[lillitheris]

I want a chef Chen of my very own!

[FS11111]

[huddzzii]

this was recorded with a pineapple coz they had so many xD

[saintly007]

Oh yeah!!! Hot and spicy Szechuan cuisine vs Heat-seeking Thai cuisine. Both chef will definitely be packing heat in this fiery battle.

[eudelbtnh]

i want chen to be my grandpa

[gurubhai01]

Chen looks like he might shit his pants at any moment..

[japplegren]

chen has the best facial expressions, it's like he's in a permanent state of shock

[EmbahMabok]

Chen is so adorably cute! 8D

[chidoriookami]

7:52 as the chairman is giving the major clue about the secret ingredient...

Chen-san's face is like...ur guna screw me over again, Aren't you? ...x_x lol

[Fatmanmi]

Man, Chen gets all the sucky ingredients.

[PrometheanRunGood]

Thai food ahead of Chinese cuisine? lol dream on.

[Pomatopedia]

@PrometheanRunGood It is wrong to say which cuisine is better because each has its own flavour as well as its style. That's why I hate it when people start comparing different cuisines and start rating them.

[kittycathappy]

OMG! at 6:08 lol i thought they wrote GAY but it is CAY. LOL i was like WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[GamertownUSA]

Chen looks like a serial killer. He's the only one who rises with a killing instrument.

[mabindaby555]

I like how Kaga's so dramatic with everything about unveiling the ingredient and then he just says "Pine-ap-ple." So deadpan :)

[puffin02]

The female chef who walks on at 1.05 seems to be an Australian, if the flag is any indication. Does anyone know when that one happened, and if it's available anywhere?

[RCPlanes59]

Battle Ostrich, May 16, 1997. Gillian Hurst was the woman, who was defeated by Komei Nakamura. Searching Wikipedia never hurts :) ok well sometimes it does...

[TKDML5000]

I've tried cooking and tasting Thai food, and to my surprise, it's very good!

[Julalaxsa]

LOL, I"m thai and I have to say his food looks pretty good already.

[interloper79]

lol @ Stephen Hawking. That was so random.

[chidoriookami]

@interloper79 XDD i know its like, ...his photo just, threw everything off lmao.

[petekaz1977]

Monster Hawkins????

Have some respect. I know your only 5 years old............

[KingAcosta28]

How can that monster hawkings eat

[anadryantontine]

I thought of so many horrible things when he said that Stephen Hawking enjoyed the food. I'll keep my mouth shut this time around, purely out of respect. :-P

[NoelleClarkson]

am i allowed to say that i'm in love with chen??

[FrostbittenWolf]

Well you'll get a lot of strange looks, but yeah, you totally are.

[marialourdesrona]

payn ah pow :)

[zzhang24]

lol at chen's face when kaga is about to name ingredient, with all the crap he's gotten over the years: mochi, rice, noodle, yogurt, milk, taro

[rdrenton]

looks like someone just shot kenichi-san's dog, lol

[Thracozaag]

Figured Hawking would veer more towards molecular gastronomy.

[FrostbittenWolf]

He's possibly the worlds most brilliant man. And someone like that is bound to know that Asian food, especially Thai, gives you flavor and kick that no processed food could even begin to muster.

[KevinMcDunn]

Dukin' it out with pineapples!

[LovelyYTRocks]

Kaga: Pine-op-pool.

<333

[LovelyYTRocks]

Isn't Yoko Ono like 70 something years old?

[SiKedek]

Just as an aside, if "Psych" ever spoofed IC (THIS version), the theme would have to be this - no other ingredient would make much sense.

[freshsprout]

Man, Chen's expression is priceless after Kaga unveiled Pineapple.. I really hand it to the guy. He's really gone with the most unorthodox ingredients for Chinese food.

[obviouslee17]

it always looks like chen is talking to himself after seeing the ingredient

[exer881]

lmfao......when he says pineapple, both chefs are like wtf? no!

[rumplesnich]

lol...he says pineapple funny...lol listen to it.........pine  apple!

[shida323]

lol...im prefer malay cuisine than thai's. Even tho im Thais.

[piratebri]

Ive never had Thai food :( What is like like?

as always. thanks again archo! :D

[SiKedek]

What? Where are you located???

[kawaiismaksmak]

Chen looks kind of afraid..it'll be interesting tho..but I always considered pineapple more in thai cuisine than chinese -___-"

[zanfauzan]

Chen... i like sakai better...

[elfendorf]

It seems Chen tends to get hard to do themes like soybeans, mochi, lotus root and now pineapple.

[spellweaver16]

He got yogurt, too, the poor guy.

[Galatians324]

I usually root for the Iron Chef, but I want to root for the Thai Chef in this battle. I guess I'm biased since my dad is a Thai Chef!

[mlsyang]

Wow! First Thai Cuisine! I love Thai cuisine!
