She speaks Farsi so beautifully. I love learning about other languages and cultures 💜

[sarahk]

This is so fascinating. As a fellow Iranian that was born here, I never really see our language being represented in YouTube videos in general so it’s just really nice to see it being shown on a big channel like Tasty. Thank you guys so much!

[g.t]

Their chemistry is truly infectious and beautiful to witness. I truly love Alix and seeing her this happy makes me happy!

[rosalia]

Zoya:roasts Alix
Also zoya:oh that means i have so much faith in you you’re gonna do great 😌

[qaisahmadi]

We NEED a part two 😂 this was so fun to watch as a fellow persian

[zahra]

i love how Zoya plays with words to mess with Alix

[ariellev]

As a language nerd, watching someone learn a language for someone they love is soooo cute! I love these kinds of videos so much 🥹

[soumitakundu]

You two are so so adorable!!!❤ especially the parts where Alix thought Zoya is praising her but actually she isn't 🤭🤭🤭 loved watching the video 🤩

[ShanSHaseq]

That’s so cool. As an Afghan American who speaks Dari/Farsi, it’s so cool to see how Iranians say different words for items and how the accent is. I personally love the Iranian accent and the people in general. Love the representation. 😊

[butchooo]

I'm Persian, there's one thing that you should do is to soak barberries for 10 minutes before you cook them, to get soft and fluffy. This was amazing. I hope we see «gormeh sabzi» next, that's a delicious food too.

[goldstar]

I would just like to add, I felt the love in the air before I even knew y’all were a couple I had to stalk Alix’s ig to confirm 😂 you girls are the cutest!!

[SourGir]

Me: "Holy CRAP, do these ladies know how much chemistry they have??"
*scrolls through comments*
"Oh, they're dating! Well good, cause if they weren't, they should be."

[shirleymok]

They are the cutest together! I think they really found their soulmates... plus this dish looks amazing!!

[mehryadbayat]

Ok it may be that I’m biased since I’m Persian but I LOVED Zoya like can we please see her in tasty videos more often?

[trulymadlydeeply]

Alix saying bah bah bah for every little thing is a mood ❤️❤️❤️

[mjmdn]

Not only was this literally a JOY to watch but it also almost made me cry! I never see anyone talk about Persian food/things and its just so lovely to see the representation!

[melik]

As an Iranian American teen, I've never really seen our food talk about and appreciated by people of other cultures. This made me so happy.

[murk]

Okay I'm pretty sure this is THE BEST tasty video I'll ever watch!!
Idk where Alex gets her energy from but this whole thing was cute!

She did extremely well all things considering and didn't get frustrated or stuck at all. Like wow this was a breath of fresh air Alex picked up on soooo many words. She seems like a very smart, perceptive, adaptable person!

[DroseraHearts]

Eee! I’m an Iranian who speaks Farsi, and this meant a lot to me! Thank you Tasty producers!

[itsareennn]

I am an armenian but my dad is persian and its so exciting to see how similar our cultures are. cheers! ❤️
