I think you have talent for this Amazing Videos i really do belieave you are very good making this videos . Thanks Angelo
@@cleaningtime8156 Ah you are so lucky, have you been for NY before? The fireworks are absolutely spectacular, sadly, I won't be here due to my 90 days running out. I certainly am recording more, I have just got back here for a month so will be filming some more of my favourite places. Make sure you are subscribed to see when they appear soon. It is a great motivation to hear you enjoy the videos, especially when I am just starting and still find it awkward being in front of a camera.
@@hungrytoexplore i will be there for NY eve fireworks 🎆 cant wait , i would love to meet you in Madeira and buy you lunch, but you not there this time as im arriving on 24/12 and back on 07/01/2022 , if you still there let me know would love to meet you and buy you a coffe aswell , i just love ❤ your work you doing in Madeira by promoting this Amazing Island 🏝 you doing a fantastic job thanks and welcome to Madeira i was borne here in Madeira and i love people like you coming to Madeira . Thanks Angelo
Finally, a Madeira vlog where distracting loud music isn’t playing the whole time, obrigado! American going to this paradise august 2022, thanks for food tour. Lovely video, I’m a new subbie
Cheers NJ! I think I may have used music in my early videos to cover being uncomfortable with being behind the camera and talking online for the first time. So apologies in advance if you find that. But I am much more comfortable now, its been a fun learning curve. You will LOVE Madeira, it is an amazing place. I am back for a few weeks in June so keep an eye out for more videos. Thanks so much for subscribing and taking the time to comment, I appreciate it.
Well Joe , we’re in Madeira at the moment and we’re going on your recommendation s ! We’re staying by bar no2 so I’ve had a balo de caco Lovely ! Ive been to rei de poncha -I didnt want to leave ! Tomorrow chocolate shop and snack bar Bella 5 Thanks so much for your videos 😊
Thanks Liz, it is a stunning place to visit and difficult to beat. Great weather, delicious food, kind people and spectacular scenery. I am heading back to Madeira in the next few weeks and will make some more videos on places to eat.
Live this video, a few familiar places plus a few new ones to try on our next visit, I so need to try thise chocolates. We loved Bar no 2 when we stayed at the Pestana Carlton on our first trip to Maderia, considerably cheaper than the hotel bar , with a great vibe, and as you say the Prego is just delicious . Also check out Bar Caracas in the old town, a fantastic tiny locals bar, we drank lots of Coral Tonica, the dark beer, and were plied with free pork tapas . Can't wait to return.
Wow, great local knowledge, shows immediately, and I can respect your understanding of Portuguese already. Very important :-) very much appreciate it. You’re editing well already, all of the intro (and transitions) very clean, Joe nice work man!!
Ah thanks man, I appreciate you taking the time to watch and am grateful for your kind words. I look forward to making more, maybe in Thailand one day soon haha.
Joe~ Merry Christmas 🎅 🎄 After watching your video, I completed a 4-day trip to Funchal, Madeira, and Camino Portuguese. Thanks from Korea 🇰🇷 Henry ~ ☺️
Very nice video! I just come back from this adorable island Madeira, I have been in some places that yuo recommended it, but not all. For you who are going and visiting Funchal, please avoid Cafe Funcha
A very enjoyable romp through the eateries of Funchal. Can't wait to return, possibly at Christmas if the Covid-19 restrictions are lifted. You have reminded me that visiting the more rustic places for a snack or meal can quite often be better than the glitzy glass and chrome establishments. Well done Joe . . . .
Thank you for your watching and your kind comment David. I think you are safe to return now. COVID is taken seriously over there and it feels safe. I am heading back in a few weeks so will be sure to make some more videos. I have found my best meals there are in places you would think twice about entering before letting go of your preconceptions. Keep an eye out for some more like that on the channel.
For meat, try La Vaca Negra (a bit far from the city centre but it's worth it). For unique old fish recipes, Jaquet in Rua de Santa Maria. For picados (Madeiran Tapas), Banana's Pub.
Hey Flavio, I have been to La vaca negra and filmed, you can check through my videos to find it. I have not been to the other recommendations though, I will check them out next time.
At Bela 5 the Espada was everything you said it would be. We mentioned you while we were there and they rolled out the red carpet. Coffee and egg at Abrigo Do Poiso thumbs up! Pastries, chocolates and the park all good.
Thanks for your comment, and you are totally right. I will be sure to add them in future. I will add the prices to the information section of this video, but going forward, I will add them into the video. I am heading back to Madeira soon, so keep an eye out for more videos.
Awesome! Well, breakfast is a tricky one because it isn't really a big thing there. Most people just have a quick coffee and pastry. So any bakery, including a confeitaria in the video is a good option. But Prima Caju is also nice, it does nice pancakes and muesli bowls. The Loft is another which does similar things. Same with Three House, which does great coffee too and has a wonderful view. Art Corner Cafe may also interest you. But there isn't a 'traditional' Madeiran breakfast as such.
I'm traveling to Funchal in three weeks, appreciate your food tour! I think I'll be trying all of your recommendations, but maybe not all in one day as you did (too many calories for me, lol). Planning on doing a lot of hiking also, to work off all of the good food, and thanks for sharing, good job!
Oh exciting! You are going to have an amazing time. Keep an eye on the vlog, I have more videos recorded at restaurants to release. Check back in just before you go and let me know and I will give you any further recommendations I have but haven't released yet. Hiking is definitely something to do when you are there, the levadas are stunning.
these places look amazing I know its a year on but were exactly are these? the chocolate place and the place you got the steak sandwhich have different locations, i wanna go to the same ones you did aha I'm visiting next month :)
Hi Joe. Excellent video. My wife and I will be visiting Madeira in March and will definitely be checking out the places and food you recommended. Really like your presentation style. Very pleasant and easy to listen to. Don't change that. The really disappointing part of the video was at the end when you said this was your first video! We were hoping to hear about what you had for dinner! Looking forward to more videos. Cheers!
John, thank you for your kind comments and sorry for disappointing you with dinner, clearly I cannot eat as much as I used to haha. I am heading back to Madeira soon and will make more videos - so definitely keep an eye out for more.
Hey - thanks for the kind comments, it is great to read such positive words. It was actually my first test video and I used a GoPro Hero 9. I think it is ok to get a feel for vlogging like this, but you definitely need a more capable camera. I have got myself a Canon M50ii and just arrived back in Madeira, so will be making more videos soon.
Hi Joe, good to chat and walk with you in Funchal, here's the link to it, hope your travels are going well: th-cam.com/video/XEk8i3MAeh4/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=LivingWalks
It was my first ever test video :) try watching my latest ones and see what you think - I think you’ll see a difference in the editing, in me, in the camera etc
Nice work for your first one! I am sure you have figured it out by now, but u should edit yourself, and be more concise! You could easily make it 10 minutes shorter.
@@j.r.fleming764 haha all those videos are so cringy for me! The latest Thailand ones are much better. Although understand they may not be if interest. But I’d never picked up a camera or edited before when I started
Yeah, I was clearly having some issues with that, but I didn't realise until I watched the videos back the next day. Obviously it was too late then, probably my suncream... Thanks for watching :)
@@hungrytoexplore hahahaha. You and BORIS seam to have the same vocabulary. Is either bring your own booze or cheese and wine. Hahahaha 😂🤣 only jocking of course.
Joe quick question that you may not want to answer... I will delete the question later. Did you buy subscribers and views in March 2023 and around November 2022? (socialblade) analytics I know someone who did this and it was easily fixed.
Haha no! I’ve never paid for any subs or views! Everything has been organic. I had the five star chicken video blow up and give me a lot of views which I think damaged the balance of the channel.
the only thing I can see on there is the channel category is wrong... it is down as "people" when everyone else is down as "Travel" despite me categorising every video as travel
the only thing I can think of beyond - "YT hates me" (which isn't very constructive) is that that huge viral five star video messed things up in a big way, but also many other videos which properly took off. essentially with people only interested in that one video. So my core audience is actually very small. so when I post, it recommends it to people who just do not care anymore, stats drop and it doesn't push it out to find a new audience like it should
@@hungrytoexplore I am not so sure. I am convinced that local ingredients are of good quality but every time we tried anything in different places of the island it was average to low. Most of the times dissapointing because they use almost no vegetables and spices.
@@Succuub You are right that the local ingredients can be really good quality, especially the fruit, veg and the fish. I agree with you that I would love there to be more exotic spices. It is strange there is not more in the food culture given that Portugal had a big influence on the spice trade. But this culture is not about that, it is about simplicity, and when you have good quality ingredients, it is delicious. I am back on the island and will be making more videos of the places I really like, so maybe keep an eye out and we can compare.
Get My MADEIRA FOOD MAP Here: bit.ly/MadeiraFoodMap
nice video. keep them coming.
Cheers William, oh there's plenty to come don't you worry.
12:20 I would of had to try the fish and the soup together
haha that would have been a good shout. I will try it next time
Amazing.I Hope visited Madeira.delicieuce food mmm
I have moved Madeira content to my other channel @thejoeyp you can find more over there
Really nice meeting you at the Poncha bar in funchal yesterday Joe, sorry we interrupted your evening. Thanks for all your great videos

Great Madeiran gastronomic tips!!!!
Cannot wait for your next videos ! 👏🏼👏🏼
Excellent work Joe!!! 👏🏼👏🏼
Thank you Marilia - a little awkward on the first video but they will get better :)

Dined at the Restaurant with the best food ever, with a hell of a chef "Restaurante Lá ao Fundo"
For the best biscuits went to "Fábrica de Santo António "

Watching you eating this soup.. Can feel your pleasure🤩
So good! Love that restaurant!
All the food in this video looks amazing! Can't wait to taste test my way around Funchal this August!
You're going to love it. It's such a beautiful island. For me, the best food is outside of Funchal though so make sure you venture out.
Been to Funchal many times and must agree with you that it is a great place to visit and food excellent. Great video Thanks.
Isn't it? It is such a charming city and the food is so honest and fresh. I am heading back soon and looking forward to making more videos.
Can't believe you're featuring Bela 5 Snack Bar in your video. I love this place, had lunch there so many times.
Ah, I love it there, best fish in Funchal, for me.

So glad that you enjoyed the marvellous food of my place of birth. ❤️
I love the island, not just the food :)
It would help some viewers (like myself) get an idea of the cost, if you list the prices for the food you buy. Thanks.

What is the name of that restaurant and where exactly is
It’s called Snack Bar Bela 5, it’s near the old town. I have a google map link in the description of you want to find exactly where it is.
€6 for 10 large handmade chocolates is insane, I’ll be visiting Madeira in a few months, can’t wait!

It’s not 2023 if you are wearing mask!
visit these places in 2023 and you will find great food, I promise you :)
Why do you mash the potatoes. It's supposed to be eaten in pieces. Well cut pieces. But I guess it's OK. Every person likes it different. Enjoy.
haha try it and then come back and tell me how amazing it is!
In general Madeira's food is terrible. It looks great but it is completely tasteless.
That is a bold statement, I think like anywhere, you need to go to the right restaurants. But there is certainly good food to be found here.

@@Succuub You are right that the local ingredients can be really good quality, especially the fruit, veg and the fish. I agree with you that I would love there to be more exotic spices. It is strange there is not more in the food culture given that Portugal had a big influence on the spice trade. But this culture is not about that, it is about simplicity, and when you have good quality ingredients, it is delicious. I am back on the island and will be making more videos of the places I really like, so maybe keep an eye out and we can compare.
@@Succuub bloody hell, you must be going to all the places I don't go to
