Note to self: Watching David's videos while I'm hungry is not a good idea. 😂 Dude, the Luchi Ghugni and Dhokar Dalna look insanely good. I love anything with chickpeas and lentils, so I'm sure I'd love them as well! The egg toast looks fire and I used to love fried fish cutlets so I'm sure that would be right up my alley as well. And the banana flower chop sounds really interesting! Definitely something I'll have to try someday. Killer video, man!
Hey I wanted to tell u that It's really feel like a family now Every time I saw ur video immediately right after u uploaded on your channel.. Love u man 😍😘 Come to goa and eat some *konkani* food
C'mon now we are talking,today's episode was lovely❤❤Explore more.Anirban matched your enthusiasm level of food exploration which actually made the video awesome✌🏻
Without sounding too pretentious, of all metros of India, Calcutta has overall the cheapest street food hands down, with Chennai a close second. In most other cities only a few older parts of the cities have cheap food but in Kolkata the food is cheap literally everywhere. Effect of decades of communism I suppose, who knows. All I know is that I can get a plate of decent Fish cum Mutton Veg Thali for less than Rs 80/- there.
You do realise that communism isn't limited to just food only? Well, I'm not going to talk about it in detail anyway. In Venezuela, a socialist country, food may cost you more than gold in a capitalist country.
Dear David, There is a difference between Puri and Luchi. Puri is made of whole-wheat flour and Luchi is made of white-flour. Baturi on the other hand is also made of white-flour and has curd or yeast in the dough. None of them is a substitute for the other. Dhoka is made of matar-dal or chick-pea paste.
Nice seeing you guys trying Bengali street food. Though foreigners do not know it - and other Indians hate to admit it - Kolkata is the street food capital of India. You went to Dacres lane, which is generally a lunch destination for office goers. But you can go anywhere in Kolkata and find food of similar type. Having stayed in multiple cities of India, I know for sure that when it comes to street food - nothing beats Kolkata. The sheer variety is amazing ... you just scraped the surface. Luchi is at the lowest end of the taste spectrum ... there are dozen stuffed varieties.
WHENEVER I DON'T LIKE TO EAT ANYTHING IN THE MORNING... I CUT 1 SLICE OF BREAD IN 4 TRIANGLES AND DIP IN BEATEN EGGS AND DEEP FRY IT UNTIL GOLDEN BROWN... I ADD THESE IN THE EGG BATTER: SALT N PEPPER, WHOLE CORIANDER PWDR, RED CHILI PWDR, TURMERIC PWDR & A LITTLE PINCH OF GARAM MASALA... LOVE IT...
HEH YOU NEED TO EXPLORE 1. OUDH 1590 2. 6 BALLYGUNGE PLACE 3. ARSALAN (PARK CIRCUS) 4. BBQ NATION ( IF YOU HAVE TIME) 5. KATHI ROLL ( HEART OF KOLKATA, MUST TRY) 😎🤔🍸🤓
West Bengal food is less spicy and very tasty. You won't get good poisoning here easily. And Kolkata is a very cheap place to live. It's very cheap compared to other big Indian cities and if you visit rural Bengal, it's even cheaper.
The authentic Bengali guide did a fantastic job of showing you the true colour of Kolkata's street food. You could see his enthusiasm beaming through him. And I loved this street food your very much and boy David you look good with that beard and new haircut.😂
You are in right way now...you have tasted some of the best Bengali food...Anirban is the right guy. Nice to see your amazed face while u tasting our Bengali food...
I am also from WestBengal. Why didn't you taste the 'Sarshe ilish' the main food Bengali. You missed it😁. Next time must try it. Also wishing you.. ধন্যবাদ!কলকাতায় আসার জন্য। পরে আবার আসবেন।
Kolkata has the cheapest Street food hands down ! By the way I was there for 15 days and came back a week ago but still the taste of bengal still tickles my tounge ! .
Dude i am drooling over here but it sucks that i am not allowed to eat anything other than dal chawal and khichdi. Suffering from IBS and it sucks man. Everyone please take care of your health.
@@RickyRisha410 yeah its tasty but no tadka allowed and its been 2.5 months eating it. It became kinda boring. Literally testing my patience. I have to do for my good health
Thank you for have few of our original Bengali cousin like 'dhokar danla- lentil cake in spicy curry', Bengali style (without bone) fish fry, luchi and mochar chop(banana flower mix) ... Hope you like all those Bengali spicy food ... Thank you ...
Bengali foods are awesome..specially in Kolkata...David and Sam are really enjoying ... right.....as a Bengali..I love the video...lol David and Sam...nice look huh....and the Bengali host is amazing too...mochar chap...lovely...
Man you should take a train to Siliguri right away. You guys need to see Darjeeling, Kalimpong, Siliguri, and specially Dooars which has many wildlife sanctuaries and it's the only home to One horn Rhinos. And the food will blow your mind. I guarantee that
Anirban is a little miss on details... The roll was presented to the British in that way and came to be. Kolkata Biriyani story is the unique part missed(you can search anywhere in net) and whole aromatic spices and potato is its speciality.. and about banana tree we also eat the stem that is called 'thoor'(not the thunder god).
Kolkata might be a bit sloppy on the hygiene side, but I can guarantee that it is the cheapest State in India. There are still a few shacks here that offer tea for Rs. 3/- .
I ADORE BENGALI CUISINE!!...REASON!! MOST OF THE MEALS R COOKED IN MUSTARD OIL, WHICH HAS AWSOME TASTE, SMELL, AND IT IS THE HEALTHIEST COOKING OIL IN INDIA!!😍😍😘😘
Hi I am a Calcuttan by birth and have an affinity with this city. If I had to take a foreigner to eat street food, I would definitely not have chosen Decker street. There are many other healthy hygienic places where you get better flavour. Cost might be bit high but obviously it wasn't the cost that took you there. It's your foreign eyes that look for poverty hit dirt stricken places while visiting India. No? But still you can't deny the fact that we are an emerging power. Next time you visit, go to places which are better than what you find in your country. All the best.
Dalna,tugkuni, bora,narkel dudher bora 😋😋😵😵😵 makes me crazy. My mother hate me when ever she cooks these coz i don't leave her alone in kitchen through out that time I wanted to have it while cooking and she freaks out.
Sometimes I feel that if this man got a plane soft chapatai with salt..... The same expression will be on his face ... Hmmmm wow soft wow...amazing Best so far...😂
David did you visit any touristic places in Kolkata other than a few. You are just eating, eating and eating. There are even nice day trips from Kolkata.
Wish and hope that, you had a good times in India, from your inner self... They worked and served from their inner love... Hopefully everyone understood. $$$$ will never brings happiness...
