value and we’re gonna share it all it’s a cornmeal
you can kind of play with it you can kind of mix
it and then you can kind of scoop up with some of
the little fish and which is cooked with tomatoes
crunchy they have a little bitterness
to them right and then they’re cooked
down with those tomatoes so that gives it
that tartness okay and that fresh tripodi’s
have arrived but yawn that the vegetable
is called bogus’ action yeah you know I
don’t think I’ve ever had that before I’m
not okay yeah it’s not it’s not as common
as some of the other vegetables and I
it’s freshly fried it’s right off the
hot grill you can see the golden bubbles
that have the blisters of the chapati
a little bit gummy
like the gas okay but just a little bit maybe
I just a monkey my indeed that is Argus 1400
yes a tumor or the stomach sour Asante

not advisable to eat too much give Eddie
along with fish and vegetable because you
might get kind of bloated and have gas

some intestines in here but it’s mostly tripe
and onions cooked down the onions and tomatoes

definite like natural and a grassy taste it

gonna chase it with the chapati I love like the
bitter flavor of those fish and then that crunch
the saltiness cooked down with those tomatoes
and those onions off of your final dishes that
get dirty which is beans and there’s corn in

ingredient in her chapatis that I I only know

now that she does mention it I can I can taste
it there’s a little bit of peanut butter in these
chapatis so you taste that nuttiness and they are
excellent that chappati was amazing and it was

side that’s where the soup is yeah that’s this
cow head soup which is in sizzling in a barrel

there are just these giant all other the heads but
the heads are tossed in chopped up but you can
still see some of the skin the fur the hair is
in it’s all just the teeth they’re all tossed in
the soup so that all boils down and then they’re
also doing some grilled beef as well so we’re
gonna we’re gonna eat it all but this this is a
spot right here Oh James is cooking we got our
tray of meat in Ghana oh yeah we just want you
gonna try a piece of the tongue which is what I’m
very excited oh it’s so tender so it’s a barrel
it’s so flavorful because I know the meat chunk
here or this one I’ll dip a little bit of salt
and get some of that peanut peeling this kind
of looks like maybe maybe a piece of the shin
it’s so tender it’s really milky
yeah it’s like it’s so rich okay
so rich on the merits it’s actually it
is milking it is really oily it almost
is like melted like cow butter really
cow tasting really meaty tasting really
grassy tasting but really rich and hearty

yeah that is like it’s yeah it’s a
natural route yeah it almost smells
like ginseng is like ginseng yeah yeah or
it is like it’s like it’s like sweet like
honey actually it’s sweet like honey and
then and then it’s like a little bitter
as we were eating the root then Nevada decided to
buy Kenya Kenya bracelet I needed
one but yeah I’m still eating that
it’s really good that is like a that is like a
sweet snap had some of the best most like thick
rich beef soup yeah cow head soup exactly
I’ve ever had every now mister program the
program yes to just go around and eat today
as much as we can that’s the brilliancy of
who yes sue just hematite together now you look
at this because this case we are walking towards
the market now and there’s some more food
stalls there that we’re gonna check out next
democracy the market eat some more food we made
it to DA Goretti market at the entrance there’s
lots of clothes and shoes and then we’ll all
be coming up to the vegetable section as well
so walking through some of the back streets
and get to some of the restaurant areas
there’s bananas avocados bomba oranges come back
oh yeah yeah yeah we met up with Vincent who is
from the market and he’s taking us around walking
us through the stall to to a food stall or Dingle
oh yeah because we haven’t had Dingle yeah so
this is like a mixed plate so we came kind of
to the back of the market this is the spot they
have sort of a mixed plate that includes beans and
cabbage and Bengal which it’s dengler egg which
is the which is the green gram which are mung
beans and so that’s what we’re gonna eat you get a
mixed plate they scoop it all out and then you can
eat it with chapatis but we’ve already had quite
a few chapati so maybe we’ll just eat the beans
and the cabbage yeah next how is it Vincent is it
good very good how is the food very nice the best
James and I are starting to get a little full
so we’ve decided not to have a chapati but this
would normally be served with the chapati
but on this this is the whole mixed plate
so all the dishes they have you can see the
beans on this side there’s cabbage there’s
a potato right in the center there’s some
beef and the green ground bingo begin next
plate of food yeah here we go it’s just
like party mm-hmm home cooking and you’ve
got the starches in there the beans so you’re
eating the pork and the port method chapati
and those are the fish that we ate at the
beginning of the day that same fish those dried
fish they’re from Lake Victoria right from Lake
Victoria we’re emerging from the market now back
onto the main road serious road work happening
here and James was telling me because of the rains
it’s been like a swimming pool here yeah this
would all fill up with water that’s a lot of rocks
we might have put some of James’s friends
and we’re stopping at the unity cafe hotel
to eat some more food okay so they have quite
a few things on their menu but they have some
of the similar things that we hate so I’m gonna
try kimochi Bangu I think this is a bamboo this
dangle this is Minji yeah the beef okay but
a mixed plate of rice there’s rice there is
dango there’s another type of other piece Minji
please please yeah and then beef beef stew yeah
keep still okay with rice it’s a little bit plain
but it’s good the meat is tender and stewed with
tomatoes you’ve got I really like the mung
beans mandazi is like a it’s like a fried
dough so then for this dish they chop it up into
bite-sized pieces they mix it with a soup and you
can see some of the beans in there and yeah
this is we’re all sharing that in the center
this is actually my first time to have that
let’s think that’s good it’s like it’s like
because my Nagi is a little sweet yeah
my daddy is a little bit sweet but then
mixed with the salty soup it’s like the
contrast of sweet and salty ham yeah
that’s the highlight of a meal right there
okay as under sauna we just finished eating
and these are jeans and Sprint’s or just
me you know they have a shoe shop here so
spiders very you guys hang up and we’re just
discussing the next food that we’re gonna eat
Thank You Santa family say ok
how can I see don’t you see is
it a game oh this is thick it’s not as a designer
that is the conflict we walked over to a
place that specializes in kal foot boiled
Cowboys but yeah that’s the whole foot he has
been boiling in that milky drop this will be
my first time for a cow foot like this oh
there’s the front foot yeah you want some
fried foot – we can have so you just take some of
these pieces you take the bone you can take the
it’s mostly skin okay I kind of an oily skin
piece yeah its skin but it’s been cooked for
probably so long that has this crunch to it and
this one is the plain just to boil the cow leg
now it has a little more grizzle to it that
is like the ultimate amount of textures in
your mouth at lunch its jiggly its grizzly its
fatty its crunchy cartilage II bits in collagen
bit yeah it’s like a an amusement-park of
textures in your mouth inside the bottle
and that’s how that’s how it mixes with the
salt – great job so it’s boom like the foam
yeah exactly still it gives it like a whipping
shake and that stirs it up that creates the cap
of Macao soup cappuccino effect and gives
it that foam on top and that’s why it’s so
frothy sounds nice when he slams that suit
in the jug that’s such a satisfying like it
is our second beef soup of the day but
this one when you can see them shake it
and again it has that a real frothiness on
top so it’s like a it is like a cappuccino
oh yeah that is salty it’s beefy and butter it
does taste like melted butter it’s so thick and
so rich and then with that marrow yeah that’s
hot oh yeah how are you conga list on the way
drinking hot soup and there’s no air flow in
there so we all stepped outside to get some
airflow we’re all sweating after that soup that
cow hook that was that was a unique thing to eat
backtick dagger at the corner and
there’s one more kenyan street food
that we need to eat to complete this and
ultimate Kenya Nairobi Street boudoir
yeah you can see the smoke from the fire
hahaha James suffocates but it’s stuffed
with something that’s the natural thing
on it you can choose you have the grill
it kicks it off the grill he chops it on the
cutting board and you just eat it from there
we’re starting with some masala it was like
a stuffed sausage at first but I think that
is all-natural all-natural stuffing yeah I
put some of that in
is nice somebody’s there oh wow can you serve I
guess it’s kind of it’s probably kind of spongy
okay this one is the large intestines next yeah
Justin is so good it’s like it’s kind of
crispy my caramelized and natural tasting
with aura which is Kenyan blood sausage that’s
blood filled into their this is a favorite
street meat and yeah you can dip it into some
of that really believe that chilli sauce as well
Oh Oh woo I was so good oh I have missed
it oh it’s so good it’s not even like you
can barely take the budget more like the
condition onion onions in there it’s not
like irony you’re just kind of like truly soft
you really softened and then held together with
that intestine wrapper it’s one of the best
things and then that is tasty I didn’t know
at first but that blood sausage that we
just stayed it actually is not blood it’s
mostly minced meat the bigger fatter one
is actually the blood sausage that’s why
I didn’t have that irony bloody days this
one is the real blood sausage you can see
it’s a fat one it’s thick you can see it’s
mostly blood and there’s fat in there as well
tyloo knowing awesome dude it’s really hot that
one’s good too really good yeah you’re just kind
of falls apart in your mouth right fatty – yeah
the cow udders and that’s that big like white
lump on the grill so this is gonna be our last
meat off the grill while well that that is a
unique texture it’s like chewy but crunchy yeah
and bad even fatty very well it’s all fat really
right now basically it’s kind of like a little
bit rubbery but you kind of like juices as well
well that is that’s an interesting texture it’s
pretty good though eat it right here and then you
just continue on this is a it’s like the ultimate
meat fast food stop yeah that’s kind of greasy so
you can use a they have some newspaper in happen
that was an awesome way to end this Kenya Street
that’s so good what was your favorite meat off
the grill I like the minced meat matura oh yeah
that is it was really good the intestines are
also really good we’ve come to the end of this
