On Day 9 of our food and travel trip to Bhutan, we woke up in Haa Valley, had a delicious Bhutanese breakfast, took a hike, and the highlight for me was driving through Chele La Pass (3, 988 meters) at sunset. Haa Valley Farm Stay (Ugyen & Doley) - Bhutanese breakfast was again fantastic - with a mixture of different dishes including bitter gourd and chili sauce, and of course, butter tea. After taking a beautiful hike up one of the hills in Haa Valley, we then headed down to Risum Lodge for a Bhutanese lunch, which was overall good. In the afternoon, we started driving back to Thimphu where we passed through Chele La Pass - 3, 988 meters (13, 083 feet, what I believe is the highest mountain road pass in Bhutan. The sunset views were impressive, and the yaks at the top were also amazing to see. Disclosure: It was an honor to be invited by MyBhutan to visit Bhutan to explore Bhutanese food and culture.

to all the haters of Bhutan in the comment section: you visit a country for the people, cultural experience and food. you can also get good nature if that country has a lot of nature. and it is the different cultural experience that helps us understand that though we are different people, different culture, different belief, we all breathe live and carry the soul of life. we start understanding each other. seeing Mark's video I get to know countries that I never visited, food I never tested. if you are not open enough to accept that the food looks different than yours, that it has a lot of cheese, then why bother travelling or exploring new countires? not all countries are all party and night life, and some are spiritually awakening. like Bhutan. p: s: have never been to Bhutan. would love to visit

What I appreciate most about your videos Mark is that they give us direct access to distant cultures and their food without the taint of politics or conflict. I come away with an affection and appreciation for these people and a desire to share a meal. Sadly, the only times we see these places on the news is when something bad happens. The BBC or National Geographic needs to make a Bhutan special where your insights on local food are merged with stunning visuals of the local countryside

JJT903; you have not seen the videos he [Mark] made in countries were they used to eat with chopsticks. Mark, Ying and Micha live in Bankok and the people there used chopsticks. Also Mark. I saw him sometimes eating with his bare hand I thing that you must more see videos of Mark. He and Ying have travel many eastern countries for many years. He is now in Manilla with Jing and baby Micha making videos. You can see that after the Bhutan videos. I think that you see Mark used chopsticks

For all the people saying Bhutan food looks unappetizing, food is beyond instant gratification of flavors you'e used to. Mark is exploring and showcasing their culture as well and does so in a respectful and passionate manner. I would love to try all these Bhutanese dishes They look so different from Chinese and American food so I wonder how the flavors and textures taste like. You can complain all you want but Mark has an experience of a lifetime that I'm truly jealous of

Because he is very greedy maybe he as worms. Lol. I love you Mark & the amazing Vlogs you do but the food will still be there & stop shovelling it in your mouth like you are worried where your next meal is coming from. Poor Ying I don't know how she stands the noise when you Eat Even after my rant I love it seeing all the good food & the rubbish that some countries throw out. Also some of the gorgeous places you have been too. Look forward to your next Vlog x

All stop complaining and do a better Vlog about food, culture and country Its not that easy to keep your natural characteristics in front of a camera Mark is very authentic in what he is showing us and all the hate about his facial expression or biting the spoon is making me so angry Everyone has their own way to eat things and express the taste So stop hating and if you don't like his videos, then don't even start to watch it

lol eat travel edit upload and making sure he tilts his head in every episode. hey mark how do u react when you eat something horrible? you tilt your head opposite of if u liked it? haha You seem like a good natured person glad u have success. there is a place in phillipines that eat disposed food from landfill. they actually recycle it. you should try that and see if your head tilts
reply

Dear Mark, for your future reference, the best time to visit Nepal is in the month 'November' when it is neither cold nor hot; just the right temperature and the sky will also be clear which will allow us to do more, regarding day out. End of June to August is absolute no no as it is raining heavily and the weather is awful. Love from Nepal. You're the best Mark. :)

Bitter melon. protein. ambiance. respect for that beautiful culture still intact is to be honored and protected. Kudos to you and yours, you are segueing a new generation to respect for an ancient and sage wisdom -in practice, cuisine and quality of life. Thank You

Bitter melon is my favorite as well. And my makes it just like that. Caramelized I am trying to replicate the recipe but haven't been successful so far. I don't understand why people hate bitter melon at all. I sometimes drink it's juice and it feels so amazing.
