Mark sir, this Trinidadian series is easily one of the best you have ever done. Trinidadian cuisine is truly on another level!! I always look forward to your fantastic videos!! You truly are a man for the peoples!!
@@natashajames2644 One my aunt's best friends was Trinidadian. Ma'am she made of the best dishes that still to this day was the best I've ever had in my life!! That dish called Doubles, love that!!
I find that Trinnidad have a Mystical Beauty….i’m Jamaican but whenever i see pics of Trinidad the colors of the skyline the sunset the water the greenery is different…just Magical..would love to visit one day
Trust me . Jamaica is more beautiful. You really do not know your own country. What I find is better in Trinidad than Jamaica is their hot pepper sauces. Trinidad gets number 1 in hot sauce, Jamaica is definitely more beautiful.
@@Junjo11 i didn’t say Jamaica was not beautiful in her Own right….i was only talking about the beauty of Trinidad this particular time…listen we dont shine brighter by dimming the light of others….everyone know how beautiful Jamaica is i am born and raised in Jamaica …can i admire the beauty of somewhere else without, feeling like Jamaica isnt beautiful ? Yes i can its called maturity….Tasia i love you My sister…no dosrespect
The shine this mark is giving Trinidad and tobago 🇹🇹 is truly immeasurable! These videos will live on for many many years to come.....the best spotlight on that country i have every seen.
@@stillirise7813 You are falling in the gutter whoever you are... Just clear off it was a genuine attempt to get someone to respect a person's name. Understand now Moore? Surname Ron.
Yes. Finally, someone is getting a complete, well represented tour. Mark is going to every corner of the country. Well done VisitTnT, Foodie Nation et al.
@@fitzgeraldseales9578 I know there are three types of plum I’ve seen in TT, the common ones we make red plums out of , the governor plums and the bigger hog plums , you see growing on the side of the road which no one I knew ate .I haven’t tried it but I’ve always thought we could make something with it .
I suffer from terrible mental health and just want to say Your videos take me away n out of my head so Thankyou Mark 🙏 , youre always so positive and happy its contagious .
Don't stay at home too much...get out and about. Relax outdoors, take a long bus ride, visit the beach and just chill there. Take along your favourite music or a good book and find a shady spot.
It's so refreshing to see all these new places AND faces of Trinidad and Tobago. I was getting a bit tired of seeing almost the same faces, and places each time a foreign RUclipsr visit our islands. I'm happy to see how much you enjoyed yourself Mark. ❤️
Agreed finally some real diversity and an honest representation of Trinidad culture, insteaded of a one-sided view manipulating the world. This is real trini culture.
All yuh give him some cascadoo, he wouldn't need a trini ID card he'll be a Trinidadian. He nah going home, captivating food and delicacies yuh call that. In the word of Mark emm! Emm!
I am a Trinbagoian, I take my hat off to you, "Mark" and your crew. Your videos of Trinidad & Tobago are "Excellent!"👌 Your Portrayal of the food and hospitality of the people are "Marvelous!" My Love for my country increased from watching these videos. All your videos from around the world are "Awesome!" May God continue to Bless you, your family and your crew; as you follow your passion around the world. 🌎
@@MarkWiens You're welcome. I hope you took home bottles of hot/pepper sauce. Saw how much you was loving it. Will there be videos on the the twin island, "Tobago?"
I have only recently come across this guy's videos and feel that I'm becoming addicted to watching them. I love that I'm being introduced to some places I've never visited in my own T&T...and my salivary glands are just going!😃 Thanks Mark...awesome job!
I need to go to Trinidad to experience this. There were many Trinis at University of the West Indies in Jamaica, and I always wanted to see their island. Thanks Mark for bringing this alive for me, it's like I was there. Much love from Jamaica.
Thank you for this beautiful series on my country! I love that you showcased some of the lesser known gems, hardworking persons, warmth and authentic beauty of our culture😊. You do a wonderful job describing and teaching Mark! Thank you for sharing our culture with the world! You are an honorary Trini and always welcome!💜😁🥳
Mark ate more pepper in his short stay than plenty of the Trini population eat in their lifetime 😂 This man is ah beast! Also this is the most thorough food vlog of TT from a foreign content creator
Man the hospitality showed by my Trinidad/ Tobago brothers and sisters was next level!!! Reminds me of the hospitality I get when I go visit family in Mexico. Trinidad and Tobago are definitely on the list!!!
Trinidad has its unique way of preparing fruit, vegetable, fish, sea food and meat using special herbs. The island looks beautiful and clean. And the people look friendly and lively.
The seafood Queen of Trinidad no doubt loves to pour her own heart and soul into cooking such delicious food for all the people she has surrounded herself with. Seems like she will continue to do what sparks her passion towards spreading positivity through the cuisine that’s somehow unique to that place. Great job as always, Mark. May God bless you steadily. The Trinidadians are certainly generous, kind and talented in more ways than one.
I have bought and ate Kay's food...she is the best on the north coast. I have never tried her sea food but looking at what was presented to Mark Wien and company makes me what to try it....
This made me shed a little tear. The quality of food from aunty Kay and the presentation just blew me away! As a Trini, so happy there are spots that are taking our local food to new heights.
Wow that food looks unique and fantastic. From watching this video Trinidad and Tobago is a place i must visit one day. Much Love from a Salvadoran.✌️🤝🇸🇻 🇹🇹
I am still trying to figure out how Mark can eat so much and still be this thin. I know him from his videos from around the world but his visit to TT 🇹🇹 is on another level. He eats so much.
I was happy when David Hoffman or Hoffman came to Trinidad and Tobago I watched the whole series but Mark went above and beyond and I'm so happy with the content so far he's not only trying the Indian delicacy but he's doing all the hot peppers sauces all the weird and unique food and trying everything that's why I like Mark and I would always say he is doing Trinidad better than David ever could.
Exactly a nice touch of the African culture and indigenous culture that has existed the longest. It's nice seeing a more honest review of our cuisine. I enjoy all different cultural staples in Trinidad so it was off-putting only seeing a one-sided view. I just couldnt finish watching David's series. Too disingenuous (no fault of his)
Just because Mark seems happy all the time doesn’t mean he always is. Sometimes our happiest friends and family we don’t check in because we assume everything is okay. Mark I love all the light and love you bring and pray over you and your family. Please proactively and consistently take care ❤️
Sooo much better than what chef Jason did with David. Excellent, varied foods to sample. Very inclusive of all the foods Trinidad and Tobago have to offer. ❤️
Hear nah..u are spot on..and with every new video i keep thinking of more food for him to try..Trini Chinese food, Tobagonian Blue Food and Curry Crab and Dumpling, Trinbago Christmas food..so much fooddddd 😁😉😋😏
Great video I'm glad you did this series I'm not from Trinidad but I've always enjoyed the food. Very culturaly diverse It's like the United Nations of Food.
The Seafood Queen is the epitome of vivacious Trini spirit!! I loved her!! And that seafood platter looked HEAVENLY!Havent been down that side of Trinidad in years - this vid makes me want to make a roadtrip there so bad now! All the food looks sooo good, the sea and coastline as well - and everyone was so authentically friendly and welcoming - combination of Caribbean and country hospitality! As a Trini myself, it's amazing that Mark ( a foreigner) is giving me new appreciation for my culture, and now I am excited to go there myself! Awesome video! ( And also awesome Trinis 🙂🙂 - cah forget to big up meh people hehehe!😌😊 🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹)
that second to last sentence resonates with me profoundly. his vids have me missing home rel bad! i grew up in South so some of these places up North i've never been but def want to go to.
He went to Jamaica, and his tour guide gave him a similar experience that he's recreating in Trinidad. I wish he would visit Tobago as well because I'm curious about it.
Even though am from St.Lucia I just love how this man captures the food culture no matter where he goes...there's no high-tech product crew...Mark you're the best because of your natural ability to capture the soul of why we love your videos...am sure you have been offered to do it with a bigger production crew but let me tell my bro Mark not all things are for sale....keep the good vibes flowing my bro from St.Lucia we love it
The aerial shots done by the drone really gives, even born and bred Trinbagonians, a breathtaking view of our beaches and countryside from literally another level. Superb editing skills. Well done Mark! 💯
Amazing work Mark and what a great experience ❤ thank you so much for all the wonderful memories you have given to me. It was an honour to be a part of your Trinidad and Tobago 🇹🇹 experience
The island and foods of Trinidad and Tobago looks really appetizing and the people are really friendly...Thanks for another great video Mark. I understand that their food takes on a special vibe at Christmas time.
Ohhh, don't get us started on Christmas!! Its a whole different type of mouthwatering food...pastelles, ponche de creme, mauby, gingerbeer, blackcake/fruitcake, peardrax, and the list goes onnnn.
As a Trini 🇹🇹 to d bone i could do nothing but smile and feel proud during this entire series. If you have been following Mark for long you'll know when you see the Satisfaction of content in his facial expression and i see nothing but joy whilst he was eating every drop of our Trini sweetness. #visittrinidad well done
I do really love it, when locals from everywhere around the world, proudly present their traditional foods, and could vibe with our smiley face while eat their foods 😍🥲
🇹🇹❤️❤️❤️you can never run out of the different foods to try in Trinidad. My country is so diverse you can never go wrong. The culture & people is everything. Such a great vibe. Thanks for sharing Mark🙏🏽
I am so glad i watched your vidoes on West Indies. It is so difficult not to like the inhabitants of this country and island. They are so friendly, so hospitable , so so wonderful human beings.
This was such a great tour! 👌 That Seafood Platter looked divine, loved the creativity of the Pineapple Chow and Raymond came through with that 'side of de road' Hog Plum Cocktail! 🇹🇹🔥 Great work also #VisitTrinidad and team for bringing this together!
This series of videos about Trinidad and Tobago food culture was amazing. I don't know why but this last vid made me tear up a bit. It was amazing seeing my country through your eyes Mark.
Coming from south trinidad I must say toco people are some of the friendliness people you can meet. Always love visiting. The atmosphere is clean calming and sooooo relaxing 😌
Yes trinis 'live, love, laugh'. They barely take anything seriously other than politics. They enjoy life and are grateful for it. That's why I love my ppl
It is truly amazing how Trinidad 🇹🇹 food is so versatile and encompasses so many different styles and flavors. This is only the 5th episode and I can't keep up with all the different varieties of food.
Oh Mark you Zak and the tour guides enjoyed all of that fabulous food!!!! The lady who was manning all those skillets of Lobster and beans and the salsa with the cucumbers. Then the chef preparing the fish, ribs, plantains. Frying fish first on the cast iron grill then steaming it with banana leaf as the cover Oh man!!!! They have the most wonderful resteraunts and views of the Carribean.
Being from the Caribbean islands we all have the same foods , just different names. Those are fish fritters , in Puerto Rico we call them "Bacalaoitos" salt fish fritters & shape them flat and round ! Omg delicious, and the green sauce they have is basically our "sofrito" base to all our dishes ! Our ancestors are the same "Tainos "
Mark the series of videos that you have provided to us is amazing! I have a father that is from Trinidad, I have never been there but I am going in March. So these videos have now given my husband and I places to go to when we get there. Much love and appreciation!💕
Trini 🇹🇹 here. I must congratulate Mark on his excellent showcasing of Trinbago. My grandmother used to boil the leaves of the hog plum tree and use it as an antiseptic for sore throat and it really worked. The actual fruit/plums are packed with vitamin C.
I love Mark! He is so cultured and brings out the best of the every flavor! Trinidad is so multicultural and he has managed to reach every taste. Awesome job! so proud to see the vids!!!!
Auntie Kay is a powerhouse, that huge seafood spread was just loaded with love and deliciousness. All the stops featured some delicious local snacks- pine chow, paimee, pawpaw ball, fresh baked pone😍 boil corn. The cutters by Auntie Hazel little parlor look real tasty too…at that point I would have been stuffed. But then Mark had a two heavy dishes after🤯(dat means I’m a lightweight at this eating thing😂)But Mark real get thru on this trip and deservedly so btw- let’s all thank him please for another fascinating showcase of our beautiful island 🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹
This series is BOSS! As a proud Trini I am discovering things about my country I did not know! Now I have to do more exploring. That hogplum..yum. Growing up we chewed the young hogplum leaves with salt for sore throat. It worked all the time!💯
Mark you have outdone yourself again... Thank you for shining a light on how beautiful our country, its people and food is. Thank you also to those who sponsored and worked very hard to make his trip such a success 🙌 👍 ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Mark Wien's videos of Trinidad and Tobago just makes my day. I thoroughly enjoy watching him experience our culture, people and food. Everyone was so hospitable and friendly, that is the true Trini experience. #ThankYouMark #visitTrinidad
Mark!!! I have to watch your videos on a full stomach because it’s pure salivation while watching the food prep and your sampling the food. The Seafood Queen delivered a feast fit for a king and YOU are the Foodie King. You made this food come alive. You elevated snacks like Pineapple Chow, Pone, that we take for granted. Thoroughly enjoyed this video. I’ll be replaying this one.
Word on the street is when mark left Trinidad 🇹🇹 he had so many bottles of peppah 🌶 sauce the intense heat coming from his luggage got him in trouble with air port security 😳
This was the best tour of Trinidad and this is why I watch MARK WEINS 🥰🥰❤️❤️ everyone loves mark and his family, also the best parts be when they say oh be careful with the chillies and he just take it like a real one 🔥🔥🙌 I wish to visit Trinidad soon.🥳
This seafood plattern at Auntie Kay's is absolutely mind blowing. Such a pleasure to watch you eat it. No super fancy 5 star restaurant wherever could beat it. That's the key to success by cooking. Keep it simple. Quality and preparation are already obvious just by watching the video. Soon you will reach the 10 million subscriber Mark and you've earned it, you've always been the #1 food vlogger and you ever will be.
I have fell in love with the tropical nature of this country what a scenery 😍 and the hospitality, and kindness of the people who live in it is unbelievable! I wish to travel here one day 🤞
You'll never find this goodness flavour any where else in the worlddddddd , fresh everything, from the sea , from our backyards , the best place in the world to be
I sat and watched this with a stupid grin on my face the whole time! I was so happy and proud! Mark you eating pepper more than we trini's! Lawd! Love it! Love it!
My beautiful country ❤ Here from Florida I left Trinidad and Tobago 36 years ago only been back one time in so long but still looks beautiful love it Mark !! I will try to visit next year ❤❤
Thank you Mark for bring black folks cooking. That's what am talking about. Yesss!!!!! Every culture must have the chance to show their cooking style. I love all foods. .
Mark, thank you so much for showcasing Toco! This is where our family is from. We felt so excited to see this video. Blessings! And a special shout out to Ling. May GOD continue to richly bless you all, in Jesus Name, amen.
Trinidad and Tobago.... I would have NEVER known about, or where they were, unless I saw this amazing video from mark. Thank YOU so much! I am wanting to figure out how a person gets there and what it takes! The food--and the WONDERFUL people who live there and cook their amazing recipes-- just have me in awe! Thank You, Mark....as always--- an INCREDIBLE experience!
@@TheGoogable are you dumb? So East Flatbush ain't a real place? Ali roti shop ain't around Bake & Things ain't around Brooklyn doesn't celebrate J'ouvert ?
@@TheGoogable my Grandmother move to East Flatbush, Brooklyn from Chaguanas and felt like she never left home the only complaint was Brooklyn couldn't compare to Trinidad around Christmas time. And the Yankees during the 1980 crack epidemic... You're right Brooklyn is not Trinidad but the way money is going now a day's you might as well settle for a bootleg Trinidad
You've done such an excellent job showing a beautiful variety of food, drinks, snacks, locations and overall experiences. Please thank everyone involved in putting together this visit. They all did Trinbago proud. It showed the common fan favourites of Trinidad and some places that many people didn't know about. Love that even Trinis get to learn something too!
We are honoured and appreciate u for visiting and showcasing our multi cultural twin island of Trinidad and Tobago!! Love from from Trinidad Mark and we love u!!🇹🇹🇹🇹🥰❤❤
This is an excellent food representation of what resides and is offered in our country Trinidad. So enjoyable to see our food guys invited and accomodated Mark Wiens to showcase our style of how we Trinis do it..big up to all the locations and amazing cooks/chef /great artiste in this video for making our mouths water. Amazing video
Mark, you have, hands down, showcased Trinidad BETTER than the Trinidad and Tobago Tourism Board! VisitTrinidad, and all others involved in exposing Mark to the levels of cuisine and experiences there are to be had in T&T (Trinidad so far, but with the thoroughness of these vids, I can see Mark doing a serious dive into Tobago soon, too...), job well done! You are the G.O.A.T.s in this series, for exploring the island with him!🏆 Mark! Much respect from a Trini abroad, who's finally seeing my lovely island showcased in a way it deserves!🙏🏻💜
@@VisitTrinidad Hi there! You guys stepped up, and had the deets that is needed for an in-the-know exploration of T&T! Mark brought the know-how of documentation and presentation, and a ready audience, to take it to another level - Brace yourselves for what is about to happen to you guys, as new eyes want to have a closer look, and experience it for themselves!😉 Do you mean that you are associated with the governmental T&T tourism board, or are you a non-governmental private entity/enterprise?
@@VisitTrinidad That is absolutely fantastic! My apologies. This is not the T&T tourism board of "old", that I knew, but something better, it seems! You guys tapped the right person to showcase the country! His experience at this type of documentation, and his viewership alone, was worth whatever you guys invested in, to make this happen. His reach is wide, and his views and assessment, trusted. You would do well to have him back for different Trinbagonian festivals and times of year. The quality of these vids are stellar! Props again to Mark...💜🎉
Thank you Mark for making it possible for me to travel from the comfort of my bed! The satisfaction i get from the food, the people, the places is so fulfilling .Love n respect!
I gotta say out of all the food they eat today, the one with the amazing variety of spread pork, plantain, smoked ribs & fish are the most intriguing & water-drooling for me.

He's a serious pepper freak! Wow!

No doubt! I cannot tolerate pepper at all, so I just watched in awe as this man devoured those peppers. Honourary Trini for that obsession alone.

@@Ajm833 That’s Trini to de bone🇹🇹😀
Same thing I am saying
He's a boss with the pepper
Their food is amazing, but the people are even more amazing!! That presentation of the seafood feast is a work of art!
Just because Mark seems happy all the time doesn’t mean he always is. Sometimes our happiest friends and family we don’t check in because we assume everything is okay. Mark I love all the light and love you bring and pray over you and your family. Please proactively and consistently take care ❤️
Sooo much better than what chef Jason did with David. Excellent, varied foods to sample. Very inclusive of all the foods Trinidad and Tobago have to offer. ❤️
Coming from seeing both, I can't agree with you more. Such rounded coverage of Trinbago 🥰 .
Hear nah..u are spot on..and with every new video i keep thinking of more food for him to try..Trini Chinese food, Tobagonian Blue Food and Curry Crab and Dumpling, Trinbago Christmas food..so much fooddddd 😁😉😋😏
Don't blame David it was the attention whore he was running around with that made the series leave a bad taste in people's mouth
@@lincolnclay7925 most definitely. Not blaming David at all. Just hope when he comes back Visit Trinidad looks after him. Chef Jason was appalling.
Wow you're saying what we all were thinking. Chef Jason annoyed me so bad in those videos. He didn't represent at all.
Great video I'm glad you did this series I'm not from Trinidad but I've always enjoyed the food. Very culturaly diverse It's like the United Nations of Food.
The Seafood Queen is the epitome of vivacious Trini spirit!! I loved her!! And that seafood platter looked HEAVENLY!Havent been down that side of Trinidad in years - this vid makes me want to make a roadtrip there so bad now! All the food looks sooo good, the sea and coastline as well - and everyone was so authentically friendly and welcoming - combination of Caribbean and country hospitality! As a Trini myself, it's amazing that Mark ( a foreigner) is giving me new appreciation for my culture, and now I am excited to go there myself! Awesome video! ( And also awesome Trinis 🙂🙂 - cah forget to big up meh people hehehe!😌😊 🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹)
that second to last sentence resonates with me profoundly. his vids have me missing home rel bad! i grew up in South so some of these places up North i've never been but def want to go to.
👍👍👍👍🇹🇹❤
He went to Jamaica, and his tour guide gave him a similar experience that he's recreating in Trinidad.
I wish he would visit Tobago as well because I'm curious about it.
@@spiritualcleanse7115 waiting to see if there are any Tobago vids myself!!
@@spiritualcleanse7115 I heard he went Tobago as well, can wait to see them as well
Even though am from St.Lucia I just love how this man captures the food culture no matter where he goes...there's no high-tech product crew...Mark you're the best because of your natural ability to capture the soul of why we love your videos...am sure you have been offered to do it with a bigger production crew but let me tell my bro Mark not all things are for sale....keep the good vibes flowing my bro from St.Lucia we love it
Yeah for Sure
Yep
The aerial shots done by the drone really gives, even born and bred Trinbagonians, a breathtaking view of our beaches and countryside from literally another level. Superb editing skills. Well done Mark! 💯
Completely agree! the footage is superb
I been planning to visit the Virgin Islands but Trinidad was not on my stop list. Thanks to this videos it is now.
We look forward to seeing you!
Amazing work Mark and what a great experience ❤ thank you so much for all the wonderful memories you have given to me. It was an honour to be a part of your Trinidad and Tobago 🇹🇹 experience
Love your content sir
The island and foods of Trinidad and Tobago looks really appetizing and the people are really friendly...Thanks for another great video Mark. I understand that their food takes on a special vibe at Christmas time.
Yes and it's sometines too much. Lol your belly will burst!!
Lol...the hazards of eating tasty food 🤔🤣😂
The whole menu of the country and music changes in December 🎄 🎄
This is true
Ohhh, don't get us started on Christmas!! Its a whole different type of mouthwatering food...pastelles, ponche de creme, mauby, gingerbeer, blackcake/fruitcake, peardrax, and the list goes onnnn.
Aunty Kays is like a gourmet restaurant in the countryside. Her presentation is on point. Loving this tour of T&T!!!
Mark eating pepper like it's candy. I'm just in awe.
I'm from the states and I say pepper, but after watching this series when I see pepper I think peppa.
You seeing that right. I swear Mark enjoyed the peppers more than the food. 🤣
Ikr him brave masa 😆😆😆😆
As a Trini 🇹🇹 to d bone i could do nothing but smile and feel proud during this entire series. If you have been following Mark for long you'll know when you see the Satisfaction of content in his facial expression and i see nothing but joy whilst he was eating every drop of our Trini sweetness. #visittrinidad well done
The way mark wife hugged this lady brought joy to my heart #trini❤ I love my country
Mark is giving a good advert for Trinidad. I didn't know Trinidad had such a variety of food. My mouth is watering. 😋
We do its just some foods are more expensive so if you wanna visit jist for the food, save up for that lol. The seafood is the most expensive.
Real food
Thank you for showing the true beauty of Trinidad's people, its food, and the friendliness of the Islands.
I do really love it, when locals from everywhere around the world, proudly present their traditional foods, and could vibe with our smiley face while eat their foods 😍🥲
🇹🇹❤️❤️❤️you can never run out of the different foods to try in Trinidad. My country is so diverse you can never go wrong. The culture & people is everything. Such a great vibe. Thanks for sharing Mark🙏🏽
Amazzing!!
OMGEEE..AUNTY KAY SEAFOOD!! COOK WITH LOVE....DAAANG!
I am so glad i watched your vidoes on West Indies. It is so difficult not to like the inhabitants of this country and island. They are so friendly, so hospitable , so so wonderful human beings.
Thank you! Your comment means a lot. Love from Trinidad & Tobago 🇹🇹❤
Thsnk you...we do appreciate your positive feedback🥰
❤🇹🇹
Carrabien seems to be food paradise!!!
I'm lovin each episode
❤🇹🇹
Very much so!🇯🇲
This was such a great tour! 👌 That Seafood Platter looked divine, loved the creativity of the Pineapple Chow and Raymond came through with that 'side of de road' Hog Plum Cocktail! 🇹🇹🔥 Great work also #VisitTrinidad and team for bringing this together!
This series of videos about Trinidad and Tobago food culture was amazing. I don't know why but this last vid made me tear up a bit. It was amazing seeing my country through your eyes Mark.
Yes, I shed a tear too. Just happy the world is seeing who we are. Our cuisine is so amazing 🇹🇹🇹🇹
Coming from south trinidad I must say toco people are some of the friendliness people you can meet. Always love visiting. The atmosphere is clean calming and sooooo relaxing 😌
A man from the island said to me "you can't be sad and uptight when it's sunny all the time." The people of Trinidad and Tobago seem that way.
Yes trinis 'live, love, laugh'. They barely take anything seriously other than politics. They enjoy life and are grateful for it. That's why I love my ppl
@@mega-mind3167 even politics we don't take seriously . we always making some type of joke on it.
It is truly amazing how Trinidad 🇹🇹 food is so versatile and encompasses so many different styles and flavors. This is only the 5th episode and I can't keep up with all the different varieties of food.
Aunty Kay"s quickness of Skills in the kitchen amazing.Her presentation mouth watering.
Again Mark Wiens is showing the world that Trinidad and Tobago is such a beautiful place. ❤❤
From Kenya to Trinidad via Mark Wiens 😂😂
My brother in Kenya glad to have u blessings from trinidad
Oh Mark you Zak and the tour guides enjoyed all of that fabulous food!!!! The lady who was manning all those skillets of Lobster and beans and the salsa with the cucumbers. Then the chef preparing the fish, ribs, plantains. Frying fish first on the cast iron grill then steaming it with banana leaf as the cover Oh man!!!! They have the most wonderful resteraunts and views of the Carribean.
Being from the Caribbean islands we all have the same foods , just different names. Those are fish fritters , in Puerto Rico we call them "Bacalaoitos" salt fish fritters & shape them flat and round ! Omg delicious, and the green sauce they have is basically our "sofrito" base to all our dishes ! Our ancestors are the same "Tainos "
Sofrito comes from West Africa not the “Tainos”. West Africans make green seasoning too. ❤ Saltfish fritters is from Portuguese influence.
And all green seasonings a taste different thays why when you visit caribbean islands the food taste different
Trinidad is "different" because of the large East Indian population and their impact on the food
Mark the series of videos that you have provided to us is amazing! I have a father that is from Trinidad, I have never been there but I am going in March. So these videos have now given my husband and I places to go to when we get there. Much love and appreciation!💕
I can't help but smile throughout the video. Mark's authentic reactions to eating the local dishes is so infectious. 🙂
Trini 🇹🇹 here. I must congratulate Mark on his excellent showcasing of Trinbago.
My grandmother used to boil the leaves of the hog plum tree and use it as an antiseptic for sore throat and it really worked. The actual fruit/plums are packed with vitamin C.
Interesting....I didn't know this neither did I ever hear about burying the fruit in the sand!
I love Mark! He is so cultured and brings out the best of the every flavor! Trinidad is so multicultural and he has managed to reach every taste. Awesome job! so proud to see the vids!!!!
Auntie Kay is a powerhouse, that huge seafood spread was just loaded with love and deliciousness. All the stops featured some delicious local snacks- pine chow, paimee, pawpaw ball, fresh baked pone😍 boil corn. The cutters by Auntie Hazel little parlor look real tasty too…at that point I would have been stuffed. But then Mark had a two heavy dishes after🤯(dat means I’m a lightweight at this eating thing😂)But Mark real get thru on this trip and deservedly so btw- let’s all thank him please for another fascinating showcase of our beautiful island 🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹
One simple word “AMAZING”. Am sold, thanks to you Mark, am really ready to visit T&T. Great series.
This series is BOSS! As a proud Trini I am discovering things about my country I did not know! Now I have to do more exploring. That hogplum..yum. Growing up we chewed the young hogplum leaves with salt for sore throat. It worked all the time!💯
I am definitely putting Trinidad on a list of countries to visit.
Check out his Jamaican series as well. So similar.
❤🇹🇹
We look forward to seeing you! 😉
Please do 🇹🇹🤗
Come we would welcome u
Mark you have outdone yourself again... Thank you for shining a light on how beautiful our country, its people and food is. Thank you also to those who sponsored and worked very hard to make his trip such a success 🙌 👍 ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Mark Wien's videos of Trinidad and Tobago just makes my day. I thoroughly enjoy watching him experience our culture, people and food. Everyone was so hospitable and friendly, that is the true Trini experience. #ThankYouMark #visitTrinidad
Another Caribbean food tour banger, great food/atmosphere and friendly hospitable ppl. 👍🏾👍🏾🇯🇲
Mark!!! I have to watch your videos on a full stomach because it’s pure salivation while watching the food prep and your sampling the food. The Seafood Queen delivered a feast fit for a king and YOU are the Foodie King.
You made this food come alive. You elevated snacks like Pineapple Chow, Pone, that we take for granted. Thoroughly enjoyed this video. I’ll be replaying this one.
Word on the street is when mark left Trinidad 🇹🇹 he had so many bottles of peppah 🌶 sauce the intense heat coming from his luggage got him in trouble with air port security 😳
Lol...😅🤣😅
This was the best tour of Trinidad and this is why I watch MARK WEINS 🥰🥰❤️❤️ everyone loves mark and his family, also the best parts be when they say oh be careful with the chillies and he just take it like a real one 🔥🔥🙌 I wish to visit Trinidad soon.🥳
This seafood plattern at Auntie Kay's is absolutely mind blowing. Such a pleasure to watch you eat it. No super fancy 5 star restaurant wherever could beat it. That's the key to success by cooking. Keep it simple. Quality and preparation are already obvious just by watching the video. Soon you will reach the 10 million subscriber Mark and you've earned it, you've always been the #1 food vlogger and you ever will be.
I have fell in love with the tropical nature of this country what a scenery 😍 and the hospitality, and kindness of the people who live in it is unbelievable! I wish to travel here one day 🤞
You'll never find this goodness flavour any where else in the worlddddddd , fresh everything, from the sea , from our backyards , the best place in the world to be
I sat and watched this with a stupid grin on my face the whole time! I was so happy and proud! Mark you eating pepper more than we trini's! Lawd! Love it! Love it!
Thank you Mark for capturing the original culture and food of Trinidad and Tobago it was not one sided.
My beautiful country ❤
Here from Florida
I left Trinidad and Tobago 36 years ago only been back one time in so long but still looks beautiful love it Mark !!
I will try to visit next year ❤❤
Thank you Mark for bring black folks cooking. That's what am talking about. Yesss!!!!! Every culture must have the chance to show their cooking style. I love all foods. .
Much love to Trinidad n Tabago 🇹🇹 from Mexico 🇲🇽 Saludos
Aside from the awesome showcasing of our food, your cinematography is gorgeous! Who knew Trinidad was so beautiful?! Its all about your viewpoint😍
Mark hits that pepper sauce harder than most Trinis!!!! Undefeated yes!
Mark is Thai; he can handle hot pepper
Mark, thank you so much for showcasing Toco! This is where our family is from. We felt so excited to see this video. Blessings! And a special shout out to Ling. May GOD continue to richly bless you all, in Jesus Name, amen.
Trinidad and Tobago.... I would have NEVER known about, or where they were, unless I saw this amazing video from mark. Thank YOU so much! I am wanting to figure out how a person gets there and what it takes! The food--and the WONDERFUL people who live there and cook their amazing recipes-- just have me in awe! Thank You, Mark....as always--- an INCREDIBLE experience!
Go to East Flatbush, Brooklyn if you wanna experience Trinidad for cheap or you don't have a passport
@@footz718 that’s a damn lie. That’s not out culture in Brooklyn!
@@TheGoogable are you dumb? So East Flatbush ain't a real place? Ali roti shop ain't around Bake & Things ain't around Brooklyn doesn't celebrate J'ouvert ?
@@footz718 Not like we do. Not our culture. 🇹🇹
@@TheGoogable my Grandmother move to East Flatbush, Brooklyn from Chaguanas and felt like she never left home the only complaint was Brooklyn couldn't compare to Trinidad around Christmas time. And the Yankees during the 1980 crack epidemic... You're right Brooklyn is not Trinidad but the way money is going now a day's you might as well settle for a bootleg Trinidad
Thumbs up to our Caribbean chefs
Another great video highlighting our warm hospitality, beautiful scenery and incredible cuisine ♥️🇹🇹 #visitTrinidad
You guys MUST be commended for setting this up. Absolutely incredible work! Hope to see more like this from #VistTrinidad
@@stefanjay6856 thank you! Stay tuned 😉🇹🇹
You've done such an excellent job showing a beautiful variety of food, drinks, snacks, locations and overall experiences. Please thank everyone involved in putting together this visit. They all did Trinbago proud. It showed the common fan favourites of Trinidad and some places that many people didn't know about. Love that even Trinis get to learn something too!
@@ZariDV thank you! Glad you enjoyed.
Who would want to leave that paradise?! Friendly people, great food, beautiful nature!!!
Only foreigners think we country is a paradise
I am from India so I know what you mean. But it’s still a paradise.
There is an answer to that actually, but that’s a topic for another day
@@Trini_Skunt-Troll lmao it took so much in me not to ruin this 🤣
@@cherisselambert3774 done know 😅
I am loving this whole trinidad 🇹🇹 series such a nice diverse culture all the food looks so delicious and the people are so friendly & WELCOMING
We are honoured and appreciate u for visiting and showcasing our multi cultural twin island of Trinidad and Tobago!! Love from from Trinidad Mark and we love u!!🇹🇹🇹🇹🥰❤❤
Now I want to visit Trinidad. Such beautiful people and amazing food. Thank you Mark
Looks like a beautifull country with wonderful people and delicious food :) Thanks Mark for another amazing video.
This is an excellent food representation of what resides and is offered in our country Trinidad. So enjoyable to see our food guys invited and accomodated Mark Wiens to showcase our style of how we Trinis do it..big up to all the locations and amazing cooks/chef /great artiste in this video for making our mouths water. Amazing video
You make great videos Mark, but this Trinidad and Tobago trip has been special.
Love your content!
I loved Trinidad and Tobago people, food and landscapes !!!
Mark, you have, hands down, showcased Trinidad BETTER than the Trinidad and Tobago Tourism Board!
VisitTrinidad, and all others involved in exposing Mark to the levels of cuisine and experiences there are to be had in T&T (Trinidad so far, but with the thoroughness of these vids, I can see Mark doing a serious dive into Tobago soon, too...), job well done! You are the G.O.A.T.s in this series, for exploring the island with him!🏆
Mark! Much respect from a Trini abroad, who's finally seeing my lovely island showcased in a way it deserves!🙏🏻💜
Thanks! We are the official tourism entity for Destination Trinidad (Tourism Trinidad).
@@VisitTrinidad Can you invite David Hoffman (davidsbeenhere) for a do-over, and have Zaak (and everyone else involved in this trip) host him, please?
@@VisitTrinidad
Hi there!
You guys stepped up, and had the deets that is needed for an in-the-know exploration of T&T!
Mark brought the know-how of documentation and presentation, and a ready audience, to take it to another level - Brace yourselves for what is about to happen to you guys, as new eyes want to have a closer look, and experience it for themselves!😉
Do you mean that you are associated with the governmental T&T tourism board, or are you a non-governmental private entity/enterprise?
@@shush9248 we are a state enterprise (Tourism Trinidad Limited) under the Ministry of Tourism, Culture and the Arts :)
@@VisitTrinidad
That is absolutely fantastic!
My apologies. This is not the T&T tourism board of "old", that I knew, but something better, it seems!
You guys tapped the right person to showcase the country! His experience at this type of documentation, and his viewership alone, was worth whatever you guys invested in, to make this happen. His reach is wide, and his views and assessment, trusted. You would do well to have him back for different Trinbagonian festivals and times of year. The quality of these vids are stellar!
Props again to Mark...💜🎉
Thank you Mark for making it possible for me to travel from the comfort of my bed! The satisfaction i get from the food, the people, the places is so fulfilling .Love n respect!
Wow . This channel has more Trinidad and Tobago videos than any other country tours. Oh well, most say God is a Trini, everything nice down dey.
And we ain't see Tobago yet
I gotta say out of all the food they eat today, the one with the amazing variety of spread pork, plantain, smoked ribs & fish are the most intriguing & water-drooling for me.
Marks channel is my safe-place. His videos has helped me so much through out the years. Thank you Mark for your content. Love from Sweden
I have traveled with Mark to many places on RUclips. He always makes me feel like were there when I could not be there in person. What a gift.
