As someone who is Lebanese, I appreciate all the exposure the country will get after seeing this video. Much love
Love Lebanese people and food ❤
Your people are gorgeous 👏👏☺️
watching this video showed that lebanon looks alot like my own country
I already planned on visiting Lebanon and after this video, I want to make it sooner.
Gorgeous??? they charge you 10 times the actual price when they know you are a foreigner @@Tropicalpisces 😂😂😂😂
I love Lebanon! Ihope i get there this year! Love from Greece brothers 🇬🇷🇱🇧
Go to turkey
@@Pineapplemilk7 I’ve been there as well
Thanks :) I am Egyptian but my uncle's wife is Lebanese :)
@@parrotarts381 Egypt is lovely as well
@@parrotarts381i m lebanese ,also my aunt's wife is egyptian 😂❤
Unfortunately, this amount of food is often not affordable for half the population in our country, but I'm glad someone appreciates our culture and brings back the nostaligia we all once had
untrue
Before 2020, our money was just 15 cents lesser than the dollar, now its like 89 lebanese pounds for just a D O L L A R
what do you mean its not affordale, all i seen was cheap, vegan crap. no fast food, no burgers, no pizza , no anything tasty, just village food crap
@bck187 and if u were in any way educated which u arnt u would know meat is a huge factor in lebanese meals. So much so there is even a famous joke that goes along the lines of when a vegetarian comes to a lebanese families house they are served lamb instead of beef.
@@jy8711cr7 lamb and beef are both meat. please go back to school and finish it.
So nice reading the comments. Brings me joy that my home country gets such nice compliments
Lebanon is beautiful beautiful people and amazing food
Watching from Palestine 🇵🇸
Wish the politicians were as friendly😅
i am palestinian too, and i can't tell you how much i miss the food in lebanon. it is soooo good🤤
فلسططين حرة🤣
@@yinja3406so move from Israel to Lebanon please 🙏 🇮🇱
@@Immigrants_Cancer there is no country called Israel, it's just an occupation that will end sooo soon. Go educate yourself, and be on the right side of history.
The Egypt jokes will never get old 😂
Egypt lives rent free in his head. You can feel the emotional damage 😂
he will never let it go 💀😂
The Egyptian police still looking for him lol.
Egypt itself is a sad joke, so funny jokes about it is helpful
Yeah, his experience in Egypt cracks me up.
As a Nigerian woman married to a Lebanese I love this video even more because my husband never stops from cooking most of these delicious meals for me. I can’t wait to visit this country for Christmas.
You landed a Lebanese girl ! Good for you man !
@@anazishe said she’s a Nigerian lady with a Lebanese man… Or is this a lesbian lebanese joke that went over my head 🤣
I wish I can pull up some Lebanese man too 😂
Don't bother to come because his family will not welcome you.
@@barbaraohemaaasantewaataky326 you think they're racist and accepting her marriage with their son? Think again, idiiot
All the food looks so good and clean lebanon is impressive. Hoping lebanon recovers. Beautiful place..
The subtle jokes he makes throughout the video are immaculate hahaha. Apart of that I love to see food from different cultures just like Lebanon, 🙏 Shalom from Mexico 🇲🇽
speaking for all the lebanese community as a lebanese myself we would love to thank you so much for the kind words and exposure you gave this beautiful country and i hope many other people get to experience our outstanding culture
most people kinda scammed him

Hello from a Romanian, i would like to visit lebanon one day, ❤
@@nordine-re5qg"kinda"
i am turkish from germany and i would love to visit your country one day. dishes look yummi.
Sonny, Lebanese food is so delicious ! Also, when the Uncle was wrapping the felafel did anyone else think "If it's not tight, it's not right!"?

Love Lebanon 🇱🇧 from Pakistan 🇵🇰 . Stay Blessed !
Ok. Just remember that Lebanon is 1., not a muslim country. and 2., not arab. It's a Mediterranean country. People are Canaanite and European dna.
@@freepaganlebnon is secular country with muslim mejority population and they are not arab but Mediterranean just like Syrian palastine and South European
@@naruto654_ That's mostly what I said. Mediterranean yes. But more specifically we are Canaanite with some European mix. Mostly southern European, but many Lebanese have northern European also. I am one of them. All of this is from Phoenician times.
@@freepaganwe Lebanese are Arabs whether you like it or not.
@@jadamir171 Lebanese are Canaanites. Whether you like it or not. Different histories from the Arabs. And different DNA. DNA doesn't lie. End of story.
as a Lebanese, lebanon is not talked about as much by other countries, so i really appreciate all the compliments for out food
im a lebanese and it feels kinda cool to see someone vlogging out here to tryout our food, if you see most workers angry or just mad, they're just very busy and serious about their job and they speedrun making food for you, thanks for visiting us its nice that we got some exposure in our country 👍
I'm super happy to see you've finally decided to visit Lebanon! I hope you enjoyed/are enjoying our cuisine and beautiful country! Thanks for the exposure!
Thanks for visiting our humble town. Having Hummus and Fatteh in Saida unlocks a Legendary achievement in the quest for real Hummus dishes. Waiting for the rest of the Lebanon series, thanks again.
هذاك اللي يبيع حلويات مكانش في المستوى الصراحة قدملو الحلويات على اساس كرم منو بعدين حسبلو سعرهم ب 10 دولار وهو سعر مرتفع للغاية اذا اخذنا بالحسبان انهم بس كم قطعة
الحق على الغايد@@Tarekb872
انا قلت نفس الشي, الملامه تقع على المرافق انه ما شرح لمحل الحلويات مع مين عم يتعالملوا. بانسبه الي هذا البرنامج احسن من اكبر شركه دعايه بالعالم وال10دولار اللي وطا نفسه صاحب المحل كانوا ممكن يصيرو الاف. لكن هذا هو مصير النفس الدنيئه. واللي بيقهرك انه الرجل بمطعم السمك فتح طاوله فيها سمك وسلطات وفواكه بحر ب28دولار. بجد حلويات الاميرالجديده مش بس نفس دنيه!!! كمان حرامي.

Love how natural Sonny is💪no bs, no life stories, no ads, just food. Respect
Sending my immense love to all Lebanese brothers from Greece, such an amazing cuisine and culture!
All the love to our beloved greek people. ❤️
I really appreciate you for coming to my country, and giving it exposure after we've been through so much adversity. Been following for a long time and watching the videos, much love brother.
All the food looks so good and clean lebanon is impressive
Lebanese people are very nice.
@@rhino6139understatement they're absolutely lovely!
@@rhino6139as a lebanese, I'd say we're nice people but we sometimes think too highly of ourselves
@altair_levantine my mom is French canadian/lebanese, and my dad is Dominican/Barbadian. I think it is an inherent trait among all people to develop an ego from their pride, some more than others, but still there.
Dude lebanese food is top no doubt
Sonny you did a great job of promoting Lebanon the food looks magnificent 😊
Lebanon is definitely a foodie destination. It might not be on everyone’s list but it probably should be.
This was enough to convince me! Never even heard of Lebanese food!!
And it's the most gay-friendly Arab nation.
@@SuperWildsnorlaxalso most Christian 🤔
@@SuperWildsnorlaxPhoenician not Arab!
(Kidding I just wanna stir up an argument)
Bread purse 🔥
As I'm Lebanese I'm so happy someone was happy with our food ❤️
me too🙃🙃
Are you joking?! EVERYONE is happy about the Leb food!
@@mirellajaber7704 This is making me crave lebanese food rn;-;
Having been to a LOT of countries, Lebanon easily has the best food. The food is out of this world. Everything just taste better there
This is not just a food & travel review channel ....This is a cultural documentary that makes me appreciate our planet and I will support this channel till I'm an old man. 👍🥰🥰
Hell yeah!
It is what happens when a YT "content creator" with a bandana travels abroad and starts with "economic crisis, now bread is 1 cent, lul (Must be really happy peasants now. Oops)". Meanwhile he manages his fifth fart joke and HE EVEN can pronounce "Inschallah" - which has nothing to do with the situation.
@@dna2016stay mad terrorist
As a lebanese i thank you for introducing the good things of my country to the world.
Lebanon is one of the most diverse countries in the world despite its small size
And if you want to taste the real taste of food , you should visit multiple cities as each city has its unique style.
Go to Tripoli to taste the sweets and the simple traditional foods
Go to beirut to see the modern and diverse food
And go check the traditional food in a peaceful experience in the mount lebanon
You will have so much fun and much appreciated experience
What is the best period of the year to visit your country in your opinion?
@@youriefavre9003summer and winter ,winter there is snow everywhere in the mountains ,and summer you can go to the beach plus go to the mountains also 😊
What's the best way to travel to other cities from beirut?
Is there any public transport?
@@JAYfromTHEworldbuses and taxis are the only public transportations available
@@JAYfromTHEworld there is absolutely no public transport provided by the government. You could always take a taxi, though.
Always a pleasure going on a virtual world tour with Sonny & the crew on weekends when ur stuck at home 🏡 🌍
Fr I love it
Lol I’m on a staycation so this is like pre-travel research. 😅
الحمد الله أشوف بلادنا العربية نظيفة وتعطي العالم فكرة جميلة عن العرب شكرا شعب لبنان
Mesmerizing country beautiful culture and big history so much love to Lebanon el sham in general from 🇩🇿 🇱🇧
It is my opinion that your work is a wonderful exposure to the lives and cultures of people all over the world. The food makes me hungry, or sometimes the opposite, but I am amazed at how wonderful people are to one another (outside of Egypt). Nobel peace prize for promoting international appreciation on a food fundamental level.
11:22 my heart sunk when the guy in camo seemed to walk right up to you🤣🤣like Egypt just here we go again
Who?
i noticed it too but he didn't get interrupted thankfully
The cut that happened immediately after that was suspicious. I think Sonny got harrassed again but thankfully these guys are nothing like Egypt
@@canchero724 i rewatched and on first view i didnt notice the cut but now you say it i see it lol thank you for pointing that out lol :)
@@canchero724yeah I notice that too. But I think the guy just ask him question/curious 🙃
the cuisine in the Levant region (including Lebanon) is a mixture of Meditteranean and Middle Eastern cuisines, we use simple, yet fresh ingredients, and add the perfect type of spice to each meal.
glad you did not eat a Shawarma (which is considered a street food) because if you did, it will fill you up and you won't have enough oom for any other meal :P
I love Shawarmas. I had them in Holland at a Lebanese eatery.
@@idanceforpennies281
some people have an endless stomach capacity, but for most people, do you think they will have enough room to eat other meals, after they eat a whole Shawarma wrap?
taste-wise, yes, every country, region, city, and restaurant in the whole of levant is fighting to prove they make the best Shawarma, it's not up to me to decide whether thismeal is originally Greek (Gyro) or Turkish (Doner), but we already surpassed the original with our version of it :P
glad you enjoyed the Shawerma.
@@belalabusultan5911 This is sonny we are talking about, his stomach capacity is HUGE
lebanon is a great country , love your work keep it up
love this.
As a Lebanese, I salute you for your kind words.
And one thing for sure, Lebanese food is genuinely the best in the world. And it varies, in terms of taste, from city to city.
If you are a food lover, it's a must try.
That falafel sandwich looked amazing 🤤
The video is amazing. Dear Sony the plate of baklava/sweets wasn't a rip-off. I am lebanese and this is the real pricing. Glad you enjoyed.
Speaking of the baklava, my mouth was watering!
I'm curious, are desserts considered more of a wealthy-class type of food over there? It's crazy that Sonny was able to spend under $5 for full meals and then just a handful of sweets costed him a whole $10. Even in western countries, expensive desserts don't generally cost more than an entire meal.
@@twillij29na but like cuz of the war and the inflation and the all the stuff ingredients like oil and sugar cost way more than before
@@aras0715war?
first of all there is no "real pricing" for an assortment dish as it doesn't exist in Lebanon, and even if you individually weighed all of the pieces and priced each one accordingly they won't come close to 10 dollars, more like 5 or 6 tops.
Love you Sonny Side! Thank you for bringing a smile to my face in my times of need.
Also in times of weed
The amount of history and love in this country is insane like there’s a way to do things and people don’t even know and how you do it you understand why its not just the food there’s so much too it only when you really mix the amount of love etc you feel it.
Classic simple ingredients and above all everything is fresh, thank you Sonny
I love these videos so much entertaining and making me wish I was trying all these amazing foods!!
Currently added this WONDERFUL place to my bucket list......Your video made me feel instant love for the place, food, culture and the people!!!!
Lebanese are humble, generous, & very hospitable.
And Saida is the best delicious & affordable food destination for sure!
Saida is a shitshow
Love you Lebanon from Iran😍
love Iran from Germany f.. Israhell
Im from Lebanon thank you for visiting our country we all appreciate your hard work ❤❤
Oh how I miss this beautiful country, food and people! and of course our home in the south Alma Chaab 🤩🥰🙏 God bless Lebanon 🇱🇧
amazing people ..beautiful country ..crazy big delicious variaty of food and apptizers ..awesome
Lebanese food is just outstanding
I love Lebanon… It’s a very beautiful and welcoming place… ❤️❤️
As someone who was born raised and have lived their whole life in Lebanon I love when people from outside of Lebanon taste our food and enjoy it especially because alot of people from outside of Lebanon judge us on our traditions and how we dress and our traditional food
I love Lebanese food. There is a Lebanese restaurant in my neighborhood in Orlando. I frequently eat there.
Is it Cedar's? When I was visiting Florida we went there!
Mouth-watering video of backlavas !! They look so crunchy and tasty. I wish I could decorporate myself to do this food tour in Lebanon.
very glad people there still happy & still make delicious food
As lebanese, thank you for this amazing image ❤ and you're always welcome to visit and try the food cause there is so much more 👍
i'm in love with Middle East, Soooo much great food. 🤤🤤🤤mouth watering
Sonny you always bring a smile to my face on the weekend. Loved the video and the moment when you inhale the cinnamon we need more of those psychedelic moments . :)
Yeah, that is true sunny. Have a great smile and I like your new hairstyle. Keep up the good work you’re awesome. Sincerely, Leo.
Hoping lebanon recovers. ❤ Beautiful place.
Ty for ur support
At 11 minutes 20 I thought Sonny was going to get kidnapped by some random guy in the army camo 😂 The way he was walking up on him, then noticed the camera and changed his mind 😂
As a lebanese, i felt so happy and flabbergasted to see this video, so thank you. There are much more wonderful foods than the ones in the video also! Its history (there are old roman cities still standing), culture, foods, are all beautiful but lebanese take pride in their hospitality the most. Hoping lebanon recovers ❤ 🇱🇧
Not very often do I bust out laughing from a food review. I’m officially a new fan!! 😂😊😊
the roasting of Egypt never ends 🤣
losing my mind laughing about how sonny took a biggggg hit before the fish 😭😭
Thx for giving us a peek into Libanon 🇱🇧 I hope the situation will get better!
Lebanon falafel and kunafa is my favorite ❤
The old man is named Abou Rami. He is known for being the only one in the shop who rolls the falafel sandwiches. He's very lovely and he's been doing this for years, and it's a family-owned business! Definitely my favorite falafel in the country, alongside a small corner shop in Tripoli.
منيح ما عرف شو معنى ابو العبد
When a seafood place just throws some salt on their stir fried seafood, that's when you know it's good. They're confident that the prawns are fresh and sweet enough in themselves!
Can’t believe I get to watch these videos for free!! They are so good! Lebanese food looks amazing.
Lebanese people are usually very friendly, in my experience. The food is delicious.
I love watching this because it’s my home country hope u liked it!
Finally a video of Lebanon in Saida a much underated tourist attraction! Saida is full if history, culture and the nicest people you'll ever meet! As for food, it is DELICIOUS & AFFORDABLE and I'm from Beirut saying that!
No disrespect to Joinieh ir Byblos or Batroun other places as such, but they've been played out too much it is time to check out other places too around Lebanon!
Oh my God I'm so so sooo happy you made a video in Lebanon, I'm half lebanese on my dads side and lebanese food and culture is so amazing!! One of my favorites is kibbeh nayyeh 😊💗
:) I'm happy u like it is like it too lol
Lebanese food is unbeatable I am lebanese and you just never get bored of the lebanese food
I don't think the dessert guy overcharged you. Nutty sweets like baklava are expensive and those had a lot of cashew and pistachios.
I paid like £5 for 4 pieces of baklava in a restaurant in the UK
I am a middle eastern and he is definitely overcharged him unfortunately , this amount of money can buy literally so many pieces you can't imagine 😅
Yes he did😂
Ofcourse. No one is denying they're expensive af. But bro saw he is a tourist and was like "aight, ima just rob this guy since he doesnt know the prices anyways"
It should've cost 4 $ Max
That pink thing is very good. We put it in a biscuit and then eat it.😊😊😊
First time i see Sonnys videos, get hungry, and can actually order delivery for the food i see in the video👀
The woman at 17:06 was smiling awfully hard at Sonny fitting in.
😂
Lebanese food is so good, and I've not tried enough proper stuff. But when I find a more Lebanese recipe for something I find it's almost always the best flavour and texture etc.
As a Lebanese i appreciate your visit in our beautiful country ❤❤
Then stop charging tourists 10 times the actual price once you know they are foreigners 😂😂😂
@@MrAno-op2mj ok
@@MrAno-op2mjthey never do this
THANK YOU FOR NOTICING US! I LOVE FATTE! (The food you ate)
In Lebanon, the culinary scene stands out. While you've experienced street food, many regular restaurants tend to be on the pricier side.
But Lebanon currently faces challenges in waste management, and trash can be observed everywhere. The educational system has its limitations, with quality education often reserved for those who can afford private institutions. The social dynamics can sometimes feel patriarchal, with a noticeable emphasis on male dominance.
However, for food enthusiasts with a budget, Lebanon offers more than just street food. Numerous chefs and restaurants serve exquisite dishes. While the food can be exceptional, other aspects of the country might not meet every traveler's expectations.
*I swear Sonny is like the only TH-camr that can make me laugh consistently*
I want to try Lebanese food!! Looks delicious!
You just can't go wrong with Lebanese food.
thats what i tell all my friends who ask me about lebanese food , just go eat at any lebanese place u will like it
The Arabian music in the background is mandatory in every Muslim country video😂
except Lebanon is not a muslim country :/
Bro lebanon isn’t a Muslim country coming from a lebanese
It isn't a muslim country tho, there are muslim people but it isn't
Yes but i am from lebanon and it isn’t a muslim country
Congrats for visiting our country 😊
I highly suggest you try Basturma Bedo or Basturma Mano in Bourj Hammoud, close to Beirut. They're very famous for their sujuk shawarma which not a lot of shawarma places have there. The Lebanon series slays so far
Also abou joseph in sin el fil
I might give it a shot when I visit Lebanon again.
Show us Sonny more Lebanon especially the mountain restaurants 😂😂😂Gosh i miss that country
I don't have my passport but dam I think I want to go to Lebanon for a vacation seem like a cool place and the prices are right up my alley...❤❤❤
That country deserves all the tourism. Lebanon is a great country.
Lebanese food is huge here in Ottawa, I love it and this looks so good.
That zaatar donut blew my mind, never seen it in Australia despite going to Lebanese bakeries for 30 years.
Its called kaak abou arab, its just amazing specially if ypu get it from the abou arab stores
Was very happy to see you visiting my hometown Saida, thank you for this wonderful video.
Thanks for visiting Lebanon my country and i hope u enjoyed this experience ❤ Btw the falafel you had is the Best Falafel in Lebanon 🎉
About time to visit Lebanon Sonny!!
Saida aka Sidon is one of the oldest cities in the world.
Home of the ancient Phoenicians.
All of the food looks amazing ❤
as a lebanese im very happy hes the only youtuber trying lebanese food that ive seen in my life! mashallah
As someone who is from Saida, Lebanon where the video was taken, I would like to thank you for coming. And I want to apologize on behalf of our city, if you felt that the price of the sweets was a rip off. You’re welcome anytime in the future, there’s a lot more of nice places in the city. And I am ready whenever you want to come, you’ll be rent and food free for all the trip. 🙏🏻
i am lebanese byt i left a year ago due to the crisis
Sorry, could you please tell me the location of these restaurants? I would love to try them out so much
8:47 Lebanese people, is that plate worth $10? My guess is yes. I remember going to a Lebanese pastry shop in Berlin and I was surprised at how much everything was. My Syrian friend assured me it was the normal price for Berlin and in Syria and Lebanon.
10 is a little too much but still fair! Good baklava needs high quality ingredients and you would be surprised how much nuts are in those things. Especially pistachios and cashews which are already not the cheapest nuts you can find. As an Arab myself I can tell you that baklava and other sweets from good shops are seen as a treat for special occasions and if you receive a baklava tray from guests for example you know and appreciate the value.
@@a.ha.5210 ok, so a little bit too much but not 5 times more like Sonny says?
I am not bad-mouthing Sonny, I just think he doesn't realize that what he ate there was pretty close to ten bucks. Also of he is not naming and linking the places there is little reason for them to flow him some goods.
No It's not worth it ... they over- charged him
I had to laugh at the pillar of salt story and your wife's reaction, so great. The food looked so yummy. I love those cheese pies, I used to live close to a Lebanese bakery and they were such a treat on cool fall mornings.
That's so much food looks delicious! Here in Canada i couldn't imagine how much that would cost would love to live there some day
