When I was a kid my mom would drag me along to help teach Somali refugees conversational english and occasionally we would visit their homes and try their food. Over a decade later I remember those people as being some of the kindest people I have ever met. So full of joy and compassion, they are really a reminder of why it is important to help communities in need no matter where they come from.
+Steven Muldowney They were overwhelmingly kind and welcoming to our entire crew, it was a great way to start our day. Thanks for watching!
Thanks for the content! P.S. I'm pretty sure the name they called me translated into chubby white kid or something along those lines.
Don't waste your time on this person, clearly his/her issue is with somali people and that's his/her problem. It's nice to see that there are still decent humans out there. Thank you for that.

There's a large Somali community in the UK. Where I live (Sheffield) they are really nice, a bus driver was being a dick once and made me pay full fare (instead of student fare) and I didn't have enough. Long story short, a Somali woman behind me paid for me and said that I was the same age as her son, and she would want someone to do that for her kids. They may seem reserved at times, but they are an Amazing group of people :)
That is very sweet of u

I heard that Somali people don't eat alone. They share what they have.
almaz washington true
almaz washington so true😂
almaz washington yes
Yeah sometimes we just get a big plate and eat from it. My aunt told me when she was in Somalia, when she was tired of chewing her gum she would give it to my dad. We don't fear germs that much, but other than in food we are kinda too Hygenic because of Islam being widespread.
almaz washington Yea thats 100% true. Were really kind and love giving to others
There are tons of somali people in my city (in Minnesota) and the first time I tried some of their authentic Somali food, I was so surprised. It's very good and has a flavor unique to anything else I've eaten. Such an interesting cuisine and an interesting culture.

i like how respectful the host is of somali food and the somali people.
right-left hand has to do with islam, not arabs. nice video though
Vedad Sehic islam came from arabs plus somalia is an arab country
Moha O. What? Somalian people are not Arabs, and something being related to Arab culture and something being related to Islamic culture is a whole different thing.
İslâmi Davet Tereçan but somalia is part of the arab world and a member in the arab league so
Moha O. Islam came from Allah swt, not arabs.
Moha O. So is the Comoros. Doesn't mean it's an Arabic country
Salam to my Somali brothers and sisters! From a Pakistani living in Chicago. I will have to go check this place out as the food looks yummy!
I am proud somalian🇸🇴i love when other people try to learn our culture, and the way we live.."indho yar" kulahaa😂

Really it's funny the name they called him.

It is Somali not somalian
I really like how this guy accept every new or different food and different idea and culture! I really respect that
Somali people got mad love for rude nicknames and you will never offended by them calling you names. god bless em.
The Somali nicknames are hilarious. When I was young child (young as 6 years) my sister and cousins used to call me "af cas" which translates to "red lips" in English and I used to cry. So no they don't spare us children either 😂 I would cry & I felt like I was being bullied but I realised later it was just out of endearment.. Now looking back good memories.
We all heliour😂🤚
Af cas what up hhhhh
Big love for all the Somali communities across the world
My nickname tramples all other somali nicknames..Gelleh..they gave me that nickname and I never even been to baadiyo or near geel..I used to carry a stick on my shoulders..i carry that name to this day and i was 2 when I got it..i like it i mean i love it.

I had Ethiopian cuisine while working in Washington State, I remembered wanting something different to eat and the parking attendant asked if I wanted to try Ethiopian food that he knows of a good restaurant. They served a hug palette of vegetarian and a palette of meat dishes. Had to eat with our hands and it was very good! I actually liked the vegan dish a lot. The Somali food looks great as well and eager to try it if I can fine one in my area. Thanks for increasing our awareness!
Agree
+Damascus Steele I'm half Ethiopian on my mother's side and half New Zealand European on my father's side. My mother was one of the first Ethiopian's in the country and became an Amharic interpreter as large Ethiopian community had developed in Auckland, New Zealand. Because of my mother's occupation it has enabled her to be extremely close with the Ethiopian community and I have had the privilege to be exposed to the wonderful cuisine my entire life. I absolutely love it! There are no Ethopian restaurants here so a lot of the people here know nothing about the cuisine, so I am so delighted to see when people from other cultures have tried the Ethiopian dishes I have grown to love! My entire childhood I was convinced nobody appreciated the culture as much as I did; so it makes me so happy to see comments from people like you and buzzfeed videos of people enjoying the cuisine!
+Damascus Steele
It is very similar, Somali food also has an Indian feel to it but with fewer spices.
Next time your in Washington state, checkout Somali restaurant called Juba, it's in Tukwila, WA, I think it's less than a mile away from the Sea-Tac airport.

Somali nicknames are likely based on appearance and looks and probably behaviors. they mostly sound rude but be assured they don't mean to be rude. Don't take offence
7cesgal7 our culture
oh. can you give me any examples of nicknames?
asdf ie The Chinese are known as Indha Yare (Small Eyes), while Arabs are Dhega Cas (Red Ears), Jilbo Weyne (Knock Knees) Shigshigaaye (Stutterer), Yare (Shorty), Yarisow (Tiny), Wershe (Cross-Eyed),Cod Weyne (Rich Voiced), Dahable (Golden), luul (Diamon), gaal (means infidel but a term used to call non-muslims) etc
7cesgal7 holy shit those guys play rough!
Emmi F. how are kids supposed to bully each other when all those words are taken..
dude the banana was for rice lol
and for the canjeero .... it's delicious 😍
Lol, I remember I was at a Somali restaurant and they didn't give me a spoon or fork, I asked for some and they brought me back a banana haha. I learned that day what the banana was for. Then, another time a fellow African American was leaving with their food when the Somali brother said "hey, you forgot your banana!" The brother was so happy and said "wow, y'all give us fruit too?" I then explained what the banana was for. Now I can't eat the food without one. And it's good for digestion.
I M What is the Banana for
hahahahahahahahahahah that's true lol Abdi
😂😂 yea
Hadii aad somali tahay oo aad daawaneeso videogan adeer like❤

It wasn't racist don't feel bad. If you have one leg shorter than the other they'll call you hip hop, if you're blind in the right eye they'll call left eye. Whatever they can point out, that's what they'll call you and it's in love.

Hip Hop? Lmaoooo I'm done!!
they were acting like they were gonna think about it lmfao they had that name ready from the moment he walked in.
Big up to my people, somaalia hanoolaato
somalia ha nolato!
***** May all of Somalia unite once more... so that we can show the world that we are competant! and so that we can share all the oil to each nation.
We can make a new flag and call ourself greater somalia.
We can make our new capital Las Canod! - the place were puntland and somaliland fight over.
Imagine that ... but no. You'd rather be independant and yemen and ethiopia invade your ass.
La ilaha illah, you are making fun of a "somali" which is in your own countries name "somali-land"?
You support a government which is based upon qabil which is so backwards and you dislike the idea of unity?
We are not like pakistan and india. We share the same language, culture and ancestors.
Galada wants us to divide so it is easier for them to invade in the near future.
Your not thinking about the greatness, your only being prideful.
Imagine if somaliland, puntland, jubbaland, ogaden, etc, all chose a president and prime minister, then there would be another supreme government were these leaders would then be nominated to be emperor of Greater Somalia.
look at US and UK. Mortal enemies have unites to form a super force.
But no... qabil-ist like you are holding us back. Down with qabil-ism. Up with unity.
Maybe one day horn of africa will be like the EU and have same currency and passport.
Maybe AU? Abyssinia Union.
Who knows. - from a fellow somali.
***** you speak somali and you are calling it zoomali... wallahi your wierd....
You must be embarassed to be somali lmao. "Hello, my name is hibo abdi and I'm a somalilander" sounds so stupid.
Im from puntland, we never say "im a puntlander" what the heck.
So you think its ok that we fight each other rather than uniting? Because that is whats happening.
instead of uniting and waging war against terrorist, you bomb us instead? Fighting over oil fields?
May Allah forgive us...

I think the banana was meant for the rice and chicken. I am Somali and have never seen anyone eat a banana with injera. The sweetness of the banana goes well with the rice dish or pasta, but not injera.
Tbh I eat my injera with banana
+tripletthreat97 it's not injera it's 'anjera
+tripletthreat97 yes it's for the rice! When he mashed the banana I cringed lol.

We use to give charity Saudi Arabia and Emirates and some other Arab countries. imagine now where we are?
United we stand, divided we lost
You lost or not it's consin you dear we don't know Somalian so keep Kuwait Somalia is one👏
Bismillah giving charity is not something to brag about specially when you are the one who gave it out........, sounds embarrassing brother.......
leave that behind and work for the future improvement.
@@anisa.......6592 naa shut up, when you give charity and the fool you gave the charity to comes and burns your house, is it bragging to remind them? You are extremist to the point of stupidity...we will tell the whole world and generations to come, "qayr ha sameen shar kuuma imaado" I belief that saying is even from arabic..you probably think every carab is related to prophet Muhammad scw
The saddest part is that they're the one's who are pushing us down
Division didn’t make us lose, it was treating each other unfairly and inhumanly
I went that restaurant yesterday as a truck driver you can go every somali restaurant around the country. The food out their is pretty delicious.

There's a Japanese dish where you pour tea on your rice and add seaweed, ume boshi (pickled plums) or both. I have to tell you it's one of my comfort foods. I also love your videos because I can tell you genuinely understand the concepts of a wide variety of food and you are really honest in how you present them (like you're not an all knowing expert or try to sell me the food, you just say what it is exactly) Thanks for your content!
Reilly Owens • yeah!!~ I was thinking about that when he was discussing the canjeera!
And it’s Somali too 🌝

There are a ton of African cab drivers in NYC and African Uber drivers in the suburbs. They're honestly the nicest, if you're tired and don't wanna talk they'll respect that, if you're feeling talkative they'll have great conversations
lucas is open minded legend you can tell how at ease he is
Your comment about food is pro and legit, not like other videos where they just like, OMG! it tastes so good, OMG! and just start looping from there, good job on actually describing the food as it is. Also, respect for eating with your hand. It is not disgusting, it is trying authentic food with authentic method. Deliciousness is not important, strange food from other culture doesn't always taste good if you haven't learnt how to appreciate them, trying something new, learn something interesting about other culture is the most important part.
Is there anyone's watching 2020👇👇👇
Ofcourse

I never had the breakfe. yet but I always wanted to try their injera that was a lil different from Ethio/Erit. But i love somali food, especially shai the somali tea with milk (I use almond milk) its so good. Good job, I live in columbus ohio and we have the 2nd biggest population out side of Minnesota, love Somali people and culture, There is also a independence day held here to by Somalis.

vincedelapena No lol... We Somali's love our bananas but never have i seen anyone mash it up like that.
How do you mash it?
Thanks guys.
I am still keen on trying this food.
But I'll do more research before I ever post a video of it on the internet. LOL

Lucas, the rude nicknames are part of Somali culture. Please read this BBC article: www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-26354143
+Lucas Peterson Just a heads up in case you took offence by that nickname
+Lucas Peterson Somalian call all asian people "small eyes".... it's not a nickname in this case
+Seldona Openly racist? Lmao definitely not we just name people by being descriptive. South Asians are literally called 'soft hair' and Caucasians are called 'white' nothing offensive about it.
As a Somali, racism shouldn't be tolerated at any level. Even though in Somali culture, it is not seen as a big deal, it is to Asians.
+AnimefreakHQ it has nothing to do with racism. If I am not mistaken there is no word in somali for Asian and they refer to Asians as "small eyes or straight hair@ because it was a way for them to identify this ethnic group. Although they also refer to other black or african people as "charcoal"...but that is a different debate
Waaw amezing food from somalia and proud my country 🇸🇴🇸🇴😍❤
Iam Somali and I believe Somali food is the best food Inthe world really I feel hungry when I watch this video 😥 War sooomali maxamad waan idin salamay❤️
So good! Thank you for be such a down to earth and informative host!
This reporter is definitely very open and lovely Such a great personality.
To Mr. Inda yar (small eyes). Somalis usually give nick names that are descriptive and most of the time they usually go for someone’s handicap but it is given with lots of love, no harm intended and in your case, small eyes is not viewed as a handicap or negative but a term of endearment reserved for a friendly foreigner. I had a feeling that you were well liked by everyone in the video even though they were not able to express it due to I think language limitations. I saw genuine smiles from your hosts and I am sure it was a pleasure to have you there as it has been watching you from here. From the motherland, nice clip, have a good one!
I liked the video. I can feel how loveable Somali people are.
The right hand thing is not Arab culture, many West African countries have this culture as well.
Monsieur Africain it's not a culture it's an Islamic religion to eat right hand when u want to eat something even drinking we use our right hands alhamdulah
Abisha Ali yeah we do that's true.
Monsieur Africain thanks for understanding me
Abisha Ali, sure man no problem I'm a Muslim too! Salaam Aliekum!
Muslims all around the world use only right hand to eat and drink, please dont restrict this tradition only to arabs.
The nickname in Somali culture is sort of a term of endearment. They aren't using it in an offensive way.
accept for galo this galo that.
Mendaciously !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
