1. Just say Haven for Nigerian Food
2. Fufu is Ghanaian and what was shown in this video was what Nigerians called Poundo or Pounded Yam, which isn't Fufu
3. 22:54 Chep means rice, and Jen means Fish. Also why is that even important? Ramen means ra = pulled and men = noodles, spaghettis means = strings, pizza means = pie but no one ever explains that because it doesn't matter. Chepu jen is chepu jen.
I want to try Nigerian Food Fufu from Ethiopia
"Egusi for yo body ooo!" ❤❤❤ Htownnn! My hometown!
I enjoyed learning and seeing the various culture influenced / enriched restaurants in Houston, Texas. I was smiling as I was watching the entire episode…Now I must take a trip and stay for a few days to visit each place.
Thank for the visual experience. It was wonderful

Marcus can get down in the kitchen and the dancefloor! Really enjoyed this video.
you saying the red habanero is mild compared to the yellow one shows me you know nothing about your ingredient
Mannish water is one of my favs.
Well you don't have to go out of your way to get the foods you grew up on if you simply go back to Africa. There I fixed the problem 😊
The dance was harlem shake, the rockaway, with running man mixed. Called amother name
😇💖💎
My love she is beautiful and from west Nigeria 🇳🇬! The people and the culture is so beautiful and humble! She lives in Houston and teaching me about her culture
This gives me joy to watch 😊
I love this channel so much!
This is my first time watching "No Passport Required," being from Houston as well as being obsessed with Nigerian food, I really truly enjoyed watching this video. Houston has the largest Nigerian community in the United States.
I love the energy of the Jolly Jolly owner. He loves his art
West African flavours are definitely on the come up. 💙
I see Texas is headed down
They're the culture Houston is fucced
It is said that when one is hungry any kind of food is appetizing, no matter who cooks it but some folks are still skeptical. Markus has used his platform to gather and decode geographic original roots of some of what we enjoy eating from our home and restaurants across America. Lucky man, grateful viewings😋❤😋.
One word for this West African food documentary: DOPE👩🏿🍳👨🏿🍳🎥!!!
I disagree with Chief Marcus, peanut soup is not from Ghana bc a lot of communities in West and Central Africa have their own version of peanut soup; where I am from in Congo Kinshasa, we call that mwanguba and peanut soup goes with all kinda meats and vegetables.
stop saying fela created afrobeat,fela was one of those who promoted afrobeat,thank you
Nigeria 🇳🇬 the African pride.
There 54 countries in Africa, there is no need for them to come to the USA
Nigeria 🇳🇬 to the world, nice video
Love it. Thank you.
Haven for West African food or Nigerian food?!
Great foods. Great stories. Great presentation. And the love that is authentic African. Great job!
