My goal with this channel is to grow a community of Thailand Lovers who like to have fun. Day dreaming is encouraged here. Always remember, you only get so many trips around the sun... so make 'em count!
I like how Chris gets all excited about somewhere new, then points out that he has to wear pants : ) You two look amazing together having fun!
Haley is so fab - I look forward to seeing more of her bubbley personality - you are so lucky to have a great soulmate!
Thanks for the culinary diversion but, personally, I'd take the street food any day. For what you paid that evening, you could probably eat for a month on the street. Absolutely love your channels!
Looks amazing! Thanks for sharing
Looks fantastic Chris. Always taking it to the next level and showing something for all budgets.
This place is on the list now, looks amazing 💯 great video
Awesome video! Glad I found your channel.
Excellent video Chris
Awesome video Chris! So glad to see Haley around…..she looks amazing! Thanks for sharing this video and cannot wait to check Le Du out in February 2024 😊
Another great video from you CP and the food looks outstanding 👍
That third course looks delicious, the snapper and larvae.
Le Du… on top on my list.
Glad you enjoyed it. I will try to get a table next year.
Great insight into this first ranked restaurant.Watchable on repeat.
The meatball and jasmine rice ice cream reminds me of a modern-hip take on a traditional Thai summer dish “kao chae”, you should try that too ☺️
"Check out the #1 restaurant in Asia, baby!" said Chris and then added after turning off the camera: "Ok Haley, now let's go and have a proper meal"
Jokes aside, i love your your channel, Chris. Keep it up.
The most informative Chanel I found so far ! 👍👍👍
Wow, I envy myself a little... it all looks fantastic! I have to go there too. Your video is wonderful as always Chris! Thank you, greetings from Germany!

Thanks for the vid, one to check out...I was curious to see what all the fuss was about.
might try this
The restaurant is big and nice, of course the food menu has a lot of choices, have a nice day ❤
Fully loaded with flavor
Odd comments from so many...
Thanks for the upload and for sharing Chris.
Glad you two were able to enjoy your evening.
I think Chris took the wine pairing seriously. He seem to be trying to control himself while enjoying the good food :D
Chris???
That looked awesome Chris not showing my Mrs this video not at them prices 😂
I adore Hailey thx guys loved this video ❤❤❤
i adore her too!! She is so lovely!! 🥰🥰🥰
Amazing 🎉🎉🎉🎉
I love ur both. From bottom of my heart. I'm the starter of subu.

ผมเขียนเป็นภาษาไทย เพราะผมรู้ว่าคุณจะชอบมันมากกว่า ขอบคุณมากๆครับ 💓🙏💓🙏💓🙏💓
This reminds me of a cool spot I was in Bangkok at the roof top restaurant with awesome view called the Dome at Lebua. Where they film the Hangover 2. It cost $600.00 USD for two people. Worth it for the experience not worth it for the food. 😅
Love the video.
Visited Bkk 2019 and dine in Gaggan just before he closed his original restaurant...planning to visit Bkk again in few mths for a short getaway and thinking trying this place
Hello Haylee !!! Hope you all are having a good day !

We will definitely try Le Du later this year….but our last trip, we went to Gaggan Anand, it’s rock n roll meet “El Bulli” You guys would ❤ it!
100%
We're going to LeDu! Omg thanks for sharing your meal with us. We enjoyed it and can't wait to have our own experience
Looking good 👍 (the co-host)
When you're going gourmet and you know the bill will make a dent, the No.1 consideration is that your date (wife) will be blown away 😋 I've no idea how it tasted but looked and sounded like it was worth every penny 🤑
great yummy food
Another video gem
Lol - I’m proud of you Chris for making an effort and putting your pants on!
Talk about visual contrast!!! Seeing you Chris at this place and wearing pants!!! It’s really casual in there. People wearing T-shirts?! Well, I think I might prefer another restaurant. Called the Blue Elephant. Great food and decor. Thanks for this video.
Loved the vlog Chris you're super hilarious although all I keep thinking was how gimmicky it all looked, it's a few Leo's and street food for me.
Hayley's a HOOT! Love you both😁
Cool vid.🇿🇦
Food like that is to experience not fill your appetite. Tiny portions packed with flavor!
Thanks for the recommendation ... I'm putting on my big boy pants and going there next week.
Thanks This good Story & Video ! Retired Time is Best Time ! This I Think !
Find your Passion .
Dream Big.
Make a Plan.
Become an Expert what You Love.
Have Fun along the Way.
Retired is the Best time for You and Me !
All the Best to You !
Retired 4 You.
❤Love this 😂 yummy yummy😂❤.
Chris you had me laughing out loud. I am watching this from Los Angeles! Yeah, it would easily be 2-3 times more expensive here.
Glad u and Haylee enjoyed the meals but i preferred street foods and look way better than Gourmet food
Hey Chris...great show.....but your previous vlog camera ( Iphone pro?) was better in colour quality....and warmer feel! just my comment
Oki, next time I'm there! Do i need to reserve tables much in advanced? Like months?😅
You both dressed very smart looking glam guys x
I didn't know you even owned pants!!!! I can't wait to go there in a month.
Did she just say Bad Ass! Love it!
Yup, that is what she said! Twice now ! ROFL! Love it.
SO CUTE !!!
'You only get so many trips around the Sun...so make 'em count!' Words to live by.
If Hayley (hope the spelling's correct) says its good, then it must be really good. You really are starting to be one of my favourite SEA channels.
12 months, I'll have enough...I'll join one of your tours...then just stay. Remember the dumplings
@@----Admin scammer alarm
@@Psykrom ???
@@jonnywas2665 There was a scammer comment, most likely was already deleted and banned.
@@Psykrom ok
Good❤❤
Prefer Gaggan. Hope you’ll visit all.
Wow 🤩 Number 1 and Number 3 Restaurants in Asia 😋👍
สุดยอดคับจากคน🇹🇭👍😀😀😊😊😊❤️
Hayley for Master Chef judge!
The last time we were in Bangkok we ate at Le Du, I guess my wife and I are not sophisticated enough to appreciate the food and understand the fame. :-(
Oh my god it is so delicious to watch you guys! You are so cute and wonderful! Keep it up! Thank you!
Hardest working blogger in Thailand!
This Canadian real estate scamming clown?
Hi Chris & Hayley, It`s nice to have perhaps once a year a classy chic and pricey Gourmet adventure - you both are beautiful styled ! the food looked interesting and of course very delish with important informations what`s about ingredients etc. I like your "Le Du" experience. What i didn`t like, the ceiling of the room is too low, i prefere high rooms in a classy restaurant - that`s me lol ! 🤗great vlog, Thy ! 🙏✌
I definitely second this 🤌🏾💯
Wow lucky couple. Unfortunately we are all much poorer now 😭😭😭
I ate at Paste in Gaysorn in February, a Michelin-starred Thai restaurant. It was absolutely fabulous! Some of the best food I have ever eaten. Not best Thai food. Not best Michelin food. The best food ever. 7,500THB (£186 or $220) for two including all food and cocktails. Looks like Le Du will be on the list for November when I return 😂
It’s too good for me 😊
I like street foods🎉🎉
100% Agree mate ,plus the cost put's me off 🤣
Can you think of any night markets worth recommending to a guest??watch ! watch!
Ant larva is the ant’s egg. Pretty common ingredient in local Esan food.
Halle is so super cool
looks wonderful. and only 125 bucks... put that in LA, tokyo, new york, or anywhere else and its a 300 dollar each dinner easily
Being cheaper then LA or NYC is nothing to rave about when it's in Thailand. $125 for a tiny meal in Thailand is nothing but theft.
Thailand🧡🧡🧡
ผมว่าร้านอาหารเหล่านี้มันน่าจะคุ้มค่าสำหรับเชฟหรือพ่อครัวที่มากิน แล้วนำส่วนผสมที่เค้าบอกไปพัฒนาเป็นอาหารจานใหญ่ มากกว่าที่คนทั่วไปจะมากินกัน เพราะมันค่อนข้างน้อยและราคาแพง
HEY Chris ABCD.....to Z which ever version of your alter egos might read this .... did you or can you do some vids about the Muay-Thai fights events spots in BKK ? I heard it is quite a difficult dangerous mafia controlled kinda of thing although it is something hugely important the sport -the Thay are known for
Le don’t I would prefer street food any day looking at that stuff 😊
Please review the number to restaurant in Bangkok gangnam style
Looks like the Dorsia of Bangkok
Fancy Smancy....i usually avoid fine dining restaurants due to them being haughty taughty but Le Du does look very casual.
9:53 is that a hair in the brown sauce on the right?
Haylie looks beautiful !
I love fine dining. But, most times I'm still hungry when I walk out of the door.
You and the date 😅
Can you please show kratom shops in Thailand? Thinking about going but curious where they sell kratom
The lady taking the perfect foodie selfie for Insta...11minutes in.
I'd need to be high to eat that art.
Thanks for your 'splurge' video, however, I am looking forward to see your budget friendly food stalls extravaganza tour. I will be in Bangkok in June, and I am looking for tasty payable foods in and around the vicinity of Khao San Road. The 'Le Du' restaurant was packed with Hi-So residents, and that's fine. Let's support the simple, tasty food sellers in the streets of Krung Thep. Chok dee, khun Chris and wife.
*$125 US Funds. Once every six months ok but my Thai wife would never go for it. Love the line, This the Baracuda with something something on top. LOL*
Som Tam Plara on the road directly after this, to clean the good(bad) taste😅
I would need a trip to McDonald's after that amount of food 😂.
55555,at the $125 snack,i'd be looking for streat food to fill up 55555
I am ok with chicken pad thai.
You like finer things? Maybe you like this German Restaurant in Bangkok: Restaurant Sühring a modern German food restaurant in Bangkok and was 2018 at the top of the list of Asia’s 50 Best Restaurants.
Ok, I sent you some info via WhatsApp
The top 50 restaurant in all of Asia? A german restaurant? Is that a joke? Get better food on the damn side of the road.
@@damienyuen7718 beati pauperes spiritu
I guess you need to eat ahead of time before you have dinner there! LOL!!!
just curious why your closed caption is in thai?
Chris Come visit San Francisco, $125 is a bill for an average restaurant, ok for 3 people. A large Pizza will cost you $45 US. Dinner out at an average Thai restaurant will set you back $80 and you have to give a 20% tip on top, you will come out disgusted with what you got.
So $125 for La Du is a darn good deal
To dodge crap and used fentanyl needles? Would need to pay a lot and give me a gun and vest for me to ever go back to that city. Bunch of people just got shot at the Ferry Building in the middle of the day.
@@damienyuen7718 time to clean up the place, big time.
My wife speaks English at the same level that your wife does.
I love how your wife pulls out "bad -ass" when describing...
WOO WOO WOO HAAAAALIEEEEE !!! :) :) :)
Not for me Chris. Good to see though. I am all for the street food, or just tight😂
Lovely video. It ain’t in the top 10 rated restaurant in Thailand let alone Asia. Friends have been and didn’t rate their experience too highly. Staff are nice apparently, but food isn’t worth it.
YES, it is the top restaurant you fool.
How was the price range?
$100 - $400 US Dollars
Hi Ya
I’m in Koh Samui and I’m a right pickle my husband is missing and we have had no luck finding him I was wondering if you have any friends that can help me my Thai is pretty limited to like 10 things
The type of place you walk out hungry and the Thai girl gets street food on the way home 😂
haha well said.
