Bangkok, Thailand — Thai
Raina attempts a 1.7 kg rice challenge at Mubra, a restaurant located in the basement of a Bangkok shopping mall, featuring an omelette, crispy pork, and rice. She completes the challenge in 6 minutes, praising the high quality of the crispy pork for its tender, juicy interior and crispy exterior, and wins a 500 baht prize.
What was great: The omelette was excellent, the crispy pork was juicy inside with a perfectly crispy exterior, the rice challenge was one of the best tasting challenges ever, and the soup complemented the meal well
What could improve: Nothing mentioned
The Dishes
The challenge meal at Mubra consists of a substantial 1.7 kg (approximately 5 lbs) plate featuring three main components. The omelette, served alongside fragrant rice, opens with exceptional heat and flavor that immediately impresses. The star of the plate is undoubtedly the crispy pork, which stands out as notably tender and juicy on the inside while maintaining a satisfying crispy exterior. This is a crucial detail since crispy pork can often turn out dry, but the preparation here demonstrates excellent technique and quality. The meal also includes a complimentary soup that Raina appreciates for its ability to help with consumption and digestion during the challenge.
The Experience

The restaurant staff are welcoming and supportive, cheering on the challenger throughout the attempt. The atmosphere is casual and encouraging, making the challenge experience enjoyable rather than intimidating.
Value & Pricing
The challenge comes with a 500 baht prize for completion, making it an attractive proposition for those confident in their eating abilities. The value is exceptional given the quality of ingredients and generous portion size.
