Authentic Egyptian Street Food in Cairo, Egypt 🇪🇬 PIGEON, Shawarma & Insane Desserts!

[@GarethLeonard]

THANK YOU ALL FOR WATCHING ❤on the NEXT EPISODE I will be talking about my overall experience here in Egypt; including filming issues, scammers, other KZbinrs who have had issues, and travel safety tips from solo female travelers here in Egypt. If you have any specific questions for me, please comment them below! 👇 Otherwise, big shout out to Ziad and Aladdin for taking us around, Salim (IG: @eslamabdraabo) for the incredible drone shots, and Tyler (IG: @Tylermcave) for the beautiful camera work as per usual! #TravelDeeper

[@joyceesays9919]

YOu should have told Ziad to take you to Ablaa out in Giza for the pigeons!!!

[@joyceesays9919]

BUt you were in good hands.. enjoying your vids and looking in on your other countries as well!

[@shymaaahmed495]

Glad u enjoyed it hope u didn't have any problems in filming, what did u like most in food you tried in Egypt?

[@paolagaytan6275]

I loved the food. Could you give the name of the places and in what hotel did you stay? Thanks

[@moeamry7961]

Stay away of downtown Cairo to avoid the scammers.

[@christinev6206]

In 2019, I went to visit Egypt ...Your vlogs want me to revisit again...The fun and loads of laughs you must have had...Thank you again for capturing the beauty of the people and the country...

[@jojoe.1817]

If you seriously think to revisit you should link up with an Egyptian friend that will be much more fun and helpful

[@inbetweenworlds]

Egypt is Top 1 Bucket List not just because of the pyramids but the food and people! One day... one day..... 🥰

that's Means he loves the food in Egypt 03:48 زرتها ناس طيبة وضحكتهم صافيه وناس بسيطه جدا ولا تحتاج تتكلف

The guy with you in the video he’s a real Egyptian and represents us in a great way I hope you make a lot of videos with him he has something to show 👏

[@Joe317-e2c]

Egyptian cuisine is the best food in the world , tasty ,healthy suitable to all types of people from vegetarians to meat lovers to keto , to sweet lover , very rich cuisine .

[@mido830]

It may be very tasty, but its not healthy for sure. Most if not all of the egyptian cuisine is very carb and fat heavy. We use alot of animal fat and oil in our cuisine.

[@CraigTheBrute-yf7no]

Its not that healthy

[@ctctctcctc]

Of course, it is clear that it is full of oil, unhealthy fats and sugar, but it is full of other healthy meals that are devoid of all those horrors, such as grills and breakfast meals and the many different preparation methods that keep them delicious, but they are not the priority in Cairo, but after the southern governorates they have other authentic foods and certainly Very healthy

[@esraal388]

There is no healthy traditional food, in all over the world😂😂😂 It's tasty but not healthy for sure

[@tarek12aly12]

Moat of taste food not healthy 50% if food all over the world are fried ask kfc or Mac or any food brand, even traditional food world wide should have more chillies and also sugar without any doubt,you are in trip try enjoy your time then back to do your healthy life after finish your trip

[@alaamostafa5130]

Happy to see you're having fun! Please note that the dessert place is Mandarin Queidar not El Malky. Also don't miss out on the Eid desserts! The Kahk is a must!!

[@jellyrockabean]

I miss this! Abu Haidar is one of my all-time faves - their shawarmas have an addictive quality!

[@ziadzedo]

So you've been to Egypt but now you aren't? Well I've never in my entire life found someone that chose the best option to eat a specific dish in Egypt so fun fact: Shaworma abo haider is known to be the best Egyptian style shaworma resturant So congrats you picked the right choice😃😃😂😂

[@EgyptAdventuresTravel]

Loooooove this! Pigeon is such an important Egyptian food to try, and yet it’s often tricky for me to convince my tour guests that they should try it. Glad you gave it a shot and showed us.

[@MrRolandMichel]

When I go, I will happily try the pigeon... and probably like it!

[@vibelitz9581]

[@waleedsoliman1037]

I LOVE THIS GUY , HE KNOWS HOW TO ENJOY HIS TIME HAPPY TO SEE YOU HAPPY WELCOME TO EGYPT

[@teresaharris-travelbybooks5564]

We ordered pigeon, while in Cairo. While it was deliciously seasoned, there was more bones than meat. We were told that it was good for men, which I thought was the polite way of saying that eating pigeon contributes to a mans' virility. The little dessert squares; made with semolina; are very good, very sweet. Most of the time, you will be offered a banana and some grapes for dessert. Did you try the Falafel?

[@ahmedelabody7407]

You can check out his earlier episodes trying the Egyptian Breakfast with the non-alcoholic Whiskey :D:D

[@vibelitz9581]

When u eat the pigeon u dont eat the bones u eat the rice and meat inside very good and the skin

[@toteabdalaa318]

شكرا للشاب الي معاه محترم ومثقف

[@RdGdGW]

Planning my trip to Egypt and here I am telling myself “must eat pigeon” in Cairo!!! Thank you for all these insightful travel videos!!

[@ahrulered]

Loving the Egyptian series and friendly company you found so far! Hopefully the next one won't be the last.

[@dawncharles8209]

The face after eating the deserts is everything lol. I love it

[@nadeen.wael99]

You introduced the Egyptians the way you ate the pigeon 😂😂 I like this video so much and I’m glad you love our food ♥️

Mooza is the shank(shink) the meat of the lower part of the leg between the knee and the foot.

[@nadermilite5652]

Stuffed Pigeon in Egypt is the bomb it's really good the Egyptians recipe is amazing you want find anywhere else in the world I've tried making it in my home country and no matter how many times i tried its still doesn't taste like they make it in Cairo.

[@chris_in_fl]

“Listen, I honestly don’t have that much of a sweet tooth…” (Sounds like me talking to my wife) 😂 As he’s holding his second cup of ice cream in one hand and going for his third round of desserts with the other hand. Man, I feel that…

[@sarahan5933]

I love the lense through which you showed Egypt ❤️, you have a great eye for things! I have seen a couple of videos on KZbin of people traveling to Egypt and they always seem to represent the entire country and thousands of years of civilization by showing certain improvished sides of the country or mainly focusing on the negative parts. At the end of the day every country you are going to go to has the good and the bad.

[@sheryn61]

OMG you went to Khoweider!! One of my favorite dessert shops in the whole world! I’d travel to Egypt just for that. 🥰🥰

[@joyceesays9919]

OOOhhhh, I'm so happy you got to try that - it was here in Egypt where I never got numbers - handed my ticket to the kitchen or commissary man - I've never had a mistake alllllll these years. You, my friend, got to see beyond the badly publicized parts of Egypt and had the real feel of the moderate majority. It's the vibe you put put out- you get what you give out. Power on! You remind me so much of my big brother!

[@fatmafouad152]

Gareth we all love you in Egypt

[@marinajabra6415]

You should not miss nuweiba, it's another level of relaxation.

[@mohamedhamdon7140]

You are very funny, real, humble and emotional exactly like Egyptians, I felt like you are completely Egyptian not a tourist, thanks for showing egypt so beautiful as it is and I hope you come back again just to take a photo with you ♥️

[@husseinsoliman6210]

Your my fav tour guide that went to Egypt your music your edits your soul …dude your amazing im deadass please make more vid in Egypt 🇪🇬

[@pla4825]

I totally enjoyed this video especially watching you eat a pigeon 🤣 I can’t wait to go to Egypt

[@heshamelnadi]

Gareth another absolutely brilliant vlog that had me laughing out loud throughout the whole episode. Good to see you are enjoying your food but man do you need to hit the gym when you get home (lol)! It all looked fantastic. I'm greatly looking forward to the next episode.

[@Ray-gd5ip]

Would be cool if you explored the contrasts of egypt! If you go to the newer areas like new cairo, u can see the difference of how different classes live and how there is a very large contrast in lifestyles from the rest of egypt!

[@lmaooook]

Yes I agree so much, it's like visiting a whole new world!

[@marwaelbaghdady6800]

Egyptian food is the best U made me hungry in the morning of ramadan

I can't get enough of your cairo videos... Just awhole mood

[@salmaahmed7789]

Oh, man, I eagerly wait your videos in Egypt 😍😅

[@jomanaahmed3414]

I binged all your videos in Egypt cause they were suggested for me as I'm Egyptian and man did I want to meet you after seeing how you just wanted to discover more more.I don't know if you've already left or are coming back, but Egypt is definitely a place to be, not being biased or anything, but I truly thank god I'm an Egyptian myself because I find myself going/discovering new parts of my own country; truly the traffic and overpopulation is the one thing stopping me from going anywhere. Anyhow, I salute the lovely scratch of the surface of a trip you have gone through and you definitely did all the places justice. We welcome you any time in Egypt!, we truly do love foreigners.some people more than others, do be careful as you are a foreigner and lots of people may take advantage of that. Safe travels!!

[@robertmallinder1502]

I so thoroughly enjoyed watching this episode. Well done to all involved. Absolutely brillant!!! Loved the vibe and comradery.

Noooo! The food! My husband once brought back a huge tray with a selection of the baklava type dessert from Cairo. On the plane no less. The best I have ever tasted in my life. Too bad he's not my husband any longer. I should have stayed married just so he could bring back the dessert on his visits to his mom. 🤣😂😳
