Hi again Sonny and Ruzaina. My mother doesnt speak english so i am going to translate what she asked me to as this video is all the rave back home. I am living in Canada and my phone with the family group chat hasn't stopped buzzing since this video came out. My mother and her family and many others from Jaffna wants to thank you two personally for showing the Nallur Kovil festival and our food culture in such a beautiful and positive way. According to her even the NATIONAL channel of Sri lanka has never shown this. No one, even from our own country has ever shed a light on our festivities like this. We are really proud of this video. Jaffna has been through really dark times and we still suffer from severe ptsd. This video has given us so much love, light and positivity. Thank you Sir and Madame for showing Jaffna the love and kindness it truly deserves. ILLAŃKAYIL KATAVUL UNKALAI ĀSIRVATIPPAR!
Hey Subash, believe me every Sri Lankans dream destination is to visit the north and taste the exquisite dishes and see the unique land scapes. I really wish I knew about all this. I agree, state media should have done videos to educate the public.
So its true the previous sri lankan president was inline with WEF to reduce climate change and raise gas prices to reduce use and ban beef? And the people rebeled and kicked him out and reversed course.
@@pattibrown1809 sure but the most foods rozaina showed here are from minorities in srilanka .not the majority eat little bit differently by the way I'm Tamil you can come to Jaffna there we have authentic Tamil foods only .
As a Sri Lankan im really disappointed with your co host(The girl).she didnt narrowed you to best destinations.And also just samosa,sambal paan,koththu is not the traditional and best in our country.if you want to make a traditional videos yes..kandy is the best place in sri lanka..but in foods,all sri lankans know down south is the best.you just missed the delicious in sri lanka sir....🥲
We visited Sri Lanka after the attacks. And the country felt the safest of all countries we ever visited. Sri Lanka is sooooooo beautiful! I hope we return some time in the future.
I like the fact that you don't just travel around the world to eat but you also try to get the world to hear thier story. I really love your channel. From the food, to the culture awareness and the fun along the line. Thanks for this ❤️
Im Malaysian, extreme happiness from 27:40 to 32:00. My grandparents are from Jafna, we have visited the village once and to be honest we did leave our hearts behind. Sri Lanka is truly a land like no other.
Thank you so much guys 🇱🇰 we love you guys , I’m so glad you guys made a video about my beautiful mother Lanka ♥️♥️♥️, thank you once again 😊, forever grateful for this ❤
yeah i love him n his team for bringing the show to sri lanka, i hope this show will help promoting and pushing sri lankan tourism back to normal n even better
Forever grateful to Sonny and team BEFRS for doing this for Sri lanka!. 🙏🏽💕🇱🇰 So much work has gone into this prodution. What an amazing and beautiful series. Working and learning video proudction with Sonny and his team has been such fantastic experience. Thank you so much. Sri lanka is a melting pot of different cultures and the food is the by product of a happy marriage between all. Sonny and his team arrived just two weeks after severe protests in the country and things were moving very slow as the island was not yet fully opened. There is more to see and more to experience in terms of food and culture. Each direction of the country have their own unique culinary experince and how i wish Sonny and his team could have stayed longer.. but we did have some serious fuel issue at the time too. Now however everything is getting back to normal and we hope to see you all coming in to experiencing our beautiful and magical island with absolutely delicious cuisine. Our magical island with delicious food and warm smiles awaits your visit to Sri lanka. 🙏🏽🇱🇰💕
I definitely want to visit Sri Lanka someday soon!! It's a country full of goegeous nature, friendly, hospitable people and awesome food to enjoy! Hope everything gets back to normal there as soon as possible 🙏🏾❤️

Hello Ruzaina, I live in Tamil Nadu.....If only if we had a bridge a lot of Tamils & Malayalees would be spending our weekends in Srilanka.....A plane ride seems too expensive.... Hope you would visit Tamil nadu......I would love to visit S lanka as well.
Worked in Srilanka through the easter bombings and Covid, Srilankans are tough and resilient but also have a golden heart, the country is magical with amazing places to visit, left a piece of my heart in this beautiful country and hope to visit again someday in the future ❤️
This series brought me so much joy. I went to Sri Lanka for a month in the summer of 2018, volunteering for that duration as well as traveling and exploring. The culture, the food and just everything about Sri Lanka while I was there has been one of the most unforgettable and amazing experiences I've ever had. I'm happy that there is a Sri Lankan restaurant near me where I can experience a portion of the amazing food I had there and I hope to go back soon. I miss this country and everything about it so much
Im from Mexico and I’ve been to Sri Lanka twice. Beautiful country I’ve been almost everywhere there, love Nuwara eliya, Trincomalee and Kandy. I’ll have to go back again and visit Jaffna
90% of the comments are thanking Sonny and his team but are rarely mentioning Rozaina for thanking her to show Sonny your country and its cultural geographical beauty.
I used to work in Kuwait 2012 to 2015 and I have workmate from Sri Lanka. As a filipina whos never been exposed to other culture and food, my Sri Lankan workmate introduced me to Middle Eastern food even adjusted the spiciness of each dish for me. Shes so sweet and caring. From the curries and Sri Lankan food she cooked for me to try I so loved it!!! Watching this videos brings me back to the day. Now craving for Sri Lankan food 😉
I love how you always love, honor, and respect every country, and every religious background. You make everyone feel so comfortable around you. Thank you for doing what you do. You are amazing!
Being so accepting of others culture, and just the general respect Sonny shows to everybody is my favourite part of his character. Definitely one of my favourite shows to watch on RUclips, by far. Thank you for such amazing content.
big time fan of this channel. but never till now I've seen sonny and team is so affectionate to a country like this. trying their best for Sri Lanka to make a comeback. As a Sri Lankan I thank you from the bottom of my heart for that heavenly gesture! Also MAAAN... been in Sri Lanka from birth I've never experienced half of the foods shown in here. Thanks for opening up my eyes guys
@@groundzero5708 you guys eating Indian food..there’s no any tamil traditional food...please you are embarrassing yourself being racist and uneducated...
I watched the whole 1hr and 10 minutes video and it's awesome and great work. I am so happy to see social media influencers like you making these amazing videos to build up great messages about a country like Sri Lanka. I really enjoyed your work and as a person who lived in Sri Lanka for 27 yrs of my life, I learned new things about Sri Lanka which I never knew before thanks to your video. In the meantime, I have a small critique, Throughout the 1hr and 10-minute video, I didn't see any Sinhalese style cuisine, Ruzaina mentioned there specifically, Sinhalese cuisine is what makes Sri Lankan cuisine unique, But sadly I didn't see any. Although Sinhalese are the majority in the country, in South Asia, Sinhalese are a minority ethnic group and their food is rare and unique.
I have been to Sri Lanka before and I can tell you the food is awesome! The people are so nice. They smile always everytime you look at them. For me they are very happy people.

WOOOOOO best time ever when a new BEFRS is out, please bring Calvin along on one of these one day. It'd be hilarious to see him out of his comfort zone even more!!!
@@rapunzel129 you must visit srilanka. It's a beautiful place to be. The food, the Culture, the people are Awesome. But be careful with the local Muslims, they are nothing lesser than terrorist.
As a Malaysian Malay so proud to see this, Went to Sri Lanka in 2017 and it feels so war hearted to have met some long lost Malay families of the world 😘
I’m a Sri Lankan age 28 and have never seen Wedda’s doing these stuff in our local media. Heard they are doing their own things to come up with their life struggles but have never seen making those stuff until now. You did a great job bro. Hats off and thanks for sharing positive note about Sri Lanka.
Sri Lanka is a beautiful place. Some of my most nicest and generous friends are from Sri Lanka. They give without even thinking whether they are getting anything back or not. It didn’t matter if we were the same people or not they always greet you with a smile and the most humble welcoming gesture. Most generous with their food. They rather you eat and they go without. There is a special place in my heart for my Sri Lankan friends.
I stumbled upon this channel long ago. I loved it then and I still Iove it. Not only because of all of the education I absorb, but I am also born and raised in Minnesota. I can relate to Sonny’s down to earth, respectful, and humorous personality. It’s a Minnesotan thing. 😊
I’m always in awe of how far you’ve come! I remember when you only had 10k subscribers now it’s over 9 million!! I’ve been following you for a LONG time and I’m so proud and happy for you! I can’t wait to see what else you come up with and I will continue to follow you on this crazy cool adventure!!! ❤
Thank you very much for this spectacular video series. Kudos to Sonny and his team, y'all have done an amazing job. Sri Lanka is still struggling, we are still struggling to bounce back from what we've been through in past years. So, please visit Sri Lanka❤
this covers everything, its like a crash course of what is sri lanka. i really enjoyed the content and that funny moment when you teased her with pork curry and how respectfully without hurting the feelings of others who eat pork she avoided it, and the brain story again, really funny . absolutely stunning content
Thank you so much to this show team, Sonny, and especially Ruzaina. We know how hard you work for your country and how thankless it is. Facing really mean comments by pro racist people and facing political issues for speaking the truth. I follow you on Instagram too. Keep your head up. We support you and thank you for the immense service you have done for Sri lanka.
I agree, she was a fantastic representative and helped show everyone in a very positive light 🥺 she clearly inspires hope and a positive outlook on the country’s future and her efforts will hopefully bring in more tourism

Sonny thank you so much for sharing the world with me I'm learning more ,not just about food but also about respecting other cultures around the world.
I love this video for so many reasons! Just the fact that I went through the entire video without skipping is a testament to that. So much respect for the work you are doing Sonny!
As a Sri Lankan I have to say that you have only had a few variety of food, there are much more Sinhala food you can enjoy. Like Fish ambulthiyal, achcharu, batu moju and sweets like kaum, kokis, aluwa. Hope you enjoyed the tour. I was waiting for this video, Thank you for visiting Sri Lanka! ❤️
Atleast in this let them get the priority.. as in Srilanka Sinhalas are more dominant in other things, I mean already u guys have enough reach and quit popular.. so let the tamils enjoy this video and feel happy... Thank you
My goodness I had no idea, how sad the ppl from Sri Lanka had to go thru all of that jeez. I will definitely, definitely be praying for the ppl. Many blessings and prayers to u all 🙏🤗💖🙌💯❤🥰
Thank you so much for your kind words and prayers. 🙏 Sri Lanka has indeed faced many challenges, but the resilience of the people gives hope for a better future. Your support means a lot, and we're grateful for the blessings you send our way. 💖🙌 Blessings to you too! 🥰"
I thank you for these videos, you are a brave man. Make sure to not forget what you see and help where you can, but also, take a break. It can get hard to see the struggle face-to-face.
used to watch your vedios about differnt food cultures all over the world,,Uzbakistan,Mexican, Bahamas, Texas, and asian street foods, but never thought you will visit sri lanka with this crisis situation... so we are gratefull to you about this visiting.. and so much thankful about travel guide,, she doing best...
Srilanka is not a country .north and east are different there culture .look at how weak Sinhalese people culture .they don't show any authentic Sinhalese food .you Sinhalese stole everything from other culture and still have ego .lol now finally Tamils are again in control.this crisis is blessing of god of Tamils .finally we ca n build Tamil eelam again .proud Tamil 🐅🐅🐅
I appreciate that it's not JUST about food. They were having a great conversation about the political climate there. There's always something more than you're expecting with this show!! Greatly appreciate that ❤️
OK this series is right up there with the Iran series. I think having Ruzaina on it really made it pretty magical to watch. Her love for her country just seeps out of every pore of her body. It was beautiful to experience Sri Lanka through her eyes. Thanks for sharing another incredible series.
Thank you very much for this spectacular vedio series. Kudos to Sonny and his team y'all have done an amazing job. Sri Lanka is still struggling we are still struggling to bounce back from what we've been through past years. So, please visit Sri Lanka❤
Me and my friends always travel to Sri lanka. It is one of the best Asian countries in the world. Really recommend this island. Visit it once and you will want to visit it again and again. 😘
Thank you so much for coming to Sri Lanka and showing a glimpse of what we have in store for tourists. As she kept on saying this used to be a beautiful country and we've gone through so many things together, I lost my classmates and few other girls of my school due to the easter attack, then I lost so many teachers and nuns known to me at school due to the pandemic. with hopelessness we kept on moving and then due to corrupted government of the country and the barbaric regime we lost our 3 meals, continuous power cuts, no transport, no school, no sanitary pads. The nuns at the hostel asked us to use clothes as sanitary pads as the prices has risen and no more affordable. Amidst all these we still keep on moving hoping that it'll turn better, and the corruption will lessen than it is now.
@@groundzero5708 There is no difference with Racist Sinhalese and you. It is because of people like you that this country cannot prosper. Mistakes happened from both sides. Not just one. We have to move forward as one nation and not spread more hate. Besides just because you are trolling on the internet it is not going to make any differece.
Sunny thank you for your bold and exciting food journeys. You, Anthony Bourdain, and Andrew Zimmerman have or had no fear of the food unknown. Foodies all over the world are re-living your experiences and are being introduced to cultures they would never get to know with out your bold curiosity. Thank you for your mad-cap food adventures, and we really love all the people of the world and their exciting and exotic foods and spices. You sir, are the Marco Polo of the You Tube Food world and we are all living through your taste bud experiences. I love how you state the actual taste of each bite, salty, savory, sweet, it is as though I am tasting these wonderful foods along with you. The You Tubers of this world love you and appreciate your travel experiences. Your mission to experience the world through food and culture is changing the world one country, and one person at a time! Always be BOLD and fearless! Bon appetit!
Sonny deserves a salute. One of the best documentaries I’ve seen. I wish tis video reaches maximum population so that Srilanka can get back to where it belongs. Love from 🇮🇳
I have never ever been to Sri Lanka, your video made me to visit that beautiful island. And Ruzaina is so charming and full of information and positive about her country. Never knew that Sri Lanka had Sri lankan Malay people....
This has to be one of my favorite BEFRS episodes! The warmth of the people and the honesty in their situation❤️. And your co- host is so beautiful and graceful and has a great sense of humor! I fell in love with Sri Lanka and the people and their food tonight! Beautiful episode Sonny! Thank you!!! ✌️🙌❤️
Godbless you, our brothers and sisters in Sri Lanka. I hope everything turns out well as soon as possible. Much love from the Philippines. Would love to visit someday.
Love Sonny and his show. People of all cultures have so much to offer. So important to keep our hearts and minds open. I am of Polish heritage and would love to see Sonny go to Poland to experience Polish food, culture and it’s people. ❤
Sonny ,,,The Best Food Ever! You’re indeed USA best AMBASSADOR of GOODWILL!,,you always choose the best partner in food reviews.,,very friendly to the people..and the people are beautiful! You show many interesting parts of the countries you visited..you’re so knowledgeable…Washington,USA.
After watching this amazing video, I do feel like I could easily become vegan if I lived there. As Sonny said, here in the States, we tend to think of bread and salad... What a gorgeous country!
If u can prioritize on flour mainly its easy to live as a vegan, 2 main flour types are rice flour and bread flour (i dont know the exact terminology but when translate the native words thats basically the gist of it) and the different is rice flour based rotti, stringhoppers, hoppers, or any design will have less bloated effect (and also some spices are included in curries to have a better digestion) indian vegetarian cousine mix with sri lankan vegetarian cousine will easily make u full time vegetarian if ur for it
@@shohanranasinghe4403 Thank you so much for sharing! While not a vegan(my daughters are strict) I do see the importance of a variety of healthy foods and they don't have to be un-palletable to digest.
@@GD-xj3jd good to see ur daughters embracing being vegan, I’m not the one to come to conclusions but I think states even though there are vegan food places, vegans are being mocked to stop the trend because it might cause problems for butchers and slaughter houses and farms, I think earlier world didn’t have many options but now I think eggs can be made using a stimulant where the egg doesn’t hold any life and also through soya beans which protein vegetable can be made into vegan meats, cutlets etc.
The best thing about this show regardless of the relationships sonny builds is he highlights the situation in the country, maybe he should be sent to other places where we don’t get to hear what’s going on
Your videos never cease to be a source of humanity, warmth, respectful playfulness, fun, but most of all great food. Thank you Sonny and team and Ruzaina and the people of Sri Lanka. I am both smiling and sooo hungry after watching this!❤

This EP is so wholesome in many ways. Love the spirit of the Sri Lankan people.
As a Malaysian Malay so proud to see this, Went to Sri Lanka in 2017 and it feels so war hearted to have met some long lost Malay families of the world 😘
I’ve watch other food content creators but let me say I love this channel so much. He’s down to anything, he’s funny and down to earth.
I’m a Sri Lankan age 28 and have never seen Wedda’s doing these stuff in our local media. Heard they are doing their own things to come up with their life struggles but have never seen making those stuff until now. You did a great job bro. Hats off and thanks for sharing positive note about Sri Lanka.
Blessings for Sri Lanka... from South Africa 🇿🇦
Amazing video again Sonny! Sri Lanka is quickly becoming one of my 'must visit' places. I look forward to seeing more!
I like Aunty Doreen! So honest, sharing amazing recipes and she likes liquor
Sri Lanka is a beautiful place. Some of my most nicest and generous friends are from Sri Lanka. They give without even thinking whether they are getting anything back or not. It didn’t matter if we were the same people or not they always greet you with a smile and the most humble welcoming gesture. Most generous with their food. They rather you eat and they go without. There is a special place in my heart for my Sri Lankan friends.
❤❤❤
I stumbled upon this channel long ago. I loved it then and I still Iove it. Not only because of all of the education I absorb, but I am also born and raised in Minnesota. I can relate to Sonny’s down to earth, respectful, and humorous personality. It’s a Minnesotan thing. 😊
I’m always in awe of how far you’ve come! I remember when you only had 10k subscribers now it’s over 9 million!! I’ve been following you for a LONG time and I’m so proud and happy for you! I can’t wait to see what else you come up with and I will continue to follow you on this crazy cool adventure!!! ❤
How long dear?
Delicious food journey by Sonny and a sparkling smiles by Ruzaina. Keep it up The Best Ever Food Show!!

Thank you very much for this spectacular video series. Kudos to Sonny and his team, y'all have done an amazing job. Sri Lanka is still struggling, we are still struggling to bounce back from what we've been through in past years. So, please visit Sri Lanka❤
ruzaina is such a well-spoken lady with inspiring passion for her country. hoping the best for the people of sri lanka!
How perfect was the Auntie cooking and everyone else on that episode. The food looked amazing, what a beautiful family.
this covers everything, its like a crash course of what is sri lanka. i really enjoyed the content and that funny moment when you teased her with pork curry and how respectfully without hurting the feelings of others who eat pork she avoided it, and the brain story again, really funny . absolutely stunning content
Thank you so much to this show team, Sonny, and especially Ruzaina. We know how hard you work for your country and how thankless it is. Facing really mean comments by pro racist people and facing political issues for speaking the truth. I follow you on Instagram too. Keep your head up. We support you and thank you for the immense service you have done for Sri lanka.
I agree, she was a fantastic representative and helped show everyone in a very positive light 🥺 she clearly inspires hope and a positive outlook on the country’s future and her efforts will hopefully bring in more tourism

This series brought me so much joy. I went to Sri Lanka for a month in the summer of 2018, volunteering for that duration as well as traveling and exploring. The culture, the food and just everything about Sri Lanka while I was there has been one of the most unforgettable and amazing experiences I've ever had. I'm happy that there is a Sri Lankan restaurant near me where I can experience a portion of the amazing food I had there and I hope to go back soon. I miss this country and everything about it so much
Sri Lanka and their people are awesome, I want to go there someday and try all this food
Thank you
Welcome sri lanka 🖤
Sonny thank you so much for sharing the world with me I'm learning more ,not just about food but also about respecting other cultures around the world.
What beautiful and caring people...Auntie Doreen is a rare gem❤
This channel is so educational. Makes you have and show respect to the people and countries BEFRS visits. Mad respect Sonny and team
So far the greatest review of sri laka that've ever done.. thank you sunny and akka to make this and as a country boy,this is so much fun.. ❤👌
Thank you sonny for visiting Sri Lanka and expose our culture to the world, and huge thank you for Ruzaina for guiding sonny. ❤👏
Your camera team takes the most beautiful shots of the food and when you’re on the road traveling. The food on this episode look so good 🤤
Aunty Dorrine should publish her own cookbook or please she must start a cooking channel. I'm totally down to try everything she makes.
I have been watching you for quite a while now and it's amazing to see that you finally did a series about Sri Lanka. 😍❤️
I love this video for so many reasons! Just the fact that I went through the entire video without skipping is a testament to that. So much respect for the work you are doing Sonny!
As a Sri Lankan I have to say that you have only had a few variety of food, there are much more Sinhala food you can enjoy. Like Fish ambulthiyal, achcharu, batu moju and sweets like kaum, kokis, aluwa. Hope you enjoyed the tour. I was waiting for this video, Thank you for visiting Sri Lanka! ❤️
Definitely
Definitely There are many Sinhala Foods , I'm Not being Racist but this tour contains only Tamil and Muslim Foods
Atleast in this let them get the priority.. as in Srilanka Sinhalas are more dominant in other things, I mean already u guys have enough reach and quit popular.. so let the tamils enjoy this video and feel happy... Thank you
Thanks Sonny, team & Ruzaina. I fell so in lone with Sri Lanka. The ppl there deserves more. ❤
Been to Sri Lanka in 2019. Beautiful and humble people with very tasty food. People need to visit this country once in their lifetime.

I thank you for these videos, you are a brave man. Make sure to not forget what you see and help where you can, but also, take a break. It can get hard to see the struggle face-to-face.
32:35 I love Sunny's comparisons😂

Amazing people, Delicious Food 🥘, beautiful island. I should definitely visit this paradise island next year. Love from Morocco 🇲🇦
Good luck for Morocco in the world cup
I appreciate that it's not JUST about food. They were having a great conversation about the political climate there. There's always something more than you're expecting with this show!! Greatly appreciate that ❤️
I love how concerned he is about the cow brain possibly being pork. Hes always so sweet with his hosts
OK this series is right up there with the Iran series. I think having Ruzaina on it really made it pretty magical to watch. Her love for her country just seeps out of every pore of her body. It was beautiful to experience Sri Lanka through her eyes. Thanks for sharing another incredible series.
Rozaina introduced her country beautifully, loved her presence 💜
Thank you very much for this spectacular vedio series. Kudos to Sonny and his team y'all have done an amazing job. Sri Lanka is still struggling we are still struggling to bounce back from what we've been through past years. So, please visit Sri Lanka❤
Sri Lanka 🇱🇰 🌏

Me and my friends always travel to Sri lanka. It is one of the best Asian countries in the world. Really recommend this island. Visit it once and you will want to visit it again and again. 😘
Thank you
Plz when you come to srilanka plz come to north .northern people are different .proud Tamil .Tamil eelam 🐅🐅
so true
@@groundzero5708nonetheless, we are all Sri Lankan.
I'm singaporean malay. And I was today years old that I found that there's Sri Lankan Malays. Always a pleasure watching sonny
Same, Malay Malaysian here. I was shocked the moment she mentioned dodol like whaaaaaaaaaaaat?
Thank you for visiting sri lanka in a time of a such a big crisis and making a hour long documentary man salute!🫡 ❤
This is hands down the best show food review show ever! Lol I'm serious! it really is amazing 👏🏾!
As a Sri lankan i am very thankful for you and your team for visiting Sri lanka at this time of need. Please visit us again.
I hope Sri Lanka recovers soon. Turists need to visit this place, the food looks amazing!
the best travel vlog of Sri Lanka i ever watched
My neighbor is Sri Lankan and I can honestly say Sri Lankan curry is the best kind of curry in the world.
It's so amazing to see when someone respects others culture....god bless you Sonny and the whole team for showing sri lankan food and culture
Thank you so much for coming to Sri Lanka and showing a glimpse of what we have in store for tourists.
As she kept on saying this used to be a beautiful country and we've gone through so many things together, I lost my classmates and few other girls of my school due to the easter attack, then I lost so many teachers and nuns known to me at school due to the pandemic. with hopelessness we kept on moving and then due to corrupted government of the country and the barbaric regime we lost our 3 meals, continuous power cuts, no transport, no school, no sanitary pads. The nuns at the hostel asked us to use clothes as sanitary pads as the prices has risen and no more affordable. Amidst all these we still keep on moving hoping that it'll turn better, and the corruption will lessen than it is now.
So sad that the series has ended. Please visit Sri lanka again! There is more to explore. 🇱🇰🇱🇰🇱🇰🇱🇰🇱🇰🇱🇰🇱🇰🇱🇰🇱🇰🇱🇰❤️
Yes you Sinhalese are finally waking up .srilankan is not a country Tamil eelam is
@@groundzero5708 There is no difference with Racist Sinhalese and you. It is because of people like you that this country cannot prosper. Mistakes happened from both sides. Not just one. We have to move forward as one nation and not spread more hate. Besides just because you are trolling on the internet it is not going to make any differece.
@@groundzero5708 oh god you under every comment being racist..shame on you
Sunny thank you for your bold and exciting food journeys. You, Anthony Bourdain, and Andrew Zimmerman have or had no fear of the food unknown. Foodies all over the world are re-living your experiences and are being introduced to cultures they would never get to know with out your bold curiosity. Thank you for your mad-cap food adventures, and we really love all the people of the world and their exciting and exotic foods and spices. You sir, are the Marco Polo of the You Tube Food world and we are all living through your taste bud experiences. I love how you state the actual taste of each bite, salty, savory, sweet, it is as though I am tasting these wonderful foods along with you. The You Tubers of this world love you and appreciate your travel experiences. Your mission to experience the world through food and culture is changing the world one country, and one person at a time! Always be BOLD and fearless! Bon appetit!
Sonny deserves a salute. One of the best documentaries I’ve seen. I wish tis video reaches maximum population so that Srilanka can get back to where it belongs. Love from 🇮🇳
I have never ever been to Sri Lanka, your video made me to visit that beautiful island.
And Ruzaina is so charming and full of information and positive about her country. Never knew that Sri Lanka had Sri lankan Malay people....
This is one of your best episodes man! Hats off to you for promoting these people in rough times.
I love this co host!! The part about the cow brain made me laugh 😭
This has to be one of my favorite BEFRS episodes! The warmth of the people and the honesty in their situation❤️. And your co- host is so beautiful and graceful and has a great sense of humor! I fell in love with Sri Lanka and the people and their food tonight! Beautiful episode Sonny! Thank you!!! ✌️🙌❤️
the editor did a great job. he put perfect music on perfect culture.
One of the best Sri Lankan Tamil food vlogs on RUclips ! Thanks for creating a genuine video ❤
Godbless you, our brothers and sisters in Sri Lanka. I hope everything turns out well as soon as possible. Much love from the Philippines. Would love to visit someday.
Love from SL
Love Sonny and his show. People of all cultures have so much to offer. So important to keep our hearts and minds open.
I am of Polish heritage and would love to see Sonny go to Poland to experience Polish food, culture and it’s people. ❤
Just found this channel & it’s incredible!! Thank you for making this available to learn & enjoy.
Sonny ,,,The Best Food Ever! You’re indeed USA best AMBASSADOR of GOODWILL!,,you always choose the best partner in food reviews.,,very friendly to the people..and the people are beautiful! You show many interesting parts of the countries you visited..you’re so knowledgeable…Washington,USA.
After watching this amazing video, I do feel like I could easily become vegan if I lived there. As Sonny said, here in the States, we tend to think of bread and salad... What a gorgeous country!
If u can prioritize on flour mainly its easy to live as a vegan, 2 main flour types are rice flour and bread flour (i dont know the exact terminology but when translate the native words thats basically the gist of it) and the different is rice flour based rotti, stringhoppers, hoppers, or any design will have less bloated effect (and also some spices are included in curries to have a better digestion) indian vegetarian cousine mix with sri lankan vegetarian cousine will easily make u full time vegetarian if ur for it
@@shohanranasinghe4403 Thank you so much for sharing! While not a vegan(my daughters are strict) I do see the importance of a variety of healthy foods and they don't have to be un-palletable to digest.
@@GD-xj3jd good to see ur daughters embracing being vegan, I’m not the one to come to conclusions but I think states even though there are vegan food places, vegans are being mocked to stop the trend because it might cause problems for butchers and slaughter houses and farms, I think earlier world didn’t have many options but now I think eggs can be made using a stimulant where the egg doesn’t hold any life and also through soya beans which protein vegetable can be made into vegan meats, cutlets etc.
Good Job! Great insight into this troubled state. So glad you got this into our minds. My heart goes out to these lovely people.
The best thing about this show regardless of the relationships sonny builds is he highlights the situation in the country, maybe he should be sent to other places where we don’t get to hear what’s going on
Your videos never cease to be a source of humanity, warmth, respectful playfulness, fun, but most of all great food. Thank you Sonny and team and Ruzaina and the people of Sri Lanka. I am both smiling and sooo hungry after watching this!❤
