OTR Food & History
View ChannelAbout
The story of food is the story of people. And our mission on OTR is to document the dishes, recipes, and chefs that push boundaries, preserve old traditions, and most of all, deserve to be recorded. From our home in Bangkok, OTR is following the road wherever it leads, as we unwind the stories of what today is called "cuisine"- because when it comes to food, our shared history unfolds on every single plate.

Video Description
A new Cambodian Num Pang counter in Bangkok sparked an idea to compare Southeast Asia's three iconic sandwiches- the Num Pang, the Lao Khao Jee Pate, and of course, the Banh Mi. But a surprise rainstorm and some unexpected issues with filming caused the idea to change and expand in scope- covering the European history of baguettes, rebellions across the old French colonial empire, the story of sandwiches, and finally, an exploration of what might happen if the best Thai chefs made their own attempts at creating a Thai baguette masterpiece. - Please consider supporting OTR on Patreon and thanks so much to anyone who does; your support truly keeps us going. http://www.patreon.com/OTRontheroad Website: http://www.OTRontheroad.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/otr.offtherails/?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y%3D FB: https://www.facebook.com/OTR-106170292218693 - 0:00 - Introduction 1:10 - Fusion Food 5:17 - The Banh Mi 7:02 - Banh Mi History 11:43 - Dogs 12:57 - Baguettes Across the Empire 15:13 - Cambodian Num Pang 17:51 - Rain Part 1 18:56 - The History of the Sandwich 22:44 - Parisian Sandwiches 24:37 - The Austrian Origins 27:56 - Rain Part 2 29:18 - The Sandwich Takes Over 32:45 - Khao Jee Pate and Buying Bread 35:33 - Pad Kaprao and Satay Sandwiches 37:44 - Satay and Royal Thai Curry Sandwiches 40:26 - The Isaan Nam Tok Sandwich 42:53 - Chef Gaa's Moo Krob Sandwich 45:31 - Conclusion - Video Credits: https://youtu.be/tA65w0C74Yg?si=6CDWDdmCVH_tnM7a https://youtu.be/JKy9TNh1xB4?si=n1e4MZP5B7jEPKye https://youtu.be/nAQuc28I8G8?si=J1NkakRqvkgHx6Wj https://youtu.be/k4HA1ejw_hA?si=UnmVDcT_Biy8esi9 https://youtu.be/hGylYhY0NA4?si=E6VxgmoSpNW0niY- https://youtu.be/6JmWSwBLApc?si=jwg0omMYGb6SkPfg https://youtu.be/0nI9LvK7r-4?si=oX0hL4YkMv5BAUsV https://youtu.be/uBMMggfNuKI?si=XFgEnaQZWFEaZ1Wz https://youtu.be/W1h-OgCTKKg?si=e68_EON595Gxj2Gp https://youtu.be/NhNPeZt3rZE?si=yDL8ac0ZghQrsPlr https://youtu.be/FyOJVbIsOc4?si=Yo23ivlPhYUFE29Q https://youtu.be/Mu05Kro2Dqg?si=Tx91A8Ad6I2Rdonf https://youtu.be/1j51_jOxErw?si=Olnzguh2BGHXLKNl https://youtu.be/PYSiZvcY3Go?si=fSGqD1qXP1UGVNa2 https://youtu.be/wYiPphKFk5A?si=p3IqaTbBtYspmK5m https://youtu.be/qx_mxpbDjB8?si=kq6O3Kva2akroe3U https://youtu.be/s--U1Shxwwg?si=cNyiEcKU5Z3_HrLA https://youtu.be/Mu05Kro2Dqg?si=fLafEYu8ycGAL51E https://youtu.be/9A1hfRgPGbA?si=dcggnjNf2F9uKG7P https://youtu.be/BMbpv5ok6BU?si=d-zCjUvtxilHXqUs
