"That peanut sauce is good. That could go on anything."

I got good news for you padre, it does go on everything!

[VadascovinichRagen]

Love the different takes from each dad. The first one is very picky on texture, the second one compares each dish with similar Mexican ones, and the last dad just enjoys eating.

Yes, Eggs on everything. Eggs are a good cheap way to get protein in many countries around the world. In the USA Eggs are a luxury nowadays. In the countryside of a poor country, eggs are the poor man's protein.
If you don't have your own chickens in a poor country your neighbors do. Buy or trade for those eggs.

I like them all. Even though it's not their favorite food, they still eat and remain polite. greetings from Indonesia

That dad with the mustache got a great tongue! Lots of his analysis of the ingredients were correct just after tasting it the first time. I wish he tried Indonesian spicy dish since Mexico is known for their spicy stuff also. Something like fried chicken or fried catfish with sambal and fresh veggies AKA lalapan.

Indonesian food do be bussin'. Would love to see the Dad's try Moroccan food next

Gado-gado is usually just the fried tofu with vegetables without rice, so it really is more like a salad. The style I am more used to usually comes with shrimp paste and peanuts as a dressing. Also, on jellies in the es chendol, I would just like to add that, in Southeast Asia, agar (derived from seaweed) is usually used in place of gelatin, and has a firmer texture when the jelly solidifies (and we have a jelly desert often just called agar agar that can be flavoured with fruits, coconut milk, etc.) with a firm texture and stronger structure than, say, jello, for example.

i love their innocent reaction, feel like watching my dad. wholesome.

5:57 “they love their eggs dont they?”
laughing so hard while eating my egg stir-fried vegetables (im indonesian)

[tiaravenesa]

peanuts are also protein that we use as a cheap alternative, this is why nut allergies aren't as common here as the US because we have peanuts everywhere


Not saying peanuts are cheap nowadays, but that is how it was back in the day

Did you guys know in Manado (one of the city in Indonesia) we do have Enpanadas which you guys mentioned several times in the video? we called it Panada.

Yay, finally! I'm really happy to see their honest reaction! 👍 There are, in fact, eggs in that cake! 😁 I approve their choice of _bika ambon_ because it’s made with exotic spices like makrut lime leaves, turmeric, etc. and has a unique texture thanks to the addition of palm wine (if it's authentic). Combined with coconut milk, it makes the kind of savory desserts we prefer in Indonesia but might taste weird to foreigners.

There are a wide variety of fried pastries in Indonesia, adapted from Portuguese, Spanish, Dutch, French, and British culinary influences: panada, pastel, risoles, karipok, etc.

I won't even complain about the lack of authenticity in all their dishes because they had to work with what they have there. There must be a reason why they serve _gado-gado_ and _sate_ with rice, probably to cater to their market or because they don't have the means to serve the proper condiments. All in all, I'm just glad our papahs can try our food! 🥳

I love how they're all very welcoming and respectful towards different foods from a very different culture. Hats off.

[WordAte]

I haven't watched yet. But the answer is yes. Indonesian food is fantastic. And Mexican Dads love fantastic food.

[surferwanderer]

These gentlemen are very good reviewers!! And they complete each other, like one would pinpoint the ingredients, another would pinpoint the taste and texture, another would explain how it feels to eat it... kudos to the dads and the crew who casted and brought them together! Oh and as an indonesian, i think you made a great choice of indonesian food, not too common but also not too bizzare. Thank you, i enjoyed this ☺️🩷

[Ranamon]

I’m Malaysian so we are close to Indonesia. Very close. And boy let me tell you. They can Best dish I ever had was a beef rendang made from a friend of my mom. Some of the best food I’ve had!

[kletingmerah]

The black tshirt dad is may fave! He describes all the dishes very clearly, he’s way better than food vloggers that can say only ‘delicious’ and ‘yummy’ 😂. He should create his food review channel 🎉

[krissiregar]

Gado-gado usually comes with more peanut butter and more vegetbles. It's like 70% veggies and 30% carbo.
it's a healthy food, I think.
Gado-gado in this presentation a little bit different that what we usally have here in Indonesia.
And we love our food spicy, maybe just like you, guys

Anyway, a nice vid.
I do enjoy watch this.

[youutaaa]

Love how respectful they are even when they don't like some of the menu. I love them!

As an Indonesian myself, Mexican food fits very well into my palate, so I'm glad to hear that they like most of what they've tried here.

Food truly unites people

I love all the guys especially the guy with the glasses
