BANANAS ARE NOT FROM AFRCA BRO.. .
Musa species are native to tropical Indomalaya and Australia, and are likely to have been first domesticated in New Guinea. They are grown in 135 countries, primarily for their fruit, and to a lesser extent to make fiber, banana wine, and banana beer, and are sometimes even grown as ornamental plants.
THE ONLY THING DISTINCTIVELY BBBLK ON THIS SHOW WAS THE DELICIOUS LOOKING FOOD FROM THE 1ST RETAURANT...
THE REST OF THE "SOUL FOOD" IS JUST FOOD DERIVED FROM MAINLY SOUTHERN WHTE AND NATIVE AMERICAN FOODS.. .
EGYPT MIGHT BE IN AFRC BUT THE EGYPTIANS WERE AND ARE CAUCASIAN ARABS.....
Bro?
I went on Larry's tour yesterday & it was amazing! He's a very good guy & knowledgeable of Harlem. Plus there were many hidden gems along the way. We also ran into Lydia from Ourtbox Cafe in our travels & she is a very nice lady.
So cool!
You are one of my fav RUclipsrs and this video shows why. It is not just your love of food, which I enjoy as a fellow foodie, it is the diversity of food and neighborhoods you show case. I don't see any others doing this. Your channel has so much heart this video highlights all I mentioned (heart, food, local, diversity). As a native New Yorker I thank you.
diversity(?) it's just black people lol
Ur not a native new yorker ur a transplant
I love the vibe of Harlem. The food, the people, the history.....wish I could see and know more about the people's childhood memories growing up in Harlem with soul food cooked by their moms or grandmums and family gatherings.
all gems! love seeing these local favorite spots
Harlem is my second home. I’m definitely hitting every spot. These are hidden gems I never been but that soon will change. Thanks for sharing Harlem with the world. You are one of the very very few that take time to explore, connect with the community and share
Thank you so much.

So glad you went to Jacob restaurant! I ate there last summer, and I was actually moved to tears by the soulfood… You could actually taste the generations of history in it. ❤️ Now I can't wait to book the walking tour on my next visit! Thank u!
Oh wow!
Yes! Jacob’s! Much better than Manna’s. ❤❤❤❤❤
My stomping ground. I ❤ when he film in HARLEM and others see how awesome we are. Thanks!!
This video was a little different Jon ❤. Props to Larry for guiding you to some great places. The owners of the food paces are full of compassion and heart. I loved this ❤❤
I worked in Harlem for two years, Jacob’s great 😍
Jacobs is one of the best and they normally have entertainment on the weekends.
I agree!
Ive been to NYC twice, and stayed away from Harlem, due to its reputation. Im deep into the planning section of my next trip, and Im now going to make a deliberate effort to go and see and eat at a couple of these places. That banana pudding looked amazing...
The banana pudding is good!
Loved this! One magical night some years ago 2 dear friends who live in Harlem took me out for awesome jazz and a free midnight buffet at a warm friendly club. One cherished memory of NYC!

God bless those who emigrate to the US legally to achieve the American dream. We have to support them
John is the best. He really gets it. He really really gets it. And the cafe looks so fun.
I live on the upper east side and sometimes go up to harlem on the weekends to stuff my face haha. So many delicious places up there, great vid
More like this please. Hello from Ontario, Canada.
Oh man, I wish I could donate to help out Ourtbox. She seems so nice and kind, both to Harlem itself and the homeless that come in. I always respect businesses who try to help homeless folks. I really hope that Gofundme makes the goal.
She's a jewel :-)
So glad you’ve gone north or times sq! Well done.
This is awesome dude
Fantastic video, thank you
Hi Jon! Wanted to say THANK YOU so much for the videos and guides you share! I recently visited New York for the holidays and your videos helped me so much and it was such a hassle free trip! I learnt and knew so much just from your vids that I felt like I knew so much about New York even before going there and some of my friends didn't believe when I said it was my first time in NY lol. Thank you again!
My 2024 goal is to explore more neighborhoods! Harlem has been on my list but your video has made it a priority on my list! Great video
Hi Jon,
I was fascinated with this vlog of Harlem. The food looked delicious and the other gentleman was a great source of information as well.
I’m addicted to your channel. Thank you for your constant food and attraction exposure in NYC.
Peter
happy new year🎉🎉 subscribed😊 cool channel and videos😊 keep it up👍👍
Mannn listen! Every time I go to NYC, I visit Harlem. The food is amazing, and I have never any problems. I have been there day and night, and I’ve never felt unsafe.
Keep on pressing your luck.
@@GovernmentIssued Crime can happen anywhere. I have some of the best times in Harlem.
This is the episode I have been waiting for! Thank you,Jon!
@Here Be Barr: Thank you for making and sharing this video. The food at the first two restaurants looked so delicious!
Also, having Mr. Larry there was a nice addition to this video. Please continue to show black and other cultural places.
Excellent video Jon. I love when you get the locals into these! Happy new Year Jon and everyone else!
Really enjoyed this, been to Harlem a few times and i can’t wait to go back to try these places too!
I’ve been watching all the New York compilations and omg you’re like the best person at influencing because i swear i want to go to every single spot you have mentioned keep the great work and addictive videos that i love watching! Especially the Cheap eats series !
Love the food spots and the that banana pudding looks amazing. I might have to stop by for that one day. Great video Jon 😎
Cool video. Great spot to visit on my next vacation. Thanks
GREAT food. Great guide. Great video. Great channel.
Heart ❤ & soul 🙂 + superb production 🎉
Just a quick clarification..bananas originate from Southeast Asia back a long time ago..of course through international trade bananas went all over the place and flourished in many climes..Africa being one of them..✌️
Love this video. Harlem is not longer what it was back in the 1970s-1980s. I want to visit there soon. Thank you for the interesting restaurant suggestions (:
Will definitely consider booking that walking tour! Thanks for the recommendation
Great video!
Fantastic video.
Thank you for sharing this community!
A very historic neighborhood
That looks delicious! Definitely trying to make it!
Looks good!
Correction - I gave outdated information. Based on current information, Bananas are not indigenous to Africa. They are believed to have originated in the region of Southeast Asia and Papua New Guinea.
And Nilla Wafers are not vegan. That’s ok, this is a great video!
Oh man, I wish you saw your video sooner. Tomorrow is my last full day in NYC. I will save them for my next trip back to the city. Thank you for sharing
I love everything about all those places and all those people.
Harlem still has an edge and it always will.
Love the architecture in Harlem. agree about the safety, the only part of it that still feels uneasy is East Harlem, 125th and Lex deserves its reputation sadly. Great neighborhood.

EGYPT MIGHT BE IN AFRC BUT THE EGYPTIANS WERE AND ARE CAUCASIAN ARABS.....
Agreed. I used to live in Hamilton heights and loved it. Had friends that lived in Spanish Harlem and I wasn't so comfortable when visiting.
I'm going to visit Jacob's soul food buffet one day ! I miss Harlem..
U r the best ❤
Cool video ❤
Harlem is worth a visit Jon !
Harlem is great been there twice.
Jacob’s looks awesome 😮!!
It is awesome ❤
That buffet looks so good! And affordable, too!
That place is trouble haha.
9:40 Sorry but banana is not an African fruit.
Most experts agree that it was most likely first domesticated by the Papuans in the Pacific and then reached Asia. (At least according to currently available major publications)
It was introduced to Africa through maritime trades later.
Very cool video.I wish the guy at the first place much success. He truly seemed to love what he was doing & so happy to share foods from his birthplace.
Great video. Thanks to your advice our trips have always included off the beaten track spots and neighbourhoods and boroughs we may never have discovered. You are adding to our list once again.
L.A. Sweets NY 192 Malcom X Blvd The most amazing desserts. Get the red velvet cupcakes
Lloyd’s carrot cake and Make my Cake were my spots.
Bananas were actually domesticated in New Guinea and from there they spread around the world. Lucky us!
Awesome showcasing Harlem. Also really appreciated that you captioned yourself as well as your guests.
Looking yummy
Cool!!
Hey guys, this looks good. The buffet spot doesn't seem like much of a secret. BBQ. Good neighborhood feel.
All the food looked so yummy 😋👍
OMG My husband always tells me we've been to NYC too many times, but the city always gives you a reason to come back. I've been to Sylvia's once, I'll visit Jacob's next time I'm in town, and Ginjan! So I'll have to go twice to Harlem! Also I would love to make the tour with Larry. Greetings from Buenos Aires, Argentina.
Thank you for highlighting the businesses of Harlem as they exist today.
Hey man, we are heading to NYC in April. Aussies in NYC for the first time! We've been watching your channel as the ultimate New York Guide. Please let us know if you'd be keen to film some content for your channel. " An Aussie Tourist's Perspective"
Love the mom and pop shops…that’s what NY is known for
Here be barr, request #6,918 for margherita pizza in jamaica avenue review. Also gabys pizza is on hillside ave for a close second
I grew up in Philly and have visited NYC many times, but I’ve only been to Harlem twice. I felt as big a sense of history on 125th Street as in my birthplace, DC, and/or Boston. I loved your video.
Yeah man Wag wan rasta jerk chicken rice and peas
👀 Great video 👍🏾💙
🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲
At Ginjan Bros, I had the Afro Burrito and Chicken Jalloff Bowl. It was a mb amazing and unique food experience.
Amazing!
Just a heads up: Nilla Wafers contain milk and eggs. So, maybe the banana pudding is vegan, but the garnish isn’t.
I was going to say the same. I hope she will get that information.
Thanks for the info. I was wondering about that.
I wouldn’t ever think of Nilla Wafers as garnish for banana pudding; it’s an integral ingredient!
If the owner is putting each serving together I guess she could offer a vegan Bananas and Pudding which would be completely different than Banana Pudding.
Good catch!
Hopefully she does bc it made me go 👀 and I’d been curious to know ever since I watched this video a week ago. Finally researched it and stumbled upon this comment as soon as I came back here haha! I just think it’s hilarious when she goes something about ppls “specific dietary needs” yikes 🤣
Yikes 😬 😅😂
I want some soul food now!
We needed a new NY vid.
John an amazing adventure The food looked amazing. Well videoed. How about it John can we double dog dare you to do a show on Vegan food including deserts. Come on John come over to the dark side
Bill in Fort Wayne Indiana
From Connecticut I train into Harlem 125 station. I go to hajjis for a chopped cheese and I ate at mannas buffet on 125th.
Shout-out to your camera man :-)
Bananas come from Aisa. Also almost all bananas are Cavandish, so the UK.
Nah. Remember, Africa invented everything!
how much is the banana pudding pls ?
ANYWAYS that looked really good, so much nice food in NYC, don't go to mcdonalds people
You look cold, hopefully that soul food warmed you up!
What would also be interesting is changing money in New York. Somehow everyone assumes that you have credit cards. In Thailand 99% of the time is cash and you can change money on every corner
This might be my favorite video of the channel. This was awesome
Wow, thanks!
Bananas are from Asia…..
Making me Hungry!
CARDINAL SIN NOT GETTING COLLARDS AT THE BUFFET
Hello I have been subscribed to you for years and watch almost every video. Was just curious did you ever get food poisoning in your life? Was wondering because you eat so many different types of food and I got food poisoning recently so was wondering.
In New Orleans I got bad food poisoning once 🤢
The carrot cake looks yummy.
Can you visit other cities & states for reviews. I would find your podcast more interesting.
You hear so much bad press about Harlem, is it ok for tourists to visit?
No it’s not. Don’t listen to this fluff. Harlem is very dangerous
It’s Harlem…everyone knows some of the great restaurants up here.
How much was the banana pudding (can't find any information) ? Better than Magnolia bakery ?
I think was $10 for that huge plate which I had to bring home to share the wife. And yes I thought better :)
Why is it kept secret?..
Dude. Caribbean neighborhoods. Next. Hatian food will change your life!
Not to be a downer, but that banana pudding isn't vegan!
The Nilla wafers are made with eggs & milk!
And bananas originated in southeast Asia
The reason that banana pudding is vegan is that the milk was replaced with a plant based milk. True banana pudding has milk and bits of cake in there. And I don’t think nilla is vegan at all. I’ve always seen milk or milk powder in the ingredient list.
Correct. Nilla wafers have egg and milk in them.
