Nairobi's Ultimate Street Food Tour: Chicken and Meat Market, Exotic Food in Kenya!

Just like this guys, just like this. Welcome to Nairobi, Kenya. This is Kenya's capital city. A bustling mix of urban modernity and charming traditionalism in the heart of East Africa. On the modern side, this vibrant metropolis is known for being a major hub for business and commerce. A thriving center for technology and an emerging power for startups. But on the flip side, Nairobi also still embraces its traditional side with food vendors selling popular local dishes right on the street. That's what we're exploring today as we visit a local rooster market and later dive into juicy Kenyan meat dishes like Nyamachoma and Kichwa Ya Mbutsi. So get ready to come with me on a thrilling adventure through the capital of Kenya. It's going to be a non-stop ride so hang on tight and come with me to Nairobi, Kenya. Let's go. Mambo from beautiful, little cold Nairobi, Kenya. Today I'm here at Jogo Road or Rooster Road. As you can see over here is a rooster market. We're going to see people selling roosters. We're going to have some chicken, street food, breakfast, chapati, chai. More things to do? Yes, many things to do. Let's do it. Last day in Kenya, baby. Wow, what is he making? Cassava. Can I see? Look here, guys. Nice cassava. It's called fried yucca for me, you know, Venezuelan. I'm going to try one. With some spice? He's going to put more in. Okay, perfect. Wow. So there's like street foods everywhere, right? Ooh, hot. Look at that. So first the cassava is boiled. Fried. Hakuna Matata, bro. So it's peanut butter? No way. That looks good, bro. I'm going to buy one too. Alright, great. I'll take one. You should. You should, bro. But peanut butter is like, when you're fasting it's dangerous, huh? It's the best. I love peanut butter. Peanut butter with oatmeal, man. It's the best. So good. It's going to be so nice. Is this roasted? Oh, yeah. Delicious. Nice and nutty. Here we have fried cassava with some chili, some salt. I'm ready. I'm ready. That's good. Crispy. Salty. No spice. I brought you the mild one today, bro. I told you. You want to try the mild? Little mild. David's been here. Hot sauce. You ready to try it? Very good. Very good, yeah. I know, man. The sauce is epic. That's so crispy. How much for one of these? $2.50. $2.50? We take three? Like roughly $2, right? Plus we have two of those. So they also have here some sesame balls. I want to show you this. I had this in Trinidad for the first time. I couldn't believe it. It's so good. It's rock hard. So it's sesame seeds mixed with honey. And then the only way to open this is to do this. You should try it. Really tough. Really hard. But so delicious. It needs your teeth to be tough. So not for easy teeth. It's good. It's amazing. I love sesame. Sesame. Have you ever had tahini? That comes with sesame? The best. I'm going to just go the whole way. How good? Chai? Chai and nuts. Today no mandazi. Today we're not taking mandazi, but we'll take chai and ground nuts. Perfect. Let's do it. Amazing. So here we have some nuts. Some super popping hot chai. Chai Amazua. It's called Juvu. Red nuts. The great nuts. Super nutty. Full of flavor. The chai is so hot. But obviously they added a lot of sugar. And it's the same thing as India always. You guys got it from India, right? Chai originally came from India. Too much nuts. I'm not going to do anything. I'm good. Too hot. This is the way. Let's go like that. And then you go like that. And then like that again. Pro level. It dropped a lot. Way cooler. The thing is that this is already too hot. I think after this we're going to go see the roosters. One more. Very yummy. Good stuff. Now we're going to the roosters section. I think we need to buy one. We'll figure it out. They have a variety. Some are leaving. And look at this. They're making some chapatis. This is not chapati. This is mandazi. The next vendor here selling roosters. Super nice lady. She's like, come, let me show you. Look at the roosters, guys. Massive cage. She has two dozen roosters here. And they're all going for sale today. This is reality, right? We have a rooster here. We have to bargain the price. Because we have to hit this rooster today. Basically the price is like $4. For all this rooster. How many people do you think will hit this one? More than 8 people. It's heavy. You can see. Amazing. Alright, Tassos, let's go. That was intense. That was too stressful for me. It was too stressful for me too. So Sam, where are we going next? Charina. We're going to Charina where they sell most of the cow parts. They sell the cow feet. Hopefully also we'll find cow's head. Hopefully. So let's go and see what they have there. Charina place. It's a restaurant. It's also a club or a pub. And what's this? A camel? Again, I put a warning on this video. Be warned.

So we're going to have all the experience. All the way from making the ugali, the guys cleaning the intestines, all the way to putting into those folds the nyamachoma. So you can see some potatoes being peeled there. So we have a lot to do today. So it's lots of different stations. So right here we got ugali. Ugali right here. Then we have intestines.

And so right here, they're taking out the heads of a huge sack and they're putting it into a pot. This is this is goat head? Wow, let me see that. Oh, so the same thing we saw the other day. So what they do is they cut the head, then they like basically grill the head so they get rid of all the hair. They cut it all off and then from here it goes into this pot and here they'll make like a goat head stew, right? It's gonna be awesome. I actually love this dish. The stew and just I didn't want to grab this, but okay. Okay, I guess I'll continue. Look at this, guys. And then from here, next to us we also have a bunch of intestines there, right?
