Welsh Food - 4 Things to Eat Taste Test in Cardiff, Wales

- Опубликовано: 3 сен 2017
- Join us at Y Mochyn Du pub in Cardiff, Wales as we explore Welsh Food for the first time sampling 4 different things to eat in this taste test. We started off with local Welsh beer and tea while ordering two different starters, a main dish and dessert to share between the two of us. The 4 different food items we tried were as follows:
1) Cawl (traditional Welsh soup)
2) Welsh Rarebit (melted cheese on sliced toast)
3) Faggots, gravy, mashed potatoes and peas
4) Rhubarb Crumble (sweet dessert with fruit)
All of it was delicious and to be honest the starters were the size of mains and we ended up feeling rather stuffed by the end of the meal. The portions at this pub are very generous.

Welsh Food - 4 Things to Eat in Cardiff, Wales travel and cuisine video transcript:
It is lunchtime here in Cardiff and we found a little pub that is called Y Mochyn Du I think. Welsh is a very complicated language. We've been here like almost a week and we haven't really tried Welsh food yet aside from Welsh cakes so we're like alright it is time to see what Welsh food is all about.
We've been sick and haven't been doing a whole lot.
We ordered two starters, one main, dessert, Sam got a pint. We're going to be sampling all things Welsh. Welsh food. All of it is local this is basically a Welsh food taste test.
Alright Sam, so I'm starting off with a pint. A pint. So this is I think uh Cwrw Y Mochyn Du. This is the local red ale beer and I'm so excited to try this.
And we think Cwrw means bore. It has a picture of a black pig. This is really nice beer. It has that kind of like craft beer taste.
Well, well for our appetizer we're starting off with the National Dish of Wales. We are having Cawl and when Sam ordered this he was like I'll have a bowl of Cawl.
This is kind of like a soup. What is here? Slash stew. I was reading about it online and it can have different ingredients.
So the classic usually has lamb and leeks but it can also have beef and potatoes, carrots like different seasonal vegetables. So yeah, this one has potato and carrots. I don't know if this is lamb or beef yet.
Okay, what is your appetizer? So next up we're having Welsh Rarebit. Not rabbit. Rarebit. Rarebit. I can assure you there is no rabbit in here. No rabbit. Basically it is kind of it looks like a gourmet piece of toast with cheese and bacon. Cheese melted over top.
It can be cheese or a cheese sauce apparently. I'm not sure if it is cheese or a cheese sauce. It could be maybe it is both. And it came with a little side salad and something to dip I think. I'm going to dip it in.
That is so good. The cheese is like it is really it has like kind of a creamy consistency. Mmmm. It is so tasty. You know I read that sometimes it can have Béchamel sauce.
Going in for the Welsh Rarebit not rabbit. Look at the cheese it is just melting off.
The main dish has arrived so this is Welsh Faggots and mushy peas and we have two giant like these are minced meat balls and apparently they have um lamb in them. Over here you can obviously see the mushy peas, you can see the mashed potatoes. Lots of onion gravy.
We were asking the bartender what is the most typical dessert we could order at a Welsh pub? And he was like Rhubarb crumble.
Anyways, on to price point. In total that came to 26 Quid and that included the two drinks, the pint. And the tea. The two appetizers which were more like mains. The main which was like a massive main and then an enormous dessert to share. It was 13 per person and we're leaving very full, very satisfied and we really enjoyed Welsh food and we would highly recommend you to try all of these dishes if you're visiting Wales.
This is part of our Travel in Wales video series showcasing Welsh food, Welsh culture and Welsh cuisine.

Cwrw means beer in Welsh
Ah, that makes sense! Thanks for letting us know :)
i really enjoy the "laughs" of audrey when the camera shows sam to enjoy his meal. that means that she loves you a lot sam..and that is lovely...
Ah, thank you! I sure am a lucky guy I'd say :)
Rhubarb!!! MMMMM! Back in the day we grew it in our garden....Shared with the neighbours, My Dad made Crumble...but us kids...Big "Stalk" of Rhubarb, and sugar in a bag, Dip, Heaven......xxx guys x
Thanks Paul! Ah, we love strawberry rhubarb pie. We often have that in Canada.
Oh oh oh! That whole meal looked sooooo good. I love lamb and also welsh rarebit and anything rhubarb!!! I've had rhubarb several times in London.
Thank you! It was such nice comfort food. We'd definitely go back again.
There is a large Welsh colony in the Argentinean Patagonia...
Wow! That is fascinating. Just reading about it on wikipedia now.
Also lots of people of Welsh extraction in Pennsylvania.
Looks delicious. Been loving your videos of late . Funnily enough I had a bag of welsh rarebit flavour crisps today.
Thank you! Ah, we need to find those crisps and try them :)
Love your videos. You're more authentic than the other travel vloggers.
Thank you very much!
I love hearty, homey food❤️ This looked great.
Thank you! It sure was tasty :)
Really enjoy watching you guys, plz post more videos.
Thank you very much! We'll keep them coming :)
Looks wonderful!!
Thanks! It was :)
Awesome video guys!... thanks for coming to wales!.. just to let you guys know. Cwrw is welsh for beer... and Y mochyn du translates to “The black pig”. Du is pronounced “Dee” and Welsh rarebit or “eggy bread” is literally a piece of bread that has been soaked in raw scrambled eggs then shallow fried in a pan.
Ah, thank you very much! We had such a great time in Wales. Appreciate the explanations. Wishing you well!
Samuel and Audrey - Travel and Food Videos no problem. And you both to. Stay safe ❤️
Welsh rarebit isn't an eggy bread, it's toast with a topping of cheese, beer, mustard and egg yolk mixed in to a topping and then grilled on the toast.
and its mixed with a drop of beer and mustard too! so good
That looked Super YUMMY 😋. 👀📸👍👍👍👍📸
It sure was tasty! Wish we could share with all of you.
All of this looks so good. And now I'm hungry.
Thanks! I so wish we could share.
I'm welsh living in Australia. you're making me home sick! in a good way :)
Thank you! Hope you can visit home again soon and eat all of your favorite things.
That feeling when you find out New South Wales doesn’t have Central Bar or Live Lounge 😂
You guys are one of the best when it comes to food travel and everything, and I am really amazed you don't have a following more than 1 m which you should
Thank you very much! That really means a lot to us. We'll keep working hard to grow our channel :)
You guys make me laugh my friggin socks off!!!!! :p
Hahaha...thank you!
Really enjoyed watching this.
Thank you!
It's nice to be able to taste a variety of food!
Thanks! Totally agree with you :)
Everything looked really good too, I'm glad you didn't do too much research into what goes into faggots as they're mainly offal, usually heart and liver, that's why even though they're quite soft and light in texture they're also quite rich, in North Wales a very similar dish to Cawl is also very popular called Lobscouse which is thought to have originated in the Baltics and is known in the UK for being very popular in Liverpool, interestingly a local café to me has a Hungarian chef who makes what she calls a very authentic Goulash, and it's basically Lobscouse with paprika added, I guess stews are stews and every country has it's own basic and nutritious stew.
Mmm - rhubarb pie! I enjoy how passionate you two are about each bite. I can taste it all through you. :D Wales is on my list. I caught a glimpse across the Bristol Channel from north Devon! :D
Thank you very much Helen! Hope you can visit Wales soon!
@Helen Stratigos That was rhubarb crumble not a rhubarb pie - a pie would have a more solid, smooth finish rather than being...crumbly!
The kind of hearty food to eat it you work outdoors or even walking / hiking in inclement weather.
Ah, exactly! Perfect for that.
As a foodie I enjoyed your video...........great meal. Think I will make it
Generous portions and it looked delicious! Planning a trip myself
Best video ever .
Very good tips.. so Audrey is from Argentina... Sam have like a California accent. I love rhubarb... My family does a recipe call gateau of rhubarb.
Thank you! She's actually from Canada as well but spent a few years in Argentina growing up. Ah, that sounds really tasty! What is in it exactly?
LOOKS DELICIOUS.
Thanks! It was a great meal.
Omaygad,i could finish all of that food by myself to be honest😂😂😂
Yum yum !
Hey you guys are amazing, btw who among you writes all that description it is really a work which I got a check by chance and its really really great work.
Thank you! I (Sam) do most of the filing, typing out of scripts and the video descriptions and seo. Audrey does more hosting and now the video editing and music selection. We split up the tasks quite evenly.
Que increíble.😻
Gracias!
I would asked for a cheese grater and grated it directly into the stew
I like the way you're thinking Dave :)
Dave Warren cheese on stew? Yuk !!
You should try a Sunday Roast dinner using Welsh lamb. Pure heaven!
That sounds amazing! Adding it to our bucket-list :)
@@samuelandaudrey Thanks Sam and Audrey. Having that does what I can only describe as being like "having an orgasm in the mouth" ... Your senses of taste and smell and sight all come together. I could eat it every day for the rest of my life and die happy. You should come to where I live, Shaftesbury in Dorset, described as the prettiest town in England. And it is also where Ridley Scott ( Alien, Blade Runner etc ) started his career and became famous. Here is an 8 minute video about Shaftesbury. And I was wondering, where are you both now? x x x ruclips.net/video/arXd9TXdbCo/видео.html
Audrey's face at 7:19 LOL ! priceless :)
Hahaha
Sam with his dainty little bites lol and Audrey with her big manly bite.
LOL, normally it is the other way around ;)
This is the kind of food I grew up on, not in Wales but Lancaster about 150 miles away. We would come home to a big black pot of mutton stew on the range. This is not exactly cawl but so close. The Black Pig seems like excellent value. Welsh cheese is fantastic and the lamb is the best. A tip...Welsh is phonetic, once you learn the alphabet you can say the words. Grammar however is something else. Cymru am Byth!
Oh, that sounds delicious! Nothing like a big pot of stew especially on a rainy day.
Yummy. Going to Wales this spring.
Very cool to hear Rebecca!
Rebecca were I live here in wales
Nothing beats Pierogi ! ...hey:)
It sure is good!
looks delicious
Thanks! It certainly was and especially big portions...whoa!
Rarebit is made with cheese (obviously) mustard and s rue made with either milk or beer.
Oh, thanks for letting us know ;)
Oooh Sh*t Rhubarb ROCKS! As an ancestral Welshman it warms my heart!
Yummy
Thanks!
You forgot to say "good morning" "good morning" in ur beautiful voice today😊
Hahaha...whoops on our part! A belated good morning in the comments section here :)
"A little less animalistic, maybe?" Hahaha
LOL! Ah, the things we say ;)
Didn't try those,, DID enjoy the Clark pies or "Clarpie" and quite a bit of Brains Beer 👍. We are from Texas and were intrigued on the people who spoke welsh. Don't think they get a lot of Texans visiting. One little girl was like: "that lady talks funny" 😂😂
Ah, cool to hear about your experience! Oh, the Texan accent is so cool...haha Yeah, especially in this pub we noticed quite a few people speaking Welsh. Such a fascinating language.
cymru am byth
Welsh Rarebit is more of a cheese sauce,with mustard,beer or milk amongst other things
Thanks for letting us know!
in welsh rarebit , the cheese has mustard and Worcester sauce on it
Thanks for letting us know Eifon. We're actually visiting some Welsh communities in Argentina right now.
if you didn’t know it’s so good when you dip the bread in the cawl
Oh wow that sounds amazing
Sound like yummy🍜🍜🍝🍝
Thanks Suay! We had some nice comfort food in Wales.
Will you guys visit Tenby beach? Amazing place in south wales.
Unfortunately, we didn't get there. It looks beautiful though.

\
Tenby is in west wales 🤣

Yay soooo happy you did this vid welsh food whoop I’m from living in wales free valleys in my village they do a boar faggot tastes sooo good really meaty compared to the lamb ones lol xxx

Bob appetit!!
Merci!
Welsh food is so Delicious
Couldn't agree with you more Jonas! It totally is!
Samuel loves his beer
I sure do.
Good value for £13. Normally the price you pay for 1 medium pizza.
Thanks! Yeah, it was decent especially considering how much we ate...haha We really enjoyed that pub as it has a nice chilled out atmosphere and really friendly staff.
you guys always do such an awesome job on your videos, i love following you guys and am always excited for the next video, let us know what you think of ours, we would love the feedback :-)
Thank you very much! You guys are doing great. Keep at it :)
I love welsh cake I live in Wales and I can speak Welsh!!!
when they come to argentina I invite you to eat asado
Thank you! That is very kind. Where is your favorite place for asado?
Dip your bread in your Cawl!
Thanks for the tip!
Crumble and melt the block of cheese into the Cawl 👌
Rarebit is close to Croque Monsieur with its béchamel and dijon.
Sorry to hear you haven't been feeling well. I could tell your energy level was a bit lower in this video. Hopefully that stew will get you feeling better.
Ah, thank you! We did end up feeling better after Wales but we were down for the count for a little while ;)
You guys are funny
Thanks!
With the cheese you dip it into the cawl
Sort of meal you need a nap after lol
Most definitely Richard :) LOL
Did you ever tryed salmiakki?
Yeah, I love it! We made a video about that a few years ago :)
Have you ever tried sth that you didn't like?? :P It seems like you like everything you try on your trips!
Oh we definitely have but lately we've been eating things we really like.
Custard in French is called crem onglae which means English cream anyway it was invented in Swansea so it should be Welsh cream
Thanks for letting us know.
It's Creme Anglaise, and where is the proof that custard was invented in Swansea?
@@solatiumz it was invented by a chemist by the name of bird and live in the uplands in Swansea his wife was lactose intolerance so he invented custard for his wife and it's called birds custard
BIRDS custard is fake custard, made so his wife wouldn't miss out. So by that we can see that custard existed before Birds custard. Was the custard in the video actually Birds custard?
Actually Alfred Bird was born in Gloucestershire and lived in Birmingham when he invented the custard. Both a fair few miles from Swansea. Nice try.
You guys are too cute (:
Ah, thank you!
That’s an appetiser? Where’s this pub? 😋
Big portions for an appetiser! It is heading north from the castle.
Just off Cathedral Road towards the Cricket Stadium/Park alongside the Taff river
Yummy! Yummy main dishes!!! I don´t like desserts and sweets!!!
Thanks! We enjoyed the savoury dishes.
cwrw means beer
Hello
How are you ?
the Du part of Mochyn Du is pronounced ‘dee’ :)
Thank you for letting us know!
Samuel and Audrey - Travel and Food Videos you’re welcome! please come back to Wales again soon - I’ll have a list of awesome other foods you could also try!
And it means ‘Black’
@@user-pe9qg3hg3k
Not in North Wales, she nailed the pronunciation.
@@phillipcarlroberts4640 @Phillip Carl Roberts nah, I can see where you're going with it, but in North Wales they don't pronounce the W as harshly. It sounds more a cross between U and W in North Wales, I'm a fluent Welsh speaker and am aware of the differences in accents :)
I live in Carmarthen
My grandfather great grand father spoke it as a kid hard to understand ask grams what did gramma say lol..
Your supost to dip the cheese in the cawl
Thanks for the tip.
It’s ok xxx
Then you went for a nap in the car!
Hahaha...if only we owned one ;)
Am I the only one that eats Rarebit with a knife and fork? Where is the Bara Brith, cockels and laverbread?
:-)
:)
Cwrw means beer and Y mochyn du means «the black pig»
Thanks for letting us know!
Samuel and Audrey - Travel and Food Videos You’re most certainly welcome, how long would the flight be from Montreal to Cardiff?
parrila lo de charly open 24 hs or Los talas del entrerriano
Awesome! Will record these for the future :)
What’s gourmet about toast ? It’s cheese on toast with worstershire sauce
No, it’s rarebit
sorry but i think that you should be very hungry to eat this food
What do you think would be better to try?
i dont know. i will travel in christmas there and gonna search. (i didn't want to insult you with my comment sorry if it sounds like that)
How many clues do you need! Americans live in their own little bubble.
Welsh is a complicated language! Really!? Its the same as any language. Cwrw is beer 🍻
Eat the food don’t play with it
Mochyn = Pig Du = Black
misery
Looks like triditional food with a tourist take same shit happens in my home country
Omg you guys talk so much about being stuffed in every video while actually hardly eating at all! Get stuffed for god's sake! Take huge bites. Be wild! The food is heaven so enjoy it in full! You are trying to look good on camera so much that it hurts to watch...like you're embarassed to look natural.
Hahaha...we'll try to eat more in future videos
The beer is disgusting. Beer should look bright and alive, not cloudy. The rest of the stuff is oay but not a good advert for Wales.
Have you watched our Cardiff guide?
I can't say I have. I live 7 miles from Cardiff so usually watch films from further afield.
Horrible, just horrible, no wonder the Welsh have always appeared more than a little slapstick while three-feet off the ground....this confirms my longstanding suspicion....it's the food I tell you it's the food. My God!!!
welsh is a very complicated language...yeah, and a very ugly one as well
We had fun in Wales. Wish we weren't sick as we could have explored more.
I disagree, it is a beautiful language. Have you ever heard it sung?
What happened to table manners ??
Are they out of style ??
Too gross to watch !
Do yourselves a huge favor
read about table manners.
Perhaps read a complete book about etiquette (manner.).
