America's Best Oysters!! 🦪 SEAFOOD TOUR in Charleston, South Carolina!

[@MrCalman65]

Dad was an oyster farmer in Australia, I resented it as a kid, back in the 70's, it was a hard life. Technology has made it a lot easier these days and you can make a good living out of it. Looking back, we had a good solid upbringing and being out on the water all the time kept us in touch with nature and gave us a good work ethic

[@takeda780]

Going from place to place, seeing cultures, tasting food, travelling around, meeting people. Honestly marks kid has the best childhood ever, haha.

[@andreastw3638]

Micah maybe not too appreciated now as a kid.... but when hes gettin older... He will missed that day... Time is precious

[@marilynalvarez9951]

Wow, very impressed with Josh from Barrier Island Oyster Co, the amount of knowledge and respect for his craft was admirable, well done. Everything looks so delicious and well sourced, outstanding!

[@nervousbabbs2769]

his knowledge and preserving of the habitat was mindblowing,awesome,and heart warming all in one. such a great group of people.

[@deanawells4395]

Saturday s with Mark are always the best days ever. I lived in Charleston SC for a few years back in 1984. It was a fantastic place to live. The basket markets where still there….what a great place to live.

[@crystalwz]

There's something so satisfying with watching Mark eat, especially oysters. His positivity is just so inspiring and soothing to watch

[@jamesdean4349]

MMMMMM OH WOW ITS SO JUICY

[@christianhansen3292]

Mark is the best food blogger, eats some of the finest food in the world but isn’t pretentious and you can tell it’s an authentic reaction.

Oh wow!

I like how you always take your family with you on your trips, must be an amazing life

[@FlavorofMind]

Mark looks so happy and in his element sitting at a table with a giant pile of beautiful oysters 🙂 That's some fresh eating right there!

[@adamcarter699]

The family all watch him, we love his trade mark "lean over" when he tastes lol

[@FlavorofMind]

@@adamcarter699 haha - that lean is definitely a trademark by now 🤣

[@forteandblues]

Thank you so much, Mark, for teaching me about the amazingness of my own country. America is so large and it’s so hard to understand the differences in states and cultures within the United States. Think about how close France, Italy and Germany are to each other, and how different their cultures and food are. American states have a similar independence, and food culture. It’s amazing.

[@forteandblues]

I’m from Colorado, I might have to plan a trip to go over there for some seafood!

Love where your videos are going Mark. Have always entertained and given me a window to global cuisine at a humble level. Doing a lot of these behind the scenes, is deserving to your hard work and consistency. 🙏🏽 bless you and your family pop!

[@j2tharomeone5]

Mark, 29:25 was my EXACT same reaction when I first had that plate, plus a tear came out from how delicious it was. I'm soo glad you went to Chubby Fish! Along with the feel of the neighborhood, this was an unforgettable dining experience!

[@robroaring7175]

I saw your comment and was waiting for it. He reacts so well with each bite…. But with that one, it truly blew his mind. It looks and sounds mind blowing! So lucky you’ve gotten to try it!

Marks smile and squint you know it's good I love him and his family so nice respectful just a joy to watch him eat

[@allyknows6328]

Wow Mark, thank you, and WOW Charleston, beautiful food. I love how the whole Oyster farming was explained and how they celebrate and respect the whole eco system of Oyster farming. Just amazing! 👏

Me checking on how far it is to Charleston just to eat at Chubby Fish! That is one of the most interesting menus I've ever seen!! I would have never thought of incorporating shrimp into a bone marrow dish, but I'm so here for it!!! You can tell the chef is so proud of his food and I have to try it!!! Great video as always Mark!

[@exploringgc]

[@exploringgc]

@@mentalasylumescapee6389 Yeah that's what intrigues the viewers more 😅 it might be all a marketing technique, but still it seems so realistic.

[@rajeshgumber363]

Apparently there a course where they teach you to roll your head back and close your eyes and say Wow on the way back a few times and you also get a certificate and a Lemon at the end from what I've heard, which you can squeeze on any dish! On the certificate it says "Oh Wow, oh wow ,oh wow and ho ho ho " you can then also apply for Santa Claus jobs.

[@beefarlee]

What a wonderful human being! Always brings authentic joy to everything. We love you Mark! And those oysters look incredible! I’m gonna have to make the drive from Mississippi soon!

[@bosstheross]

Quite frankly Marc Wiens watching your episodes brings me not only very useful & delicious information but hours of joy . Thank you !

[@michaelmurphy6662]

HI Mark and your dear family. My family recently began watching your travels. We are going on a 10 day Boston/Maine trip this month inspired by you! We have reservations at the Union Oyster House and will later make way to the Cabbage Island Clam Bake before heading to Bar Harbor. We're big seafood lovers of all kinds! My wife is Thai and I'm from Miami. We're in Houston now. We never thought we'd be going to Charleston, but that changed after seeing this experience of yours! Thanks much... The Murphy's

[@travelingblues1596]

I grew up in North Charleston! Awesome place to live and eat!!

[@rforrelaxtation6828]

Wow, this sounds like an incredible seafood adventure! Exploring Barrier Island Oyster Company and witnessing the production of top-quality oysters must be a treat for the senses. It's fascinating how oysters can hold hidden treasures within them, creating a delightful surprise with every bite. The journey continues as you visit seafood restaurants in Charleston, experiencing the farm-to-table process firsthand. The combination of fresh oysters and delectable dishes sounds like a culinary delight. Your seafood tour of Charleston is definitely a mouthwatering experience filled with flavors and discoveries. Enjoy every moment and savor the taste of these oceanic wonders!

[@midget_princess2200]

That bone marrow dish looked epic

[@maxionparker9878]

Native South Carolina here!!! Once you've tasted our unique seafood and BBQ, you'll be back ......I PROMISE!!!! Nothing else compares to those oysters though. I'm sure that hot sauce is Texas Pete.

Mark, I think you misidentified The Ordinary as Chubby Fish at 11:31 minutes 😬 … Regardless, love seeing you featuring Charleston. 👍🏻 It’s great place to live and more people need to know about it!

[@juanwick523]

You're right. That definitely wasn't Chubby Fish.

[@vincyagain]

I love watching Mark talk about and eat oysters. You’re the only one who does it justice on KZbin!

[@10MinuteMoments]

Thank you for always making my day memorable with your travels!

[@publicart_tour]

The location title of the first place at 11:28 should be 'The Ordinary,' but it says 'Chubby Fish.' Friendly reminder. 😁 I am immensely enjoying your great content and admire your professionalism. 🙇🏻

Mark as always you bring the best to us and I really want to commend that chef, because he not only prepared your meals, but explained what each dish was. and when you can get a chef to do such , that is definitely an honor... I hope to visit this plain , it definitely will go on my wish list..

Been a long time follower Mark. Back when you first got started. My wife and I have your shirts mi ped mi kin. My wife is Issan Ban Mon Chaiyaphum and we live here in Texas. If it ain’t spicy we won’t eat it. Enjoy your tours and your incredible variety of foods your have eaten in the past 6 years or so. You have grown simply because of your frankness and honesty. Never see you….welll….never say never but being disgusted with some orders. Looks like you always have respect and tolerance. Believe this as I believe that you can eat everything that doesn’t eat you first.

[@SKD_TRASH_at_Blazblue]

Funny thing is, I've never been much of an oyster person. Simply because when it comes to raw food like oysters, I'm still very skeptical & don't have my full trust in them yet. But if there was ever 1 person who could convince me that oysters are really amazing to eat, than it would be of course none other than the man, the legend himself, Mark Wiens. So thank you bro 🙏
