@Hugh Mungus I will suggest jollof rice and plantain with beef n chicken, that will be a good start. You can also try some soups like egusi. I like the beans and peppered stew but if you don't like spice might not recommend but it's really good 😁
@@JP0411 I get your point but mine was his dream was to come to America to do it , hence the American Dream. Now had he wanted to do it in Australia, it would be his Australian dream,.
I binge watch this Street Food Icons series and this here is my last video on the playlist. They all have one thing in common: THEY START THE DAY AT 4:00 A.M. That's the key.
I have never tried Nigerian food. I don't even know them and I feel so proud of them for working hard and bringing diversity into our community. I must try this.....traveling soon into NYC.
They are self employed and I am really impressed with their hard work and tenacity of purpose. Now they need to move to the stage of creating a business and become business owners so they can have time to enjoy themselves a little.
Hard working Americans right here. This is the dream. Doing something you love and succeeding at it. Not everyone can experience that. God Bless them and may the family business go on through his kids.
The Nigerian accent is the most amazing voice I’ve ever heard, the women sound so elegant and beautiful, and the men all sound very confident and happy.
i know Im asking randomly but does any of you know of a trick to log back into an instagram account?? I somehow lost my login password. I appreciate any assistance you can give me!
This series is inspiring. As a first gen Hmong-American I love seeing others succeed and it makes me appreciate the opportunities that the U.S has offered my parents.
@TheGooners11 honestly ALL education is important we can never know too much I believe no one is ever to old to learn things. My children's studies are different when I was going to school so I'm learning differently with them. But I encourage them to try their best in everything because there's no telling what part of their lives they'll need one more than the other.
I love how they have more than love and romance. They are a team. They have the same vision. They have the same hustle and grind. They are business partners as well as lovers. I always tell my friends that I couldn’t just choose a man based off of love and romance. Ive learned from experience that I am very ambitious and I need someone who will accept and respect that. Even better for them to join me. Or we won’t work.

@jeff allen A real boss ensures everyone earns their pay cheques by working diligently. And a real mom teaches her kid(s) to earn a living so they can grow up into responsible adults rather than waiting for handouts. That's survival 101, something I reckon nobody taught you.
@Wyeil Arbukle My cardinal belief is to love people as I'd love myself regardless of people's sexual orientation even if I do not agree with whatever they do. I don't care one bit if you don't have respect for my beliefs, It doesn't bother me at all. HAVE YOURSELF A GOOD DAY!
As a Nigerian living in California, I miss the East Side Community of Nigerians, because Even If your mom's wasn't cooking it, It was still good. Respect to Munchies. No cap.
Wow, I’ve heard of this food truck awhile ago and always said I would stop by anytime I’m in NY! So happy to see this here. One thing I can say about us Nigerians, our hustle and perseverance is an actual level no matter any circumstance we’re in 😩! You just have to respect it ! Naija no dey carry last 🇳🇬✨

The food looks so good that my mouth was literally drooling. My mom is Jamaican, and I like the Jamaican food. I don't know which one I would prefer. But I would definitely choose the Nigerian food.
This truly is the American dream. And not just the trying to get rich "American dream" it's been bastardized into but to bring something you love and amazing to the community and to America and to make a good living in the process. The true American dream.
As a white guy from Canada, I've always seen, read,and thought of the classic "American Dream" as just immigrants being able to go to America, work hard and make a decent living for themselves and their families. Edit: Its always great when immigrants add and contribute to their communities. However to me that always just seemed secondary to the idea of the American dream it seems Americans used to promote
OMG......I want to try this so bad. My dad is Nigerian and this food coupled with a cold Guinness or Heineken is a heavenly experience. So hungry now. I have to eat there next time I'm in Manhattan.
My mouth is watering! This is what makes America so beautiful- a melting pot of different cultures, religions and races. I love to see people cook with love- it brings us all together. ❤️
I grew up with this food, Joloff, Moymoy, Eba, Pounded yam, pof pof ecc... My parents are Yoruba and I know for a fact that they would love something like this, shout out to this guys!!!
beautiful family and values - and its refreshing to see that they understand the American dream takes a loooot of hard work.. and it is not guaranteed at all. Really wish I lived in NYC to go visit them - I could probably order that joloff every single day. I make my own recipe but I am obsessed with improving it.

i worked on a job site with a Nigerian bloke called Godsave a few years ago. Man he was such a happy guy always laughing and being positive. These people come to the west and are grateful and see only the positive and opportunity everywhere.
I'm so excited that our authentic Naija cuisine has made it to the Munchies Channel!!! So proud of this hardworking family, I will definitely check them out when I visit New York. The peppered snails, moimoi and puff puff just made me wanna dive into the truck looool
“The American dream comes with a lot of hard work and sacrifices.” That is such a true statement. Your dreams must progress from the REM state to reality and thus fruition. The dishes look great.
I worked on wall street for 30 years and we used to feel sorry for street vendors cos they didnt get paid a million dollars a year but after watching the Munchies channel so much, I see these street-food guys are far happier than any millionaire bond trader I ever knew
