That woman was being filmed and still played yall on buying the more expensive and worst tasting crabs 😂😂😂😂. She is a straight hustler.

[MaxsonAtTheFort]

The high end chef was cool as hell, love that he tells fisherman to toss back pregnant blue crabs.

[achuaxi]

Savi - You only live once
Sonny - but you also die once 😭😂

[RollieRoll]

Crazy to see Savi You on here. I've watched his family vlogs for a few years now. Him and his brothers always talked about channels like this and how it would be cool to be on one....he spoke it into existence

[seraphimishere]

savi - so you broke the law
chef - No! we don't know 😂

[kalondesiulapwa]

Savi was not too shy with showing that he knows what he is doing, eating, smelling, and tasting. Solid guy.

[BagsPackedFamily]

Cambodia is high on our list of countries to visit! The street food looks outstanding.

[JohatsuSha]

Dear person who's reading this., I don't know you but I wish your days are filled with happiness, health & wealth. 🙏🙏🙏

[buntychea]

almost 10 years ago, i asked if you could go Cambodia to a reviews and you responded, you would love to go. But then your drone was apprehended. I'm so glad you went back and did a full tour of the country i come from. Additionally, as a Baltimorian and blue crab lover...nay, obsessor. Thank you for highlighting the sponge crab situation there. I don't mind catching females (sooks as we call them in MD), but sponge crabs are critical in sustaining a healthy population. While Cambodia doesn't have strong policy to enforce the prevention of catching sponge crabs, let's use the most powerful tool we have....SHAME!

[delcatravels]

As a native of Maryland it's weird to see female crabs with eggs attached being harvested for consumption. I would guess they don't care about sustainable practices in Cambodia. It's sad that the next generation of fishermen might not have these populations sustained in the future.

[moosespeak]

My father was a Airborne Ranger and did 3 tours in Vietnam, he'd say he was in Cambodia more than Vietnam. Was able to go back over with him through VA and it was very powerful to see my father get closure decades after he served. Cambodia was so laid back and the people were so amazing.

[Dimss]

I'd like to visit Cambodia sometimes, greeting from Indonesia🇮🇩

[urbestfriend.]

Those dishes look mouthwatering! The thing that i love the most about Cambodia is that the food are cheap and tasty at the same time 😋

[mgmcd]

Marylander here: male crabs only for us. They use She-crab in the Carolina low country, but only for soup.

[jordy]

"It goes beyond a mouth taste"

Such a wordsmith, Sonny 😂

[wazza]

It’s hard to tell poor people to conserve nature when they have hungry mouths to feed, sad reality of life. Sunny and his team always does a great job in explaining culture is a non judgmental type of way. So happy you haven’t sold this product to the food network!

[krazykidk]

The lady with the prawn for only 1$ is amazing!! They looked so good can’t beat that

[stormiesmith]

we need a whole episode of Sonny getting scammed 😂

[Toronto_Golfer]

Any Khmer brothers and sisters here? ❤
