When people ask me my favorite comfort food and I say Middle Eastern they kind of look at me funny ?but it is all comfort and its the warm hospitality that goes with it I love it👍💕
Absolutely!
Arab hospitality! Love that you feature Palestinians and their culture.
My father and his family are all from ramullah. I always laugh when I see grape leaves that don't have beef and stewed with tomatoes. Or when I eat most hummus I just can't believe how awful they are. The figs he mentioned efinently brought back memories if palestine
Middle Eastern food is very easy to cook. Its very tasty and healthy. My fathers entire family is from ramullah. I encourage everyone to look up some recipes maqluba, fattoush,
I was salivating a few minutes into the video!! Two artists sharing what they love❤️
To take the origins of a traditional recipe and infuse it with creativity, while keeping the spirit of the dish intact. To keep the essence of the flavors but make it taste new, is an art. I have been to Israel several times and have come to know the hospitality and food of Arabs there. It is truly something special. Thanks for showcasing Samir and his restaurant. I cant wait to visit!
So generous of him to share these recipes;I'm so gonna try these dishes! Thank you so much for sharing this.
I love your channel, I remember finding you years ago on a Johnny Gat video. God bless you for honoring your culture in the face of so much adversity. If you know what I mean.
Oh I know what you mean--love Johnny Gat and I am honored that you decided to check out my channel! =)
@@blanchetv he is the real deal. I was honestly deceived by RT and alt media even though I was aware of the "question". But, it's nice to know I can enjoy a fine purveyor of cooking content and appreciate the fact that it is a righteous and just soul producing it lol. God bless and help the Arab nations you have a strong supporter here.
WomenRespecter9000 aww thank you so much. Grateful for viewers like you. 🙏 Like you I also used to trust RT, not anymore! 👍
@@blanchetv God bless you miss. Thank you for your pleasantness in carrying on a conversation with a humble viewer lol. I value your character and what you do.
All look so delicious
Thank You Blanche! I have shared with our Syrian cousins page on FB and following on Instagram! Loved this creative Chef 👨🍳 🥰
Wonderful to hear! Thanks so much and enjoy (his Shish Tawook is amazing too) 👍
Outstanding! You did it again!
Looks GREAT
Above all Its clean the kitchen is spotless, and hygienic u see there are many clean spoons there. and the owner is courteous .than comes creative and what looks to be delicious. Way to go Samir.
Samir, I love your dishes!! Mashallah, looks so delicious. Best of everything to you!!
Lots of good food
Such amazing talent,Samir!
This is why i fell in love with middle eastern cuisine delicious and healthy. That looks delicious 😋. Too bad I live in Florida if I ever go to San Francisco definitely wanna try his food.
It all looks sooo good. Love how creative Samir was with those dishes and the hospitality.
Beit Rima’s food brings me back some wonderful memories. I didn’t realize that Palestinian food is so similar to Lebanese food. I got to discover Middle Eastern food in Lebanon during my Erasmus year at the American University of Beirut about ten years ago. What to say, it was a revelation for a Norwegian who knew little about the sophisticated and rich Middle Eastern history. I’ll never forget that year in Lebanon and their unparalleled food.
Yes Lebanese food and Palestinian food are incredibly similar. There are some regional differences but for the most part they have pretty much the same cuisine ;)
Beautiful food! Great Chef!
Nice. I resonate with his story. I'm glad he's keeping it rustic because at the end of the day that's how Middle Eastern food is presented. Great content by the way!
Thank you so much, agree rustic is how we do it! ;)
Plz open one in Chicago!!!
Everything looks amazing
Blanche, I’m learning so much!
So glad to hear that, hope you stick around cause I have some exciting stuff ahead!!
Looks like heaven
His Mom looks like the famous Egyptian Actress Nelli.
I miss the Bay Area Arabic Food.
His dishes looks so yummy, it is making me hungry already.
Once again, you've brought an amazing video to us. I'm not even hungry right now, but I'm ready to book a flight to San Fran to visit this restaurant!! Thank you!!!
You are welcome! =)
Inspiring ....creative & diversity in each dish .....
Love this! Obviously I have to immediately follow Samir & Beit Rima on Instagram...beautiful use of local produce as well as taking authentic, traditional recipes to another level with wonderful invention...always the sign of a fantastic chef👌 naturally it sucks for me as I am a plane ride away but,yes,definitely at this moment in time people really need to invest their time and focus on their areas as there are a lot of hidden gems out there that need the support.
Glad to see Ray ( or Ray's hand ;) getting in on the beautiful food as well:)
Brilliant episode cuz❤👌
The man is a culinary genius! Thank you for another great video
When are you coming to Los Angeles Samir, I would love to try your food!
The food looks great. Well done Samir!
Bon apetit.♥️♥️♥️
Congratulations!
You're the most beautuful lady I have ever seen in my life.
My God! This looks amazing. I can't wait to visit the restaurant on my next trip from Chicago to San Francisco.
Give Pakistani dishes your day someday Blanche. It’s wholesome that wherever you are you make sure your surroundings are respected/respectful…your etiquette’s showcase it. ❤❤❤❤
Any dishes you recommend? Never had Pakistani food before!
Wonderful ! keep up the good work
Most Incredibly delicious Middleeastern cuisine. Would love to try all your recipes in my kitchen. Best of Luck!!
I need that fig plate ,it looks amazing ! Everything looks beautiful !
Enshallah I can visit the city soon and will def go to Beit Rima. Samir should be successful with these great dishes! Cannot wait to try! It’s such a weird time now. Let’s all get back to normal as soon as we can.
This looks amazing. On my must-try-right-away list now. Thanks for sharing Blanche. Love it.
Lucky you are within driving distance--get the chicken shish--tawook too. it is amazing!!
@@blanchetv Exactly! Congrats on reaching 50K subscribers by the way. Woohoo!
Basil Said thanks so much! Need to figure out how to celebrate with viewers somehow! 👍
Yum! I would like ready made stop and buy😄
Wow how clever! That all looks amazing. Which one was your favorite? What an imaginative young chef. All the luck in the world to him and his team at beit rima. I’m definitely going to follow him on insta. Thanks so much for such a cool interview, Blanche!
Thanks for watching Michael! It was so hard to choose my favorite, all of them were spectacular. The most surprising ones to the palate were the fig and the corn dishes. Now I find myself dousing corn with tahini any chance I get lol! I am totally going to entertain with the fig dish as an appetizer at my next party (whenever that might be =)
@@blanchetv hahaha I was thinking the same thing about the fig and labneh dish! Cheers 🙂
It is good.♥️♥️
Wow!!!! I’m going to go eat there in Daly City. I’m a Bay Area native. Thanks for the suggestion. 💗
Looks really tasty.
Good man and good food the best god bless you
Need to OPEN one in Los Angeles
Yummy. Wish we had Arabic restaurants here. The figs look insanely good! I love grilled corn and tahini!
Muchas gracias! Thank you for sharing the love, we so appreciate it, and I am sure you will learn quickly! Any questions let me know ;)
I love Arab food
wow
Best food
I loved the choice I wish we had something similar in London….I was born in Cairo….
I would imagine London must have lots of amazing middle eastern restaurants!
I need a restaurant like this one in SoFlo!
You never know, Samir might expand to the east coast! =)
@@blanchetv woohoo!
@@blanchetv I wish he will expand to North Idaho . No middle Eastern restaurants here at all in my area. With so many tourists I am surprised no one tried. Not sure if locals will support it but then we have a lot of people from CA that moved here.
@@nuhamiley3128 I am still astounded he opened 3 restaurants in 1 year, truly burning the candle at both ends in such a brutal industry (especially now with Covid restrictions) .But if he can scale the model I am sure he can expand all over the country in the future, you never know!
@@blanchetv We need this in Chicago. Chicago is a huge foodie town and a huge Arab population.
So enjoyed this. Please tell me, how your mom ? Always loved her in your videos. Jeff.
Thanks for asking! She had to go to the Holy Land and check on her brother who had a stroke, she will be returning home soon and I miss her can't wait to see her again!
wow he is so creative way to go Samir. Thank you for that for next time I am in SFO area. You are so lucky to be living in a cosmopolitan place like that things you take for granted. I did the hindby from your book Feast of the Middle East and I took a picture looks just like yours small size. I wish I knew how to send it to you.
Do u know what part of Palestine his parents are from? I will never forget the name as my childhood friend back home was called Rena but we have not seen each other or to talk to since then
@@nuhamiley3128 He is from Ramallah =) Feel free to send me the hindbeh pic on Facebook via messenger at Blanche's Feast In the Middle East--I would love to reshare it !
BlancheTV will try
BlancheTV I sent let me know
Yum! My daughter told me Samir made it to Chopped. That took me here. Congrats and good luck…
I wonder if balsamic vinegar would be a good replacement for the carob molasses. I bet this dish would go well with a side of hard cheese. Aged Havarti or Manchego comes to mind.
Yes so excited for him! If you can find a balsamic glaze that would be good, as it’s a bit sweeter than the vinegar. And yes those cheeses sound fabulous with this dish 👍
@@blanchetv yes that’s what I had in mind. Glazed or reduce some regular ones. Sounds awesome. I’d have to hit up my neighbor for some figs😋
Its wonderful to see such creativity in our food, is he going to open a branch in NJ :) Would love to try his dishes when I saw figs and pine nuts I just lost it hehe ... and the corn with tahini is interesting I really don't love butter but I love tahini so I will be trying to make it at home my family will think am a weirdo but I will give it a shot I think it will taste amazing.
The tahini and corn was OUTSTANDING- especially if you are not fond of butter. Just add some lemon juice, garlic, and sumac to it first. ;)
🔥🌹❤👑❤🌹🔥
I see 2 locations in SF on Church and Carl Sts. I thought I heard Samir say he has 3 restaurants. Where is the 3rd one?
Third one in Daly City sadly closed due to Covid restrictions.
@@blanchetvThat's too bad! Great to have two locations though. Thanks for the reply!
