    Your videos are truly what i was waiting for to make my day a whole lot better. I stumbled upon the joniyeh one by accident as i was scrolling through youtube and then i ended up watching all of them. As a fellow lebanese 22 years old i feel so honored knowing that you've enjoyed this country although economically we are at our worse but spiritually we still have fiest and fire in us to keep going. I am so glad you choose to overlook all the fancy places and go deeply into the local life, tried to mingle with us, ate the food we ate and not the brand names you see all over the world. This economic crisis has hit us hard, and made a lot of us leave home sweet home. Being one of those who remained you made me smile for a couple of hours as i went through your videos and got nestalgic remembering all the memories i have in most of the places you visited. I honestly advise you to explore more. go to the ceder forests at shoof and al-baruk. please visit bayt al deen and the castle of moussa ( i insist on the castle and seek its story) . Go to al assi river and enjoy some rafting and some grilled fish. Visit Gaitta's Grotto (now thats the world's eight wonder take my word for it). As for food recommendations try taboule and fatoush these are A class salads, try warak inab bil zayt ( grape leaves). I wish you the best time. Make yourself at home. You are more than welcome at our home "lebanon"

    Shawarma in Lebanon is so tasty and special. Just a quick tip, the last bite in the sandwich is probably the best bite because all of the ingredients specially the garlic will be accumulating at the bottom. I hope you're still enjoying Lebanon, have fun :)

  • @bassembboustany
    @bassembboustany 3 роки тому +68

    Just a fyi: Fouad meant Tartor sauce, not Tartar. It's different as tartor is a mixture of garlic and tahina. Tartar is mayonnaise-based.
    Also persil is french for parsley.

    For the people who never had Shawarma,
    You know when you just got a good massage and you just lay there without moving a muscle, that feeling of weightlessness and head clarity is exactly how the last Shawarma bite feels like

    • @ALABBAS0
      @ALABBAS0 3 роки тому +4

      @ProudOfYourRoots
      That's unfortunate.
      But I'm not surprised,
      It may seem simple but
      It's very hard to ace a shawarma sandwich.
      It's the same here too,
      Most of the shawarma restaurants are pretty average,
      You have to know your way around a city to know where to get a good shawarma.
      So if a few bunch can create a tasty shawarma in It's place of birth,
      Even fewer would be around the world.

    You need to try the Syrian Shawarma, it is the same recipe as the Lebanese except we don’t put fries and we wrap it in a special thin bread. The bread is meant to hold everything together so you can fill up on the inside and not the bread.
