CHARLESTON, SOUTH CAROLINA - Welcome to Charleston, one of the food capitals of the United States, and home to some of America’s best oysters. Today we’re going on a seafood tour of Charleston, especially focusing on the incredible oysters.
Barrier Island Oyster Co. (www.barrierislandoysters.com/)
We’re starting this seafood tour at the Barrier Island Oyster Co., who are responsible for growing and serving some of the best oysters in South Carolina - in the United States. One of their signature oysters are the sea clouds, which have an extraordinary balance of flavor. It was amazing to see the process and behind the scenes of how oysters are grown before they reach your table.

Next up we headed to The Ordinary, a well known seafood restaurant, serving a mix of seafood and especially fresh oysters and an outstanding raw bar. Food was delicious.
Total price - $163 for everything
Chubby Fish (goo.gl/maps/BdEn8A8YHf8fEQme9)
One of the restaurants I was most looking forward to trying in Charleston was Chubby Fish with Chef James London. He’s a legendary chef in South Carolina using the freshest seafood ingredients in creative and vibrant combinations. We had the oysters, and some more sea clouds, and an array of outstanding other local seafood dishes. Chubby Fish was without a doubt one of the best meals I ate in Charleston.

Going from place to place, seeing cultures, tasting food, travelling around, meeting people. Honestly marks kid has the best childhood ever, haha.
Wow, very impressed with Josh from Barrier Island Oyster Co, the amount of knowledge and respect for his craft was admirable, well done. Everything looks so delicious and well sourced, outstanding!
his knowledge and preserving of the habitat was mindblowing,awesome,and heart warming all in one. such a great group of people.
Saturday s with Mark are always the best days ever. I lived in Charleston SC for a few years back in 1984. It was a fantastic place to live. The basket markets where still there….what a great place to live.
Mark is the best food blogger, eats some of the finest food in the world but isn’t pretentious and you can tell it’s an authentic reaction.
Oh wow!
I concur he very legitimately loves what he does and it shows
Bro some people who watch mike chen hate Mark for being fake and I'm like wtf
@@Zephyr425lo dudo
? It's the same exact reaction Every Single Time! Eyes bucked out, mouth nawing, mmmmmmm sound, explanation of the flavor. Since how long? Still good content by my dude but yo... come tf on now
I grew up in North Charleston! Awesome place to live and eat!!
There's something so satisfying with watching Mark eat, especially oysters. His positivity is just so inspiring and soothing to watch
MMMMMM OH WOW ITS SO JUICY
whoa oh wow.
Mark, 29:25 was my EXACT same reaction when I first had that plate, plus a tear came out from how delicious it was. I'm soo glad you went to Chubby Fish! Along with the feel of the neighborhood, this was an unforgettable dining experience!
I saw your comment and was waiting for it. He reacts so well with each bite…. But with that one, it truly blew his mind. It looks and sounds mind blowing! So lucky you’ve gotten to try it!
Mark, I think you misidentified The Ordinary as Chubby Fish at 11:31 minutes 😬 … Regardless, love seeing you featuring Charleston. 👍🏻 It’s great place to live and more people need to know about it!
You're right. That definitely wasn't Chubby Fish.
You can tell he really really enjoyed that food man idk if I’ve ever seen him that happy before!!😂😂😂
Love where your videos are going Mark. Have always entertained and given me a window to global cuisine at a humble level. Doing a lot of these behind the scenes, is deserving to your hard work and consistency. 🙏🏽 bless you and your family pop!
One of your best episodes ever, and I've been watching for six years!
Thank you so much, Mark, for teaching me about the amazingness of my own country. America is so large and it’s so hard to understand the differences in states and cultures within the United States. Think about how close France, Italy and Germany are to each other, and how different their cultures and food are. American states have a similar independence, and food culture. It’s amazing.
I’m from Colorado, I might have to plan a trip to go over there for some seafood!
@@forteandblues rocky mountain oysters :P
Do not forget how many wars France, Germany and Italy had. Us only one civil war.
@@dpt6849 you’re comparing countries to states of course there is a difference.
Who remembers Mr.Bean😅😅😅
me
i love than scene
Mark looks so happy and in his element sitting at a table with a giant pile of beautiful oysters 🙂 That's some fresh eating right there!
The family all watch him, we love his trade mark "lean over" when he tastes lol
@@adamcarter699 haha - that lean is definitely a trademark by now 🤣
Welcome to Charleston! As a local, it’s great to see our local delicacies featured!
The chef at Chubby Fish was amazing! I want to go to Charleston now just to have his cooking 😍🤩😍🤩😍
Your reactions are priceless 😅 it's like you're having food for the first time in weeks and it's the same for everything you try. Your passion for finding hidden delicacies all over the world is truly amazing 🦐
His reactions are the same ...montage always the same..
@@gladlawson61 He makes everything look even more amazing.
" oOOhH WOOW" every dish (and then his eyes need collaberation) O_o
@@mentalasylumescapee6389 Yeah that's what intrigues the viewers more 😅 it might be all a marketing technique, but still it seems so realistic.
Apparently there a course where they teach you to roll your head back and close your eyes and say Wow on the way back a few times and you also get a certificate and a Lemon at the end from what I've heard, which you can squeeze on any dish! On the certificate it says "Oh Wow, oh wow ,oh wow and ho ho ho " you can then also apply for Santa Claus jobs.
It's awesome that the Chef at Chubby Fish, was so prepared for how much you like spicy food. He seemed to truly enjoy cooking for your family:)
Dad was an oyster farmer in Australia, I resented it as a kid, back in the 70's, it was a hard life. Technology has made it a lot easier these days and you can make a good living out of it. Looking back, we had a good solid upbringing and being out on the water all the time kept us in touch with nature and gave us a good work ethic
seafood videos are my absolute favourite!! Thanks for sharing these amazing places with us mark!!
Me checking on how far it is to Charleston just to eat at Chubby Fish! That is one of the most interesting menus I've ever seen!! I would have never thought of incorporating shrimp into a bone marrow dish, but I'm so here for it!!! You can tell the chef is so proud of his food and I have to try it!!! Great video as always Mark!
Quite frankly Marc Wiens watching your episodes brings me not only very useful & delicious information but hours of joy . Thank you !
HI Mark and your dear family. My family recently began watching your travels. We are going on a 10 day Boston/Maine trip this month inspired by you! We have reservations at the Union Oyster House and will later make way to the Cabbage Island Clam Bake before heading to Bar Harbor. We're big seafood lovers of all kinds! My wife is Thai and I'm from Miami. We're in Houston now. We never thought we'd be going to Charleston, but that changed after seeing this experience of yours! Thanks much... The Murphy's
The location title of the first place at 11:28 should be 'The Ordinary,' but it says 'Chubby Fish.' Friendly reminder. 😁 I am immensely enjoying your great content and admire your professionalism. 🙇🏻
good eyes~!👍
I like how you always take your family with you on your trips, must be an amazing life
Marks smile and squint you know it's good I love him and his family so nice respectful just a joy to watch him eat
Native South Carolina here!!! Once you've tasted our unique seafood and BBQ, you'll be back ......I PROMISE!!!! Nothing else compares to those oysters though. I'm sure that hot sauce is Texas Pete.
What a wonderful human being! Always brings authentic joy to everything. We love you Mark! And those oysters look incredible! I’m gonna have to make the drive from Mississippi soon!
Thank you for always making my day memorable with your travels!
Love it man. Always keep ‘em coming
Marvellous! Mark goes to the side of the road and holds a sign that says: ""Will travel for Food"", lol 😆😁
Got very sick. Just got robbed outside of restaurant😢😮
Oh wow those are AMAZING Seafoods! 🤤🦀🦞🦐🦑🦪🐟🐳🐙
Just love how appreciative you are!!!
That’s my next trip! Seafood looks amazing and fresh. Can’t wait!! Mark is the man! Always great recommendations
Wow Mark, thank you, and WOW Charleston, beautiful food. I love how the whole Oyster farming was explained and how they celebrate and respect the whole eco system of Oyster farming. Just amazing! 👏
I'm not a big fan of seafood but Mark makes every dish look amazing!
Agree
it will melt in your mouth
he doesn't make the dish though, he just goes " oOOhH WOOW" every dish, even if is a piece of hot dog poop he will say the same thing @_o @_o ooooooh wwOOOOoooWWWWWWWWW O_o
seafood looks and taste delicious at first but the flavor and smell of the seafood is so strong makes me remember why I too am not a fan of seafood
im not a big fan of clowns but you sound like one
Mark! Thank you for taking me on holiday without leaving my boring town. God bless your family.
Definitely looking forward to visiting Charleston, South Carolina and enjoying some Sea Clouds….looks yummy!

Mark -You are amazing!! Excellent video
I am here in N. Carolina in the last week of September and the prime oyster season is just around the corner, so thanks for the video.
The fact that we get free food review videos on KZhead by Mark is truly a gift. 👏👏👏
When has anyone ever paid for a food review? All food reviews are free.
He's getting thousands of dollars every video from ads if his content wasn't free he wouldn't even made it past 10,000 subs.
Bot
Your videos are the best 👏👏👏
Mark you are making me need a trip from my home state of Utah USA. We dont get fresh seafood here and all of your seafood tours make me really crave some fresh seafood
Mark, that looks like a splendid experience!!! I just love seeing your travels with your family, how you treat people and your sense of adventure! And... OYSTERS! What´s not to love about this video (and all of yours🥰) . You are a true cultural ambassador. Thank you for sharing your life with all of us.
