1
00:00:01,000 --> 00:00:02,667
You know, people are
asking me all the time,
2
00:00:02,667 --> 00:00:04,467
"Hey, Guy, that one joint
you checked out
in that one city
3
00:00:04,467 --> 00:00:06,600
when you were doing Triple D,
how are they doing?"
4
00:00:06,600 --> 00:00:08,433
You know, I don't know.
We should check it out.
5
00:00:10,667 --> 00:00:13,500
Over the years, I've seen
and tasted it all.
6
00:00:13,500 --> 00:00:15,100
This is ridiculous, dude.
7
00:00:15,100 --> 00:00:17,767
But it turns out,
it was only the beginning.
8
00:00:17,767 --> 00:00:19,867
Because Triple D joints
have been blowing up,
9
00:00:19,867 --> 00:00:22,233
and we're going back
to see what's cooking.
10
00:00:23,166 --> 00:00:24,500
Like on this trip.
11
00:00:24,500 --> 00:00:26,567
It's first-class culinary...
12
00:00:26,567 --> 00:00:27,467
He's the bossa of the masa
13
00:00:27,467 --> 00:00:29,266
...with worldwide flavor.
14
00:00:29,266 --> 00:00:31,000
Mm. [muttering]
15
00:00:31,467 --> 00:00:33,200
I said, "That's ridiculous."
16
00:00:33,200 --> 00:00:36,100
Like a taco tamale
takeover in Indianapolis.
17
00:00:36,100 --> 00:00:38,967
-Nationwide.
-Nationwide tamales.
18
00:00:38,967 --> 00:00:41,800
A multicultural mash-up
in St. Louis.
19
00:00:41,800 --> 00:00:43,667
Italian. Gyro.
20
00:00:43,667 --> 00:00:45,133
It's one of the best things
I've ever had.
21
00:00:46,200 --> 00:00:49,100
[Guy] And I'm joining my man
G. Garvin in Georgia...
22
00:00:49,100 --> 00:00:50,767
-G, I'll tell you how it is.
-Tell me.
23
00:00:50,767 --> 00:00:51,867
...for ramen...
24
00:00:51,867 --> 00:00:53,000
I want to be buried in that.
25
00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:54,767
-...and ribs.
-It's crazy, right?
26
00:00:54,767 --> 00:00:56,367
It's the best
that you can get.
27
00:00:56,367 --> 00:00:57,367
[Guy] Right on the money.
28
00:00:57,367 --> 00:00:59,367
It's definitely what
we look for in Triple D.
29
00:00:59,367 --> 00:01:02,166
Galbi ribs
for the Triple-D Nation.
30
00:01:02,166 --> 00:01:04,467
[Guy] Familiar faces,
new places
31
00:01:04,467 --> 00:01:06,667
and more
off-the-hook flavors.
32
00:01:06,667 --> 00:01:08,233
This is Triple-D Nation.
33
00:01:14,100 --> 00:01:15,800
So I'm right outside
of Atlanta, Georgia--
34
00:01:15,800 --> 00:01:17,700
Dude, you're going
to love this place.
35
00:01:17,700 --> 00:01:20,800
-It's got the amazing sushi.
-With my buddy G. Garvin.
36
00:01:20,800 --> 00:01:21,767
I mean, it's fresh stuff.
37
00:01:21,767 --> 00:01:24,066
It's got ramen,
all different kinds of ramen.
38
00:01:24,066 --> 00:01:25,367
The broth is amazing.
39
00:01:25,367 --> 00:01:27,367
It's the Asian chicken wings.
40
00:01:27,367 --> 00:01:29,567
You got to see
what this guy's doing here.
41
00:01:29,567 --> 00:01:31,400
[Guy] My buddy
G. Garvin was not wrong.
42
00:01:31,400 --> 00:01:33,867
This place,
you had to see to believe.
43
00:01:33,867 --> 00:01:35,166
And now,
they're seeing double
44
00:01:35,166 --> 00:01:37,000
with the second spot
in the city.
45
00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:38,967
Guy, come on, man.
What are you doing?
46
00:01:38,967 --> 00:01:40,467
This is Yakitori Jinbei.
47
00:01:40,467 --> 00:01:42,600
My man, baby.
Let's go!
48
00:01:45,266 --> 00:01:47,567
I've got your galbi ribs.
49
00:01:47,567 --> 00:01:49,667
I gotta say this restaurant
is, like, top notch.
50
00:01:49,667 --> 00:01:52,100
We saw the show
back in 2018.
51
00:01:52,100 --> 00:01:54,066
It brought in more people
because they're curious.
52
00:01:54,066 --> 00:01:56,000
If it's good food,
people are gonna
talk about it.
53
00:01:56,000 --> 00:01:57,367
The food is amazing.
54
00:01:57,367 --> 00:01:58,900
Miso cod. Order up.
55
00:01:58,900 --> 00:02:03,467
[Guy] And the man behind
it all is still eye doctor
turned chef Jae Choi.
56
00:02:03,467 --> 00:02:05,500
I can't stop
talking about this place.
57
00:02:05,500 --> 00:02:07,667
He has been ranting
like this in the car.
58
00:02:07,667 --> 00:02:09,900
Da-da-da-da-da.
On and on and on.
59
00:02:09,900 --> 00:02:11,400
Thank you.
60
00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:14,400
I figured because,
uh, G. Money Garvin
61
00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:16,667
was at this visit
four years ago,
62
00:02:16,667 --> 00:02:19,166
that we should probably
bring him back in
for another feeding.
63
00:02:19,166 --> 00:02:20,266
Uh, another meeting.
64
00:02:20,266 --> 00:02:22,200
-Um--
-[all laughing]
65
00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:24,100
Do you want
to go through the list
of foods that you love?
66
00:02:24,100 --> 00:02:25,600
Love the ramen.
67
00:02:25,600 --> 00:02:27,066
Jonesing for it since.
68
00:02:27,066 --> 00:02:28,767
[man] One katsu curry ramen.
69
00:02:28,767 --> 00:02:29,767
So what are we making first?
70
00:02:29,767 --> 00:02:32,000
We're making a broth
for the katsu curry ramen.
71
00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:33,567
Ramen, man,
is all about the broth.
72
00:02:33,567 --> 00:02:34,767
This is gonna be interesting.
73
00:02:34,767 --> 00:02:36,467
So we've got pork
and chicken bones.
74
00:02:36,467 --> 00:02:38,166
[Jae] Pre-boiled, washed.
75
00:02:38,166 --> 00:02:40,166
-[Guy] Next up.
-[Jae] So we're gonna
bag the kombu,
76
00:02:40,166 --> 00:02:42,934
dried anchovies,
bonito flakes.
77
00:02:44,500 --> 00:02:46,800
We got pulverized
shiitake mushrooms.
78
00:02:48,767 --> 00:02:52,367
Roasted leeks,
roasted onions,
roasted garlic,
79
00:02:52,367 --> 00:02:54,266
-some roasted ginger.
-[Guy] How long?
80
00:02:54,266 --> 00:02:55,567
-Eighteen hours.
-Whoa!
81
00:02:55,567 --> 00:02:58,567
[Jae] We add salt,
sugar and fish powder
82
00:02:58,567 --> 00:03:00,900
and then let it go
for another six.
83
00:03:00,900 --> 00:03:02,233
What's the next step?
84
00:03:02,233 --> 00:03:06,066
[Jae] The pork katsu,
start off with a whole loin
of pork loin,
85
00:03:06,066 --> 00:03:08,300
A whole loin of pork loin.
86
00:03:08,300 --> 00:03:10,367
I, I see, see,
what you're saying, saying.
87
00:03:10,367 --> 00:03:11,033
Thank you. Thank you.
88
00:03:11,033 --> 00:03:13,533
Take this and tenderize it.
89
00:03:15,667 --> 00:03:18,867
Salt it a little bit,
dredge it in AP flour,
90
00:03:18,867 --> 00:03:22,467
put it into the egg wash,
dredge it and panko.
91
00:03:22,467 --> 00:03:24,433
-[Guy] And this will fry?
-[Jae] 350.
92
00:03:25,500 --> 00:03:27,767
-The broth is ready
-[Guy] Okay.
93
00:03:27,767 --> 00:03:29,900
-[Garvin] Smells good.
-[Jae] And the noodles.
94
00:03:29,900 --> 00:03:32,166
-Here we go.
-Take the pork.
95
00:03:32,166 --> 00:03:33,166
Boy, that sounds crunchy.
96
00:03:33,166 --> 00:03:35,166
[Jae] Top this
with some cabbage.
97
00:03:35,166 --> 00:03:37,000
Now we will add that.
98
00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:39,300
Carrots and corn.
99
00:03:39,300 --> 00:03:40,500
Green onions.
100
00:03:40,500 --> 00:03:42,967
You and G. Garvin
have been friends
for all these years,
101
00:03:42,967 --> 00:03:46,500
and yet, you've chosen
to make just me
a bowl of ramen.
102
00:03:46,500 --> 00:03:47,667
G, I'll tell you how it is.
103
00:03:47,667 --> 00:03:49,266
[Garvin] Tell me.
104
00:03:49,266 --> 00:03:50,333
[Guy] Mm.
105
00:03:50,333 --> 00:03:52,467
[Garvin] Yeah, the flavor
on that broth is insane.
106
00:03:52,467 --> 00:03:54,200
[Guy] And I love the little
carrots and corn.
107
00:03:54,200 --> 00:03:55,767
-It's good.
-[Guy] It's not traditional.
108
00:03:55,767 --> 00:03:57,100
It's unique and it's funky.
109
00:03:57,100 --> 00:03:59,100
Noodles are tender,
broth is rich.
110
00:03:59,100 --> 00:04:01,300
And the creativity is an A.
Nice job.
111
00:04:02,166 --> 00:04:04,400
[customer] The ramen here
is spectacular.
112
00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:06,767
It's the best
that you can get in Atlanta.
113
00:04:06,767 --> 00:04:08,066
How many different ramens
do you have now?
114
00:04:08,066 --> 00:04:10,166
Eight different ramens,
three different broths.
115
00:04:10,166 --> 00:04:11,367
[Guy] What'd you bring us?
116
00:04:11,367 --> 00:04:14,266
So we got Asian
five-spice duck ramen.
117
00:04:14,266 --> 00:04:16,266
It's nice to have
a new flavor.
118
00:04:16,266 --> 00:04:19,567
Fabulous tender duck.
119
00:04:19,567 --> 00:04:22,300
And once again,
I only made one ramen
for the both of you guys.
120
00:04:22,300 --> 00:04:24,400
He doesn't need
to be involved in this.
121
00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:26,133
I don't feel bad about this.
122
00:04:27,266 --> 00:04:28,467
And how did you do the duck?
123
00:04:28,467 --> 00:04:31,467
We marinated it
in a misoyaki marinade.
124
00:04:31,467 --> 00:04:34,900
White miso, sake,
mirin, sugar.
125
00:04:34,900 --> 00:04:36,266
Like a sweet miso.
126
00:04:36,266 --> 00:04:39,000
We sous vide it.
127
00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:41,367
Way to go extra
chefy on me, okay?
"We sous vide it."
128
00:04:41,367 --> 00:04:43,600
And then
we crisp up the skin.
129
00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:48,200
Add some of our
green onion, ginger oil,
the noodles.
130
00:04:48,200 --> 00:04:52,400
Ladle the broth,
stewed shitake mushrooms,
our steamed bok choy,
131
00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:54,867
spring onions,
our duck breast here.
132
00:04:54,867 --> 00:04:57,000
Ooh, that duck is smoking.
133
00:04:57,000 --> 00:04:59,600
-That duck is next level.
-[Garvin] Mm-hm.
134
00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:01,967
[man] Duck ramen.
135
00:05:01,967 --> 00:05:05,367
The duck is so tender,
so much flavor.
136
00:05:05,367 --> 00:05:07,467
[customer] It just melts
in your mouth.
137
00:05:07,467 --> 00:05:10,767
The broth here is so rich,
it is perfect.
138
00:05:10,767 --> 00:05:13,200
I just want to drink it up.
139
00:05:14,100 --> 00:05:17,467
This is our chicken broth
with some duck fat.
140
00:05:17,467 --> 00:05:19,867
Have some chicken feet,
the backbones,
141
00:05:19,867 --> 00:05:22,500
and boil it
for about four hours,
142
00:05:22,500 --> 00:05:24,367
and add our veggies.
143
00:05:24,367 --> 00:05:25,800
Onions that we've charred off.
144
00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:29,667
Charred green onions,
charred ginger and garlic.
145
00:05:29,667 --> 00:05:31,767
This is going to go
for another four hours.
146
00:05:31,767 --> 00:05:36,934
Salt, sugar, chicken base,
shiitake mushroom stock,
heavy cream.
147
00:05:38,100 --> 00:05:39,400
Oh, I'm telling you.
148
00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:40,767
Yeah, that broth
is beast mode.
149
00:05:40,767 --> 00:05:42,133
I wanna be buried in that.
150
00:05:43,367 --> 00:05:46,166
The ramen here
is very comparable
to Japanese ramen,
151
00:05:46,166 --> 00:05:49,300
which is
quite the compliment.
152
00:05:49,300 --> 00:05:52,667
All right, here's the deal,
hanging out with my man
G. Garvin in Atlanta.
153
00:05:52,667 --> 00:05:55,867
Where this ramen empire
is really starting to roll.
154
00:05:55,867 --> 00:05:57,066
And you have
another restaurant concept?
155
00:05:57,066 --> 00:05:58,867
-Yum.
-We'll see you in a bit.
156
00:05:58,867 --> 00:06:00,900
G, I'm finishing this off.
You stand back right now.
157
00:06:03,500 --> 00:06:04,734
Welcome back.
158
00:06:04,734 --> 00:06:05,867
Triple D hanging out
right outside of Atlanta,
Georgia,
159
00:06:05,867 --> 00:06:09,000
-with the one
and only G. Garvin.
-G. Garvin.
160
00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:11,367
We're at a funky joint
called Yakitori Jinbei.
161
00:06:11,367 --> 00:06:13,800
G. Garvin's optometrist
says he wants to open
a restaurant.
162
00:06:13,800 --> 00:06:15,567
G says, "Don't do it."
163
00:06:15,567 --> 00:06:18,166
He says,
"Don't worry, I got a place
that's closed down.
164
00:06:18,166 --> 00:06:20,266
I'm gonna go do some
test kitchen in there."
165
00:06:20,266 --> 00:06:21,433
People come in and eat.
166
00:06:21,433 --> 00:06:23,800
He says, "You know what?
Just turn the old sign
back on."
167
00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:25,100
You just adopted the name.
168
00:06:25,100 --> 00:06:27,500
That is the weirdest thing
I've ever heard.
169
00:06:27,500 --> 00:06:28,667
And you have
another restaurant concept?
170
00:06:28,667 --> 00:06:29,867
You guys are partners
on a concept?
171
00:06:29,867 --> 00:06:30,800
-Yeah.
-[Garvin] Yeah.
172
00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:32,100
We, uh-- He--
173
00:06:32,100 --> 00:06:33,967
I can only imagine
what this is.
174
00:06:33,967 --> 00:06:37,200
[Jae] We call it Jinbei West,
with his, kind of,
West Coast influence.
175
00:06:37,200 --> 00:06:41,300
Incredible ramen
coupled with some
really great sushi.
176
00:06:41,300 --> 00:06:42,634
I'm a guy who loves food.
177
00:06:42,634 --> 00:06:46,700
And because he has
so much passion for food,
it only made sense.
178
00:06:46,700 --> 00:06:47,800
[customer] I love the sushi.
179
00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:50,467
The lobster sushi roll, yum.
180
00:06:50,467 --> 00:06:53,400
I think I've tried almost
everything on the menu here.
181
00:06:53,400 --> 00:06:54,667
You can't go wrong.
182
00:06:54,667 --> 00:06:55,600
What else we got?
183
00:06:55,600 --> 00:06:58,367
Uh, we've got traditional
Korean LA galbi.
184
00:06:58,367 --> 00:07:00,700
The LA galbi is, like, sweet
and spicy at the same time,
185
00:07:00,700 --> 00:07:01,500
which I really appreciate.
186
00:07:01,500 --> 00:07:03,400
It's, like,
one of my favorites.
187
00:07:03,400 --> 00:07:05,667
[Jae] This is gochujang glaze.
188
00:07:05,667 --> 00:07:07,800
Gochujang is, kind of,
like the Korean ketchup.
189
00:07:07,800 --> 00:07:09,400
We'll use that as our base.
190
00:07:09,400 --> 00:07:12,500
Soy sauce,
crushed garlic, mirin,
191
00:07:12,500 --> 00:07:15,266
Kewpie mayonnaise,
vinegar, sugar,
192
00:07:15,266 --> 00:07:17,700
yuzu juice,
smoked paprika.
193
00:07:17,700 --> 00:07:19,700
We'll drizzle this
over the galbi,
194
00:07:19,700 --> 00:07:20,467
get them on the grill,
195
00:07:20,467 --> 00:07:21,867
and we'll get
this dish plated.
196
00:07:21,867 --> 00:07:24,567
Pickled cucumber salad,
drizzle the sauce.
197
00:07:24,567 --> 00:07:27,200
Galbi ribs
for the Triple-D Nation.
198
00:07:28,600 --> 00:07:29,800
So, it's crazy, right?
199
00:07:31,467 --> 00:07:33,000
This is delicious.
200
00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:34,867
It's mindful,
it's simplistic,
201
00:07:34,867 --> 00:07:37,066
but it's also
that deep, rich flavor.
202
00:07:37,066 --> 00:07:40,266
And it's the kind of thing
that when you walk in,
you've got to get it right.
203
00:07:40,266 --> 00:07:42,000
But when you get it right,
people are gonna
come back for it.
204
00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:43,500
Well, thank you.
205
00:07:43,500 --> 00:07:45,367
[customer] The taste
is very complex,
206
00:07:45,367 --> 00:07:48,100
so your first bite
is different
than the last bite.
207
00:07:48,100 --> 00:07:49,033
It just melts in your mouth.
208
00:07:49,033 --> 00:07:52,533
It's perfectly cooked,
seasoned very well.
209
00:07:53,300 --> 00:07:56,500
I still get people
that walk up to me and say,
210
00:07:56,500 --> 00:07:58,266
"Is the food
really that good?"
211
00:07:58,266 --> 00:08:00,800
I'm like, "Believe it or not,
I'm not kidding you."
212
00:08:00,800 --> 00:08:01,800
Delicious.
213
00:08:01,800 --> 00:08:03,200
I love this restaurant.
214
00:08:03,200 --> 00:08:06,100
We love the Korean
fried chicken here.
215
00:08:06,100 --> 00:08:08,166
It's delicious.
216
00:08:08,166 --> 00:08:10,266
I couldn't find any good
Korean fried chicken
217
00:08:10,266 --> 00:08:11,767
so I decided
to make one myself.
218
00:08:11,767 --> 00:08:13,800
What is good
Korean fried chicken?
219
00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:15,767
-It's gotta have
sweet heat and garlic.
-Okay.
220
00:08:15,767 --> 00:08:17,400
[Jae] So we're just
gonna build it.
221
00:08:18,166 --> 00:08:20,867
Hit it with some sesame,
green onions.
222
00:08:20,867 --> 00:08:23,133
-It's the Korean
fried chicken.
-[Garvin exhales sharply]
223
00:08:25,100 --> 00:08:26,700
-Oh, that's crunchy.
-[Garvin] Mm.
224
00:08:26,700 --> 00:08:28,467
[Guy] That right there
is money.
225
00:08:28,467 --> 00:08:30,300
Flavored really well,
sauces have got some heat.
226
00:08:30,300 --> 00:08:31,600
You really
pulled it off, man.
227
00:08:31,600 --> 00:08:33,333
It's nice, man.
Good job.
228
00:08:34,300 --> 00:08:38,166
It's a different take
of just, like, the regular
Korean barbecue places.
229
00:08:38,166 --> 00:08:41,600
You cannot find
a better restaurant
in a better location.
230
00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:43,367
It's definitely what
we look for in Triple D.
231
00:08:43,367 --> 00:08:44,600
G knew exactly
where to send me.
232
00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:46,467
-Keep making food like this,
and I'll be back.
-All right.
233
00:08:46,467 --> 00:08:47,667
Making the food
is one thing,
234
00:08:47,667 --> 00:08:49,300
having the creativity
is another thing,
235
00:08:49,300 --> 00:08:51,100
having the ability
to present it
is another thing.
236
00:08:51,100 --> 00:08:54,400
And when you can swim
that far upstream,
that's genius.
237
00:08:54,400 --> 00:08:56,400
Well done, buddy.
Well done.
238
00:08:58,667 --> 00:09:00,100
Coming up in St. Louis...
239
00:09:00,100 --> 00:09:01,567
We're mixing
Italian classics...
240
00:09:01,567 --> 00:09:04,266
-That's a big
ravioli, brother.
-Oh, yeah.
241
00:09:04,266 --> 00:09:05,166
...with a dash of Greek.
242
00:09:05,166 --> 00:09:06,567
Look at that. Mm.
243
00:09:06,567 --> 00:09:08,266
And a big dose
of brotherly love.
244
00:09:08,266 --> 00:09:10,533
Watch out for these guys.
245
00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:15,967
So I'm here on the south side
of St. Louis, Missouri,
246
00:09:15,967 --> 00:09:18,867
at one of the
highest points in the city,
known as The Hill.
247
00:09:18,867 --> 00:09:23,000
Now, this area is loaded
with great Italian restaurants
and specialty stores.
248
00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:25,900
But this joint I found
back in 2012
249
00:09:25,900 --> 00:09:28,867
had a twist you could not
have seen coming.
250
00:09:28,867 --> 00:09:32,567
And once the word was out,
they had to make room
for the masses.
251
00:09:32,567 --> 00:09:35,767
It's Italian-Greek,
owned by two brothers.
252
00:09:35,767 --> 00:09:37,600
This is Anthonino's Taverna.
253
00:09:41,000 --> 00:09:43,266
One salmon pasta for the bar.
254
00:09:43,266 --> 00:09:44,967
I'm Italian,
and I love coming here.
255
00:09:44,967 --> 00:09:46,767
The food feels
like back home.
256
00:09:46,767 --> 00:09:48,867
Ladies, I have your
roasted garlic pizza.
257
00:09:48,867 --> 00:09:51,400
[customer] It's so awesome
that this place has grown
since Guy visited.
258
00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:53,400
I was here on Wednesday,
I'm back here today.
259
00:09:53,400 --> 00:09:57,000
You can get gyros,
to pizzas, fresh pastas.
260
00:09:57,000 --> 00:09:59,100
And it comes from
their family's recipes.
261
00:09:59,100 --> 00:10:02,500
[Guy] That's the family
of Anthony and Rosario
Scarato,
262
00:10:02,500 --> 00:10:07,300
who inherited these gems
from their Italian dad
and Greek mom.
263
00:10:07,300 --> 00:10:09,867
We just try to do everything
like you're coming to my house
for dinner.
264
00:10:09,867 --> 00:10:11,033
That's our motto.
265
00:10:11,033 --> 00:10:12,767
Oh, so when I come to your
house for dinner, I gotta pay?
266
00:10:12,767 --> 00:10:13,467
Oh, you gotta pay.
267
00:10:13,467 --> 00:10:15,467
Toasted ravioli for bar four.
268
00:10:15,467 --> 00:10:18,567
Toasted ravioli is definitely
a huge kick here.
269
00:10:18,567 --> 00:10:21,367
Regionally, in St. Louis,
toasted ravioli is so popular.
270
00:10:21,367 --> 00:10:22,700
We're gonna make
toasted raviolis.
271
00:10:22,700 --> 00:10:23,567
Ground beef.
272
00:10:23,567 --> 00:10:25,367
-Ricotta cheese.
-Ricotta.
273
00:10:25,367 --> 00:10:27,867
Pecorino Romano,
black pepper, salt.
274
00:10:27,867 --> 00:10:29,033
-[Guy] Some onion.
-[Anthony] Some onion,
raw onion.
275
00:10:29,033 --> 00:10:31,400
-[Guy] Granulated garlic.
-[Anthony] Granulated garlic.
276
00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:32,767
What we like to do
is a nice paste.
277
00:10:32,767 --> 00:10:34,400
[Guy] Paste? We don't
want texture in this?
278
00:10:34,400 --> 00:10:36,300
-No, we want it
to be smooth.
-[Guy] And fluffy.
279
00:10:36,300 --> 00:10:38,367
They're like
little meat pillows.
280
00:10:38,367 --> 00:10:41,500
-[Guy] So the meat pillow
mixture is made?
-[Anthony] Yes.
281
00:10:41,500 --> 00:10:42,934
-Now we're gonna make--
-We're gonna--
282
00:10:42,934 --> 00:10:45,100
-With that apparatus?
-With that apparatus that
we had specially made.
283
00:10:45,100 --> 00:10:46,500
-Okay, let's do it.
-Okay.
284
00:10:46,500 --> 00:10:48,000
So first,
we're gonna take our dough.
285
00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:49,367
Brush egg wash on there.
286
00:10:49,367 --> 00:10:50,667
Get the mixture.
287
00:10:50,667 --> 00:10:52,567
-So you just
plop those in there?
-[Anthony] Yes.
288
00:10:52,567 --> 00:10:54,066
How many raviolis
you guys go through a week?
289
00:10:54,066 --> 00:10:55,033
[Anthony] About 1,500.
290
00:10:55,033 --> 00:10:56,800
-Here, I'll let you
take care of it.
-Okay.
291
00:10:58,100 --> 00:11:00,300
Center it. We're just
gonna press it there.
292
00:11:00,300 --> 00:11:01,266
It drops into its holes.
293
00:11:01,266 --> 00:11:03,200
-And then
we just bring it down.
-And down.
294
00:11:05,567 --> 00:11:07,367
-That's a big
ravioli, brother.
-Oh, yeah.
295
00:11:07,367 --> 00:11:08,967
[Guy] In the
Italian breadcrumbs.
296
00:11:08,967 --> 00:11:11,166
-Ready to rock and roll.
Gonna be nice and crispy.
-[Anthony] Yes.
297
00:11:11,166 --> 00:11:12,467
[Guy] This is a regular order?
298
00:11:12,467 --> 00:11:14,100
Yeah, it's a big order.
Yeah.
299
00:11:14,100 --> 00:11:15,867
Set that marinara
in the center.
300
00:11:15,867 --> 00:11:17,934
A little fresh
Romano on there.
301
00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:21,166
Mm.
302
00:11:21,166 --> 00:11:22,266
It's got a nice bite to it.
303
00:11:22,266 --> 00:11:24,166
A lot of flavor. Mm.
304
00:11:24,166 --> 00:11:27,200
Look at the amount of filling
that goes inside of this.
305
00:11:28,166 --> 00:11:29,800
[muttering]
306
00:11:30,200 --> 00:11:31,667
I said, "That's ridiculous."
307
00:11:31,667 --> 00:11:33,567
[waitress] I've got
your toasted ravioli.
308
00:11:33,567 --> 00:11:35,867
[Anthony] Our toasted
ravioli, we're selling
tremendous amounts
309
00:11:35,867 --> 00:11:37,667
of 6,000 plus,
you know, a week.
310
00:11:37,667 --> 00:11:39,467
[customer] The filling
and how it's flavored,
311
00:11:39,467 --> 00:11:41,700
but also the size of it
makes it stand out.
312
00:11:41,700 --> 00:11:44,467
They put a lot
of thought into everything
and it really shows.
313
00:11:44,467 --> 00:11:46,266
Marinara going in
on bracioles.
314
00:11:46,266 --> 00:11:47,800
The beef braciole
is, like, rolled
315
00:11:47,800 --> 00:11:50,700
and with spinach,
provolone cheese
and prosciutto.
316
00:11:50,700 --> 00:11:52,300
It's one of the best things
I've ever had.
317
00:11:53,100 --> 00:11:55,867
We're gonna start with
olive oil here on top
of our flank steak.
318
00:11:55,867 --> 00:11:57,000
Rubbed in real nice.
319
00:11:57,000 --> 00:11:58,500
Salt, pepper on top.
320
00:11:58,500 --> 00:12:01,400
Fresh garlic on there.
Prosciutto, provolone.
321
00:12:01,400 --> 00:12:02,900
I'm gonna saute
a little spinach.
322
00:12:05,100 --> 00:12:08,266
Roll that baby up
and bring the sides in
a little bit here.
323
00:12:08,266 --> 00:12:09,667
We're going
to pan sear these up.
324
00:12:09,667 --> 00:12:10,934
And we reduce it
with red wine
325
00:12:10,934 --> 00:12:13,567
and finish it
with our marinara to help
tenderize that meat.
326
00:12:13,567 --> 00:12:15,066
-We're making
some marinara.
-Yeah.
327
00:12:15,066 --> 00:12:17,567
We're gonna add
our tomatoes, basil.
328
00:12:17,567 --> 00:12:18,967
Just the whole basil,
in as it goes?
329
00:12:18,967 --> 00:12:19,934
Yeah, we like
to leave it whole.
330
00:12:19,934 --> 00:12:21,467
-Roasted garlic.
-[Guy] Roasted garlic, great.
331
00:12:21,467 --> 00:12:25,567
[Anthony] Black pepper,
salt, sugar, extra virgin
olive oil, red wine.
332
00:12:25,567 --> 00:12:28,467
-And these raw onions
are gonna go just right in?
-[Anthony] Yes.
333
00:12:28,467 --> 00:12:31,600
And just let it cook down
until it's a nice dark
red color.
334
00:12:31,600 --> 00:12:32,900
-Then we're ready to rock.
-Yeah.
335
00:12:32,900 --> 00:12:36,667
Our marinara sauce
with a little arugula,
Romano cheese on top.
336
00:12:36,667 --> 00:12:38,166
And here's our braciole.
337
00:12:38,166 --> 00:12:39,667
Your braciole.
338
00:12:39,667 --> 00:12:42,066
It is a flank steak,
so you'll get
the meaty part of it.
339
00:12:42,066 --> 00:12:43,667
You can really taste
the prosciutto
340
00:12:43,667 --> 00:12:45,300
and all the
different flavors.
341
00:12:45,300 --> 00:12:47,367
And the marinara
is so rich and robust.
342
00:12:47,367 --> 00:12:49,266
Pepperoni, sausage,
mushroom coming up.
343
00:12:49,266 --> 00:12:50,367
The food is fantastic.
344
00:12:50,367 --> 00:12:52,066
You get a lot
of different vibes.
345
00:12:52,066 --> 00:12:54,667
You can do Italian,
you can do Greek.
346
00:12:54,667 --> 00:12:56,500
Italian. Gyro.
347
00:12:57,166 --> 00:12:59,166
Italian. Gyro.
348
00:12:59,166 --> 00:13:00,967
-Actually,
you're Italian-Greek.
-Yeah, I'm both.
349
00:13:00,967 --> 00:13:02,667
All right, gonna need
some more mozza on top.
350
00:13:02,667 --> 00:13:03,667
Everything is good.
351
00:13:03,667 --> 00:13:05,667
I haven't had
a bad thing yet.
352
00:13:05,667 --> 00:13:06,867
[man] Dolmades dinner.
353
00:13:06,867 --> 00:13:08,266
-[Guy] Dolmades.
-[Anthony] Dolmades.
354
00:13:08,266 --> 00:13:10,100
All right, so first,
you start off with
ground lamb.
355
00:13:10,100 --> 00:13:11,000
-Ground beef.
-Ground beef.
356
00:13:11,000 --> 00:13:14,567
Onions, rice,
fresh parsley, olive oil.
357
00:13:14,567 --> 00:13:15,867
-[Guy] Mint.
-[Anthony] Yeah.
358
00:13:15,867 --> 00:13:17,967
Here's some fresh garlic.
Start mixing.
359
00:13:17,967 --> 00:13:19,100
-Good luck to you.
-Thank you.
360
00:13:19,100 --> 00:13:20,600
-We mix.
-[Guy] You double leaf?
361
00:13:20,600 --> 00:13:22,166
You don't just double,
you triple.
362
00:13:22,166 --> 00:13:23,867
-What are you making,
a Greek burrito?
-Yeah.
363
00:13:23,867 --> 00:13:25,100
Center it like that.
364
00:13:25,100 --> 00:13:26,367
Now, bring the sides in.
365
00:13:26,367 --> 00:13:28,166
Just, kind of, roll
like a burrito, basically,
you're right.
366
00:13:28,166 --> 00:13:29,467
-[Guy] Look at that thing.
-[Anthony] Like that.
367
00:13:29,467 --> 00:13:31,767
And then, basically, we just,
kind of, stack them in
as you go.
368
00:13:31,767 --> 00:13:34,767
Load it up, you pour
the chicken broth in there,
top it with some lemons.
369
00:13:34,767 --> 00:13:36,000
-Let them simmer
for an hour?
-[Anthony] At least.
370
00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:37,266
That's how we do it.
371
00:13:37,266 --> 00:13:39,100
Now we're doing
a Greek tzatziki.
372
00:13:39,100 --> 00:13:42,667
Greek yogurt, cucumbers,
and then lemon juice,
373
00:13:42,667 --> 00:13:45,367
white pepper,
little salt, Greek olive oil.
374
00:13:45,367 --> 00:13:46,867
[Guy] Mix this together
and let it set up.
375
00:13:46,867 --> 00:13:50,000
-And this is what we're gonna
serve with the dolmades?
-With the dolmades.
376
00:13:51,266 --> 00:13:52,433
Look at that.
377
00:13:53,767 --> 00:13:56,000
Mm. You dip that
a little in the tzatziki.
378
00:13:58,500 --> 00:14:00,066
That's fantastic.
379
00:14:00,066 --> 00:14:03,767
Originally, when Guy came,
we had a little dining room
and a small kitchen.
380
00:14:03,767 --> 00:14:04,567
From there,
we've expanded it.
381
00:14:04,567 --> 00:14:06,400
We put the addition
on the back.
382
00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:08,200
There's more space,
more tables.
383
00:14:08,200 --> 00:14:11,367
They're blowing up,
and it's great to see.
384
00:14:11,367 --> 00:14:13,700
Pizza's up. Gotta get
these pies out the window.
385
00:14:13,700 --> 00:14:16,100
They're a staple
that has been around
for a long time.
386
00:14:16,100 --> 00:14:18,767
It's like a big family.
It's more than a restaurant.
387
00:14:18,767 --> 00:14:22,066
I love coming to these,
you know, these historic
areas of cities,
388
00:14:22,066 --> 00:14:25,066
and seeing where
all this ethnic
influence happened.
389
00:14:25,066 --> 00:14:26,100
And the food is legit.
390
00:14:26,100 --> 00:14:28,100
-Thank you.
-Awesome job.
391
00:14:28,100 --> 00:14:29,467
Thank you, brother.
392
00:14:29,467 --> 00:14:32,233
-Hey. [chuckles]
-Watch out for these guys.
393
00:14:34,767 --> 00:14:37,567
And watch out for this
Midwestern Mexican spot.
394
00:14:37,567 --> 00:14:38,400
Look at that.
395
00:14:38,400 --> 00:14:41,166
-Winning folks over...
-It's amazing.
396
00:14:41,166 --> 00:14:42,667
...one taco and tamale...
397
00:14:42,667 --> 00:14:43,667
That's generous, baby.
398
00:14:43,667 --> 00:14:45,066
...at a time.
399
00:14:45,066 --> 00:14:48,500
-You're leading the tamale
revolution in Indianapolis.
-That's right.
400
00:14:50,900 --> 00:14:52,567
I'm here in Indianapolis
to check out a joint
401
00:14:52,567 --> 00:14:56,467
that's cooking up
one of my favorite foods
in mass quantity.
402
00:14:56,467 --> 00:14:57,900
That would be tamales.
403
00:14:57,900 --> 00:15:03,000
Back in 2011,
this place was serving up
more than 150,000 a year.
404
00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:05,467
And now they're still
doing it all by hand.
405
00:15:05,467 --> 00:15:06,867
And they're going national.
406
00:15:06,867 --> 00:15:08,500
At The Tamale Place.
407
00:15:12,367 --> 00:15:14,000
[woman]
Chicken green tamales.
408
00:15:14,000 --> 00:15:16,367
The Tamale Place has the
best tamales in Indianapolis.
409
00:15:16,367 --> 00:15:17,967
Acapulco bowl coming up.
410
00:15:17,967 --> 00:15:20,367
Guy said it was great,
so I had to try it,
and he was right.
411
00:15:20,367 --> 00:15:21,767
I got pork tacos coming up.
412
00:15:21,767 --> 00:15:22,567
It's incredibly authentic,
413
00:15:22,567 --> 00:15:25,200
and the owners
are what makes it.
414
00:15:25,200 --> 00:15:28,667
[Guy] That's husband
and wife, Angela Green
and Vladimir Ronces,
415
00:15:28,667 --> 00:15:30,333
who met in Mexico,
416
00:15:30,333 --> 00:15:34,233
and originally started
this place as a tortilla shop
before switching to tamales.
417
00:15:35,100 --> 00:15:36,867
How many different types
of tamales do you make?
418
00:15:36,867 --> 00:15:38,867
[Angela]
Maybe 15 to 20 right now.
419
00:15:38,867 --> 00:15:41,867
What are you guys--
Is there, like, a meatball
macaroni tamale?
420
00:15:41,867 --> 00:15:43,867
Poblano chili
and cheese tamales.
421
00:15:43,867 --> 00:15:46,467
We have not
taken any shortcuts
from then to now.
422
00:15:46,467 --> 00:15:47,600
We're still doing it
all the way
423
00:15:47,600 --> 00:15:48,867
we always were doing it.
424
00:15:48,867 --> 00:15:52,166
The masa, we say,
is the key ingredient
to any great tamale.
425
00:15:52,166 --> 00:15:53,967
And we make
fresh masa here.
426
00:15:53,967 --> 00:15:55,467
Raw corn, dried.
427
00:15:55,467 --> 00:15:57,066
This is to grind it up
to make the masa.
428
00:15:57,066 --> 00:15:58,000
But first,
what do we got to do?
429
00:15:58,000 --> 00:15:59,500
[Vladimir] Just gonna put
the lime there.
430
00:15:59,500 --> 00:16:01,200
-[Guy] The lime
in the boiling water.
-[Vladimir] Then the corn.
431
00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:03,000
[Guy] And how long
is this gonna boil?
Five minutes?
432
00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:04,100
-[Vladimir] Yeah.
-[Guy] Then it's cooled?
433
00:16:04,100 --> 00:16:05,066
You have to wait 12 hours.
434
00:16:05,066 --> 00:16:06,266
Now, it's ready
to be rinsed.
435
00:16:06,266 --> 00:16:07,200
[Guy] Get the skin off of it.
436
00:16:07,200 --> 00:16:08,600
There we go. Skin's off.
437
00:16:08,600 --> 00:16:10,066
And now,
into the grinder.
438
00:16:10,066 --> 00:16:12,266
Yeah, that's nice. Hit it.
439
00:16:12,266 --> 00:16:15,100
So what he's doing is
he's trying to get
the right grind.
440
00:16:15,100 --> 00:16:18,400
Look at that, fresh masa.
That is killer.
441
00:16:18,400 --> 00:16:19,367
Now, you take the masa?
442
00:16:19,367 --> 00:16:20,700
[Vladimir] We divide it
in ten-pound portions
443
00:16:20,700 --> 00:16:23,567
-for the tamales,
for the beef and bread.
-[Guy] Got it.
444
00:16:23,567 --> 00:16:26,567
[whistles] This is gonna
make the shredded beef
for the tamale?
445
00:16:26,567 --> 00:16:28,867
Yeah. Onions, garlic.
I'm gonna do the meat.
446
00:16:28,867 --> 00:16:31,400
-[Guy] Okay.
-More onions,
some more garlic.
447
00:16:31,400 --> 00:16:32,800
Salt, and then some water.
448
00:16:32,800 --> 00:16:34,367
[Guy] So, this is gonna go
for about three hours?
449
00:16:34,367 --> 00:16:35,600
-[Vladimir] That's right.
-[Guy] Okay, brother.
450
00:16:35,600 --> 00:16:37,266
This is all the bases
of the chili sauce.
451
00:16:37,266 --> 00:16:38,467
Ancho, guajillos.
452
00:16:38,467 --> 00:16:40,767
-Pasilla and then the puya.
-Mm-hm.
453
00:16:40,767 --> 00:16:42,367
-Now, we add water.
-Let them seep.
454
00:16:42,367 --> 00:16:44,500
-[Vladimir] Soak overnight.
-[Guy] Nice and soft.
Look at this.
455
00:16:44,500 --> 00:16:46,266
-They puree real nice.
-[Vladimir] That's right.
456
00:16:46,266 --> 00:16:47,867
Pureed chilies
with a little bit of water.
457
00:16:47,867 --> 00:16:49,600
Now, it's time
to make the red sauce.
458
00:16:49,600 --> 00:16:52,767
-Garlic, onion,
black pepper, ground gloves.
-[Guy] Okay.
459
00:16:52,767 --> 00:16:54,667
Salt, tomatoes, water.
460
00:16:54,667 --> 00:16:56,266
-And that's it?
-We blend it.
461
00:16:56,266 --> 00:16:57,634
[Guy] So now
the tomato mixture is done.
462
00:16:57,634 --> 00:16:59,867
Now, we put some of
these peeled chilies
into this one right here.
463
00:16:59,867 --> 00:17:01,867
-All that to cook the beef?
-That's right.
464
00:17:01,867 --> 00:17:03,767
Wow.
A lot of work, man.
465
00:17:03,767 --> 00:17:05,467
So we've got all the beef
shredded apart.
466
00:17:05,467 --> 00:17:07,166
Cool it down.
What are we up to now?
467
00:17:07,166 --> 00:17:09,000
[Vladimir] We want to fry it
a little bit on oil, you know.
468
00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:10,166
Onions.
Burn it a little bit.
469
00:17:10,166 --> 00:17:11,567
-[Guy] Flavor the oil, right.
-[Vladimir] That's right.
470
00:17:11,567 --> 00:17:12,533
[Guy] Got to take
the onion out.
471
00:17:12,533 --> 00:17:14,000
[Vladimir] Now we drop in
the meat in there.
472
00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:15,066
All this meat's gonna go in.
473
00:17:15,066 --> 00:17:16,667
-It gets
a little bit of a fry.
-[Vladimir] Uh-huh.
474
00:17:16,667 --> 00:17:18,467
[Guy] Now, some of the
red sauce. Eight gallons.
475
00:17:18,467 --> 00:17:20,700
Smells awesome.
Okay, so how much longer
is this gonna cook?
476
00:17:20,700 --> 00:17:21,567
[Vladimir] Fifteen minutes.
477
00:17:21,567 --> 00:17:23,000
-Then we take it to the masa?
-Uh-huh.
478
00:17:23,000 --> 00:17:24,867
He's the bossa of the masa.
479
00:17:24,867 --> 00:17:27,166
So the masa balled up
and ready to go.
480
00:17:27,166 --> 00:17:29,000
We've got to separate.
Pour the oil first in.
481
00:17:29,000 --> 00:17:30,867
Kind of creams up the masa.
482
00:17:30,867 --> 00:17:32,400
[Vladimir] Salt,
baking powder.
483
00:17:32,400 --> 00:17:34,900
That's what makes them
nice and light and airy
and not super dense and hard.
484
00:17:34,900 --> 00:17:35,967
-Okay.
-Now we'll mix it.
485
00:17:35,967 --> 00:17:37,066
[Guy] How many tamales
will this make?
486
00:17:37,066 --> 00:17:38,367
-Seventy tamales.
-About 70.
487
00:17:38,367 --> 00:17:39,700
[Vladimir] Mm-hmm.
We add sun-dried salsa.
488
00:17:39,700 --> 00:17:41,300
[Guy] Okay,
so we mix all this up,
489
00:17:41,300 --> 00:17:42,600
and then we start
building tamales.
490
00:17:42,600 --> 00:17:43,533
-That's right.
-Got it.
491
00:17:43,533 --> 00:17:45,100
-[Vladimir] Oil.
-[Guy] So it doesn't stick.
492
00:17:45,100 --> 00:17:46,500
-Put some masa.
-[Guy] Okay.
493
00:17:46,500 --> 00:17:48,867
-Some salsa.
-Oh, it's gonna be
nice and moist.
494
00:17:48,867 --> 00:17:50,467
-[Vladimir] And some meat.
-[Guy] That's generous, baby.
495
00:17:50,467 --> 00:17:52,700
I hate when it's so much masa
and just a little bit of meat.
496
00:17:52,700 --> 00:17:55,166
Roll the tamale, fold it up.
So, tie.
497
00:17:55,166 --> 00:17:57,266
-A little bit of salsa
-And a little bit more
in there.
498
00:17:57,266 --> 00:17:58,600
[Vladimir] Yeah, there we go.
499
00:17:58,600 --> 00:18:00,600
[Guy] And then we're gonna
stand all those up
in the steamer.
500
00:18:00,600 --> 00:18:02,266
Start it from cold,
stack them up.
501
00:18:02,266 --> 00:18:04,567
-35, 40 min,
then they're done.
-Mm-hm. That's right.
502
00:18:04,567 --> 00:18:05,867
-Beef and bread.
-[Guy] All right.
503
00:18:05,867 --> 00:18:07,166
The size of this.
504
00:18:07,166 --> 00:18:08,433
That's huge, man.
505
00:18:09,100 --> 00:18:09,900
Mm.
506
00:18:09,900 --> 00:18:11,900
Nothing like
shredded Mexican beef.
507
00:18:12,266 --> 00:18:14,166
Mm. Great job.
508
00:18:14,166 --> 00:18:16,100
Here's your poblano
and cheese tamales.
509
00:18:16,100 --> 00:18:18,567
I have had the tamales,
and they are wonderful.
510
00:18:18,567 --> 00:18:20,367
Morgan, I got tamales set.
511
00:18:20,367 --> 00:18:22,000
Angie and Vladimir
really pride themselves
512
00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:23,266
in the layering
of their flavors,
513
00:18:23,266 --> 00:18:25,367
and that's what
really makes it shine.
514
00:18:25,367 --> 00:18:27,166
We need more beans
over here, please.
515
00:18:27,166 --> 00:18:30,300
There are
a lot more items on the menu
other than just tamales,
516
00:18:30,300 --> 00:18:32,467
and you can't go wrong
with any of them.
517
00:18:32,467 --> 00:18:34,066
Spicy chipotle
chicken nachos ready.
518
00:18:34,066 --> 00:18:35,900
I have the chipotle
chicken nachos.
519
00:18:35,900 --> 00:18:39,667
Ah, the flavor, the crunch.
They're just delicious.
520
00:18:39,667 --> 00:18:41,767
The nachos come with
our homemade tortilla chips.
521
00:18:41,767 --> 00:18:44,200
We're gonna fry them
just a little bit,
make them crunchy.
522
00:18:44,200 --> 00:18:48,166
We're gonna put
some salt, lime juice
and then chipotle chicken.
523
00:18:48,166 --> 00:18:49,600
We use white
and dark meat.
524
00:18:49,600 --> 00:18:50,667
Some salt in there.
525
00:18:50,667 --> 00:18:52,200
Now we're going
to add some sauce.
526
00:18:52,200 --> 00:18:54,800
It's chipotles,
garlic and onions,
salt and pepper.
527
00:18:54,800 --> 00:18:56,300
Very flavorful.
528
00:18:56,300 --> 00:18:59,100
We let it boil a little bit,
just a few minutes,
and then it's good to go.
529
00:18:59,100 --> 00:19:00,567
Got some beans.
530
00:19:00,567 --> 00:19:02,367
And then our cheese dip.
531
00:19:02,367 --> 00:19:05,066
White American cheese,
oil, evaporated milk,
532
00:19:05,066 --> 00:19:07,100
combination of jalapenos
and serranos.
533
00:19:07,100 --> 00:19:07,767
That's the kick for it.
534
00:19:07,767 --> 00:19:09,467
We're gonna add some water.
535
00:19:09,467 --> 00:19:11,166
Cook until
it's nice and creamy.
536
00:19:11,166 --> 00:19:12,667
Real famous cheese dip,
537
00:19:12,667 --> 00:19:14,567
and we finish
with some lettuce.
538
00:19:14,567 --> 00:19:16,567
[waitress] Spicy chipotle
chicken nachos.
539
00:19:16,567 --> 00:19:17,600
They're so crunchy.
540
00:19:17,600 --> 00:19:20,166
I absolutely love the cheese.
It's so delicious.
541
00:19:20,166 --> 00:19:22,266
Nice smoky chipotle flavor.
542
00:19:22,266 --> 00:19:24,800
I love the nachos.
The tacos, especially.
543
00:19:25,667 --> 00:19:27,000
What's your favorite item
on the menu?
544
00:19:27,000 --> 00:19:28,467
[customer] Steak taco,
everything on it.
545
00:19:28,467 --> 00:19:30,467
It's the corn tortilla
what makes it.
546
00:19:30,467 --> 00:19:32,200
Two pork tacos loaded.
547
00:19:32,200 --> 00:19:34,867
The pork tacos
are my favorite for sure.
548
00:19:34,867 --> 00:19:36,900
[Angela] We're gonna start
by pouring the pork
into the pot.
549
00:19:36,900 --> 00:19:38,467
Then I'm gonna pour my OJ,
550
00:19:38,467 --> 00:19:40,867
onion and garlic,
the milk, salt.
551
00:19:40,867 --> 00:19:42,967
And a little extra sugar
just for fun.
552
00:19:42,967 --> 00:19:46,367
We're going to let this
cook for several hours
until it's nice and tender.
553
00:19:46,367 --> 00:19:49,467
For the pork tacos,
I'm going to start
heating up the tortillas,
554
00:19:49,467 --> 00:19:51,667
the pork so it can
start caramelizing.
555
00:19:51,667 --> 00:19:54,266
And we use provolone cheese
because it's my favorite.
556
00:19:54,266 --> 00:19:58,367
Now I'm adding my pork
to get that cheese
all melted into the pork.
557
00:19:58,367 --> 00:20:01,467
We're finishing it
with onion, cilantro,
558
00:20:01,467 --> 00:20:03,000
a couple lime wedges.
559
00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:04,266
These are pork tacos.
560
00:20:04,266 --> 00:20:05,400
[waitress]
Here's your pork tacos.
561
00:20:05,400 --> 00:20:06,467
[customer] I love these.
562
00:20:06,467 --> 00:20:08,867
The pork itself,
it tastes, like, smoked
563
00:20:08,867 --> 00:20:10,767
and has some
sweet sauce to it.
564
00:20:10,767 --> 00:20:12,700
[customer 2] The way that
they crisp them on the grill,
565
00:20:12,700 --> 00:20:14,500
they're nice and crunchy
with the melted cheese.
566
00:20:14,500 --> 00:20:16,100
It's amazing.
567
00:20:16,100 --> 00:20:18,667
So what's the next step
in the world of
The Tamale Place?
568
00:20:18,667 --> 00:20:20,700
The vision is nationwide.
569
00:20:20,700 --> 00:20:21,700
Nationwide tamales.
570
00:20:21,700 --> 00:20:24,000
[Angela] We're trying
freeze-dried tamales.
571
00:20:24,000 --> 00:20:25,567
You'll be able
to order them online.
572
00:20:25,567 --> 00:20:28,400
You're leading the tamale
revolution in Indianapolis.
573
00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:29,600
[Angela] That's right.
574
00:20:31,300 --> 00:20:33,600
Two Acapulco bowls
for the Triple-D Nation.
575
00:20:33,600 --> 00:20:35,300
-[Anthony] Coming up hot.
-So there you have it, folks.
576
00:20:35,300 --> 00:20:38,967
Three more
of your favorite spots
upping their culinary game.
577
00:20:38,967 --> 00:20:40,300
Hey, guys,
enjoy your meal.
578
00:20:40,300 --> 00:20:43,100
-You're welcome.
-And they're not
the only ones.
579
00:20:43,100 --> 00:20:46,600
We'll have more to check out
next time on Triple-D Nation.
580
00:20:46,600 --> 00:20:47,700
-Test broths.
-Did you--
581
00:20:47,700 --> 00:20:50,166
Tying your shoes has not
ever been a big thing, has it?
582
00:20:50,166 --> 00:20:52,166
-I mean, that's--
-[all laughing]
583
00:20:52,166 --> 00:20:53,734
That's why--
584
00:20:54,667 --> 00:20:56,900
That's why they do
the Velcro shoes.
585
00:20:56,900 --> 00:20:58,867
-Huh? Does that--
-I-I am a Velcro man.
