How humble they are and do not have an iota of hatred or hatred or misbehavior and a lot of help there
Gaymer is clotted cream and kahi is like puff pastry dipped in simple sugar syrup. It is best Iraqi breakfast!
Iraqi people's are so loveing we are brothers love 💕❤️ from Pakistan
I love food from both Pakistan and Iraq. YUM! We are all brothers and sisters around the world my friend! One love!
Props for going to Iraq in 2022. Lots of amazing Armenians in Iraq as well. Took us in after the genocide.
I met lots of Armenian Iraqis in Baghdad. Love ARMENIA!!
@@Davidsbeenhere mm
And the USA took care of the Iraqi genocide part
We Iraqis trying always to protect our diversity and we welcome those in need 🇮🇶😁 …. Hope some Iraqis to have no racism inside as Islam demands 🙂
I had many Armenian friends growing up in Iraq. When I was 13 I moved to Australia, my first friend here was Armenian too. I was pretty suprised that they had no idea of Armenian Iraqis. I'd love to go back to Iraq it's been 13 years too long.
Thanks you deserve more views 👍
Iraqi people are very hospitable
I traveled there in 2013
Thank you so much Iranian. I am so thankful for your support. I agree the Iraqi people were absolutely amazing! Iranian people were also incredibly kind and welcoming!
I am excited for the iraqi series
TOMORROW! Can't wait to share it with you all. Thank you so much NAjib!
Thank you for showing my beautiful country 🇮🇶🫶
Greetings from Mesopotamia to everyone watching ❤ 🇮🇶 thank you David
Greetings from Roman Empire 😅
@@andresvegap2475 brother Caesar, I knew you’d come
David, David, David... Damn Bro, what more can a person say. Just like Iran, you showing people a side to these countries no one sees, or no one chooses to show. Thank you. Besides the people being so hospitable, and the food being the actual reason you're there, I would seriously go for the perfumes too. The variety is crazy! Looking forward to the series
THANK YOU CHRIS! Truly appreciate your support and thoughtful comments! Have a beautiful Sunday and so glad to be able to share these places with the world.
Also waiting to see what bizarre soccer/football jerseys you come with next LOL, also one of the reasons I love this channel...
I have so much ABUNDANT joy and happiness for IRAQ, to see the country recovering from all the terrible nonsense and wasteful violence that was done to the country not too long ago and in recent years. Iraqis seem to be very friendly, warm, creative, rich cultured, happy, and welcoming folks. The Iraqi food scene looks to be so WONDERFUL and DIVERSE indeed. By the willingness of The Almighty Creator, I will visit IRAQ in the future and experience the Iraqi food scene for sure. The food scene from a FOODIE'S perspective, seems to be a GLOBAL TREASURE that's still undiscovered. SALUTE ✌🏾👍🏾💪🏾👉🏾👌🏾❤❤❤💯💯💯💯
Ngl bro Iraq has always been in a dilemma some way or another lol but one thing the people the strive for progression and success. Not saying this cause I am one but man they're really proud and hardworking people. People like that will even survive a nuke.
@@Ramy_Ramz Hello, My Friend! Yes, it seems like your food scene is exemplary, worth exploring and experiencing. The dishes seem to be unique, world-class, and should be promoted more often on the global stage. SALUTE 💪🏾👉🏾✌🏾💯
The food culture in Iraq is extremely diverse because Iraq is a diverse country, we have different ppl in every part of Iraq, each with their own unique history so despite the conflicts of the past I think most Iraqis will still agree that food and football will always bring Iraqis together lol
Your first day in IRAQ ....the breakfast..The History..the Monumental figuers.....oldest street....ancient mosque..the 12th Century building...Bazaars with all the beaytiful scents...merchandise and various foods and above all seeing you and Tasos experiencing all this just amazing. Loved this video..looking forward to the rest, Thanks David and youand Tasos stay safe.
To you too Shabana and Hailey!! Hope you both have a beautiful weekend and absolutely this was an unforgettable adventure. Sending you blessings!
@@Davidsbeenhere Thankyou David ...always have our support...blessings to you too.
David, you always make an effort to connect with the people, no matter where you might be. You learn part of their language and that always takes down barriers between each other. So many kind and good people in this world. Take care and thank you for what you do. John here, from the back-roads of Northeastern Tennessee.
Robin thank you so much for saying that. Its people like you who really help make this something special. To be able to connect with people around the world and to learn about so many beautiful places and cultures is a dream come true. I totally agree there is so much goodness and kindness in this world. We are all brothers and sisters on this world! Thank you for the love and sending peace and blessings to you in those beautiful backgrounds of Northeastern Tennessee!
Good morning David. I barely got in on the 'live' chat but I just watched the replay. So, finally, Iraq series is here. Great start. It's so nice to see how these people and the city of Bagdad have survived after all that Iraq has been through: the Iran/Iraq war and Bush's invasion of Iraq and their own internal problems. But I digress. No more politics. They sure love sugar and sweets. A diabetic's no-no. I love the flatbread but without all that sugary syrup. Interesting way they prepare and cook their food but it all look delicious. As for the market, you can find almost everything you need but how do you choose. An abundance of products. And how about those coppersmith artisans making all that copperware, fascinating. So nice seeing Tasos. Just did a 'live' chat with him earlier this morning. He was at the airport in Lisbon waiting to fly to Ghana. He looked well. So, David, you know how anxious I was waiting for this series and you didn't disappoint. So looking forward to the next video. Thank you very much. I hope you are feeling much better now. Take good care of yourself and have a great day. ❤️🙏👼🕊️🇹🇹🇨🇦
thank you Judy!!!
20:37 انها رمز للاله السومري الحافظ ( سبتو )

This type of bread is actually very popular in Bangladesh and its called "bakarkani".
It's my favourite Bangladeshi sweet snack especially with milk tea.

Love from Iraq ❤ 🇮🇶
wow first day in Iraq! Epic :)
I was born in Baghdad and lived there until I was almost 7. I remember some of the foods you ate. We would go out to get kahi and geymar on Saturday or Sundays, and it was soooo good. I remember having torshi, also so good. I didn't care for the half and half dates. The unripe portion was bitter to me. Other favorites of mine that maybe you had while you were there, were tashreeb, khoubiz, and dibis. That's so awesome you visited Baghdad. I hope to make a visit back in a few years.
I was last there in 2007, at that time those streets were empty and you wouldn’t dare be on them in anything but the heaviest armor. Glad to see life flourish
It is! And yet these same third world, less than 40 IQs will blame us for everything bad. God forbid you live in a FREE COUNTRY.
Nice video man, I don’t think I’d be as excited as you thou trying all those foods 😂
Amazing David!!
Thank you for being so open to others!❤️ We learn from you different religions culture and knowledge. Love you David!
😀 Ohh myyy. Yummmmy. Watching here 🇰🇼🇵🇭 support
thank you like always!!
A beautiful t-shirt is the Iraqi national football team's t-shirt
Welcome to Iraq ❤ I hope you enjoyed your stay , tell your friends and family and come again ❤️
God Bless you Brother!
You have a good company of kind and lovely Iraqis around you.
Hey hey, great great video video, always amazing food and markets. Try to get your double double on correct. Know one from the countries you visit speak in doubles, just eat it.
Thank you for showing our culture!
Utmost respect from Pakistan
Praise the chefs!
Epic video.
i am so glad u go to iraq bc i live there!!❤
God Bless you and Keep up the AMAZING WORK!!! 💯💕
this is by far the best showcase of iraqi culture by a westerner on youtube
Wonderfull
And also sahtein
Sahtein is an arabic word
We say it after anyone eat something
Like in french bon appetit
My almost comments to your videos is sahtein if you noticed
That breakfast looks delicious David and I have to ask...what's the sentiment behind that new ring you've been wearing? Happy and safe travels/ eating!
the ring was a gift from a jeweler in Iran. I will never take it off!
@@Davidsbeenhere awe that's awesome. Love when people appreciate their gifts...
Alhamdulillah 😃
Lol “Bush no good, America good”
In history these countries go back thousands of years in history.
Thanks for sharing.
Amazing video and simply love your and your team's attitude and open-mindedness wherever you travel! Small comment: The pickles weren't ginger, but pickled sunchokes - the only pickle I'd ever want to eat as an iraqi kid, crunchy and sour 🤗 Thank you so much for visiting Iraq! Sincerest regards from here 🌱
Thank you Devid for your videos .. you always make me laugh when you compare what you eat to something memorized from Indians food! I 've noticed that from many countries you have visited. You're like a man who compares everything to his mom's food :)
Copper market, wow still there, last time I've been there in 1980.
In Iraq we have a proverb about a person who's speech worth nothing:- A fart in copper market.... you wouldn't hear it 😂
ahahaha Raed this is an amazing comment thank you so much!!!
فضحتنـه😂😂😂😂
نرحب بكم وبوابنا مفتوحه لكم واهلا وسهلا بكم من جميع انحاء العالمم
David will come back a bigger person after his trip 😂😂😂
That's halawas in arabic, turkey also more different halawas,dates are delicious they are half dried,
Amazing people and delicious food love ❤️ it's
❤️
This video reminds me of the first videos you made in India ❤
Btw David, i fucking love you look when tasting things, but afterwsrds you break out itsss amazing. Remember thats why i subbed from the beginnig, nice to se a video that reminds me of the old days ❤
Wow Gumpin thank you so much. I see you've been subbed for 4 years and I can't thank you enough for that kind of support and love. I'll do my best to break out afterward a bit more haha. I definitely will be trying to harness some of those old days just for you kind Gumpin. I take off my hat to you and once again truly thank you.
I really get happy to see the gesture of Namste 🙏❤️ , It shows you have really good connect with India ..
Woww amazing fooddd in iraqqqq delecious hope i cam go theree soon
Safafeer doesn't mean whistlers ,it means Coppersmith, so its called Suq al_Safafeer, (Coppersmiths Bazaar), great vid thanks for sharing
I miss my baghdad 😢
Where are from ?
Because you remember Georgia on time 8:25
Are you from Georgia usa or from Georgia on Russia
This is the first time I see tomatoes with Bagela and oil !!
Oh how dream of going to the bizarre!
Bro that's pickled ginger. It's good with fatty foods like kebab.
cool man
Just a quick tip. Souq not Bazar! Souq is Arabic which is the language of Iraq.
my country!!❤
Viva Iraq!
Beautiful
The pickle you ate is sun choke or Jerusalem artichoke not ginger
Were u have buy a ring frm Iraq or some were esles
David. I watched your video, and it's not ginger. It's called Jerusalem Artichoke. I pickle it myself in the States.
Yes i agree. My sister pickles those all the time with turshy...😅
@@jimmynena1978 that's what we call it in Iraq, Turshi. I use dates vinegar. Best for Turshi
What a shame that the royal family of Iraq is no longer here. I wonder what would have been Iraqi peoples fate? The demise of the monarchy was the start of the dictatorship. Kahi and gaymar is lovely, great stuff.
Love from India
🇮🇶🤍❤️
You are very lucky guy, love Iraq forever ❤️
👍👍👍👍👍
🙏🇮🇶😍
Daje Roma ❤
Come to Iran too
🇮🇶🌴🇮🇶🥰🥰🇮🇶
you love free food are? as long is free mmm ahhh honestly poore people god bless them,
Glad to see Iraq back on it's feet. After what America done to them. They nearly took them off the axis.
And the dumbest post of the year goes to....
Habibi
HABIBI!!!! CHOKRAN!
@@Davidsbeenhere my first comment from your channel

@@sscdreamsfornonhinditeens9927 thanks for your reply

Its Iraq.
When he says “shukran shukran” and folds his hands he’s just looking like insane mofo😂
now im hungry
الطعام هو الأفضل
David come back to India
one day!
It's inappropriate to compare a dish from a culture to another one in a different culture unless you are talking to people from your own culture and trying to help them relate.
How ridiculous would it sound if you tell an Asian that their noddles are similar to pasta in Europe.
Mark Wiens never does that
Anyway, love everything else about your vlogs.
He could be explaining it to his viewers. I understood what the bread was like when he said paratha - not like traditional bread but flaky yet soft like paratha
