I'm American and I love Jordan. I've been to Jordan 6 times and always have a great time. Jordanians are the coolest people ever. Can't Waite to go back in the summer.
I think I deciphered the Mark Wiens food rating system: 1. "Oh, that's good" no facial reaction -> It's good, but nothing more. 2. "Mmmh" no facial reaction -> It's tasty. 3. "Mmmh" smiles -> That's really good. 4. "Oh, oh, oh..." smiles -> That's an amazing piece of food. 5. Slightly lean to the right with a smile -> This is awesome. I could eat it all day, every day. 6. Slightly lean to the right with a smile and closed eyes -> This is the best thing ever.
wow! i wish i can visit this country...fantastic and i love to taste all ( yes all!) the jordanian food ,specially their different types of salads with white cheese and original olive oil!!.....best wishes from germany to all jordanian people!!
Mark and Ying, I am in awe over your vlog presentation!! So well done, and please tell your guide that he is doing just such a great job with it all... wow, what an honor and what an experience that you have embarked upon! I have added Jordan to my "must visit" list! Thank you, thank you and thank you! Wow.... that food all looks just absolutely fantastic!!!
I'm sure u will love it! I go there every summer! And I just love the views and how the city is alive at night! Everyone is really friendly and have great taste! All my realitives live there!
I like how u go down to arabic countries and dont listen to the media. they say "woman cant walk in the streets and how people are violent" but u went there urself and u see how its not like that and everyone is nice to each other
The sweetest people I have ever met the JORDANIANS!! I LOVE JORDAN!! LOVE KANAFEH .....wow the beautiful vegetables, the fetah the olives the nuts the most wonderful olives yummmmmmmmm....must returnnnnnn.....love you guy!!!!! (no captions-thanks).....merci, ana maria (greetings to the guide)
Your food bites are too huge, a little table manners will be okay please. Be a gentleman and take in small bites because the food isn't going to runaway.
The city streets are very clean , wow, and fruits and vegetables are fresh, peoples are nice, lots of cultural vibes going on .. brilliant city .... and foods are far more better than burgers and sandwiches out of 2 yrs old frozen patty in US .
Mark....your video was awesome....I've lived in Jordan 3 years....I'm going back to live...you remind me of all the great food I miss...thanks again!!!
This guy doesn't know how to speak Arabic. It's rude how your only focusing on the accent. Instead you should actually watch the video and learn more about amman. I bet if u weren't from amman you would have an accent.
Mark's videos are always so down to earth; every time I watch his videos, it feels like I'm on the journey with him p.s that food at Sufra restaurant looks AMAZING!!
Lunch at that restaurant looked absolutely scrumptious. So many combinations of fresh ingredients, spices and herbs! I'm definitely glad you two were invited to Jordan, and I can't wait to see more of this series. I love learning and seeing knew things through the lens of your camera. Keep up the great work, you two!
+Monkfish looking for Waifu I live in armenian village so its EVERYWHERE here! i cant even eat anymore of it cause how much ive had hahaha i love it though...Gyros with lamb are the best
Adding Jordan to my go-to list! Such an awesome place with lots of mouthwatering food. Your guide is very hospitable too. Thanks for sharing wonderful videos :-)
I have visited over 20 countries worldwide, and I have never tasted food better than Jordanian cuisine. It's delightfully spicy with an incredibly rich and strong flavor.
These are ancient cuisines... biblical and historical. I am an Asian and find this video so interesting and educational. This is another culinary dimension I would love to explore .Love this video..
I absolutely love your vlogs.. Jordan looks beautiful! Your guide is very gracious and so serene. thank you for your videos, they're very informative & educational.
Are you sure that it is the food, and not any of the several other reasons? :-). I can't for the life of me see why this food would kill anybody, after seeing the kind of greasy, unhealthy grub an average American sustains themselves on any given day. And an average American lives much longer. Regardless of which, it is pretty sad to realize that an average Jordanian's lifespan is only into the 60s...
its not the food, many different factors like smoking which is really popular there and bad lack of exercise + health insurance system is not that well
Amman offers a dazzling array of flabbergasted foods and desserts, the city became a communal experience for most of the surrounding areas. Amman one of the oldest cities in that region.
Its breakfast time here in Australia while I watch this vid and omg how I crave the breakfast you're eating. Like you Mark I dont like sweet things so I love a savory breakfast! ☺
I love this video! This is middle-eastern food in its finest form, always a full spread of everything you can imagine. I visited Jordan in the 90's and some of my fondest memories were of the amazing food and people. Probably the best Kanafeh I've ever tried was in Jordan as well, thank you for sharing this Mark :)
.91 cents for Shawarma? I would hand him a $20 and eat until I couldn't move. lol The Pickled Turnips are to-die-for, so good. I'm glad you got to try them. I would LOVE to be able to eat there one day. For now I have a Middle Eastern cookbook and make my own stuff. Camera Bomb! LoL Mohamed wanted to be in the video action, for sure. I heard a little giggling towards the end about American. Hmmm.
Danial Mandawi Do you think an American couple, I’m white, my hubby is black would be welcome there like Mark is? I’m not trying to be sarcastic, but I’m genuinely interested! Thank you!
@Sharon Hutchins tourism is big industry in Jordan, so I don’t think they would care what race are u. Also, they have history of welcoming immigrants from different faith and race including European during WW1,2
@@sharonhutchins5784 Jordanians are very hospitable and would not care at all they will treat you the same as anyone. One or two of them might say something about you in there native language though just like tourism in any other countries. I know this because Jordan is where my family immigrated from to the USA
That hillarious reaction XD when the eyes start popping out and his body tend to move to the right a little bit, it means that Mark had found a delicious food haha
It probably evens out over time. Or there would be no Jordanians. Unless of course a certain fraction of the local people ate themselves eliminating the dangerous genetic strain over time. Possibly natural process favoured some type of localized buffet resistance O.O

Great job Mark and Ying. I didn't want this video to end, so much happening. So many different locations and different food. I bet you were tired by the end of that day. Thanks.
I dated a Jordanian man for a short time. His family was precious, so kind and welcoming. Honestly they treated me like family. Absolutely delicious, fresh food. Amazing tea and coffee! Hospitality unmatched! I ate like a queen and lost 30 lbs lol Family means everything to them. I would be honored to visit Jordan someday.
+Le I Johnson basically you should soak the lentils first in water, drain it, then boil it with chopped onions, tomatoes, carrots and butternut squash (garlic is optional) . After that mix it in a blender add cumin powder, some coriander powder, chicken stock or vegetable stock , salt and pepper. Return it to the pot and cook it for extra 15 minutes then toast some bread and serve it with half of lemon just to squeeze it and give it that fresh flavor. P.S: you can add some fine nest pasta after you blend it.

I'm always worried his eyes are going to pop or his mouth is going to get torn by the amount of food he tries to eat :D but I love it anyway :v
Me watch his videos for that gaze. Epic.
Your food bites are too huge, a little table manners will be okay please. Be a gentleman and take in small bites because the food isn't going to runaway.
Because he has those light golden brown eyes they are really pretty ....plus he seems to have a good soul.

wow finally i see more from Jordan / Amman ! Thanks alot Ying and Mark for sharing.....
I didn't know anything about Jordan but it looks like a rich and wonderful place!!
It's not really rich all tho it does have its luxurious places. It's more of a historical places with amazing culture and traditions.
@@TheTazer255it’s rich in culture and food and religion
Jordanian foods look delicious.

I have visited over 20 countries worldwide, and I have never tasted food better than Jordanian cuisine. It's delightfully spicy with an incredibly rich and strong flavor.
Jordan has such a home-feel to it while still being elegant, it is incredible!

The middle eastern food is very rich and flavorful and you're right; you need to take smaller bites and taste it. Excellent video.
These are ancient cuisines... biblical and historical. I am an Asian and find this video so interesting and educational. This is another culinary dimension I would love to explore .Love this video..
+rencrow Even way before biblical times. Best part is jordan is between asia and europe.

I'm very impressed with Jordan I would love to Jordan just for the food alone plenty of olive oil
Leroy young we kinda love olive oil we include it in mostly every dish
I never thought about going to Jordan, but after your videos I really want to go.

@@adambaidas3366 do you have IG? I am from NL and want to visit Jordan
Their food looks very healthy! I'm enjoying this Jordan tour!
It is very healthy. And the surprising thing is that good healthy food costs a lot less than junk food in Amman.
true like the shawerma is less the 1$ and a big mac is about 7$ or more
Angela Ramos jordanian traditional food is not healthy at all full of fat and oil
AMHFD you can't say that about all of it like hummus falafel and fool there healthy
Too bad Jordanians have become nationalistic a-holes.
this is the real shawarma , not the bullshit in anywhere else .
Jordan food looks exquisite , I'm sure it taste like heaven . I can't wait to try.
I absolutely love your vlogs.. Jordan looks beautiful! Your guide is very gracious and so serene. thank you for your videos, they're very informative & educational.
I don't know what Mark enjoy more food or travel,but I really enjoy his expression after taking bite of food!!!
Jordan is amazing!
beautiful country , delicious food, wonderful video very well made. btw Mark you have a very nice smile :D
Love this series Mark. You look like you are enjoying yourselves with some wonderfully friendly people.

Hi Mark and Ying.
Jordan is a beautiful country.
With an ancient culture and history.
This video provides a nice contrast to South East Asia.
The first thing that comes to mind - what incredibly healthy food, they eat!
snowywinter9 hahaha most of people in jordan dies in there's 60 because of the healthy food :)
