Love French food from Italy 🇫🇷🤝🏻🇮🇹
i love italian food too ! especially in sicilia ! (yes i m french)
Siamo vicini (sono di Monte-Carlo) è mi piace molto la cucina della grande Italia
to be honest, in my taste Italia is the only country who can rival our french cuisine.
Love Italian food, from France
Love Italy from France :)
You should travel around France and try the regional specialties. It's incredible how each region has its own products, dishes, and food customs. Highly recommended!
👍Tartiflette, bouillabaisse, choucroute, cassoulet, and soooo more !
just like every country
@@abheceshabemuskk3531 stfu, not at all, here its absolutly different from every region
@@abheceshabemuskk3531 nope not every country. Some countries, like France (or Italy), have more diversity between each region
@@naelgodefroy2535 like most countries
As a french, i would like to thank you for exploring our food culture with respect
I'm French and I'm so happy you enjoyed some of our gastronomy ! We have many more dishes for each regions 😋
You and every other country in the whole world…
@@congresssux9766 The video so about France so.....
Croatian here - French food is the best in the world.
I'm parisian and Sonny, I have to say, YOU DID MY CITY RIGHT. Great choice of dishes and of places. Can't beat what you did. 100% accurate and fair in my opinion. Hope you enjoyed your stay, just sad I couldn't see you in our streets. COME BACK ANYTIME ! ! ! !
@@rohamisamazing political stuff ?
@@rohamisamazing what is polotical stuff?
It looks like French food is overpriced cheap ingredients.
overrated tourist traps
@@alexnhan8527 lmao you think THAT was "french food"? btw, going to a nice restaurant in paris and ordering snails and calling them expensive is like going to a high end bar in manhattan and claiming that the $15 beer is expensive. no shit sherlock. and a $5 pack of cigarettes is $20 at LAX airport. "french food is overpriced cheap ingredients" lmao what a moron
While studying abroad a crew of Americans went to a high end French restaurant to get some snails. We thought the "special tool" was supposed to be used like a crab cracker. So a table of 6 naïve Americans were sitting around "cracking snails." Eventually one of us looked up and pointed out the whole restaurant was staring at us. Some in disgust. Some in laughter. Good times. Fond memories. Now anytime we make a faux pas we call it "cracking snails."
From one MN boy to another...I love the show. Keep it up. Dontcha know!
Whahahaha that's one of the best restaurant anecdotes I've ever heard xD Thanks for the good laugh!
Haha did you even succeed cracking the shells?
@@iagreewithyou3478 Still likely the funniest thing I've ever done. I got one! And that's because the exact moment everyone looked at us was when I went full "oonga boonga," gripped the sunabitch hard down at the base and cracked the shell into a million little pieces.
Not my brightest moment considering the utensil obviously isn't meant to crush..in my defense, it was week 4 into an Amsterdam study abroad and I was high 102% of the time.
French here, that is hilarious and sweet!
That's really funny! Sometimes French people aren't very kind or patient with foreigners unfortunately! Someone should've told you.
Bernaise sauce goes really well with cuts of steak and other red meats. Fun fact, it’s basically a hollandaise sauce, just with added herbs, shallots and usually vinegar.
I'm surprised he didn't know what it was.
it is really similar but not quite the same, the vinegar reduction for example
Nice to see a very adventurous person who doesn’t shy about trying everything out of our (sometimes) questionable cuisine ! ❤️🇫🇷🌸
il a déjà bu du sang coagulé cru avec des tribues de je sais plus où, donc franchement rien ne lui fait peur
WHAT is questionnable? What are you trying to say, here, hiding beyond that insulting silly name ANY Germs could only muster queer of their own jesty while sinking they too should be known as French thanks to Charlemagne founding their capital in the first and even second place, for that matter : koenigsberg Port-Royale.
@@messire9837 what

@@lefr33man shuddup young won, I beg of you so you don't have two.
French viewer here ~ Been watching your show for a long time and it made me sooooo happy watching you enjoy some classic french dishes !
La même 😉
he didn't knew what Béarnaise sauce was xDDDDD
@@platterhof Because of course, what's best to compliment your extra-fatty porc than an egg and butter sauce ?! haha
la même! mais dommage qu'il n'est pas visiter lyon qui est la capital gastrronomique de notre pays :c
Same here!
Glad to see an american that can appreciate french cooking. You're not just making fun of us. You have my respect.
Yeah actually most of them appreciate but they can’t resist to make fun for nothing of us. + it has something to do with the war in Irak
french cooking kinda sucks tho, snail, frog legs and whatever that stuff was at the beginning, sweet bread? yeah that's all weird
@@ridgefrost it's just, with japanese gastronomy, the only gastronomy protected by the unesco. So... and if you only know frogs and those kind of things, you absolutly don't know french cooking, even not 1%. We are masters of cheese, wine, bread, venoisserie... but, yeah, french cooking sucks
@@Tristan.Raymondpersonally i do appreciate good cooking but i do not appreciate exotic meals which the french seem to focus on heavily, anything out of the ordinary or with a strong taste isn't really for me which is why i've had a hard time finishing even one bite of liver, and the funny thing is i'm from a french speaking background
@@ridgefrost gratin dophinois is absolutly not exotic, or jambon persillé, or andouillette de Lyon, or ratatouille, or foie de veau, or cassoulet, or boeuf bourguinon etc etc. French cooking do not focusing on anything, it's even the strengh of the french gastronomy, there is so many different type of meal, there's plenty meals for everyone.
The way his eyes pop when trying the mashed potatoes is everything! Love him!
Sonny,
I'm happy to say that I recreate this whole video while on my honeymoon last week! My air BNB was literally next door to Au pied de Cochon by pure coincidence. Loved the first restaurants snails so much that we went back a 2nd time! Thank you for the recommendation, and I think I got you beat as i was there for the world cup celebrations!
Glad you enjoyed France man
Congrats on the wedding!
My mother was French. Thru and thru. We went to Paris and tried everything at the best restaurants. I didn't think about WHAT I was eating, but Mon dieu! It's ALL so good
For my part, I'm 100% french but living in Tokyo. When I'm back to France (one or two times a year) I want to eat the Real McCoy of french cuisine, I hate the "nouvelle cuisine" which is just a hype thing full of Japanese cuisine influences for the ingredients as well as for the picky-tiny decoration of superlative plates full of nothing: NO WAY !!!
From UK moving to France very shortly. Dordogne region. Had to miss my my family's most recent trip dew to illness, watching this hurt! the food has to be one of my most favourite things about that lovely country!
je suis heureux, de voir un américain découvrir notre cuisine, heureux et fier!
perso jamais je tenterais les escargots... par contre pourquoi ils trouvent que le cheval et le foi de veau c'est bizarre?
@@rathalos4783 pour le cheval, la consommation de cheval est strictement interdit aux Etats Unis, et pour le foie, les américains trouveraient bizarre de manger des abats
The food looks AMAZING!! I've always wanted to try French cuisine but was unsure on what to start with. Now I know!! Gracias Sonny!!
as a Vietnamese, i can see so many similarities between our gastronomy culture. most of these dishes have a Vietnamese counterpart
Well of course France did colonize Vietnam 😂
@@jsparky249 its stupid to say that many countries were eating pigs and sheeps back then... they arent called household animals for nothing lol
hello how are you, i really do love your comment, i must confess i was impressed by your world.
Vitenamese food is a very healthy. With a lot of rawness vegetable.
French food is very rich, lot of butter, rich sauce etc…i think you can’t find a country who is more opposite of the french food than vietnam.
@@doncho We have a lot of healthy food in france too ^^
True story: my father travelled to Paris on the Eurostar for just one day in August (many businesses close for the grandes vacances) about 25/ 30 years ago with my mother specifically to eat lunch at the Pied de Cochon and it was closed🤦🏻♀️ My father is obsessed with pig’s trotters. He still talks about Le Pied de Cochon to this very day; pulling on those brass door handles shaped like pig trotters was the closest he was going to get to trying the famed delicacy. My Dad is 83 years now… maybe I will make it happen for him.
Please take him there
don't wait to bring him there! at 83 you're still in shape :)
Make it happen bro....I got your back
Make it happen!
sounds disgusting
Had me laughing when he "traveled" through Paris from the first to the second restaurants wich happen to be 5 mins walk away from each other :D
Also, the second one is open 24/7 so definitely a good place to end up after a long night partying in city center, to wash the booze away.
I would suggest not hanging out for too long in this area after a long night partying. A lot of scumbags in this area and it's getting worse every day.
we usually wash down the food with booze over here. But yeah hahaha
how much is the food
Well, you have to drink to forget. Argentina campeon franchute, a llorar a la iglesia.
@@alainportant6412 It is in a very safe area actually
Hi from 🇦🇺 sweetbreads we’re my favourite as a kid. Crumbed and made into ‘chicken nuggets’ with a garlic chive and lemon aioli for dipping, they were melt in mouth delicious. My kids loved ‘mamas special chicken nuggets’ until they found out what they were 😂
A simple bearnaise and a beure blanc are two of the best sauces ever created. France and Mexico and south east asia have the best condiments/sauces on the planet
Love the snails! Definitely goes to my top5 dishes of all time. I introduced veil liver to my parents as a sidedish for christmas table, everyone loved it. It was cold smoked and served with smetana, a type of sour cream. You got to add some cranberry jam to the cut too.
Damn, that actually sounds delightful. Invite me over next time. 😉
Did you k is that Smetana is sour cream in Czech
@@Londoner37 yeah i knew, just made it clear to some people who just call it sour cream
Beautiful.
Don't confuse crème and Smetana prosim
Love how sonny always describes the food as he eats it
Lyon and the restaurants named "Bouchons" are a great way to taste some original weird french food. It's amazing 😉
La cuisine Lyonnaise. Formidable!
''Bouchons'' are the equivalent of Pubs or old Taverns in England/Ireland. It designate a place where you can eat & have a drink. Wine being more popular in France (since the Romans) than beer (which was the Ancient Gauls Celts main alcoholic beverage) a bouchon is 'slang' a wine bottle stopper.
It all looked really good to me. Simon and Garfunkel were awesome. Was fun to watch. Great video
Bro your 100% of my entertainment! I wait for your videos I can’t afford the Patreon but I wish I could see more. Love your videos!
Keep doing anything brother!!! I’m from India originally and I loved the way you covered everything you did a great job I’m North Indian so I’m Punjabi. Thank you for not being disrespectful and covering everything the way you did. Keep doing your thing! Love you brother.
wrr
calf sweetbreads (or "ris de veau" in French) are my absolute favorite meal. Unfortunately, it's quite expensive and you have to order them from the butcher because it's rarely on the shelves.
It is indeed the thymus of the calf (there is the same thing with lambs) which is a gland which only exists in children because it produces growth hormone and disappears in adults (it's the same in humans).
It doesn't disappear in adults.It just becomes smaller.
I remembered one time you said Europe wasn't interesting for you in terms of cuisine and I'm glad you changed your mind. France is an amazing country full of surprises and hope you can visit other parts of France, like, if you like guts, go to the city of Caen for some chef kiss, or the region of Alsace for some choucroute, the South and Marseille for the bouillabaisse etc etc
And tbh, the restaurants you choose are gold 🌟
Yes, I also remembered when he said that Europe wasn't interesting for him culinary talking. That comes to the conclusion that we can always change our mind.
Dordogne, lot et Garonne, Burgundy region all with its colors fragrances and memories to pill . Should I add the Mediterranean coastline?
Once you have done that slowly you can retire , rewind and replay till you return to check it out a bit deeper, eh eh. Have a safe journey.
He means North Western Europe and Scandinavia. Not France, Italy, Spain, Portugal, Turkey and Greece etc......
@@Unsweetened8618 Turkey is not really in Europe ! Turkey is a transcontinental country that is located in both Europe and Asia. BUT the European part of Turkey, called East Thrace, accounts for 3% of the country's total area, or 23,764 square kilometers. The population of East Thrace is approximately 10 million people, or just 14% of Turkey's total population.
To sum up: Turkey that is located in Europe is just a tiny 3% !
@@hermes3386 Turkey can be throwin in that Euro pot too
Still Southern Europeans have Better food
Frog legs & Beef tartare, escargot or sweet breads, I love them all. I'm from Ottawa Canada and got the chance to try those foods at different times but they are very pricey. As for your comment on how they know what piece(s) of the animal to cut, I can say that the slaughter house I worked at 50 years ago actually had 2 men doing just that. Of course there were many doing the actual cutting up the animal (I was the man who put their lights out) but they also carefully carved the skull to scrape that meat which was used for some medicinal purpose.
in Louisiana most of the frog legs i see are basically seasoned the same way we do fish with spices and breading and deep fried. they are so good
There's a reason why Louisiana is called after Louis the XIVth of France.
@@LuxMortis_ i guess majority of mericanos do not know that :)
Un ami visite régulièrement "l'Amérique profonde" ,celle loin des grandes villes ,et il apprécie énormément la nourriture qu'on y cuisine.
Prenez le temps de cuisiner ,trouvez des aliments sains loin des usines à bouffe et avec un peu de talent ça ne peut être que bon.
Nice video indeed, it's interesting, funny and shows the real thing, what local people would invite you to try. I'm Italian but I absolutely love French cuisine too. Keep up the good work.
Thanks a lot for sharing our cuisine !!!!! Glad you enjoyed it 🙂. You should now travel in France (out of Paris) to show the other dishes we have in the countryside !!! you'll love them all, with the wines of course !!!
For the next video please try Andouillette Sausage. I would love to see your thoughts on that “delicacy”!
I love French food but couldn’t f with Andouillette. Tried it twice at two different brasseries just to be sure and, No. Waiter at second place actually warned me it was intense!
You need to do the reverse for American foods! I'm American and have been living in France for over 35 years.
When I return to the US, there's corn dogs, hamburgers on glazed donuts, and so many bizarre things. Everything is fried!
🤣🤣🤣 👍
fun fact : i’m parisian and my mom used to make calf liver alllll the time. The thing is : it’s smell so good when it’s cooking but i HATE the taste ! It doesn’t taste like meat at all ! I think it’s the first time of my life that i understood that if something smell really good, it doesn’t mean it’s going to be my taste after all. Thanks mom for keeping doing this dish for the rest of my childhood even after i said i hated it ❤️
Sweetbread! My father used to prepare this when I was a kid. He would slice it thin, bread and pan fry it. Serve it with lemon and parsley. Very tasty! Thanks for the memory.
I've had sweetbreads, my sister made it in culinary school and it was fantastic. It wasn't bitter the way she made it. We went to Le Cordon Bleu. If you eat it well done the texture is better.
Omg love the tiny nuances he brings to the table 😂will forever be subscribed.
Sweetbreads, frogs legs, snails, it has to be tried, all delicious, I need to try Pied de Cochon for those crispy ears, not eaten there and I've lived here for 28 years !
Thank you for coming to Paris ! You should do a trip around France, each region has unique and amazing dishes ! 🙂
Whats crazy was when I went to paris in August. That was the first restaurant I ate at to try out escargot, frog legs, and salmon. Also the same exact seat I sat at next to the entrance. Love the videos Sonny.
As a highschooler in drama club, we performed Shrek the musical, hear me out lol, and we had a banquet dinner after the show to celebrate. Our schools chef at the time prepared blooming onions along with a ton of other shrek themed food but out of everyting, she prepared frog legs, which no teen in our backwoods upstate ny town had ever had before, and i still think about that meal like once a month bare minimum. thankfully she moved onto a job where her culinary skills were very much valued. just had to share a nice memory this reminded me of
aw i love that
Growing in rural Midwest in a family with mostly Germanic roots, there was never any waste when it came to foods..."throw-away" cuts like sweetbreads, tongue, heart, etc... were regularly prepared, and they were delicious.
I have to agree. And add to that the Frog Legs; well, there wasn't much in this video that was bizarre. Except maybe the really fatty pig portions of the trotter and snout. I have never learned to handle pure fat!!!. Just a personal aversion. Texture, perhaps. But I was surprised he didn't have more dishes of wild animals like rabbit, squab, dove, or pheasant. As for fried liver, that has been a favorite of mine since I was a young child. Although we always had the heathen version of liver and onions!
I was in Paris 20 years ago. We stayed there for one week. OMG that snail and frog is so good and the plate presentation is wonderful.
I love 90% everything you ate and would love to try the last 10% (the last dish).
Someone said you have to try canard au sang. Oh yes do it is so good.
Among the unusual dish, try the tablier de sapeur. It is more or less fried pig fat. :)
You also have to try all the kind of pâtés and other terrines. Charcuterie in France is no joke.
I was incredibly spoiled by an incredible cook for a mother - she made me sweet bread and escargot as a child and they became my favorites ❤
You are in the right place for great food mate. The Latin quarter for me a few years ago remains an unforgettable experience ! And those snails are lit! Damn good…Creme de Cassis also not to be forgotten!
When I was a kid, all summer we would hunt for several hours every evening catching these huge bullfrogs. Then we would take them back, clean them, brine them in buttermilk overnight, and then mom would season, bread, and fry them. Damn, they were delicious.
French chicken chasseur in early spring feels heavenly. I have a good culinary experience and when it comes to eating escargot or any edible snail, I know the best season where the eggs can put any premium caviar into shame. They're some of the finest things in life, I've experienced.
@OB1 Look how much butter is in all this Cuisine! I love butter, don’t get me wrong.
You could eat anything cooked with this much butter.
Pig Ear & Snout……disgusting.
hello how are you, i really do love your comment, i must confess i was impressed by your world.
God... I adore escargot. That looks delicious! I havent had frog legs in years, but they were lovely and very mild flavored. It's hard to go wrong with some butter and herbs. This episode makes me want to go back to France.
simply the best cuisine in the world ❤️
What is quite interresting about french food is that there are different specialities in each region...so you basicaly tasted one 10th of our specialities 😁
The choice of parisian restaurants is perfect though 👌 but come to Toulouse or Lyon or any other french city and you'll discover much more 😉
True, but isn’t it like that basically everywhere? In Europe it is at least.
@@michieljuta976 Probably true indeed
@@michieljuta976 Well, France is quite unique in its kind, maybe you will find a lot of culinary diversity in Italy but I invite you to look at a map of French specialties to give you already a small idea of what this cuisine is (it would be impossible to put everything in a map, really)
@@michieljuta976 Let's say that France is the only country in Europe where, thanks to the mild climate in winter, and good fertile soil, you find such large herds. there is such a wide variety of cheeses, meats and poultry, fish, seafood, wines, fruits and vegetables from the north and south, cereals, pastries, high-end confectionery, chocolates... Probably the most productive and complete territory in Europe in food production. And stable for 2000 years, with a gastronomic history strongly influenced by the Romans, who were already very refined cooks. We eat very well everywhere in Europe, but France has the largest choice of quality raw materials. And a know-how, a passion for food and the pleasures of life. The Romans disappeared as the dominant civilization, but they transmitted this gastronomic heritage to us, and we adapted it to our regions. I think we are the best in charcuterie. Also in pastry. In wines and cheeses. Thanks to the richness of the terroir, unique in Europe.
Long time subscriber, I remember my man swearing he would never be hitting up Europe for foodie adventures. Yet here he is tearing it up.
Really making me want to go back to Paris :D it's been too long and that Tartar looks amazing 🤤
Living in QC, Canada, we can buy escargot at the grocery store for something like 3$/115g ( around 36-42 escargot in the can ).
It's so cheap and easy to bake... in a plate with garlic butter and cheese over it. eat it with a good crispy bread like Ciabatta.. its delicious ! :)
There is a difference between store snails and fresh snails bro.
Even more when its prepare by a chief in Paris, which is the most expensive city in France.
For exemple, this snails recipe is from burgundy, and in burgundy you can eat it for a small price and it gonna taste better than any parisian restaurant
make sure they are Helix pomatia , if not they are Lissachatina fulica african snail which are very chewy
So nice to see Sonny in Paris, the City of Lights! This was a fun and visually beautiful video to watch. The French do have a magical way of making "bizarre" food look elegant, beautiful (and even spiritual by putting their patron saints on the plate). And it's cute how they tend to force people to drink their wine (because no wine or the wrong wine means you don't know how to live). Hope Sonny will eat regular French foods and not just weird foods in France. Looking forward to more videos from France.
isnt it the city of love
@@flatweee6066 It's both, and more...
They douse with a heavy cream based sauce.
The wrong wine doesn't mean "you don't know how to live" but that you have terrible taste :/
Some flavors go together some don't, nothing complicated here :D
For sure white wine is not made for these kind of associations. It is lighter so it goes with seafood, fish, cheese or dessert. Red wine is an absolute match when it comes to (red) meat and game
I want to go to France to try out their tasty cuisine.
You mean amazing
Welcome 🙂
I hope you can book 2 monthes then, because as France is a very old country, each 100km you will find completely new different specialties (North, West, East, South-West and South-East of France look and taste like whole different countries) !
You are more than welcome !!! come over here :-) Restaurant are much cheaper in France than in the UK or in the US, trust me ;-) Happy & proud that some of you like our cuisine. thank-you
love how your in a fancy french restaurant eating with your hands 🤣🤣🤣
So fun to see your reactions! Both restaurants were my favorite hangouts in 1996, watching you tear through that pigs trotter had my mouth watering at 0800AM in Seattle this morning, to say nothing about the escargot, Oh to have that for breakfast!
this is exactly how i imagined french food would look like, very classy dishes indeed
@V for good reason
Would you say the same about the exotic foods in Vietnam?
France is the most beautiful and has the true beautiful people
@V it's not difficult to find great cheap menus in the countryside of france, of course in the tourist parts of paris it is going to be pricier
@@hangxoft2925 Each food has its own identity and upsides, vietnamese food is amazing and in terms of street food probably more varied than french food. But in terms of looking classy in high end restaurants, french food probably wins. 1-1.
France is such a unique place. Wish I could visit one day.
Most hilarious food review I've ever seen. I already had tears in my eyes when he said "That frog must have been a gymnast". But when it came to the comparison between "Simon Art Garfunkel" vs. the porc trotter with Sauce Bearnaise, it just blew me off. Thanks for the really great entertainment!
And by the way: now I'm hungry, too!
Ironically the first time I ever had frog legs was in Minnesota in the mid 70's, The restaurant had a frog leg fry night. I was a kid but found them to be delicious. Still do!
You should try "Canard au sang" a recipe you can only find in France with a whole duck pressed to extract its blood and juices to make a sauce.
Also try "ortolan" a delicacy forbidden now.
Ortolan may be awesome but it is an endangered specie, so no don’t eat it. But canard au sang is one of the best dish ever!
@@adrienhb8763 it's not an endangered specie, at least in france
I'm English and I've tasted everything and enjoy French cooking.
I spent 10 days in Paris this summer and I miss it so much. We ate at Pied de Cochon also. Sonny being my favorite TH-camr serving up a video of food in Paris? Pure gold! Thank you, Sonny!
What did you do to have a great trip?
@@deadinside8781 Luxembourg Garden was my fave. Also, Versaille. Picnic in grass at Eiffel tower. Sienne boat dinner cruise. walked cool neighborhoods like Pigalle, Montmarte and Le Marais. Ate amazing food. ate charcuterie on our airbnb terrace, took the Metro everywhere, visited museums galore.
hello how are you, i really do love your comment, i must confess i was impressed by your world.
@@chriscatton705 so you didn't do anything interesting 😃
@@chriscatton705 relax it was a joke
A la vue de cette vidéo, ma fierté d'être français se ranime, et se mélange de nostalgie. En Bolivie, pour l'instant, ces images me tireraient presque des larmes. Merci.
I’ve watched every episode I love watching your shows….. education, relaxing and intriguing
We used to have a buffet in town (I live in Northern Indiana) that served frog legs and they were amazing. They shut down, unfortunately, so they are a lot harder to find now.
Snail and frog legs - reminiscing on my time in Mauban PH, foraging snails during low tide and had them cooked in coconut milk along with some squash “ginataang kuhol”🤤
My mom used to cook frog legs, adobo-style sans the traditional soy sauce but with all the other traditional ingredients. Uber good😋
Are you talking about snails or winkles?
0:32 I walk by L'Escargot Montorgueil *all the time* but I've never been. You've totally encouraged me to check it out ! Looks great !!
Nice to see American people loving our cuisine. However its funny how you ask how to telle the words "in French" but "tartare" or "sauce" are literally French words haha. In fact most of the technical terms used in cuisine (French word also ;) ) are French !
I would bet green backs he is Canadian.
@@jenniferrollison4377 Minnesota..close!
Only Sonny can make a banger video like this in Paris! 😂😂😂 loved it guys!
I love frog legs & Beef tartare. I’ve never had escargot or sweet breads. Though I have prepared sweet breads quite a lot…while in culinary school and during my days working in restaurants. If there were a place close to me that made escargot I’d absolutely try it. Anyway, much love to y’all. Love the video, as always. ✌🏻🥰😊
I ate escargot and i think he overexaggerated them a bit. They mostly taste like the butter you stuff them with. They just give a small amount of "different oil/fat" and texture to it.
But basically you could replicate this with any spongy food - like tofu for example - and the same butter.
How can you have cooked them but not tried them?
That sounds really odd
@@sneer0101 two different things said by two different people. The host comment diferentiates to the thread.
@@sneer0101 yes I know it does. At the time of my cooking them I was part of a religion where it is forbidden to eat certain things….thymus glands being one of them….as they are seen as unclean.
Now that I’m older I’m no longer part of any religion and I eat what I like. I just haven’t tried sweetbreads as of yet as they are difficult to find where I live. ✌🏻😊
@@sneer0101 p.s. I only recently had liver and I didn’t like it. Though I’ve prepared it many time and it always smells so tasty….I did not like it at all. 😂😂😂😂
I also never ate shellfish or pork until I was an adult. Of course I wouldn’t prepare pork either as it was unclean and we weren’t even permitted to touch the flesh. But I realized that those food laws were necessary to keep ppl from getting ill before refrigeration and before understanding safe cooking temps. So…now I’ll try just about anything…tho I do have a line I won’t cross because of my own tastes. ✌🏻
Note for the snails:
We usually do not put the bread in the shell.
First we eat the snail, and then we put the shell in a way that the butter drip in the plate.
Once all the snails are eaten, we sauce the plate with bread.
Amazing food good eating 😋❤️
for those of you that havent tryed snails, the taste is amazing, the textur is a bit like a gummybear, so If you dont like to eat snails, just try the green garnish cooked in the snail, that is the best part.
They're similar in preparation and taste to mussels.
Bro I've never had snails and this made me want to try them! 🤤 This was awesome 👍
its uper normal and tasty you will not be disappointed
Absolutely amazing ..!!! 😍🤩
Béarnaise is a butter and egg yokk emulsion (as a mayonnaise) seasoned with tarragon, Shallot and a touch of vinegar.
It's a speciality from a region in south west France, called "Béarn", it is traditionally served with prime rib.
A great selection of eats! Has been years since I've been to Paris ..want to go back even more now!
French food doesn't get enough love!
in what world ? ^^
Great review, very easy to watch
referenceLoved the Simon and Garfunkel reference! LOL.
Here in the Philippines we love to cook frog and snail in coconut milk and some serious spiciness 😋😋😋
Ooooh i love Paris so much!!! I want to go back, so badly!
Love escargots and frog legs ^_^
The B.I.G. shoutout. He gets cooler everyday.
The food is very appetizing. If you have the opportunity to go to France I'm going to eat the Frog Leg menu because I love frog legs. It's a local dish from the Northeast, but I've never eaten snails, which is very interesting. Thank you for making good clips for us to watch.
Liver is certainly NOT a strange food, and it's very delicious (a southern dish). My grandparents on both sides were ethnic and we enjoyed all manner of organs meats and odd bits. It's the care and preparation of "anything" which determines how amazing it is.
It's also very common in many countries in Europe. Pork, veal and lamb liver taste almost the same (a bit gamey), while the chickens liver is lighter in flavor.
If you were french you would not believe that it is a strange food which and you having heritage and family that eats that food makes it more of a regular food whereas some people may not have had liver and eating liver isn't as ubiquitous as other parts of the animal which I think is the comparison as it is "strange" to the majority of the people watching his videos. :D
I have a booking at this restaurant and had planned to try these dishes. Now I'm even more excited!
“I’m paying for 5 souls” most horrible yet funniest way I have ever heard food described 😂
You should try the andouillette ! It's a kind of sausage made out of pork intestine, it’s very tasty, very bold, definitely one of the best french dishes.
i guess "bizarre" is subjective and in this case is relative to the north american palate/viewer, but i didn't perceive anything remotely such in this entire segment- in fact, i can't recall the last time a food program made my mouth water as much. everything looked absolutely incredible and made we want to plan a whole food tour in paris (and france in general). thanks so much for this incredible content.
I'm Swissgerman and I wasn't surprised at all. The veal liver and the pork cuts he ate, exist here too. But they are eaten very rarely because they take a long time to prepare, the young generation likes the quickly prepared stuff sadly.
I'm not sure what part of the pig snout he ate, but the one I made a while ago had some extremely tender meat under the thick skin.
I was a bit surpised that he didn't eat cow stomach stew, that would fit perfectly in the ambiente of the restaurent. Maybe they don't offer it?
In the winter there is the "Gnagi" here in Switzerlnad, which is the ankle and a bit upwards of the pig. Excellent taste and I usually make it in the oven for the crispy skin and then use the bones in a stew the next day.
Interesting to see how frog legs are made in France compared to South Carolina! Either way they are delicious, almost like a light fish.
I think you may find it interesting how they cook anything in France compared to South Carolina...😆😆😆
8:10 haha when your chef is a bit too motivated
Excellent french foods… amazing video…
Food looks so amazing and please keep them coming buddy 👍 many many thanks....
I think I want to go france because of the food in this video that makes me hungry already 🤤👍
There was nothing in the video that made me hungry... except for the mashed potatoes and fries. I don't really like liver, escargot or extremely fatty cuts of meat. I cannot say that I don't like frogs legs, or beef tartare because I have yet to try it. And although these are foods that, I have never tried and are not common at all to me... I will try anything once. Well, anything except horse.
@@ImNotInLoveItsJustAGameWeDo horse tartare is mindblowing
Been in France didn't like those foods at all brrrrrrr
@@barrydeiter1192 you're the problem then not the food
@@pbz4994 different taste.
Sonny has such enchanting eyes.

I thought the same but I preferred not to say so and I have never paid attention to his eyes until today!!
my french eyes hurt watching you holding that glass of wine 😂
Awesome video mon ami !!
