    Firstly, the title of the video was "Guyanese Food in Queens" If you want a video on Afro-Guyanese restaurants, then He would have to go to Brooklyn for that. Secondly, nowhere in dis video did anyone say, "well only Indo-Guyanese eat these foods." These foods are eaten by ALL Guyanese people! So stop wid the race-baiting! Third, I notice how your complaint only mentioned "Afro-Guyanese" Why not also mention Chinese-Guyanese, Amerindians, Portuguese-Guyanese???

    ⁠ You're solely missing the point. This video focuses on a specific area of the US that has the largest Guyanese population and their food which is Queens which also has more Indians. People need to think before they make silly comments which can easily be taken out of context. Do you think if they want to do a video of traditional Chinese food in NYC they will go to Brownsville Brooklyn and not Chinatown in Manhattan or Flushing Queens 🤷🏽‍♂️

    As a Guyanese-American, I'm glad to see our food and culture get more recognition. The erasure of other Guyanese ethnicities is disappointing. While other ethnicities are mentioned, Marcus seems primarily interested in telling the story of/only interviews Indo-Guyanese people (other than Sybil's owner who appears to be mixed). I don't think you can appreciate the richness of Guyanese food culture without telling the stories of the different peoples who contribute to it.

It's not a fusion of "Soul" music and "Calypso" music but SoCa is literally the 'backronym' of the words "SOul" and "CAlypso" to make the word SOCA.

That’s when Sybil was doing the cooking. She definitely deserves some type of permanent acknowledgment in that little section of land at ( Nostrand & Empire)!

    As a Trini neighbor, I concur with a lot of the comments here about not including the Afro-Guyanese history, dishes and contributions to the history and cultural makeup of Guyana. When the host of (David's been here) video logs came to Trinidad and Tobago, he also highlighted the Indo-Trini restaurants, dishes and cultural history. Barely grazing on the other just as popular Afro Trini, Spanish, and Syrian dishes that also make up a large demographic of the country. Not until the other KZread Influencer Food Guru ( Mark Wiens) who visited Trinidad and Tobago and traveled all over the islands tasting, cooking and getting the real history of how these dishes came into existence and how they've influenced the food culture today as we know it. Marcus needs to go back after reading people's suggestions and do another video with the other restaurants that serve the Afro, Chinese and other races that are makeup of the real Guyanese Cuisine.

    At 4:21 when Raymond was describing the different ethnicities and cultures in Guyana, if chef Marcus had not said "African" I'm pretty sure Chef Raymond would've skipped them. This video shows how Guyanese people can be so racist against their darker skinned country men because either Raymond doesn’t know any Afro-guyanese (excluding the guy at Sybil's who's mixed race) or he conveniently forgot to include them in his little tour for chef Marcus.

    As someone who was born in Guyana and moved to Canada at a young age leaving behind my friends and family it was extremely hard. Its something that challenges my life even today. But going back and visiting Guyana and experiencing the culture, food, and family has kept me wanting to continuously go back. Guyana is a totally different country than what it was when most of us left it. There are so many modern developments but the culture amidst all that change has not been lost. Seeing this has brought me so much joy and even a few tears just thinking of the struggles many Guyanese have gone through and even touching upon the disconnect when migrating away. The people of Guyana are most accepting, more open to each other, and more understanding of their values not more than ever. I truly urge any Guyanese who have not visited Guyana to take a trip and experience the growth and change happening in our homeland.

    My pastor was Guyanese. He had integrity. My sister was church secretary and my school was on a college campus that went under. I told her and the church bought the campus and my HS was able to return. Faith of a mustard seed.

    I'm 7th generation Singaporean with Indian ancestors. I think it's beautiful to see familiar faces in the Guyanese community but from a perspective from the other side of the planet. The greater Indian community and culture stretches across the world and its beautiful to see. I cannot wait to visit Queens and check all these places out. Wonderful programming!

People need to proud of their heritage, but im also thinking that the reasoning could be they are roped in with the descendants of African Slaves in the US. Which is what people think of first because of how large their population is in the states.

He was nice enough to come to the tables and greet people. Gonna love his concept just like I love all ethnic food.

    I'm mostly familiar w' Trini 🇹🇹 + Jamaican food esp trini food bcuz of my heritage, I have yet 2 try Guyanese. Pretty sure they have nice curries like we do in Trinidad. I'm 2nd generation Canadian + theres big Guyanase/Trini/Jamaican communities in Canada hence our big Caribana carnival festival etc. In Trinidad we have cross-cultural food as well bcuz there's a mix of ppl too. We have stuff like pow (chinese pork buns from the Hakka Chinese), bacalao (saltfish buljol) smoke herring, dhalpuri roti, doubles, curry crab + dumpling, aloo + chana, cassava pone yuca from the indigenous and creole foods that can me a mix of african + european. After watching this I realize that Guyana has very similar cuisine 2 T&T. And yes we do kinda laugh a bit at ppl who eat doubles + roti w' a knife and fork but it's all good tho lolll 😊. I've been 2 Marcus's restaurant the Red Rooster + Ginny's supper club in Harlem when I visited NY, it was fabulous + the night we were there they had a jazz band from new orleans playing, great times.
