    Korhogo, Côte d'Ivoire - From the very northwestern corner of Côte d'Ivoire, we’re continuing our journey through the country in Korhogo, known for its unique food and especially high quality meat. Today we’ve been invited to a local home to cook some of the local Senufo tribe food and eat some of the best grilled mutton you’ll ever have.
    Senufo tribe - Mo and I headed to a local home to cook a few different dishes including Joro, which is a unique green sauce made from pounded peanuts and bean vine leaves. It was definitely green tasting and quite a healthy dish. We also had another few dishes including bambara groundnuts which were some of the best beans I’ve ever had.
    Choukouya - One of the greatest of all West African street foods is grilled meat and I’m talking about choukouya, this one made with grilled mutton. Korhogo, Côte d'Ivoire is known throughout the country for raising some of the best quality and tasting meat, and I can assure you of this. They had a huge logfire going and they were roasting fresh mutton over the fire. When you order, they slice all the meat off the bone, and serve it with onions, fresh chilies, and kankankan seasoning.
    Boloye Dance of the Panther - Finally we went to see one of the original Black Panther dances. It was one of the most fascinating displays of acrobatics, and chanting songs I’ve ever heard!
    Another absolutely incredible day in Côte d'Ivoire! A huge thank you to my friend Mo Soumahoro from Belle Côte d’Ivoire ( / bellecotedivoire ) for arranging my trip and setting up everything.

Tchonron, so healthy! 🥰 The Bolloye (Panther-Dance) was beyond amazing. 🥳 Some Hip hop historians have given credit to this tribe for break-dancing, they are the originators. The film Black Panther was also partially inspired by this tribe, I invite you all to visit the Ivory Coast!

    Mark ! You are really making me want to go home earlier than I planned to. I really appreciate you going to Cote D’ivoire and showing all over instead of just staying in the fancy places in Abidjan. Thanks to you , I truly believe all our worldly differences can be resolved over great food from all over the world. Thank you so much.

    Mark is such a true heart. I am so thankful that he's in the world with his positive energy and contagious smile. This video was fantastic! Those dancers were unbelievable! Just....wow....
    I loved how Mark had to keep referring to the last dish as "meat: as it seems he couldn't get it specified. lol Ever gracious and kind, he simply smiled and referred to it generically after that. So funny.
    The women's smiles were so sweet. I gather that Mark has a kind of intuition for when to validate back to people about the food he's being served. Like when he gives a little wow at just the right time. ( :
    Ya...great video. As always.

    Firstly, I hope you get better soon, might be the dust. I love your outfit today, great colour and design. I had great hope to visit Ghana but I have to say your trip to Ivory Coast has given me a new destination. I do wish you were served dishes with fresh locust beans as to the dried snd ground ones, personally I think the taste is different. Like tinned and fresh vegetables. That chant was touching. Your wife pounding 😁 she's cooked for you in Africa 🙌🏽 ✨

Please continue to take care of yourself in all these invaluable virtual experiences you bring us all. I read someone's comment stating your videos are documentaries, I thoroughly agree!! You are giving wisdom not only to different races but also to single race's with indifferences (ignorance) between them. May you be blessed for all that you do knowingly and unknowingly. (We want you to always remain healthy, if I may kindly say, please don't be hesitant in setting terms of health (hygiene) and safety most especially during eating. I was concerned for you when watching one of your videos, it is fine to share a bowl but it is not right to share bodily fluids.

    My sister has a best friend who is from Zambia, which is towards southern Africa, I've always wanted to see Mark travel to Zambia so I can see more of my sister's best friend's culture since they live in another state and I can't visit them often. I've also wanted to see Mark come to the Rio Grande Valley in Texas so I can cook Salvadorian dish for him lol!! Here in the Rgv, it's primarily a Mexican culture since we're so close to the border. However, we also have the influence from Texas cuisine like BBQ and other US dishes.
