How much does a wildly successful comedian’s perfect meal cost? Let’s talk about that. Good Mythical Morning. He is currently on his huge nationwide stand up It Ain’t Right tour and he’s the star of the Max comedy series Bookie The season 2 finale dropping on January 30th. It’s Sebastian Menescalco! Yeah! You were ready for that! Did my homework. I saw that. I think that’s a first. This is such a big moment for me. Is that right? I got makeup on. You’re looking good. You know what? I can’t even tell. I just thought you had beautiful skin. No, this is just a little rouge. I got a little bit of something myself. Just a little bit. Just a little bit of pow pow. So you’re a foodie. Yes. You know, you’ve had, you’ve had shows, you’ve had opinions, you’ve got all types of food bits, and you pride yourself on your Steak? Yeah, yeah, you did your homework too, huh? Yeah, I actually cook steak. I’m currently into New York Strip. I was a big ribeye guy. I’m a strip guy. You’re a strip guy? Alright. I was a ribeye, and then I went to the doctor. And said, uh, maybe you should go to New York Strip. Maybe not so much fat because I’m on the verge of passing away, so. Well, we’re glad to have you on your way out. And you know what? That might be based on your food choices, which we’re about to explore. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Based on what I’ve seen. Not a healthy. We’re gonna have a good time sending you on your way. That’s right. It’s time for Naked Foods Naked Sebastian Menescalco Edition. Naked! The food is naked. Sebastian is silently judging you for thinking otherwise. Okay boys, throughout today’s game, Sebastian’s favorite foods will be served at low, mid, and fancy price levels. Each round, you’ll all pick your favorite, and by the end, we’ll find out how expensive your taste buds are. Up first, these are Italian subs. These are Italian subs. Sorry, we did a little unison there. Was I supposed to do that? No, he wasn’t supposed to do it, I think. Or I wasn’t. You weren’t supposed to do it. I always do it first. Sorry, this is so awkward. Break this up, Sebastian. We don’t like each other. It’s good that you’re here. I’ve been told that anything with a toothpick in it is tomato free, Link, so feel free to grab the one on top. I don’t want to touch your sub. I got a problem already. Tell me about it. Tomato is kind of the best part of a sub. Now, uh, are you allergic? Are you someone who’s picky? Beep, beep, beep. I feel as if I’m allergic. He hates it so much it must be an allergy. It’s repulsive when I put it in my mouth. And that’s my body telling me that if it goes down, something bad’s gonna happen. Alright. I listen to my body. Alright, I gotcha. So I gotcha. Italian sub. What you know about Italian sub? A little on the nose, huh? I mean, come on. Well, I mean, this is what I used to eat at lunchtime in second grade. Everybody had peanut butter and jelly and, uh, bologna. I had beautiful cold cuts, oil, vinegar, a little, uh, mozzarella cheese. In the lunchbox, huh? And would you do this yourself? No, my mother would, uh, make my lunch. She’d oil it? Oil it, prepare it, the whole, and then I got older, I started doing it. Um, here, just, just a note here. Yep. And this is for the viewers. When I eat I tend to collect an extreme amount of food in my teeth. Oh, good. So, um, just letting you guys know out there, there could be a pepper or a piece of, uh, mortadella hanging out of my right incisor. Okay. Well, that’s what this is for. This is your Sebastian Toothpick. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I might need that. This is, this is good. It’s well stacked. What do you think about the, uh, how hard do you like your bread? It’s pretty hard. The key is the bread. And to me, I’m thinking this is a little too crispy for me, a little too hard. As soon as I bit into it, I hurt the roof of my mouth. Yep. I’m injured already. I actually did too. Seriously. Right in there. It’s a little too much. I need to know rules here of the game and etiquette. Is it? Two, three bites. Am I allowed to have the sandwich for a while? You can take it with you when you leave. Oh, okay. We’re moving along? It’s only a twenty minute show. Right, right, right. Eat only what you want. This is some interesting bread here. Rustic, you might say. It’s a flat one. There’s no tomato because there’s no option for no tomato. Interesting. I already know the sandwich. I was just on site alone. This is the cheese star. This is, this is Dom’s sandwich. I can tell by the sight of it. And, and does it excite you? The bread is homemade. And, uh, this, I’m really excited to be having this right now. Oh. Oh, man. Okay. That’s a huge upgrade. You’re saying this is called Dom’s sandwich. I don’t know what the sandwich is. This might be his classic, I think. Oh, man. But this is from the cheese store in Beverly Hills. Dom is a good friend of mine. And this is his sandwich. The bread is phenomenal. Not hard. Soft. Oil, vinegar, you can feel the flavors dancing. So much flavor. So much flavor. I’m gonna tell you right now. It, it comes without tomato. Mm hmm. And it is the best Italian sub I’ve ever put in my mouth. Hey, wow. Yeah. All right, see? Didn’t have to remove anything. I’m not gonna argue with that. But this thing here. This, I’m not, I’m not too crazy about the sesame seeds. It’s just, uh. It feels unnecessary. But go ahead. Um, Um, we got some diced onions. Guys, guys, you know what? I’m gonna, I’m gonna go out on a limb here. I’m gonna say Jersey Mike’s on this. Just, just on sight alone. I know a sandwich when I see it. No, no, no, no. No, no, no, no, no, no. Jersey Mike’s would never do that, Jimmy John’s. They don’t do the side fold. Okay. Yeah, we’re big on some Jersey Mike’s. I mean, what’s your opinion? It seems like it’s negative. Of, of Mike. I like the Jersey Mike’s. I’m just saying, I’m not a sesame seed guy when it comes to subs. Um, it’s decent. It’s okay. It’s decent, I mean. It’s going everywhere. Yeah, mine fell out a lot. Uh, do you have a napkin by chance? I have so many. So, I’m gonna give y’all a 3, 2, 1 so you can pick your favorite. I think, I think I know where all of you are stabbing. But just so we can see it in unison. Here we go. 3, 2, 1. Wah bam! Yeah, that is a good sub. Tell Dom he knows what’s up. Okay. Yeah, so you are correct. That is from the cheese store of Beverly Hills for $19. It’s also our fancy option and when we pick a fancy option, we like to do a little something fancy. Today, I’m told we have the fancy pants Rembrandt. Hello! Hey! What you gonna do? You gonna. I think he’s doing a live sketch. Of us, maybe? Of us? Of you, yeah. I guess more of the back of the head? I guess more of the back of the head? Yeah, there was a lot of, there was a lot of back. There you go. I signed it as well. Thank you so much. I mean it was quick. So, uh, you don’t have to, you don’t have to. Why didn’t you give Sebastian hair? Yeah, I feel like I am not being represented in the hair department although your hair is unbelievable. By the way, is that a blow dry? Oh yeah. Oh yeah. Is that a blow dry? I’m fully blown. Is any, is any uh, volumizer in your hair? So do you volumize it and then blow it out? No sir, I thin it out. I just gotta be real. Um, okay. Uh, the other sandwiches, the first one is our mid price point option from Altadena Bakery for $15.42 and then the last one is not from Jersey Mike’s, it’s from Giamella’s, our low price point option for $13. This one was just a standout. I mean, you can’t compete with that. Really. These are cheeseburgers. These are cheeseburgers. See how that feels? You see how that feels? When you think it’s gonna be your moment, and then somebody steps on it? It felt horrible. It felt horrible. But then Sebastian, you got in on it, and then it took a turn to the positive. Listen, I didn’t know you felt that strongly about it. I thought it might chime in, and now I think you’re pissed off with me. I was trying to impress you. Oh, okay. Well, it was my moment, and you both ruined it. Sorry. Okay, Smashburger. First of all, this might be, I mean, I think I have like, several foods that tie for first, and this is definitely one of them. Oh, upon the reach! So, we’re on the same page here. Okay, so we got a nice. What do you typically like on them? A lot of pickles on this one. Yeah, um, I’m more, um, cheese and burger and bun. Yeah, because it doesn’t need a whole lot more. No special sauce? Well, I don’t know, um I don’t know, let me, let me, let me get into this. That’s a good burger. But, really heavy on the pickles. The pickle is a little over the top. I think it needed to be a double. It’s tasty though. You know what I really like about this, is this little uh, the crust that they got coming off the back end of it. This is interesting. How, I mean, half of this burger is completely pink. What, is this a special thing? Uh, that’s just yours, man. Isn’t that wild? Oh yeah. This, uh, this, uh, I’m going to say just based on that, cheap. Yeah, or at least inconsistent. Yeah, which side should I bite? Maybe right in the middle. A lot of bread happening. A lot of vertical yeast going on in this one. Not nearly as good as that one. You alright with the bread? Too much bread. Another thing I should have warned you guys about, I said something about the teeth. When I start eating like this, I start sweating. Hear what you do? Yeah. Do you sweat at all? It gives you a youthful glow, though. Well, I don’t know. I might have to take off the jacket for the third run. You can do it. Okay, well. So, I mean, do you refer to it as the meat sweats? Oh yeah. No one told me about the meat sweats, until I woke up at 3 o’clock in the morning and I thought I was, uh, having a stroke. Uh, apparently after 50, you can’t have lamb chops after 6 p.m. Yeah, I read that on WebMD. Yeah, there you go. Is this the one? Oh, okay, cool. Alright, heavy pickles. It looks good, though. Yeah, this is a heavy pickle. I didn’t start liking pickles until I was 46. Mmm. Mmm. When you’re young, you just don’t need that much pickle in your life. You’re not a pickle guy, huh? The special sauce on this one is Almost spicy. It’s different. It’s weird. Okay, it’s kind of a close call, but I’ve got a guess. Okay, here we go. Or not a guess, but a choice. Stab your favorite in three, two, one. What? Yes, we are agreeing again because we know our cheeseburgers. Mm hmm. Okay, here’s the slightly crazy thing that just happened. Sebastian, your purported favorite smash burger is up here, but you did not choose it. Which one do you think that was? Yes, that was I was so close to selecting. So yeah, that one that you did not pick was our mid price point level from heavy handed for 9. Oh, heavy handed. That’s good. That’s a good spot. But the one that you did pick is our low price point level from the window. For $4.35, and then the middle one that you cracked all over is the fancy one from Blue Ribbon for $26, and it also has a Wagyu beef in it. Yeah, you don’t need to make a burger fancy. I think it takes away from it, and we’ve proven it once again. Blue Ribbon, the Japanese joint? Yep. Alright, so, listen. I go to Blue Ribbon for sushi, I don’t really go for the burger. Yeah, we kind of got that covered here. This is fish and chips. This is fish and chips. I just wanted to say chips Yeah, I didn’t want to step all over the whole thing, Link. Well, I just said the fish and the chips. I said chips. I like the way you came in. I, I, I felt a little aggressive on the side. And he was trying to screw it up. I’m sorry, I’m sorry. It was just one word and I didn’t know how loud it was going to come out. Sometimes when you start talking, CHIPS! You know? It came out loud. Let’s start over there. I’m seeing very crackly looking fish, which I want that. The second one really looks like it’s got a complete shell of crackling stuff. And you know what? Give me a shoestring too. I love these little shoestring fries. Now I will say that unfortunately, Sebastian, your favorite from Connie and Ted’s we couldn’t get today. Okay. Shout out to Connie and Ted’s though, because I love Connie and Ted’s, but maybe you’ll find a new favorite amongst these three. Okay. All good. All good. Um, let me ask you guys something. Yep. Can you determine how good the fish and chips are going to be based on what the fries look like? Because I took the fries in on that. Fries look a little sad. And it kind of matched the fish and chip. It was a little dry. It is like the litmus test of the fry game of the particular place. Yeah. Fries are like the preface to a book. And um, sometimes I’ll like, I’ll read that. And then I’ll realize that I didn’t like that, and then I won’t realize that the author of the book is not the one who wrote that. But then it’s too late, and I just, that’s why I don’t read. I’m shocked that you read the preface. I don’t know a lot of people who are reading the preface. I skip it, man. Yeah, I go right into chapter one. Is that because you’re shocked that I read? Or that I start there? I wasn’t shocked that you, you read. I was just shocked that you take, do you read the acknowledgments still? Well, I mean, uh, yeah. Yeah, I mean. I mean, I’ll read the dedication. Once you get acknowledged. You know, like, to my wife? That’s easy to read. Yeah. I’m looking for easy I’m looking for I’m looking for photos still in a book. Okay. What do you think about the, what are these fries telling you? Oh, I got one stick. Crispy fry. Seasoned well. Don’t see a lot of seasoning on these. Um Based on the touch, just coming off a touch on this, seems, uh, it’s got some, it’s got some juice in it. And the outside, it’s like a hard shell crab. Moist. You know? It is. And that’s what you want, right? Yeah, this is, uh. Pretty hush puppy like almost. They are. I feel like fish and chips have kind of fell off. Yeah, they’re, they’re. Yeah, I feel like they were big in the 80s and now we’re kind of searching for a really good fish and chip out there. Uh, here, let me get you a This is a big piece of fish here. Yeah, it’s, it’s due for another moment. Yeah. You’re right about that. And, um, I’m really hurtin for not having some malt vinegar. But this is naked. This is naked. So we can’t have that. That’s got the best batter, the best crisp of any dish. And it’s huge! Like, I don’t know how they held up so well. Oh, wow. I gotta tell you, people. For those of you at home, you’re not really getting this through the cameras, but, the smell on the fish, tremendous, right? The, uh, the flakiness of the crust is outstanding. And, I think the fries are better here, but That’s a pretty good seasoning though. Three, two, one. I mean, that’s a special batter. That’s a special batter. Okay, so this is the third round in which you’re all three agreeing. Now I know. Are you annoyed by that? Yes, I’m so annoyed by it. Uh, no, this place, I know for a fact that Rhett and Link, you enjoy. Uh, it is our low price point option. Okay. And it’s from California Fish Grill. Yes! Really nice. I got a bone to pick with you about this. Well, can my, I’m sending it offline. The other day, we were like, why don’t we have California Fish Grill more often catering? And then I was told, because of Stevie. You know, a lot of people around here use that excuse for a lot of things. Yeah. So. Yeah, uh, anyway! Have you been to California Fish and Grill? I have not. It’s like, it’s, it’s almost fast, it’s fast food. Yeah, you just walk in, you get your number, kind of thing. Alright, no, I would have never guessed that would have been cheap. And I’ve never gotten this from there. No, I’ve never had the fried. Their Cajun, it’s all, it’s all good. The first plate is from, it’s our fancy option from Tam O’Shanter for $25 and the middle one is our mid price point option from Broken Compass Tiki for $17. Broken compass tiki. What? These are fried chicken sandwiches. These are fried chicken sandwiches. Oh, good! We should bring hugs! It should have been that the whole time! What? We got a smattering of applause from four people for that. Fried chicken sandwich. Hey, good choice. This is my specialty. This is what I cook. Oh, you do? I once cooked it in Vegas. For Gordon Ramsay himself. In a cooking competition that I did not win. Uh, but he was very complimentary. Alright. I got a little bit of a sauce on this one. It’s going to be different. It’s green. It’s like a It’s just like a spicy Verde thing happening. I wasn’t expecting that. Mhmm. Um, that’s weird. I’m not a big fan of that. No, I didn’t I don’t particularly care for the sauce, nor the, the chicken. Um, what? Tell us about your basement grandma. My basement grandma, she, uh, she lived in the basement cooking food. In an Italian house, generally speaking, you don’t use the kitchen upstairs. That’s just for show. It’s like a museum. Oh. You’d get the basement kitchen dirty, and then you’d bring up the kitchen, uh, the food from that kitchen. Just say the same thing with the front room in an Italian house. You never go in there. It’s like, it’s like roped off. Yeah, yeah, you can’t like, you can’t act like you live in the home. That’s how Graceland was when I went there. Yeah? Yeah. Yeah, everything’s roped off. You’re right. Because uh, Elvis was Italian. Or something. Elvis was Italian? Well, or something. I gave you two options. Wait, or something? So what was your grandma, what did you call your grandma? Did you call her Sarah, her name is Sarah Fina, which is my daughter’s name. So we call her Grandma Sarah. So, uh You gotta have a grandma in the basement, man. I barely ever saw my grandma. Tomato! Tomato! Pay attention, Link. You’re looking out for me. So you only let her out of the basement when she was bringing food? Yep, that’s it. I also, I want to be clear to Link here. Because I think you’re thinking, Oh, when I went into Graceland, It was roped off. That’s because that is not your, like, it’s not an actual house that people use. Yeah, we never saw Elvis. I was wondering about that. That room was roped off because it is a museum. And I just want to, cause I think you were making the connection, is Elvis Italian? His room is roped off. It’s because it’s a museum now. So, yeah, I just wanted to bring that home. That, that, I mean, that’s fair. This one I, well, I, honestly, I’m wanting more. Like, I, like, this one got a little bit better, but I’m still. This one, I’d rather have the sauce, this one, rather than this one. This one was, was not, I wasn’t feeling it. I think this is like pimento cheese on the bottom, boys. Well, I wanna move on to this last one. I mean, look at that. Let’s move on to the last one. And we got sesame seeds, which, again, feels a little unnecessary for a chicken sandwich. But, it’s very long. I’m liking the way the bread, is even shim, the lights are shimmering off the bread. The bread looks very fresh. Yeah, like butter brushed or something. Oh, yeah. Okay. Wow. This is a different level. This is my sandwich This meaning, you know where it’s from oh, this is delicious from From north to south as you go as you make your way through the bite. You could tell it’s gonna be a great sandwich, man, is that good? It’s very unique too. Yeah. Good God. What kind of cheese is that? white Lacey Swiss or something. It’s amazing. Are you gonna do it again? Yeah, we are. We gotta do it again. This is no contest on this. Three, two, one. Okay. And again, uh, you’ve chosen Uh, Sebastian’s favorite from Honor Bar for $23, and also, lucky for you, it is our fancy option. Yes! Okay. He’s back! I wonder what he’s gonna do this time. He’s taking his time this time. He’s really dialing in the details. I am done. I don’t remember if this is the voice I had last time. Wow. This time you have hair. I do. And I have like a Is that a face? I started doing a face and I remembered I was doing your back. So, uh, I’m sorry. Goodbye. Your face looks like a coat hanger. It does. It does. Not in real life. Feel free to take that with you. Yeah. I signed it for you. You can earn, you can earn that. Alright, hey, listen, completely on the same page. Oh, do you want to know where the other options are from? Oh yes, please. Um, the first plate is our low price point option from The Window, again, for $7.35. Stick to burgers. And then, uh, Link, I don’t know where you thought the middle plate was from. I though it was Popeyes, actually. No, it’s our mid price point option from Fritzy Coop, for $17. All right. Well, they didn’t come close to your favorite. You’ve got some good taste between those two sandwiches. Oh, I appreciate that. Yeah, you’ve got really good taste. It’s our taste as well, I think. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That’s what we just discovered. We should go eat together. Well, I was going to suggest me kind of coming on here weekly. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, okay. Warning, you’ll never have this again. Nope. And it can get really bad. Is there a type of food that you had that was pretty bad? Well, I mean, unless you really like beef bile in your cheesecake, I don’t think you know what you’re signing up for. Beef bile? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Was that someone’s favorite cheesecake? No, that was our least favorite thing we’ve ever had on this show. We’ve also had the brains and testicles of most animals. So come on back. Alright. Thanks for being here, Sebastian.
