When we talk about influence along the Eastern coasts of Africa, it's impossible to act like Africa has contributed nothing and the culture is from somewhere else. Exchange of cultures is key. Plus understanding that kenya has so many different cultures according to the area. Assuming we borrowed heavily from India and they never borrowed from us is hilarious. People have been visiting us for several hundred centuries. Probably thousands. It is likely the interaction created the India today and the Coasts today. Exchange. If coconut grows at any Coast the locals will use it accordingly.

I like the way Mark put it this way: what a harmony and it rejoices in your mouth. Not sure if Mark is also a musician but by the musical definition the food must be in a glorious state of taste. Mark is so awesome, there is no boundaries in his world. He can relate to everyone, every culture, every land. Our world would be a much better place to live in with people like him everywhere. God bless you brother. And yea, I love africa.

I've not seen much footage regarding the various African cultures. It appears to be so vast and varied. Thank you for doing this series. It has been enlightening indeed. I'm looking forward to trying some of these dishes too Perhaps I'll attempt to prepare a few, but thanks again to you, Ying, and Micah for sharing your adventures and lives with us. Your videos always bring me joy.

Mark, you are so genuine and you always give appreciate people for making a great food. And you are a real ambassador of the culture. At the end of the video you mentioned that Yusuf's wife doesn't want to film her face on Media and you communicated to the viewers that really showed me your genuenity. Keep posting videos

This is exactly how I watched my mother make samosas in Bangladesh through out my childhood. Sometimes with beef/chicken/prawn or vegetable fillings. Exactly how she she used make the samosa roti and fold them into these triangles of joy served with some chilli or tomato sauce

I enjoy your videos very much, and the way you interact with the people is amazing, it's as if you don't meet a stranger and you have this glow about yourself that is irresistible to not be around you. You have a wonderful personality.

Lot of Indian influence in kenyan cuisine the preparation methods and even names are same. Lot of Indians in Kenya over the last 500 years that explains the influence. It would be interesting to read on swahili cuisine history.
