Love from Bangladesh. Senegal was the first African country to recognize Bangladesh following its independence in 1971. The people of senegal are really polite and hospitable. I hope in someday i will visit this beautiful country.
You can tell Pape has become comfortable in front of the camera. He’s probably my favorite food guide Mark has ever had at this point. Kind, knowledgeable and doesn’t try to steal the show or be pompous.
Im from senegal i love the way our women always say Bismillah( in the name of God) before putting the first item..in the pot...the food is blessed and tastes good..thank you Mark
@@Oliqinco Why are you hating here in the comments. It doesn’t matter, if he’s living in Senegal or not. If not, everyone who leaves his country has a reason. So let the people live wherever they choose to.
Mark, your Senegal series opens a world of simplicity, respect and grace. A very simple yet deep look into the Senegalese culture and cuisine, The juice of the revered Baobab tree is loaded with health benefits, but also spiritual significance. Watching your videos reminds us how connected the world really is.
@I love cracklins well we both individually came to the same conclusion what does that tell you? Your thinking is on the right track lol this is INDEED the case brother Love-Cracklins
I love open-minded people who are willing to discover other people's cultures and costumes instead of judging people constantly and wrongly just because they're different from them ( like french people tend to do in France ) !! Mark, you are one of those lovely open-minded people. thanks a lot for visiting our beautiful country you will always be welcome among us my brother!
@@lindawalker793 Baobab tree. It's a huge majestic tree and I believe there are 8 different species in the world. 6 species native to Madagascar, 1 to mainland Africa, Arabia and Asia,1 native to Australia. It's a symbol of Senegal and it is on the country's coat of arms. Hopefully I helped. PS: 1 glass of baobab juice contains 4 times the vitamin C in 1 glass of Orange juice. It's used for everything!

@@amma2x310 You can add some lemon juice but not too much , I use to do it but it caused me some stomach burns ,that's why I stopped putting it in my "Yassa" .

Giant hello to all my senegalese sisters and thank you Mark for show casing our wonderful country and people🌹
I’m Nigerian but from the north (predominantly Muslim part) so culturally we have more in common with the Senegalese than the rest of Nigeria in terms of language, dress and cuisine.. really hope to visit one day Edit: Nuts how big his son has grown! I started watching this channel when he was tiny!!
She’s so great at cooking, the onions don’t bother her at all. Most people get there eyes burning and watering with them. I had a friend from Senegal they are some of the kindest people I ever talked to.
Every time I watch Mark, I am remembered of how much better the world would be if people could be just half, just half of Mark is. Amazing human being.
When I thought of visiting West Africa, I only thought of Nigeria and Ghana I always forgot about Senegal. Now I will add this country to my list. Mark these videos are really amazing. Thank you for showing beauty and community all over the world.
Ivory Coast, Benin and I would have also add Mali if it was not because of the political instability there, are all must visit countries in West Africa 😉
Mark thank you for showcasing these wonderful dishes but most of all when I watch your videos I get hope seeing the hospitality you receive from so many beautiful people and cultures….
Mashallah. I have been following Mark for years now . To see him in my country make me so happy. May Allah continues to bless you and your family. A very humble man, respectful,... polite 👍 Pape vraiment merci pour cette rencontre avec Mark. Qu'Allah vous accompagne. Senegal sa kaname! T
Mark never disappoint us to be honest absolutely down to earth trustworthy guy love from gambia 🇬🇲 our neighbours have a incredible food once you taste Senegalese food thier is no going back mark
"O Wow"! This is Mark's typical expression whenever he tasted something and the taste goes straight into his heart! I am saying this as well because Pape's hospitality and guidance are really as great as Senegal itself! I am food lover too and wish that I could shoot some great shots of amazing Senegalese Food one day. Love you loads Senegal ... Love from Pakistan! "O Wow"!!! 💖💖💖💖💖
Yes I agree with the previous person, Mark is a very respectable and humble person-he should be an ambassador to the countries! If everyone was like all of these people the world would be a better place. Let’s not forget the food it all looks amazing!
Senegalese living abroad! Watching these videos fills my my heart with so much joy and happiness! Keep it up! Next food to try has to be the Mafé Dish! 🇸🇳🇸🇳🙏🏾🙏🏾💝
As a Senegalese living abroad, Yassa is my go to dish when I want to impress non-senegalese friends. It is sooooo easy to make and everyone has the same reaction as mark's tasting it, it's always so satisfying to see as cooking is my love language! I don't do my Yassa exactly like this, I prefer the "healthier" option of roasted chicken rather than fried. I normally put in the mustard as I fry the onions but I'll definitely add it later on from now on, the texture and color looks so much better. And baobab juice is everything, and yes it's pure vitamin C, and has so much health benefits 💕 This video is awesome and made me nostalgic of my home country, can't wait to go back!
God has blessed everyone to have their own path and calling. Mark its so amazing to see you travel the world for the love of good food. Being able to feature these individuals each time is a blessing in their life. Thank you for this!
Mark! I salute you for introducing your son to these different cultures in Africa. Not forgetting your wife. Good job Mark. That's Africa. Senegal 🇸🇳 western Africa. The land of real milk and real honey. Glad you're showing the world that Africa isn't a shithole. We're proud loving accepting and welcoming. We Don't see colour. We love and share the love. Almost a million subscribers. Let go guys.
Baobab fruit is also native to the state of Kordofan in Sudan and it is one of my favorite wild fruits growing up and up until now. Much love from Sudan to Mark Weins and to my brothers in Sengal!!!
would love to hear Micah's comments now. he has become very vocal and confident little kid. you are exploring places which might seem a bit intimidating to many just because of media, but im glad we get to see the good part of these countries and their cultures and cuisine. you are helping us put more countries on our bucket list.
Mark I don't know who or what convinced you to release many videos of your trip in Senegal but I'm loving every bit of it. Can't thank you enough. Well done!
Goana is soooo hot! Senegalese people just squeeze a little juice out of it. The way Mark just chew it like a piece cake is incredible 😮😂 Thank you Mark, we love the Senegalese series ❤
I live in Columbus Ohio, but I am originally from Senegal. There is a Senegalese restaurant about 10 minutes away from me and every Saturday they make yassa lol I’m planning on having some today for sure!! Oh and by the way, I’m a new subscriber here. Love this channel.
@@wallo1024 it’s a few of them you can try googling: chez Rama restaurant on Livingston Ave on the east side, Senetaste on Brice rd, Dabakh on morse rd on the north side just to name a few; I hope this helps
I can't wait to travel to Africa. It's very sad that I don't know where in Africa I'm from, but just to know that I am from the continent, and the many different people, cultures and foods are making me feel like running to a DNA test!! I hope to be a little Senegalese 😂

Don't be sad. Come to West Africa you will definitely love it. I'm from Mauritania which is next to Senegal and Mali we have common dishes and culture.
Mark, you have eaten so many different dishes from so many cultures at the end of each year you should do a top 15 video of your favourite dishes of the year so we too can try them.
Such wonderful Yassa! I love Senegalese food: 5:21 "Bismillah-ir-Rahman-ir-Rahim (The prayer in Islam to behing any task, which is said in Arabic: "in the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Ever Merciful".) Senegal is a predominantly Muslim country, and Islam has a big effect on their culture, food, and mentality too. Most of West Africa is Muslim, except the southern 1/3 of Nigeria, the southern 1/2 of Ghana, and some of the other southern halves of the coastal states between there and Liberia. Its one of those places people don't seem to associate with Islam in the West or Far East, but its very much part of the Muslim World.
🗣🔊 Thank you Mark Weins, for embracing my African people and the African culture, do to so much racism against black and Brown people all over the world, as much as other race and cultures!!! With that bright and wonderful personality you have, I see why God Has Blessed you, and Sent you the job of traveling all over the world!!! 🏺🙅👳💂👪🙌👱👵👶💆👯💜💛💚💙💖
“Oh wow!” Let’s me know this food touched the creases of your soul 😂Mark you are such a beautiful soul. This Senegalese series has been fantastic. Thank you.
Mark, I could not wait for you to go to Senegal 🇸🇳. Women can cook. My aunt married a Senegalese man. I enjoyed going visited them for delicious 😋 meals .
I love how she constantly invokes the name of God before she does anything. “Bismillahi rahmani rahiim” or “in the name of Allah, the most gracious, the most merciful”
I love how kind and respectful mark is To Other Cultures.If Everyone was A little more Like mark,Maybe The world Would be a better place ! I'm from Pakistan 🇵🇰
Lookt this African queen! How she's beautiful! Her smile Lightning my day and i'm pretty sure her Yassa Poulet meal is tasty, the way i'm seeing matk enjoying the meal prove it to me! 😋
That chicken looks sooooo amazing! I don't have to taste it to know it's incredibly delicious but I very much do wanna taste it me & my stomach. I so much wish I can just be with Mark in at least one dining adventure I will literally pay him good money to make it happen. Keep it up Mark! You're a amazing virtual tour guide & deserves the best of success. Cheers mate 🍻🍛
I luv Senegal! So far all the foods and all those onions interest me a lot in Senegal. Have you done one in Tambacounda? Drum beats was a good way to end this one.thank you Mark & Pape for taking us there..a really must visit country!
This is a northern Senegal Yassa recipe. This recipe originates from Southern Senegal. You marinate the chicken overnight with 2 lemons and 1 or 2 of the peppers that Mark likes so much (cut into pieces and seeds taken out). One does not add mustard or vinegar but more lemon juice from two more limes. Total for a chicken yassa, you need 4 limes or lemons. The rest of the cooking is about the same way they do it in southern Senegal, except that to my knowledge there are no baobab fruits added to the sauce or in eating.
I love how kind and respectful Mark is to other cultures. If everyone was a little more like Mark, maybe the world would be a better place.
Sure and his hosts tend to love him too
Why shouldn’t he be kind thoughtful? That’s perfectly normal behavior when you’re in someone’s territory? He’s not special 🙃
@@Nell654
If it was perfectly normal behavior the world wouldn't be as aggressive as it is.

Luckily, Islam is the main religion in Senegal too, so 97% of food is halal

5:21 "Bismillah-ir-Rahman-ir-Rahim (The prayer in Islam to behing any task, which is said in Arabic: "in the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Ever Merciful".) Senegal is a predominantly Muslim country, and Islam has a big effect on their culture, food, and mentality too. Most of West Africa is Muslim, except the southern 1/3 of Nigeria, the southern 1/2 of Ghana, and some of the other southern halves of the coastal states between there and Liberia. Its one of those places people don't seem to associate with Islam in the West or Far East, but its very much part of the Muslim World.
Marks video are so relaxing and remind you of the good things around the world. Thank you Mark

Mark, I could not wait for you to go to Senegal 🇸🇳. Women can cook. My aunt married a Senegalese man. I enjoyed going visited them for delicious 😋 meals .
Watching her work so methodically is such a peaceful experience for us, the viewers.
I love how she constantly invokes the name of God before she does anything. “Bismillahi rahmani rahiim” or “in the name of Allah, the most gracious, the most merciful”

She is soo pretty. I am loving this series showcasing part of my continent's food culture.
That chicken looks sooooo amazing! I don't have to taste it to know it's incredibly delicious but I very much do wanna taste it me & my stomach. I so much wish I can just be with Mark in at least one dining adventure I will literally pay him good money to make it happen. Keep it up Mark! You're a amazing virtual tour guide & deserves the best of success. Cheers mate 🍻🍛
I luv Senegal! So far all the foods and all those onions interest me a lot in Senegal. Have you done one in Tambacounda? Drum beats was a good way to end this one.thank you Mark & Pape for taking us there..a really must visit country!
SO happy to see Mark eating with his right hand only, so important in this culture (and many others)!
This is a northern Senegal Yassa recipe. This recipe originates from Southern Senegal. You marinate the chicken overnight with 2 lemons and 1 or 2 of the peppers that Mark likes so much (cut into pieces and seeds taken out). One does not add mustard or vinegar but more lemon juice from two more limes. Total for a chicken yassa, you need 4 limes or lemons. The rest of the cooking is about the same way they do it in southern Senegal, except that to my knowledge there are no baobab fruits added to the sauce or in eating.
I watch Marc just prior starting to cook, he is such an authentic food lover ahhhh!
If only I can orb into Senegal this moment. 😩
The food is just spectacular.
The lady is adorable! Such a sweet smile. The dish looks delicious and I’m gonna try making this. Love from 🇱🇰
I hope people of Senegal realize that they are blessed with their country. Do take care of your own country.
I loved this Episode Senegal has a rich and beautiful culture, Diana is very welcoming and very beautiful ...more love from Kenya
