 I have been exposed to the beauty of different African countries, but to be honest, Harare is a discovery. Listen, I've been to 25 countries in Africa and I've never seen anything like this before. This building is naturally air-conditioned. In fact, are you feeling the coldness right now? Yeah, naturally. It's cooler at the bottom and then it gets warmer as you climb up the top and as far as I know it actually can capacitate about 450 cars in terms of parking and then also offices are over that. But what can be found in here? It looks like a shopping mall. It's a shopping mall. It also has offices around and food places as well and before I left for the UK there's actually a shop that sold Apple computers. That's what really caught my eye. It was right at the corner there, but I'm pretty sure now that it's changed. Maybe you can go and check it out. No, I need to go in because I feel like they want to come along with me. I have never seen anything like this before and thank you guys so much for telling me and I think I need to educate you all. Let's take a walk. We need a mall. Let's do it. It's also very interesting about this building is it's based on termites mount which means it cools itself. So it's quite interesting that using nature to inspire the building. So this is one of the buildings that I think is very very important especially here in Zimbabwe. When you talk about green and going green and not using a lot of energy so you can imagine how many air conditioning units would need to use to cool down this building but it's all being done naturally. I read on the internet that this country is a multi-currency nation which means you can use a dollar here. You can also use a Zimbabwe dollar. What else again do you guys trade with? As far as using pullers as far as using rands especially in Mateweleland. Mateweleland is the other province that is Bilawayo, Gwanda and all those other. So does it mean that when I'm walking in the street of Harare and I want to buy anything I need to use I can use dollars. Yeah you can use the American dollars you can use the Zimbabwe dollars as well if you have cash. Wow. In eco cash as well we do have the mobile money. The mobile money. Yeah. Okay can we buy something from her? Yeah absolutely we can. Hi. Hi hello. How are you? How much is this? Ha! There's nothing. It's empty. I want this, I want this. I thought this is what I'm buying but I show you. No, this is more like advertising. Advertising. This is what is available in this tiny track. Can you give me something like this? Not this one. It's empty. In my ring. How much is it? 350 is a point. 350 point. And how much is that in dollars? In dollars. It's 70 cents. 70 cents. Don't worry I'll give you one dollar. That's the only money that I have Zimbabwe made me broke though. See look at my whole me. How are you one dollar? Ha! One dollar. Have it then. Thank you. You're welcome. But can I also pay in Zimbabwe currency? Yeah 350 right? So but what if I had rants? Would she take it? No here normally rants here in Arana. You don't want rants? South Africa rants? No. How many do you need? I have 100 rants. You want what? I give you rants. For this? Yeah. You good? You see? What about Pula? Pulas? Are you feeling alone? Pula load! Is it affordable to live in Harare? It is actually because I think it depends with what you enjoy and what you love and if you love high-end things you can go there and find them. If you love like for example I can tell you Mbare. Mbare is the best place to find the most affordable things. Wow. You can even water, bells, you can you know people that do thrifting, vegetables in Bari, all the traditional vegetables from the farms they are there. But if you want to find them in another area where the markets are a bit of a high-end kind of like markets you can go there at a higher price as well. So you can live in Harare. I want to live at Mbari. Please. It's close by. Thank you. I want affordable things. You have to pay for Harare ticket? Yeah. Imagine. Just tell me if I've been parked here. Let's look for the guy. So every 10 minutes you have to pay or it just be an hour. At this one? And one ticket is for the whole city in a day. Exactly. It's supposed to be like that. I'm confused. Let's look for the guy. Does it mean every one hour I need to pay a dollar? Every hour you have to pay a dollar and if you don't pay you're in trouble. So now I've just paid for another hour. So you can't spend 24 hours in a city. Yeah that's a very good question. You guys spend 24 hours in a city. Eight dollars a day in town? Yes. Three thousand two hundred pounds. You have a lot of money. You have a lot of money. As a Zimbabwean diaspora returning back to Zimbabwean. If you have a message for the four million Zimbabwean living abroad what would that message be? The message would be there's a lot of negativity around. So I would say experience Zimbabwean yourself with an open mind. Because sometimes experiencing Zimbabwe with someone else's vision or someone else's thoughts doesn't work. And that was the case with me as well. I used to hear a lot of negative things about Zimbabwe. So I would say to anyone out there just come here experience it with an open mind. I would say that's the most important thing. That way you will start seeing the country from a true perspective of your lens. Welcome to Zimbabwe and enjoy. Thank you. Are you guys not hungry? I'm super hungry. No, I'm so hungry man. So you know who this guy? No, he's not tired. No, no, no, he's hunger. He would not even talk to you. Let him eat. He would tell you the best joke in the entire world man. So you know what? You're hungry. No, but for me, I'm hungry but since I came to this country, the kind of food that I see chicken in, chicken Republic, chicken this, chicken pizza in. I'm not that kind of guy. Okay, you know what? What don't we do traditional meal? Let's do a traditional meal. No, that would be fantastic. Yes, let's do a traditional meal. But if you're doing traditional meal, I want more local place. Not too fancy. Yes, I know a place that when I give them my money, I know that I'm supporting their businesses. I know a place. Let's do it. Leave that to me. I know a place where we can go to. Fantastic man. But I'm so hungry. But you know what? Whatever I'm going to order for you guys, you have to eat it. It's local. Okay? It's traditional and it's local. Do you know my slogan? What's your slogan? Food over women. You know what you guys think in the comment section there? I think food over women. Because even if you have a woman in front of you and you have to make sure she's okay, you have to eat before you, you know, a way to a man's heart is through his stomach. Is that true? It's 100% true for me. It's true. See my cheeks? And if you don't feed me, you're killing me. You have to promise me one thing. What is it? You have to eat everything. No, I will finish it. Even if I don't finish it, I'll put it in my pocket and I'll take it home. Okay, deal. But what is the main dish in this country now? Saza. Saza. Yes. It's maize meal. Okay. Yeah. I think you cook it like it's like it's made from maize powder. Maize powder. Yes. So they boil it and then it becomes a solid. So we eat that with meat, vegetables. So that's our main sort of starch base. Okay. Yes. So you guys don't have fufu here? I think that's similar to fufu. What is fufu? What's the ingredient? Fufu, we use cassava and then plantain. Right. And then we pound them together. Right. Yeah. Nigerians use pounded yam. That is their fufu. Yes. But if you say maize flour, for me I would say it's equivalent to banku in Ghana. Okay. Now, I'm not sure what that is, but I'm sure when you see it, you will know exactly what it is. Okay. So this is it. We're almost there. Bro, are we coming to eat those stones, man? No, no, no, no. Check this out. Wow, they are carving stones. This stone is amazing stuff. Look at that. Whoa. This is authentic art. Well, you guys have a lot of rocks in the country. Oh yeah. I mean Zimbabwe is the land of stones. Oh yeah. We have a lot of them. Granite. So let me show you more inside. Okay. The finished product. Wow. Is that where the food is? Please. I just want to know that. Yes. Is it the same place where the food is? Yeah, this is the same place where the food is. Thank you. That's what I want to know. Okay. I'm not even joking, man. I'm so hungry, but I'm seeing this beautiful carved art. Stone carvings. Stone carvings? Yes. When I'm hungry, I confuse words. Are we really going to see the carved stones, please? Oh, come on. I'll help you out. You know, this is the things that I do for you guys, man. You see, this is what I always tell you. Whenever you watch a video, don't forget to like, subscribe, share the videos to friends and family because I've been out the whole day filming and I've not even eaten it. I'm definitely sure I'm going to finish all the browns as of today, but you know what? You just come along. Let me show you a bit of the what? What is the word again? Stone carving. Stone carving. Oh my God. And it's so smooth. Do you even feel the rocky surface, man? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh my God. This is made by Africans. Made by Africans in Africa. Talented. You're so intelligent, man. I don't know what is happening to our continent. Why don't we use the brain that we have to develop this continent like if an African can do this, what else can we not do? Like when I went to Great Zimbabwe, it was built by Africans. The pyramid built by Africans. Oh my goodness. Africans, we need to buy made in Africa goods, yeah. It's a way of improving our economy. If the money stays in Africa, I mean, we use the money to develop Africa. Yes. Now let's go do the food. Please, let's go. Hi. I love this place though. What did you say? Good afternoon. Good afternoon. I'm hungry. How do I say I'm hungry in? Dinanzara. Dinanzara. And I want to eat. Before I finish that, I'll faint, man. Let me go for the food first. Please. Hi. That's good. Right. No saza. I don't want to eat munga. And cheese. Rice in a doli. Only rice? Ah, no. I want saza. What's a dry white? White saza. White saza? Yes. No brown saza? No. What do you have? You have mbouzi? This makes you the real African. Make sure you eat. Right. Let me help you out. Did you get some soap? Yeah, I got some soap. Okay. Make sure you eat with your hands. I've seen comments like why do Africans eat with their hands. You know, before the person who invented fucking knife, God invented this one. You are born with it. Naturally. It's cheap. We don't have to pay anything. Exactly. All you need to do is to make sure you wash it with soap and water. What is on the table right now? Okay, so what's on the table right now is this one here is saza. This is the white maize meal. Okay. Okay. And this is rice with peanut butter. What? Yes. It's very nice. No, this is not rice with peanut butter. Oh my goodness. I was village rice. Village rice? Yeah. From the village? Yes. Wow. Which means it's produced in Zimbabwe? Okay. I love things made in Africa, so I think I like it. Okay. So it's mixed with peanut butter? Peanut butter. Okay. But was this mixed with peanut butter? This one is mixed with peanut butter. But how can you mix rice with peanut butter? Look, he's eating it. Look, he's enjoying it. So I'm not tradition. Yes. I'm sorry. I'm so sorry. I've never seen because, you know, we have rice also made the same way. Then we have peanut butter soup. Soup? Ow, you are shocked. I know it. You are shocked. We need soup. Just like this. But peanut butter. Then we put pepper, onion, everything, within tomatoes and everything. Then you eat with your rice balls. So we call it rice balls. So you pour the peanut butter. So right now, he doesn't need any soup. Because he's eating rice and peanut butter soup, right? Ah, me. I need to take off my clothes. Yeah. But this one I know because you see, I'm a farmer, chicken farmer. Yeah. So this one here is that original chicken? You know? I'm so aggressive. Yeah. Did you pray? Oh, sorry. Yeah. Who is the Christian here? All of us. Go ahead. Evan, the father, thank you for the food that you've given us. May it nourish our bodies and may we have it all the time that we need it. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen. Thank you. Amen. Amen. Ha! Wow, this is different. What are you doing? No, I'm laughing. Jesus Christ of the desert. This is the hand that I use. You will be slapped in Ghana. Really? I'm telling you. Now I know. Why? So in our culture, it's a taboo to touch food with your left hand. Like, as you're doing this, I need to walk away. But I'm going to forgive you because you don't know. So for the first time, you need to try eating with your right hand. Let's go. Let's go. Let's go, let's go. Ha! I can't. You can't. You know, if you go to Ghana and you act like that. No, you can't. Now you told me. No, no, no, no. Don't say you can't. You can't. Your hand. The goat meat is tasty, you know? Yeah. Goat meat never disappoints. This is why I always tell you to choose food over women. Women disappoint. Have you ever had broken heart before? Yeah. That's why I'm saying food over women. I had broken heart in 2017. So how about we make a deal? I'll come to Ghana. And I'll taste your food. Trust me. If you eat food in Ghana, you will not want to eat any food in this world again. Are you sure? Really? I'm telling you. Is the Ghana chocolate? You got so many staple food. If you try, like if this is Ghana, I would have had 10 different staple food on the table. 10 different? Wow. And you can find that at one restaurant, wherever you go. Everywhere, everywhere. And you know, like we sell everywhere. So even if you don't want to go to a restaurant, you might get food at a roadside. The same food that you're looking for in a restaurant. So those at a roadside even cooks it better. So tell me something. Taste wise, what do you think about the food so far? No. To be honest, I don't even know why you guys allow me to talk because I don't want to talk. You want to eat and enjoy the food? I just want to enjoy my food because the food is so good. Literally, I was not expecting anything like this. No. Because sometimes when you travel, different means from different countries taste quite different. That's something you don't even want to swallow. But this one? But you know what I can't eat? What? I'll tell you in advance before I come to Ghana. Snails and okra. Do you eat snails? He eats snails and we eat okra. You see those ones, they have to be excluded. I've had that meal before. That's the best meal though. No, no, no. Actually, it's nice. You see with this, if I had okra, I wouldn't be chewing this. I need to swallow it. No, no, no. How do you colonize the British? The British. For how long? Up to 1980. Ah, that's why. That's why. In Ghana, we had our independence in 1957. So we started cooking our own food. That's why you guys don't have varieties of food. You know you're going to be in more places than me. And I'm too open to try everything. After this food, please take me to another place to fill my stomach. Because now I don't want to fill my stomach. I don't want to fill it. Okay, I'm thinking about where else we could go. I wanted to find out something. Is the Ghana Jalof rice better than the Nigerian Jalof rice? Let them judge in the comments section. Is the Ghana Jalof rice better than the Nigerian Jalof? I have no idea about that. I'm a neutral guy. Only for today. But you see, all the Ghanians are going to say Ghana. Exactly. So now, who has the biggest population? Most of Nigerians also say Ghana. Really? You know, if I've been to Kenya, it feels like I've eaten Ugarli and Skumawiki. So Kenyans in the house, let me know. Is this not Skumawiki? I think it's Skumawiki. But do you guys call this green stuff? This is tsunga, apparently, when I asked. Tsunga is a delicate vegetable. Yeah, yeah, you have had it. You said if you don't finish eating the food, you can't go. Yes, you can't go. But this is almost done. I'm so happy. You're so happy, huh? Because I don't mind. Let's do it. I put this in my pocket. No, no, no, no. Finish it, finish it, finish it. Yeah, but you know, we made a promise to the camera, you know. Yeah, but I told you that for here, I'm just eating half filled. And then I'll add the rest, you know. In a different place. Extra meat as snacks, just to fill the stomach. So it's Zimbabwe. I just want to say you got the best food in Africa. I mean, this is my first time tasting an authentic Zimbabwe meal. And I would love to do this over and over again. But I'm not done. This is first phase. I'll get to you guys when I get to the second phase. Don't be jealous. I'm sorry. You are even lucky I'm eating in front of you. But anyway, I love you guys, man. Just open your mouth. I love you guys. Before I give you, have you liked the video? Have you shared? They have to like it. Have you subscribed? Take it. Open your mouth.
