Love all my Iraqi brother and sisters no matter what you believe in .. Muslims, Jews, Christians, Zaroastrians, Sabia, Bahai and Atheist We are all IRAQI ❤🇮🇶❤🇮🇶❤
Iraqi food is one of THE most delicious food in that area. It's not easy to make as you can see.. Everything was cooked slowly and took a lot of efforts and time to make and to present it like that... Soooo good... Great video Mark...
Mark, Had lunch at this place today best your video. I am an American with Iraqi wife born in Israel. Her family cooks most of the food you showed us. They loved it. The owner remembered you and spent about 30 minutes at our table laughing with us and taking history of our families and sharing a great meal. This small spot is a gem and $100 US for so much. Lots of love went into these dishes that are time consuming to make. He starts work at 4 AM and opens at noon. Food is fresh and tastes are amazing. We wil reurn on another trip. Thanks for the excellent videos are Israel. The food here, whether traditional or fusion, it off the hook. Be well! Eat well!
A greeting of love to the Jews of Iraq in various parts of the world. I wish you a return to the beloved homeland, your brother Chaldean from Babylon🖤🇮🇶
Thanks Mark. You're just one of those few influencers able to remove boundaries and branding to each nation, culture and race. Kudos. Big salute from Philippines.
Too stressful life.. office and work-- to get peace and calm my mind every night I watch Mark videos...it gives me peace...thank you so much ..Mark you are Amazing
That meal from family restaurant was really comforting style. By just watching it, you know you wanna eat it. The kabob made me mouth watering already. I'm surprised Mark could stay awake after such comfort meal.
Iraqi Jews come back home you’re more than welcome! We in Iraq all live peacefully, Kurds, Arabs, Assyrians no matter Christian, Muslim, Jewish, Yezidi or Zoroastrian at the end of the day we are all Iraqi and children of Mesopotamia. All love from a Kurdish brother.
My family are Iraqi jews who fled in the 50’s. I really want to visit. I have always felt like Baghdad is a part of me. I have this great feeling of sadness when I think about it it’s like I’m nostalgic but I’ve never been. My family raised me to be proud of Babylonian heritage and I want to visit to put a place and land to my culture. We were there for 2500 years indigenous to Babylon and the land it is in my heart, soul and blood. One day I will visit and understand why my family was so proud to call themselves Iraqi and be from that beautiful land and culture. P.s. the best Iraqi Jewish dish is a Shabbat tibeet with that crunchy rice and a little Amba oof so delicious.

I'm really happy that you enjoyed, Mark. I've been to Israel, and it was the best place I'd ever been to in my whole life. I'd gone with a Christian tour 'Christ For All Nations' and it was perfection!
Mark thanks SO much!!!! I live in Israel and have been to Ramla, but it's always been for business so I would not have known Naji existed if it wasn't for you!! We are SO going to check it out - kubbeh is one of my favorite foods on the planet; particularly kubbeh maroq edom (the beet one!) though that bamya khatan (small okra) looks incredible too! A big thumbs up to the way you do ALL your episodes and really capture the heart of the people and cultures!
Hey Mark, you are totally living the life of my dreams! All the best to you and your family. Please keep up the fantastic travel and food videos....they keep me inspired and motivated to travel and enjoy the world's cuisines ❤️
This is how Iraqi do their hospitality:) We do it big :) Our food is very delicious. If you are interested to know any recipe on the Mark's menu of Iraqi food, Burghel dumplings( Kubba Hameth), white beans stew, potato stew, kabab and many more mouth watering recipes, please visit my channel for the details. Thank you
I'm so interested! I have been searching for these kibbeh type dumplings in the beet sauce and the yellow ones for almost ten years. This is the first time I am really seeing them, I had an woman from Iraq make them for me with some gorgeous fluffy rice - I am definitely visiting your channel. I hope it's in english :-)
Holly H Yes they are all in English and Arabic. The burghul dumpling can be cooked with different vegetables or just with beets so they become red ! Welcome to my channel and Please feel free to ask me anything :)
Is it just jewish iraqis that make kuba inside of beetroof stew? I'm kurdish, but this is the first time I've seen kuba inside of beetroot or okra stew. we have okra stew, but we don't put the kuba inside. Also. why is there meatballs in the fasolia? its usually either chunks of meat or just fasolia. never seen meatballs.
Roz Sa Hi there, I am Chaldean/ Assyrian and we do cook Kubba with beets and other vegetables but not okra :). For the white bean I cook it with chunk meat with bone preferably but cooking stew meat require a lot of time so cooking it with meatballs is a quick method. I do it with potato curry for quick meal :).
We have lovely tomato based okra stew like we do it with meat or on its own, but never with kuba inside of it. The Kubba with beetroot is definitely a massive surprise. Mum gave a similar reasoning regarding the meatballs in the bean stew. She said that it could be when they moved, good quality meat chunks on the bone or otherwise might have been difficult to get / expensive. So meatballs are a cheaper alternative and yet still filling. It just doesn't look quite right though. The kuba with pumpkin / butternut squad chunks is also something I've not seen, but its a good alternative to potatoes.
I have found your channel recently and I have been binge watching your videos. You and Ying seem to be amazing people....and of course your baby is absolutely adorable!

I love the way you make your impression .Iraqi food is agreat and uniqe and you should visit Iraq because Its alittle different and more types than you eat.
The Iraqi Jewish food was a surprise. Very unique. I could almost smell the aromas and taste the fullness of each morsel. Definitely something I am craving. Great find Mark!

Hi, Mark you are such a great ambassador for food from both side. I really like you NYC episode. In fact I had Jewish food just like that , walking over the Manhattan bridge going towards Brooklyn downtown, when September 11 incident happen. It was definitely a strange feeling that day.😊
The Jews of Iraq are an essential part of the country. Tens of years have never been forgotten by their ancestral homeland. Successive governments were cruel to Iraqi Jews
i am iranian arab from khouzistan province i just want to mention that this dish's are so similar to our dish's..the bamie stew the meat ball stew and borghol coba soup...and i love our food...and i love this similarity which shows how our culture is close to eachother.love khouzistan.

Mark Wiens vocabulary:
*that's interesting - not particularly pleasant meal, overwhelming, or ingredients are too controversial;
*mmm (regular with no enthusiasm) - mediocre, nothing special;
*mmm (with slight entusiasm) - decent meal, above the average;
*mmm-oh-ya - good, pleasant meal;
*turns head slightly to the right and closes eyes for a moment - particularly great meal, 5/5
lol i was thinking about the same thing for quite a while

It's second nature to be cooking :)
Am very glad that you enjoyed our Iraqi delicious 😋 food 🥘
As I'm watching Mark, my phone automatically comes closer to my mouth😂
We welcome you to Iraq 🇮🇶 some day ❤️❤️❤️
shookran habibty inshalla peace
Who welcome to Iraq
I'm really happy that you enjoyed, Mark. I've been to Israel, and it was the best place I'd ever been to in my whole life. I'd gone with a Christian tour 'Christ For All Nations' and it was perfection!
Love your video I’m from iraq 🙃 I’m happy that you try iraqi food
Mark thanks SO much!!!! I live in Israel and have been to Ramla, but it's always been for business so I would not have known Naji existed if it wasn't for you!! We are SO going to check it out - kubbeh is one of my favorite foods on the planet; particularly kubbeh maroq edom (the beet one!) though that bamya khatan (small okra) looks incredible too! A big thumbs up to the way you do ALL your episodes and really capture the heart of the people and cultures!
I hope , I wish middle eastern will be United. I love middle eastern culture and food😍❤
Where you from

Ahmad A Ali I am an Iraqi Jew ❤️
lisa surany love u 🇮🇶🇮🇶 we r one we r iraq
I see that some Jewish iraqi food is unique, like Kubeh. Did not see it in Iraqi restaurants in Europe.
هو في العراق؟؟؟ ولا راح لمحل يبيع اكل عراقي؟
You guys eat kubeh soup as well?
Hey Mark, you are totally living the life of my dreams! All the best to you and your family. Please keep up the fantastic travel and food videos....they keep me inspired and motivated to travel and enjoy the world's cuisines ❤️
This is how Iraqi do their hospitality:) We do it big :) Our food is very delicious. If you are interested to know any recipe on the Mark's menu of Iraqi food, Burghel dumplings( Kubba Hameth), white beans stew, potato stew, kabab and many more mouth watering recipes, please visit my channel for the details. Thank you
I'm so interested! I have been searching for these kibbeh type dumplings in the beet sauce and the yellow ones for almost ten years. This is the first time I am really seeing them, I had an woman from Iraq make them for me with some gorgeous fluffy rice - I am definitely visiting your channel. I hope it's in english :-)
Holly H Yes they are all in English and Arabic. The burghul dumpling can be cooked with different vegetables or just with beets so they become red ! Welcome to my channel and Please feel free to ask me anything :)
Is it just jewish iraqis that make kuba inside of beetroof stew? I'm kurdish, but this is the first time I've seen kuba inside of beetroot or okra stew. we have okra stew, but we don't put the kuba inside. Also. why is there meatballs in the fasolia? its usually either chunks of meat or just fasolia. never seen meatballs.
Roz Sa Hi there, I am Chaldean/ Assyrian and we do cook Kubba with beets and other vegetables but not okra :). For the white bean I cook it with chunk meat with bone preferably but cooking stew meat require a lot of time so cooking it with meatballs is a quick method. I do it with potato curry for quick meal :).
We have lovely tomato based okra stew like we do it with meat or on its own, but never with kuba inside of it. The Kubba with beetroot is definitely a massive surprise. Mum gave a similar reasoning regarding the meatballs in the bean stew. She said that it could be when they moved, good quality meat chunks on the bone or otherwise might have been difficult to get / expensive. So meatballs are a cheaper alternative and yet still filling. It just doesn't look quite right though. The kuba with pumpkin / butternut squad chunks is also something I've not seen, but its a good alternative to potatoes.
I have found your channel recently and I have been binge watching your videos. You and Ying seem to be amazing people....and of course your baby is absolutely adorable!
Love you guys
From Iraq 🇮🇶

They should go back to Iraq then. Don't support the apartheid regime of Israel. do like such invasion to happen to your country? So why in first place he show us occupier and oppressor luxury life over the miserable life of Palestinians in refugee camps..did he go to Palestinians camps Lebanon to see what the owners of the houses in Ramla and in Haifa, In Jaffa are going? Please do go there and then he might feel ashamed!

I love the way you make your impression .Iraqi food is agreat and uniqe and you should visit Iraq because Its alittle different and more types than you eat.
The Iraqi Jewish food was a surprise. Very unique. I could almost smell the aromas and taste the fullness of each morsel. Definitely something I am craving. Great find Mark!
Je S sure everything from iraq is beautifull
this is south Asian cuisine as well with a lot of curry .. we also made potato meat , bean and potato etc with alot of curry

The best food in the world in the Middle East and the best food in the Middle East in Iraq
We will return to our country Iraq after returning to the good people and will return with us Jews and Christians and we will all celebrate the day of the return of Iraq and the people of Iraq to their ancient country of civilization and science
@@L.A51 I hope so

I get so hungry watching Mark! The food looks beyond AMAZING!
Best wish’s for them from Iraq❤️❤️❤️
Iraqi food is the best
Thank you for the video!
That's my childhood!!!
Priceless!!!
The food in Israel is amazing. Every-time I go visit my family back there, I like to go out and enjoy this type of food. Can't find this in the U.S.
Iraqi people are SO nice and humble... I wish I could visit those places someday
اجمل واطيب اكل في العالم الاكل العراقي ....made me feel hungry and it is later hour now
This is traditional iraqi food , amazing food
Hi, Mark you are such a great ambassador for food from both side. I really like you NYC episode. In fact I had Jewish food just like that , walking over the Manhattan bridge going towards Brooklyn downtown, when September 11 incident happen. It was definitely a strange feeling that day.😊
The Jews of Iraq are an essential part of the country. Tens of years have never been forgotten by their ancestral homeland. Successive governments were cruel to Iraqi Jews
jews have lived in the land of iraq since the Babylonian exile
I'm an Iraqi guy who lives overseas and I salute the Iraqi Naji Restaurant for their authentic Iraqi delicious food
i am iranian arab from khouzistan province i just want to mention that this dish's are so similar to our dish's..the bamie stew the meat ball stew and borghol coba soup...and i love our food...and i love this similarity which shows how our culture is close to eachother.love khouzistan.
That's because eastern khuzestan is majority arab, the ahwazi arabs speak the same dialect as the basrawis or Southern iraqis.
Iraqi food is amazing

It is Iraqi food in general
But Iraqi Jews prefer these dishes and cook them a little differently
You are right sir.

I’s so great that the jewish Iraqi people have kept and passed on the Iraqi food culture, we have so many great dishes but iraqi food is like a hidden gem not to many know of it
