I love how Mark's wife adapts to any environment. She's just chilling in the back with their son in the middle of the busy market. I love all your videos
The lady that made the tacos, soups, and handmade tortillas treated you both as if you were her sons. I could feel the love she had as she made you the plates and bowls of soup/stews with all the condiments. Guatemalan people are some of the nicest people you will meet. ❤
If we don't call a truce. In a country where it is forbidden to speak out loud, the only thing you can do is dig graves and die at the same time. Before the elections, in Spain itself, support Russia. What is Russia's fault? Children of mothers are dying in a war that was started to vent negativity on the people and to group a platform on which to make money for the West and get rid of the Russian and Ukrainian people. Have you come to your senses? Are you enjoying the genocide? You are emotionally in Europe and the West, but at this point no one understands, the place of reasoning, they are doing to continue the war that is genocide of the people over the people of Russia and Ukraine, which hinders the politicians and authorities who steal and divide the money after the destruction.
For some people, some cultures...watching people enjoy your prepared food, it's a form of showing love and it's thrilling to see the delight it brings.

Aww mann @edgarcardona193 thats whats up! I'm happy they made it out your way too! I think I was out there about 30 yrs ago... Not for the food tho 🤣 Take care bro ✌👍
Hola saludos. Yo aquí emocionada mirando este video, porque él está en nuestro país, comiendo y saboreando nuestras comidas típicas . Desde Xela saludos!👍🏻
In the rest of the world (as far as I know), you either have absolute cleanliness like Japan but not the vibrancy, or the other way round, very vibrant, but inevitably looks a bit "dirty", like Bangkok. So this video is an absolute eye-opener for me. And I think how they can keep it this way is they are doing the best kind of "diversity" - not through forced immigration (I see all people are of the the same ethic origin from the video) and stupid ideology, but through an organic process of absorbing the best from other cultures (you can see it from their food alone).
@@clifford4393 In Guatemala there is a lot of diversity. There are areas with black people, near the coast. There are indigenous people, mestizos, white people, etc. You have a little bit of everything and we live in the same places and enjoy the same food. We are currently suffering a migration crisis, in which many South Americans come on their way to the USA and some Salvadoran thugs who flee from Bukele and settle here. It is starting to be a problem too, added to the gangs that still exist in this country.
Guatemala, always has been clean; it’s their culture. In the old old days, used to be known as the “tacita the plata” or “silver tea cup”…! Because of its cleanliness…! The food, is Mayan origin, and also a blend of Spanish and Mayan cuisine..!!! The Spaniards brought spices and other ingredients… and took back chocolate and other items..!! Corn is king in Guatemalan cuisine.,, there are innumerable dishes and drinks made with corn and made for centuries…!!! Nothing is casual and new..!! Except your Italian, Chinese, French, Asian, cuisine..!!! Guatemala is not that well known to the world, but it is well known to the Guatemalan people, and that’s all it matters…!!
Well Pablo needs a little bit more knowledge this Central market was the first cementary of Guatemala City up to this day there are some people still bury there, the Dona Mela has close to 50 years of servicing customer, and the hot dogs are call shucos, plus the market is behind the cathedral and one block away from the Presidential House
I'm so proud to born in my beautiful Guatemala we are so rich in food, culture and love to the touristic people. My mouth is watering, thank you visiting us.
I love love love the Latino people and everything about them. Their family values, their food, their culture, their food... their food. I've been watching you for several years now and those video journals are always my most favorite.
Pablo is a great companion for this kind of food trip and food reviews. He gives such positive vibes. I hope Mark does more content with him, they're a great duo.
I miss 😢 Guatemala! I was born in LA but grew up in Todos Santos, Huehuetenango, Guatemala 🇬🇹. I cant wait to go back! Thank you Mark for reminding me of memories and new things I never knew. Wow. Guatemala is growing without me :( but grateful 🙏 its being known more & more. 2024, Guatemala! Here I come!
Same I was born in San Fernando Valley, California but we’re from Agua caliente. We’re pretty close to huehue. About 45 minutes away from it, my parents used to go to huehue every 2 weeks to get those wonderful fruits and vegetables. I just miss it all 😢
Woooow qué chido y qué rica se ve la comida de Guatemala!! La neta que cuando estuve ahí me encantó el país! La gente es super buena onda y sus ciudades super bonitas :) Lo curioso es que compartimos también mucho en la gastronomía y los guatemaltecos le dan un toque único super delicioso. Tengo que volver para comer más de lo que no pude!
I'm happy that pablo took Mark to the right places to taste our food, you just missed atoles. Guatemala is a very underrated country, 4 different types of culture, 22 languages, more than 50 typical dishes, the main proof of the first man in the America's and lets not talk about our touristic places cuz ill never end haha. I invite everyone to visit our country, you'll not be disappointed at all. 🇬🇹🇬🇹🇬🇹
OMG I'm sorry but i never expect from hearing Guatemala city that it is soo very clean organize and very beautiful city and mouthful food as well. Hopefully i can travel this country. ❤❤
Desgraciadamente esa es la imagen que los gobiernos guatemaltecos se empeñan en dar al mundo y que el departamento de turismo en el país es muy ineficiente, dependemos mucho dé los youtubers que nos visitan y han visitado ; ellos son nuestros mejores embajadores , gracias a estos y estás grandes personas ❤🇬🇹
Guatemala is a very interesting tourist destination, however the government hasn't really done a good job promoting it so it's not as popular as it should be, it's very scenic and has good climate so it's possible to visit all year round.
As a Guatemalan watching your vids for a while you have no idea how happy and excited i got when i saw the title of the video i hope you enjoy the food and your time in my country❤

Thank you Mark for visiting my country, I have been living in Minnesota USA for the last 25 years and i haven’t been back to Guate since. I’ve been a big fan since you had 20,000 followers and I’ve enjoyed your videos and a lot of your content during pandemic. Thank you again for sharing my culture and my country!!!! Aaa just one more thing, i hope besides the food you discovered the hidden treasure of Guatemala, MY PEOPLE!!!!
Finally!!! Thank to come to my country, I have been a huge fan of your vídeos, me and my mom enjoyed your vídeos during the pandemic and we still watch your videos together. Thank so much, to show the delicious food of Guatemala. 💜🇬🇹🇬🇹
Its true, the central plaza's are a really cool feature of many towns in Central America. Its always nice to sit in the evening and get a slice of local life. I miss Guatemala, such a beautiful country full of warm and lovely people.
Whoa...my first time watching Mark vlogging Guatemalan food, fruits, interaction with the vendors & good u have a tour guide Pablo [he's cute] very fluent in English...thx for this video
This is not just a food & travel review channel ....This is a cultural documentary that makes me appreciate our planet and I will support this channel till I die. 👍👍🥰🥰
Amo ver videos como los tuyos, me emocioné tanto cuando UA-cam me recomendó este video. Te he visto por todo el mundo, empecé a seguirte en tus viajes por Pakistán, Irán, la India, etc. Creí que difícilmente vendrías por acá, mi tierra guatemalteca es hermosa, ojalá hayas podido visitar el interior de la república. Nuestro país es muy pequeño, pero sorprendentemente nuestra biodiversidad es enorme. Tenemos muchos microclimas, especies de flora y fauna endémicas, nuestra cultura es una de las más ricas de América Latina. Nuestra población cuebta con 25 etnias, de ellas 22 son mayas, 1 Xinca, 1 garífuna y los ladinos o mestizos. Hay mucho que conocer: Tikal en Petén (entre muchos lugares de ese bello departamento); Río Dulce, Livingstone, Quiriguá en Izabal; Semuc Champey y los biotopos en Las Verapaces, Antigua Guatemala en Sacatepéquez, Chichicastenango en Quiché; Los Cuchumatanes en Huehuetenango; la costa del Pacífico como Monterrico en Santa Rosa; entre muchísimos lugares más. Espero que hayas tenido una gran estadía en la tierra del Quetzal, de la eterna primavera y de la gente más hospitalaria. Gracias por visitarnos.
Puchica bos!! Born in Guate, raised in the US, if there's two memories I hold dear in my heart of Guatemala, you got them both. Shucos and ceviche. Great job and thank you!!👍👍
Great to see you here Mark, I hope you’d an awesome trip around Guatemala, this is a country with such a great food, and foremost amazing hard working people. Thank you for visiting us 🇬🇹
Hola Lopez el shuco lo consumimos antes del almuerzo o antes de la cena , suena raro pero es una comida que se consume cuando vas a la carrera de un lugar a otro o en un break antes del almuerzo o la cena.

Thank you so much for visiting Guatemala!! 🇬🇹 I’ve been following you since the beginning and I’m so happy to see you finally visiting my home country! 💖
The Guatemalan ketchup is very different than the American one, and the Worcestershire sauce is practically a part of most recipes in Guatemalan cuisine. Ty, for sharing this great video.

Por lo menos yo me recuerdo que mi abuelita la usaba mucho en ciertas comidas y también la miraba en las mesas de ciertos restaurantes. La usan en sopas y yo creo que en el chow mein guatemalteco tambiénn pero no estoy segura. Saludos!
Its about time you came to Guatemala Mark! A very warm welcome to the land of the eternal spring. We are welcoming and love receiving tourists from around the world. Im really glad you enjoyed the food and thank you from the bottom of my heart for your help promoting our amazing country. Guatemala is a hidden gem.

I could live on those sandwiches! What a combination of ingredients, especially the cabbage and the mayonnaise/mustard combination! I love the trips you take and share with us. Thanks and may your family be blessed!
I love my Guatemala. I was just there 2 weeks ago, I did not want to come back to the us. The food is amazing, I remember that Mercado when I was little I wish I had more time to go back there and try the food once again. And not be so much in a rush like I was. Hope you enjoyed our Guatemala with the most amazing people, delicious food and colorful country 🇬🇹🩵🤍🩵
And that's EXACTLY what's wrong with this channel. He fakes it all the time just to not offend all the soft people. I much prefer he tells the truth so other people can avoid those places where it's not that good. It's literally impossible for everything to have a "wow" factor.
@@porfiriato84I don't necessarily think he's faking it. There have been times when he didn't like the food. He just has a wide pallet of taste so he appreciates different flavors
There is nothing wrong.Mark respects the culture and food and highlights the region’s history through local delicacies,spices,vegetables,people..his vlogs are wholesome and has positive vibes..his vlogs just do not revolve around trying and rating a restaurant but more than that.
When Mark says his authentic signature "Oh Wowww"; that means the food is bomb & delicious as f**!!!! Great video!! Love the Guatemalan culture!! Enjoy Mark & family!! ❤
I feel like in the USA with all the Amazon Prime & Grocery Delivery services we lose some of the community that comes along with the food markets like you find in Guatemala, Central America, SE Asia, and other parts of the world. Everyone coming together to buy the things they need feels like such an interesting (and maybe important?) part of human connection that we're missing out on in the US! Love Guatemala! Absolutely can't wait to go back in January! 🇬🇹
THANK YOU FOR VISITING GUATEMALA AND THANK YOU FOR APPRECIATING OUR TRADITIONAL FOOD, THE BEST FOOD IS SERVED IN THE MARKETS OF GUATEMALA I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS, YOU ARE A HUMBLE AND SINCERE PERSON GUATEMALA WILL ALWAYS RECEIVE YOU WITH OPEN ARMS, GREETINGS AND BLESSINGS FROM NEW YORK.
Yeah man the world knows tacos are Mexican food that dates back to the Aztec empire, tacos are not food from Central America and neither are the Micheladas there is a lot of dishonesty and it’s embarrassing.
@alexescobar4325 much love to Mexico and all but damn yall to prideful farrealz lol my bad they call it a tortilla and not a taco sorry we aren't the same also 😅 see the difference
@@slowli5942 tacos are Aztec food only not Mayan Guatemalan food y’all from Central America are very dishonest but it shows how successful Mexican food is and how it impacts other countries especially Central America.
Yeah delicious, love it so much, avocado also my fav😋😍. They have fruit there that I've never seen before, Guatemala is a new worldfood. Every dish is so rich in flavor and pure.😍
My dad is Asian, my mom is from Guatemala, and I was burn in Queens. Thank you for putting Guatemala on the map. I hope you had some Guatemalan tamales. It would be nice for the world to see how delicious Guatemalan tamales are.
@@paultinajero9733the is no originals. Mexico and Guatemala share similar gastronomy since we were part os Mesoamérica. Mexican tamales goes in a corn leave and Guatemala goes in plátano leaves..
Everybody is welcome to come to Guatemala, here we have a lot of fresh Vegetables and fruits, good weather and the people is so kind with the tourist. ❤❤❤
Omg I've been watching your videos for YEARS and I've always wondered when you would travel travel to Guatemala 🇬🇹 you are me and my mother's absolute FAVORITE foodie 🤩💙🙌🏻🫶🏼🍽 Thank you for visiting my country !!!! 🥹🥹🥹 I can't wait for your upcoming videos ! I love you!
This is the beautiful part about the world. Wonderful cultural foods like Guatemala 🇬🇹 and so many other countries. Good stuff brother, keep it up, now I’m missing Anthony Bourdain.
I would've laugh to see Mark try the pipian and tamales. Honestly my favorite Guatemalan food. I'm Mexican but whenever my mom brings some food from her friends I always go for the pipian it's so good
Primera vez que veo a alguien comer ceviche con tamalito, normalmente lo comen con tostada. Que alegria verlo en nuestro País. Gracias por venir y disfrutar de nuestras comidas. Espero haya disfrutado a lo máximo.💙🫶🏻🇬🇹
Well I translated that pretty good. He's happy to see that you're showing all the good foods of his country. He sees food stuff in Tostitos (celviche ) instead of tamales the good meats, and The joy it brings him knowing your showcasing his heritage..... He's loving it 💖 Also all the food; He never saw so much food look so good 👍 Thanks you for visiting his homeland...ect. All I know is I'm hungry now 😋.
🇬🇹 food on another level indeed Mark. Their version of 🫔 is 🔥. You truly are one of the few beacons of light in this cruel world. The world will be a better place if more people would like you who genuinely appreciates other cultures.
Mark es un excelente ser humano ❤ me encanta ver las caras k hace cuando prueba las comidas ❤ lo he mirado lanbiendo sus dedos,comiendo del mismo plato k alguien más le comió..k Dios te bendiga Mark y te cuide siempre en todos tus viajes❤❤❤
Me gustan los videos de Mark's, son muy bonitos, y gracias por pasar por mi querida Guatemala, sentí una gran nostalgia cuando paso a comer al mercado central, aunque no lo crean se me rodaron las lágrimas, y se me hizo agua la boca viendolo comer, muchas bendiciones Mark
Mark, to me, your wife your son and you have the best life ever on earth. The three of you travel, visit, and see places on every corner of the Earth. I've learned so much about cultures and daily lives of other countries through your wonderful videos. I would call you a Doctor (Ph D Degree) of Traveling For Food. Whenever you retire, there should be books and movies about you, Mark. You are a very special person on Earth. You have the best behavior, personality, temper, and attitude I've ever seen on a person. Thanks for all the great videos. I love every single one of them. Again, thank you so much for your hard work, Mark.
I wanna see Mark and this guy in a food eating contest 😂 The guy is like a young Mark in training..going through all the dishes like nothing..loving every minute of it
Those shucos look amazing. Holy moly. I just ate and it's making me hungry! I also loved the tortillas (tacos) with the radish salad and crumbled chicharrones!
Mark your videos from my homeland make me so homesick. I love how you portray our food, culture and traditions to the world with such respect, warmth and appreciation. Thank you, gracias infinitas!
Thank you for highlighting our Mayan gem. Our culture, our food, and our land is a vibrant one welcoming all visitors. God bless you Mark for visiting Guatemala 🇬🇹💙🇬🇹💙🇬🇹 #chapinlandia
Tacos are not Guatemalan food it’s Mexican from central Mexico invented by the Aztecs and the Michelada drinks are also Mexican from the norther region.
So tempting..here I'm in India recovering from Flu and the Guatemalan food is so homely...and the broth oh god that will make me climb Everest..and Marks description is tempting..suko and ceviche would be my fav Not to mention fruit tray 😍😍😋😋 thank you Mark
26:38 When I was a little kid my mom and dad used to take me to the Parque Central and buy me some churros from that exact same spot. You brought back such happy memories from my childhood. TY!
I would just love to try the food there. Everything looks so good!! The coconut seafood soups and fish. The Chocolate!! Oh and thar crusty bread with meats and sauces❤❤❤
I love how Mark's wife adapts to any environment. She's just chilling in the back with their son in the middle of the busy market. I love all your videos
True, she is not seen many often because she is behind the lens, buy we love her too!
Her name is Ying
And their son is Michah
I love how he shows us there’s so much different food yet to explore 💯💯💯💯💯✈️

Best coffee I ever tasted was Guatemalan true and also recently very impressed by Ethiopian

You are emotionally in Europe and the West, but at this point no one understands, the place of reasoning, they are doing to continue the war that is genocide of the people over the people of Russia and Ukraine, which hinders the politicians and authorities who steal and divide the money after the destruction.
I always wanted you to come to Guatemala and taste our food, now that you're doing it, it's really satisfying to see how much you're enjoying it
Those avocados at the market looked AMAZING.
Thank you Mark for visiting my country, I have been living in Minnesota USA for the last 25 years and i haven’t been back to Guate since. I’ve been a big fan since you had 20,000 followers and I’ve enjoyed your videos and a lot of your content during pandemic. Thank you again for sharing my culture and my country!!!! Aaa just one more thing, i hope besides the food you discovered the hidden treasure of Guatemala, MY PEOPLE!!!!
Finally!!! Thank to come to my country, I have been a huge fan of your vídeos, me and my mom enjoyed your vídeos during the pandemic and we still watch your videos together. Thank so much, to show the delicious food of Guatemala. 💜🇬🇹🇬🇹
Its true, the central plaza's are a really cool feature of many towns in Central America. Its always nice to sit in the evening and get a slice of local life. I miss Guatemala, such a beautiful country full of warm and lovely people.
So much new food introduced to me in this video, I love it! Thanks Mark!❤
I am so suprised how neat an clean Guatemala is 👍👍
Whoa...my first time watching Mark vlogging Guatemalan food, fruits, interaction with the vendors & good u have a tour guide Pablo [he's cute] very fluent in English...thx for this video
This is not just a food & travel review channel ....This is a cultural documentary that makes me appreciate our planet and I will support this channel till I die. 👍👍🥰🥰
So true! Thanks, Mark!!🌹
Amo ver videos como los tuyos, me emocioné tanto cuando UA-cam me recomendó este video. Te he visto por todo el mundo, empecé a seguirte en tus viajes por Pakistán, Irán, la India, etc. Creí que difícilmente vendrías por acá, mi tierra guatemalteca es hermosa, ojalá hayas podido visitar el interior de la república. Nuestro país es muy pequeño, pero sorprendentemente nuestra biodiversidad es enorme. Tenemos muchos microclimas, especies de flora y fauna endémicas, nuestra cultura es una de las más ricas de América Latina. Nuestra población cuebta con 25 etnias, de ellas 22 son mayas, 1 Xinca, 1 garífuna y los ladinos o mestizos. Hay mucho que conocer: Tikal en Petén (entre muchos lugares de ese bello departamento); Río Dulce, Livingstone, Quiriguá en Izabal; Semuc Champey y los biotopos en Las Verapaces, Antigua Guatemala en Sacatepéquez, Chichicastenango en Quiché; Los Cuchumatanes en Huehuetenango; la costa del Pacífico como Monterrico en Santa Rosa; entre muchísimos lugares más. Espero que hayas tenido una gran estadía en la tierra del Quetzal, de la eterna primavera y de la gente más hospitalaria. Gracias por visitarnos.
Puchica bos!! Born in Guate, raised in the US, if there's two memories I hold dear in my heart of Guatemala, you got them both. Shucos and ceviche. Great job and thank you!!👍👍
Great to see you here Mark, I hope you’d an awesome trip around Guatemala, this is a country with such a great food, and foremost amazing hard working people. Thank you for visiting us 🇬🇹
Ya quisiera ese hot dog en mi lunch se ve sabroso saludos chapines de un mexicano.....
Marks wiener ?
A ese hotdog le decimos shuco.
Hola Lopez el shuco lo consumimos antes del almuerzo o antes de la cena , suena raro pero es una comida que se consume cuando vas a la carrera de un lugar a otro o en un break antes del almuerzo o la cena.
también lo llamamos chevere en el oriente de guatemala aquí en la usa vine a saber que en la capital le llaman shucos 😂😂
Esto lo van copiando a los chilenos “completos” los reales saben
I LOVE the vibe of that country. I love the Seafood and fresh fruit.
If we don't call a truce. In a country where it is forbidden to speak out loud, the only thing you can do is dig graves and die at the same time. Before the elections, in Spain itself, support Russia. What is Russia's fault? Children of mothers are dying in a war that was started to vent negativity on the people and to group a platform on which to make money for the West and get rid of the Russian and Ukrainian people. Have you come to your senses? Are you enjoying the genocide? You are emotionally in Europe and the West, but at this point no one understands, the place of reasoning, they are doing to continue the war that is genocide of the people over the people of Russia and Ukraine, which hinders the politicians and authorities who steal and divide the money after the destruction.
Thank you for visiting Guatemala and spreading the word, and proud to be Guatemalan
Thank you so much for visiting Guatemala!! 🇬🇹 I’ve been following you since the beginning and I’m so happy to see you finally visiting my home country! 💖
The Guatemalan ketchup is very different than the American one, and the Worcestershire sauce is practically a part of most recipes in Guatemalan cuisine. Ty, for sharing this great video.
Perdón pero que la salsa inglesa sea tan común en la comida de Guate nunca lo había visto.
@@dxabier Si claro que si! Es la Lea& Perrins, en una botella obscura con. Por lo menos yo me recuerdo que mi abuelita la usaba mucho en ciertas comidas y también la miraba en las mesas de ciertos restaurantes. La usan en sopas y yo creo que en el chow mein guatemalteco tambiénn pero no estoy segura. Saludos!
Its about time you came to Guatemala Mark! A very warm welcome to the land of the eternal spring. We are welcoming and love receiving tourists from around the world. Im really glad you enjoyed the food and thank you from the bottom of my heart for your help promoting our amazing country. Guatemala is a hidden gem.

I could live on those sandwiches! What a combination of ingredients, especially the cabbage and the mayonnaise/mustard combination! I love the trips you take and share with us. Thanks and may your family be blessed!
I like that avocado that peels so easily.. I love their central market.. It's so clean ⭐
Mark’s positivity is so contagious
I love my Guatemala. I was just there 2 weeks ago, I did not want to come back to the us. The food is amazing, I remember that Mercado when I was little I wish I had more time to go back there and try the food once again. And not be so much in a rush like I was. Hope you enjoyed our Guatemala with the most amazing people, delicious food and colorful country 🇬🇹🩵🤍🩵
I've never seen Mark disrespect a dish. He loves everything 🙏🏻. Love your channel Mark! Such a great person👊🏻
You’ve said it BEST 😃🏆
And that's EXACTLY what's wrong with this channel. He fakes it all the time just to not offend all the soft people. I much prefer he tells the truth so other people can avoid those places where it's not that good. It's literally impossible for everything to have a "wow" factor.
@@porfiriato84 That's exactly what I was gon comment
@@porfiriato84I don't necessarily think he's faking it. There have been times when he didn't like the food. He just has a wide pallet of taste so he appreciates different flavors
There is nothing wrong.Mark respects the culture and food and highlights the region’s history through local delicacies,spices,vegetables,people..his vlogs are wholesome and has positive vibes..his vlogs just do not revolve around trying and rating a restaurant but more than that.
When Mark says his authentic signature "Oh Wowww"; that means the food is bomb & delicious as f**!!!!
Great video!! Love the Guatemalan culture!!
Enjoy Mark & family!! ❤
I'm salivating seeing this gorgeous and delicious fruits. I'm traveling to Latin America soon, can't wait to taste everything! ❤
Was definitely a highlight! ❤
I feel like in the USA with all the Amazon Prime & Grocery Delivery services we lose some of the community that comes along with the food markets like you find in Guatemala, Central America, SE Asia, and other parts of the world. Everyone coming together to buy the things they need feels like such an interesting (and maybe important?) part of human connection that we're missing out on in the US!
Love Guatemala! Absolutely can't wait to go back in January! 🇬🇹
THANK YOU FOR VISITING GUATEMALA AND THANK YOU FOR APPRECIATING OUR TRADITIONAL FOOD, THE BEST FOOD IS SERVED IN THE MARKETS OF GUATEMALA I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS, YOU ARE A HUMBLE AND SINCERE PERSON GUATEMALA WILL ALWAYS RECEIVE YOU WITH OPEN ARMS, GREETINGS AND BLESSINGS FROM NEW YORK.
Finally the food from Guatemala 🇬🇹💯💯💯💯 thank you Mark for putting Guatemala and the amazing people on the map god bless you 💯💯🙏
Tacos are Mexican tho lol and so is like most of “their” food haha corn is from central Mexico tortillas a mano is like the most Mexican thing lol
@luisdelgado-cp5eo lol and your point is buddy 🤣
Yeah man the world knows tacos are Mexican food that dates back to the Aztec empire, tacos are not food from Central America and neither are the Micheladas there is a lot of dishonesty and it’s embarrassing.
@alexescobar4325 much love to Mexico and all but damn yall to prideful farrealz lol my bad they call it a tortilla and not a taco sorry we aren't the same also 😅 see the difference
@@slowli5942 tacos are Aztec food only not Mayan Guatemalan food y’all from Central America are very dishonest but it shows how successful Mexican food is and how it impacts other countries especially Central America.
Beautiful people and a beautiful country 💛
sigo a mark desde hace como 4 años y al fin acabó la espera de que viniera a Guatemala ✨️✨️
Igual yo
you gained my respect not disrespecting my country like other influencers have. ty for coming 🇬🇹
Yeah delicious, love it so much, avocado also my fav😋😍. They have fruit there that I've never seen before, Guatemala is a new worldfood. Every dish is so rich in flavor and pure.😍
MARK !! you finally went to my country! I wish I was eating all that delicious Guatemalan food !!! THANKS FOR THIS VIDEO ❤❤
My dad is Asian, my mom is from Guatemala, and I was burn in Queens. Thank you for putting Guatemala on the map. I hope you had some Guatemalan tamales. It would be nice for the world to see how delicious Guatemalan tamales are.
Mexican tamales are the originals?
@@paultinajero9733in Guatemala they make it a lil diferent
@@paultinajero9733no
@@paultinajero9733 quien dice eso? Los tamales de Guatemala son diferentes a los mexicanos, son mas elaborados.
@@paultinajero9733the is no originals. Mexico and Guatemala share similar gastronomy since we were part os Mesoamérica. Mexican tamales goes in a corn leave and Guatemala goes in plátano leaves..
Everybody is welcome to come to Guatemala, here we have a lot of fresh Vegetables and fruits, good weather and the people is so kind with the tourist. ❤❤❤
Which restaurants / street food stalls would you recommend? Can’t wait to visit!
@@sachi6032 The ones showed in the video.
Thanks for your content, Mark. Been subscriber for years.
hey, very nice.
My beautiful Guatemala! Im glad you had a great time here. Welcome back anytime!
Omg I've been watching your videos for YEARS and I've always wondered when you would travel travel to Guatemala 🇬🇹 you are me and my mother's absolute FAVORITE foodie 🤩💙🙌🏻🫶🏼🍽 Thank you for visiting my country !!!! 🥹🥹🥹 I can't wait for your upcoming videos ! I love you!
Guatemala sure has a lot to offer. Everything looks colorful and vibrant.
This is the beautiful part about the world. Wonderful cultural foods like Guatemala 🇬🇹 and so many other countries. Good stuff brother, keep it up, now I’m missing Anthony Bourdain.
Anthony was on another level. My hero
I would've laugh to see Mark try the pipian and tamales. Honestly my favorite Guatemalan food. I'm Mexican but whenever my mom brings some food from her friends I always go for the pipian it's so good
In guatemala it’s called Pepian not pipian
@angelomoore6860 all I know is that it's delicious
Siempre creí que los tamales eran de México pero son de Guatemala sierto
@@maurofuentes2678los tamales de Mexico son diferentes en tamaño y sabor que los tamales de Guatemala.
🙂
hay tamales de muchas formas, diría que los mas famosos son los Mexicanos, pero seguro que cada país le pone su toque especial…
Primera vez que veo a alguien comer ceviche con tamalito, normalmente lo comen con tostada. Que alegria verlo en nuestro País. Gracias por venir y disfrutar de nuestras comidas. Espero haya disfrutado a lo máximo.💙🫶🏻🇬🇹
Well I translated that pretty good. He's happy to see that you're showing all the good foods of his country. He sees food stuff in Tostitos (celviche ) instead of tamales the good meats, and
The joy it brings him knowing your showcasing his heritage.....
He's loving it 💖
Also all the food;
He never saw so much food look so good 👍
Thanks you for visiting his homeland...ect.
All I know is I'm hungry now 😋.

🇬🇹 food on another level indeed Mark. Their version of 🫔 is 🔥. You truly are one of the few beacons of light in this cruel world. The world will be a better place if more people would like you who genuinely appreciates other cultures.
Agreed
🔥🔥🔥
Great Guatemalan host you found there! Very friendly guy.
Watching this vid Guatemala looks friendly and inviting, a destination to consider visiting
Excelente video me alegro que a Mark y a su linda familia que les haya gustado la comida guatemalteca
Mark es un excelente ser humano ❤ me encanta ver las caras k hace cuando prueba las comidas ❤ lo he mirado lanbiendo sus dedos,comiendo del mismo plato k alguien más le comió..k Dios te bendiga Mark y te cuide siempre en todos tus viajes❤❤❤
Me gustan los videos de Mark's, son muy bonitos, y gracias por pasar por mi querida Guatemala, sentí una gran nostalgia cuando paso a comer al mercado central, aunque no lo crean se me rodaron las lágrimas, y se me hizo agua la boca viendolo comer, muchas bendiciones Mark
Comiendo tacos en Guatemala????🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
@@MrPegasso20 Yo comi pupusas en Mexico y no estaban tan buenas. Para tacos mejor en Mexico. La gente de todos los paises se copean pero. Por que no?
Va a acabar con un gran chorrillo jajaja
Tengo otro motivo para aprender inglés
Bro that hotdog sandwich thing looks FIREEE!!!
Thank you for visiting my country and showing it's delicious, colorful and beautiful gastronomy! I love your videos
Mark, to me, your wife your son and you have the best life ever on earth. The three of you travel, visit, and see places on every corner of the Earth. I've learned so much about cultures and daily lives of other countries through your wonderful videos. I would call you a Doctor (Ph D Degree) of Traveling For Food. Whenever you retire, there should be books and movies about you, Mark. You are a very special person on Earth. You have the best behavior, personality, temper, and attitude I've ever seen on a person. Thanks for all the great videos. I love every single one of them. Again, thank you so much for your hard work, Mark.
Agree . It's so much fun when you can travel with your family and earn too . He is definitely living my dream life
I’m so jealous over the tropical variety of fruits they have! The USA has nothing this amazing!
Pablo is a great travel guide
He really is!
My heart is happy watching this video with all the amazing food and people. Viva mi gente
No
I wanna see Mark and this guy in a food eating contest 😂 The guy is like a young Mark in training..going through all the dishes like nothing..loving every minute of it
he throws most of the food away. think about it.
@@crypto2frensi’m sure he doesn’t finish everything he buys. Once you get full, your taste buds aren’t as receptive
He shares with his crew behind the scenes
Those shucos look amazing. Holy moly. I just ate and it's making me hungry! I also loved the tortillas (tacos) with the radish salad and crumbled chicharrones!
Great food tour in our lovely Guatemala, thank you Mark!
Both of my parents are from Guatemala, I haven't been there since 2007. This video makes me want to go back so bad!
That food looks amazing!!!! I'm drooling!!! 🤤🤤 🤤
Drooling for wood?😏
@@markushaapala7330don't be rood
Lo ceviches de Guatemala son de otro nivel....exquisitos
Love the avocado history !!!! Didn’t know Hass Pillage from Guatemala, and now we finally know . Thank you
Mark your videos from my homeland make me so homesick. I love how you portray our food, culture and traditions to the world with such respect, warmth and appreciation. Thank you, gracias infinitas!
Thank you for highlighting our Mayan gem. Our culture, our food, and our land is a vibrant one welcoming all visitors. God bless you Mark for visiting Guatemala 🇬🇹💙🇬🇹💙🇬🇹 #chapinlandia
Guatemala Street Food looks so fresh and delicious!
Those fruits look unusual, very sweet and tasty.
👍😋🌶️🧀🍗🍖🌭🌮🌯🍝🍲
Tacos are not Guatemalan food it’s Mexican from central Mexico invented by the Aztecs and the Michelada drinks are also Mexican from the norther region.
So tempting..here I'm in India recovering from Flu and the Guatemalan food is so homely...and the broth oh god that will make me climb Everest..and Marks description is tempting..suko and ceviche would be my fav
Not to mention fruit tray 😍😍😋😋 thank you Mark

When I was a little kid my mom and dad used to take me to the Parque Central and buy me some churros from that exact same spot. You brought back such happy memories from my childhood. TY!
Guatemala looks so alive! I love it 👏🏽
After watching so many of his videos, america has no markets like this. Every where else has superior markets👣🌻 thank you for educating us 🥑🍍
I would just love to try the food there. Everything looks so good!! The coconut seafood soups and fish. The Chocolate!! Oh and thar crusty bread with meats and sauces❤❤❤
Mark Not an exaggeration but this channel's production qualities are seriously hitting TV standards❤🇧🇸🇧🇸
I am so glad that you finally showed globally where you are located when visiting a country for foods.
Shout out to your guide. He explained everything so well, i love the way he was so enthusiastic about sharing his cultura with you.
