Islamic City of Marawi, Philippines – Today we’re visiting Marawi, a city that’s famous for the wrong reasons, but should be famous for the friendly people and for having some of the tastiest food in the Philippines!
Huge thank you to Chui (https://www.youtube.com/@TheChuiShow), go follow him for amazing food videos! Also, thank you to Jason, our Marawi City guide.
Marawi is located on the island of Mindanao on the shores of Lake Lanao, and is home to the Maranao people, a Filipino ethnic group who are a majority Muslim. Most people in the Philippines have heard of Marawi City from the siege of Marawi, a months long battle that took place in 2017. But the city has been rebuilding and people are welcoming, and I guarantee you will enjoy the amazing food.
Here’s everything we ate on this Marawi halal food tour:
Badak Republik – This restaurant is known for serving badak, a Maranao jackfruit stew full of spices and palapa – it blew me away with flavor. You also need to know about palapa – Maranao spice blend with native scallions (sakurab), that’s used in every single dish.
Marawi Restaurant – Next on this Filipino street food tour we continued to Marawi Restaurant serving authentic Maranao Filipino food. One of the standout dishes was piaparan chicken – chicken with shredded coconut, and I loved the use of palapa, coconut, and turmeric in almost all recipes.
Dodol – When you’re in Marawi you must try dodol, a sweet rice toffee.
The Farm Grill Marawi (https://maps.app.goo.gl/jGZ2T36dFiBvWePo9) – The highlight of our time in Marawi, Philippines was going to The Farm Grill for a grilled king tilapia, cooked in a rich coconut milk and palapa (Inaloban a Isda). It was lifechanging!

I admire your ability to stay neutral with religion. Especially during these times.
I personally wish each and every one would all go away. Nothing but trouble
Drooling on that palapa
Not making up to a million before retirement is unfulfilled retirement.!! I'm 54 and my wife is 50 we are both retired with over $27 million in net worth and no debts. Currently living smart and fruitful with our money. No longer putting blames on FED for our misfortunes. Saving and investing lifestyle made it possible for us this early, even until now we earn weekly from the investment.
Thank you to Mark again. Bringing us to every place in the world . And to really see how people live and moved on from their unfortunate history ❤
Thank you, Mark, for featuring Mindanao and the people, culture, food and history of Marawi City. Food looks delicious, some reminding me of a nasi kandar or Indonesian warung. In fact, the dodol looks like Indonesian dodol, same ingredients.
❤
The whole video is so good!! But after seeing sui.. I should say i watched the whole video to see his reaction ❤
😂
I missed maranao dishes ,especially palapa
Why we visit on TERRORISTS place?
Damn. Tilapia is my favorite fish. Loved how the chef cooked it. I'm salivating right now at 10 pm. Gonna fry some tilapia for my midnight snack.
Maranao food is the best ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
9:00 I hope you change your plastic cover into a banana leaf to reduce plastic.
Nag lalaway tuloy ako…namis ko yung pagkain na ganito..yung kanin na ganyan niluluto nang lola ko..
Those are Halal Foods of the Muslim brothers and sisters.. in fairness, so yummy, I tasted those food in carinderias here in Baguio City
!! I am at the beginning of my "investment journey" , planning to put 385k into dividend stocks so that I will be making up to 30% annually in dividend returns. any good recommendation on great performing stocks or Crypto will be appreciated.
When you come back to Philippines try to visit Kuya Oliver's gotong batangas..its very popular here …located at Mabalanoy San Juan Batangas…Im sure you will enjoy that food…
Wow. I'd never imagine Mark Weins coming to Cagayan de Oro City and now in Marawi City, a place not every foreigner would visit. Alhamdulillah. Hope he tries dodol and other sweet delicacies and also the Bakas and the fermented fish (pusan). 🤤
Now your leaving in marawi city secret ingredents palapa sakorab
Am really enjoying your videos I keep inviting you to visit malawi I would love to meet you in person very great work you are putting on your videos well done mark wien
Thank you Mark for visiting my hometown and I hope you enjoyed the original Maranao Food .. God bless
deserve your 11million subs Mark!!!thank you for featuring Marawi City!!!to help boost their tourism economy that was left devastated by the war!!!!thank you un behalf of my fellow muslim brother there!!!!❤❤❤❤
Dodol is a food that was brought to the Philippines by Indonesians and Malaysians… So essentially, it is not a food that is originated by the Maranao people. In fact.. not only Dodol.. a lot of Marawi food was influenced greatly by Indonesian and Malaysian cuisine, even the language
The food was plentiful, making me feel full and delicious.
Best food in the Philippines for sure!
Mark Wiens ..I use to follow you with the Bell icon on and love all your videos since 2015 you had less than 500K subscribers, and you never reply to even one of my comments for the past 9 years now
From now on… I'm Disliking all the videos you post.. you're not that good person as you portrait yourself..
That's crazy you're walking around Mindanao lol. I was a Mormon missionary serving in the Philippines, and American weren't allowed to serve there because of the rebel militia there hated Americans and would target them to kill and rob. Looks pretty safe though
Help me
Glad you visit this place! Those food is definitely a tryout!

Go to any place in the world and american food, italian food chinese food ,indian food restarants are everywhere. Filipino is not.
Nobody other than filipinos say " lets go out for filipino food..
Why is it like that?
Is it considered disgusting or gross by the average global palate?
Just want to say I’ve been watching you forever ! One day I wish to go on food adventure with you bro .
