- It's kind of weird to just show up
for five hours at the airport,
but let's see how much we can actually eat
in the short time we have.
Let's go!
- All right, guys, we made it to the airport
in Dubai, and we got five hours to burn,
so why not try McDonald's?
Out of all the things we could try here.
What crazy stuff do you think they have here
that you can't get anywhere else?
I wanna know!
- [Julia] We've got a chicken burger,
chicken McNuggets, cheeseburger, beef burger,
kids meals are the same.
- [JP] Oh, they got the Big Tasy here.
Got your standard fries, side salad...
(gasps)
Banana!
They don't have bananas in the U.S.
- But we know what that tastes like.
- [JP] Grand Chicken, McChicken, Chickenburger,
it's all the same thing.
- [Julia] Should we try that?
Yep, we're gonna have to get that.
I gotta try the Curry Sauce.
- [JP] Spicy Tandoori Sauce.
- [Julia] Was that a garlic mayo, too?
I've never seen that!
- [JP] Dude, crispy chicken strips are on it?
- They don't eat bacon.
It's not halal.
- [JP] What's Emmental Cheese?
Kitkat McFlurry?
Round brownie?
McCafe pastries?
- [Julia] I don't think I have the appetite
for all of this.
- [JP] I think the ice cream machine's down,
so let's just cancel that for now.
- [Julia] 23.38 U.S. dollars.
Look at that receipt.
That's crazy.
(intense music)
I'm like a big kid, because I have this cool thing
that I get to open.
It's like a present.
It says here, "To open the pack, use the easy-tear
"strip around the middle,"
which, here's the middle here.
- [JP] Wow, they give directions on
how to open it up, too,
which is really awesome.
(rips)
- It's like taking off a bra.
- Do the full 360 tear.
I can't wait to try Arabia's
10 out of 10 unpackaging alone.
- I love it.
- This is so cool.
- Don't litter, go pick it up.
- I didn't.
- Okay.
(Arabian music)
- My mind is blown.
- There's like a package inside the package.
- B-roll cam.
- [Julia] Let's see, see what's inside.
- [JP] Open that bad boy up.
(gasp)
That's chicken?
- [Julia] Yeah, these are some type of chicken patties
that they have.
Tomato, lettuce...
- [JP] Move that.
(gasp)
- Thoughts?
- A lot better than I thought it was going to be!
- [Julia] You don't even like Tsaziki,
so is it mayonnaise?
- It's not Tsaziki.
- It's Tsaziki.
- [JP] The pita's really nice, too.
That's something they don't offer in the U.S.
- Is this pita?
- Yeah, it's like naan.
- We don't even know what we're talking about.
- We don't know what we're talking about.
We're food reviewers.
(chuckles)
- What is that sauce?
- [JP] McCurry Sauce.
I cannot wait to see what this looks like.
(grunts)
I'm so hungry right now, just thinking about it.
- [Julia] The struggle is always real.
(grunts)
- Oh, yeah, what?!
Dude, you need to get, like, nuggets
for this curry sauce.
- Chugga chugga woop!
You know how I like my sauce: a lot.
- Whoa!
- Gotta bring you guys in on this spicy.
- It's just... flavors!
- [Julia] How does this look, mom?
- [JP] It's almost like split-pea soup.
But it doesn't taste like split-pea soup at all,
it tastes like curry.
- It's good, it's kinda spicy.
This is the Tandoori one.
- You sure it's not nacho cheese?
- That's good.
That's spicy.
(coughs)
- [JP] This is something else they don't have.
- [Julia] They do a garlic mayo sauce.
McDonald's here is fancy.
- I don't know, I'm not a big mayonnaise fan...
- Then you might not like it.
- Tastes like garlic mayonnaise.
Wow, is there horseradish in that?
- Next.
- Vegetarian style.
So they had a McVeggie in Italy,
play a clip of that.
- I told you there's a lot of mayonnaise.
- That was a sloppy bite.
But this is different.
Why is this different, Julia?
- [Julia] Because it's Tandoori flavored.
- And I think there's a pepper on it.
I think this is almost vegan, right?
No?
- I should have took a smaller bite.
- [JP] Oh, no, is it eggplant?
- [Julia] I can't tell.
- [JP] What do you think that is, guys?
- The texture's throwing me off.
I wanted the patty to be crispier.
I'm sorry, I love the sauce on you,
I just don't love you as the patty that you are.
We're breaking up.
- You know what it tastes like?
Fried zucchini, if it wasn't crispy.
Whoa, look at their ketchup!
Even their ketchup is cool!
- [Julia] I wonder if it tastes different.
- [JP] Pop it open and squirt it in your mouth.
- You wanna know why it's different?
It's kinda obvious, but all of this food is halal, you see?
- I don't think these things are meant to be open.
It's takes like it's got curry notes in it.
(gasp)
- Like it's a spicy ketchup?
- Yeah, it's like a spicy ketchup!
- I think it's just ketchup.
- It's just ketchup.
- But I will mix a little bit of that ketchup
with my curry sauce now.
Curry's gotta ketchup.
(chuckles)
(sings)
- This thing's called
the BBQ Beef Angus Burger Special Deluxe Sandwich.
- Sounds very American.
- Look at that bun!
Open that bad boy up.
What do we got underneath there?
Oh, there's that immaculated cheese,
or whatever they call it.
- [Julia] There's the chicken bacon.
- So, really, halal means you can't have cheese
on the meat, either.
- No, that's kosher.
- We're food reviewers.
- We don't know what we're talking about.
- Okay.
- So let's get facts and then talk about it.
- [JP] Halal, also spelled hallal, or halaal,
is an Arabic word that translates
as "permissible" in English.
The term "halal" is particularly associated
with Islamic dietary laws,
such as certain types of cheeses, pork,
basically anything prepared with alcohol
or animal fats are considered forbidden.
- With that being said, let's eat it.
- We're food reviewers.
That was weird.
- Hey, it's a good supplement for bacon,
if you're not eating bacon.
- The meat doesn't even taste right.
- It's really the opposite of what you want in your mouth.
This was the best.
The curry sauce is not too spicy,
but the Tandoori definitely has that elevated heat.
Try the sauces, they're really good.
It's definitely different than any other McDonald's
I've ever been to.
- [JP] This was a really nice pit stop.
Don't forget to subscribe, thumbs this video up,
because we are on our way to the Philippines.
- [Julia] Yes, we are!
- [JP] We're gonna try mixed spaghetti,
and a bunch of other crazy stuff.
- [Julia] Yes!
- [JP] So, guys, be sure you comment below
and let us know what fast food places
you want us to hit up while we're in the Philippines.
I know they're known for...
I know there's local fast food places, too,
that I've seen.
We have to say goodbye to Dubai.
But we'll be back.
And we'll say hi.
- Just gonna take like three more bites for the hell of it.
- [JP] You gotta see those milkshakes, though.
Maybe we should get one to-go.
- Milkshakes?
- All right, we're not done, we're gonna get a milkshake.
- [Julia] I didn't know I was so hungry.
(chuckles)
- [JP] Ah, did we get a pod?
- [Julia] No.
- [JP] This is like KC Night stuff.
- [Julia] Yeah, this is the extra stuff.
- [JP] This is what KC Night stuff got.
So, I don't get that pod?
Is this us?
- This is like an upgrade.
- [JP] Oh my god, we got it!
They gave us an upgrade!
I didn't even have to pay too much money.
I had to pay no extra money.
