1
go i don't i don't understand you bro oh hello oh my god today
2
we are going for a riding tour on the motorcycle
3
this is um elmo street by the way it's a thousand years old this is a pretty busy area of the city
4
but it means you can never really predict how the drivers are going to be here
5
because yeah you know they're driving
6
and then suddenly you know they're swerving
7
there's a shop where you can buy fez hats
8
i would say probably the 1800s to like the 1940s these
9
hats were extremely popular in egypt especially associated with the middle
10
and upper class egyptian men this is an amazing view i ordered spicy they had two different versions regular
11
or spicy crispy chicken good afternoon from Egypt today we are going for a riding tour on the motorcycle around
12
Islamic Cairo now there's a shop
13
that I actually want to show you guys where you can buy fez hats
14
and we'll talk a little bit more about that as we're riding
15
and then after
16
that we're going to go over to the other side of
17
this general neighborhood to the edges of the Hanah Haleli Market
18
where you have one of the thousand -year -old gates because there's a restaurant over there I want to try out.
19
Let's hit the road.
20
Yalabina.
21
Yes.
22
I'm in like very chill mode today, you guys.
23
This is a pretty busy area of the city.
24
so yeah fez hats i guess we could just start talking about that now huh
25
it's actually called a tarbush here in egypt so tarbush hats or fez hats obviously
26
um well maybe not obviously but they're from fez in morocco for those of you
27
that don't know that's where they originated somewhere in Morocco many centuries ago people have been wearing them
28
but then they kind of came into Egypt I need to get down one of these side streets maybe this one
29
yeah I guess we'll follow this thank you so
30
yeah Now, Fez hats originated in Morocco.
31
But they really, obviously, they spread around this region of the world.
32
And I don't know, all over the world.
33
But which direction to go is the question.
34
I don't know.
35
I guess I'm going to go this way.
36
So it's like a workman's area back here.
37
Look at all this carpentry and stuff.
38
We got a little Mickey Mouse.
39
but yeah um let me just speed up this whole story of the of the fez hats
40
so they got popular in the 1800s um oh is this a dead end
41
there's a horseback here but i don't know if it goes through does it
42
oh okay he's like no it goes through okay
43
it's it's certainly looking like it doesn't this this is does not go through bro i'm not going through here anyways
44
I think everyone's telling me it goes through, but I just don't like it.
45
I'm doing a terrible job of turning around as well.
46
Oh, shit.
47
My lash.
48
yeah it definitely goes through but i didn't that was too narrow for me for my liking awkward foreigner anyways
49
um yeah so you know not until the 18th century did it start really getting popular in this region of the world.
50
It actually, I think it's.. started getting popular over in Turkey first.
51
The, um, the Sultan over there was trying to kind of modernize
52
Turkey and he replaced, uh, the, he wanted to replace the turbans that people were wearing with the fez hats.
53
And that's what they did.
54
So Turkey, obviously also pretty well known for the hats.
55
And, um, I think I'm going to like the wrong direction.
56
I don't want to go this way either.
57
Huh.
58
Because I'm trying to show Bebzuela first.
59
Just so you guys can have a distance.
60
An idea.
61
This is going to be a random ass video, I think.
62
Just because of where my headspace is at.
63
Oh my god.
64
How is this ever going to make through?
65
Anyways.
66
Yeah, so the Sultan was doing that over in Turkey in the 1800s.
67
And here, Muhammad Ali Besha, who was kind of known as the father of modernization in Egypt.
68
He did a lot of things to modernize the country.
69
Controversial stuff, though like uh forced or conscripted um
70
I can't even think of the words I want to say I'm too focused on where I'm going here
71
anyways yeah so he was the father of modernization
72
and he wanted to kind of bring the tarbush hats
73
or the fez hats make them popular here and that's what he did
74
so from I would say probably the 1800s to like the 1940s, these hats were extremely popular in Egypt,
75
especially associated with the middle and upper class Egyptian men.
76
So they're kind of like the richer gentlemen would be seen wearing these hats.
77
Yeah, it was, it wasn't just a, it was almost like a status symbol, you know, social status symbol.
78
So I'm hoping I can like figure out where I'm going eventually.
79
Anyways, I like, this is the fun part of doing this anyways, right?
80
Is like these back streets, as long as I eventually get where I'm wanting to go.
81
By the way, smells like incense.
82
And we're probably close to Nifa and Nagahi right now at this point, I feel.
83
So, where am I going?
84
Dude, that is literally Niphan and Nagahis right over there.
85
So, yeah, I sensed it because of all the shoes.
86
Anyway, so, I mean, yeah, that's like a little bit of the history of the Tadabush hat in Egypt.
87
So, you know, the Effendi is the gentleman.
88
And you'll hear this actually called a lot.
89
Yefandim in Egypt.
90
People say like.
91
Well there's a lot of names people have.
92
For calling each other.
93
Here in Egypt.
94
It doesn't.
95
I feel like I hear it mostly with police.
96
To be honest.
97
It's definitely a respectful kind of a name.
98
It's not.
99
Someone who has a good job.
100
Or I don't know.
101
Something like that.
102
Maybe an elderly person as well.
103
Anyhow.
104
so yeah they really were very popular up until the 1952 revolution
105
when um the monarchy was overthrown oh yeah by the way um egypt's old king um
106
and monarch faruk i mean he was wearing them there's paintings of him wearing
107
that this hat
108
so yeah it was like a like i said it was very popular back in the day
109
and it was a social status symbol
110
but with the overthrowing of the monarch the revolution it was identified with you know colonial control british
111
and and elite class classes type of stuff and
112
so they uh the hat really stopping popular at
113
that time i haven't anyways i wanted to show you guys this stuff
114
and then we're gonna go drive by the shop I'm not actually filming in the shop for a reason
115
so I can't vlog inside the shop the guy said
116
he wanted 2 ,000 the owner wants 2 ,000 Egyptian pounds
117
to like vlog in there I did film a little bit with my phone
118
but then I was like yeah I don't really have a desire to do
119
that anyways but I know for people
120
that are looking for fez hats this is a place
121
that you can get it
122
and it's really close to the Hanukkah Lili market
123
I'm going to be pointing out a lot of different things as we take this short,
124
like, couple -minute drive down to a main street near the Hanukhalili market. So, yeah.
125
But, yeah, that's why I'm not actually filming inside the shop
126
and kind of doing more of a close -up of all the stuff that they do to make these hats.
127
It's a pretty cool craft, though.
128
It's pretty much unchanged, this craft, since the 19th century.
129
And this is Bebzuela, one of the old gates of Cairo
130
we're going to be going to the other side of the of this area to a different old gate
131
and have lunch outside that area so but yeah oh shit yeah
132
this is um elmo way street by the way it's a thousand years old the street.
133
So as you saw, Nifel Nagahi, I filmed there about some meat is very close to here.
134
But you have all sorts of shops and restaurants and little cafes and stuff.
135
Oh, bread boy.
136
Skills, skills, skills.
137
Hey, look, some tourists.
138
I very rarely see tourists back here.
139
Yeah.
140
Anyways, yeah, there's a lot of things in this area.
141
And I just wanted to show you guys kind of like this walk.
142
If you wanted to go to Beb Zawela from Khanah Khalili or vice versa.
143
This is the road that you take.
144
It's not that long.
145
It's fun.
146
Beautiful.
147
There's a lot of dresses.
148
All sorts of stuff back here.
149
I love the streets.
150
I love the history in this area.
151
Wow. And, yeah.
152
Allergies, huh?
153
and then up here we oh god that's manhole caused my tire to shift a little bit
154
but yeah up here we have the guri complex
155
which is a mosque and uh old care of ensere over on the other side i've made a video here.
156
There's a hat.
157
There's a, oh my God.
158
I drove by this shop without pointing it out.
159
I totally got distracted.
160
Let's turn around.
161
That's hilarious.
162
I forgot what I was doing.
163
But there's one of those tarbush hats.
164
Good thing I saw that man.
165
He's the one who reminded me.
166
I don't remember exactly where it is, but it's somewhere close.
167
I think it's like past these guys.
168
How far back is it?
169
Jeez.
170
I hope I didn't already pass it.
171
Do I not know where it is?
172
Maybe I already passed it.
173
In these narrow streets, when you're trying to stay out of people's way of traffic, it's easy to pass when you're on a motorcycle.
174
Oh, God.
175
Watch it, brother.
176
I think I definitely passed it.
177
it's very close to the main street.
178
So, I'm going to have to turn around again.
179
But yeah, you can get back, lost back here, go wandering around for hours.
180
Yeah, yeah.
181
I need to be able to drive slowly without everyone honking at me.
182
Go.
183
Okay.
184
round two where oh where is this place what's up
185
okay somewhere around here
186
i don't have my phone out because i know this area well enough i just don't have like oh
187
the tarbush hat is Specifically here.
188
God, did we pass it?
189
Maybe it's closed, dude.
190
Because I'm really not seeing it.
191
Maybe I'll have to...
192
Oh, that would be so stupid if it was closed.
193
These guys are trying to help me, but I don't need help.
194
I think it's we drove by it
195
and perhaps it is oh wait no I'm staring at it right now this is it
196
so this is where it could go I'm not moving bro that's what I mean always honking at you
197
fuck off fucking stupid tuk tuk malish get annoyed with tuk tuk's dude
198
anyway so yeah you have the complex right here that's how close it is
199
so you'll see once we come out to the main street um where this location is
200
so this is the store where they make
201
these hats and i will show you guys a little bit of the filming that i've done
202
of them making these hats but like i said they don't want vlogging
203
so um i'll leave the location of course to um a
204
location link on the maps under my video in their description
205
and in the comments like i always do so god i hate tuk -tuk so that guy annoyed me
206
all right now we can get out of this area and go get some food
207
I did record some clips of those guys.
208
Excuse me, sir.
209
Good.
210
Like, for real.
211
Like, right in the middle of the road.
212
I have no patience.
213
Alright, so now we are out on the main street and this is how close
214
Khan Khalili is.
215
So Farahat where I filmed getting pigeon is just right around here somewhere.
216
And over here is Khan Khalili Market and El Azhar Mosque
217
and the tunnel which I take to get under the street here since you have this giant gate.
218
so there's a kind of a layout of the city guys since i filmed uh
219
so many videos here but i don't think you ever kind of get
220
that distance so yeah there's that little shop where you can buy a a hat
221
and they're making them the same way they did you know 100 200 years ago pretty old school and then
222
oh there's a huge cut there
223
it took to I was he was trying to turn it real I realized but still I was like god man
224
Why is this white car so slow?
225
Alright.
226
Turning around here.
227
Right, right, right.
228
I hate...
229
I'm not great at turns, apparently.
230
even in a turn i am driving really really slow because i'm paranoid about wiping out
231
hate these big buses and they're gonna like go into why would you go into a market
232
if you're just sitting in a bus that's crazy to me.
233
Um, yeah.
234
It's like window shopping but in a very weird way.
235
Can I make it through here?
236
Yes.
237
Look at this little...
238
Oh, it's like a sheikhet.
239
Thank you.
240
Like, why would you swerve to the side like that?
241
Benefits nobody.
242
Anyways, so this is one of the entrances to the Hanah Khalili market.
243
I guess I gotta get around this taxi.
244
There's a lot of different entrances, of course.
245
This is kind of one of the main ones.
246
It's like, because it has this arch, which never used to exist, actually.
247
When I first moved here, this arch did not exist.
248
I could try driving through the Hanukkah Lely Market to get to the old gate, but you're not, it's very crowded in there.
249
You're not actually supposed to move, bro.
250
Thank you. Do that.
251
So security may or may not allow it.
252
But regardless, this is actually a better option.
253
Even though this is a very, very busy.
254
Well, you're not.
255
How are you, like, this is the thing.
256
Yeah.
257
He's, he's.
258
You're going to try to get through, but you're never going to make it.
259
So then they block half the road.
260
Why?
261
You know what I mean?
262
Because then you just have this vendor up here or a cart.
263
So how are you going to even, they just have to go right back over again.
264
I will never stop bitching about this stuff because it drives me crazy.
265
If there's a through, a way for you to get through, I get it.
266
But most of the time, not.
267
Oh my God.
268
They're just so stupid.
269
still the market that's where i buy my perfume my mirrors stick out a lot more a lot of these uh
270
jackass jackasses a lot of these boys don't have mirrors
271
i will say i mean they're obviously just better drivers than me anyways
272
because they've been doing it their whole life
273
but just adding on a lot of motorcycles don't have mirrors
274
and it makes them easier to navigate through tight spaces whereas i have to consider that
275
yeah just fit through any space that you can great now i have women
276
Well, this guy is definitely...
277
See, that's the other thing.
278
Egyptians will barrel their way through traffic.
279
I feel like too polite to be going where the pedestrians are.
280
But Egyptians will do that with their motorcycle.
281
I mean, everyone's on this street, to be honest.
282
There's no, like, even sidewalk here, really.
283
So, he's like, who's talking?
284
Why is there a sound of an English -speaking person around me?
285
Alright then, go, bro.
286
If you must.
287
You're just going to stand in the middle of the road, dude?
288
I just bitch about it.
289
See, like my mirror's down now.
290
Why?
291
Because I ran into that kid.
292
Monster.
293
I'm not even going to bother putting it up because it's just going to get knocked down again by someone.
294
Okay, I have a feeling we just need to be here.
295
So now this is Ataba, by the way.
296
Al -Moski and Ataba, like once you leave the Hanukhaleli market, it's a different part of the city.
297
Yeah, yeah, I guess that's it.
298
Almaski.
299
Ataba is now we're approaching it.
300
It's hard to say to be honest.
301
These markets just flow one into the other, you know.
302
And I've obviously made walking tours of this area.
303
All three markets.
304
Many times.
305
Anyways, we're going to take the right up here.
306
Like I said, it's mostly a driving video.
307
I don't know if I said it, but I meant it.
308
I should have said it if I didn't.
309
So it's going to be yeah, I just wanted to show you guys where to get the hats.
310
so that i can reference that in the future for anyone who might ask but mostly
311
it's just uh driving around this area and uh go guys
312
okay i try to like leave room for you and this is what i get dumb litter bugs
313
I don't know which side is better to go on but I'm going to go this way yeah go
314
I wish I could get ahead of this guy
315
never going to make it you know the thing is like they fight to do all of
316
that but like well how far are you gonna get you're not gonna even get far you know
317
because you just get stopped at another bus
318
but a motorcycle we can get through all of it so let me through let me through
319
i let these guys do the honking and like get out of my way
320
Fine, fucking boys. So impatient.
321
I mean, like, they will make more progress than me.
322
Alright, I'm going.
323
Fuck it.
324
I'm just trying to not be an idiot and crash.
325
Move.
326
Move.
327
Somewhere.
328
are you bitching at me? because I will fucking fuck you up bro go I don't understand you bro oh my god
329
I'm sorry oh my god no that's what I mean
330
I don't need this kid trying to draw attention to me either I just want to get past Nice roads.
331
This kid just starts thinking, I'm fine.
332
Like he's talking to anybody.
333
See, this is what I mean.
334
Let me through.
335
I could have gotten through.
336
Now you're blocking everybody.
337
Why?
338
Can I come by you?
339
Thank you.
340
This is me on the bike, guys.
341
Just pitching the whole time.
342
I could squeeze through more areas if I was less paranoid.
343
or just trying to be like a little more reckless.
344
Anyways, we're getting close to our destination.
345
I don't know where this blue bus is going.
346
Is he making a stop or something?
347
Or what? because you just never know what kind of pedestrians are ahead of you and like
348
I want to pass him but I don't want him to swerve out of the way and cut me off
349
a lot of times you'll see drivers um swerving in Egypt
350
and that's like to to avoid a pothole
351
or some messed up thing in the road but it means you can never really predict
352
how the drivers are going to be here because yeah they're driving
353
and then suddenly you know they're swerving unexpectedly totally sudden movement even when the streets are empty
354
it's kind of crazy to say but I actually feel like the roads can sometimes be
355
I'm not gonna say more dangerous but you feel like oh just because the roads are empty you can relax
356
No. On like a Friday morning, for example, or a Saturday morning when the roads are pretty empty and there's just a few cars out there.
357
But those few cars are driving like total jackasses.
358
Thank you.
359
Let's go.
360
All right.
361
put all my stuff away let's get a table somewhere
362
yeah so they have this upstairs area i think they even said they had entertainment to be honest okay this way
363
oh wow it's like a total side entrance That chicken looks good.
364
This one?
365
I'm confused.
366
Thank you.
367
I have my helmet, which is annoying to carry. So dark in here.
368
Look at this place.
369
No one comes here, even though they're open 24 hours.
370
No one comes here at the time that I come here.
371
Wow.
372
There are some people here. But very few.
373
Look at this.
374
As -salamu alaykum.
375
Good, how are you?
376
Shukran.
377
Wow.
378
We'll sit here.
379
Just out of the sun.
380
Thank you guys.
381
Thank you.
382
So this is an amazing view, especially if it were at night.
383
Or if it was a little bit colder than it is now.
384
The sun is still too hot to be sitting in it at this time of day.
385
But yeah, if it was winter, middle of winter, or at night.
386
Actually, at night in winter, it would be really cold.
387
anyways all right let's see what we got
388
a beautiful view so yeah i need to make sure not to film anyone else
389
because people don't like to be on camera good thing there's only two other customers here
390
all right i'm gonna look at the menu which he just dropped off with the water and i'll be back
391
So I have ordered the menu seems to be a mix of both like foreign food and Egyptian like traditional Egyptian food.
392
So because you have burgers on the menu.
393
I actually ordered mozzarella steaks.
394
I think this is the first time in a video where I'm ordering something that's not Egyptian.
395
Maybe I'm wrong but I think this other than that fast food video I made where I went to bazooka.
396
Anyways, yeah.
397
And then I was going to order a kofta sandwich, which was 90 pounds.
398
How much was the mozzarella sticks?
399
I already forgot.
400
Anyways, I'll be flashing the menu up here as I'm talking, perhaps.
401
Mozzarella sticks, 65 pounds.
402
Yeah.
403
So, I was going to get the kofta sandwich, but then I saw that chicken down here and I was like,
404
what's better, the chicken or the kofta?
405
And he's like, the chicken.
406
I was like, okay, never mind.
407
Don't get the kofta sandwich.
408
Give me some chicken then.
409
So, I've also ordered chicken, fried chicken.
410
Very non -Egyptian today.
411
But, yeah, you have a lot of different options on this menu.
412
and we'll see how it is it's not like crazy prices
413
which is good you know because it's close to the market
414
but it's not it's outside of the market obviously
415
if you're like at a total street food style place
416
and it's cheaper but this is like not bad prices at all for um a burger
417
or whatever and yep i'm not going to talk too much
418
because uh the video is probably extremely long with me driving around forever.
419
But, you know, what's funny
420
is one of the tours one of the tours is that I can't even think or speak today that one we organized.
421
So our tour guide is over there with one of our tourists right now from the Philippines.
422
Anyways, I'm not going to ask them if I can film them or bother them but that's pretty cool.
423
Which I suppose is a good segue into mentioning
424
if you are coming to Egypt and are looking for a tour guide or a driver, my husband and I organized those trips. So,
425
yeah, feel free to message us on WhatsApp if you're looking for a local guide or a driver or anything like that.
426
Anyways, all right, I will be back once the food is here just to let you know if it's good or not,
427
and then we'll end the vlog.
428
It's nice out here, though.
429
Foods here.
430
That was extremely fast.
431
So we have mozzarella sticks with ketchup packet.
432
Don't expect marinara sauce if you order mozzarella sticks in Egypt.
433
They never serve it with that.
434
Sometimes they'll serve it with some kind of different sauce, but it's never marinara sauce.
435
Shokran.
436
And yeah, a little disappointing when I first discovered that years ago but let's see how the mozzarella stick is.
437
Not great because it's not crispy.
438
But it's still fried cheese.
439
Oh, this is going to be hard to open.
440
This looks good.
441
Very good.
442
Very creamy and delicious.
443
And then we have, I don't know what you can see here, my fried chicken.
444
And apparently it comes with bread and fries as well.
445
Fries are eh.
446
The chicken better be good otherwise it's all eh.
447
Except for the drink.
448
I know I just ate breading, but that was good.
449
I ordered spicy.
450
They had two different versions, regular or spicy crispy chicken.
451
That's good.
452
I like it.
453
You can actually taste like that spice a little bit like, um, in the background.
454
It's good.
455
Delicious.
456
So chicken, yes.
457
Mozzarella sticks, uh -uh.
458
Fries, I didn't even know they came with it.
459
Oh.
460
Mmm.
461
Mmm.
462
But even for like a drink at night.
463
Because things are lit up here at night.
464
You know, look at all these lamps on the ceiling. So you know that.
465
And I saw photos as well.
466
But anyways, yeah, I always talk about how things are different at night.
467
It's because they are.
468
Egypt comes alive at night.
469
More people are out.
470
Things are more lively.
471
They might have entertainment.
472
But during the day is good for me.
473
For in filming.
474
Anyways, guys.
475
All right.
476
That's it.
477
I'm going to end the vlog so I can continue eating this.
478
And then drive like a zombie.
479
I feel like that whole riding experience was like me.
480
Totally zoned out.
481
But I hope you enjoyed.
482
If you did.
483
Give it a big like. And, yeah.
484
I will catch you on the next one.
485
Más alema.
486
You guys should always watch my full videos.
487
Because I always come in with some random stuff.
488
So, I was just talking to Shirin and the tour.
489
And she told me that this place is really well known for Hauashi.
490
I did not know that.
491
So, I stole a piece of their Hauashi.
492
And I'm going to try it.
493
Let's see how it is.
494
Mmm.
495
Okay. That is good hwashi.
496
Nice and spiced.
497
A lot of cheese in there.
498
And this is thick, actually.
499
You see this? So, I'm not sure.
500
Because, like, I filmed it, like, hwashi refai, which have, like, the baledi bread, but it's very thin and crispy.
501
This is, like, seriously, it's like a pie, almost.
502
Good.
503
I honestly do like the chicken more, though.
504
Maybe it's just my mood. But, yeah, that's good.
505
I didn't know they were famous for the hwoshi.
506
It's not as crispy as I would imagine it to be, though, the top, you know?
507
Anyway, still good.
508
The chicken's better, in my opinion.
509
Anyways, all right.
510
I'm gonna go talk to them again, but I hope you have a great day and I'll talk to you later.
511
I'll see you later.
512
Bye

Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?
Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
