I love spice but I also appreciate super simple food so I think Colombian food fits me. If I want something different I can cook or go to an international restaurant, simple.
Exactly! Me too
Nice video David 😄. I have made my friends to subscribe ur channel.
Thank you! Great! I hope they like the channel.
Hey....congrats on the 1k subscribers and thanks for the content. Definitely helped pass some time during quarantine but I also learned a lot! I've been taking bits of your videos and sharing with my Colombian friends here in NYC...you're making me sound smart lol - Keep it up and good luck!
Thank you! We made it to 1k! Now to 5k. Happy you are enjoying them.
Haha, that is great! Keep watching to gather more info. 😀
Yo! I just send a donation on your Paypal account (Ray Santos) hope you're safe & sound...one quick questions, is that possible you record the outdoor workout equipment sometimes...quick vid would do it...Thanks matte
Hey Ray, I really appreciate the support. Yes, of course. I can do a quick video of the place I work out.
hey bro, gringo living in Mexico. Next year, I'm going to live in Colombia, not gonna lie, worried about the food lol.....you know how the food is here guey 🔥
Haha. Mexican food is so good
Good foodie video but I need some spices I’m from Southern California it’s Mexican, Chinese or Louisiana spice 👍🏽
Thank you! When I first moved here I really missed spicy food. But I have actually gotten used to it by now.
BON APPETIT DAVID FOOD LOOKS AWESOME.. AND YOU LOSE WEIGHT AWESOME
Thank you! Yes, the food is simple but tasty.
The Colombian food is not bland. It's just not spicy. It has healthy, natural tasty flavor and has good sazon. That's different.
We can always add chimichurri or aji.
Only a 6 minute video (crying) David you breaking my heart man lol still showing support man keep grinding
Hahaha. I know. This is mega short compared to my normal videos. But don't worry, long videos are to come as well. 😀
The combination of rice and beans guarantees a diet with 9 essential amino acids (those that are not produced by our body). If the quality is good you fall in love and then you can't leave the country! 😂
Very true!
It says La Conquista restaurant ...
Yes, that's the name. Thank you!
Broooo! You need to try out my friends restaurant in Medellin. It’s called La Jalapeña. It’s Mexican cuisine. It’s really good. But on a side note I love the mondongo soup. It’s the best!
Just looked up La Jalapena and that place looks legit. I’ll have to try it when I get down there. Love good Mexican food. Thanks
@ rudy - yes, i need to check it out. Are they open to where i can get in and sit? Your friend can contact me as well. But let it be known, I'll give my honest opinion. 😁😂 I'm sure it's good though.
I'll try it out too.
I like the food review videos, David. La Jalapeño would be cool to see.
Yes. I would enjoy that too. Long time since i had Mexican food
I love Colombian food David you should try going to Cali Columbia the food there is wonderful one of my favorite cities to eat in Seafood in Cali is amazing
Yes, i really need to make it to Cali.
ColOooooombia
made me hungry enjoyed video
Haha. Happy you enjoyed it.
Me hizo hambre! But liver and onions my brother? Can't watch this part...buen provecho!
Haha. You don't like liver and onions? It's great with rice.
@@LifewithDavid the one and only thing we disagree on!
😂😂 can't have everything perfect. Lol
Damn David no matter how much I try
I can never eat liver
Come back to Medellin my
Man
Nice lunch love that it is so affordable to eat out at restaurants there. Any spirits that mix well with the sugar cane juice?
It is a very good lunch for the price. I am not sure what would mix well with the juice, maybe vodka.
Nice!
I 👀 you’re moving on up, Señor David! Sponsored video/commercials and all. Is that something that happens automatically after reaching 1K subscribers?
Yes! We are moving on up! Next step, 5k subs. 😀 You have to have 1k subs and 4k watch hours and then RUclips has to approve your channel to be monetized. I had 10k watch hours already when I hit 1k subs. LOL I appreciate you guys so much and the support you have been giving me and this channel. 😀
Life with David does it impact you if we skip versus watch the full commercials?
Well, the longer you watch the commercial the more us RUclipsrs make. But don't feel pressured to watch all the commercials. Liking and commenting on the videos also helps a lot to grow the channel.
Life with David Congrats, David! Remember me as one of your initial, faithful subscribers. I’m heading to DR next month for two weeks but as soon as Colombia open its borders I coming to visit. Sure hope to link up with you and pick your brain! Keep up the great work!
Thank you and for sure I'll remember all of my first and faithful subscribers. Let me know when you're in town and we'll get a beer.
Bland as fok
Haha
Meal cost 9.000 pesos. 👌
Your typical food in Colombia is terrible. Lots of carbs and fried foods. On the other hand you can go to grocery stores and get a wide variety of fruits and vegetables so you can cook at home and eat very well. And very inexpensively. Hope to see you on September 2nd and have a beer. I bought a ticket on Spirit from Boston to Medellin for 48 bucks one way
Wow! That is super cheap! I hope these prices stay this way for a while. We will see. Yes, you are right, they use too many carbs and like to fry many things. And in the store you can buy very good quality ingredients for super cheap and cook at home. I mostly eat meat, chicken, fruits, and veg at home. Like to get out for a better cooked meal once in a while (I get bored with my simple cooking sometimes. lol)
I agree, Colombian food tends to be bland. It doesn't have the same depth or complexity as Mexican food. It's still good though and it isn't as processed as the food here in the States. A question for you Dave. Are the restaurants in Medellin doing takeout only? ( I notice you have a table.)
I agree. Not as many flavors here. But still good.
Places that passed the inspections and follow the rules are now allowed to have people in on limited capacity
I’d imagine such local food is less processed and full of chemicals than US food.
That is very true!! it is rare that I get that gross feeling when I over eat here. I think the body just digest the food here better, or something. Because of less chemicals.
@@LifewithDavid Yes sir! We can all love the USA, but the US food chain is full of junk. I think you can eat healthier in places like Colombia. The locals probably use ingredients that are "closer to the earth."
Exactly
Appreciate the video David. Glad to see you doing some food related vids. I may have missed it, but next time if you tell us the name of the place and neighborhood location, that would be helpful. To me it provides more context to the video. Great work brother. Keep up the great work. Be safe.
Happy you enjoyed it. I didn't say the place. Good point. It's in conquistadores and the name is el conquistador
The lunch options in Colombia are very inexpensive as you say. The two things that are lacking for my German-American wife is the lack of salad choices and also the downright pitiful dessert options. Whenever I take her to Medellin, she knows she won't be eating salads like we are accustomed in the states and also she won't be having the type of rich dessert options you get in the states and also Germany. Stay safe! Keep the great content coming!
Yes, i was missing delicious salads too when i first came here. But now just used to it. It's not part of their culture to have massive salads. There are some restaurants that specialize in salads here though.
Beans are not carbs they are protein, and I miss my Colombian food so much.
I miss Colombian food too when i travel. Beans do have carbs, plus protien and fiber. A good balance food. 👍😋
Beans are mostly carbs then protein depending on the bean then hardly any fat, also depending on the bean
True
Affordable and healthy sounds great to me!
Me too! 😀
Nice good healthy food. Great price
Yes it is
@@LifewithDavid i wish i could be there now to experience
Soon brother. Things will get back to normal, hopefully soon.
@@LifewithDavid i hope so. Finally got my new passport. Im ready
Nice!! Time to fill that thing up. 😁
I think it works out pretty well to have short videos also . So you can focus on an specific theme . That can be used in food , but also when for example you visit an apartment . That way someone who is interested on an specific cost of an apartment for rent or buy ; doesn’t have to look an hour walk of a neighborhood
I agree 100%. A good mix of short, medium, and long videos is good.
@@LifewithDavidgood! an hour long videos every time is a big commitment !
and sometimes you just might want to show a little aspect like when you showed the street robot .
Very true
