0:32
pronounce it fo
0:33
i'm not even going to edit that out
0:42
i'm inviting you to join me shall you
0:42
you know that's a good call big the foot
0:44
i think i will start off with a piping
0:47
hot bowl of delicious goodness
0:50
located right here in macomber center
0:54
see it right there on the signage fourth
0:56
one up
0:57
faux 21. oh yeah i love this place
1:01
and they have the outdoor seating
1:03
arrangements i've eaten here probably
1:05
about
1:05
50 times over the years i always enjoy
1:09
it
1:09
i have stated this before but i really
1:12
enjoy
1:13
the the way the outdoor arrangements are
1:16
i kind of prefer it oh just brought some
1:20
of the
1:21
some of the additives there and i asked
1:23
for extra onions because i love i love
1:26
honey
1:26
that's quite a bit of onions but i did
1:28
ask for for extra onions
1:30
and usually i am inside there i like
1:33
this neon
1:35
but i like the the fresh air outdoors
1:38
i like outdoor seating a lot one thing i
1:41
do is i put just a little bit of
1:44
sriracha there and then i take
1:52
this sauce and kind of
1:52
fill it up just a bit and then i stir it
1:55
with these
1:59
it's like a nice little treat before the
2:00
meal gets here you can even take a
2:02
couple of them
2:03
just kind of kind of dunk it in there
2:09
looking at the menu items here i always
2:09
go with the number 16
2:12
faux gah and i go with the large which
2:15
is
2:15
9.99 now just a large is
2:19
quite a bit it's chicken soup and
2:23
it has been brought out there it is
2:24
right there oh yeah look at that
2:27
and this oh look it's like steaming up
2:30
into the
2:31
into the lens there this is what
2:34
we're dealing with so i just grab a
2:38
kind of a handful of that sprinkle it in
2:40
there just go real heavy
2:42
on the onions and you take these little
2:44
sprouts here
2:46
kind of douse those out now sometimes
2:48
you can put a little bit of that
2:50
and a little bit of that i really opt
2:52
out of that
2:53
and just kind of go with the just the
2:55
real basic
2:57
but the broth here is great so how about
2:59
the broth with me
3:01
i've never had bad foe they're all all
3:04
the places are good but something about
3:06
this place the broth is just
3:07
i don't know it just kind of speaks to
3:09
me and the great thing about the broth
3:11
is you kind of save it for last so you
3:13
go with the noodles
3:15
first and then you take this at the end
3:18
and you sip on the broth it's almost
3:19
like the
3:20
it's almost like a dessert but not
3:22
really it's not a sweet dessert it's
3:23
just a
3:24
but my glasses are getting [\h__\h] up
3:27
ah it's very hot for the longest time i
3:30
never used chopsticks i always used a
3:32
fork and when i was in a band we would
3:33
always get sushi
3:34
we'd get like faux and stuff like that
3:36
and everyone else sometimes it'd be a
3:38
couple bands
3:39
you know so it'd be 10 or 12 of us at a
3:41
restaurant everyone would be eating with
3:42
chopsticks i would be the guy with the
3:43
fork and i just decided
3:45
i need to learn how to use chopsticks
3:46
and the truth is i don't even know if
3:48
i'm using them the correct way i just
3:50
i just kind of grab them and make the
3:52
best of it
3:53
it's you know there is no real correct
3:56
way just
3:57
the best way is not to over analyze it
4:00
just grab the chopsticks and whatever
4:03
you feel comfortable with
4:06
do it after a few times you got this
4:10
oh yeah
4:24
that's warm you know certain of certain
4:24
foods will make you feel bad
4:25
this makes you feel makes you feel good
4:28
this food item
4:30
a little bit of sodium in there so not
4:32
you know you got to watch the sodium
4:33
intake but other than that it's
4:36
pretty good for you faux 21 at 5434
4:40
beach boulevard in buena park
4:43
in this little little complex this plaza
4:46
so this is kind of my this is kind of
4:48
one of my spots
4:49
don't don't tell anyone keep it keep it
4:51
our little secret
4:54
the nectar of goodness
5:02
oh yeah i managed to complete it the
5:02
whole bowl
5:03
gone in my belly
5:06
who i am i am
5:10
so full right now i recall in the heat
5:13
of summer when i was
5:14
a lot younger i would get done at being
5:16
out and about sweating profusely and i
5:18
would always ask my mom
5:19
to make some soup and that continues to
5:21
this day i enjoy that particular meal
5:23
even
5:24
even in august and maybe it applies to
5:27
coffee as well because i prefer
5:28
a hot coffee versus an ice one even when
5:31
it's warm out i don't know why
5:33
all right heading over to knotts now
5:34
which is only about two and a half miles
5:36
down the road
5:37
no not really big the foot don't have a
5:39
major game plan at the marketplace do
5:41
want to pick up some boysenberry punch
5:43
mix though
5:44
there's the coaster wooden coaster
5:46
straight ahead ghost rider
5:48
free parking during these times too
5:53
it's gonna be a lot of fun when this
5:54
thing starts running again
5:56
it is very peaceful out here at the
5:58
moment
6:00
i'm gonna go in this store momentarily
6:02
that's what i'm looking for the new item
6:04
the sugar-free concentrate right there
6:06
oh yeah i'm gonna get a bottle or two i
6:08
see you over there hiding good thing you
6:09
got the facial covering on you don't
6:10
want to frighten anyone
6:12
and my friend the bear also over here
6:13
following suit just ended up getting
6:15
one bottle of this and put it in this
6:18
clear
6:18
plastic bag with the knots logo on it
6:21
also inside
6:22
some of the gift shops they had two new
6:24
pins that were just released today today
6:26
is the official
6:27
release of these two pens and they also
6:30
had
6:31
some some of the kit kat clocks one of
6:33
them i own did not purchase it here
6:35
i got mine on hollywood boulevard years
6:37
ago but they do sell them here as well
6:39
and new face coverings one looks like a
6:43
boysenberry pie
6:44
and another is the kind of a bird's eye
6:47
perspective guide map
6:48
of the park was no not scary farm
6:52
merchandise most likely well i don't
6:55
know for certain but they may not have
6:56
printed it knowing
6:57
that they weren't going to do the event
6:59
and if it has been printed
7:01
in none of none of the stores have it as
7:04
of right now it's going to be
7:05
unusual not having that event taking
7:08
place this year it is a tradition
7:11
here in southern california 2020
7:20
what a year there is one that is not
7:20
sugar-free
7:21
pretty happy that this this has been
7:25
has been released
7:30
and this kind of shows the nutrition
7:30
facts
7:31
on the side i just have i just use a
7:33
little bit maybe
7:34
a few ounces mixed with a big glass of
7:37
ice water i don't add anything else to
7:41
i've heard that you can kind of mix
7:42
other things in it as well
7:44
like 7up or sprite but i just use the
7:48
water
7:49
it also says a variation of substitute
7:51
soda water
7:53
but i've never done that for carb i
7:54
don't yeah i guess carbonated would be
7:56
good but
7:57
i just always just done the water in
8:00
just a little bit i pour
8:02
the ice in the bottom of a big glass
8:05
and then before i put the water i put a
8:07
little bit of this punch
8:08
mixture and then fill the water
8:12
in and then stir it that's my go-to
8:15
method
8:16
tasty classic car
8:19
alert a couple months ago
8:23
the lettering at the top of that
8:25
attraction right up there
8:32
was replaced it's a new k
8:32
it looks pretty good
8:40
brand new
8:40
coast rider which is the ride you see
8:43
kind of the closest to me looking
8:45
forward to going back on this because
8:47
about a year or so ago
8:49
and i was at one of my heaviest weights
8:51
i attempted to go on that and
8:54
it it didn't work it's not made for
8:57
those who are
8:58
a tiny bit overweight well not a tiny
9:00
bit but i was
9:01
more than a tiny bit overweight so i'm
9:04
ready to i'm ready to attempt it
9:06
by the time it reopens i should be down
9:08
to
9:10
down to enough to be able to fit on the
9:12
the ride vehicle
9:13
i agree big the foot at universal
9:15
hollywood that forbidden
9:16
journey harry potter attraction it's
9:19
kind of the same
9:21
maybe i'll be able to fit on that again
9:23
once they reopen
9:25
can't go to the disneyland resort
9:26
parking structure
9:28
but can go to another parking area and
9:31
head to downtown disney
9:34
just gotta follow this little pathway
9:42
feels like ages ago that i was standing
9:42
up there at the top
9:43
of the structure looking down into
9:46
galaxy's edge
9:50
it'll happen again soon
9:58
very soon got the incredi coaster there
9:58
with the screaming tubes
10:04
that's what that's what those are called
10:04
and if you look closely i might have to
10:05
have a keen eye to see it
10:07
but on mickey's fun wheel i believe
10:10
i think now it's called the pixar pal
10:12
around
10:13
but the ride vehicles have the doors
10:17
open
10:18
which are usually you know when it's
10:19
operational the doors are shut but right
10:21
now
10:22
just to get a little maybe to keep them
10:24
from swaying or to keep the
10:26
the breeze flowing through them the
10:28
doors are open from at least that's
10:30
kind of what i can see from here the
10:33
disneyland hotel
10:35
which is located there but there's also
10:37
the paradise pier hotel which one day i
10:39
would like to stay out
10:41
kind of up near the top level you could
10:43
see down into
10:45
dca from way up there pretty well i
10:47
would imagine
10:48
directional arrows illuminated even
10:51
though it's kind of tough to see
10:53
under the shroud of daylight
10:56
gotta go that way
11:06
