» THE TRAIN
🚂The Fianarantsoa-Côte Est (FCE) railway is the train that runs from Madagascar’s highland city of Fianarantsoa to the coastal city of Manakara. It was built between 1926 and 1936 by the French colonial administration as an effort to open the east coast and create a means of transporting agricultural products.
Today, the train acts as a lifeline for local communities that aren’t accessible by road. A lack of upkeep since the 1960s has resulted in the train regularly breaking down, causing delays and even de-railings. Patient travelers looking for an opportunity to see arguably the most scenic parts of Madagascar as well as local life at each stop along the way will find this 12-24++ (yes, you read that right) hour journey unlike anything they’ve experienced before. Plus, you can sample local flavors at each stop.
💸TRAIN PRICE: 4.54 USD/16,000 MGA for 2nd class | 11.35 USD/40,000 MGA for 1st class

🥒ABOUT BEFRS:
Hey, I’m Sonny! I’m from the US but currently call Vietnam home. I’ve been living in Asia for 10 years and started making food and travel videos to document my experiences. People either enjoyed my undeniable charm or enjoyed watching me eat things like coconut worms, and thus Best Ever Food Review Show came to be.
I travel to different parts of the world, hunting down and documenting the most unique food each country has to offer. If you see any factual food errors in my videos, please feel free to politely let me know in the comments. I'm a huge fan of trying different, interesting foods in each country. My show is from a Western point of view, but more importantly, MY point of view. It is not meant to offend any person or culture.
Don’t forget to subscribe to Best Ever Food Review Show, so we can connect through food and travel and become Bestys!

One reason why I find your videos better than the other food review shows on RUclips is your smooth commentary. You're natural and eloquent and even when you're not talking, your facial expressions communicate it all. Real pro, Sonny 😊
Thats true, i agree w u👌👍
Finally someone points it out! Can't stand Mark Wiens' and Trevor James' lack of knowledge and research about the foods and cultures and constant repetition of the same script over and over
@@annafidler9011 I think Mark has stepped his game up a bit check out his videos in Africa. I get what you mean though
Yup he was born to do this
Well put
Part of the reason why your videos are so addictive is the kind human element - it warms my heart the way you share food with the locals or pay more than what is asked for (“let’s just give him a bunch of money!”), especially in places where communities are struggling just to get by. Your views are also refreshingly honest, often hilarious but without being hurtful. You’re “Good People”! 😊
Yeah, he's a kind soul for sure. That's what makes these travels so enjoyable.
Agree to that!
Word!
Having a kind heart has its own rewards...God bless Sonny..may his tribe increase..
So true. He is an amazing human. Keep doing this show. No one can top you
This is not a food show, its a cultural show disguised as a food show. Great job man👍
I love Anthony Bourdain.. and this channel is the perfect alternative for me..
Agree!!!
@@KiwiPew can't stand Anthony Bourdain and this show is the perfect alternative
no such thign as culturex or not
It's touching me ...I'm Malagasy and i'm so happy to see how you love our food and i just want to tell you thank you and you're a Nice person ...thank you sooooo much
The people of your country are absolutely beautiful....I love the melanin and culture
Jacob Powell don’t tell me it’s because of the animation madagascar
Jacob Powell i guess you are not the only one... some tourists before coming here thought there were no cities but only forests
Sonny really does capture the peaples strength an culture in a way that respectful and classy. The women are amazing just from the little bit we do see, their strong, bold an wonderfully beautiful 😍 💕
you look like a white person in ur profile pic stop lying lol
I have been in a fog of depression for 2 days. Struggling to keep up with a full time job plus full time college. I was getting down on myself, feeling crappy, feeling overwhelmed with my life and my responsibilities, rent, gas, etc.
This video changed the course of my day, it uplifted me. It’s Sonny’s enthusiasm, humor, zest for life....and seeing how humble the Malagasy people are, having a hard life, living and enjoying even though life’s unpredictable for them..that made me appreciate what I have. It made me feel happy again ❤️
Christa, hope all goes well for you
Good wishes to you...🤗✨🌻
If you're having depression problems man, try changing your diet to Carnivore diet or Keto diet that focuses on high quality meat and fat. It made mine disappear after and it might for you too
Good luck hun stay strong
Awenebo Asante thank you so much ♥️
This guy is 100% 0 pretentious, he is citizen of the world. I'm terribly in love with this guy. 💓
Hahaha
STFU
He is sweet and adourable
@@incidentalist maachuda

I just love this host so much. He has a truly positive and adventurous spirit. The camera work and editing is great too. I never knew how beautiful Madagascar was.
It's 3am in the morning and I watched almost all of your Madagascar videos.
CHAI Fishing same😅 Sonny has a strong stomach!
Me too.😅😅😅
Am means morning yes.
CHAI Fishing I've been on a binge for about 4 days now...major struggle keeping phone and Ipad charge. Love the episodes love the food but mostly love all the ppl he meets!😀❤️

Well man. Your videos are WAY better than ANY television culinary show. Honestly. Good work man... Keep it up.
True indeed
I agree
True...
wrrr
Right!?!? I have absolutely no idea why he's not on TV, Netflix , travel channel etc... Absolutely crazy.
I almost cried at the final message about Madagascar. Well done sonny.
Honestly. 🥺😢🤣🤣
@@tanboii2015 yes 🤗🤗
yeah about 1 trip vietnam
@@sunwols ya.
@@sunwols god, that made me so emotional.
Everytime I watch your channel I feel like I'm in that place too. More power to ur channel sonny and team. Good job always 😍💪💪💪

@Hurng Duy Bruh
Hi cristy.im pinoy
This channel deserves the name “best ever food review show”. Camera work and editing is just top notch and no need to mention sonny, best reviewer of the best food show.
Dont forget the music too...
It really is very professional, but also very fun and creative.
It was about to telecast on tv but unfortunately the show cancelled but sonny didn't like to gaveup so he was doing it on RUclips
The people of Madagascar are beautiful!
I know thank you ;) 🇲🇬 💪
🐟
damn madagaskar feels so much like India😭
it's true, thank you
@@MrTechpriest40000 why the face????
The fact that you target developing countries, where there are unique cultural experience makes your videos so awesome....continue with the good work.
You know it's real street food review when he picks up the fallen food item and eats it again .
ADDS FLAVOUR,
A little dirt is good for our immune system
to my opinion thats not dirty , its dirty when u waste food when people in the world crying for a grain of rice/wheat
@@danialazam8579 who said it was dirty. He obeyed the 5 second rule 😂
danial azam it is dirty, I’m malagasy and most of us don’t take back food that fell on the ground. And no one is crying to get wheat or anything here
I really love this kind of concept.. Not only foods, but also the lifestyle/culture is also being shown.. Its a food review show but also a travel show at the same time 😂
@Muhammad Abdul Manaf Couldn't agree more.. Sonny is witty, and the storytelling is also fascinating at times
When you eat the food which fell down... Lots of Respect for that🙏... You should respect the food... Once again loved your video ❤❤💕 Love from India🇮🇳 💕😘
The smile on the little girl selling the corn just melts my heart. She is utterly adorable and pray over all these people, may the Lord protect and comfort them all.
I love this this guy! He’s my favorite foodie! He’s respectful to every culture!!
This Malagasy series just keeps getting better and better
Madagaskar.. such a beautiful place.. the real earth.. not industrialised and destroyed the natural beauty.. real people of earth...love from India😍😍
We all live on the real earth lol
It is beautiful. But there's a lot of slash and burn agriculture going on recently.
Great country but heavily deforested
I'm from Madagascar 🇲🇬 and this is such a great video! 😍
I miss home, especially the food...
Do you know the song at end?
A Mouse Utopia Experiment Sorry it’s not malagasy
Actually if the train stops why would someone rate it low. Its a great experience to get along with people I would have loved it.
8
no ur not HAHA you look like a chinese person
Man, thanks for making these kind of videos. All the Malagasy people should watch so they can appreciate more their country and culture.
I love how he is so friendly to everyone. And even tho he grew in a different life style,he still tries his best to respect the ways others live.
This guy should have his own TV Show
He is making a show with The Travel Channel.
@@TommyAngelo1337 not anymore, he explained it before. Travel Channel just wants to do things like ghost shows and hes not all about that
He definitely should I would watch all the time he’s like the male Ellen lol
The challenge of having a TV show is losing one's artistic freedom.
Id never watch if it were on television. The tv is just background noise to me.
Ahh i love how sonny always polite to the food vendors, guide and the locals. Love how he respect the foods even the one on the ground! 5s law wont hurt u! 🤭
Love his clumsiness, awkwardness, his dad jokes, his average looks. Everything is just averagely perfect! Everything in moderation are just perfect to me! 🥰
You're such a good person. Even your tour guide is nice and humble.
8:00 He proved that five seconds rule was right.
Wow, I see a cross-culture here. The food called 'Nem' that he mentioned is literally spring roll or "nem" in Vietnamese pronunciation. Well, as my inference, French people have brought that food from Vietnam into Madagascar as both these two countries were under the colonization of the French. Am I right? Sorry if my inference is wrong.
yes, it is similar to vietnamese nem ran! i am both malagasy and vietnamese :)
however, a lot of the food is also brought over from trading and diversity in ethnicity, not just colonisation. you can also find sambosy there, for example, which is a derivative of the indian samosas. as well, the coastal greeting "salamo" is derived from the arabic greeting "salam alaikum". madagascar has long been a hub for trading and traveling, since it is nestled between africa and asia! many things were brought over by traveling salesman.
i think it is incredibly unique in its blend of cultures; if you are to look at some very basic words, like numbers, it really makes its proto-austronesian roots shine! example; ruclips.net/video/YzKxyiTMX8g/видео.html so it actually has similarities to languages like hawaiian and indonesian!
i do not know if nems were brought over by the french due to colonisation, but i would think it just as likely that it was brought by vietnamese travelers :)
@@Angel-vv9xo LOL Madagascar is Africa and not Asia.. why you gotta be embarrassed about that? Be proud
@@mikeboshko2623 embarassed about what ?? you're the one complaining about malagasy being africa ?? they were only saying that a part of madagascar was also conqueer by indonesian and have asian lines ( austronesian). may mada a part of africa but a part of his history also came from asia thats just what they said :)
Its not only a food channel.Its a class,a journey,alifestyle and a learning.
This is by far one of my favorite destinations. Especially the guide. Hes great. Keep it up!
Beautiful! I"m from this area, we enjoyed watching this Video with my kids, and hubby.... love from CA

Best Ever Food Review Show please come to Pakistan lots of love and prayers to your way
Sonny you are a legend! I'm currently bing watching all your vids. I love it...
I love how this show seems so high production like a travel channel show but it’s not really high production, that makes it much more entertaining and genuine.
I know I'm seeing this over three years after the release, I just have to say I am truly enjoying the Madagascar videos. What a gorgeous country!
Seller: how much are you going to pay for this food ?
Him: Yes
Kul
Didn't have a hero growing up but I guess I just haven't found the right one until you Sonny, yes you, my man.
I agree
I'm from indonesia.my brother Madagascar💕.
Indonesia loves Madagascar 💖
Terimakasih ... Malagasy and Indonesian people are similar,also the language and all...
Madagascar loves Indonesia 💖.
Terimakasih ! Indonesia cantik .
I love how you’re so giving and blessing the less fortunate! A little appreciation and kind words goes a long way; you do that and more!♥️
I love the beautiful smiles from the locals. They seem so genuine and nice!
“Accidentally stumbled on real f’ing life” 🤣🤣
the face you make when you’re “just offering food” sometimes just to feel good about youreself but then they take it all. regrets always at the end 😂
As far as i know this is the Best Food Travel Show Kudos!
I adore the culture that this channel shows. I love learning about food from other cultures, but I really love learning about the people from other cultures! It seems that the people from Madagascar are hardworking, good people. I pray many blessings over their country and over the lives of the people there. ❤️
Bro creds to sonny and his production team, The camera work is really good

I lived and worked in Madagascar for five years in my younger days. Zebu was local, cheap and plentiful. Anything else was imported and expensive. We all ate lots of zebu. It doesn’t take very long living there all the time to forget what beef taste like.
Man editing skills are at point. Feels like to pack my bag and visit Madagascar.
his sponsor is a travel company so you get it
This episode just introduced me once again to a very geuine simple life living happily with such small dream and desire. It really shows the real happiness away from hush&rush of crowded cities and towns with all fancy lights all arounds. Loved the background music too...so peaceful and relaxing tone.
Great job
Madagascar gives me so much hope. Of times in life when it looks difficult, you need a sip of hope and love for yourself.
Your face when 12 hours becomes 18 hours becomes 24 hours. Killer.
Sonny my man you gotta start to make these episodes longer....i already have to wait for a next episode, wouldn't mind if it was longer ❤💯you a real one!!
The guide that you got...he is an integral part of this whole video... Amazing
My dream. Travel the world , experience the food, culture and people. Thanks Sonny ❤️
I love it when Sonny Shares his Food with the Locals. Keep up the Great work Sonny.
When he grab the food from the floor. #5secondsrule 😂😂
Hi. From Philippines.
it was best job. Food means God's blessings to us.
Life moves slower in the Third World. The "five second rule" is more like...well, you don't actually count the time. You just pick it up and eat it.
We do have the same #5secrule in Lithuania 😂😁😜
I might have done the same thing. You never know what's offensive in foreign countries.
I made the same face and sound when he dropped. "Ooop!" My thoughts: hurry and pick it up lol
i love how the guide loosen up after a beer or two. "Zebu taste like Zebu"
Logan Paul has certainly aged gracefully.
Aurora Meiesna HA GOTTEM
Noo it's his bigger brother sonny Paul
Hahaha! Lol. 😂🍺🍺
Lmao
He's banned from Japan though
This is not just a food channel, I watch it more for the human face and the human experience that Sonny brings forth. Sometimes it brings tears to the eyes.
Loved that you skipped first class, when you had a choice.
No joke, madagascar is beautiful. I bet the country will have a tourist boom if they really promote their tourist attraction and some transportation infrastructure. Really love your channel sir, srsly
Srsly this video worth more than 10thousand likes
beautiful country..
beautiful people..
amazing food!
great job sonny! as always! ❤
Thank you
When sonny says for the chilli fried snack. I’m loving it and the local says I can’t handle it. 😂😂
I'm from India and I felt the food in many ways like ours. The landscape is awsm. I must visit this place someday
There's no similarity in the food
Its amazing to see the amount of similarities in food of Madagascar and india
Stumbled upon this channel by mistake 6months ago! Been here ever since. Such a great show Sonny!
Sonny: are you here everyday?
Seller: *shakes head*
Guide: Yes, he is.
😂
almost every african country, including madagascar, shake their head sideways to say yes. It's like the opposite in terms of head nodding compared to western civilizations, so when they say no, they nod their head up and down. :)
@@betavayne6745 ohh, is that? Something new to know. 👍👍
@@betavayne6745 that's interesting
Best Ever episode!! You really showed the culture of a great place and people!! I love train travel, but never a experience like this! Thanks
Can't wait for Louisiana ♡♡♡♡♡
The fact that the nems costs 5 000 ariary and he gave the guy a 20 000 ariary without the change make him a really good guy ❤️❤️❤️
Your videos help me on my darkest days struggling with depression, thank you 🙏🏽✨😌
Props to the production team! You guys are just on another level! Best food, travel show on RUclips!!
Yo Sonny! Just wanna congratulate you on your 2MILLION SUBS! Love all of your videos and keep up the good work. :)
Love from the Philippines! ❤
Boom finally some balls in an episode! I was about to give up on you Sonny; made me proud son!
I can’t explain my love for this show. It’s honestly amazing
Hello from the Fiji islands! What a beautiful country.
Much love from Indonesia 😊
I wish I could travel the world! Also that food looks so delicious!
How can u eat so much sunny without getting an upset stomach..m ur regular viewer and want to know that....
I feel so lucky to have found your channel. :-)
I like how every is genuine and not scripted
"you never know, we'll be there or not. we'll see." said in such a calm demeanor just made me laugh.
I realky love your madagascar tour man! The place is just awesome It's simple yet so much fun! If I ever get to madagascar I would love to have that same guy as my guide too. keep it up man!
Yoooo sonny killing it in Madagascar!! I’ve always wondered what the Malagasy ate!
@Robert whittle Is that what you see when you look into a mirror?
@Robert whittle kudos for the camera work but this madagascar food in comparison with any other of sonny's tried foods is just shit. i am soryy, but it is. peaccccceee, i agree wit robert
i love your videos, thankyou for inspiring me to travel!
Fucking get out there man!! Experiences are better than buying "stuff"
Ed Tedeschi i would get fucking out there but travelling cost some real money too and not everyone has that much money
When i am sad or depress , i always come to see his videos and smile
He is the greatest man alive
THANKU!!! U are the NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC for FOOD!!! I feel like Im there! May the Gods Bless all of U!!!
Zibu tastes like goat, your tour guides face changed after you said that. "Zibu tastes like zibu"
“Nem” is basically eggroll. The french use the vietnamese word for it. Therefore madagascar, which used to be french, say it too.
Oh no way? Is that right? Interesting.
Best Ever Food Review Show yes 😅.
Hi sir. I loved watching your vlog. I always go to internet shop and watch your vlogss. Whenever i dont have cellphone then i used to go internet shop just to watch your videos. Stay humble and kind. God bless.
Keep hard work n u can buy smartphones to watch this channel, u can do it 😇💪
@@milkmeow_4373 yes sir. I will. I can do it.😊 Thankyou!
This is the real Sonny and this is why I love him so much... When others rate things *-HORRIBLE-* he turns that into an exciting food adventure..
I dont know why but this video makes me happy. Something really special which cant be explained.
Ohhh! So the thumbnail's dark part was corns😂
Zibu tastes like Zibu 🤣🤣. You are awesome as always. Cant wait to see Indian Series.
Omg did you really met him ?
@@mohitsabnis6270 yes, i met him at Pune
@@tilaknugur oh great
dude.... you completely forgot u had those stuffed green chilies in india
That chilly dipped in bator and later dipped in oil is called Mirchi bajji in India. It is a snack.
You inspire me to be like you. Literally living my dream!
8:07 I’ve got to hit the like bc of that
10:43 that woman smiling look good
Sonny, you've outdone yourself as always. I must have missed this one last March. This was so touching and educational. Go you, for travelling with heart. :) Be with the people, eat with the people, and then learn who they really are.
I've never had so much fun on a train! Food is outstanding! And that person who took the entire bag of snacks is hillarious!
When Sonny drops that crocodile bullet on the floor an picks it up wipes an secretly eats it, is what I'd do! 🤣🤣🤣🤣 x
