      That was his observation that stopped me for a moment. I lived in China for 18 years and left there recently with a deep dislike of their government, I find it difficult these days explaining to Australians how much I loved the people I mixed with in my daily life, the populace of countries with 'bully' regimes are not an indication of the person you meet in the street or restaurant. Nicely put Sunny.

Sounds like you encountered people who work for the regime based on the experience you give if that was common enough of an encounter for you, because that is the only time whether you are Iranian or foreign that you are guaranteed to encounter hate as they are racist even towards Iranian people as they see themselves as Muslim and not iranian. They are the complete opposite and at conflict with the rest of society there... Which is exactly the point of my comment about their misportrayals from their own government. It's a very complex society and if you've been unlucky enough to encounter the government associated people then you really have not experienced actual Iranian society enough to warrant forming a genuine view of them.

      I wouldn't visit as a Westener now though beacuse of the government. Here in Sweden we just got back two of our citizens that were taken hostage while visiting Iran. One of them was held in prison for years and was about to be sentenced to death for ''spreading corruption on earth'' (The Iranian government didn't specify what that means) the Swedish government had to negotiate a prisoner exchange by releasing a convicted war criminal and genocide perpetrator. So if you go to Iran you may just become a political bargaining chip for the Iranian government.

That said, the country has seriously modernized from what it was back in the 1970s. Seeing the food, as well as all the other stores shown in passing, stirs my soul... Excellent video full of lots and lots of memories! You missed one key form of bread Barbari Bread is one of the staples. Most Americans and Europeans absolutely LOVED Barbari Bread. That's a bread in long, relatively thin loaves, with the bread itself about an inch thick after baking. Cooked much the same way in one of the large open ovens.

      Please don't use the term "fake media". It is a propaganda term used by dictators and wannabe dictators (*cough* Trump) to discredit critical reporting in the news media. It is up to each and every person to have enough media sophistication to know if what they see on the news is truthful reporting or opinions and that what makes the news are the actions of a few and usually powerful individuals trying to gain power or money or both.
      You wouldn't want the news to be showing everyday people in a distant country going to work, meeting friends, and eating good home cooked food. Yet that is the reality for 99.9999999% of the global population. That's what documentaries, movies, and RUclips are for.
      We need to finally realize that and act accordingly instead of taking the easy route and blaming "the media" for our own biased and racist views. Read and watch media from different countries, don't get your news always from the same sources, learn a language, and travel.

Except noticing how clean they and their cities are compared to other countries of the region... especially after watching the Cairo video! The subway in Tehran simply stands out. Iran definitely deserves another video (or two) considering that some of its prettiest regions and cities were skipped altogether. Don't blame Sonny at all... there are just soooo many cities and subcultures there. It's like dozens of countries and cultures merged into one 😍🥰🤤

    Every single episode of this series I see, my world expands. I want to go to Uzbekistan, I want to go to Nigeria, I want to go to Iran. The people living in these different places and their culture is so incredibly amazing. All of these people are just normal people living their lives, dating, partying, cooking, dancing, singing.. I've actually been in tears so many times watching this show. It males me so happy and sad at the same time. All these governments and sick leaders, all the misinformation, alienation and stereotypes some try to push. People are just people. We're all human. I'm deeply moved and I did not expect it! Love and peace from Norway. ❤

    I'm Korean, my best friend is Iranian (we've been best friends for over 30 years, since jr high school). I LOVE Persian food. I gotta honestly say, Persian rice is, IMO, BETTER than Korean rice. I love me some Lubia Polo, Ghormeh Sabzi, Gheimeh, Barg, Koobideh, Fesenjoon and you HAVE to have a bit of Mast-O-Khiar on the side. SOOO....GOOD...Honestly, I'm salivating right now. Maybe I'll call my buddy tomorrow and see if his mom's doing any cooking. We might have to drive over there to visit and say hi, conveniently around dinner time. ;P
    On the other hand, my best friend LOVES Korean cooking as well. He LOVES Galbi, LA Galbi, Bulgogi (especially when you wrap it in lettuce with rice and Ssamjang), Bibimbap, Kimchi Bokkeumbap, Gimbap, Dak Juk (with a little extra salt), Memil Kuksu (during long hot summer days of us playing outside during summer vacation) etc...
    He even made up a song about Boricha when we were kids, that he would randomly sing, out of the blue (in a slow lounge singer way). It went, "Boricha, Boricha...........Boricha, Boricha." repeat ad nauseam. He called it "The Boricha Song" lol.
    THIS, is a perfect example of what's great about America.

I mean that's all you need right at the end of the day, a group of people who put efforts to make you feel comfortable and a country which has a balance of modernization along with historic culture.

    I absolutely LOVED watching this video! I so enjoyed the way that Sonny was himself around the Iranian people and they laughed about the same things that we laugh about here in the United States. No matter where we go, people cherish their spouses, their children, their families, weep for and celebrate life, and give and receive love and friendship. We all are living the human condition and experience this life as human beings, not a political system. As Americans, we are exposed to different cultures and places in relation to a sanitized view of the people through their political systems and communities. Small, divisive minority sects give us a poor representation of the people at large. We tend to make assumptions by what we are told and not by what we can experience. Unfortunately, we aren't all in the position to see for ourselves what these places and the people are truly like so, it is so wonderful to have the opportunity to catch a glimpse through someone else's experience and through their camera lens. Thank you, Sonny, for this wonderful opportunity to see a different Iran. It was truly enlightening.

Places we were told to be careful and don't trust the people were usually wrong, except those that were trying to do harm to the U.S. and her interests. I've been to many dangerous places, but one thing "I" did was be aware of my surroundings and keep an open mind! Iran I met many wonderful people and that was typical of a lot of areas I was detailed to. I was raised to not see color, do unto others as you would have done onto you, keep an open mind and always remember to help those that need help. I was third generation Navy and served to protect my country and our citizens. BUT, thank God that did not deter me or change my mind on how I was raised. To this day I wish more people would open their eyes to what is real and true. Thank you I feel and think this was one of your BEST episodes yet!

    Sunny glad to know more foodies from RUclips in the states are coming to Iran 🇮🇷 to enjoy the culture and food. The presentation represents the people of Iran are friendly,generous, and kind hearted. People make the nation not the government . The government misrepresents the true soul of the people of Iran. You make a great food ambassador. 😊😊😊

      I had some guests from France and UK who visited iran and once me and my family hosted them they were shocked !
      And we were shocked because of the being shocked like what do u mean u do not put a full table of fruits in front of guests or not make multiple types of food 🤣🤣
      Also they wanted to wash their own dishes which like kinda offensive here cause it means we were impolite hosts 🤣🤣

    I love your videos, Sonny. However, I'm busy today and needed to eat a quick lunch and get back to work. I ended up sitting here for 2 hours, enjoying your trip to Iran. I have to say, this was the most beautiful video I've seen of yours. Your humbleness and heartfelt gratitude beams through. 5 stars, man!!
    I'm highly impressed, though I'm not at all surprised . Your production team is incredible, as well. Kudos to you all!!

    This was posted almost a year ago but I wanted to add another shoutout to Iranians. I worked with Iranians (all Persians I think) in the US for years and they are the most kind and class people I've ever worked with. Two friendships came out of working together but unfortunately our lives took different paths so I haven't talked to them in a long time. I love Persian food. My most favorite dish of all is fesenjoon but I love me some ghormeh sabzi and eat it once a week at local restaurants in the Washington, DC area. I like all Persian food that I had a chance to try living in the US. Don't want to make it about politics but I'm with your struggle with all of my heart.

      well Iran is a big country with different ethnicities and everyone cooks differently, of course. Like my mother does not use that much oil or frying, and we prefer the healthier version of the foods. When we're sick, we cook soup with lots of veggies and we also have something called "chai-nabat". It's chai with nabat (crystalized sugar and saffron) which magically heals whatever ur suffering from.😂
