Ok 👍👍👍
ThNks so much for visiting Lebanon
Hope you go to Israel when it's more peaceful like your buddy Mark Weins did. But kinda let down you labelled 0:33 as Palestine.
Red
@hedhuntervizo6749 I support Israel, but Palestine exists.
It was such a pleasure to co-host part of this episode with you Sonny, especially that we got to try on camera some of my favorite foods and speak about topics that really matter to us, Lebanese 🇱🇧 🙏🏼
you look like a Arabic version of Angel a nephiew of Guga's hahaha also kida same vibe :D
You and Sonny work very well together, both of you are very entertaining
You were awesome to watch and listen to. I learned so much about Lebanese culture from this video. Thank you!
Lebanon has such beautiful cultures and amazing foodways. In a way Lebanon is like a person living with bipolar disorder. In that it has such high culture, history, and landscape with tragic revolution, economic, and governance problems.
I just subscribed to your channel!
It was a pleasure meeting you Sonny and participating as a co-host in this episode about street food in Lebanon 🇱🇧. Thank you for showing Lebanon and its great food to the world. Keep up the good work
Good job Layal!!😍❤️
@@hananzaatari thank you glad you enjoyed watching this episode
Great participation Layal.
@@abdallahtahouf thank youu🙏🏼☺️
@@layaltheguide ✌️
I'm a Lebanese/Armenian who lived in Lebanon all my life before moving to study in Switzerland, I've been following you on your journey for 5 years now, I always wondered if you visited real authentic street food places, and now I'm sure of it. You really went to the best places in Beirut! Also, the factual documentary parts in the videos are pretty accurate, Keep up the great videos man!
Arman are kings of sfeeha ❤😊
You be living like a king when you came back to Lebanon with Swiss currency.
hello,i'm a lesbian too
Every single time I watch this show, I tear up because my heart fills with so much respect, i love how sonny educates the world on these different cultures, it's so amazing
The bread store owner still has a pure heart
I bet his bread warms up the heart. ❤
❤😂Brother you like the street food videos Subscribe my channel❤😊
Yes, i would practice it to
... with 4 rapidly-clogging coronary arteries.
@@trevorsmith7753 ok whitey
I love how you incorporate subtle nuances of a country's history in your videos.
My favorite thing about this channel!
this is how Bourdain started. Adding bits of history. I'm loving it
@@curtisblair18 talking about a country's history over a nice meal. So fulfilling
It’s a food travel channel. It’d be weird if he didn’t.
Palestine is not a country. It never was a country. Palestine is a region and it was always a region
I loved this episode so much, and Rob was so enthusiastic and filled with joy sharing his native cuisine with us all, he gushed love. Wow.
I'm so fascinated by all the unique combinations of flavors and textures in Lebanese food! It really seems like a culture that has retained it's history and that warms my heart 🤍
I was 7 years old when I last visited Lebanon (I'm 58 now), it was the tourism destination for many. I can still remember the pine smell when we took walks near the apartment we stayed at, and the fruit stands at the side of the road. Some of our elders decide to move to Lebanon for their retirement years. But the current financial situation, drugs, kidnapping, are all hurting Lebanon to a point of no return.
We really need to see the world one day without a Plagued middle east
Second guy was so genuine and passionate, a real pleasure to watch you both together
Lebanon is such a beautiful country starting from the kindest people you'll ever meet to the nicest food you'll ever eat .. Love from Oman
It really is. I visited for 2 months a few years ago and genuinely had the best time of my life.
@@ivotenotocensorship5247 can't agree more 👍
You killed it man!
I particularly loved 0:33, 10:22 and 13:30.
Perfect naming on the map and origine ;-)
Yes
The Lebanese filmmaker guy is an excellent guide! I hope you'll have him on the show again
00:33 sunny sending his message loud and clear with the map😆😅😅😅😅😅
Loved Rob! Such a fun and positive personality, hope to see him again!
I peeped the Palestine instead of Israel on the map. Love it 😉
I think that ur doing a great job introducing countries cuisuines, especially in times of economic hardships. U r literally helping these shops and markets in huge way by exposing them to tourism through ur vids
We had a Lebanese restaurant near my house that was absolutely amazing. Their food was so delicious. I was so sad when they closed a few months ago. I spoke with the owners father and he was telling me he’d only been in the states for a few years. They were the nicest people and just made you feel so welcome in their restaurant. I hope they open another location again soon
I wanna go to Lebanon so badly. Such a gorgeous country.
love how the map in the beginning labels Palestine but not Israel 😅
Co-hosting with Sonny was an absolute delight! We delved into my beloved cuisine and explored meaningful Lebanese subjects - pure joy! 🇱🇧🙏🏼
There are many Lebanese people here in Australia and have many wonderful foods in our stores and on our tv's as a result. I was very interested to hear that they're many more Lebanese people outside of Lebanon than within though with all the conflict and major financial issues, it shouldn't be surprising. Its a shame about Lebanon but I'm so happy to have all the migration that its caused.
as a brazillian, can confirm
bunch of lebanese people here, and to be honest, one of the, if not the best people to have around
so heartwarming people, and dude, the food is SOOOOO GOOD
there is a reason why Kibeh and Sfiha are among brazil's national dishes =)
😅
@kakkopanda As a brazilian, i didn't know kibe and sifha was among our national dishes, i thought it was coxinha, picanha or even pão de queijo 💀💀💀
@@lets_chat_above_ shut up bot
@@Kitsune-gc5tu Tell me a single lanchonete that doesn't have at least one of the two? At least in my state, it's easier to find kibe and sfiha than croquetes or risoles for example
Of course pão de queijo and coxinhas are our crown jewels, but kibe and sfiha are also part of our day to day life =) that's what I meant
@@kakkopanda i've seen esfiras and kibe's in alot of places, but it isn't our national dishes y'know
That shawarma wrap looks so good, lebanese food and spirit are amazing. Love from Morocco
Sir, I love your videos. I especially loved watching your enthusiasm grow for lebanaon and the ME region 💕
This is what I’m talking about as a Lebanese-American who’s gone to Lebanon so many times I’ve lost count, the street food, the souk in Tripoli the everyday hustle of Lebanon! You made me proud Sonny! This made up for those visits in the hotels were the food wasn’t that good I could just tell by the videos, the street food blows away any five star hotel you’ve gone to in Lebanon.
As an Israeli, living in the USA as well, I can't wait to have peace with Lebanon and Iran, I want to visit both countries very much. Salam Alaikum
What do you think of Hezbulah firing rockets into Isreal? Do you guys condemn the terrorists??? They don't want the Palestinians into their country, :(
@@NoamTheGOAT50 I don't believe Iran will ever be peaceful. That's one country that just harbors so many terrorist groups and evil ideology. Too much propaganda. Poor Isreal. Iran will never accept Isreal.
❤😂Brother you like the street food videos Subscribe my channel❤😊
why would you ask that@@wombat5252
Yes! The lebanese cuisine and culture has been a part of my life in Brazil. Many of my childhood friends were lebanese descendants. Their dishes are so popular that even my non-lebanese family incorporated them.
Great review. Sonny always respects local culture. Humble and tries to learn new things. That is what makes this show so special.
Absolutely ❤
i love how in min 0:33 it is palestine and not israel
based
as it should 💖
Just another phenomenal video. The choice of places, the authenticity with which the country is portrayed, the food, the co-hosts, the whole thing is just outstanding. Bravo Sonny. I hope there's a part 8 of this in Lebanon 🇱🇧
The quality of production is like nothing I've ever seen before, 10/10
Thanks for the video. It is authentic like the most of your older videos
I visited Beirut with my wife two years ago, and we absolutely loved it! The food was the best I've had in my life! To this day, I have yet to eat a chicken that tastes like in Beirut. The taste was amazing!
Sonny and his team should start group based food tours I'm almost certain alot of people would who can afford it would love to experience a slice of the best food review show in real life
The food on this show is nice and everything, but seeing all the different people really warms my heart. 💛💛
Welcome to my country, glad you got to hangout with Roberto Helou.
Nice to see you here.
🇱🇧🇱🇧🇱🇧
Simply amazing! I have now Lebanon on my bucket list to visit. Such a beautiful oriental culture.
you'd love it! maybe wait until the wars are over lol
As a lebanese i recommend you to come when tensions with isreal decreases
The Lebanese deserve such better luck. Heartbreaking how they can't seem to catch a break at all. Really want to visit Beirut.
you can still visit it whenever you want and ignore what is happening outside as we Lebanese do ,if you ever decide to feel free to ask i can help
Amazing video. Love how it’s more than a food show and shows the history/culture behind it. Would love to see the Dominican Republic next 🇩🇴
What is this map at 0:33 ? Why did you left out Israel?
cuz he's based
It was amazing and really entertaining, thank you Sonny!
Great to see how you find kindness in all of your adventures (maybe Egypt, not so much) 😊
I don't know what the hell do y'all want from our country, can y'all please keep your crap out of our country
Hahahah I'm not sure why, but 15:40 when Sonny started shaking the Clifford Shawarma while talking, I was dying laughing.
The countery beloew lebanon called Israel not Palestine.
Cry about it 😂 loser lol
The map statement 0:33. :'D
This is so interesting, we live in south Central Kentucky, in a very rural area. A young couple from Tripoli has a very small but fantastic restaurant in our tiny town. They moved here in 2015. They buy lamb from us.❤
Nothing better than Lebanese grilled Lamb. 🤌🤌🤌🤌
3:01 "Fresh bread can make you smile" So true!!! There's nothing like eating fresh, hot bread no matter where you are in the world!
This is amazing! I'm subscribing right away!
This is great. Thank you for sharing it.
Grew up in Abu Dhabi as an expat and the city’s favourite cuisine was undoubtedly Lebanese. Fresh, healthy, affordable, lots of choice and satisfying. Found it initially difficult moving to a place where there were no Lebanese or Middle Eastern restaurants.
Omg..sonny u just made my entire day❤
THANK YOU for covering this beautiful country GOOD JOB!!!!🌲🌻🥀
i love rob energy in this episode 😂 so funny and knowledgeable
lebanese are the best people ever..love all the way from malaysia❤
I noticed what you did there 33 seconds in the video on the map . . Love your videos.
Sonny, Action, and Peter Santenello, all helping me with missing Bourdain
This place looks so beautiful, the food, the people... i need to visit!
Wow you should put a book with all the foods you have came across. It will be a record that all of future can refer to.
Has anyone carefully looked at the map displayed on this video showing where Lebanon, Palestine and Syria are? I don't see Israel on it.
So it’s displayed correctly then.
, 100% , because all this aria is Israel, and those are provinces? Yeah, or it's just an really old map.
Just shows it correctly
This is what the world should look like.
Respect! From beirut
I'm so glad I found Sensei Lawrence's Food Channel. This is amazing.
Sonny… you’re so lucky to have experienced Lebanon 🇱🇧 food and culture.
Literally best ever food reviews ❤
I would love to visit Lebanon and try the food and enjoy the architecture and hospitality. The city looks incredibly majestic, praying for peace to everyone who calls this beautiful country home.
I would suggest you wait till the shit simmers down there
@@seansingh4421 indeed especially if you're American. The whole Middle East is inflamed right now.
❤😂Brother you like the street food videos Subscribe my channel❤😊
the food at the tripoli souk has me convinced… i need to go there asap 😭
@@seansingh4421will any of us still be alive? It has been going downhill for decades.
Feels like your the next Anthony Bourdain meeting different people tasting different foods but a bit more light hearted I love this.
I like how you that synced up, with the scratching sound and the old man's hands at the end. Nicee ~
Sonny, thank you for sharing Lebanese culture with the world. I also noticed what you did in the intro as you talked about Lebanon and maybe it wasn't intentional but it did mean a lot.
Food brings people together 🙏🏽🙏🏽
Sharwarma is my go to food. Im british but love this so much. With hummous pickled chillies salad and sauce all wrapped in a fresh baked naan...is deeply satisfying. Then finish that with a pistachio milk cake...wow. proper comfort food
Sonny, if you're still in Lebanon, swing by an area called Deir Al Ahmar. Great village with a lot of amazing food and history. Enjoy.
Lebanese food.... amazing. The kebab, shawarma, falafel. It's the most slept on cuisine that a lot of people enjoy.
Those deserts looked amazing.
We need peace all over the world so we can enjoy all this wonderful food and culture.
According to the map shown at the 0:33 second mark, there is no such thing as Israeli food and culture.
There cannot be true everlasting world peace until the Prince of Peace comes - the Lord Jesus Christ.
The Lord Jesus Christ died for your sins, was buried and rose from the dead on the 3rd day according to the scriptures (The Gospel 1 Corinthians 15:1-4). If you believe in your heart that God rose Jesus Christ from the dead and confess with your mouth Jesus Christ is The Lord you will be saved (Romans 10) Go to a quiet place and ask the Lord to save you and forgive you from your sins - Believe on Jesus Christ and call out to Him before it's too late
Beautiful map representation by the team haha@@southernsingledad1315
It was beautiful for the team and Sonny to add context to the video.
13:27
Well, that's not a very touchy map is it?
This is video makes me hungry actually 🤤👍
omg I remember watching him last year struggle in Egypt with the tahini! it's hilarious seeing him having a hard time with it still!
That was interesting to watch, thank you
"Well, sometimes it would be nice for resilience to not be a baseline requirement. . ." Honestly got me, right there. And on the relative scale of suffering, my life is fine, but dang you feel for folks who are really suffering without end out there😢
Notice that the map doesn’t mention Israel
Same.
idk if you have an amazing camera(man) or great video processer but the image quality at the market is stunning
I love to see how people can bond over food amazing videos
I just want to shout out the map you used at 0:32 seconds that correctly names Palestine. It warms my heart. I love you even more now, that was great! It's been rough being Palestinian lately. For like.....75 years. Thank you! I see many places remove Palestine from the maps. We need more of this! You guys are the best ♥️
I haven't even finished the video. I had to paus my TV, find the video on my phone, and give cred. Imma keep watching now. I hope you get to try makloube!!! It's my favorite dish 🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸
anyone gonna talk about how the map at 30 seconds just doesn’t have Israel in it
great production quality!
0:33 What an appropriate time to air this episode. Amazing work Best Ever Food Review Show!
I've been to that shawarma restaurant when I was visiting...probably the BEST eating EVER!❤
Editing team 10/10!!!
Finally another awesome episode of the great foods of the Middle East! 😀
man this is like a food network show!! i fricken love it!!
Damn all those foods are mouthwatering as heck
never been to any arab country but thier food looks very delicious and tempting. Everything seems so natural and honest but good. Maybe one day
Lebanon is NOT an Arab country. We're Arab speakers. But our DNA is Canaanite/European Mediterranean. Mind it.
@@freepagan
You know that cannanites are actually arabs right ?
I just love beirut for its uniqueness and vibrancy. A month a go i was there and still my heart hasn’t come back
best episode ever. omg that guy name rob has too much energy. love it
Lebanese is so full with authentic and delicious street food ❤️
best ever food channel just for India?? I'm exited. thank you for your good work👍
Beautiful episode,
What has been keeping me up at night however is trying to figure out why Ghana🇬🇭 hasn’t been toured yet💔
you said olive oil but there are literally huge bottles of sunflower oil all around the shop...
I went to Beruit with my mom and it was soooo beautiful there and the food was amazing!
you;re american?
@@habazlambazazathe6th989 Yes! American/Dutch
@@Sara-wb2bs you like lebanese men with mustache and a uni brow?
@@habazlambazazathe6th989 Haha, ur funny 😂😂😂
❤❤❤❤ i am lebanese and im so proud people are making videos about the beautiful country. too bad there is a war going on in south lebanon though.
0:33 Love the map where it says Palestine😍
Hello Sonny and team, thank you very much for your very entertaining and refreshing content. As a Moroccan I really like the Lebanese culture and the coolness of its people. And it really makes me sad each time I hear or read about the struggles they are encountering from the devaluation of their currency and the consequences of the horrific port explosion in 2020 because they are a really warm, kind and vivid community that really deserve much more better than the hand they've been dealt, and seeing this episode makes me even more willing to go and visit the Beautiful country of Lebanon and enjoy all what it has to offer. I just have one tiny objection, it's in regard of the font you are using to represent arab words : It's pure Gibberish and it has zero representation of the arab language ! I believe you can ask any arab follower and he will gladly write to you the right words to use in exchange for nothing ! Anyway keep up the good work and I'm sending my love to the Lebanese people !
Does it really matter? I think he just does that for aesthetic
