Thank you for commenting on this! Constructive criticism is always helpful for everyone. My husband and I always cringe when Fiasco and Steve try to pronounce something a little foreign to them. I do feel that as a professional vlogger there should be some preparation and professionalism. Or if they themselves can not pronounce please refer to another member of the dining party to help.Please review the menus before you arrive and learn how to pronounce the dishes before the camera is pointing at you. Fiasco and Steve especially can be painful to watch when they struggle with pronunciations! Why do they do this to themselves? Google it and listen to someone say it. It takes 10 seconds. If you still have trouble, so be it, but at least you will be in the ballpark.
I think the words that they generally try to pronounce are just foreign words to them and not just stumbling on common everyday words. Over all they generally do a very good job and are professional. A little reviewing of the menu prior to dining and googling a pronunciation would be better than totally butchering.I can understand how a mispronunciation can happen. You can say a word perfectly in every day life but when a camera is pointed in your direction and you are trying to give a detailed reviewed while trying to hit the bullet points in your head, there is a chance for error.
