We just came back from medellin. You missed the best chicharrones at rancheros! We loved the people there the most; so warm and gracious.

[@JordanandEmily]

Great excuse to go back 😉 try the good chicharron

[@yourlocalexplorers]

watching this really made us hungry guys🤩 love the energy of this episode!

[@JordanandEmily]

Thanks so much 😊 there's some good things on offer in Medellin that's for sure!

[@suayhughes8103]

Enjoy your day guys. Great video

[@JordanandEmily]

Thanks Suay 😀 😊

[@DikWhite]

So much good food to choose from, great DIY tour!

[@JordanandEmily]

Thanks! 😊

[@MegaGangsta4life]

This is a very high quality video!

[@JordanandEmily]

Thanks so much! 😊 glad it came out well!

[@SammyandTommy]

Everything looks sooo good 😭😛 could def go for ANY of this right now!!

[@JordanandEmily]

Honestly amazing haha such big portions too! 🤤

[@denisewilson8465]

Great tour! Just found you guys and have subscribed. Thank you for sharing!

[@JordanandEmily]

Thanks so much 😀 😊 We love getting comments like this! Welcome to the channel!

[@-m-travels801]

Nice video! I don’t know why i found this video and as a Paisa I need to comment: you essentially ate 3 times the same thing: Bandeja Paisa is the base for the Cazuela and the Calentado, that’s why the 3 of them have beens. Powdered meat is ment to be just like it was served, it’s just meant to be mixed with all the other ingredients. It’s a shame you didn’t try good buñuelos but it is definitely not sweet.

[@JordanandEmily]

Ooohhh haha we thought they were a bit similar. It's definitely a shame about the buenelos, next time!

[@juliannedean537]

Lots and lots of yummy looking food. Lucky you did share your meals. I’m still not sold on the hot chocolate with cheese though, still really weird to me. Miss you both, love you, mum.xx 💕

[@JordanandEmily]

It is really weird hahaha Love you miss you!

[@linamarcelayates2434]

The video says street food but there’s literally no street food shown. Show us some chuzos, chinchurria, barriga, orejas, arepa de queso, maduro con queso, so many fruits and juices too from actual street vendors. Medellin is full of great street food, get out and adventure!

[@JordanandEmily]

We'll have ti next time! I think we definitely need a local guide though 😄 it's so big!

[@RafaelEscandon-f6r]

In Colombia we call street food to any meal taken out of home 😂

[@alejandraa.9394]

Nahhh but the real streat food is like Lina said; I get a chunchurria for example is not for everyone, it definitively isn't for me xD but that is the real experiencie of the street food of Medellín. Another street food I would recommend is churros, obleas, solteritas... and if it's from an old lady, the better!!! Always support the locals, not the big chains.

[@benburns5995]

Hi Jordan and Emily, looks like you both were in a food coma after all those different dishes and drinks. The Hot Chocolate with melted cheese inside seems so unusual. Whatever cheese they put inside it is sure stringy. Missed seeing any dogs on this video. It is funny that the waiter noticed your picture of your pup as a Screensaver.

[@JordanandEmily]

It was super weird with all the cheese!! 😄 but yummy. Don't worry about the lack of dogs and animals there's LOTS on the way haha 😆

[@upsguy323]

wild that you went to mondonogs for the bandeja paisa but went to hatoviejo for recalentado . which is basically el menu del dia for breakfast and could have gotten it anywhere for 10000cop

[@JordanandEmily]

Good to know! thanks!

[@hayleyrichardson9203]

As always I'm feeling very hungry after your food video! Note to emoji makers - make an emoji out of Jordan's face after that casserole dish 😃

[@JordanandEmily]

hahahah yes! I always get so hungry even editing them 🤣

[@luisamariarestrepocelis2048]

I love my city medellin, and yes definately we eat well thank god.

The paisa tray was missing the blood sausage and chorizo.

[@JordanandEmily]

😢 Next time!

[@davidsimpson2905]

Nice video; I'll be in Medellín in December. If you ever want to try the best bandeja paisa in Colombia, go to La Gloria de Gloria in Medellín. Their bandeja paisa will easily feed three people!

[@JordanandEmily]

Ooohhh I wish we knew that when we were there 😄 the one we had was... dissapointing 😞

[@ptm8375]

And its easily 55000 peso..at gloria no plata.. instead of 15.000 elsewhere.

[@PeakBagger999]

All that food looks so delicious. You missed their soups though like sancocho, ajiaco, and sopa de lentejas (lentil soup).

[@JordanandEmily]

We tried Ajiaco in Peru! 🤣 wish we got to try more!

[@zeuskert257]

La comida colombiana es muy deliciosa, el problema de que no guste es porque los extranjeros combinan mal los alimentos... Por ejemplo: la bandeja paisa lleva muchos alimentos que son a base de sal y ahí se agrega arepa y aguacate que no son nada salados para generar un contraste

[@JordanandEmily]

Damn! We wish it came with instructions 😄

[@andresdelosrios9980]

Así es.. en otros países se come demasiadas especias y cosas que hacen que sepa a todo menos a lo que te estás comiendo..

[@damelo_2173]

The “like sand”, dry ground meat at Mondongos is a sign of a bad-quality restaurant, good ground meat on a bandeja paisa is supposed to be juicy, fresh and in bigger chunks (not sandy as the one they served you). The chocolate con queso, yum, I’d have a big baguette or some colombian bread to spread the cheese onto!

[@JordanandEmily]

This makes so much sense! We didn't think it would be like that on purpose haha 😆

[@amonzart2379]

The majority if restaurantes serve meat in Pandeja paisa that way sadly. It is really hard to find an actual good one.

[@reycondor8083]

Excellent i made a video about cololbian food as well. Thanks for visiting my country

[@JordanandEmily]

I'll check it out!

What are the must eat foods of Australia?????????????? for yankee tourists?

[@JordanandEmily]

Hahahaha thats a great question. Can't go wrong with a bunnings snag! Which is literally a bbq sausage and bread from a hardware store 😄

[@amonzart2379]

You should give it a try to costeña food ( colombian caribbean) to know what is actual colombian flavors

[@JordanandEmily]

Next time! ❤️

[@giancarlocastano3058]

Hey cool building, I😊 recently stayed there #aianaverde

[@JordanandEmily]

The one with holes in the walls? 🤣 Was a lovely building just wish the walls were shut haha

[@krishnaroo]

Lo malo fue comparar al buñuelo con una donut, son comidas distintas. Por eso no les gustó.

[@JordanandEmily]

😄 they are very different

[@krishnaroo]

@@JordanandEmily Se combina con chocolate o café al desayuno, ahí está el truco si no eres de acá. Claro, suponiendo si te gusta combinación de salado y dulce.

[@RicardoLMarquezM]

You went to the worst restaurant to eat Tipico: Mondongo`s

[@JordanandEmily]

😄 that must be why the food was so bad. But the restaurant was soooo busy! Why was everyone there if it's meant to be the worst!? 🤣

[@fred-ara]

@@JordanandEmily because they got the best Mondongos, thats another awesome tipical dish you must try!

[@fred-ara]

@@JordanandEmily also the buñuelos, that ones dosnt looked like the better ones. Try La Especial ones the next time

WELCOME TO MEDELLIN 🎉On March 17, TIME magazine included Medellin among the 50 best destinations in the world in 2023. And in January THE NEW YORK TIMES also included Medellin among the 50 best destinations in the world in 2023. ❤ Medellin is the #1 city in quality of life in Colombia, it has already surpassed Cartagena in international tourists, also Medellin is an intelligent tourist destination and is a special district of science, technology and innovation.

[@JordanandEmily]

Thank so much! Such a cool city 😊

[@jcasalsero99]

There are much better places in Medellin to eat great traditional food "Bunuelo is not a donut" we usually eat it with coffee or hot chocolate (any time)

[@JordanandEmily]

yum!

[@ArtificialintelligenceDesign]

Ok ...good video .... All of get it wrong ... Bandeja paisa ...you do not eat it one item at a time ....that wrong ... You mixed it...for instance ..chicharron together with the beans ... Or perhapps the powder meat with rice and beans mixed together .. Or perhaps ..chorizo mixed with ateoacand beans ... The secret is to mix it with all different ingridients ...mix it all ... By the way...the egg should be as soft as possible ...so when you mix it with rice and beans the juice from the yellow part of the egg runs into the other ingredients.. Mix it up.....that iscthe secret.. And you will never want to have anything else...

[@JordanandEmily]

Woah! Thanks for all the info!

[@nicolassantamaria1228]

bin grad in kolumbien und alles was ich will isn döner mit extra fleisch

[@JordanandEmily]

Hahaha yum

[@yvsb0920]

Como colombiana, debo decir que la gastronomia de medellin es una de las mas pobres de colombia, deben viajar a otras ciudades y comer otros platos mas elaborados.

[@JordanandEmily]

oooo dinsaur tracks sounds awesome!

[@TheRunnerhell]

i´m from Medellín and you can find a better bandeja paisa that one looks horrible haha.

[@JordanandEmily]

yeah we got stitched up! haha we figured there had to be better somewhere!

[@johnrussell-bk7lv]

Sorry, but Colombian food is crap. If you don't get sick of tasting the same three bland flavors every time you eat out somewhere it's tolerable, but usually you're just eating cheap empanadas or rice, beans, fries and unseasoned meat. Anything outside of that is usually a bad rip off of some kind of foreign dish or some inane gimmick like "flavorless pizza in a cone" or "flavorless arepas with our signature flavorless sauce." It's no good. I just cook at home because I, with almost zero culinary experience, can at least make things that that taste like something more than sand. I love Colombians, but I'm pretty sure they're unaware that there are other condiments besides salt and mayo. Maybe it's different if you go to fancy restaurants and things? I don't know. I'm a poor backpacker so I don't do that. I just know that most places I've been have at least halfway decent street food and local diners.

[@JordanandEmily]

We thought we just got unlucky :( I enjoyed the hot chocolate and cheese though haha, strange, but good!

[@johnrussell-bk7lv]

@@JordanandEmilyDon't get me wrong, I've had some good food in Colombia. It just doesn't measure up to what I've had pretty much anywhere else.

[@Aerotyler23]

true, colombian food is crap. the only flavor they add is maggi chicken cubes to any gravy dishes

[@EvEv-y3q]

Sorry guys but u visited the worst places to eat our food. Overpriced and bad quality :/

[@JordanandEmily]

Wheere should we go next time?

[@EvEv-y3q]

@@JordanandEmily For Colombian Food Maybe "El Trifasico", "La Antigua" or "Versalles", The last two are just in the downtown. But I recommend to visit some Villages but Prefer Mom's or Grandma's Magic!. But I invite u to taste our hot dogs, burguers and more they are too different. "Pandebonos", "Pandeyuca" , "Almohabanas" are another kind of delicous bread instead of "Buñuelos". Ur welcome.

[@AndyWilson-gg6tz]

Ive lived in Medellin for 2 years now and believe me what you two ate is not a good representation of street food . To be honest Colombian street food is SHIT . Much netter off with Venezualan . Next time you do a report please do proper research.

[@JordanandEmily]

Better get to Venezuala!
