VALENCIA, SPAIN – Welcome to Valencia, in Southern Spain and home to Paella Valenciana, the original and authentic paella and probably one of the most famous of all Spanish food. Today we’re going on a paella tour in Valencia where we’ll first visit the market to see the local ingredients, and then eat two very different but authentic paella in Valencia. Let’s get started!

🌶️ NEW: I’m huge excited to tell you that Smoked Ghost Pepper is Available Now: https://amzn.to/3PNTvNQ (available in USA first, coming soon to Canada, Europe, and Worldwide)

Mercado Central – To begin this amazing Spanish food day in Valencia we first walked around Mercado Central, the central market and one of the most beautiful markets in Europe. The market has everything you could ever want. Along with trying a few snacks like a Valencian farton, we checked out all the 10 most common ingredients that are a part of a Valencian paella.

Barraca Toni Montoliu (https://goo.gl/maps/bLTv4QmpGmqddVDBA) – Next up we headed out to Barraca Toni Montoliu, a man who is preserving the tradition of family paella on his farm just outside of the city. He grows most of his own ingredients and prepared a huge pan of paella using fresh ingredients. Seeing the process was a huge learning experience for me and it was fantastic. The paella at Barraca Toni Montoliu is traditional and family style.

Casa Carmela (https://goo.gl/maps/RKPXnLcMcoaLHoUaA) – Next we drove over to Casa Carmela, a paella restaurant in Valencia since 1922, one of the oldest and most legendary. Their paella kitchen is absolutely insane, so many pans of paella cooking at once, all blazing over orange wood fire. They have taken Spanish food to the next level with their Valencian paella and are well known for their Socarrat – crispy caramelized rice at the bottom of the paella. It was for sure the best paella I’ve ever had in my life, hands down. We also tried their Fideuà – seafood noodles from Valencia.
Price – €60 per paella pan

It was an amazing day learning about traditional Paella Valenciana and the pride and care that goes into it. Again it’s easily the most recognized Spanish food and after learning about it today, I can fully agree.

  1. I still have a photo on my wall of a Paella I had in Spain in a restaurant on the beach. The Paella dish took an hour to cook in a 6ft pan, and if I recall OK 6 boxes of rice and 2 large bottles of oil. A brilliant experience to watch it being cooked and then eat it when ready. Your tour brings back very happy memories.

  2. 23:22 so casually drinking the beer ❤
    24:22 Mark is going bananas on the rabbit. Awesome😄

    27:02 eating mussels like that. That's a thing Spain, Belgium and The Netherlands have in common.
    28:15 climate change 😱

  3. such an amazing day Mark, showing this traditional paella Valenciana, the most recognized food of Spain, its like our local Valenciana here in Philipines, i like the mixture of duck, chicken and rabbit..

  4. I just dont understand how u can manage such a loud and joyful manner while talking to a camera and in a public spot without caring about what/how people look at u or think about u

  5. Hi Mark. I am so sad that your Smoked Ghost Chili Pepper is not available…? I live in Denmark 🇩🇰 and i would like to order some of this delicious pepper 🌶 but i can’t. Is it because you don’t send this product to Denmark? i hope you read this and maybe help me by sending some. I will of course pay for it..☺️

  6. I truly enjoyed seeing Mark so happy enjoying a meal like never before…You were so excited…Thank you for sharing with us your amazing journey throughout my country…Many Infinite Blessings to you and yours…

  7. I'm a Spaniards and I don't like paella and tortilla.
    And not crazy about jamón either. 🙄
    I can live without this three things.

  8. If I hear you say the word paella one more time I will hunt you dow I always thought when you say the word you say the ll’s that that are in the word I say it as pie Ella.

  9. Can't wait going to valencia on the 20th September. This is going to be my 1st stop and check on the foods you've seen and tried.
    I enjoyed barcelona so had to try another Spanish city. Great video you are such a genuine guy and so excitable about food which is great to see.

  10. Thanks for your your wonderful episode about Valencia Paella, which I tried once, and very much liked, during a vacation to the Canary Islands in 1973 much younger than you. During my many Europe 1970s travels (including France), I also had the pleasure to taste Bouillabaisse, Escargots and Moulle/blue mussels – perhaps gourmet topics for future episodes of travels for you. Growing up in Denmark (with simple and bland tasting farm food, without spices , but definitely organically grown vegetables and farm animal meat), I came to appreciate more delicious spicy food when vacationing in Europe. I ended up emigrating to western Canada (beef/cattle pasture lands) and acquiring a taste for 12 ounce lean steak quite often, with the occasional variation of Indian curries because my British father-in-law (born and raised in India during the colony era) loved that type of food for family dinners and during local restaurant outings. It's amazing how taste buds can change your life food preferences, eh?

  11. I both love your videos and channel but had to dislike this as you couldn't pronounce the name of the dish a ton of times. It is not pronounced as two words as you kept doing, it is one singular flowing word and it just tweaked me.

  12. Thank you very much as a self proclaimed Chef of my family , the Paella is one dish I am so afraid to try cooking! Only because I do not want to disappoint the Spaniards who introduce this dish in the Philippines! In the movies I always hear the Mestiza woman sayong, " you are not ready to marry my son until you know how to cook Paella!" Now I know its origin, I think this month is my Paella month!
