My dad (a chef de cuisine) loved Ratatouille because it was so detailed and authentic with the kitchen dynamics, the passion for food, the brigade structure and ofc the overall message. I grew up in that environment and every time I watch it, it reminds me of him and the people in his kitchen. Man, they were all... unique. But I loved every single one of them like family!
3:54 Tonkotsu ramen broth is made from pork bones ("ton" means "pig", and "kotsu" means "bone" in Japanese). It is "made by simmering or boiling pork bone, or pork marrow for about 8 to 12 hours, and adding various seasonings. With that amount of time, the pork marrow releases all of its flavors into the steamed water, by creating a thick and creamy tonkotsu broth".
same, i watched this episode on spotify when it came out, and i started laughing when i saw the title of the video because i thought of the distractible episode, and here i am still watching and enjoying it
Brad Bird is an absolute legend. He directed The Iron Giant, The Incredibles & Incredibles 2, Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol and of course, Ratatouille!
Ratatouille is my favorite animated movie ever. Every time I prepare dinner (and I mean like actually try my hardest and like assemble the presentation) I always play "Le Festin". No joke. Even if the meal sucks, haha.
For me its foods with spices mixed in. Like I have Ratattoui moments whenever I eat foods like cajun food. I am from louisiana but I mainly grew up moving a lot due to dad in the navy. But no matter where I go, any food that works with mixing spices like cajun or even most asian cutlures do, I fall in love with it. I just sit there eating and marveling at the meal. I have eaten a lot of things but something just snaps in me when foods like that
😭 Melting Pot! My hubby and I used to go every year for our anniversary and for Valentine's Day since the place was an hour drive away. But they closed down because the owner got tired of it. The nearest one now is a nearly five hour drive away. I loved that place so much and miss it so much.
The biggest Ratatouille moment that I had semi-recently was spicy (mostly) homemade chicken alfredo from a Hy-Vee cookbook. As a fan of alfredo pasta and spicy foods, it intrigued me. Adding red-pepper flakes and other spicy additions made it incredibly delicious.
Idk why but the shrimp and yellow curry immediately brought up the time I first tried Indian food. It was the middle of winter and my then-boyfriend and I were hungry but not really wanting to go out anywhere to get food (Wisconsin winter is like the Ninth Circle of H E L L). We could not decide what we wanted for awhile since we were tired of our typical spots while other spots we would HAVE to drive to. We needed something different. That was when I stumbled upon New Taste of India, a local restaurant that we had never tried. We didn't know much about Indian food and if we were going to make a bad decision. Yet, we went for it. We ordered Lamb in Red Curry sauce, Butter Chicken, Naan, and their Basmati Rice. The first bite of the Lamb curry was already amazing... but when I got to the Butter Chicken? I felt like I saw the gates of Heaven. It was so warm and creamy. It was like the best creamy tomato soup with chicken ever. That, on top of the rice with some Naan is something I will request on my deathbed.
"Ratatouille" is one of my favorite Pixar movies and I agree with Bob and Mark. Everytime I got to a restaurant and order food, I hope there will be a moment when my mind will go blank cause of the taste.
Bro... as someone how has seen ratatouille at least 10 times in english and 4 times in french idk how wade has avoided it for so long... ITS SO GOOD definitely one of my favorite movies
Love Ratatouille. My favorite Disney Pixar movie. If Pixar were to keep pushing sequels on any of their movies I want a sequel to Ratatouille. Keep expanding on Remy being a chef. I wouldn’t mind a short mini series of how Remy got his own restaurant after Gusto’s was shut down. Like the build up and development of Remy getting his restaurant and him narrating all the struggles that ensued.
As someone who greatly savors every new food experience, I LIVE for Ratatouille moments. The most recent one I had is actually really common in concept, but the specific ingredients always weird people out when I try to tell them about it. Sweet/salty is super common right? If you like that combo AT ALL, you need to try soy sauce and vanilla icecream. It only takes a very little amount of soy sauce (its annoyingly easy to use too much)(does "just a pinch" of sauce makes any sense?), but it gives the icecream this almost, but not quite, caramel flavor. It might be the greatest "sweet" flavor I've ever tasted.
Mark could probably save any place from going out of business just by telling where it is and watching his fans crowd the place. Sure, he probably won't be able to use it if he does... but with his promotion, any store would be thriving.
As someone who lives in LA, I just HAVE to know what place Mark was talking about with the kimchi ramen because after hearing him talk about it in this episode I immediately wanted it lmao. I found several results for places serving kimchi ramen in LA but the closest one I found that fits his description and price was an artisanal ramen place… and even then I’m not 100% sure if that’s the one. Kinda wish he gave the name. (Edited out the name just in case, since I’ve seen other people in the comments voicing their concerns as to why Mark chose not to name it)
Ratatouille moment I had recently was when I went to this place called West Coast Sourdough for the first time. It's a sandwich place that only uses sourdough bread, and I got a bread bowl there with clam chowder poured in. The warmth of the fresh bread + the perfection of the clam chowder was immaculate. I ate the whole thing
I've been eating miso noodles with kimchi and it's amazing, just the store bought quick stuff too. Can't imagine how good it would be in an actual restaurant
Ratatouille is my favorite animated movie. I thought I didn't like kimchi because I had only had it twice from my mom's friend. I tried it at this little Korean Barbeque place in the city near me and it was so good. I like most pickled veggies minus beets and the kimchi totally slapped. Also had fish strips (fish cake?) and I recognized it from back when I ate sliced mackerel on a dare back in university (was not a fish fan at the time). I enjoyed it and it must've been flavoured with spices or grilled then tinned. My roommate that dared me was from Hong Kong and said her grandma says that "anyone that eats mackerel has a long life/good luck". We also used to cook dumplings, pada haas (pierogies) or muffins at 4am in the morning 🌄.
there is a local ramen shop here that makes ALL of their stuff fresh. they make ramen, udon, curry, they make their own takoyaki WHICH IS ONE OF THE BEST THINGS I HAVE EVER CONSUMED WITH MY MOUTH HOLE. their black garlic tonkotsu is one of my most favorite meals to have in general and you get some IMMENSE portions. and they charge...$13 for a whole-ass ramen. i thought that was EXPENSIVE but i always thought it was worth it. but looking on it now...that's pretty effin cheap. this ramen shop is actually pretty popular and is almost always full so i doubt theyll go out of business anytime soon. but they survived COVID despite how it affected asian-owned businesses. its just THAT beloved in my town
If this wasn't recorded in distractable, mark would legit name drop that Ramen place so they would get more customers and will never go out of business
Kimchi Ramen is amazing. I had it a few times at a 5-star japanese restaurant and there's nothing else quite like it. It was so, so good, but extremely expensive, at least where I live. It's one of those rare meals that, unless you're banking lots of money, you may not want to overdo it lol.
I went to a festival in Louisiana recently, and I had an amazing chicken curry taco, then the best damn Peach Cobbler I have ever had in my entire life. I wish I could eat that peach cobbler for every meal ever, it was so good.
I had a ratatouille moment at Chick fil A. Never was the biggest fan initially but when I tried their Polynesian sauce, I was hooked. I’ve had sauces that are almost cheat codes for food in the past but this made me fall in love with Chick fil A!!
I usually hate fastfood restaurants but we had one two minutes away from our house that made the best and freshest hamburgers I've ever had. so at least once a month I was ordering two burgers there (don't remember the price. between 8-12€ I believe) and it was mostly on the hardest workdays where I let myself have these cuz they were just the highlight of the day. until the chef quit the job... and eventually the whole restaurant closed down. The wish to have at least once more a burger like this will haunt me till the day I die 😪 it was just the best. what made it so special was the sauce I think.
i feel like mark is so in love with this ramen that if the restaurant went out of business he would personally invest and fund the restaurant just to taste this ramen again 😭
For me, it's almost every time I have Japanese curry, especially the one time I made it myself. The fact that I was able to make that curry to the degree that I like at a restaurant was something that opened a door in my mind that made me a better cook.
A food that brings me great joy every time I eat is my grandma's recipe for zucchini muffins. I have had other people's zucchini bread/ muffins and it's good but not the same. I can probably count the amount of times I have eaten zucchini muffins on both my hands. Something about grandma's recipe is just amazing to me it tastes like there is a hint of peanut butter in them. I have watched the muffins being made before more than once. There is no peanut butter put in them. Idk maybe my taste buds are wonky lol. My mom knows how to make them but it's really more of a special occasion kind of food for us so who knows when I'll ever get to eat those muffins again.
I think I had a Ratatouille moment where I visited a Japanese restaurant and ordered monkfish tail in grapefruit jus. I thought it would be fish-like, and it was, but it tasted like steak- the monkfish was so meaty and savoury, and it mixed so well with the grapefruit jus’s sweetness- both sweet and meaty, it was awesome! Like the taste-centre of my brain levelled up when I ate it! I should rewatch Ratatouille…
The best thing about broth is that you can make a huge batch and then freeze a lot of it, you can find good quality noods and you can ask about the kimchi
First moment I can recall like this was when I had the freshest burger I have ever had. It was a little hole-in-the-wall place in my hometown and most of my burger experiences were fast food and some chains. This place had beef from a local farmer so fresh my burger was mooing two days before I ate it. It was soo tasty and filling a buddy of mine whos stomach was a black hole at McDonald's had to unbuckle his belt when he was done. Ive probably had better since, but nothing has topped that first experience.
The BEST BBQ Ribs I've ever had are the ones at the restaurant I work at (honestly no bias) every time I have them it's like the first time. They are by far, the most spectacular.
I can relate Mark. I had a Japanese bistro i frequented that made an extremely tasteful udon soup dish. The broth was actually good enough to just want it by itself. I found they used celery in it and learned to make a closely similar flavor. Sadly it got closed down due to covid. I was a regular too. Hard to find good ramen and (Japanese) curry dishes.
Mark, if you haven't tried them already there is a Michelin-starred Ramen franchise called Mensho. It started out in Japan, and now there's one in San Francisco and one coming to Oakland CA. I've not tried them myself, but have heard very good things! Obviously it's not cheap, but uses really premium ingredients and apparently it should give you a Ratatouille-tier experience! 🍜
Mark, the man who complains about having too much Youtber money. Should invest in the kimchi business to ensure it never goes under & have more of a direct connection to the food he enjoys so much.
This was my first time eating Korean and Indian food. At the Korean bbq I had japchae with bulgogi and kimchi and I saw stars. For Indian food I had chana masala and Gobi Manchurian and I had never had so much flavor before. My brain was buzzing. They’re now my two favorite cuisines.
Kimchi is so good! My favorites are Cleveland Kitchen and Nasoya. Mark (and comment section), if you want to learn to make ramen noodles / ramen from scratch, Pippa Middlehurst's "Dumplings and Noodles" has authentic Asian recipes to teach you how to do just that, from bao to ramen and a dozen variations in between! I highly suggest it to anyone who loves Asian cuisine but has no idea how to create those flavors and textures at home. It does require some specialty ingredients but it's adaptable!
I want to like kimchi. On paper it sounds like something I would really enjoy, like all the individual elements of it tend to be things I like, but I don't think I've had properly good kimchi before and at best I've only found it to be 'okay-ish'.
My guess is that Mark is talking about Kontentsu since it's pretty much right in the Flintridge area. There's also Modan Ramen and they have 2 locations so hopefully at least one stays in business 😉🤞
I get the broccoli comment. When I 1st started visiting my gf's apartment, I thought she had really bad gas until I realized it was due to her roasting broccoli. It took me a while to adjust to that smell.
Just imagine how different his opinion would be if he was still eating the same way he used to. Swallowing things whole, no tasting anything and therefore only eating things especially hot or sweet because they would be all he could taste at that point.
as someone who grew up as "Ratatouille" being my favorite movie, hearing others bring it up brings me joy especially from Mark
i clicked this video the second i read ratatoullie LOL
Definitely still one of my favorite movies. It’s one of the reasons why I went to culinary school and I even drew a Remy on my graduation cap.
One of my favorites, it's nostalgic to me ❤
TIL especial is a word on it's own and not a typo.
@@milyndaramirez4973 - I mean presumably he was underneath it anyway? 😛
I bet if Mark gave the address for this place if he is worried about them going out of buisness they would get an influx of customers real quick.
they would probably be overwhelmed
"We've sold 230 orders of Kimchi Ramen already this week. Markiplier's been talking about us again."
Someone determined enough could eat at every kimchi / Ramen on the menu restaurant and try to guess
it could be a privacy issue. if he says where it is, you bet there will be fans camping there

I love that Mark is tasting his food
no longer just shoving it down his gullet without tasting it
I'm shocked he went from hating egg yolks to loving egg yolks to hating egg yolks
@@glittery_cucumberi don't care for eggs, those white, round things..
I loved how Wade, who has never seen Ratatouille, was pretty much able to perfectly articulate that moment in his own experience.
My dad (a chef de cuisine) loved Ratatouille because it was so detailed and authentic with the kitchen dynamics, the passion for food, the brigade structure and ofc the overall message. I grew up in that environment and every time I watch it, it reminds me of him and the people in his kitchen. Man, they were all... unique. But I loved every single one of them like family!
Love whenever a food topic comes up in the show, Markibob and Mark probably came up with some budget recipes back in college

It is "made by simmering or boiling pork bone, or pork marrow for about 8 to 12 hours, and adding various seasonings.

.....so it's bone broth...? No wonder Mark loves it /ij /pos
I listen to the full podcast when episodes release but I am DEFINITELY watching these clips again, even if I've heard it before just a few days ago
same, i watched this episode on spotify when it came out, and i started laughing when i saw the title of the video because i thought of the distractible episode, and here i am still watching and enjoying it

I just keep watching mark as he gets older and I’m like… this man keeps MORPHING into Keanu Reeves
Bob's microphone, glasses, and lamp all match
Mark has to single handedly keep this one restaurant open forever
And he could
I bet Mark loves that he can appreciate food now that he doesn’t go Kirby on it lmfao
Bob's purple glasses are so adorable! 😂
they definitely need a ratatouille episode where wade just shares his opinion about the movie
Ratatouille is for me in my top 10 favourite Disney movie.
Ratatouille is a childhood classic.

It must truly be phenomenal! xD
I've never seen Ratatouille or had Kimchi. I didn't know either was so popular.
If that restaurant ever goes out of business, I feel confident that Mark could singlehandedly bail them out. XD
These thumbnails are getting better and better

I LOVE Tonkotsu ramen, it's my fave kind of ramen! 😋🍜❤ I love Kimchi also as long as it's not too spicy but Tonkotsu kimchi ramen sounds so good!
That’s how I feel about my mom’s cooking. Which is now extinct.

Mark's eyes were distracting AF. 😅 I don't know why but I kept watching them like they were doing something weird but I couldn't tell what it was.
Maybe he’s looking at another bit of the screen?
Or his eyes are so handsome it distracts, lolol
if that lil restaurant starts havin business troubles i feel like mark would turn into a private sponsor or sumthin, just lovin it that much
Watched this while hungry and now I'm craving some solid ramen from my favorite ramen place

One of my favorite Vietnamese restaurants was like that. When the owners retired, I can't find specific foods they created at any other restaurant.
Thank you Wade, I concur. Broccoli is gross.
Mark should consider buying into the restaurant
WADES NEVER SEEN RATATOUILLE!!! ITS LITERALLY MY FAV DISNEY MOVIE
Mark speaking blasphemy here, we all know his favorite movie is Shrek.
I can relate Mark. I had a Japanese bistro i frequented that made an extremely tasteful udon soup dish. The broth was actually good enough to just want it by itself. I found they used celery in it and learned to make a closely similar flavor. Sadly it got closed down due to covid. I was a regular too. Hard to find good ramen and (Japanese) curry dishes.

I've not tried them myself, but have heard very good things! Obviously it's not cheap, but uses really premium ingredients and apparently it should give you a Ratatouille-tier experience! 🍜
Omg!!! I had kimchi ramen at a place in Williamsburg, VA. Had never seen it on a menu before and it was so good!
