BRO!!!!! I'm born and raised in Chucktown and I'm so happy that whoever recommended these stops sent you to the real city spots. Most of these food shows/TH-camrs go to the tourist traps. My friend you are eating 100 percent authentic Black/African Charleston food. Everything you ate I grew up on. Much respect. I wish I knew you were in town, I would've stopped by and given you your props. Come back anytime
I'm a native of South Carolina. My peoples are from what we call the Low Country, although now I live in the Upstate. Thank you for featuring the Gullah food. Your video makes me want to call in sick to work and hit the road to Edisto Beach. The Low Country is Heaven, Brother Mark!
My homeee! This is awesome seeing a video about Charleston. I am from Addis, Ethiopia and was adopted and I have watched all your videos about Ethiopia and now seeing you do Charleston is just amazing! My heart is so happy :) I hope you had an amazing visit!
Wow, this food tour focusing on Gullah Geechee and soul food sounds absolutely amazing! The Gullah Geechee people have done a remarkable job preserving their West African culture, especially along the coast of the Carolinas. From their traditions to music and heritage, they have also managed to preserve their unique and delicious cuisine. I can already imagine the mouthwatering home-cooked food you'll be enjoying on this tour. From okra and stews to fried chicken and pigtail, every dish promises to be a delightful treat for the taste buds. And let's not forget about the rice and garlic crabs, which are sure to add even more flavor to the experience. I'm thrilled that you'll be sharing your food adventure through this video. It's a fantastic opportunity for us to vicariously enjoy all the delicious dishes and get a glimpse into the rich culinary traditions of the Gullah Geechee people. Bon appétit!
I love Mark’s videos in the US - there’s just something so special and beautiful about the content he makes when he’s here. The Carolinas are a must visit for every American, you’ve never had better food than in the south.
@@rubysangel5180 if I'm making one recommendation - it's Charleston - and visiting the islands off of Charleston and south. You must try the local soul food and seafoods, and specialty things like "she-crab soup." Do yourself a favor and drive, from Charleston to Savannah. Places like Seabrook, John's island, Kiawah, Folly, Edisto, and all the way down to Tybee Island in Georgia. It's 3-4 hours of slow driving, and you can almost pick any place to eat and you will be happy. I recommend driving along this route because it's so incredibly gorgeous and there's nowhere else on earth like it. You can take 2-3 days to make this drive, see the sights, and eat and you'll be so glad you did.
Mark, this video was terrific. Not only because that's where my family is from, but the way you enjoyed the food made it like I was almost there tasting it too.
My mother was from South Carolina and everything you’re eating was a part of my childhood. Red rice and the okra and tomatoes I really thought my mother made those up because none of my friends ate them. I miss my mother.
This is true with me as well, my mom born & raised in SC.. I myself born & raised in NY.. growing up she made everything I seen here. I especially love that damn red rice & sausages!!😋😋
Mark, thank you for showcasing the awesome food we have in South Carolina. Especially, the Low Country and bringing awareness to the Gullah Geechee food culture. It's nothing like it in the entire country and I could tell that you enjoyed every bite of it. You'll be back!!!
@@Samantha.86 you're tripping!!! These flavors are indicative of the freshness and supreme quality that coastal SC has. Every dish eaten on this episode is always imitated and never duplicated. Even the rice is special to the region. What other state grows rice??? I'll wait!!!!
@@jarodlee442 true, but the Country was initially built using SC rice. It was used as currency. The slave market was in favor of rice and was one of the initialized crops. It has heirloom rices from Africa that can't be duplicated by texture, flavor and uniqueness anywhere. The secret??? Low Country rice were grown in brackish waters right of the coast making them preseasoned with sea salt. Arkansas can't and will never replicate that.
@@Samantha.86 yeah because the foodways come from SC. Most people don’t know that most dishes like seafood boils, which we call frogmore stew in SC, shrimp and grits, red rice and so on originate from here and eventually they spread to other places. But to his point, it’s nothing like it here. So authentic.
Mark, thanks for stopping by S.C. to show the world some of the tasty Gullah foods. Enjoyed the segment and will visit when I'm in the area. Hello Micah and Ying!!
As a native, great job on your choices. The restaurants you’ve visited so far are true local favorites. Y’all researched well. If you need any recommendations on tours, or literature on the culture I’ll be happy to oblige. Thanks.
Many a time he bumps into local folk who recognize him and they offer him recommendations. Just like in one of his Laos vids a dude kept poking his face into the camera and said "I know you!" Next thing you know he is in the vid with Mark next day at a recommended food joint.
What a life your son is getting to experience following his dad around the world, learning about history, culture, people, foods… does Micah speak multiple languages like you?
Hey Mark, could you make a top 5 or top 10 of the best meals you ate since you started your channel??? I bet most of your viewers would be very curious to know that!!!
Exactly! Appears he has to like everything to satisfy business owners. If he told the truth people wont invite him to record... big reason why I think.
Remind me to NOT visit a place like "Hannibal's", where they are so "QUANG", they wouldn't go out of there way to seat Mark and his family nor be on camera. 😡
Another amazing video . Never fails to get my appetite for adventure and food going! Love seeing you always supporting the small businesses & getting the word out . Some people only do over the top luxury places or buffets ,but we can count on you to show us the true meaning of soul food in any country or cuisine 🙏🙏💚
One good thing about Mark's videos is that when he visits your home town, your country and tried foods that you have eaten, you can get an........."empathetic gauge" of how other people's food taste around the world. For instance when he had that fried shark, I also envision him eating Bake and Shark from Trinidad & Tobago 🇹🇹, which I know he loved. This was a great vid, yet again... OOHHH WOWWW!!!
The meals have great flavor and the texture color helps the meal,the crab, and the okra with sauce on white rice.there’s history in making great food and you know how to find the right balance in places to have a healthy delicious meal.
That fried chicken looks sooooooo good! The turkey wing is also intriguing, but I’m used to seeing them smothered in brown or yellow gravy with yellow rice 👀 Growing up, okra stew was with beef roast and cornbread. I was surprised the rice with the fish looks like jollof!!!!! 🤌🏾 Yummmmm
I love how you go to every corner of the world Mark and bring awareness to the African origins of American food culture. Kudos to you....don't stop what you're doing.
I’m just stunned… the vibrancy of the tomatoes… the crispy and juiciness of the chicken… the creaminess of the macaroni and cheese… the fragrancy of the rice…
Mark, your videos are always a highlight of my day. I love seeing you explore different cuisines and share your experiences. Can't wait for your next video!
Yep, but remind me to NEVER visit a place like "Hannibal's", where they are so "QUANG", they wouldn't go out of there way to seat Mark and his family nor be on camera. 😡
I never got my smell and taste back after Covid 3 years ago. Watching you enjoy all of these foods really is awesome to see. God Bless you and your family Mark.
@@careyscates3516 You laugh over Covid? Really? My brother died of Covid, he was 47 years of age. Left two young kids and a younger wife. Some fun, huh 😒
Next time I'm in S.C. visiting my family, I'm requesting they take me to visit these wonderful places so I can try all of these wonderful foods. Thanks Mark for visiting my late mother's birth state and highlighting the Gullah Geechie food culture.
I was so excited to see you featured Hannibal's!! I lived directly across the street in the apartments you can catch a glimpse of. So happy to see that they have revamped and are still thriving. I went here at least 3-5x a week when I was there and everyone was always so warm and welcoming.
Micha got the other side of life traveling and seeing different cultures. I got the side of playing with friends and family. Friends from childhood are a treasure that I'm still blessed to have. Pick your choice..
With my mother from Orangeburg SC...her side of the family introduce me to liver pudding at my early age of live...I tell u that stuff changed my life....all I want now at the age of 43 is pudding grits and eggs...
@@beats4life971 No she was right. The Caribbean came first. We had the slave trade first. The Europeans landed in the Carib in 1492 and landed in the US in the 1600's or so.
@charlottecamila2859 it's a mixed. when they landed in the Caribbean's they had no slaves. They Conquer the Indigenous. The frist slaves port was South carolina and virginia.
Well Mark: overall, those 3 stops were certainly a super foodie trip. Again, this is a unique cuisine pasted down thru generations located in SC & Georgia! I think my favorite dishes were the turkey leg & the the garlic crabs!
Hi Mark, I watched every episodes of your Peru food tours when I was preparing my Peru trip. I wrote down pages of notes and information about different ‘must try’ food items from your show. Due to Covid travel restrictions, my trip was canceled. When restrictions are lifted, I went to Tahiti instead because Peru was experiencing political instability, not safe to visit. I really enjoy watching your appreciation of food, make eating a piece of dry lumber seemed so tasty.
Mark one of my favorite times to watch you videos is when I'm eating. I often wish I'm eating what you are eating on your trips. I am loving watching this amazing food! I take the red rice and fish!!!
Mark has had a special place in my heart for at least the past 5 years. The only thing I am consistently questioning myself is: when Mark is eating and giving the amazing food reviews, are Mark’s wife and son waiting for him to finish before starting to eat or do they get their own food?
I grew up there. I've only been back for a couple quick visits. What I appreciate about this is that you're not going to the posh downtown tourist restaurants. You're going to places the locals go. Probably saving yourself a ton of cash too. My guess is you're saving close to $30 a plate without missing any of the flavor of low country food.
South Carolina is my father’s home land I am Geehee. These are the food of my family. My father was a chef and an amazing cook! Thank you for sharing !
Wow, I just love this channel.... southern food is so good albeit I grew up in the Great Northwest (San Francisco, & Oregon), and I've been exposed to a variety of different foods. I was introduced to this channel by a friend about 2 yrs ago.
Pro move how Mark decided to sit hanging out the side of the car. Avoided the sun and the picture quality was sick. Mark is a seasoned pro and you see it with every pre editing and post editing decisions he makes. Props
Oh wow! Featuring my wonderful Geechee Hometown Charleston SC. Thank you Mark for letting your audience know of the great down home soul food (so good that my mouth is watering too). Be sure to stop by Gille's James Island. Absolutely delicious seafood - Tell them MonaLisa & Patty sent you! lol!. People make sure to come visit Charleston for the rich historical American History as well. And don't forget to visit the International African American Museum Downtown Charleston. I was there a few weeks ago for our Family Reunion and a few of my cousins from Ohio, my sister and I went. We all were fantastic from all of the artifacts, pictures, videos, and amazing information. We spent 2-3 hours there! A Must SEE and DO!
It’s amazing how everything he eats is so good I’ve seen many channels and they tell the truth about the food they eat but all of his channels the food is so good?
The crabs are served cold so you can heat it up and the butter melts down. But they are really good even served that way. Garlic crab trays are my favorite. Even with all the sauces out here today inspired by TH-cam(which are good), nothing beats a good ol garlic crab butter sauce. Loved this.
I LOVE all of your videos! I’m always drooling! Lol. And I truly live vicariously through your eyes when you travel abroad to different countries. Thank you for sharing your experiences.
To all Geechee brothers and sisters we've been in South Carolina and in the Americas for over 100,000 years we were there before slavery 92% of African-Americans
I live on the Gulf Coast and harvest most of my own seafood. Fish, crab, and shrimp, plus oysters. I gotta say those crab were full of meat. Some of the meatiest I've seen.

Hi! My family is from SC too and moved to Up State NY. I know he enjoyed that food.
EDISTO!!!
Chucktown here and yes we are the real deal when it comes to soul food !!! #GullahGeechee
I grew up in Walterboro! Live in Charleston now though! Love the Low Country!!!!
I love how Mark goes to every country and truly enjoy the food and the culture, he always makes me so hungry .

My parents are from SC. I don't like okra and tomatoes, but my daughter does. It is a love or hate dish.
@@CynM. I love the way my mom made it. Her recipe left with her in 1989. And I regret not learning it along with her red rice.
This is true with me as well, my mom born & raised in SC.. I myself born & raised in NY.. growing up she made everything I seen here. I especially love that damn red rice & sausages!!😋😋

💯💯💯
Umm yeah. No Mas new yuck.
Yes, Gullah culture and food is amazing. South Carolina is one of top 5 best food destinations in the states. Thanks for showcasing it. 😋

Hi Mark, I watched every episodes of your Peru food tours when I was preparing my Peru trip. I wrote down pages of notes and information about different ‘must try’ food items from your show. Due to Covid travel restrictions, my trip was canceled. When restrictions are lifted, I went to Tahiti instead because Peru was experiencing political instability, not safe to visit. I really enjoy watching your appreciation of food, make eating a piece of dry lumber seemed so tasty.

Mark oozes niceness and more human behavior than many humans
Wow,that's the food I grew up eating. I know those places . I love Lima beans and rice! Good job Mark! Thanks for visiting my home.
I get so hungry watching all your videos! I love eating amazing soul food, especially seafood!
Can't wait for you to hit 10M, Mark!!!
Mark has had a special place in my heart for at least the past 5 years. The only thing I am consistently questioning myself is: when Mark is eating and giving the amazing food reviews, are Mark’s wife and son waiting for him to finish before starting to eat or do they get their own food?
They get their own food. I've seen a few vid clips of them eating along with him. She usually holds the phone on a tripod
Nah they just get his leftover scraps. Sometimes it's even enough for them too eat.
But Mark is a big eater so sometimes they go to bed hungry.
@@OneOut1 🤣🤣🤣
SC native here! Oh so good watching you enjoy family staples! I also fell asleep after eating that type of food😅
I grew up there. I've only been back for a couple quick visits.
What I appreciate about this is that you're not going to the posh downtown tourist restaurants. You're going to places the locals go. Probably saving yourself a ton of cash too.
My guess is you're saving close to $30 a plate without missing any of the flavor of low country food.
The last combo looks like a fav and hats off for highlighting this culture there
Mark your videos are the best for culture & food combined ! Your bright personality is second to none, best wishes for you and your family.
South Carolina is my father’s home land I am Geehee. These are the food of my family. My father was a chef and an amazing cook! Thank you for sharing !
Thank you for sharing the mysteries of the Gullah people!
Mark you make me hungry but at same time we learned about culture and food that defines an individual soul
Wow, I just love this channel.... southern food is so good albeit I grew up in the Great Northwest (San Francisco, & Oregon), and I've been exposed to a variety of different foods.
I was introduced to this channel by a friend about 2 yrs ago.
Finally seeing Marc's videos within top 10 views. 😂 one bucket list checked. 😅
Sorry to break it to you but you being 2 minutes late to the drop makes you probably number 500
Pro move how Mark decided to sit hanging out the side of the car. Avoided the sun and the picture quality was sick. Mark is a seasoned pro and you see it with every pre editing and post editing decisions he makes. Props
Great food,good people , laughter is brightest in the place where food is good 👍
Bertha's food looks delicious 😋
I eat it once a week lol
the first place actually looking very delicious and genuine
Thank you for coming down south Mark. NC, SC an GA Coast have some of the best cooking around
All of the food looks mouth watering! I'm travelling to America this year for the first time and noting these places on my bucket list 😍
Thank you for representing my home States Seafood well. Love your show!
Oh wow! Featuring my wonderful Geechee Hometown Charleston SC. Thank you Mark for letting your audience know of the great down home soul food (so good that my mouth is watering too).

His reaction to everything he eats is always the same you watch one video and you’ve seen them all
Good stuff Mark never a boring video!
Letsss goooo Mark!! 843!! Charleston Stand up!!

Mark you gotta make your way to Savannah and eat at Wilkes, also the Georgia white shrimp and low country boil and brunswick stew
