Nice Video Dr. Mark. You managed to put out a LOT of information on a short video. Just to add to the information on the video: The best pork related food is in the highlands like Quito and surroundings and Cuenca; for secos or encebollados Guayaquil is the place; for seafood related and green plantain paradise food, Manabi province is the best. You can usually have all the named foods anywhere in Ecuador but to get the real deal it's best to get the specialized local food 😉

I don't need to travel to Ecuador. I've got my mom and grandma to make food for me. So happy to be a Chilean Ecuadorian.
You forget el encebollado
The most delicious thing you can eat in ecuador is the bolon. Its a green banana or platain fried, smashed and added chesse and pork and made it into a big ball. You can eat it with coffee or orange juice. Its the best thing we can eat for breakfast.
Ecuadorian food are probably the most underrated food ever. Very yummy

This is a story about seco I know: At the beginning of the 20th century petroleum was discovered in Santa Elena, Ecuador. So an English company was hired to extract it, this was the Anglo Company. They established a camp that soon became know as Ancon town (Ancon= ANglo COMpany). People from Santa Elena was hired by the English for doing chores like cooking. A lunch in Ecuador usually includes two dishes: a soup and the main dish or “Segundo” (second dish). English didn’t like the soup because it was hot and Ancon is a hot place (it is located near to the beach with a temperature over 30 degrees Celsius) so they asked for the ”second”. The most common second prepared was the goat meat stewed (goat is an animal that is easily found in Santa Elena). As the English asked for the second, the natives started to call that dish the “second of chivo” and later because of the local pronunciation it became the “SECO” of chivo. I don’t know if this story was true but it sounds logical and credible, doesn’t it?

One look at this guy and I trust his opinion in what to eat.
Great video! I used it in my Social Studies class to explain about Ecuadorian culture. My 8th grade students loved it !!
I miss it soo much. MANABI IN THE COAST OF ECUADOR FOOD IS THE BEST IN THE WORLD
I couldn't believe how good the Chinese food was. The fruit is phenomenal!! Best watermelon and magos I've had in years. Obviously also the things you mentioned.
Im Ecuadorian and I love all the foods u mention 🤤👍👍👍👍
Ecuadorian here. You mentioned a lot of good dishes and snacks. Definitely my go to option. You missed a couple seasonal foods like “guaguas de pan”, which are a form of pastry decorated to look like a kid and it’s filled with chocolate, fruit marmalade, or dulce de leche. Also there’s “colada morada”, which is a drink made with red berries and such. It’s really good and served with guaguas de pan it’s even better. But my personal favorite dish would be Fanesca hands down. It’s a seasonal soup that contains many different grains in it. It’s coupled with eggs, little bread balls, chili, or fish if you want (I personally don’t). That one is my favorite because it’s a really heavy soup because of it’s consistency and the amount of stuff in it. Definitely my #1 recommendation.
Viva Ecuador!!!!!!!🇪🇨❤️🙏🏽
Ecuador y su variedad en gastronomía ,🤗 cada región se caracteriza en el arte culinario , costa,sierra y oriente😘😋 tenemos todo ,realmente nuestro país es un paraíso 🤗7:44

Hola!
If you're coming here, Ecuador, then I'll give you some advices about food you must have to taste. For instance: hornado, mote, tripa mishki, papas con cuero, librillo. Also the most cities have drinkable water so don't worry. But if you're grabbing a bit out, make sure you don't eat at "mercados"( kinna of outside grocery shopping?) Because the don't prepare food in a aseptic way. I'm from there and I've never got a food disease
La comida ecuatoriana es de las mejores del mundo, recién el encebollado quedo como l asegunda mejor sopa de pescado del mundo, es una delicia.
Me parece que el ecuatoriano ha estado tan acostumbrado a comer bien y rico que nunca se dio cuenta. La verdad se come delicioso.
Q lindo mi Ecuador es rica su gastronomía ❤❤❤
Great video.Thank you. Now I wish I could go there to see all the beauty and culture of this country and taste the food.
You could literally have breakfast in the beach, lunch in the highlands and dinner in the jungle in one day.
The passion is evident

You shoukd have travel to the ecuadorian coast, you just show us dishes from the serra, there´s a lot of tasty dishes in the ecuadorian coast like encebollado, caldo de salchicha, guatita, arroz marinero, cangrejos (crabs) bolon de verde, bollos, so if you come someday do not forget to visit our beaches and the other ecuadorian big city called Guayaquil, you are going to love the gastronomy.
La comida de la sierra ecuatoriana es deliciosa y la costeña es tan deliciosa
Sandwiches of pernil (pork) Huaynacapac Av. in Cuenca, you will be delighted my dear friend

Hey! An Ecuadorian here (from Quito) just to thank you because I happen to be visiting in Cornwall (UK) and was trying to show or explain about our food to my host family and this video is perfect. There are tons of things left out but still a great video. One of my favorite snacks is chochos con tostado and my next favorite is empanada de morocho. If you pass by Cuenca try cascaritas (another way of preparing pork skin) it's delicious!
Ecuador mi pías ❤️🇪🇨
Ecuadorian gastronomy is a hidden gem, I enjoyed your video!
El locro de lapa man he knows what he is saying forsure 🔥🔥🔥
