stopped at this restaurant the area in bangkok is called bangna you would never know you're just like a stone's throw away from the massive highway and then this is just a hidden gem a secret garden of the best seafood and so we came here we had a dinner we met pinot was the owner he is a fisher he specializes he curates he is a purveyor of the best highest quality seafood and that meal was

and really help the video out so thank you in advance for clicking thumbs up [Music] we're still discussing the order he can yes hello [Laughter] [Music] oh one of the things that he specializes in is called which is a seafood sauce raw frozen crab [Music] come on [Music] hopefully i mean part of the recipe part of the process is they're frozen in juices and so the first step is to actually put them under running water uh to release the ice around them ensuring that the crab both the meat and the eggs on the inside are ice cream turn into ice cream frozen crap this kitchen is absolutely awesome and in the meantime now they're gonna fillet they're gonna cut they're gonna part out the giant grouper white yeah so a 40 kilo giant grouper this is some of the best fish meat for its firmness you know you're going to cut it into pieces that you the the different whoa there's some green liquid coming out of it look at the fish that's the liver yes oh my god [Music] [Music] okay oh that's massive that's like a 10 kilo fillet it's so huge this is so exciting so one fish you will get two sheep and each sheep will wear like two kilos oh that's the cheek or the better of the sheep the champ and he said in one cheek you get three texture different textures he said you have to try and you know why people like try to get this piece oh it's high demand piece highest demand of the whole group the cheek that's that the sheep and in one pieces also in one piece here the texture will be brown and here i will be like straight come on the biggest cheek i've ever seen a one and a half kilo cheek and so that completes the entire process of parting out the grouper taking up an entire table every part and again they're gonna use every single part and i think we're gonna eat quite a few of the different parts too tonight for dinner tonight we had to order the jungle curry and this time we got crab jungle curry i've never had crab jungle curry you know the dam jungle curry is made with an assortment of different meats like deer but crab jungle curry next level [Music] [Music] oh [Music] oh man she is awesome he first deep fried the crab um and then she stirred it fried it up with literally an entire bowl full of uh green peppercorns garlic chilies and kefir lime leaves oh man the aroma is just out of this world and that just looks insane [Music] so [Music] okay yeah oh man okay shout out to all the staff here they are incredible so cool and i just cannot even contain myself anymore we gotta get back to the table and this is seafood insanity [Music] yeah this one is very special [Music] [Applause] [Music] all of the different organs fried with garlic i think yeah never heard of anybody oh wow oh wow oh wow this is the fish liver and this one is the fish moth the swim bladder a chewy texture but almost like cartilage incredible mama this one okay we gotta have this next the the jungle curry with crab have you ever seen it before if you don't know or this is the only book only place yeah and look at the size of that crab huge you can smell that curry paste that she added in there all of the different finger root i'll show you the size of the crepe yeah and when we ate this a couple days ago it was insanely spicy [Music] [Laughter] that's one of the better versions of donut you ever have and you know you know what's amazing okay so giant these are the giant tiger shrimp which were deep fried look at the size of that so they deep fried them first put them onto a plate and then she poured over a hot oil solution and then poured over crunchy crispy garlics sip completely okay just fell apart with the head but that is [Music] meaty [Music] nothing overcooked okay the muscularity of that and i got the tamily in that bite with the fragrance of that crispy garlic [Music] [Music] so this is the grouper the giant grouper look at the size of those pieces and the thickness of that skin and the skin is some of the best part of it look at this the cleanness of the fish too okay i'll just try the soup first that soup is just incredible it's so unbelievably clean and just so pure like only you taste the fish skin broth then you take a piece of the boiled blanched fish and you dip it into the fermented bean garlic sauce with ginger i believe [Music] it's the texture of meat that's so unbelievably firm and then you have all that like the skin is literally gelatin it's like jelly oh the texture of the freshness the firmness is not on another level and then just partnered with that garlic fermented bean umami sauce [Music] this is one of the best fish meat with the sauce that i ever had [Music] the freshest giant grouper this is what he's most famous for it's the name of the restaurant ice cream frozen crab with seafood sauce wow the sweetness of the crab meat and it just melts in your mouth and then you've got the rich yolkiness of the rope and then contrasted by the sweet and sour taste of that sauce the chilies the raw chilies the raw garlic just straight up crab ice cream it looks so simple yeah but you have to try it the cabbage the cabbage just the cabbage with them we've got a full table of seafood but everybody is telling me how good the cabbage is that i haven't even tried yet they're all they're all groaning at the cabbage and i can't wait to try the cabbage now [Music] oh wow yes i think the key here is that it's just stir fried perfectly so it's just crunchy and juicy shrimp paste in there giving an umami and a garlicky taste perfectly prepared [Music] wow this is the giant pen shell which they've made hong kong style so sliced up the pen shell with mung bean noodles with garlic a bunch of garlic oh i think there's both uh kind of raw or stir-fried garlic and also toasted fried garlic in hong kong you often get this with the razor clams wow that is spectacular [Music] the pen shell it tastes like a scallop almost and then you've got the the mung bean noodles and so much garlic so many dimensions of garlic in there [Music] oh wow that is one of the best jungle curries in thailand unexplainable flavor and sweetness of that crab i think actually we can say this one of the best restaurant in bangkok yeah i agree one of the best restaurants in bangkok [Music] i'm shocked actually shocked i can't even fully express myself it's time for the crack yeah okay look at the size wow
