On Day 3 of this Bhutan food and travel trip, we were invited to cook Bhutanese food with the chefs at Hotel Druk, one of the legendary historical hotels in the heart of Thimphu, Bhutan. Sikam paa - This is one of the most common Bhutanese dishes of sun dried pork belly cooked up with dried chilies. Its not a dish for your if you dont like some fat, but it is pretty tasty and I especially like the dried chilies. Ema datshi - Considered the national dish of Bhutan, ema datshi is Bhutanese cheese and chilies. We learned to cook this dish and then ate it for lunch. Kewa datshi - Similar to ema datshi, but this is the version with potatoes instead of chilies. Jasha tshoem - This is a Bhutanese style of chicken curry, that makes use of lots of ginger and butter. Its very good. Hogey salad - This is a Bhutanese salad of cucumber and vegetables with crumbled Bhutanese cheese added for flavoring. Thank you to Hotel Druk in downtown Thimphu for inviting us to learn some Bhutanese dishes and for the delicious food. Hotel Druk also serves excellent Indian food Disclosure: It was an honor to be invited by MyBhutan to visit Bhutan to explore Bhutanese food and culture.

this guys never reply to my tweet and never reply tp my questions. These guy is an opportunist. he rarely show is fans on videos. he reply to the people from which he can get profit. I have tweeted and message more than 100s. not even a single reply. You are a disgrace to all the food blogers. Seriously Mark you are a disgrace. he reply to one of my friend offers him a free trip to India. Just one message and he replied. Sorry Mark he is my friend we were just playing a game and you have proved that you care for only people with benefits.

Mark - I get as excited seeing you enjoy yourself eating as you do having the experience. I am thoroughly enjoying your visit to Bhutan. I can't believe how watching your vlogs have changed my diet & influencing my cooking. The chef at the Druk hotel, wow, what a gentleman in the food he made. I have a burning desire for a mutton curry. Happy blogging Mark & keep them coming. Thank you.

I enjoyed your Istanbul videos specifically for the tourism and Turkish food information. I'm not a big fan of the fake orgasm while leaning almost out of frame exercise after each bite you take. Not authentic, I think. It would be nice to see the REAL you (without the over-Americanized voice. Can you be REAL just once in your videos. I think more people would relate.

I'm surprised those kids can communicate so well in English. That's their ticket out of the high mountain life if they ever decide to come on down to the plains where the rest of us folks live and put up with crowds like in Bangkok and Manila. Nice surprise curry dish there in the end. Today I got green curry in my lunch maybe it will be yellow curry tomorrow.

Thank you Mark, Bhutan is my next destination, your videos are a great source of travel and food information. I really love the way you enjoy food and talk about the country you visit or live. Food in Bhutan is made of delicious awesome ingredients while you are made of curiosity, sincerity and honesty. Thanks man for the journey

I love Mark Wiens. he really is one of the sweetest bloggers. He is so respectful of other cultures, unlike many bloggers who are forever making disgusting faces & disgusting comments about foods from this area, Indian subconinent. His presentation of food is in the right spirit. makes one WANT to eat what he is eating.

I was pleasantly surprised to see pork in indian cuisine. My knowledge is quite limited in terms of cuisine so I always thought pork was something rarely eaten, if ever, in indian cuisine since i've never seen pork on any indian menu in north american indian restaurants. it's mostly chicken and lamb.

I must admit I was very ignorant I was just asking myself where the hell is that and it's Thailand I'm so glad I asked and held on. I love history and geography and I just really love your vlogs keep them coming I can't get enough of them

You can not mix 2 items in Indian food such as I saw you mixing mutton curry with Chicken biryani. That ruins the individual tastes of these 2 fantastic items. However, I enjoyed your videos on entire Bhutan trip. Congrats

Mark because we Bhutanese believe eating the natural way using hands. we don't eat the chilli stem, we hold on it and chew the rest part. Next time throw away the stem. Love your videos though.
