I am from Morocco, I am so proud to be African. I have tears in my eyes thinking about the African people, my people who are just the best. I lived too long in America and I feel it’s time to come back to mama Africa. The Ivorians are one of the nicest people in Africa, I love you Ivory Coast and thank you so much for hosting this tournament and hosting all your African brothers and sisters in your very beautiful country. Best luck to you, much love
@@amine4412 I don’t think you know much about Africa. We have different culture, different food, different languages, different clothes, different skin color, and more. Also, Morocco has been a center of the slave route of Black Africans. Respectfully with love too, but we are not brothers.
@@zzzzzzzzzz9370 first of all, most Moroccans are not white, second, you focus so much on skin color and customs but even within your own country , there are different tribes with different customs, different religion . If you go to any family brothers have different looks and different personalities, but that doesn’t make them not brothers . God created us all different but he gave us on father and one mother. It is mentality like you that differentiate and separates between brothers and it is sad to see. Maybe we have different colour tone but I can guarantee you that we both have the same organs inside, a heart left, and we both have to eat and drink to survive. You don’t know the positive History Morocco and Ivory Coast shares and if you are someone that is racist , I know many Ivorians who are genuinely feeling we are brothers and that is the normal between majority of Ivorians and majority of Moroccans. Good luck
I live in Massachusetts, where there is a large population of Ivoirian immigrants. They are some of the kindest, hardest working, sincere people I've ever met. And I'm proud to call some of them my best friends.
Any Liberian who lived in Cote D'Ivoire knows the kukujumuku that's going on in this video😂. We had fun with the food and culture in this sweet country
The seafood boil is basically Gumbo like they cook in Louisiana. It is always humbling to see how many of the ingredients or techniques followed the ancestors through the Middle Passage to the Americas. Thank you Mama Africa. We didn't forget!
While they seem similar with the main ingredients, the starting point is very different as Louisiana gumbo starts with a roux, where as is Ivory Coast, we don't use a roux at all. I love making some Louisiana gumbo, though. Oh, we also don't use sausage in the cote d'ivoire gombo, and Louisiana do not use dried okra in theirs. Potash is also used in cote d'ivoire to ensure the sliminess of the okra is accentuated, whereas Louisiana uses gumbo file.
It was a great pleasure organizing this trip for Mark and I can't wait for you all to see what's in store! Best trip EVER! 🤗Vive la Côte d’Ivoire I meant to say ‘you dip it in the milk’ 🥛… I said ‘water’ instead 😂 maybe I was thirsty 😃 4:38 🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮
Merci à vous et à Mark d'avoir rendu ça possible ! Ça fait quelques années que je ne suis pas retourné au pays, donc ça m'a fait plaisir de pouvoir vivre cette aventure culinaire à travers la caméra de Mark. 🔥🔥🔥
J'adore les Ivoiriens !!!!!!! Mon peuple préféré en Afrique avec les Sénégalais et les Maliens !!! Gros bisous d'Algérie ! I absolutely love people from Ivory Coast, they are so fun and friendly!
Nobody asked you which country you prefer in Africa… Go solve your internal problems in Algeria and your co Maghrébins Morocco… Don’t bring your nonsense divide mentality into our space
Ivory Coast, or Cote D´Ivore as you prefere! It is actually a great country and has been home for many Africans, mostly west Africans. I am originally from Angola, but hopefully I had been fortunate to have visited Abidjan ( Cocody, Treichville, and Conan Bedie flayover or bridge, and Sao Pedro province. This footage is very nice, it is promoting our beautiful continent, culture and behaviors. Well done the ladies at the kitchen and the owner of this restaurant. A big thumb up to Sacko, Maxmillian...
Ikr! Same for me in gh but then we share a border and some ethnic groups so not super shocking. What they call klaaklo we call kaakro/akraakro. The fried cassava balls w coconut they call bulbul is agbɛlɛ kaklo or ayigbé tennis balls. Have seen the fried dough but never had it. The milk w corn reminds me of brukina. Tons of similarities and yet they've got a ton of unique twists.
@MarkWiens Please do Mark. I am a Nigerian living in United States, and I am addicted to your videos, especially when I am set to eat. Please visit Nigeria. Thank you for your dedication.
I have followed your videos for the past 5 years. This trip to Abidjan was a true pleasure to watch. This took me back to my child hood I left Abidjan with my grandma in 2001 at 14 and this took me back to being a kid and seeing all the things I grew up eating and enjoying. Thank you!!
Mark Wiens, I have been watching your videos for the past 3 years and even asked you to come to Cote d'ivoire but never got a response. I wanted to organize a trip with you, but I am so glad that you finally made it. My country is awesome and I just got back from taking my oldest daughter there.
I love you, Mark! You’re the most humble and genuine person that I’ve seen on RUclips! Thanks for taking us around the world with you. Watching your videos of Africa makes me miss and yearn for home.
Woooooow, thank you Mark for introducing to us the wonderful people of Cote d' l'viore. They go out of their way to cook many faveolus and good quality delicious foods turned into buffets. The food preparations, cooking and presentations are amazing. We send them lots of love to all😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
One of the many reasons I love love love our West African dishes, is that our stews have an assortment of meats and seafood all in one dish. 😋😘🤤🤤🤤🇸🇱🇸🇱🇸🇱
I love watching your videos Mark! This was so eye opening, as an Southern African American I see similarities in their food and how my grandmother made onions and tomatoes and peppers with almost every dish, especially greens and grilled meats! WOW! Love your channel, keep blessing us with your travels! 💞🙏🏾🌞
This is my country , my city , the place I grow up , the lady who used sell the bassi omg that’s my childhood . Thank you Mark for this beautiful video 😍😍
I’m Sierra Leonian and our food is very similar, but I use a spoon because I like getting more stew with each bite. I wish you could’ve seen the process of making the cassava fufu (what you ate with the okra); it’s very labor intensive. Love your videos … you’re awesome.
I have being to all the west African countries. And I fell in love with Ivory Coast 🇨🇮 the people are friendly. I love their foods everything comes freshly prepared. I love their so many beaches full of beautiful people and activities. It’s safe too to go around asks for directions.
If you been to all the west Africa countries then you would know that Abidjan is totally different, with all the sky scrapers and high rise apartment buildings and huge tollways with traffic and red taxi cabs everywhere and the people are very French And if you don’t speak French they will turn their nose up at you
Honestly Mark and Sonny need to be given some kind of United Nations Goodwill award or something! They've taught the world alot more about each other through food than any other political ambassador!
I’m a vegan but I do enjoy watching different global food cultures, and Mark is fearless when it times to embracing the experiences of trying different foods from his travels!
I remember eating the baguette with meat when I visited Abidjan as a kid. So tasty! I have enjoyed many of your travels. This is my favorite so far! Thanks Mark!

Thank you so much for showing the world the great Ivorian Foods. French cuisine is world renown but Ivorian cuisine is tastier, more food in your plate and very healthy. You are slender so you can eat it all. I envy you. GOD BLESS YOU.
Love this, I'm a librarian, and share common border with cote D'Ivoire and so the same food as well.. This takes me back to my own country... Hope we can plan something for Liberia in the future as well.. I have been following you since 2017..
Like how you embrace for new cultures passionately and respect their way and people. It's really a damn interesting video to watch. BTW, congratulation for 10m, Mark! You deserve it!
I miss my country, I was born and raised in Abidjan ...we leaved in marcory 😍!!!! I miss all, the food, the people of Abidjan are so kind and joyful, thank you for sharing with us all the beautiful people you met, what a wonderful, inspiring job you have, be all blessed and safe 😇🙏😋
The red unrefined palm oil looks so beautiful. Not like the refined version of it that is now available around the world. They have been using it for thousands of years. What an amazing food culture.
I am a WIENS fanatic because he is very humble and above all positive. he loves everyone without distinction of race and that is why he immediately blends in with all the tribes he arrives in. I loved your entire stay in the Ivory Coast and especially with us, the Senoufo. Now you are also a senoufo with your whole family. Thank you so much. WIENS. ...IVOIRIAN SENOUFO YEO...
Finally!!! Mark came to Ivory Coast. 🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮I wish I were there to show him around. Would have loved for him to try Foutou, Foufou, Sauce Arachide etc etc. But next time...
And now Mark is finally back in Africa but this time is the FIRST time visiting Côte D'Ivoire or Ivory Coast! 🇨🇮 Edit: also Mark is wearing Côte D'Ivoire football jersey just like he did on Senegal episode
I am a kenyan working and living in dubai..... I have been to tanzania ethopia,rwanda and uganda and was planning to visit south africa towards the end of the year but a after watching this 🇨🇮 series in am conflict. The food is insane.
Good day to all! Senegalese livng in the USA. I had a similar dish for lunch yesterday that we call soupkandja (okra soup with seafood. about the same) that we eat with white rice. I ate the stew with a spoon. African for life! No matter where we live :) So proud of Africans. So proud of all citizens of the world representing their culture wherever they are. Conserve and open up. Then blend. That's how we love to live. We eat all types of food and respect all traditions and cultures. Respect people. Be openminded. Period. Love and live! Peace! Happiness at its finest.
@@cocorita5 I ate Mexican food because I can’t got Ivorian food in America. And I can tell you there is no difference. Spanish food in general. Travel there to taste it before talking.
Africans are happy people even when we don't have it all... We appreciate the togetherness and unity that binds I'm a Ghanaian and really appreciate the foods in Ivory Coast I must say we have a lot in common
Mark ..congrats this was a treat to see the cuisine of the Cote d ivoire and a taste of its culture .The Caribbean has some similarities which make sense given the common heritage of the majority of people in the Caribbean and West Africa .Nice and lovely people .

Thank you so much for showing the world the great Ivorian Foods. French cuisine is world renown but Ivorian cuisine is tastier, more food in your plate and very healthy. You are slender so you can eat it all. I envy you. GOD BLESS YOU.
7:39 you couldn’t convince me that’s not the original recipe for Gumbo. And their love for Okra. These are our people 💜
I felt the same. Instantly when I saw this, I felt a sense of home. Louisiana, Iowan, Chicago, this is all the same.
Love this,
I'm a librarian, and share common border with cote D'Ivoire and so the same food as well..
This takes me back to my own country...
Hope we can plan something for Liberia in the future as well..
I have been following you since 2017..
Liberian women are fantastic cooks
your my hero, changing the world for the better through food and travel, what an impact your vlogs have made
I love how mark travels to different places he’s willing to try everything also the people gravitate to him because he has such a great spirit 💙
YES...IN THE END...BIRDS OF THE SAME FEATHERS FLOCK TOGETHER?! ALL MERCILESS BARBARIANS COME AS ONE?!
Like how you embrace for new cultures passionately and respect their way and people. It's really a damn interesting video to watch. BTW, congratulation for 10m, Mark! You deserve it!
Sharing is caring she says. Hospitality in Abidjan is an adventure filled with Luxury.

wow i was born and raise in abidjan now im living in Taipei. Thank Mark for bringing me all my memories
Oh wow! So this maybe where the Southern USA soulfood tradition of eating buttermilk and cornbread originated.🥰
🔥🔥🔥🔥 🍱 🥘
Agreed because I definitely see a similarity in how my grandmother eats onions and tomatoes on everything. I eat my food like that today!
Sounds great although I've never tried it. The owner looks so young. Looks like she is in her teens.
I was going to comment on the same thing @Jossette888!
I love fried and pickled okra but you couldn't pay me to eat that slimy stuff.
Thank you so much for highlighting african cuisine and especially ivorian food Mark 🔥🔥🔥
Thank you for your support!
African cusines *

Thank you very much!
I watched this guy since 2013 when he was a little man. Now he is all big . I love him so much
omg !!! looks so good!!!! thank you for bringing the world to us through food !!! the best !!!
Mark amazing job, showcasing Ivory Coast!! You’re officially Ivorian🇨🇮💕
The red unrefined palm oil looks so beautiful. Not like the refined version of it that is now available around the world. They have been using it for thousands of years. What an amazing food culture.
Wow the people are so welcoming the food looks amazing great episode
Ohhh this is by far the best food you have showcased
Not hardly! Hope you're joking...
A real visual treat! Thank you for highlighting our pkats!
Absolutely amazing to see this kind of report from my country. Lovely thanks.
Cote d'Ivoire looks very beautiful So green!
The owner of the breakfast place was absolutely BEAUTIFUL!!
Fine like wine
Where he eat the okra?
How stunning is the owner of the first business! Flawless beauty
Thank you for coming to my beautiful country 🇨🇮
I am a WIENS fanatic because he is very humble and above all positive.
he loves everyone without distinction of race and that is why he immediately blends in with all the tribes he arrives in. I loved your entire stay in the Ivory Coast and especially with us, the Senoufo. Now you are also a senoufo with your whole family. Thank you so much. WIENS.
...IVOIRIAN SENOUFO YEO...
Ivory Coast seems like an amazing place. The cuisine and people are all so beautiful. Love from Antartica.
Antarctica???
Good country, good people.
Love when you visit Africa, but I cannot wait for the day you visit my home country Haiti 🇭🇹
Finally!!! Mark came to Ivory Coast. 🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮I wish I were there to show him around. Would have loved for him to try Foutou, Foufou, Sauce Arachide etc etc. But next time...
And now Mark is finally back in Africa but this time is the FIRST time visiting Côte D'Ivoire or Ivory Coast! 🇨🇮
Edit: also Mark is wearing Côte D'Ivoire football jersey just like he did on Senegal episode
🙌🏾
I am a kenyan working and living in dubai..... I have been to tanzania ethopia,rwanda and uganda and was planning to visit south africa towards the end of the year but a after watching this 🇨🇮 series in am conflict. The food is insane.
Good day to all! Senegalese livng in the USA. I had a similar dish for lunch yesterday that we call soupkandja (okra soup with seafood. about the same) that we eat with white rice. I ate the stew with a spoon. African for life! No matter where we live :) So proud of Africans. So proud of all citizens of the world representing their culture wherever they are. Conserve and open up. Then blend. That's how we love to live. We eat all types of food and respect all traditions and cultures. Respect people. Be openminded. Period. Love and live! Peace! Happiness at its finest.
Mark is literally in my top 10s for best human ever to exist.
I am from Mexico but this food looks so good, similar to Mexican dishes with seafood and great seasoning
No , the BBQ grilling yeah.
Everything else your lying 🤥
@@kristinalopz1623no need to bring negativity here. That's their interpretation of the food and that's ok!
Looking at some of it especially the grilling, I agree. The meats look so delicious,
I am sorry but there's no comparison with mexican food at all 😮
@@cocorita5 I ate Mexican food because I can’t got Ivorian food in America. And I can tell you there is no difference. Spanish food in general. Travel there to taste it before talking.
Omgggg i was waiting for this episode!!
My mouth is watering i can’t wait to go back home and eat all these good food!
Great video as usual 👍🏾
Can you take me back with you? 😄
Africans are happy people even when we don't have it all...
We appreciate the togetherness and unity that binds
I'm a Ghanaian and really appreciate the foods in Ivory Coast
I must say we have a lot in common
Mark ..congrats this was a treat to see the cuisine of the Cote d ivoire and a taste of its culture .The Caribbean has some similarities which make sense given the common heritage of the majority of people in the Caribbean and West Africa .Nice and lovely people .
Ivorian food is irresistible never eaten any Ivorian food before the chicken dishes are beautiful the sauce and onions!
