I think the combo Joel and Mark Wiens is what I like most, this two guys are having so much fun when they travel .... I agree that Joel on his own isn't the same.
We need not address those who dislike. We shouldn't give them the attention. Sometimes that's why people do it. Let's stay positive like Joel-B and Mark. We are here to enjoy them. 🤗
@@JoelsTastyRide Anytime brother. Wish I could meet you guys some time. Great spirits about you and Mark. I spent time in Japan, Australia and so forth, but that was back in the mid-90s. Blessings bro.
@@JoelsTastyRide Oh, and please don't take offense to me saying "cameraman", I know you're much more than that. I just found (and subscribed to) your page. It's definitely a compliment.
What lovely video with you and Mark!! I've been a long time subscriber of his and was so happy to see your channel!! This place was amazingly beautiful and dishes look so flavorful!! I do enjoy your video style, very calming and informative.
It’s so awesome you have your own channel now!! Had no idea thanks for all the great content keep up the great work and post tons of content to boost your subs!!! Stay safe pal!! Sending a huge shoutout from Canada 🇨🇦
I love a good buddy story ... it good to see you and Mark on the same video . Such a nice thing to do, and recognise the people around us that either keep us safe or enable us to do what we want to do . 👏
You are so right :-) we need to remember also those people who, like you say, are not so fortunate that they can just sit and hide while this virus does it work
Ha, hey John! Hope all is well today! Well, now that someone has finally answered correctly, I can tell you - the reading on the forehead is whats common here, and thats the thing I wanted to show! Different countries are using different methods right now, just wanting to be kinda educational about this little situation (any place we go into, we have to take this head temp. reading)
Love the way you approach the surroundings, foods, people, activities with such sincere gratitude and appreciation. Sending positive vibes back at you Joel.
The security guys were a delight to watch! Such kind people. The lunch looked amazing; but what I really enjoyed was the atmosphere. I could literally sit there all day long. Beautiful!
So happy you recognize this, happy to see you pointing this out :-) one of my favorite things to do always, share fruit with my friends, let alone give such a special fruit as a gift to these awesome guys
Joël and Mark , 2 supermans from you tube !! Phuuw man i love to see your movies, i love Thailand already all my live. Hope to get there soon, Have a Nice day Bro !
Coopdog, I love it, thank you for noticing :). Actually when I was growing up, aside from my school friends, when I was at home I spent at least a small part of every single day hanging out with the guys guarding our gate in Kenya. We lived on a compound (very normal for Nairobi, where break-ins are extremely common), and I always miss hanging out with those guys. Youre right, it is a hard and usually thankless job, I am very happy youve noticed this today :). God bless!
@@JoelsTastyRide Yeah, priceless durian gesture. Nice to hear you have good relationship with your parents too. Keep up the positive interaction vibe (not all is about money)
Joel, I love your calmness when you speak and love Asian food, I'm so glad that Mark Wiens is supporting your food channel. I'm just noticing that you're a very athletic and healthy freak. Love it!
My two favorite foodies!!!!! Getting together with great friends always makes a happy heart. As always, the food and scenery are amazing. Thanks for sharing your love of food and friendship 😀
Booswanger :). Awesome to see you here each time, thanks for the love. Happy heart is a good way to say it, wow - this week here was really SO cool and fun!
I just subscribed. I love love LOVE your style of videos! I had a ticket to Bangkok a few years back and had to cancel because we owned a restaurant. My plan was to go north as quickly as possible. I'm bummed I can't go now, even though I have the time. I was looking into biking around there, so I am SO happy to live vicariously watching your vids. They really are a bright spot in my day. Cheers from Colorado! Glad to see you guys highlighting vegan food - I've been trying to eat healthier too!
Joel and Mark two of my favorite guys on RUclips. It’s such a treat to see you both on your channel. Love it! By the way, you are so thoughtful Joel. 😌❤️😌
Dear Joel, this place is amazing!!! I can imagine to be there with my family and friends and enjoying the food and the quietness! A little piece of paradise! Love, Maike
Hiiiiii Maike :) Always appreciate the messages and so happy to see you watching these glad to watch them, excited even :-) real joy, always :-) have a great day
Hey, Joel... I just started watching your videos. I really enjoy your celebration of Thai food and, especially, your ability to read the Thai menus. I’m still struggling with reading Thai. I am now subscribed and looking forward to seeing you in your next video. 🌴😎👍🏼
Thank you so much! and about the Thai language, youre on the right track - I cant imagine how long it would have taken to get the tones right, the pronunciation close to correct withOUT being able to read and write. Keep it up, it will pay off :)
You have your own channel Joel👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾??? Subbed!! ...you have always been a pop of sunshine on Mark's brilliant food adventures!!..cant wait to watch yours. Do you have an accent Joel?
Wow, thank you AFrobaby, thats an awesome message today!!!! Huge welcome, thanks for watching :). Yes, I am sure I have an accent... where are you from?
@@JoelsTastyRide thanks for warm welcome😃 so far loving the biking tours as well as the food videos !! Im from the UK but expat in france for near 9 years. Are you and your family expats in Thailand? If you've done a Q&A video already, forgive me
Thanks for sharing your awesome visit with Mark and his family ☺️ so awesome to spend time with dear friends/family. The food at Mena looked so yummy 🤤🤤 your an awesome guy for rewarding the workers of your apartment complex. Living with your parents is such a blessing 😌 again thanks for sharing your day be blessed
Hi Joel What a wonderful vid,the area you and Mark's family enjoyed lunch at was so beautiful,serene and peaceful and the food was amazing,made me want to be in Thailand again.You and Mark are very generous with each other concerning the vids,and your approach to the commentary is what I enjoy the most,looking forward to the next one,stay well,oh Mark's face mask is a bomb cheers.
Joel , I had an idea from watching you hand a durian to the guard , and to see how happy both of them were . The idea is maybe you and Mark and maybe some other known RUclips celebrities in Thailand could make some food for a local hospital and provide it for the staff ? One video you could have both you and mark making the food then a part 2 dishing it all out ? Of course in a Covid safe manner. What do you think ? I definitely think it’ll get lots of views , especially if you put it on both channels.
That is awesome :-) hey thank you for your other message as well, I did it, I appreciate the support. I also appreciate the idea!! I won’t go into detail but I can tell you honestly man, the amount of different ideas like this that Mark pays for it with his own money is gigantic. I’m his best friend and I don’t even know how much he does. He is more generous than anybody ever knows. And that is why he is the best
Joel Bruner of course , no doubting both of you are gigantic in what you do, it comes across that both of you do lots for the community. I think it’ll be great for both your subscribers to see you both at work doing some awesome community stuff and allow us to see people enjoying what you do, if that makes sense ? It’s like when watching you give that durian to the guards , it’s heart warming , and watching Mark go to rural communities and give us an insight to others and we get to see them having a good time with Mark and share their life with Mark , it’s heart warming , if you know what I mean ?
Thailand looks a truly beautiful place, I can see why you love it so much. Even though I hate hot weather (I'm British, our natural habitat is about 10 degrees and rain) I must definitely make a trip there.
Greetings Joel and God bless! Thank you for loading a new video and we're enjoying them. Wow! This place looks awesome! It's a place of retreat and to relax! The food looks awesome and super healthy. I just saw Mark's recent videos in the city where you live and in Miami where you and Mark enjoyed those Cuban delights which we also eat here in Puerto Rico. Cheers and regards to Li.
Iván, so super cool :). Happy seeing you here, great to see you following all these videos right now. That trip with Mark (and David welcoming us all so well!!), was amazing, one of the best 48-hour trips ever I can tell you that for sure!! Have a wonderful day, much love to you in Puerto Rico today!
i've been also seeing you with Mark Weins most of the time..you really are indeed a soft-spoken guy Joel!!.. send my regards to Mark Weins!! you are doing a great job Joel!! ... drooling out here with the food you ate.. subscribed!!looking forward for more!! truly an awesome guy!.. one of the best!!.. keep it up!!
how is it that i'm JUST NOW discovering your channel! Been a huge fan since I discovered you through Mark Wiens. Can't wait to catch up on your videos.
Wow! A long awaited meet-up of the two Masters!! I am so thrilled to see this Vlog and can’t wait for the follow-up!! I guess I’ll go check out Mark’s channel now!!😄 Great oneJoel❗️
Joel your voice is very calming man! keep it up :) You just gained a subscriber. I have been subscribed to mark for the past 8 years now...excited to follow your journey
WOW Raunak, thats basically the same time that I have been a subscriber of Mark!!!! That is amazing, dude you must have been one of the very first.... I am honored to have you joining me, supporting me, ah thats so cool. Ok ok, well, gonna have to keep up the good content, you are familiar with Mark so I wont let you down :)
Hi Joel - I see that you have been truly blessed and having Mark W. visit you must be like a homecoming! Please pray for my Wife Renee who is recovering from a brain hemorrhage suffered back on July 8th. She is recovering slowly at UPMC Presbyterian Hospital in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania USA. Today was a day God smiled on her - her cranial drain was removed and she is ever so close to beginning her PT rehab. Thanks be to God !
Hi! Joel😊 was a nice place you’ve visited! My family live in Chiangmai too. I definitely love to go visit this place with my family. Thank you for sharing😊
Meena restaurant is exquisite and would be a true pleasure. This is my first time watching your channel. I have seen you travel, with Mark, for a while. You are a great friend and a kind person.
Well hello Barbra, It is my pleasure to recognize a real supporter, and I thank you so much for taking the time to find my own small channel today. Blessings to you, thanks for taking the time to send me some great words. Hope you enjoy this video, hope you enjoy many more :-) all the best
Emily, WOW. Now thats a beautiful message. Thank you, really thank you so much, I am honored. Thanks for the well wishes, I hope things are going as well for you as they can right now. Send me a message about any more videos, any questions, very happy to hear from you, happy to welcome you today :)
Literally have not smiled so much during a video. He is so genuine and you can tell he is just so grateful for the life he is living. Love the videos Joel!!
Selena - wow. Definitely one of the BEST comments ever. I sat here for just a moment appreciating that - "how lucky am I to think that someone is just sitting there smiling for the length of this video?" that is just magic, thats so lovely (all the best adjectives here ______- hahaha). Much love today, hope your weekend is treating you wonderfully, hope you are STILL smiling also reading this :) !!!!!!!!
Oh Joel! This place is gorgeous and serene. I live in the Mojave desert in Southern California and I can imagine staying here for a day or two or longer if they have accommodations. This is paradise!!! 💚💚💚 I love how rustic it is. The food looks amazing and that rice...whoa. the most colorful layers of yumminess!!!
Such a beautiful tour of this stunning restaurant community. We really appreciate the way you describe the amenities and food. Always fun to see you and Mark and his family together ❤ God's truly blessed you with your own unique video direction perspective. Also, there's a gentle flow that never feels slow, always compelling:) Sending Blessings, James and Kim
THIS IS AMAZING! God bless you both! It is amazing seeing you guys doing this especially awesome thing! CYCLING AND FOOD! OOWOWOW! Hello all the way from PA usa! Keep up the great work! God bless yall!
Joel, I really enjoy your content and appreciate your calm, friendly and sincere manner! I visited Thailand a couple of years ago and your videos are bringing back memories and inspiring me to go back and explore more, especially the countryside, which looks stunning. Best wishes from the UK!
Awesome, thank you! Lewis thats a great message. Where did you visit when you were here? Happy to see you know about Thailand, and yes the countryside here.... SO thankful that its changing slowly, at least there are still many things that (probably) wont ever change here, least of all is the CHILL and calm spirit that Thai people seem to do so well :). Have a good one today, big high five across the ocean from Thailand to UK!!
Incredible guy. So humble, polite and respectful. Watched him for years with Mark so about time he branches out and did something unique himself. Great work Joel. Keep it up my good man 😊🙏🏾
MK :) I’m smiling, at first of course I appreciate the support it is awesome, supporting me for years wow that is really cool. I have to tell you though, I hope you learn through the videos as well, I have been traveling around Thailand mostly alone for more than 11 years - just now making videos starting this year :-). I’m already old!!
Joel Bruner I’m trying to learn and pick up as much Thai as possible. You speak it very well. I highly doubt you’re older than I am but great content either way and especially when you visit that local organic fruit farmer. The grapes and lychee naturally growing on the trees. Never seen that before!! Very unique. And that huge jack fruit. Wow!!! You must have the best time eating healthy tasty foods 😉😊 I keep telling my family about your adventures and they’re as intrigued as I am 🤣 keep safe Joel and enjoy life 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
So happy to see you and Mark together again, you both have such a sweet humble soul, God bless you both and cnt wait for more vlogs. Would love to hear more stories about you and mark living together.
@@savinphann3 Thats a good place to be, of course right now, but I really think thats the best place we can ever be :). Thats how were made, although the TV may tell us differently, God is infinite and so we should be in the present (as much as possible) as well - love your attitude :)
Hey Bro!!....what a fantastic, first class video this is, wow!...love it absolutely❤❤❤ I think it's the best one you've made..., nice to see Mark.... but am especially gobsmacked by the entrance to, and the beauty of, the restaurant. Oasis is an understatement...it's therapy for the soul, man! Your video skills are improving by leaps and bounds with each one, so keep them coming whenever you can.😃
Pike - im Honored, and Humbled! Big ups man, respect Pike, respect, you always give me the overwhelmingly good vibes and support. Thank you. Its awesome. Yeah about the camera work, I guess its all in the experience, just need to go through the months of mistakes, slip-ups... haha (and thank YOU for being patient!!!!). Much love man. Happy Sunday (got to go to church today for the first time since February!!!! It was awesome!!!!)
Tara, I imagine heaven will definitely include many corners like this :). Art Culture, Tasty Food, Fun with Friends, New Flavors on every plate... probably more things we cant even imagine as well :). have a great one Tara!
Congratulations Joel on your new channel! It's nice to see you, Mark, Ying and Micah together again, though it's kinda odd that you are hosting it! Haha! I'm sure I'll get used to it soon! Love the friendship and the support you have between you and Mark. Keep safe!
Jey Joel, it is awesome seeing yourself and Mark together again. Being the rice nut I am, that rice dish with the five colours blew my mind, and again your interaction with people, this time the security guys at your home was amazing. Stay blessed Joel.
Hi Lizzy! This restaurant really was something special, it felt like I was eating in a small museum ha ha :-) have a beautiful day today, thanks again for the support
Hi Julie :) Yes this restaurant is quite a gift, I haven’t been back yet but I could have gone back immediately the next day :-) have a wonderful day today, thanks for taking the time to write
I missed thailand so much. thank you for made such a lovely clip about food, and how lovely of the weather there. 👍🏻 Love the way that you are so friendly and very kind for security team, not many people offer them food like you do. Jai Dee mak mak ka Apart from you can speak thai can you speak northern thai language dai mai ka?
Glad you enjoyed it Nitchanan, I am happy seeing a message from you today :). So you are away from Thailand, where do you live now? I only know a few dozen words of Northern language (I know a good amount of Esaan though :). I love Esaan...). I will work on it, thanks for the reminder :-D
I lived in uk 🇬🇧 since 2006 usually visit my mum in Bangkok and grand in Chiangmai every year.... but because of the pandemic I’m stuck in London this year 😂 I missed somtum badly 🤤lol
The amazing thing about RUclips is, that you don't have to be a pro to make grate videos, you make great videos Joel, thanks for sharing part of your life with us, I enjoy watching it.
I appreciate that! Very much actually, thank you for watching, thanks for taking the time to write me honestly, and support me (even without any hints of professionalism on my part :) haha)
Omg Joel you have a RUclips channel!!!! I should’ve known! I can't wait to watch all your videos this weekend! Stay safe! Sending love from the Philippines! 💕
Dear Joel; I want to thank you for this video, and for two main reasons: First, seeing you and Mark again in the same video was a treat. There is a great chemistry between you guys, and it's fun to watch. Secondly, it is such a rare occasion for me to truly enjoy your culinary adventures because this time you showed us a wonderful vegan restaurant and great looking vegan dishes. As a vegan, you would maybe appreciate that it is sometime difficult for me to watch all these animals cooked.... but today, in this video, there was magic! pure magic of colour, sound and taste; I actually felt I was there! So thank you - and Mark - very much for taking us there. It was an absolute delight, and I hope you will show us more vegan places and specially dedicated vegan trips in the future ;-) Have fun!
Adrian - this is TOO cool :) :) on that note I will make several more, many many more videos of meat-free meals. I usually eat meat-free actually, just not when Im with Mark :). haha, BUT thats not because he loves meat, its only because of these videos really. Now that he has become more food-conscious this year though, we will both be making many more vegetarian restaurant videos, so - Im stoked to know that youre always excited for these!
It is another impressive video. Feeling refreshed in nature And healthy food that is very appetizing. Feeling happy to see you and Mark together again. God bless you guys😊
Joel, I didn't know you had your own channel! I've watched you with Mark for so long and had no idea. So glad I came across your channel ❤️. I really enjoy watching you speak.
Anna I think you very much for taking the time to find us, very nice words, thanks for the great support and I hope you enjoy more of the videos I’m working on right now :-) much love
Greetings Joel! So great to see the 2 of you together again! Must have that cup of coffee! I'm a big time coffee connoisseur too. Thanks for another great video and more teaching! Sending love from Maine!
Awesome seeing the quick comment (so happy to see people immediately liking the new video - its a special feeling!!). I would love to visit Maine and cheers a 3rd cup of coffee with you, Ive always wanted to visit Maine (by motorcycle for some reason, but now of course, I would do it by bike :) ). Have a great day Sue!
Wow, thanks! Awesome to see you here Kei! Mark actually edits most of his own videos (amazing), I help actually with the blog websites. Have a great day today! Thanks for the message
What a great concept for a restaurant the natural wood, trees, water, and they make their own furniture. Joel did you notice the tree made into a bench with the roots...awesome, being at one with nature while enjoying your meal, love love seeing the entire family together you, Mark, Ying, Micah. Very thoughtful Joel showing the officers appreciation, safe travels guys ❤
The nice moment when you share durian ... fans of durian too here. And I just want to say good luck and success for your channel, enjoy watching it all the time. Greeting from Belgium.
SO COOL To imagine you enjoying Darien in Belgium :-) that is wonderful! And yes it is a great treat to be able to enjoy fresh and ripe fruits like this with my friends here... It’s so cool to have you watching!
Thanks for the heads-up for those with Trypophobia, Joel. That was truly kind. I didn't catch on fast enough because I was dreaming of that passion fruit and ended up seeing the 'holey' fruit for a split second 😂
Haha Wini, oh noooo :). Thanks still for telling me, I appreciate that (Ill try to be even more clear next time!). Much love, thanks for watching! and I hope you find some passion fruit soon!!!!!
@@JoelsTastyRide you were perfectly clear 😂 I'm just a bit of a dreamer. Thank you for always being so gracious with replies! You are truly being a light in a dark world, Joel!
Always stoked to see your name here, and you always leave such awesome words about everything :). Yes, this was a great meal, a great day (by the way, things turn around significantly (but still awesome!) for part 2 :). haha just wait til you see the second restaurant...)
Hello, thanks for your kind words, Joel you have to for give me. I am kind of New to the video. Talking about the Fruits I love fruits. Right Now in to fruits season in States . We have good weather this year. So we have lots of fruits for the season.
I'm glad to see Joel. I like his personality. It's honest and his curiosity is cool. A good eye for color .The more he does, the better he'll get. Like anyone else.
Hi Joel! Hope you are well. I have always been watching Mark's video and I have always seen you with him. Never knew you have your own channel. Now, I'm watching all your videos. You are awesome. You have the clearest enunciation and very well modulated voice. All the best! 💜

Stay safe healthy and blessed 🙏
I don’t know where all the dislike is from. Joel is such a ray of sunshine!
Agree
I think the combo Joel and Mark Wiens is what I like most, this two guys are having so much fun when they travel .... I agree that Joel on his own isn't the same.
@@ratanggatrading5448 same here. Whenever i watch mark wiens vlogs i always look for Joel. Same goes to Joel's vlogs. I mean i love them both.
We need not address those who dislike. We shouldn't give them the attention. Sometimes that's why people do it.
Let's stay positive like Joel-B and Mark. We are here to enjoy them.

He is trying to make money too.
Joel seems like the Bob Ross of cameramen. haha. Soothing when he speaks and direct sentences. Refreshing.
Hahahaha thats gold cuz that feel like the perfect description!

What an amazing video by Joel again..You make me miss Thailand so much.. this place will be in my bucket list for sure.. thanks Joel.
Sharing with the guards was an awesome act. Your riddle has me baffled! I can't infer anything from the circumstance of the situation!

I definitely think it’ll get lots of views , especially if you put it on both channels.
That is awesome :-) hey thank you for your other message as well, I did it, I appreciate the support. I also appreciate the idea!! I won’t go into detail but I can tell you honestly man, the amount of different ideas like this that Mark pays for it with his own money is gigantic. I’m his best friend and I don’t even know how much he does. He is more generous than anybody ever knows. And that is why he is the best
Joel Bruner of course , no doubting both of you are gigantic in what you do, it comes across that both of you do lots for the community. I think it’ll be great for both your subscribers to see you both at work doing some awesome community stuff and allow us to see people enjoying what you do, if that makes sense ? It’s like when watching you give that durian to the guards , it’s heart warming , and watching Mark go to rural communities and give us an insight to others and we get to see them having a good time with Mark and share their life with Mark , it’s heart warming , if you know what I mean ?
Thailand looks a truly beautiful place, I can see why you love it so much.
Even though I hate hot weather (I'm British, our natural habitat is about 10 degrees and rain) I must definitely make a trip there.
Hey!!! I'm so happy I got to your channel. I like your style here and your voiceovers. The mic picks up really well.
Miko! I am working on it thank you so much, love the support, hope you have a wonderful day today :-) all the best
Greetings Joel and God bless! Thank you for loading a new video and we're enjoying them. Wow! This place looks awesome! It's a place of retreat and to relax! The food looks awesome and super healthy. I just saw Mark's recent videos in the city where you live and in Miami where you and Mark enjoyed those Cuban delights which we also eat here in Puerto Rico. Cheers and regards to Li.
Iván, so super cool :). Happy seeing you here, great to see you following all these videos right now. That trip with Mark (and David welcoming us all so well!!), was amazing, one of the best 48-hour trips ever I can tell you that for sure!! Have a wonderful day, much love to you in Puerto Rico today!
@@JoelsTastyRide amen! Have a wonderful day!

I am honored to have you joining me, supporting me, ah thats so cool. Ok ok, well, gonna have to keep up the good content, you are familiar with Mark so I wont let you down :)
Hi Joel - I see that you have been truly blessed and having Mark W. visit you must be like a homecoming! Please pray for my Wife Renee who is recovering from a brain hemorrhage suffered back on July 8th. She is recovering slowly at UPMC Presbyterian Hospital in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania USA. Today was a day God smiled on her - her cranial drain was removed and she is ever so close to beginning her PT rehab. Thanks be to God !
Hi! Joel😊 was a nice place you’ve visited! My family live in Chiangmai too. I definitely love to go visit this place with my family. Thank you for sharing😊
Meena restaurant is exquisite and would be a true pleasure. This is my first time watching your channel. I have seen you travel, with Mark, for a while. You are a great friend and a kind person.
Well hello Barbra, It is my pleasure to recognize a real supporter, and I thank you so much for taking the time to find my own small channel today. Blessings to you, thanks for taking the time to send me some great words. Hope you enjoy this video, hope you enjoy many more :-) all the best

🚲👨🏫
Loved this. The music was perfect. The history, and the area so beautiful.
Food looked delish.
Fantastic Job. So glad I checked out your site.
Literally have not smiled so much during a video. He is so genuine and you can tell he is just so grateful for the life he is living. Love the videos Joel!!
Selena - wow. Definitely one of the BEST comments ever. I sat here for just a moment appreciating that - "how lucky am I to think that someone is just sitting there smiling for the length of this video?" that is just magic, thats so lovely (all the best adjectives here ______- hahaha). Much love today, hope your weekend is treating you wonderfully, hope you are STILL smiling also reading this :) !!!!!!!!
Oh Joel! This place is gorgeous and serene. I live in the Mojave desert in Southern California and I can imagine staying here for a day or two or longer if they have accommodations. This is paradise!!! 💚💚💚 I love how rustic it is. The food looks amazing and that rice...whoa. the most colorful layers of yumminess!!!
Fantastic videos great to see you with Mark what a bonus and what a treat you given us on your video
Such a beautiful tour of this stunning restaurant community. We really appreciate the way you describe the amenities and food. Always fun to see you and Mark and his family together ❤
God's truly blessed you with your own unique video direction perspective.
Also, there's a gentle flow that never feels slow, always compelling:)
Sending Blessings, James and Kim
THIS IS AMAZING! God bless you both! It is amazing seeing you guys doing this especially awesome thing! CYCLING AND FOOD! OOWOWOW! Hello all the way from PA usa! Keep up the great work! God bless yall!
Hello from Cambodia 🇰🇭
Joel, I really enjoy your content and appreciate your calm, friendly and sincere manner! I visited Thailand a couple of years ago and your videos are bringing back memories and inspiring me to go back and explore more, especially the countryside, which looks stunning. Best wishes from the UK!
Awesome, thank you! Lewis thats a great message. Where did you visit when you were here? Happy to see you know about Thailand, and yes the countryside here.... SO thankful that its changing slowly, at least there are still many things that (probably) wont ever change here, least of all is the CHILL and calm spirit that Thai people seem to do so well :). Have a good one today, big high five across the ocean from Thailand to UK!!
Incredible guy. So humble, polite and respectful. Watched him for years with Mark so about time he branches out and did something unique himself. Great work Joel. Keep it up my good man 😊🙏🏾
MK :) I’m smiling, at first of course I appreciate the support it is awesome, supporting me for years wow that is really cool. I have to tell you though, I hope you learn through the videos as well, I have been traveling around Thailand mostly alone for more than 11 years - just now making videos starting this year :-). I’m already old!!
Joel Bruner I’m trying to learn and pick up as much Thai as possible. You speak it very well. I highly doubt you’re older than I am but great content either way and especially when you visit that local organic fruit farmer. The grapes and lychee naturally growing on the trees. Never seen that before!! Very unique. And that huge jack fruit. Wow!!! You must have the best time eating healthy tasty foods 😉😊 I keep telling my family about your adventures and they’re as intrigued as I am 🤣 keep safe Joel and enjoy life 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
So happy to see you and Mark together again, you both have such a sweet humble soul, God bless you both and cnt wait for more vlogs. Would love to hear more stories about you and mark living together.
Finally, a dream come true for me. 1st time to see Mark collab with Joel's channel..😎💪
I am so loving the brotherhood Joel and Mark
Are they brother?????
Savin! Great to see your name, I hope youre well, I hope youve been well! Have a great day today :) :)
Joel I am doing fantastic just living life and taking each day in
@@savinphann3 Thats a good place to be, of course right now, but I really think thats the best place we can ever be :). Thats how were made, although the TV may tell us differently, God is infinite and so we should be in the present (as much as possible) as well - love your attitude :)
Joel Your positive spirit is contagious and keep motivating people like you do
Subscribed! I didn't know you had your own channel. Best of luck for you and Mark. I'll binge your videos later. 😁
Si! Huge welcome, great surprise today, wishing you the best
Hey Bro!!....what a fantastic, first class video this is, wow!...love it absolutely❤❤❤ I think it's the best one you've made..., nice to see Mark.... but am especially gobsmacked by the entrance to, and the beauty of, the restaurant. Oasis is an understatement...it's therapy for the soul, man! Your video skills are improving by leaps and bounds with each one, so keep them coming whenever you can.😃
Pike - im Honored, and Humbled! Big ups man, respect Pike, respect, you always give me the overwhelmingly good vibes and support. Thank you. Its awesome. Yeah about the camera work, I guess its all in the experience, just need to go through the months of mistakes, slip-ups... haha (and thank YOU for being patient!!!!). Much love man. Happy Sunday (got to go to church today for the first time since February!!!! It was awesome!!!!)
@@JoelsTastyRide Thumbs up on church we're still doing online church.
A corner of heaven must be like this!! Beautiful!
Tara, I imagine heaven will definitely include many corners like this :). Art Culture, Tasty Food, Fun with Friends, New Flavors on every plate... probably more things we cant even imagine as well :). have a great one Tara!
Congratulations Joel on your new channel! It's nice to see you, Mark, Ying and Micah together again, though it's kinda odd that you are hosting it! Haha! I'm sure I'll get used to it soon! Love the friendship and the support you have between you and Mark. Keep safe!
Jey Joel, it is awesome seeing yourself and Mark together again. Being the rice nut I am, that rice dish with the five colours blew my mind, and again your interaction with people, this time the security guys at your home was amazing. Stay blessed Joel.
Hi joel! What a lovely video. The place is stunning and the food are divine. 🥰 take care!
Hi Lizzy! This restaurant really was something special, it felt like I was eating in a small museum ha ha :-) have a beautiful day today, thanks again for the support
Great work man.. Awesome gesture towards the security people.. And it's really good to see u n mark in one frame.. Keep up the great work buddy.
Everything is pretty right from the menu pictures, the colourful foods, through to the surrounding landscape.
Hi Julie :) Yes this restaurant is quite a gift, I haven’t been back yet but I could have gone back immediately the next day :-) have a wonderful day today, thanks for taking the time to write
im glad that i get to follow your adventures. really looking forward to this
Javier, you are awesome, thank you SO much also for sharing your own time with me!!! Much appreciated.
I missed thailand so much. thank you for made such a lovely clip about food, and how lovely of the weather there. 👍🏻
Love the way that you are so friendly and very kind for security team, not many people offer them food like you do. Jai Dee mak mak ka
Apart from you can speak thai can you speak northern thai language dai mai ka?
Glad you enjoyed it Nitchanan, I am happy seeing a message from you today :). So you are away from Thailand, where do you live now?
I only know a few dozen words of Northern language (I know a good amount of Esaan though :). I love Esaan...). I will work on it, thanks for the reminder :-D
I lived in uk 🇬🇧 since 2006 usually visit my mum in Bangkok and grand in Chiangmai every year.... but because of the pandemic I’m stuck in London this year 😂 I missed somtum badly 🤤lol
The amazing thing about RUclips is, that you don't have to be a pro to make grate videos, you make great videos Joel, thanks for sharing part of your life with us, I enjoy watching it.
I appreciate that! Very much actually, thank you for watching, thanks for taking the time to write me honestly, and support me (even without any hints of professionalism on my part :) haha)
good to see you both together again, but THIS time its on JOELS channel hehe, take care and god bless Joel :)
Mark Wien my idol
More to come! Thanks for watching Szlabey, thats awesome, I am happy you took the time to write me - appreciate it!
@@JoelsTastyRide I watch and support you and mark for almost 4 years now, you guys are amazing, one day i hope to travel to thailand :)
That was very nice for you to reward guards with a small gift that they would enjoy. May God bless your travels, from a new subscriber.
Omg Joel you have a RUclips channel!!!! I should’ve known! I can't wait to watch all your videos this weekend! Stay safe! Sending love from the Philippines! 💕
Joel, great to see you guys together! will definitely visit this place later this year ...☺
Dear Joel; I want to thank you for this video, and for two main reasons: First, seeing you and Mark again in the same video was a treat. There is a great chemistry between you guys, and it's fun to watch. Secondly, it is such a rare occasion for me to truly enjoy your culinary adventures because this time you showed us a wonderful vegan restaurant and great looking vegan dishes. As a vegan, you would maybe appreciate that it is sometime difficult for me to watch all these animals cooked.... but today, in this video, there was magic! pure magic of colour, sound and taste; I actually felt I was there! So thank you - and Mark - very much for taking us there. It was an absolute delight, and I hope you will show us more vegan places and specially dedicated vegan trips in the future ;-) Have fun!
Adrian - this is TOO cool :) :) on that note I will make several more, many many more videos of meat-free meals. I usually eat meat-free actually, just not when Im with Mark :). haha, BUT thats not because he loves meat, its only because of these videos really. Now that he has become more food-conscious this year though, we will both be making many more vegetarian restaurant videos, so - Im stoked to know that youre always excited for these!
@@JoelsTastyRide So excited, can't wait!!! :-) Thank you Joel, God bless you ;-)
Thank you Joel. Hope to join you at Rice Based Cuisine Restaurant in 2021.
I love how you appreciate the hard work of others. You brought them so much joy. keep up the great work!
Wow Love your videos and keep them coming. I can't wait to see where you take us and the different foods you try looks so delicious 😋.
Lottie!! Thank you thank you :-) also excited to visit new places and actually hoping to do a lot of volunteer work as well
It is another impressive video. Feeling refreshed in nature And healthy food that is very appetizing. Feeling happy to see you and Mark together again. God bless you guys😊
Yahoo! Always looking for your name now Myzetra, you rock! Thanks again for the positive vibes :). always!!!
Joel Bruner Ya🌟anytime 😊😊😊
Knocked it out off the park it seems every video is better then the last one great work god bless cant wait for you for I live video.
Wow, thank you! Lawrence thats awesome, I am excited as well, feeding off of these great words! Cheers :)
Joel, I didn't know you had your own channel! I've watched you with Mark for so long and had no idea. So glad I came across your channel ❤️. I really enjoy watching you speak.
Anna I think you very much for taking the time to find us, very nice words, thanks for the great support and I hope you enjoy more of the videos I’m working on right now :-) much love
Greetings Joel! So great to see the 2 of you together again! Must have that cup of coffee! I'm a big time coffee connoisseur too. Thanks for another great video and more teaching! Sending love from Maine!
Awesome seeing the quick comment (so happy to see people immediately liking the new video - its a special feeling!!). I would love to visit Maine and cheers a 3rd cup of coffee with you, Ive always wanted to visit Maine (by motorcycle for some reason, but now of course, I would do it by bike :) ). Have a great day Sue!
No offence i thought you were mark wiens editor but you are just awesome good videos man keep them up !
Wow, thanks! Awesome to see you here Kei! Mark actually edits most of his own videos (amazing), I help actually with the blog websites. Have a great day today! Thanks for the message
What a great concept for a restaurant the natural wood, trees, water, and they make their own furniture. Joel did you notice the tree made into a bench with the roots...awesome, being at one with nature while enjoying your meal, love love seeing the entire family together you, Mark, Ying, Micah. Very thoughtful Joel showing the officers appreciation, safe travels guys ❤
So pure video.. natural and fantastic
I'm loving these videos. Keep them coming! Peace✌
Hi, another great video. The tri color rice look colorful amazingly colorful.
Your best vid yet Joel. Great job.
The nice moment when you share durian ... fans of durian too here. And I just want to say good luck and success for your channel, enjoy watching it all the time. Greeting from Belgium.
SO COOL To imagine you enjoying Darien in Belgium :-) that is wonderful! And yes it is a great treat to be able to enjoy fresh and ripe fruits like this with my friends here... It’s so cool to have you watching!
@@JoelsTastyRide ...and guess where the durian I ate here come from ?....Thailand🤗🤗. I wish I could visit Thailand someday...love their food !!
Thanks for the heads-up for those with Trypophobia, Joel. That was truly kind. I didn't catch on fast enough because I was dreaming of that passion fruit and ended up seeing the 'holey' fruit for a split second 😂
Haha Wini, oh noooo :). Thanks still for telling me, I appreciate that (Ill try to be even more clear next time!). Much love, thanks for watching! and I hope you find some passion fruit soon!!!!!
@@JoelsTastyRide you were perfectly clear 😂 I'm just a bit of a dreamer. Thank you for always being so gracious with replies! You are truly being a light in a dark world, Joel!
Joel, Mark and vegan food: 3 of my favourite things in one awesome video! Now my day is perfect 😄
Always stoked to see your name here, and you always leave such awesome words about everything :). Yes, this was a great meal, a great day (by the way, things turn around significantly (but still awesome!) for part 2 :). haha just wait til you see the second restaurant...)
