🥒ABOUT BEFRS:
Hey, I’m Sonny! I’m from the US but currently call Vietnam home. I’ve been living in Asia for 10 years and started making food and travel videos to document my experiences. I travel to different parts of the world, hunting down and documenting the most unique food each country has to offer.
If you see any factual food errors in my videos, please feel free to politely let me know in the comments. I'm a huge fan of trying different, interesting foods in each country. My show is from a Western point of view, but more importantly, MY point of view. It is not meant to offend any person or culture.

Me pakistani street food pels come to my channel
Please ask to Shizuka, where is Nobita?
P
Shizuka Anderson i love you 😀
Hope sunny youll try ippudo ramen in japan
Honestly this channel feels exactly like I'm just watching a travel cooking show on TV. The editing and content is so good. I'm consistently impressed.
True
I think this channel schools TV shows
Way better than on tv and any other food show.
I don't have any good links for you but people who were on the Travel Channel for food shows like Andrew Zimmern and others, will tell you how the industry and channel has changed a lot since we were younger. There's a reason there was a noticeable decline in such shows. I'm sure there's a good youtube documentary on it, but it's very interesting. Thankfully, great YT channels like this are taking their place.
There is no such thing as a TV show anymore. It's just "content". How it arrives to your eyes and ears is irrelevant.
Shizuka is one of the best co-hosts of Sonny. I'm glad they made a compilation of their adventures last time.
agreed. I hope they meet again.
Not to mention she’s easy on the eyes 😍
Nah wrong , no way.
Thats his wife
@@Kvtrunners definitely dating
This is by far one of the best food documentaries on KZhead right now. You show much respect for these amazing people who work together. It's a deep exploration of culture, an appreciation for life and the things we take for granted. The content and the work you put in speaks for itself. As a chef in Canada and an admiration to culinary diversity. With all due respect you have filled that gap Anthony left me with. Thank you for this channel Sonny. Seriously.. at this point I feel like Prime, Netflix or Discovery should step up and offer or something. Please don't lose your sense of humor, your drive and your beautiful bandana...
Shizuka was the best guest you’ve had yet! Her voice is so soothing, cute , and playful. Her laughter and smile is so sweet. Her expression and reaction to everything is so entertaining. You guys are so fun together. Loved her on your episode! Hope to see her more! Btw, your video editing is great! Loving how your channel has evolved. Very Anthony Bourdain with more humor! ❤
He was hitting that every night
@@dpenduro8950 wild. but true
"i could drop it in your mouth" - sonny to Shizukas.... noyzzzz🤣✌
@@dpenduro8950not him being married 😭
she got wild rizz
If you told me that I'd be spending hours on end watching a loud, bandana-clad American on a world food tour, I'd have called you crazy. And yet... Honestly Sonny, you are one of the most sincere, genuine, open, fun, passionate, engaging hosts I have ever seen on KZhead. Please keep doing what you're doing. Sorry for judging a book by its cover when I first scrolled past your recommended vids. My bias was completely unfounded. This is amazing content.
It’s crazy to me how people still generalize so much about Americans. In the US we have racism obviously but we aren’t as xenophobic and we don’t judge people from where they’re from.
@@BreathOfDust I'll absolutely cop that criticism on the chin. Sadly the last few years of US culture and politics have left a lot of us baffled and appalled, but it's not fair of me - or anybody - to tar everybody with the same brush. My comment was partly a reminder to myself that I should not judge people by a bandana and a loud voice as that's incredibly narrow-minded of me.
As a laid back Albertan from 🇨🇦 I endorse your comment
Ditto…
I’m doing the same at 1:00 am🤣
Shizuka is such a darling. She's fun to watch and one of Sonny's best co-hosts by far. Also, I love all the places and food with a little bit of history on the side.
i just fell in love lol.
She is just a snob with no creativity. Even after editing.....
they are awesome, and im actually in love with shizzy haha
Qqqqq
She makes the best and cutest co host! Sunny should be dating her! ❤
you gotta admit, Sonny and shizzy had one of the best chemistry in all of his adventures. Couldn't ask for a better co-host, hope you guys make more vids together!
I feel like the awkward yet blatant flirting takes away from the food journey. esp. knowing that sonny is married. idk it makes me cringe. only reason more people aren't put off by this is bc she's attractive🤷🏽♀
@@misstaylor5104you're the only one that's awkward and uncomfortable here, like imagine being triggered by a woman being slightly flirtatious, you're just being a fuckin weirdo lmao
@@misstaylor5104 I agree, this video made me uncomfortable for his wife lol
@@misstaylor5104 Subconsciously you are going to lowkey flirt when interacting with a beautiful lady like Shizuka. Gordon Ramsay is guilty of this too 😅
@@misstaylor5104same thats what i kept on thinking throughout the whole video 💀
When talking about the nuclear disaster and radiation that happened after the tsunami and recovering from it, I remembered reading about older volunteers stepping forward to take the place of younger workers when the radiation levels and danger were high. Love, respect, and admiration for the people of Japan.
No do not pls
Nooooooooooooooooooo you
wtf?
Tf????!?!?!
They take honor seriously. That's why they have by far the highest suicide rate in the world.
The ending was absolutely beautiful. As someone who grew up in a family that didn't always have the means to go to the store and grab beef like most people it gave me such a warm feeling. My sisters and I were all raised on venison and seeing people on the other side of the world show so much respect for something harvested from nature, something that sustained my family for generations is absolutely incredible.
Venison sausage is most delicious.
you were not financially wealthy, but just remember that you *were* rich in your own way. Venison is nearly always going to be a better cut of meat than beef.
Not only does Sonny do a great, entertaining show, he somehow manages to capture the soul of the people living there in a way that you would not expect from a food show. I really get to feel what the people, culture, and country are like, experienced through their food. It's a truly spectacular and deeply connecting experience.
Best episode I have seen so far. You just keep getting better and better. The between the lines humor is outstanding. Entertainment factor 10/10. Your co-host is amazing. I would love to see you two get your own television series. You disserve so much. The talent behind the scenes are such a big part of your show and very talented in what they do. 5 stars all around. Great job.
You guys have great chemistry as the hosts! You look like bestfriends in this show! It's so natural chemistry! Love this documentary!
agreed
its his wife isnt it????
@@Danny8Ter No she isn't his wife.
@@Danny8Ter No. She is Japanese. Sonny's wife is Vietnamese.
Shizuka is such a great co-host. I hope you bring her back. Awesome episode as always.
she is so cute my brain hurts.....thank you sonny.
she wears nice black heels too
I literally had to pause and microwave my ramen, and I added some chicken nuggets as hopes to experience something as awesome as you guys are experiencing in this video!
☠️☠️ yooo
Nuggets is crazy 😂
Wow, thank you BEFRS for introducing Shizuka Anderson to us. I'll definitely try to check their content from now on. What a good duo you guys made in this series, absolutely loving the energy. Please consider doing an another collab together in future. Keep up the great work Sonny & BEFRS crew
There's nothing like being there, but as someone who has major travel anxiety, channels like this are the next best thing! Learning about food and cultures around the world is so awesome. Thanks for all the amazing content Sonny!
Sonny is just the best he knows when to interject jokes and it feels more like a conversation rather than a blunt documentary...I love this show
I so love shizuka.. She has a good vibes that can keep the viewers smiling.. Hope you two can have more food adventures together🥰🥰🥰
i like her, very vibrant, brings a lot of color to the show
@@rodanteleonor5035 and she’s hot Just sayin 😁
That’s his wife now.
@@mrorangeDenver do you know for FACT??? we've ALL been guessing for so long now who it is ......!
@@mrorangeDenver Uh, his wife is Vietnamese.
I watched this whole thing. Normally I skip through shows like this, but this was edited well, kept interesting, informative, and fun. AMAZING job!!
I personally love how you showed behind the scenes of how the beef is graded and the actual cost for one purchase. Always wondered why it cost so much to get one steak (Never had one before) and now I have a understanding as to why
You've never had a steak?
Where did you grow up?
@@JoeAlexGilchrist I've had steak, not Wagu. I live in America.
Damn, Shizuka is absolutely dope, what a bright nice refreshing personality. Perfect combination with Sunny's bubbly / weirdness, this episode was great. More like this!
Sunny is self made, he created greatness without a major tv channel.I heard he use to be a waiter. You have to realize greatness when it’s in front of you.Thank you for this channel and your content into this world! Hope to meet you In Italy.
he use 5 people to made the video's.....
@@hdj81Vlimited 5 people is nothing, do you have any idea how many people are involved in TV shows? More like hundreds
@@pricklycats I'd say we have to give some credit to his crew, it wouldn't feel the same with anyone replaced
@@stuckincollege1778 True
@@hdj81Vlimited I remember somewhere him saying he and a friend started it together and they edited together. Once he got more popular hewas able to add staff but you can see how much he improved over time when you are on a rabbit hole of his shows lol
You & Shizuka make a very entertaining, yet informative team. I could look forward to the 2 of you doing another episode. Well done. Experiencing so many firsts makes for a very interesting episode.
Can I just say, Shizuka is da best co-host so far 😍 Perfect combination
I rather have Calvin over her, to be honest.
@@circleancopan7748 wahahah Okay :)
Calvin is hard to beat, Andrew is also a keeper, but yes, Shizy is great 😊
@@samuel1836 hehe yeah
@@samuel1836 what episode?
Shizzy is simply the best co host. Love her energy.
yeah the guys energy is weirdly sexual towards her
@@skylarwalls3227 well u cant blame us,she is smoking hot and beautiful :D
@@skylarwalls3227 it's totally reciprocated
I mean I thought Calvin was as stud muffin, but yeah... Skizuka is a turbo babe. It's honestly a tie for me
@@skylarwalls3227 what?
Back in the hospital again...51 surgeries and counting...I haven't eaten in a year (feeding tube) and watching your videos have brought me so much joy along with feeding me through your amazing experiences and wonderful cultural immersion. Thank you Sonny and team for bringing love, light and laughter into my heart and imaginary belly!!! Lol YOU DA BEST!!! Much love in the New Year everyone!!! Ahhhhhhh peaccceeeeeeee!!! 😁
Wishing you nothing but the best in your journey of recovery. 💙
Damn bro. You’re a strong man. With positive outlook, I commend you. I seemingly have a perfect life and still somehow find myself damn near suicidal. You may have physical impairments but your mindset is worth more than you can imagine
Sonny and crew, thank you so much for showing us cultures and foods that are off the beaten path. It's fun and informative, but also relaxed. I love the show and always look forward to the next episode.
You both have a great chemistry together, super fun and natural to watch together, you should have a show together trying stuff/cooking stuff
Ikr? They need to collaborate more.
totally agree
i think their chemistry continued in his hotel
@@killigeosamsung8037 Hes married bro cmon
@@AbsurdJosh everything can be broken. 80% of marriages break up at some point
Oooh I remember this Japan series! Glad we have the full documentary now it's easier to rewatch! Thanks BEFRS Team! The jokes, the editing, amazing co-hosts, the respect towards each and every culture, the content variety, compromise with the team and audience... Seriously the Best Ever Food Review show and one of my 2020 pandemic's joys. I binge watched this channel and have been here ever since
COMPLETELY agreed. He saved this shut in’s life letting me live vicariously through his adventures 😅😂 you can’t get any better than Sonny. ☝🏾😌 I wondered what took this full documentary this long to post though
Absolutely loved Shizuka being the guest host in this one!!! This would have been a great episode regardless, but she made it so much better!
Might be the best ever episode. Special show. The chemistry with Shizuka is out of this world. Love it.
Clicked faster than a lightning when I saw Shizuka and Sonny together again!
But it was old video. I was sad
Same here.🥰
Haha same!!!!!!
Yea me too... And than it's not even new 😅
@@huyquoctran2088 we were clicked baited to an old video
I saw all these episodes separately and once again the collab with Shizuka and Sonny works very well! The chemistry is great and they both seem to have the same sense of humor! Great content!
They are married now
@@M3ganwillslay If you're serious, I definitely believe that. I was getting they would be a nice couple vibes
@@phedreBiOn yep .either she or Mi, his egoistic producer from.vietnam
@@M3ganwillslay no her bf is asian
i love shizuka she’s so cheerful but also calm. her personality compliments yours perfectly!
Sonny unironically making me so much more open to eating stuff that I would consider gross few months ago. Some stuff like isopods is still too much for me atm but I have learned to truly feel comfortable with the idea of eating most things thanks to him. What a genuinely amazing host, keep it up boss.

Sonny, Shizzy is a delight ! Love her reactions. She just bubbles with good vibes. As always, another great show.
I swear sonny you have me glued to your utube. I have watched other adventures and introducing use to food and culture. I would one watch one or two. But with your show it has showed me so much and the places you go you show so much respect. I love how you tell what's in the recipes. Seeing what you take has had me want to try so much and talking myself other animals don't seem so bad to try. Thank you sharing all your adventure and tours around the world. Love it keep it coming. 💯 ❤
I love the full documentary episodes. You're awesome man. It's cool that you have a good sense of humor, immerse yourself into the culture outside of the food and encourage your tour guides to get outside of there comfort zone, even in their home country. I love that you're not afraid to try the foods that are considered taboo as well. What an inspiration for people especially in the USA to learn about the people outside of the states. Keep it up.
The only 1 hour food video I fully watch without skipping a single minute! What a lovely duo, Shizuka and Sonny 🍻
the chemistry between these two is wild
Doesn’t he have a wife?
@@erdenaydemirtas4978 That doesn't mean he can't meet other people whom he likes and gets along with.
yea, would be so disappointing if they didn't fck, like COME ON!!1!1!one!
So glad ive decided to watch more quality content like this when youtube is full of such controversy. Thank you for this wholesome and inspirational experience. I cant wait for the opportunity to explore these cultures and traditional foods for myself and loved one some day.
We can all agree that we all fell for Shizuka's personality
Complementary personalities. Need to get Shizuka on more of your shows going beyond Japan. You two make a great show host duo.
I'm literally going to miss seeing you guys together. A powerful team.
Just replace literally with really..
these two go AMAZING together! one of the best episodes. The editor has great comedic timing :)
Shizuka is the best co host so far. Very natural. I need more videos from her 🥰. Amount of dedication to create this video is truly amazing 🤩 Thank you guys 😍
SHIZUKA!!!!! SHE'S BACK!!! Edit: Old Travel 🙃🙃
Just want to reiterate that this is literally the best ever food review show. I've watched countless episodes and Sonny continues to make me laugh out loud. Love it! I will be in Da Nang a week after new years 2023 and if I see him, I'm totally asking for an autograph and picture!
oh yeah, Shizuka is great too! Pretty, speaks perfect English, and adds the right touch of history with everything they try. Also adds the quirky funniness as well! Great synergy with Sonny as hosts.
How did it go?
Man Sunny, your team is killing it... this was by far one of your best videos, the last part was my favorite for some reason, it made me cry a bit.
Oh my god.. 7 months passed and and I'm still not over this video. It's like a movie to me, whenever I eat food i put this video on. The best Japanese food review show 🙌
I just got done eating a meal while watching this too lol
@@vangjohnny08 it feels like you are having the same thing 😋
Sonny, you have created one of the most amazing foodie shows on the internet, or any place else for that matter. Congratulations.
Dude; the videos that you and your team make are incredible. I love that you show so much of the culture and not just the food itself. Being able to not only see the food but being introduced to so many unique cultures are the reason I've subscribed and the reason I felt the need to leave a comment even though a normally never do.
This video has better production quality than most travel channel or food network shows. Good job. Keep it going
This channel is like my favorite food network show, 24\7. This man, and Anthony Bourdain are truly men of culture. RIP Mr. Anthony Bourdain
This makes me miss Japan 🗾 so much!! Amazing people, amazing food, and just an amazing polite gentle culture. Great job on the video!
When you said ppl at home aren’t paying attention to the fish preparation I really was on my phone reading the comments then looked up bc of that 😂😂 You guys HAVE TO be together now. The chemistry is just too electric it’s crazy. It made this series so much more enjoyable that it’s like wow. How do you not want to be around this energy all the time? I gotta know the truth. Thanks for the entertainment 🙌🏼
Sonny is married
I kept asking myself where have I seen this guy But now I know… He reminds me of Sensei Lawrence from Cobra Kai!!
One of the best episodes I've seen so far!!! What a presentation!!! Kudos to the entire team!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️Love from India
I've watched all of your videos. I don't know how I missed this one, and Shizuka added even more fun to the video. I enjoyed it to the fullest, laughing with tears.
This was my favorite episode by far. The co-host Shizuka is such an amazingly lovely woman. I really hope to see more episodes with her. Sonny as always you are the MAN! Brave as fk and always respectful. Much love from Hawaii.
This documentary was long but it's worth the time.. watching! Each and everyone of the team had made effort and time to the contributions of success. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Thanks for this, was a joy to watch and very entertaining!
This channel is just amazing and highly educational. As somebody who doesn’t fare well on boats, I really felt for the team trying to hold it together.
I absolutely loved Shizuka on the show! She made this series so fun to watch! Amazing on screen chemistry together!
Imagine Sonny,Calvin and Shizuka all in one video together eating food 😍 life would be complete
It would be a great series. Possibly even the best series.
Agree. Sonny, Calvin and Shizuka.. pleasssssssssse
With Thuyen as a mystery guest.
That is exactly what I just commented 😄
Calvin is boring without Sonny though.
Dont know how many times ive watch this full docu. Very good video, thank you Sonny and Shizuka! Will always consider Japan my second home 💕💕
This was an insane experience, thank you!
My favorite episode yet! Shizuka was such a lovely co-host. You’ve both inspired me to create a gourmet ramen recipe on my channel! Looked so good!!
Not only are you one of the most beautiful women on earth, but your a lady of culture. Goals 😍
I wish my city had food stands with venison! XD
Kudos to your production team, I mean this is quite literally the best foodie show ever! The quality of the show is professional and better than many syndicated shows. Fantastic work!
You have great on-screen chemistry. More episodes please!
I've literally binged watched you none stop all week! When watcing this, you get a taste of traditions, cultures, values, and I love how up close and personal you're able to get! Japan is definitely on my list!

This is definitely the most cozy, cute, fun pairings of friends trying stuff together! Great vibe Shizuka & Sonny!!!☺️
Agreed. And they're the total opposite of the other Sonny and her miserable co-hosts on that lamestream television show that shall remain nameless.
fantastic chapter, Shizuka is adorable.
we need another adventure with shizuka. the chemistry is amazing & great editing
bet his gf doesn't appreciate it as much
I love Shizuka! She's adorable and hilarious. I love this episode 😂🥰
Am I Crazy or did she have some attraction towards the white guy
The host/co-host relationship absolutely took this segment to another level I love the chemistry
BEST cohost for sure..Shizzy is just so sweet and wholesome lol. Great playfulness between both
*Your video is really good, there were many moments where I laughed a lot. Thank you. I hope the audience will always support your team.*
I've been wondering why i love watching random food shows like this, and I realized I just love seeing people happy, and food makes people happy.
Food is happiness ☺️
This is absolutely one of your very best videos. The co-host and you are a fantastic combination... The chemistry is just perfect Hope to see many more with her and you put together.
You guys make great team! Shizzyyy gives out great vibes and a smile that’s so addicting. Keep up the good work SONNY!
This was a heck of an experience just to look at!!! Great job by everyone involved!
This was a GREAT episode, Sonny and Shizuka did an amazing job :D I'd love to be back in Japan again ASAP.
This dual should have its own series. Would make every video this much interesting!
I smiled the entire show. Wonderfully done on all accounts!
Outstanding show, I have enjoyed learning foods and seeing cultures across the world. Thank you!
This series as gotten me smiling and happy whole time! Nothing but good vibes :)
I love the full documentary episodes. You're awesome man. It's cool that you have a good sense of humor
I absolutely love this food show, Sonny is the man, Makes me so hungry though
The Fukuoka was a perfect episode to end. It was a beautiful night to end the journey with. I was here to enjoy the culture of Japan but I loved how each part of the video was structured.
Shizuka is absolutely gorgeous and has a ton of charisma for the overall mood of the show. Hope to see her again. You guys have tremendous chemistry. Maybe you can do a spinoff together - Bestest ever food review show :P
aint gonna happen
I love this channel so much!! I’m learning so much about the world, ethics, culture and foods. 😮 never I’ve seen rarest food in Japan.
Great insight to any food and travels in question,where and what! Avid fan,keep it up.Cheers!
You remind me of Anthony Bourdain.. The way you talk us through your show feels just like Anthony's style.. Experiencing other cultures through food.. Your show sir, is a work of art..
No one will ever be even nearly as good as Anthony.
I love how Shizuka talks, it's like an audio dub for this vlog 😅 And of course the energy and her smile 😊😁
And the fact that she is absolutely beautiful.
Best episode you’ve done! You’re so genuine and always fun to watch with! More power to you. May God blesses you more strength and delightfulness so you could continue you passion and inspire all walks of life. Cheers to you channel success! 🥂
i still cant move on this Series’s with shizuka Anderson ❤
