Transcript

We're trying dog food made at restaurants.
Let's talk about that.
Good Mythical Morning.
There's nothing better than
taking your own very good boy to
a restaurant patio on a sunny day.
It always makes me a little sad
that they can't order anything.
Well, good news, there are actually
tons of restaurants that make
special dishes just for the doggies.
Okay.
So you might think that today we got a lot
of those dishes from those restaurants and
we're gonna let our dogs taste test them.
But no, we are going to taste test them.
Yes.
And rank them.
But we might let our dogs
corroborate our opinion.
Okay.
Okay, very good boys.
The Mythical Crew searched Los Angeles for
the best restaurant dog meals, all made
with human safe ingredients, of course.
And today you'll be tasting the top five
to determine which is the best of the best.
In case you need a pallet cleanser,
there's some water in those dog
bowls just off to your sides.
Uh, first go ahead and familiarize
yourself with the ranking board.
Okay.
We're gonna be ranking these
on a scale of bad to good.
Taste, like shih-tzu.
Chihua-why?
Poo-dull.
Fabradoodle, and Gold Medal Retriever.
All right.
Okay, you are starting with the dog
day delight from Mess Hall Kitchen.
It comes with your choice of protein
plus whipped cream and berries.
This is their grilled
salmon, it costs 19 bucks.
If you need help, uh, we've all been
distracted by your furry friends
that Jenna is trying to wrangle.
No problem at all.
The Neil dogs, so well behaved.
Look at that.
Yep.
Just, just chilling.
Looking around.
When you put the McLaughlin
dogs down, things happen.
Could, could you just show us what
happens if you set my dogs down?
Okay, all right.
So we got one out.
So what does Sean try to do?
Let's just see what he does.
I, I just wanna see what he does,
you know, just to get it, okay.
Oh.
You can do it buddy.
Push, push, push.
You can do it, buddy.
You can do it.
You gotta go hard, Sean.
You gotta go harder, Sean.
You gotta go harder.
You gotta go harder, Sean.
Sean, you've gotta really commit, Sean.
Yeah.
Find, find it, it is all
the same height, buddy.
You just gotta find one and
you just gotta go for it.
I believe in you, Sean.
I believe in you.
You can do it.
Yes, it's, oh.
You trying to teach him how to hop out?
Yeah, because.
Right here.
Look at his little body.
He's convinced.
He's goin'.
You gonna do it?
You can do it.
Sean.
Sean.
Sean.
Oh, Sean.
I believe in you buddy.
Drum, drum, yes.
Yes, yes, yes.
You can drum your way out.
So Barbara is at our feet right now.
We'll let her up here in a second.
My dog.
$20. They love the, uh, whipped cream.
Spending $20 on a, on a dog.
On a dog meal.
If you bring her up here, she will eat it.
So if you don't wanna eat it first.
Yeah.
Oh, I gotta try it first.
Okay.
I mean, they probably make it just like they,
I, and I shouldn't dip it in whipped cream.
No, you shouldn't.
They make it just like for humans.
They don't put garlic on it
and stuff like that though.
They raw dog it.
Do you feed her uh, whipped
cream and blueberries at home?
Yeah, we put Barbara's
medicine in blueberries.
Oh, Barbara.
I dropped one.
Barbara.
Barbara.
Yeah.
I mean, this is high quality.
Come girl.
Come on.
Stuff that I think will
be good for a dog to eat.
Come here.
I'm gonna bring you up here.
Am I willing to pay $20 to do this?
Absolutely not.
Come on.
Come on.
Barbara.
Come on.
Get that one.
Barbara, what are you?
What are you scared of?
Maybe she's scared of me.
Come here, baby.
She doesn't understand that
we're going to feed her.
You want some of this?
I shouldn't have used my fork for that.
I guess.
Hang on.
I guess that's Rhett's fork.
Okay.
Come on.
You can try it.
You get what you want.
Now, but you have, she has to be
fed with a fork because if for
$20 you gotta eat with a fork.
Yeah, yeah.
You feed her with a fork at home.
Uh, we do not feed her with a fork, but
she loves all three of these things.
So I can tell you right now that
this is like, and it's healthy.
Get a little bit of the pup cup.
Oh, that would be good.
Oh, you want more of the salmon.
I think that's what she wants.
No, no, no.
She, she likes that.
She likes that.
Alright, so it's got
Barbara's seal of approval.
Yeah, so I think this is probably,
uh, at this point, I think
this is better than middle.
How are we gonna, yeah, I mean, I didn't love
it, but I do think that it's pretty healthy.
We'll put that behind it there
so we remember what it is.
Whoa, are they, your dogs
are now making noises.
Uhoh.
Sean's still not succeeding.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
New, new technique.
Do you see that new technique?
Pull it towards you.
He's smart, look at him.
Well, when I look at
him, I don't think smart.
Okay.
These are Wooffles from The Waffle, they're
described as house chick patties for our
four-legged friends and are two bucks each.
Oh, Sean's about to do it.
I think he's about to do it.
I think he's finally gonna do it.
Cheer your brother on.
I think he's finally gonna do it.
Go on.
He's intent on getting outta there.
Ah, okay.
So what are these?
These are actual just pieces of.
It's a bone shaped thing.
That's cute.
Ah, what's the ingredient?
Uh, ground up chicken.
They don't put any of the
stuff we like, like salt.
I'm sorry, I'm just looking at my dog.
I mean, he's such a little idiot.
I love him.
It kind of tastes like there's
chicken broth in it, but.
I, I couldn't eat the whole thing.
It's definitely pretty dry.
Good to me as the, uh,
as the last thing, but.
Now keep in mind they're two bucks.
The last dish you had was 19.
Yeah.
Yeah.
You wanna bring one of your sweet, sweet,
well-behaved dogs over here to try it.
Try it.
Um.
Yeah.
Jasper, come here.
Jasper.
Maybe he'll jump out.
Come here Jasper.
Come here, Jasper.
Okay.
Oh, oh.
Jasper, come here.
Jasper.
Daddy.
Come buddy.
There's your daddy.
He ain't gonna jump out of nothing.
No, he wants to be carried.
He's like a little deer.
He could do a flip over that thing.
Sean is.
Sean, hey, we haven't
lost faith in you, buddy.
Barbara.
Hello buddy.
Barbara.
Barbara.
Hello.
Alright.
Bye.
Now, I think just give him the,
just hold the bone up to him.
You wanna try this?
Oh yeah, look at it.
Like he loves it.
Oh, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
That's a lot.
Whoa.
Okay.
That was that quick.
You like it?
Oh, he loved it.
He did love it.
$2. And it's not, it's not bad.
Alright, let's see if I can get him to obey.
Here, sit step, stand up here.
Oh, okay.
Jasper, sit.
Down.
Down.
Okay, good.
All right.
That's enough, 'cause we don't ever feed
them stuff that's, uh, human grade, so.
Human grade.
I get a little afraid of what might happen
at the other end, you know what I'm saying?
But he seemed to love that.
It's cheap.
I think that it's bone shaped, which
tells me not for human consumption.
So I like this one.
I like this one better than the other one.
You like it better?
I like it for dogs better.
It's a lot cheaper.
Okay, it is a lot cheaper.
And I'm not tempted to eat it.
This does feel like you're just wasting
money on your dog and I know that
people do that in this town, so, okay.
I'm not gonna disagree with
you 'cause I actually thought
it was quite good, The Waffle.
Oh, The Waffle.
Yeah, down there on Sunset.
I've passed that place a few times.
Never eaten there.
Okay.
Our next items are from Tail o' the Pup.
This is a doggy pup, which is a skinless pup
with bacon flavored dog cheese for $6.95.
Oh gosh.
And a doggy beer, a non-alcoholic
beer formulated for dogs for $7.50.
Well, a doggy beer.
A doggy beer.
It doesn't taste like beer.
It says coconut water for dogs, but it has
some other taste in it that I don't like.
Uh, it's just kind of strong coconut water.
But, but we just let Barbara out.
That is weird.
Because we put Barbara
in and she jumps out, so.
It's like sour.
She's just sort of
wandering around right now.
Yeah.
Organic coconut water and water.
Coconut water for dogs.
Huh?
So skinless, I like the sound of that.
Okay, Barbara.
She's right there.
Just watch, just watch.
She will, she will take it out of your hand.
She will take it right outta your hand.
Barbara, you got out so easily.
Now she's sitting down, she's
trying to be a good girl.
I don't, I don't want that,
I just want to eat dog.
Bacon cheese comes on strong.
I mean, this is a dog's dream, dude.
It is strong.
You know what?
And, and it's reasonably priced.
I would like Sean to be able to taste this.
Maybe this will be the thing that
motivates him to get over the thing.
Okay?
Barbara, Barbara.
Barbara.
Yeah, you hold Barbara.
You hold Barbara.
Barbara.
You hold Barbara.
Come on, Sean, yes, you can do it.
You can do it.
Come on buddy.
Come on, Sean.
Your sister believes in you.
Go on, come on.
Come on, come on, come on, come on.
Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes.
Okay, so.
Sean, you're breathing a little hard.
There's you some beer, Sean.
Get yourself a nice cold beer boy.
Not my hair.
Not the hair.
Okay.
He's got a wittle mouth.
I guess this is why it's skinless so
that they don't have to bite through it.
It's good, huh?
You like it?
Yeah.
You deserve, okay, you
deserve every bit of that.
Now you want some water?
He likes the water.
You made it, buddy.
You made it out.
You made it out.
You made it out.
That was so impressive.
Barbara, you want one?
Come here.
Come up here.
Come on, come here.
She, she didn't jump anymore.
She can't jump as much anymore.
She, I mean, she did jump
right out of the pen, but.
This one's got a nice puppy container.
It's so themed.
I like the themed.
You give 'em beer.
That's not really beer.
It's pretty awesome.
Do you see how much he enjoyed that?
And I enjoy watching him.
Look at him now, he is
just wired for life, man.
He is ready for it.
I think this is now going to be the top one.
The top.
Yeah, I think this is the top.
I think we're going to gold medal retriever.
Oh look, look.
Ja, Jasper, Jasper wants.
He wants out.
Jasper, you want some?
Can you try.
Jasper's showing some drive?
Yeah.
Jasper, use some initiative.
Do it, Jasper.
You got it.
Do it.
Jasper.
Come here, Jazzy.
Peanut butter Jade.
Come on, get over here.
Uhhuh.
You know, he's, you know.
He's so timid.
I love it.
I mean, maybe he'll be motivated by
the food in the next round maybe.
Yeah, we do have other rounds.
Quick reminder, check out the
newest episode of Mythical Kitchen
over there on their channel.
The Kitcheneers cook it up, spending
$50 at Dollar Tree and at Erewhon.
Mythical Kitchen Channel.
Okay, next up you have the Frankenweenie
from the Morrison, which is chopped
hot dogs with rice for seven bucks.
That's a lot of rice.
Hot dogs.
A lot of hot dogs.
Rice is good for a dog, I've heard.
If, if, uh, if, if jade has tummy trouble,
she gets put on the, on the rice diet.
Come here, come here.
Hmm, come in.
I mean, it's pretty simple.
Boring.
But, yeah, it's not exciting.
Oh, he's doing the drumming again.
He should be in a band, a metal band.
Look at him.
He is so intent on getting out.
He only plays speed metal
at this point though.
Double time.
Okay.
And Jasper's, not Jasper's
over there just crying.
That's my alarm clock every morning.
That's how it gets you up.
I wonder if I could get Jasper to jump out.
He just settled down.
Jasper, you want this, Jasper?
Come here, Jasper.
Oh yeah.
Sean, did you see how easy that was.
Sean, he just did it so easy.
He just jumped right over it.
Give it go, you need a little stand.
Don't be disappointed in him.
Okay?
I think he's gonna like it.
Yeah.
Okay.
Yeah, take a breath.
You like it?
All your plan.
Okay, I think that's plenty.
He's just trying to pick the dogs out.
I don't want her.
You can give Jade a little rice,
so she doesn't feel left out.
That's not gonna hurt her.
No, I want her to feel left out.
Anything that she eats that's not her kibble.
Boy, we are paying for
it throughout the night.
Oh really?
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, she does.
She's got a weird GI system.
Come on Barbara.
Come up and get it.
Come on.
Uh, this is boring.
She's trying to be really well behaved.
The kids, the dogs love it.
You got it.
But I, I think we're moving
Mess Hall down because.
Yeah.
It's just too expensive.
I mean, it's.
And they didn't do anything special.
It's, it's clearly just a, it's a human dish.
I mean, there's nothing dogged up about it.
This one at least has a hot dog in it.
So we're doing a switcharooney.
You might as well just get the
salmon, you know, for yourself
and share it with your dog.
At least that feels doglike.
Right, right.
The Morrison.
All right in at Poo-dull.
Do we have anything that will
dethrone Tail o' the Pup?
Last up from Burgers Never Say Die,
these are bee dogs, dog bites, meat
dog treats that are made in house each
day and contain no seasoning for $2.
Burgers Never Say Die.
Great burger.
They do like a smash burger that.
It's like a McDonald's style.
Those, yeah.
I like McDonald's style.
Oh, there he goes.
Look at him.
Do it buddy.
Do it.
What BPM do you think that is?
You almost can.
Great burger, questionable logo that
I am now seeing for the first time.
Yeah, what is the deal with this?
It looks like a tampon.
Oh.
Yep.
Well.
We're gonna have to rethink that guys.
This is probably, for as good as their
burgers are, this unseasoned burger.
Needs seasoning.
Yeah.
But dogs don't mind.
Dog don't know about seasoning.
Look, I think Sean's gonna come take some.
I think he's gonna do it.
I think.
Sean, if you just get that back
leg up a little bit higher, you'll
grab the top of it and then you
can catapult yourself right across.
Get that.
And why is Barbara, there she goes.
Yep.
Alright.
Alright, Barbara, you, good girl, you did it.
Here you go, baby.
Jasper, are you gonna jump out again?
He's done it.
Jasper, you did it and it was so easy.
Oh, every time you say his name,
his ears go up a little bit.
Jasper.
Not for me, I guess.
Well, not that time.
No, no.
The first time you did it, he did.
Jade is like, what are you guys doing?
Like she said, why are you guys like this?
Hey Sean, what if you get on
top of Jasper for a boost.
And then, oh.
Jasper did not like that.
Jasper did not like that.
Okay.
Jasper did a little, he snapped at him.
I know.
I know, baby.
Look at Sean.
He's backing off a little bit now.
He's like I'll try the back wall.
Okay.
Jasper's making me sad,
we gotta let Jasper out.
Jasper, stop making Stevie sad.
Oh, now, now he doesn't
want Sean to get to close.
Come here, Jas.
I know that was your spot.
Jasper took it.
Jump.
Come here.
Jump.
Yeah.
Yay.
See how easy it is, son.
You doing so good.
I know, Sean, you want to so bad.
I wish you had longer legs.
But you know what?
Jasper can't drum like that.
Sean's attempts are not making me sad.
Let's hold on here, bud.
Oh wow.
Okay, so.
How motivated is he after he
gets a little taste of that?
Yeah, buddy.
Does he like it?
Yeah.
Does he like it?
It looks like Sean is looking at Jasper.
He's like, oh, what is it like over there?
What is it like eating your unseasoned beef.
Buddy.
Poor guy.
Yeah.
Go get him.
Oh, come on.
Okay, I'll go.
Let him eat something.
I'll get him.
He's working up such a sweat.
He always get the legs.
I got your legs.
I got your legs.
You did such a good job.
Come on.
Come on.
Okay, let's try a little bit
of this, see what you think.
Oh, Jasper's really jealous now.
I already gave you some Jasper.
Jasper being a little bit mean, huh?
Being a little bit mean.
He'd never had a cheeseburger
before, that was the first time.
That's enough.
I'm sorry buddy.
You have a little bit.
We can have a little bit more.
Okay, so this unseasoned beef.
Whoa, okay.
Alright.
Good luck tonight.
Good luck.
Um.
It's still better than Mess Hall.
Mess Hall.
Yeah, we basically, we like by the
way, Mess Hall, good restaurant.
We had a quick, we had our
holiday party there one year.
That's right.
You remember that?
Mm-hmm.
We like 'em, but we think they're
basically just doing a human
meal and calling it dog stuff.
Everyone else is doing dogs human
stuff, but making it very doglike, but.
Tail o' the Pup.
This is the definitive ranking here.
That's it.
Take it here, sit down.
Tail o' the Pup is the gold medal retriever.
Good work, Tail o' the Pup.
Good work doggies.
Thanks for commenting and sharing this video.
You know what time it is.
Hi, my name's Kelly and I'm a dog hiker from
Colorado Springs, and this is my pack today.
And now it's time to spin
the Wheel of Mythicality.
Could you imagine doing
that with our four dogs?
No.
Dog hiker.
Dog hiker.
I guess that makes sense.
That's cool.
It's time for something to get outta here.
What is that?
It's this little, the squirrel in its
underwear air freshener that I've had under
there, because you know how it smells under
there because of our feet under there.
Oh.
It's time to get outta here.
He doesn't smell great either.
It didn't go far.
