Ratfink820 Its 40 to 80 depending upon the day of the week....there are many other buffets in Manila that are equally awesome...google Viking buffet which is moe popular amoung the locals as the price is lower like 20 USD
Tuan Quang Tran he ate it the wrong way, you are right. He should've peeled the membrane on the first side that he cracked. That was actually the right side. More balut soup!
I really love your reaction when eating those amazing dishes, pretty awesome and satisfying to watch it makes me crave whatever food you're eating, keep it up Mark! 👍😊
Mark, don't change your facial expression as when people want you to do so. It's your genuine personality and iconic reaction that make this food blog get going.
I love the way you give your expressions when eating and also I just admire your knowledge Sir. I really enjoy watching your channel over and over it's so refreshing
It amazes me how genuine your reactions are everytime you taste your food. I can sense how honest you are in your opinions everytime you taste them. It's unbelievably amazing how you are willing to taste everything that is being served in front of you plus I think it's great that you can eat too much. Watching you makes me hungry everytime even if I just ate. I love your vlogs and I personally think you are the best. Thanks for embracing Filipino food and culture! 🤗🤗🤗 Keep it up! You and your family are wonderful.
I would love to go to Manila just to stay at the Sofitel and eat at the spiral buffet!!! It looked so spectacular! Thank you for sharing with us, Mark!
Great video MW, I will book my next stay at the Sofitel just because of watching this vid. I am going to the Phillipines in late December to experience Christmas and New Years for the first time. I thoroughly enjoy your videos and one day I would like to Meet MW and family at a new, foreign place? Lastly, if fans start referring to you as MW, I was the one who coined it.
You're doing great Mark. You've been a great help to my family last December during our 6 days in HongKong. We tried Yatlok, the street food, and lots of many other food outlets. Thanks to your food blog! Keep up the good work. :-)
Hi there I have been watching you videos from past 1 month. Your videos are awesome. I like your expressions. Keep going. I will definitely meet you some day. like u met Andrew.
Feels like his reactions were identical. It's like a bit happy, eats it, squints a bit his eyes, then tilts his head to the side and does some weird laugh. this looks amazing though, but expensive AF
+Rainbow Panda says 87.50 USD with all-you-can-drink alcohol. Around 70 USD or so without the drinks. It's cheaper on weekdays, but I'm sure the selection isn't as extensive.
Cordelia Enid H That's true. :) It's definitely on my bucket list, but it's a little expensive for people in Manila. It's the equivalent of about half a month's pay on minimum wage. Anyone with a decent job can afford it, but it seems kind of wasteful to spend so much on just one meal. :)
I've been to Philippines twice, stay in Japan. While there are a few tasty dishes like roast pork lechon most others you will be disappointed especially with the non-Filipino dishes there. Happy eating!
Great visit Mark! I've been to Spiral twice, and it's not only one of the best buffets in PI and Asia, but in the world! The cheese room really capped the experience, as I, like many others am a cheese addict. I live in Vegas and go to buffets a few times a week. From China Star and Golden Corral, to Bacchanal at Caesars and the Wynn buffet
@@Debasmitabhadra466 basically boiled egg. Except it's fertilized, so the chick is starting to develop. I'm a local & only tried it when forced back when I was a kid. Never touched it again XD Though I do remember the taste being OK. It's just ew to look at.. also messy to eat.
It‘ one of the best food tasting channels of the internet. I feel like packing and traveling today just because of the face expressions. Congrattulations. Se already have a litteris fanclub in Brazil.
+NADS IQ Yeah, people got different metabolisms, Im even a bit more skinny than him, and I eat a tooooon, I usually eat 3-5 dishes for dinner, I also eat a lots junk food snacks cakes soda and sh-t, I wish I can gain more weight, its not healthy to be too skinny
The food looks good but the prices are very expensive :( Must be a 5 star hotel? Prices: 4,092 PHP per person with alcohol= $82 USD , 3,378 PHP per person with no alcohol= $67 USD
mrmcna abby thats not expensive at all with free alcohol?!wow.amazing All you can eat sushi dining (only sushi) without alc already costs 110 euros= 110 dollars in germany,not even 5 star,and 110 is cheap for us.
Thats still cheap vegas buffet in glendale california is already $30 per person and the food is sucks its all same chinese food . And still cheap compare to $95 buffet at cesar palace in lasvegas. So not bad if you wanna treat your self .
i guess you should try their buffet at Spiral first before you say it's pricey. you'll be amazed with the selection of food they have.and not to mention their CHEESE and COLD CUTS room.😇
Hello Mark, love the videos but where do you put all of that food ? I could never eat that much and you look in shape to boot! Keep up the good work and bless you and your family!
How amazing the way you eat... loved it.. “open wide mouth and close you eyes... you can feel it.... I love you blog..always watching.. More power to you and family

He's the best. He definitely doesn't always do it, though. Only when he is into it!

Even most of the filipinos never had a chance to eat at sofitel's buffet. Lucky you!
8 weeks for business. You stayed at Sofitel and then ate their buffet. You are one lucky guy! Staying at the Sofitel and eating at the buffet is so worth it!
Your facial expressions of blissful joy, would make any chef proud.
PAK!
that's so true!
true..
I love the way he enjoys food! :D
The easy way how to make any chef happy.
Everytime he bites something and eats it, he goes slow motion after hahaha
False drama, he would make the exagreatted face if he was eating satued dog turds.
He does that only when he really likes the food.
Yes i like his face
I love that you're educated about the food. Others would be all clueless and have uneducated remarks. But you sir are awesome. I love your videos and the respect you have for other cultural food.
Cool

That's his signature expression you need to have one when you review something ;)
Maggie's Channel yeah you're right he makes that stupid face every time he take a bite
Maggie's Channel I wanna meet you in Philippines or maybe in Thailand. My residences is in U.S.
And you can tell how good, so-so or superb the food was just by his expression!😁
Maggie's Channel 2
The appetite is incredible. I love your eyes sparkling that say how excited and appreciative you are.im a fan of ur many videos. God bless
Gigantic buffet with sofa! This is my heaven!
Still heaven
Worth it, if you ask me!
+SnorkFlirt Money AND time very well spent in my opinion. That looks outstanding.

I love how mark eats and how he appreciates the food while eating :)
The reaction every time he takes a bite of something new makes me smile so much :)
his reaction seems so genuine and he's so appreciative :)
he makes the same reaction for everything though
I first saw this video 6 years ago and I still enjoy your reactions to the food served in the Best Buffet in the business. Kudos Mark!
We always eat at Vikings Buffet at Mall of Asia. But this one is absolutely stunning! We will go here one day! Thanks for sharing!
Juan Castellano Belmonte vikings is okay... but it fails on the dessert section...
Yes Mr John Bell, you will not regret the the food there, l have already been there courtsy of a classmate who invited us to that place she just returned from The US of A sometime in 2006. I have not eaten a buffet that grand up to the present it was really almost complet .

The Philippines is Divine ! ❤️
I wonder if he makes that face even when he's eating alone.
Lmao
Lmfao
lol I was thinking the same thing...
I'm sure he is! Haha and believe me - so will I in about 10 days! Manila here I come!
bahahahaha
and here I am drinking water to satisfy the hunger
Apir brad...lols...ESEM 🤣

Sometimes I feel hungry, but often times watching him eat makes me feel full for some odd reason.
just having a toast...to alleviate the hunger....no it did not help...

He is one of the few non-Filipinos that ate balut the right way. Facial expressions are on point! :D
Did he eat it upside down? In Vietnam we start on the other side.
Tuan Quang Tran he ate it the wrong way, you are right. He should've peeled the membrane on the first side that he cracked. That was actually the right side. More balut soup!
South East Asian eat it to
Yeah he cracked it the wrong side, the first attempt was right
But his mom is Asian and wife too so he knows balut is.
Nice to see you enjoy the Filipino foods, especially lechon. I have been watching you daily and enjoying your trip almost all over the world.
That is an insane selection of various cultural dishes. I would love to enjoy so many delicacies in one place!!!!
great video...don't mind those people who keep complaining about your expressions...keep it up.
Well people are entitled to their opinions..and it was annoying him making that face after everything he ate. I almost stopped watching the video.
+Martha Wallace well I never said that people should mind their opinions.This is my message and opinion for Mark.
+Kartha Mala Aletnuiq Dumb bitch, who thinks his reactions are real lol

My family loves to see your videos Mark, that even my daughter keeps on saying i want to eat like that.... :D God bless you man!
Love the way you show your pleasure on you face to each food it is so easy to tell when you are truly loving it

Awesome 👍 Mark 😅 all the dishes you showed and consumed was spectacular great vide as usual 🥰🥰🥰🥰
I'm going to Japan in 4 days and here I am thinking of a trip to Manila. Oh Mark, how you tempt me so :(
+Sarah Tan You should visit Philippines...best kept secret in Asia
I'll definitely add that to my holiday list. Thanks! :)
I've been to Philippines twice, stay in Japan. While there are a few tasty dishes like roast pork lechon most others you will be disappointed especially with the non-Filipino dishes there. Happy eating!
I need details of this place....I want to go there with my wife yummmmmm
Google Spiral Buffet at Sofitel Hotel Manila
Me and my mother are a huge fan of ur vids and to my mother if she doesn't see ur vid in a day, she becomes very dull. Plus love ur expression

I love his reactions makes me want to eat at spiral!!!
mee too
Best place for debut hotel and best place for Buffet
Thank you for appreciating our country, Mark! ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Great visit Mark! I've been to Spiral twice, and it's not only one of the best buffets in PI and Asia, but in the world! The cheese room really capped the experience, as I, like many others am a cheese addict. I live in Vegas and go to buffets a few times a week. From China Star and Golden Corral, to Bacchanal at Caesars and the Wynn buffet
I'm a Filipino but I can not eat balut. I just can't.
I love how open minded you are and how adventurous you are tho
Yung sisiw yakk
What is dat?? I didn't understand from the video very well
@@Debasmitabhadra466 basically boiled egg. Except it's fertilized, so the chick is starting to develop. I'm a local & only tried it when forced back when I was a kid. Never touched it again XD Though I do remember the taste being OK. It's just ew to look at.. also messy to eat.
I really enjoyed the viewing of the different types of food from the different countries . Everything looked so amazing and good .
Love your videos of your family and all the beautiful places you visit.
for me his facial expression is so natural and i enjoy it after watching all his video, so kind of person and i like him the way he eat the food
Just saw this vid. I really enjoyed it. I love the facial expression, I can almost taste each dish. Thank you for sharing!
Nice of you bringing your wife and kid with you wherever you go.Good job!
His face when he tastes the items gets me everytime!! Lol!! 😂😂😊😊
That is the most amazing buffet I have ever seen
It‘ one of the best food tasting channels of the internet. I feel like packing and traveling today just because of the face expressions. Congrattulations. Se already have a litteris fanclub in Brazil.
How does a skinny guy like you fit so much food in?
+Adrian Morton please visit Matt Stonies channel
+NADS IQ Yeah, people got different metabolisms, Im even a bit more skinny than him, and I eat a tooooon, I usually eat 3-5 dishes for dinner, I also eat a lots junk food snacks cakes soda and sh-t, I wish I can gain more weight, its not healthy to be too skinny

I love the way Mark “melts” after he eats something and just lists sideways! He really loves tastes!
Ur facial expression when eating ur first bite is priceless!
You really make the food seem so delicious:)👍🏻
Enjoy ur videos

The food looks good but the prices are very expensive :( Must be a 5 star hotel?
Prices: 4,092 PHP per person with alcohol= $82 USD , 3,378 PHP per person with no alcohol= $67 USD
mrmcna abby thats not expensive at all with free alcohol?!wow.amazing
All you can eat sushi dining (only sushi) without alc already costs 110 euros= 110 dollars in germany,not even 5 star,and 110 is cheap for us.
Its expensive for the locals but not with the foreigners, its worth ir for them
Thats still cheap vegas buffet in glendale california is already $30 per person and the food is sucks its all same chinese food . And still cheap compare to $95 buffet at cesar palace in lasvegas. So not bad if you wanna treat your self .
i guess you should try their buffet at Spiral first before you say it's pricey.
you'll be amazed with the selection of food they have.and not to mention their CHEESE and COLD CUTS room.😇
4k php? Last time i checked, its just 2k+ php /head
Amazing buffet! I had to cover my eyes when you ate the chicken embryo lol
Hello Mark, love the videos but where do you put all of that food ? I could never eat that much and you look in shape to boot! Keep up the good work and bless you and your family!
When I grow up I want to work there :D
you mean EAT there😁
“ ohh soo good”
“Ohh sooo smooth and silky”
“Ohhhh wowwww”
“Ohhh head tilt to the right”
I'm so looking forward to eat also at this spiral buffet on my next vacation to the philippines. I enjoyed your video , thanks .
How amazing the way you eat... loved it.. “open wide mouth and close you eyes... you can feel it....
I love you blog..always watching.. More power to you and family
I just love how you appreciate good food with your facial expression. LOve watching your videos Mark Wiens!
I love seeing how much passion he has eating different foods
Exactly. Who needs rice when you can save that space on your plate for more exotic delicacies?! Smart choice. I would have done the same thing.
They need to open SOFITEL in Vegas
