🥒 ABOUT BEFRS:
Hey, I’m Sonny! I’m from the US but I’ve been living in Asia for 10 years and started making food and travel videos to document my experiences. 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.

Hey guys, do you check your FB msgs?
I will not support a racist
Egypt is technically a part of Africa and Asia. Just a heads up bro.
Let's be honest, this is be biggest bit of PR Apple could ever get, a whole documentary shot in 4K on an iPhone? The quality is fantastic!
Probably sponsored by Apple.
Lmao, they have editing software in their laptops before uploading this video. So stop it. 🤦🏻♀️😅
Yes Apple phones have those qualities
@@user-hx7dt6vb8f That changes nothing about it being shot with a phone though. Footage quality doesn't get magically better by editing, it get chopped up, color corrected and maybe add some stabilization if needed.
Yeah that is why iphone are expensive.
I seriously think what pissed off the authorities the most is the fact that you chose to hang out with the locals to get a real feel of the city - which ultimately reflected the level of poverty and dilapidation of the infrastructure, something they're trying to hide - instead of going to the pristine beaches of Sharm El-Sheikh or the perfectly polished millionaire neighborhoods in New Cairo where many tourists choose to visit. I have to say it takes a lot of courage to do what you did. Hats off to you, sir!
as an Egyptian i must say that this is accurate as fu*k
Nothing to do with police trying to hide stuff. Many of them are also poor and living in bad areas. A lot of them don't like their own government. Everyone knows that Cairo is a bit of a slum city, even in tourist areas, so I don't see why they would be hiding what we already know. The Arab Spring was 12 years ago now. The protests stopped several years ago and people are getting on with life.
The honest truth is that white, Christian, westerners are just seen as suspicious, with bad intentions and morals, so they kind of look down on us. If you aren't a regular, money spending tourist going to the Red Sea or Pyramids, then they will be suspicious. Sure they want you to spend western money, but they don't like you and act suspicious of you because of your ethnicity, religion, culture etc. It is similar in many Middle-eastern Muslim countries. I have also experienced the same thing in Tunisia, Turkey, Lebanon, Iran etc. If anything the authorities are ultimately trying to facilitate a bribe from you, as they know you have money. Like they don't respect you.
Obviously there are many good Egyptians who don't care about any of that, but a large portion of the country sees it this way. It is partly due to culture but mostly due to Islam. I noticed it with a lot of people in Sharm El-Sheikh, except for the actual hotel workers. A lot of shop owners, tour operators and taxi drivers are rude, inconsiderate and look down on you. They act different to their 'brothers' though.
That’s so sad. Sonny visited all the dilapidated markets in India, which is where you get the amazing street food of India. And showed poor, kind and delicious India at its finest and most friendly side
Awesome comment!! Perfectly said, my friend 🤗💓
The police want bribe money. That’s why they are harassing the film crew.
This was a huge misstep by the Egyptian government. This was a chance for outsiders to understand and empathize with their culture and they totally fumbled it. Great job Sonny! You never stopped trying to show the food and give the people a chance to share their culture and tell their story. Thank you Ibrahim and friends for being so welcoming.
I hear they do this to a lot of turist
Another fake account. This guy had a bad experience because he wanted to go around filming everyone without their permission, and they wouldnt allow it. He needs to realize hes a youtuber not royalty.
If you mean the host then you are about as braindead as a rock, they took his filming stuff before he ever filmed anything if you watched anything you'd have seen that. But I assume if it is the host you mean, you are spewing hot air. @@vinny4149
I find it funny that Sonny's experience in Somalia was far more positive than his in Egypt. A lot of things went horribly wrong.
@@vinny4149 Prove it.
I love how openly critical he is when there are things to criticize. That makes it so much more than just a food show. The guy could do wonderful documentaries about different cultures.
Thats why we love sonny
He did it for the views..his other content doesnt havr millions of views. This RANT made him a lotta money!
Bs, he did it because he's blunt and honest. So what if he got views and made money. This is his job and that money supports him as well as his team of people. I say good for him.
@@Fiola_M their is nothing to rant on other vidoes LOL and even me will Rant if that happens to me.
@@Fiola_M found the egyptian bootlicker
As a woman, visiting egypt, the hostility was appalling. I did not feel safe and I would never return - even if I was paid to do so!
Same here. I visited with my mother and sister and we agreed to never ever go back.
Please come to South Africa you won't be disappointed 🙏
@@JuicyJLee I'm South African, lol.
It always surprises me to hear that bc I moved there and started working there and I took public transportation every day and walked everywhere everyday and tbh I lived in the ghetto of Giza near Haram Street and I’m white k and I had a very basic standard live and not for one day I have witnessed that kind of stuff… only once, at the pyramids. They were annoying but that’s it, nothing to rlly even think about. What about you?
You can always have bugers in the states
The police wanting to delete footage of Egypt's beautiful culinary culture is quite shocking. That's the kind of thing that makes the country unique and would impact tourism in a positive way.
Exactly, it seemed really bizarre to me. But I'm not from there, never been there and would not understand I suppose.
Egypt has so much history heritage things that happened there thousands of years that should be of interest to all not to hide it under the rug like something bad is going on I'll probably there is but show what the country could offer so people can enjoy the true meaning of Egypt how foolish
Tsek they must be proud of it and show to the world thier culture, they really need the tourism for thier country...
@@fitantonie What are you talking about, the remains and artifacts of Ancient Egypt that people go to see have nothing to do with the current Arab population. So no wonder they don't care about the culture bcs it is not theirs.
as for the culinary, nothing fancy because all of the food you can just get it from dubai of UAE , but the way this SOnny make it fun is the one that make me feel he is a real food commentator, love his energy.
Taking Egypt off my bucket list! Thanks for the great video!
He shoot in the poorest places, you don't have to go there
(you can visit, tahrir, zamalek, new cairo, or even Aswan it is less crowded and more unique
I Hate what our corrupted government did. But also I don't know why he went to the most poor and crowded place here!!!
@@AmanyAhmed210 The government constantly tracking cameras is more than enough of a reason to be suspicious of staying in Egypt. No matter if you go to the poor or rich areas

I went to holiday in Egypt a few years ago. I planned my holiday for two weeks. We left early and came home after four days. I will never go back there again. I had a horrible experience. So sad because I dreamed of going to Egypt since I was a kid. I hope it changes in the future. But the whole time I was there, I couldn’t relax.
omg why what hapeened?
Care to explain what happened?
Ok,,,,,,,,so what happened
Egypt it's the worst holiday place that I had in whole entire life. It was really, really, really bad. Everything. 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
I never expected or seen sunny that frustrated in my life. I stayed in Egypt for around a year and I confirm that you can develop serious amount of stress over the corruption and dealing with many thieves etc
I agree, I just wanted to go home 😢 it’s sad tho.
Whi the fak is sunny? You mean Sonny??
That's too bad. I've always wanted to go to Egypt, but now thinking twice about it. Many people have warned me against it. What a shame there is so much corruption, as it looks like such a fascinating place to be. The culture, the food, the people, the scenery. They would make more $ if they weren't trying to scam it. More people would want to come.
@@ATLTraveler what the hell is whi the fak?? You mean who the f**k??
@@SRB57 no I mean whi the fak, learn to read bud.
I just went to Egypt a few months ago. As a woman and since I was not filming any documentary, I had no problems with police or anything of the sort, but the constant demanding of money for absolutely no reason is a huge problem. And yes, a lot of people whose job is to work with tourists are terrible at working with tourists!
Someone commented above that some of the rules have changed since this was filmed.
@@Sassyglbeauty what does that have to do with Katherine's comment?
As an egytian i say “bitches come!!” We love the bitches. Thankings to you bitches!
i am sorry it's true i can't say it's not sadly it is, they are scammers but for sure not all Egyptians like this
@@StefanCreatessnotty cow
I'm not going to lie, watching the way the camels were treated was heartbreaking. They are living beings with real feelings, they feel pain and fear. They should be treated with more respect & shown decency & mercy even if their destination is your plate.
Yes but no, when it comes to camels they are stubborn. They should be treated better but not that good
I’m sure they are stubborn because they don’t want to be pushed and tied and beat by people.
@@heyim3bood998what kind of a statement is that lmao I’d like you see you hobbling on one leg while someone beats you with a stick and see if you’ll still be stubborn lol
I am a cattle farmer and also found it heartbreaking. Those poor animals were being abused.
Mu$lims dont care..
I've never had anxiety in my life ! I even thought people who do are exaggerating! UNTIL I VISITED EGYPT! I was sooo excited to visit and when I got there I couldn't wait to leave! I even went to the airport 6 hours before my flight as I wanted nothing to do with cairo anymore. from the second you land in Egypt you are surrounded by scammers and beggars they are rude, ruthless and aggressive. I have to say that this is specifically in cairo and major cities like luxor if you visit less crowded areas you will have better and more genuine interactions with locals like the ones I had with the amazing and super friendly Bedouin people of Siwa and those of the Wahat area (black white desert) and the humble nubians of abu simble!
Same! Loved the Nile cruise and the tour group really protected us from all the hustlers and insanity. Otherwise it was so anxiety producing so stressful that we cut our trip short and spent the rest of our vacation in France 😢
Love Nubians. Hope they are doing fine.
I feel so bad for Nubians for living in such a horrible country surrounded by demons.
Anywhere cities are like that
I wish I saw this video before I went to Cairo from 🇮🇪 got my stuff stolen and was forced to be recorded and praise the police and say that my stuff was lost through my own fault. Pure corruption
wow! planning to visit there but looks scary
damn im sorry that happened
That's utter rubbish and totally unbelievable; does not square with anything I know about Egypt.
@@a.nefertiti6980And yet its believable compared to most peoples experiences with police.
Religion is ruining the country of Egypt, one religion in particular that supports terrorism all across the modern world.
Hi, I am Egyptian and completely agree with every word mentioned in this series, you are totally right and I would like to thank you for revealing these facts, you might be aware that your videos made huge discussions in social media, came across the popular talk shows in Egypt and it raised public awareness. you really made a difference and I hope next time you visit Egypt you will find the change you wanted. these videos are obvious example of the size of huge influence that youtubers can make. Also it worth mentioning that I think your local producer was incompetent, he did not tell your team about the security situation, he did not warn you that drones and walki talkie devices are forbidden, He put your team under unnecessary tremendous dangers and he was unable to defend you against authorities properly. I am sure you chose the wrong person.
the Egyptian tourist guide who was wearing a gray suit was telling people in the background to move or don't show urself in the camera lmao. when they were in the restaurant, he told the couple who were eating to move to another table. Egypt is so fake. the police were telling to capture only beautiful photos
@@cloudninetyseven Thanks for calling my country fake 🖕
@@koantao8321 if approached in the right way? These guys did nothing wrong but the police were always on their case. I'll be honest, this has deterred me from ever wanting to go to Egypt :(

I was going to go to Egypt but now hell no
I went to Egypt once i faced the same issues and scams in big touristic places but the local people are very kind and the food is unique it's bad to see a good culture and people get covered by such corruption and system issues
All i will say, for someone who went through hell and back - literally took me days to complete watching this as i was so tensed up thinking of the experience. You truly shot the lights out, made the best of it and shared the real raw footage. Thank you! What a show!
SIT TF DOWN
This report is just amazing. In all the years I've been watching you, I've never ever ever seen you go off like this, despite all previous struggles. Well done.
The US authorities also treat people visiting from many countries such as this one and other similar ones quite badly. I am born and bought up in the US, but I know the human rights violations in my own country.I wish we Americans can improve ourselves to become better human beings and not discriminate.
@@ronalds271 You must be kidding me.
They get free schooling, discount on college, health care, easy entry to America (we have seen this in recent years)
Yet nationals have to work so hard for something given to foreigners basically for free.
I beg to differ.
Foreigners, especially Americans, are treated like royalty in Egypt because it’s a money thing. They think Americans are all rich.
I’ve visited Egypt many times and lived there and not once had a problem and never knew anyone to have problems.
Of course this video is an example of a rare occurrence which we all know nothing is 100%

@@andrewquigley8938 The joke really flew over your head?
@@thamotive2430 Look who I was replying too. Other than that I have no idea what you're talking about
My family and I just left Egypt about a month ago. We stayed for two weeks. The sites were beautiful, and I enjoyed a lot of the food, but I got tired of it after a while. I hated having to be so assertive with people. My husband had to get very stern because they kept trying to sell us stuff or badger us for tips. We had a tour Guide. They kept us safe. There were moments when the police had to get involved with the people getting aggressive, and my husband had to get aggressive too.
Dang, thats an insane story
It’s typical I think more so in African countries maybe? I had similar experiences in Kenya and South Africa.
No its about poverty. Culture of course plays a role because not all countries with major poverty issues are this extreme. But most have this issue. @@philipwilliams7947
@@philipwilliams7947Naah idk where in Kenya or South Africa you went but they have the most friendly environment for tourists🤔
@@yellowmellow7748 i dont think you are understanding. Maybe a translation issue. But street sellers were in fact, obnoxious and aggressive in their tactics. Mombassa and Cape town is where I was. Im talking the street vendors who sell things. People are nice, but those people were pretty much straight up rude.
My family is from El Salvador and a lot of the dishes shown today, even with the salad drink are so similar with Egyptian food. It really makes you wonder how much recipes have been introduced ,changed and tweaked. It makes you wonder how all these dishes started.
i always felt that sonny had something other food review shows didn’t. he does his research, asks around, and with the information he gets he educates his viewers instead of just eating ‘exotic’ food. i love that he shows a lot of background and history on the culture of the places he visits, it feels very genuine and connective. he shows what’s behind the scenes, the real parts of places he visits. many shows don’t do this, or the media only wants to portray their country a certain way, but the fact is that seeing the true parts of countries is beautiful. adding on he actually cares about his team and is inclusive.
Exactly🎉❤
And he's not FAKE. I swear the amount of shows in which presenters look like they're in a zoo not a different country and just go around with stupid fake smile on their maw saying "mmm MMMMMMM" at every little thing is too much.
Like 'Food Ranger'. Yes, I just watched him yesterday and he annoyed me greatly. Stupid shill.
Thanks for being authentic Sonny. Very rare nowadays unfortunately.
He does his research?????
I had the same thought. From the beginning of the video I was like wow did none of them research anything before deciding to go??? They could've at least known not to go at the TIME they did. Sheesh.
On behalf of all the Egyptians, I come to you with regret that you were subjected to this treatment that does not satisfy any of us or even expresses us as Egyptians, and we thank you and your teams for completing the filming and showing this beauty in this video despite these circumstances. God willing, your opinion will change and you will come to visit Egypt again, especially Alexandria.
Totally Agree, Alexandria is a very peaceful place. Aswan also are welcoming place.
I am empathise with all the crew, but I am sure thet the local producer is the reason why he faced all of this problems.
@@TheEsraa10 He doesn't need a local producer he needs Houdini to come back to life and get him away from those drooling crowds of people(the police being one of them).
@@rand0m0mg It is not true, if there is a honest and professional local producer all of that would not happened.
Please see another review in deeper travel he had a very good experience in Egypt
@@TheEsraa10 Because a honest and professional producer would not bring him to that place?
I think you miss the point. There is an glaring problem right in front of us and you still can't see it?
Egypt has a toxic mob culture. A good producer would just bring him away from Egyptian people into places with less Egyptian people. Isn't that pretty sad?
@@TheEsraa10 There are much larger and more densely populated cities than Cairo and there you won't get mobbed by a bunch of people demanding money from you.
If I were you I'd leave the country the minute my gear was taken. You had a very strong will and determination and courage to stick to what you started out to do, which was very brave and impressive. I was planning to go to Egypt alone but I gave up after I saw your videos. Country with this amount of corruption does not deserve money from tourists despite the fact that most local people are nice and friendly, I believe.
I am a Greek Egyptian born in Suez and lived in Ismailia until we had to leave due to Abdel Nasser that started kicking out the Christians from 1956 so my father mother and sister fled Egypt and Migrated to Australia in 1962. I was only 8 years old but I do remember how beautiful Egypt was and this video brings back wonderful memories and after all these years I still declare I am a proud Greek Egyptian and think of Egypt every day. Thank you for taking me to my homeland. 🥰
Most Egyptians were deported from the canal region due to the 1956 war with Israel Britain and France not just Christians Egypt still has the most Christian pop in middle east
You are half Greek half Egyptian but declare just the one half of your heritage as your homeland. Thats hilarious! XD
The fact is, as a μιξεδ person you dont have ONE homeland though.
Gosh sorry for your family. How can they do that 😢😢
Coptic Christians are leaving Egypt in droves due to terrorist attacked against them, and discrimination also.
@@aetherion7 you forget Egypt has had a Greek population since the Seleucids.
I just came back from Egypt. From the moment I arrived, they tried to steal from me. The currency exchange teller at the airport gave me the wrong exchange. I got stopped but customs and they wanted a bribe. Once I got to the hotel, they had the wrong room. I reserved a room with pyramid views and they didn’t have it once I got there. I was constantly harassed and couple of times the skimmers got in my face trying to intimidate me into tipping them or buying their services. I didn’t - stood my ground but could’ve escalated. Walked j to a store close got here pyramids and the owner closed one of the doors while I was inside. I’ve travel all over and I’ve never felt so uncomfortable traveling abroad. Will never go back. ✌️
Omgod they really did u dirty😭 u should have stayed in more expensive places , locals r like that
...sounds like an awesome holiday! Go back there soon...Man everyone knows these things, you had to go there to find out? What's wrong with Italy, Portugal, Spain...etc? They are excellent countries, a lot cleaner and people "Rip you off" in a more civilized manner...they wait for you to go to their restaurants! ; )

Thanks for showing this side of Egypt. Went there in 2015 and will never go back. Cairo was a headache where you have to keep an eye out for pickpockets, beggars, and thieves. The pyramids? Every vendor there was running a scam and they'd get upset if you tried questioning their methods and prices and law enforcement are all on their side no matter what. It was a beautiful country, but a lot of the people that I encountered were all about how they were going to get their money and that's it.

Dear Egyptian Police and Government, The footage at the bakery was amazing and lovely. The other places shown make me want to visit your country and get food at these same places and these people were lovely. Have a wonderful day!
❤
I have been there twice. I was harassed many times, whistled at, hissed at. It stopped the second i started to wear a headscarf. That says a lot i think. And constantly being seen as a wallet. Tunesia was even worse. Never again.
Just found your channel. Enjoyed every minute of this. I came here after watching your adventures in Lebanon. Great work to all who contribute and produce.
Please please please go to Turkey. I am now going with you to the Yucatan upon next watch. The food down there blew my mind right down to dried mango on a stick with a baggie of chili spice to dip them in
Thank you for what you are doing. The Lebanon video showed that you are not just a food vlogger but a great humanitarian. Thanks again :)
My brother and his wife love to travel, and have the finances to do it. 5 years ago they went to go see the Pyramids and told me it was THE WORST WEEK OF THEIR LIVES. He's very generous, but said he was constantly hounded and intimated at every shop, eatery, service they had.
Majority of the world isnt white people so when you travel outside europe or north america you stick out like a green ballon in a sea of pink. Wear shitty clothing no flashy shit and look poor
Probably I will never go there ,beside the poor hygiene in food preparation I will not eat anything ,can you imagine if you get sick there will be a nightmare.

I was literally heart broken in Egypt … a life time dream was shattered ! That country deserves the best and truly has got the short end of the stick !😢😢😢
Thank you for your sincerity and open discussion! Loved the opening statement
I love your show!!! This one was eye opening and beautiful. I think that the way the filming went suits its content and does a perfect justice to the strong people of Eqypt with an amazing host. The great combination of food and culture made with a sparce helping of an incompetent producer paired with couple of dangerous dashes of uncivilized treatment from overzealous police was the perfect recipe for an epic episode.
The residents that were encountered seemed genuinely friendly and it’s so sad the government has made their country unvisitable for everyday tourists. I would love to go there someday and see the sights and meet the people, but this video put too much fear in my heart. God bless🙏🏼♥️🙏🏼
Egypt is one of the places I've wished to travel to but after watching this I honestly don't want to anymore. Thanks for such an interesting and informative documentary Sonny and crew! So glad you guys made it out there safe!
Actually no, I don’t know what happened to that guy but Egypt is normal to visit
@@alibassiouny6186 Don't Lie!
I would advice you to go with an experienced travel company or group. Otherwise if you go solo you will be frustrated and disappointed. Talking from experience.
SAME! It was one of my bucket list places along with Israel. After recent years and knowing ppl from there and what they tell me happens there, fuck no.
@@alibassiouny6186 maybe it's normal for you when you are Egyptian or look similiar, but hell no Egypt is WORST place for a tourist to visit 🤦🏻♂️😂😂
Thats something about farmers all over the world. No matter who you are, where you come from, or what religion you practice, you will always have a place at their table eating the food they work so hard to raise/produce. Bless these men and I hope they are healthy.
I am Egyptian and the way they treated the camels is haram -forbidden in Islam - and totally disgusting,it happens alot and it makes you really angry.
Lool
As an amateur filmmaker, I actually love the feel of this video. The lack of depth of feel makes the story more related to “a phone film look” that we are more familiar with. It makes the whole story resonate with additional rawness and authenticity.
Love that despite the fact this was filmed with the phone, your crew didn’t use it as an excuse to lack composition and dynamism .
This has to be one of my favorite documentaries you guys ever shot despite the odds and challenges you guys faced in the making of it.
I hope someone high up in the Egyptian government sees this and makes some changes. Egypt is certainly off my visit list.
Yeah dont go. I got stopped at gun point when I went on my first day. Somebody else I knew was given back the wrong passport. The people are generally fine except for the scammers. But the army and govt are the worst to exist
Unfortunately the government there is very corrupt. Any country that is mostly Islamic is full of chaos, corruption, and violence.
Good! It's a hellhole islamic mess.
The government apparently allows photography now because of these videos by Sonny.
Narrator: "they didn't"
thank you for this vid sir.. the people of Egypt seem very nice but also chaotic at times. not because of what i saw you went thru, Egypt is not a country that i would ever visit BUT am curious about and thanks to your journey, i was able to lived vicariously with u as i watch. once again thank you.
super awesome episode. i love your work. I was a fan before but now I am hooked 😅
I went to the Pyramids last summer and it was the most UNDERWHELMING experience! From the stench in the area surrounding the pyramids, to the camel poop next to the pyramids, to the constant harassment by "guides" & vendors, to the empty, naked tomb inside the pyramid....Honestly, I never want to go back, just needed to take it off my bucket list.
I hope you know does tombs were emptied by Europeans so it's not like they deliberately tricked ppl to come around ...may be if this selfish thieving white people stop stealing from people of colour there will more exciting things to look forward to
I felt exactly the same! Everybody there wanted to rip you off, just the second they saw you‘re a Tourist. I‘ve had a lot of unpleasant encounters with the locals in Kairo but also Hurghada. Sadly. The only thing in Egypt that you can do without any problems or harassment, is, just staying in your hotel all the time.
I will never go back there again..
Ok fair, but of course the tomb would be empty... it's well know that it has been repeatedly looted within the millennia.
did u fall in love with an Arab guy?
As a half Egyptian I apologize that you had to go through such a thing with authorities they tend to treat everyone with a lack of respect, aside from that I hope you enjoyed our cuisine and you found the locals sweet and respectful!
As a 1/5 egyptian I apologize for my half egyptian apologizing
@@AkimboSwords why? Because Qasayed has standards and wants his/her people to be known for their qualities and is horrified at the poor treatment of a guest?
If you don't want visitors then close down your borders. Otherwise have respect for travelers.
I'll
@@AkimboSwords I guess you think you’re funny ?
New subscriber, enjoyed the documentary ❤ thank you ❤️
I’m an Egyptian and I used to live in Egypt. In 2014 I was visiting my family and I saw something in the mall that I thought my gf at the time would like. So I took my phone out to take a picture of the item to send her a picture and you would think the people working the store thought I pulled out a gun… that being said, I can only imagine the misery they had to go through with all of their filming equipment. Not sure what they’re problem is with people taking pictures…
Every RUclipsr that has gone to Egypt always has to deal with scumbags and scammers
The natives too have to go through hell in that Godforsaken place
That's why I won't go there anymore. It's such a turn off when another man begging me for money.
Not just RUclipsrs. Everyone.
Not true. I have been vlogging here in Egypt 2 years and I never had a problem with the police 🤷🏾♀️
@@matrellonamission They probably only pick on tourists who stand out, you look like you could be a native. Those with European genetics would definitely not be considered a native.
Dude I really envy your life, you are blessed to be going to different countries, witnessing different cultures, tasting different cuisines, and getting an in-depth understanding of the common humanity that we all share.

Travelled to 45+ countries so far… must say Egypt was the worst awful experience so far and I would never return. Beautiful country and history BUT the PEOPLE there just ruin all the experience and what this country has to offer. Cheating, mega scamming, being disrespectful, tips, tips, tips, harassment we saw it all. I will never go back to Egypt
Well, I wont be going to Egypt but thank you for such an enlightening and beautiful video. The food looks so good but with so many options in the world - no need to put myself in unnecessary stress. We tour to relieve stress and eat amazing local food. Thanks for taking one for the team Sonny.
exactly took the words out my mouth .
Even though I am a late watcher and commenter, I am actually surprised that you managed to film something this professional without required equipments. You did not really need to make this video, you could have left right after you lost your equipments, yet you still made this great and educating documentary. I am watching your content every day, good job!
Exactly!!
❤❤
The last guy that called him habibi is a genuine guy. I felt love for life just emitting from him through the screen. He alone changed my whole view a great deal on Egyptian culture and Egypt as a whole.
He didn't say Habibi. He was correcting Sonny by saying that his name is Azizi.
@@AdiAfendi no he called him habibi he corrected no one
What’s a habibi
Damn that teleport from Sonny on 10:58 really tripped someone. Your power is unbelievable. Hahaha!
I found your channel today researching for my trip, I hope for this December..Thx 😘
As i watched this, the last part with the people was amazing. People gathered around food, talking, and being friends. Amazing work and truly fun to watch. It shows how the people are much different than the authorities in most countries.
Let’s take a moment to appreciate Sonny and his hard work, especially during times like these. Bravo Sir 🙏🏽 👍
I’m really shocked, their culture, food, local people’s behaviors and faces are very similar to Iranian culture 😮 They don’t show any traces of ancient Egyptian culture or faces as written or depicted in history books!!!! Is this really Egypt??????
I grew up with no reservations. After Bourdain passed I've not found another travel film maker that i have found anywhere near the appreciation i have for your work and your teams work. Thank you. I've watched about ten videos since i saw you on JRE. Thank you for looking at food through culture, through truth and through humility. That's what made Anthony Bourdain the best. He was a humble guest, you are, too. Thank you! God bless
Bizarre foods was amazing as well. There was no better food shows than that and Anthony Bourdain
Bro this Guy IS NO WERE NEAR Anthony Bourdain’s level. Fuck me your standards are messed.
you have just put into words why I like Sonny's vids, I was absolutely saddened by Anthony Bourdain's passing and missing his brand of documentary making.
Sonny's style is very close to his while still being his own thing.
now that I figured that out... I'm enjoying it even more, thanks for that lightbulb moment dude
As an Egyptian, I apologize to you for what happened to you by the police, and I hope that you enjoyed the food and the company of the simple, kind Egyptian people.
This guy is amazing has a lot of people who watching his channel and he is famous. If he had put positive words towards Egypt, Egypt would have been the qualitative leap tourism ,Unfortunately, I'm sorry
@@amino-ac-vlogstv5539 Unfortunately the police treated him stupidly, so I apologized to him, I am an Egyptian citizen and completely reject what happened to him, and I wished that he would be treated better because Egypt is beautiful and he would have enjoyed it. It would have been fun for him had it not been for the wrong behavior of the police. The Egyptian people are generous and kind people to the fullest extent, and Egyptian food is one of the best foods in the world.
Once again, I apologize to him on behalf of the Egyptian people who reject what happened to them
Yeah i like it i am Egyptian to but thank you sooo mutch

this shows all they go through to be the best ever food review show ❤ very awesome thanks a lot
oh boy, my heart went out to those camels!! fantastic video. how did you get that final shot of the plane tail?!?!?! epic video I am excited to visit Egypt!
I had the same bad experience when traveled to Egypt, I love to shoot pictures and videos and I have decent gear, so I was so exited to take all my gear and shoot in Egypt. The moment I entered the airport I was treated like hostile person, I was locked for hours, questioned by all sort of police officers, and later was denied to take any of my gear with me. It was the worst experience I've ever had, they could easily say that cameras is not allowed instead of scaring the tourists this way. My other business trips to Egypt was always with one pair of jeans and few changes, phone charger and that's all. Stayed in hotel and never leave unless I was with escort of business partners. People are nice in general, but never figured why they hate cameras that much
Were you able to get back your gears?? When you go back home it's a bit unfair taking that from tourists..
@@PaNDa14KiiTTy yes I was able to reclaim all, however it wasn't clear how and if I was able to do that. I had to go to the airport with some friends who had some contacts and they managed to reclaim it. However they refused to handed over to me till I boarded the plain, and i had 2 police officers as escort. It felt like they are escorting most wanted person :). I wonder if i didnt have friends what would have happened???
@@FearMe.001 Glad you got it back lenses are not cheap and all but the way they treat tourist is absurd they work almost like North Korea.
In Cairo, I tried to take a picture of one of the news flyovers that had a mosque behind (the idea was to show the contrast between new and old). A woman run towards a cop and shouted to him him that I was taking pictures. The cop took my camera took my passport and all three went to a police van where the police officer repeated my terrible crime to his chief. This one called his chief at the police station, checked once again my passport, hold my camera and after more that twenty minute someone had the brilliant idea that if I erased the picture, the problem was over.
Same situation on the train to Iskandareya to Port Said when I tried to take a picture of a ship crossing the channel: here the good patriot was a soldier that wanted my camera, my passport and some money from me to say nothing to his chiefs. Fortunately there were police officers in the train and stopped him.
Same story at a humble wharf when I tried to take a picture of a boat that crosses the river in Damietta: here the patriots were the passengers that shouted angrily that it was mamnuah (forbidden).
Same story at the metro of Cairo, wher shooting pictures is a risky business too.
And I speak ameya and can make myself understood quite perfectly!
@@b.f.3329 in my experience, the correct amount of baksheesh would have averted all of this. That was pretty much all Egypt was about. Getting screwed as hard as possible. I would never go to North Africa again.
This must’ve been very stressful and at times frightening for your team. I’m sorry you guys went through that. I’ve always wanted to see Egypt since I was a kid, however, I don’t think I’ll be going any time soon. The authorities look absolutely awful to deal with. That being said, you guys did a phenomenal job filming this whole episode on nothing but an iPhone! Excellent work!

Rampant ignorance. For a country that has such history and origins, it's so ignorant.
Awesome video and content as always. Thank you for making this food documentary despite all the challenges with authority there.
This video just made my gout flare up by just watching it 😂, worth it though.
Thank you for specifically mentioning that Egypt is IN AFRICA and that these people are indeed AFRICAN…it really seems like there is always some attempt to separate the two. You were smart, cautious and resourceful! Thank you for bringing quality content.
Egyptians themselves do not identify as Africans...
Facts the continent looks like one big chunk😊
I’ve heard so many horror stories from people traveling to Egypt. Mostly of scamming and extremely rude people that want to take advantage of you instead of giving you good service. I would rather visit a country that respects tourism because it helps their economy
Sonny is the next Tony Bourdain. And I don't mean that compliment lightly. Those are some very big shoes to fill, and Sonny does it well. Kudos Sonny!
Yep, make the best of it because if you ever go back you'll definitely be jailed for your criticism. That being said this was a tremendous video
I'm glad that you made it out safe. Our visit to Egypt has been cancelled. We watched the whole series and it was an eye opener. The rudeness of those people asking for money and threating you and the crew was scary. The way they treated the camels was a no go for my daughter. So goodbye to Egypt!!
I just got back from a trip there a week ago and you really shouldn't cancel your trip because of what you saw. I mean not all Egyptian people are like *that*, and of course from a culture loving tourist's point of view, seeing the pyramids and all of the temples (in Luxor, Aswan, etc.), going to a bedouin village and riding a camel, and then having a 3-4 day rest in a resort on the beach in Hurghada or Sharm El Sheikh was magnificent and a totally worth it unforgettable experience.
@@eeespartak Of course, no sane person will say that Egyptians are 'bad people' but you do have to understand, your government being corrupt is more scarier than a scammer asking for money.
There are countless videos, articles and personal experience shared throughout all social media by many travelers who experienced all this. I would say that as long as you keep your head down, don't record, avoid the 'bad areas' and just go for the experience then you most definitely will be fine.
I hate to be "that guy" but all the politics and scummy producers aside if your daughter thinks that animals raised for food are treated any differently elsewhere in the world, including in the supposedly "enlightened" west, she's got a lot to learn. We just put it out of sight and out of mind. If you have the stomach for it just look up the documentary "Dominion" (Warning: I do mean if you have the stomach for it, this is not an exaggeration) that shows that if anything we're less humane because we have to mass produce the food, which means cutting corners in animal comfort and them being quick and cleanly dispatched. And this is coming from someone who still eats meat, I ain't even on some vegan crusade, I'm just pointing out that if anyone thinks this is only something "they" do they're dead wrong.
@@Goldenkitten1 Factory Farming is morally wrong, everyone can see that. Muslims are the 2nd biggest in terms of population and some of the biggest meat consumers, that is also known.
Islam prohibits anything other than Halal, we also know this.
Other religions don't care if their food is Halal or not but Muslims will not eat if theirs aren't.
Now look at the factory farming videos and tell me how they are dispatching the animals. I am not saying that the living conditions are also not sh*tty but their deaths are inhumanely painful.
Factory Farming is wrong and Halal is wrong.
@@rikumajumder1558 More or less what I said. That the animal suffers either way. My post was in reference to them saying their daughter couldn't handle how the camels were treated. But the reality is that it's no more humane here than it is there, we just hide it in shiny factories. "Out of sight, out of mind" and all that.
As a Mexican this is very interesting to watch, there are a lot of similarities in the food, the hawawshi are almost like what we call here "gorditas", then the bred with all those organs... like just put a tortilla instead and they turn into tacos de "tripa, cabeza, sesos" then the nefa it’s just like "barbacoa". Also our corrupt government sucks but the ppl are nice lol
The government wasn't that corrupt. But the Cartels sure did run Mexico with their narcotics and money derived from it.
Heck, they even kill police and other law enforcers like they kill chickens and pigs.
I'm half Egyptian (but raised by my single egyptian mom) and I date a mexican. The literal only difference is the variety of chiles you have, and that we don't eat pork

I got so nerdy and excited that we both thought it was awesome we both watch you. He told me that I gained “cool points!” 🎉😂❤
Naww your little story actually made my day
The monologuing over the video makes my heart sing
So sad that some group of authoritarians would ruin a culture that is thousands of years old.
I know a family who was traveling to South Africa to live, and they decided to stay over in Egypt. The husband had a camcorder in his luggage that he was bringing to a friend in S Africa. Well they detained him in the airport for hours as well and they confiscated the camcorder and their passports also for the entirety of their stay. This was in like 1985 or 86.
Wow as a Mexican, I can say you are right, the similarities in the food and the way they eat it are so similar, we also put lime on our dishes. I’ve always believe Mexican food has lots but lots of middle eastern influence, lamb and goat are very popular meats that we eat and personally my favorites. I’m so impressed 👍🏻 🇪🇬 🇲🇽 another crazy similarity is that Egypt and Mexico have pyramids 😳
And corrupt police. 😆

What I liked was locals agreeing that things were going wrong and discouraging tourism, rather than my country, South Africa, who'd immediately blame the tourists and tell them they don't need them and Not to return. 😢
Just as always, Sonny. another great video! It's always the leadership that ruins a Country. You have proven over and over that most people are good and nice. Not so much for their leaders.
I honestly found it so hard to be in Cairo when i was there in 2015. It was so much of a culture shock for me compared to other places in egypt
Here are a couple of interesting facts I thought I'd share:
Not just high-quality filming gear but even average cameras have been a big no-no here in Egypt for as long as I can remember and it only got worse after the Revolution and the amount of foreign coverage of it here. Authorities simply won't let you film anything here, especially in El Tahrir Square (for reasons too silly to mention) where the 2011 revolution started. Also, I found it interesting how the only pics and videos that the police forced you to "delete" (at least from what is shown in this video) are the ones you shot in the bread bakery. Bread in Egypt is not just the staple food carrier or "utensil" as Sonny called it; it holds a MAJOR political significance. In the revolution, the motto was literally translated to "Bread, Freedom, Social Justice". One of the motives for the breakout of the Revolution was how hard it got for people to attain bread which almost equals famine for Egyptians.
Anyway, glad you liked the food and I hope that the socio-political problems in Egypt get fixed asap because it would be a shame to see such a beautiful country with such a mind-blowing culture and history go to waste.

Thank you very much for this in-depth exploration of the true life of ordinary people in Egypt you got to experience for a bit along with dealing with corrupt officials. The people are clearly hospitable and glad to have lived it through this vid- new subscriber 💪🏼
The camel market brought tears to my eyes. Beautiful videography on y’all’s part, the crazy experience you had and insane things you went through were all talked about while showing the beautiful culture of a still beautiful place. Still the camels….
I had to stop watching at this stage 😱
I seriously think Sunny looked bad still going on with buying the camel. Aside from being overcharged, all the sellers were torturing their camels. It was completely sick to see how disrespectful they treat an animal that they use as mounts, specifically evolved for that disgusting country.
If I were him, I would have stepped in and stepped back out. Especially if I felt my filming team was in danger.
I get the show must go on, but sometimes its best to flip a country the bird and just walk away.
They're amazing creatures. You can see why they are the bedrock of so much of Bedouin society
