Eating MEXICAN FOOD with MARK WIENS for 24 HOURS in Phoenix, Arizona!!

???? MARK WIENS:
???? CARLOS:

With another day in Phoenix, Arizona ahead of me, I set out on an incredible Mexican food tour with my friend Mark Wiens! Come with me as I eat Mexican food with Mark Wiens for 24 hours in Phoenix, Arizona!

We’d be hitting up three spots for lots of delicious Sonoran dishes. Sonora is the Mexican state that borders Arizona. We’d be starting at Taqueria La Hacienda, a food truck that sells tacos, tortas, quesadillas, and more!

???? DAVID’S BEEN HERE MERCH:

Mark ordered two tongue tacos and two head tacos, as well as a breakfast burrito. After watching the cooks prepare it all in the truck, we started with the head tacos with onion and cilantro. Tacos de cabeza are quintessential breakfast tacos!

???????? TA’CARBON:
???????? MI LINDO MICHOACAN MEXICAN CORRAL:
???????? EL CAAPRICHOSO HOT DOGS:

I loved the spice level and the tortillas. I followed it with a pepper and the taco de lengua. It had an incredible texture and was full of flavor. The saltiness was also fantastic!

Then, we went with the chorizo and egg breakfast burrito. The crumbly scrambled eggs and minced chorizo with salsa and lime was unbelievable! It’s a true breakfast of champions. This was real Mexican food!

After finishing, we drove 15 minutes to Ta’Carbon for a caramelo and some carne asada tacos with cilantro, onions, lime, and salsa. They both used flour tortillas, which are more popular in Sonora, as opposed to the corn tortillas that are preferred elsewhere in Mexico.

The carne asada was so beefy and smoky! It was the best Mexican food of my life. Next, I had some horchata, or rice water, which is very sweet and combats the heat. Then, we jumped on the taco hass, which contained smoky chilies and cheese but wasn’t too hot. I loved it!

Finally, we had the caramelo, which is basically a quesadilla, which we added onions, cilantro, cabbage, salsas, and lime to. The flaky tortilla and smoky carne asada really made it!

Next, we drove to Mi Lindo Michoacan Mexican Corral, where we’d get some carnitas! It’s the best place for carnitas in Phoenix. Mark’s picture is even up in their window! In the kitchen, they let me try the carnitas, skin, and the stomach straight out of the vat of meat. It was so good and melted in my mouth!

First, we jumped on the nopales chalupa, which contains cactus, carnitas, and cheese, with spicy sausages on the side. The nopales had a bit of a slimy texture and was cheesy with a bit of a pickled flavor. I’d never had it before!

We also had carnitas tacos at our table with Carlos. You should add a combination of the carnitas, ribs, and stomach to your tortilla, as well as the picked onions, and salsa. The soft tortilla and rich pork were unreal, and adding the vegetables added some freshness. They were some of the best tacos of my life! The skin was the best!

From there, Carlos, Mark, and I headed to El Caprichoso Hot Dogs for some Sonoran hot dogs. They come wrapped in bacon and come with peppers, toasted buns, beans, tomatoes, sauces, cheese, caramelized onions, and more. They’re massive!

The bacon-wrapped hot dog and fluffy bun were incredible. I loved the sauces, which sauces make them so messy but so good! The peppers were hotter than jalapenos but slowly built, and the pillowy bun was fantastic with the earthy beans, sweet caramelized onions, and fresh tomatoes. I’m not a hot dog guy, but I loved this one!

Eating INDIAN FOOD for 24 HOURS in MIAMI!! Dosas, Thali & Lassi | Florida

???????? CHARCOAL INDIAN CUISINE:
???????? BOMBAY DARBAR:
???????? BOLLYWOOD MASALA:

What’s up, guys? For years, I’ve been getting requests to do a video where I eat nothing but Indian food for 24 hours. It’s something I’ve been wanting to do for a while, and today is the day! Come along with me as I eat Indian food for 24 hours, including dosas, a thali, and a lassi, in my hometown of Miami, Florida!

My day started in my office in Miami. Of course, I’ve eaten Indian food for weeks on end when I travel to India, but I’ve never done 24 hours of just Indian food at home in Miami. I couldn’t wait to get started!

???? TOMAS:
???? WATCH: The Ultimate Pani Puri Challenge:

First, I’d be heading to Charcoal Indian Cuisine in my neighborhood for breakfast, followed by Bombay Darbar for lunch, and finally, Bollywood Masala for dinner with my dad!

Charcoal Indian Cuisine is just a 5-minute walk from my office in downtown South Miami. I love this place! I’d be having dosas for breakfast there!

I met my boy Raj in the kitchen, who made me some yellow lentil sambar, a masala dosa, coconut chutney, and tomato chutney. Then, they made me a plain dosa in a cone shape, which is a cone dosa, followed by a Mysore masala dosa, which is spicy and has a hot paste inside! I couldn’t wait to eat!

I started with the Mysore masala dosa. I love that they put the chilies and curry paste inside as they cook it. It was really spicy and was fantastic with the lentil sambar and coconut chutney.

The plain dosa with the sambar was amazing as well! The tomato chutney was full of tangy tomato flavor! Then, the cone dosa was a bit more doughy on the inside. I added the aloo masala and coconut chutney to it. It was unbelievably good! They were so crispy and full of delicious layers.

After my Southern Indian breakfast, I walked back to my office, changed into my thali shirt, and then caught an Uber to Bombay Darbar in Coconut Grove.

In their kitchen, they made me several dishes for my two thalis! They mushroom makhani, channa masala, lamb, and regular butter chicken. I also had samosas, rice, sambar, chutneys, kheer (rice pudding), garlic naan, plain naan, and a mango lassi.

Out on their outdoor terrace, I started with the mushroom makhana. It was so creamy and flavorful and so good with the garlic naan. The tomato curry was unreal. Next, I jumped on the samosa and tamarind chutney. The samosa was crunchy and filled with potatoes, or aloo.

Next was the soupy daal and tandoori chicken. It was super smoky and contained garlic and cilantro. It was so tender! Next was the lamb pasanda, which was light and creamy. Eating it with the naan was the best!

The butter chicken is the #1 selling Indian dish in the West. It’s incredible and comes in a creamy tomato curry. I followed that with the channa masala, which was full of tender chickpeas. Then, I mixed the rice with the butter chicken and ate it with my hands! Adding the channa masala and tamarind chutney gave it even more flavor.

I finished up with the fruity and refreshing mango lassi and the creamy kheer. They cool down the heat!

From there, I headed back to my office and changed into my thali shirt before heading back out to Bollywood Masala for dinner. There, I picked up lamb vindaloo, chicken tikka masala, garlic naan, basmati rice, mango mousse, and chocolate mousse, and drove to my dad’s house.

We ate outside and started with the lamb. We loved the dark, rich gravy, but it was a bit too spicy for Dad! I loved it with the naan. Then, I added some rice and dug in with my hands!

What a phenomenal day of eating Indian food for 24 hours!

Eating INDIAN FOOD for 24 HOURS in LOS ANGELES!! Lamb Shank Curry & DTLA Butter Frankie | California

???? KYLE:
???????? BIRIYANI KABOB HOUSE:
???????? BOMBAY BEACH:

Los Angeles has some of the best Indian restaurants in the United States, so when I visited the city in August of 2021, I knew I had to go all-out and visit as many as I could. Join me as I eat Indian food for 24 hours straight in Los Angeles, California!

Joining me is my good friend and agent Kyle Hjelmeseth, who joined me at Biriyani Kabob House in downtown LA. It’s an awesome spot that serves authentic Indian, Pakistani, Bangladeshi, and Afghan food!

???? DAVID’S BEEN HERE MERCH:
???? MY TRAVEL/FOOD BLOG:

We were ready to crush as many dishes as possible! Inside, we met Sunny and headed back into the kitchen, where we saw the cooks making chicken tikka kabobs, beef kabobs, seekh kabobs, plain naan, garlic naan, lamb shank biriyani.

They also prepared some chicken tandoori and two of my favorite Pakistani dishes, chicken karahi and nihari!

Before we headed to our table, we also tried some mango lassi, which was thick and rich in sweet mango flavor.

At our table, we started with the plain naan and garlic naan with the chicken nihari and lamb dam biriyani. The biriyani had a huge piece of lamb in it! We also had a yogurt sauce called raita, which I mixed into my biriyani.

We dove right in with our hands and broke up the lamb with our hands. The lamb was nice and chunky, and the biriyani was perfectly seasoned.

Then, I jumped on the chicken nihari with some naan. It was light and flavorful without being super spicy. Next was the Nali Nihari, which is a thick, rich beef stew. The meat was full of coriander flavor and practically melted in my mouth!

Then, we tried the mixed grill, which contained chicken seekh kabobs, beef kabobs, and chicken tikka. It was all so juicy and tender!

The lamb shank curry was next. It came in an oily, tomato-based curry and the meat fell apart at the slightest touch. The key was the fat, and the meat just fell right off the bone. It was my favorite, along with the Nali Nihari!

Kyle tapped out as we left, but I continued on to Bombay Beach, which is run by a couple who makes homemade Desi food. Inside, I met Rubal and Angat, who serve a garlic-and-cheese paratha that is wrapped around marinated chicken tikka, garlic, onion, bell pepper, yellow rice, and butter masala. It’s called a DTLA Butter Frankie and is popular in Mumbai!

I also had some samosa chaat, one of my favorite street food dishes. It’s made up of a deconstructed samosa, chana, yogurt, coriander, mint chutney, tamarind chutney, and more. It was fresh, sweet, crunchy, creamy, herbal, and downright phenomenal!

Next was the Frankie, which was almost like a huge kathi roll. I enjoyed it with a Bombay Brahmi Badaam, which is a refreshing drink that contains an ayurvedic herb called brahmi, almonds, cashews, and lemon juice.

The chicken tikka and gravy inside the Frankie was exceptional, as were the bell peppers and onions. The rice held everything together, and the garlic-and-cheese paratha was bursting with flavor! It was a huge meal in itself!

After a break to let the food digest, I headed over to Kyle’s house to enjoy a Tandoori chicken pizza from Bombay Beach! Its crust was a super crispy naan and full of incredible spices, chicken tikka masala, a tomato-based sauce, onion, bell pepper, and cheese!

Then, we had two amazing desserts called rasmalai and gulab jamun! The rasmalai was creamy and decadent and contained a bit of pistachio and saffron. Meanwhile, the gulab jamun was soaked in a sugar syrup. It was like straight sugar but so good!

GIANT BEEF RIBS and Brisket - AMERICAN FOOD BBQ at Little Miss BBQ in Phoenix, AZ!

Little Miss BBQ serves unbelievable BBQ meat in Phoenix!
►SUBSCRIBE for 2 new videos per week:
►T-shirts available now:

Phoenix, Arizona, USA

For me, one of the ultimate American food meals to eat is awesome BBQ - when the meat is smoked perfectly so it slides off the bone, and the flavor is packed full of insane smokiness. My brother in law Derek had already been to Little Miss BBQ, but it was my first time to eat here, and I was so excited.

I arrived a little over an hour early to get in line, but luckily as soon as you pull up you get a number so that you don’t actually have to wait in line the entire time.

Scott and the entire crew at Little Miss BBQ are amazing, and you can immediately feel their passion and their genuine love for what they do and for the people they get to interact with everyday as a result of serving the best BBQ in Phoenix! Scott and his wife have an interesting and amazing grassroots history and start to their BBQ business. They first started making BBQ at home just because they loved doing it. Eventually they started competing in American BBQ competitions. At the beginning things didn’t go so well, but they kept going and perfecting their BBQ recipes and eventually started to win some of the competitions. Eventually they opened Little Miss BBQ, and it’s one of the best BBQ spots you’ll ever eat at.

So after getting the full tour of the restaurant and all the smoked meat, it was about time to open. You line up outside and the actual inside is quite small - most people either takeaway or eat outside.

I wanted to try a little of everything, so we got a giant tray of smoked BBQ meat including pork ribs, pulled pork, turkey, sausage, brisket, and beef ribs, with sides. Total price for the entire tray came to $92.70 - that was a lot of meat!

Thanks to my brother in law Derek for coming out to eat as well. We started with the beef ribs, and those are the best of the best. The meat falls apart and it was so insanely juicy and flavorful. The BBQ brisket will also blow you mind with its massive meaty flavor and juiciness. Finally my other top meat was the sausage, including jalapeno and a mix of meat and bacon.

Lastly, you have to eat your American food bbq feast with their famous pecan pie. And even though I’m not into sweets, a few bites at the end was amazing.

Little Miss BBQ is a phenomenal BBQ restaurant in Phoenix, Arizona. Not only will the quality and taste of the meat blow you away, but the passion of Scott and the entire crew are so genuine and so friendly, and that’s what makes it so good.

Thank you for watching this BBQ video!

Table Size Naan!! INDIAN FOOD - Giant Kebab Meal Cooked in the Tandoor!!

???? Eating an Alien Spiky Ball:
???? T-shirts and caps available now:
???? Charcoal Tandoor Grill:

BANGKOK, THAILAND - Welcome to Bangkok! Today we’re going to Charcoal Tandoor Grill, an Indian restaurant that specializes in all food cooked in the tandoor oven. From kebabs, to dal, to the biggest naan I’ve ever seen - literally the size of the table or blanket - we’re going to feast on an amazing tandoori meal!

Charcoal Tandoor Grill - They have a great concept, focus on serving food, all food, cooked in the tandoor oven. And as Prerak the manager explained to me, the restaurant also has roots in rural areas of India where people living in villages would hunt for game, and then roast everything in a fire, sharing with the community. They also only use charcoal tandoor clay ovens, no gas fires, which I think makes a huge difference in the taste and quality of the food.

We ordered a huge mix of tandoori specialties including an entire leg of lamb, chicken kebabs, a tandoori lobster, dal Charcoal style, biryani, and finally the massive family sized naan.

The food was extraordinary, you could taste the thick layers of spices and marinades, and the layers of smokiness from the tandoor cooking process. What I love so much about tandoori food is that the fire is so hot, and so it scorches the outside, yet the insides of what you cook remains so juicy and tender. This was the case for everything we ate. Really outstanding and tasty food.

Next, we had one of their famous biryanis. To be honest I was blown away, the fragrance and fluffiness was out of control. The tenderness of the lamb just melted in your mouth. Highly recommended to go with your kebabs.

Finally, for dessert we had what they call “the tree of life,” a mango tree filled with mangoes that were shaped into mangoes, yet made from Indian alphonso mangoes and soy milk and froze. It was a perfect way to end this amazing Indian food meal in Bangkok.

NOTE: This video is not sponsored, I arranged to eat here and film a video because I had heard great things about their tandoori food and their giant naan. However, after I asked for the bill, they insisted that I not pay for our meal. That being said prices range from about 400 - 600 THB per dish, with the lamb and lobster being about 1,500 THB each.

Eating INDIAN FOOD for 24 HOURS in SUNRISE!! Dosas, Tacos & Pizza | Florida

???? PATRICK:
???? PATRICK:

One of my favorite things to do when I’m at home is to eat nothing but Indian food for 24 hours straight in different cities around Florida. This time around, my eating adventure is taking place in Sunrise, and I’m being joined by my boy Patrick Blackwood!

Sunrise is located roughly an hour north of Miami and is known for its Indian restaurants. We were going to hit up three of them today, starting with a south Indian breakfast at Woodlands Veg Indian Cuisine. I couldn’t wait to have some dosas!

???????? WOODLANDS VEG INDIAN CUISINE:
???????? ARUN’S INDIAN KITCHEN:
???????? AIK TACO MASALA:
???????? TANDOOR PIZZA & DESI CUISINE:

We met my boy Carlos inside and watched them grill a dosa, which is a crepe made of fermented batter of lentils and rice. It’s served with different chutneys and a tomato-based vegetable soup called sambar. Then, we also watched them grill some uttapam, which is a thicker pancake that contains lots of vegetables!

This was Patrick’s first time having a south Indian breakfast! Our dosas were paper thin. We also had my favorite chutney, coconut, as well as some vada, which is a savory doughnut. The vada is also salty and goes well with the coconut chutney and the tomato-rich sambar!

Next was the uttapam, which was perfect with the coconut chutney. Patrick was amazed by it! It’s fluffy and adding the coconut chutney is the best part. It’s addicting and contains chilies and cilantro!

Then, we had our dosas! The masala dosa was both crispy and doughy and absorbed the flavor of the coconut chutney. The paper dosa was much crispier! Then, we jumped on the Mysore masala dosa, which contained aloo and a spice mixture.

It’s less crispy but more complex! It’s my favorite way to start a morning and is full of flavors and amazing textures! Then, we finished with a mango lassi, which was a little thick and full of mango flavor!

Next, we drove over to Arun’s Indian Kichen location in Sunrise, Taco Masala, for lunch. The owner, Yash, is a good friend of mine. You can order tacos and bowls or Indian entrees. The food here is more northern Indian!

In the kitchen, Yash hooked us up. They use whole wheat rotis in their tacos and have a mix of veg and non-veg dishes. They have dishes like chicken tikka masala, chicken curry, butter chicken, chicken biryani, rice, naan, channa masala, palak paneer, and shrimp Madras. We also had three Indian craft beers!

We started with cheese pakora, veg pakora, and aloo samosa, which came with mint chutney and a tamarind chutney. Both chutneys were sweet. The cheese pakora was like a Venezuelan cheese fritter, while the veg was great with the mint-chili chutney.

My chicken tikka masala taco with parsley, cheese, and onion was nice and spicy. It was my first Indian taco and I loved it!

Then, we had the palak paneer, butter chicken, shrimp Madras, and chicken curry with the naan. The butter chicken was creamy, while the palak paneer was a creamy, thick spinach. I loved the succulent shrimp Madras and the light gravy on it.

Then, we had the chicken biryani with our hands. It was amazing. I love eating with my hands and mixing the other curries into it. Finally, we finished with a creamy rasmalai with saffron and some gulab jamun. They’re both super sweet!

At our final spot, we headed to Tandoor Pizza and Desi Cuisine, where they make northern Indian food and Indian pizzas! There, we ordered a small, hot butter chicken pizza with green peppers. It was really spicy and contained arugula and was full of flavor!

What an incredible day of eating Indian food for 24 hours!

Eating INDIAN FOOD for 24 HOURS in MIAMI!! Lobster Tikka Masala & Royal Sizzler | Florida

???????? SAFFRON MIAMI:
???????? NAMASTE MIAMI:

As you guys may know, when I’m at home in Miami, I crave the food I would normally eat when I travel the world. Especially Indian food. So I decided to go on another eating Indian food for 24 hours adventure, this time in my hometown of Miami, Florida. Join me as I set out to try a lobster tikka masala, a royal sizzler, and more!

I’d be going to two Indian restaurants I’d never visited before and I was so excited! I love checking out new restaurants! My adventure began at Saffron Indian Cuisine in Pinecrest. They serve north and south Indian cuisine there and I could not wait to eat!

???? DAD:
???? WATCH: Eating Indian Food for 24 Hours in Sunrise, Florida:

My adventure began at Saffron Indian Cuisine in Pinecrest. They serve north and south Indian cuisine there and I could not wait to eat! Inside, I met the owner, Danny. The décor inside is meant to resemble the entrance to the City Palace in Jaipur.

The ambiance is very cozy and colorful. They have paintings of the doorways of the palace and a golden Buddha on the walls!

I started with some chai, which is one of my favorite things to drink in Miami. Then, I headed into the kitchen to watch the cooks prepare a bunch of dishes including lobster tikka masala, samosas, gobi Manchurian, sea bass, chicken lollipops, eggplant, a rice dish with dried fruit and cashews, mint paratha, drunken lamb, cheese garlic naan, and more.

I’d never seen a mint paratha before! This north and south Indian feast was going to be incredible!

Danny and I started with the lamb samosa, which was very different and minty. There were so many flavors and textures from the lamb and cilantro. I loved it with the mint-chili-chilantro chutney, but the tamarind chutney was the best for me!

Next were the Bombay-style chicken lollipops, a light gobi Manchurian, sea bass in a rich coconut curry, a mint paratha, sweet saffron naan, garlic naan, and a unique lobster tikka masala. I’d never seen it anywhere!

Next was the tender drunken lamb, tandoori chicken with a mint chutney marination, and baby eggplant. Then, we finished with some creamy kheer and rasmalai.

Then, I headed over to Namaste Miami in Coral Gables. There, I met Shravan, who prepared a special lunch for me. I started with some Sula wine!

They made a thali with lamb, samosa, raita, and salad, as well as tandoori chicken wings, and more. We started with some crisp rice snacks with tamarind chutney.

Next were papdi chaat, a samosa, aloo tikki, and more. The papdi chaat was nice and crunchy, while the aloo tikki was like a crispy fritter.

Then, we had a non-veg platter with a veg kebab and a sweet-and-sour baby corn chili. The chilli chicken wasn’t too spicy, and the tandoori chicken was tender, smoky, and buttery.

I followed that with lamb rogain josh, kadai paneer, chicken tikka masala, goat biryani, dal makhana, bullet naan, and shrimp and momos with gold leaf on top! The goat biryani was nice and light, and I mixed the rice with the curries. The naan with everything on the plate was amazing!

Then, I headed back to my office and then took my leftovers back to my dad. I was so full from eating earlier that I couldn’t eat anything except a few bites of papdi chaat!

He started with the chicken momo with gold leaf and moved on to the papdi chaat before grabbing a bit of everything! He loves Indian food as much as I do and loved trying so many new dishes!

Eating INDIAN FOOD for 24 HOURS in BOSTON!! Dosa, Lamb Masala Burger & Chicken Chettinad | USA

???? KEITH:
???????? MADRAS DOSA CO.:
???????? VAANGA:

My epic trip through New England continued in one of my favorite cities in America, Boston! Come with me as I eat Indian food for 24 hours in Boston, Massachusetts!

Joining me on this trip is my good friend—and the chef and owner at The Farmer’s Dinner and Aatma Restaurant—Chef Keith Sarasin!

✈️ CHECK OUT MY TRAVEL BLOG:
???? DAVID’S BEEN HERE MERCH:

Our day began at Madras Dosa Company in the seaport area, where we’d have a delicious southern Indian breakfast. Inside, I met Sruthi and Babu, who explained that they make food the way they love it back home in India. You can watch the dosas be made on the individual griddles!

They have unique dosas that are sweet, savory, and more. They even have one that contains Lay’s potato chips! We got two dosas and an idli chaat that was topped with several things, including chana, mint chutney, yogurt, tamarind chutney, and sev.

Keith got a sweet dosa with pomegranate seeds, while mine was savory and contained chips and onions. I loved mine with the sambar! Then, I tried some of Keith’s with whipped cream. The combination was insane!

I also loved the dosa with the ginger chutney. It was like a sweet, pasty jam and is my favorite chutney of all time! Mixing the malai and ginger chutney was a game changer.

Next was the idli chaat, which was amazing! It was spicy, sweet, sour, and oh so good!

Then, we walked downtown to Vaanga, a cozy restaurant where you can buy lots of street food dishes, as well as burgers, biryani, noodles, and more. In the kitchen, I watched them make dosas, a lamb burger, biryani, masala fries, and more!

Their hakka noodles had a spicy kick and were full of fresh vegetables. The biryani contained nice, meaty chunks of lamb. Adding raita made it creamy and even tastier!

Next was the lamb masala burger, which contained cheese and onion. Lamb is my favorite meat, and this burger was unreal! The masala fries were also great. Overall, it totally beats any fast food burger and fries!

Then, we tried the paneer naan in the kitchen. I loved the hot bread and paneer inside! Back at our table, we jumped into the yellow dal, which was too good!

Our final stop was 1947 in Norwood, Massachusetts. But first we needed to walk back to the car and then make the drive south, because we were full and needed a break.

1947 was very modern but still had that Indian feel. It’s named after the year India gained its independence! They have 250 dishes on their menu!

In the kitchen, they made idli, dosas, and more. At our table, we had chicken 65 lollipops, which were moist and covered in an amazing gravy with ginger and garlic. The masala idli was spongy and unreal with the sambar. I loved the spiciness and fluffiness! The coconut and peanut chutneys were also unbelievable!

Next was tandoori pomfret, a fish dish from Kerala. It was tender, moist, and smoky. I loved the texture of the skin, too!

Then, we jumped on the Mysore dosa. The peanut chutney was delicious, as was the coconut. The dosa was crispy and doughy, and not too spicy. The peanut and coconut chutneys together were on another level!

Next, we tried the chicken chetna with the roomali roti, which is a huge roti. I could see lots of spices in the chicken! It was light but full of complex flavor. The roti with the yellow dal also blew my mind. It was so rich and creamy!

The gobi Manchurian almost felt like popcorn chicken! It was fried to perfection and not too spicy. What a day of eating Indian food in Boston!

Eating INDIAN FOOD for 24 Hours in COCOA BEACH!! Lamb Madras & Fish Vindaloo | Florida

???? HALIM:
???? WATCH: Halim’s Video:

Welcome to another Eating Indian Food for 24 Hours video! This time around, I teamed up with my boy Halim to go all-out with a never-ending Indian food tour of Cocoa Beach and Melbourne, Florida. Come along with us as we eat Indian food for 24 hours in Cocoa Beach, Florida!

One of my favorite things to do when I’m home is to share my love of Indian food with my friends and family. So, when my friend Halim from Village Food Tours invited me up to Cocoa Beach, I knew I had to take him on an epic Indian food adventure!

???????? Taj: Modern Indian Cuisine:
???????? Punjab Cuisine of India:
???????? Flavors of India:

For the road trip, my friends at Chevy loaned me a beautiful 2021 Chevy Tahoe Z71. It has a built-in rear-seat media system and 40% more leg room in the third row. It also boasts built-in WiFi, and you can also wirelessly connect your iPhone or Android to the car and and use its apps on the touchscreen!

Halim and I started our Indian food adventure at Taj: Modern Indian Cuisine in Melbourne, Florida. The inside is very chic and has a beautiful outdoor terrace surrounded by an outdoor mall area with restaurants and gardens.

In the kitchen, they made us some butter chicken enchiladas, naan, paneer tikka, and more! They’re all about creating new takes on Indian favorites!

Our four dishes included samosa chaat topped with tamarind chutney and mint-cilantro chutney; butter chicken enchiladas; tandoor chicken wings; hand-cut masala fries; and more.

The tandoor chicken wings were smoky and baked, while the masala fries were full of flavor. Then, we jumped on some chai, which quite a bit of ginger and cardamom in it. The samosa chaat was nice and crunchy and the mix of the sweet tamarind, creamy yogurt, and mint-cilantro chutney was unreal!

Next were the butter chicken enchiladas, which were topped with tons of cheese. I loved the tomato-based gravy and the mix of vegetables. My favorite dish was the samosa chaat. It was so complex!

We were full, so we took a four-hour break. We headed about 25 minutes east to Cocoa Beach. First, we took some time to explore Cocoa Village, and then we arrived at Punjab Cuisine of India in Cocoa Beach for some Punjabi food!

In the back, they made some chicken tikka masala, saag paneer, naan, samosas, chili paneer, and more. Everything smelled incredible!

We had some pilaf, veg samosas, pickled chutney, chicken tikka masala, saag paneer, garlic naan, and mango lassi. The samosas were a little spicy and the pickled chutney was nice as well.

The garlic naan contained some tasty herbs, and I loved eating it with the creamy saag paneer. The chicken tikka masala was really hot, temperature-wise but was great with the naan. I was getting full again!

We ended our evening there and then met back up the next morning for breakfast at Flavors of India.

The interior felt like Kerala and the owner is from the backwaters area! He made us some lamb madras, biryani, Kashmiri naan, and more! He cooked the bread on top of the biryani dish inside the tandoor!

We had fish vindaloo, tandoori drumsticks, Kashmiri naan, butter naan, lamb madras, and dessert! The drumsticks were super smoky and meaty with a ton of spices on them. Then, we jumped on the fish vindaloo, which contained curry leaves and mustard seeds. I could smell the coconut in it!

The Kashmiri naan was sweet and nutty because of the fruits and nuts. The fish was incredible, but we had to look out for bones. I loved how unique the chicken dum biryani was, and the lamb madras gravy had a bit of heat to it! Then, we finished with chai and a smoky chocolate mousse!

Eating INDIAN FOOD for 24 HOURS in SOUTH FLORIDA!! Goat Dum Biryani & Zaika Malabar Chicken | USA

???? DODGE:
???? PAULO:
???? MY TRAVEL/FOOD BLOG:

What’s up, my friends? Today, I’m off on another eating Indian food for 24 hours adventure, but this time is super special because I’ve teamed up with Dodge to give away a car worth up to $105,000 to one lucky winner! Let’s go!

For this video, I’d be teaming up with my friend Paulo, an amazing videographer here in Miami. We’d be cruising around South Florida in a beautiful Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat, making our way from Pompano Beach to Miami!

???????? DECCAN SPICE:
???????? ZAIKA INDIAN CUISINE:
???????? DHABA INDIAN KITCHEN:

Our first stop was Deccan Spice in Pompano Beach, where I met Soma and his wife Niru. There, they made me an authentic Hyderabadi-style goat dum biryani, garlic naan, tandoori shrimp, chicken hakka noodles, goat sukka, and cabbage pakoras! I ate them right in the kitchen!

The cabbage pakoras were crispy and flavorful, and went well with the tamarind and mint-cilantro chutneys. The tandoori shrimp were succulent and smoky, while I loved the dry masala in the goat sukka. The bone marrow was excellent and the coconut and curry leaves added an amazing amount of flavor!

Next was an authentic South Indian dish called chintha chiguru made with lamb. I loved the light and creamy gravy and tamarind leaves! I’d never had this dish before but I loved it! The chicken hakka noodles had a nice crunch from the onions and were super spicy!

The Hyderabadi dum biryani came with an egg and raita. It was so aromatic and I loved the onions. I added a chili to add some heat. Then, I tried the garlic naan with the chintha chiguru gravy. So good!

Then, we drove to Zaika Indian Cuisine in North Miami Beach, where we met Manoj. In the kitchen, I watched as they prepared a goat masala, a whole tandoori chicken, bullet naan, and Zaika Malabar chicken.

At our table, I started with a refreshing and creamy mango lassi shot. The bullet naan with the Zaika Malabar chicken was great. The naan was really spicy and I loved the coconut-based curry. I really liked the goat, which was super tasty. The sizzling, smoky, and juicy tandoori chicken was also excellent!

From there, we drove from North Miami Beach to Dhaba Indian Kitchen in Miami. My friend Arvind made me some Indian street foods, including a kathi roll, a Mumbai sandwich, and chicken lollipops.

The kathi roll was similar to a wrap and full of chicken, masalas, and cabbage. I added chili paste to make it spicy! Then, I jumped on the chicken lollipop with the chili paste, which gave the crispy chicken wing meat a nice kick! It also went well with the mint and tamarind chutneys.

My last dish was the Mumbai Sandwich, which contained aloo, sev, and vegetables between three slices of bread. I liked the lightly toasted bread and refreshing cucumber, as well as the soft, mashed aloo. Adding tamarind chutney really set it off!

And that’s it! Three incredible Indian restaurants in South Florida. Huge thanks to Dodge for sponsoring my latest eating Indian food for 24 hours adventure! Don’t forget to go to dodge258.com for your chance to win a Dodge car worth up to $105,000!

Eating INDIAN FOOD for 24 HOURS in Parsippany, New Jersey!!

???? NISHA:
???? YVES:
???????? ANKUSH:

With so many incredible Indian restaurants in the New York City area, I knew I had to end my trip with a bang and go all-out. Join me as I eat Indian food for 24 hours in Parsippany, New Jersey!

Joining me is my friend Nisha, who told me that Parsippany is home to upwards of 10,000 Indian-Americans. Along with us were her husband Josh and my videographer, Yves.

✈️ CHECK OUT MY TRAVEL BLOG:
???? DAVID’S BEEN HERE MERCH:

We started at Dhaba Express, which is owned by my friend Ankush! His chefs would be making us roughly 10 dishes. Everything from the curries to the naan looked so good!

Our dishes included chole bhature, aloo paratha, achari mushrooms, and more. We started with chole bhature, a dish I first tried on the streets of Delhi. I loved the chickpeas and light gravy. The bhature was doughy and tasty!

You eat the aloo paratha with dahi. It was stuffed with potatoes, chilies, cilantro, onions, and a delicious masala. We followed that with a creamy lassi and the murgh khurchan pav, which is a toasted bread bun with a delicious and buttery chicken keema.

The tandoori chicken wings, achari mushrooms, and soya chop malai were next. The soya chop malai was creamy and incredible, while the achari mushrooms were smoky with a nice marinade.

I also loved the smoky tandoori chicken wings and mango chicken! The coconutty kori gassa took me right back to Kerala! It was my favorite so far!

Then, we headed to Jashan by Dhaba, another of Ankush’s restaurants. But first, we stopped at Delight Big Bazaar, the largest Indian grocery store in Parsippany. We saw lots of produce, like chilies. I bit into one and it almost killed me!

We also saw rose syrup, which they use to make falooda, idly rice, basmati rice, snacks, chaat mixes, and lassi! I needed the lassi after that pepper! We also saw Desi ghee, sweet chilly sauce, stainless steel cookware, and tons of spices!

As we continued, we also saw pani puris and them making kachoris. There’s also a mini bazaar where they sell clothing and jewelry! I bought my daughters some bangles.

Next was Jashan by Dhaba for lunch, where there was a party going on! After visiting the kitchen and sampling a bit of chicken, it was time to eat!

The lamb chops were moist and covered in an amazing masala. They were great with mint and tamarind chutneys. The paneer akbari was stuffed with three types of cheese and was very unique! I also loved the tangy and smoky tandoori chicken with the tamarind chutney!

The chatpata chicken came with lots of veggies! The honey crispy vegetables reminded me of honey chicken. Then, we jumped on the curries starting with the tender and moist bone-in butter chicken.

The goat curry was unreal with the sweet and nutty kashmiri naan. I loved the shaam savera kofta (dumplings in cashew gravy) with kashmiri naan and roomali roti. The gravy was good enough to drink!

I loved the paneer curry too, and added some rice to the gravies. Then, we finished with fresh lime soda before heading to House of Biryani’s & Kebabs. On the way, we passed a Hindu temple!

They serve lots of Hyderabadi food here! After visiting the kitchen, we enjoyed some haleem, Chicken 65, roast mutton, and gobi. The Chicken 65 was so flavorful, and the mango lassi cooled down my mouth. I loved the gobi, but the roast mutton was nice and spicy!

The haleem was thick and pasty, and the tandoori cornish hen was so tasty and spicy. Their lamb chops blew my mind and the mutton biryani was fatty and flavorful! Then, we finished with kheer, a type of sweet rice pudding!

Eating INDIAN FOOD for 24 HOURS in CORAL SPRINGS!! Pani Puri, Kebabs & Butter Chicken | Florida

???????? SALMA’S CUISINE: 1-954-507-1234
???????? TARKA KARAHI KABAB:
???????? ARUN’S INDIAN KICHEN:

As many of you guys already know, I am addicted to Indian food. I try to eat it at least once a week when I’m at home in Miami, and every now and then, I like to go all-out and eat nothing but Indian food for 24 hours straight! Today is one of those days. Come with me on my latest adventure, eating Indian food for 24 hours in Coral Springs, Florida!

My adventure took me to Coral Springs, a city roughly an hour north of Miami. It’s one of the best places in south Florida to eat Indian cuisine. I started at Salma’s Cuisine for breakfast!

???? DAD:
???? WATCH: Eating Indian Food for 24 Hours in Tampa:

I met with Salma and started with one of my favorites, pani puri! The puris contained some potatoes, mint chutney, and chickpeas. They were so crunchy and full of flavor.

Then, I jumped on the chicken behati roll, which was delicious and was similar to a kathi roll without the egg. Then, she brought me some beef samosas, chicken tandoor samosas, and chicken biryani. The samosas came with chili and tamarind chutney.

They was so tasty and contained green beans! The chili and tamarind chutney went well with everything. I loved the heat and sweetness! Adding some creamy raita helped calm down the heat!

The chicken tandoori samosa was crispier and smoky. The spring onions inside were outstanding! I followed that with the chicken biryani. I added some creamy raita and mixed it together with my hands.

I finished with some Pakola, which is a Pakistani cream soda. I’m not a big soda person and tasted like creamy rose water.

I packed everything to go and then headed to get some lunch. The next restaurant, Tarka Karahi & Kabab House, was only six minutes away. They sell authentic Pakistani cuisine. On the walls, they had images of sites around Pakistan, the Pakistani flag, and more!

I met Ismail, who took me to the kitchen, where they made me some mutton karahi, which contains about 15 spices, jalapenos, spring onions, and ghee! They also made me some chicken tikka, a chicken sikh kebab, sesame seed naan, kulcha, butter chicken, beef sikh kebab, and more!

The chicken tikka was massive and juicy, with an incredible smoky flavor. The marinade had soaked into the meat! We also had some chutney made from tamarind, a mint chutney, and more. The beef sikh kebab was lightly seasoned but super flavorful. I loved it with the naan and chutneys!

The naan and butter chicken was so different but still unreal! The flavors and textures of the beef kebabs, naan, and chutneys had my mouth watering. Next was a sweet and milky mango lassi, which they make in-house.

Next was chicken with the naan, which was fresh and oily with a light gravy. The Pakistani cuisine was somewhat similar to Indian, but the flavors were different. The mutton Lahore karahi was also outstanding. It was fatty, a little spicy, and full of flavor! It contained ginger, garlic, chilies, and more!

We had some kheer, a creamy rice pudding with nuts that cooks for 8-9 hours! Then, we had some paan with coconut and some chai!

After packing up my lunch, I headed to Arun’s Indian Kichen to get some dinner to take back to my dad in Miami!

I met Arun and Yash and headed into the kitchen, where they prepared several dishes including naan, biryani, butter chicken, eggplant, and lamb Madras, channa msala, gulab jamun. Then, I took it home to my dad!

We got a little bit of everything and dug in! The lamb Madras with naan was light on the spices and very creamy, while the eggplant was super tasty. The naan was fluffy and full of layers, and the channa masala was light with tons of chickpeas! What a day!

Eating INDIAN FOOD for 24 HOURS in EDISON!! Dosas, Pani Puri & Falooda | New Jersey

???? DEWAN:
???? TASOS:
✈️ CHECK OUT MY TRAVEL BLOG:

After years of people telling me that I needed to try the Indian food in Edison, New Jersey, I finally made it there! Come along with me as I go all-out with an epic day of eating Indian food for 24 hours in Edison, New Jersey!

Edison, New Jersey holds the distinction of having the largest Indian population in the western hemisphere, so the Indian food there is legendary! My boy Dewan would be taking me around to the top restaurants in town to try as much as possible!

???????? SARAVANAA BHAVAN:
???????? TABAQ RESTAURANT:

We’d be eating some street foods and a mix of north and south street foods. We began our day at a strip mall containing several Indian restaurants, an Indian grocery store, and an Indian clothing store. There, we started at Saravanaa Bhavan, a vegetarian restaurant that mostly specializes in southern Indian food!

Inside, it was super colorful, and in the back, we watched them make an amazing ghee roast dosa, which we had with sambar, tomato chutney, mint chutney, and coconut chutney. The dosa was nice and crispy, while the mint chutney was flavorful and had a bit of spice!

I also loved the sambar, but my favorite was the coconut! I love dosas—they’re so crispy and savory. We enjoyed some Karnataka filtered coffee along with it and then had a plain dosa! The plain dosa had less ghee. I liked it better!

The veg thali came with rice, papadum, puri, and twelve curries. The coffee was great, and then we jumped on the chole bhature with chana masala. It was nice and light, with chunky chickpeas. It reminded me of a Thai curry.

The curries were excellent, and the savory vada donut with coconut chutney was amazing. I loved the crispy exterior and lentil batter.

Then, we headed to Tabaq Restaurant, which sells a mix of Indian, Pakistani, and Bangladeshi food. Dewan and I started with zafrani kheer, a creamy dessert from Lucknow with saffron. It’s creamy and super sweet!

Then, we jumped on chicken boti, whcih is grilled chicken with onions with raita on the side. The chicken had a charred flavor, juicy texture, and an amazing masala mixture on it!

Then, we headed to India Grocers, which is a massive Indian supermarket. We saw a huge selection of rice, batters, frozen foods, ghee, soya, dosa pans, kulfi, dishes, and more!

Next, we headed over to Desi Galaxy, which sells milkshakes, jalebi, kati rolls, masala tea, lassi, and pani puri! I tried a spicy pani puri, which was the spiciest one I’ve ever eaten in my life! These contained a tiny amount of aloo and a lot of pani, or water.

Our next snack was falooda and a rose lassi. I went with the rose lassi. I’m a big fan of rose water. It was thinner and frothier than other lassis, but it was really good. Then, I tried Dewan’s falooda, which was also pretty liquidy and contained some nice jellies.

Finally, we stopped at Mughal Express, where we got a butter chicken pizza. They also sell lots of Indian sweets like rasmalai and gulab jamun! The creamy butter chicken mixed with the cheese and herbs was fantastic!

We finished with rasmalai with ice cream, saffron, and rice pudding. It was the best rasmalai I’d ever had and had an American twist to it. The gulab jamun contained some fruit, pistachio, cake, and cream!

Eating INDIAN FOOD for 24 HOURS in CURRY HILL!! Lamb Rishta, Tangdi Kabab & Butter Paneer in NYC

???? ANKUSH:
???? TASOS:
✈️ CHECK OUT MY TRAVEL BLOG:

After an amazing trip to New York City in September of 2021 to explore the food culture in America’s biggest city, I knew I couldn’t stay away for long. Come with me as I kick off my second New York series by eating Indian food for 24 hours on Curry Hill in Manhattan, NYC!

For this entire adventure, I’d be teaming up with my boy Ankush, a local who owns seven Indian restaurants! We’d be eating at four of them in the Murray Hill area, which is known as Curry Hill because of the over two dozen Indian restaurants there!

???? DAVID’S BEEN HERE MERCH:

We’d be starting at Sahib Indian Cuisine, which was established in 2017. They’re known for their renowned chicken biryani, which was named one of the top 10 international dishes in NYC by the New York Times.

At our table, we had chicken chops, which are marinated with spices, yogurt, mayonnaise, and other items. It was a little spicy and super tender. I loved the subtle flavor of the marinade. It went really well with our mint chutney!

Next were two Kashmiri dishes: lamb rishta and dum aloo with some rosemary naan. Both are sweet gravies, which is what Kashmir is known for. The lamb rishta gravy is saffron based, while the dum aloo is tomato based.

The lamb rishta was nicely balanced with cream and saffron, and the lamb itself was unreal! I loved the bright rosemary flavor in the naan. Next was the dum aloo, which is a stuffed potato in a makhani-like gravy.

Next was the chicken biryani. I could see why it was so renowned! It had a smoky flavor and went well with the creamy boondi raita and the lamb rishta gravy. It was incredible!

Then, we headed next door to Dhaba Restaurant, where they sell 250 items. It reminded me of an Indian dhaba and had a bar. After watching them prepare dishes in the kitchen, we started with some frothy rose lassi.

Then, we had the tangdi kabab, which is a tangy, smoky, and spicy piece of chicken. I loved it with the mind and tamarind chutneys. The pahadi kabab is very spicy and contains tons of chilies. It’s the spiciest chicken I’ve ever had in my life!

Next was the sarson ka saag, which contains mustard leaves, spinach, and cornmeal with makki da roti. It’s very creamy but is pure mustard leaves. The makki da roti is a thin, crispy cornmeal roti!

The black pepper chicken is eaten with roomali roti, which reminded me of Armenian lavash. It wasn’t too spicy and was very creamy.

Next, at Chote Nawab, a Lucknow-inspired restaurant, we had tunday kababi, kakori kababs, salmon tikka, Hyderabadi goat biryani, lachha paratha, and butter paneer.

The tunday kababi took me straight back to my time in Lucknow. The coriander and garam masala were on point and it worked well with the mint chutney! I couldn’t get enough of the smoky kakori kabab, which had a different marinade on it.

I also loved the salmon tikka, which had been marinated in yogurt. It was so meaty and my favorite dish so far. The butter paneer was amazing, as was the goat biryani with raita and mirchi ka salan, which is a meaty tomato sauce with peanuts.

Next, we saw bangles, wedding clothing, dresses, and more at Heritage India Fashions. Then we got 7 dishes at Wok in the Clouds, which sells Indo-Chinese food. The chicken lollipops were crispy and meaty, and the chicken momos were soft and tender.

They went well with the chili sauce, while the spring rolls went with a sweet chili sauce. The chili paneer was dense and chunky, and the hakka noodles, fried rice, and Hong Kong chicken were also exceptional!

What an amazing day of eating Indian food in Curry Hill!

Eating INDIAN FOOD for 24 HOURS in WASHINGTON D.C.!! Dosas, Butter Chicken & Thali | USA

???? KEVIN:
✈️ KEVIN:

Recently, I took a quick, one-day trip up to Washington, D.C. to explore the city’s Indian food scene, and of course, to check out some of the historical sites! Come along with me as I eat Indian food for 24 hours in Washington, D.C.

My day started at Saravana Palace in Fairfax, Virginia with my boy Kevin, who would be joining me on this Indian food adventure! They sell South Indian food, so I couldn’t wait to enjoy some dosas, idli, vada, and more!

???? DAVID’S BEEN HERE MERCH:

There, we started on the paneer dosa, which I’d never had before. It was stuffed with paneer, vegetables, and herbs. It was amazing with the sambar—a little spicy, doughy, and creamy, and so flavorful! The coconut chutney was good enough to drink!

We also had mango lassi, which was thinner than other lassis I’d had and full of mango pulp and flavor. Next was the vada, which we dipped into all four dips! The combination was unreal and full of spice from the tomato chutney! It was also creamy and refreshing! The peanut chutney was thicker and nutty, but the coconut chutney was the best!

The idli soaked up the sambar and worked really well with the other chutneys, too. I loved it with the peanut chutney! Next, the uttapam contained tomatoes, peas, onions, cilantro, chilies, and herbs and was perfect with the coconut chutney. The Mysore dosa contained potatoes and was super savory and not too spicy.

Next was a massive puri with chole, which took me right back to Delhi. The doughy puri and chole with gravy, onions, and chilies was so authentic. Finally, the paper dosa with the coconut chutney was so crispy, and the peanut blew me away! Then, as we were leaving, they gave us gulab jamun and carrot halwa.

The gulab jamun was super sweet and syrupy, while the carrot halwa was crumbly, nutty, light, and tasty! Then, we headed to Butter Chicken Company in D.C.. Along the way, I tried a Limca soda and Thumb’s Up soda.

They only sell 300 orders per day at Butter Chicken Company, a fast casual lunch spot. I went with the butter chicken, chicken tikka masala, saag paneer, chana masala, and veg biryani. The biryani was so minty and full of carrots, corn, and herbs. I also loved the chicken tikka masala and the light chana masala. Everything was amazing with some garlic naan!

Next, we took a break from eating and walked past the White House to the Washington Monument. Along the way, we passed the Department of the Treasury and Capitol Hill. We passed a field of flags of people who have died from COVID and then headed to the World War II Memorial and the Lincoln Memorial.

Then, after walking off our food, we drove through the Georgetown area to Bombay Street Food. We started with bhelpuri with mint and tamarind chutneys. It was light, refreshing and crunchy. The tamarind added some sweetness! Both chutneys together were incredible!

Their gobi Manchurian was both sweet and sour and had a nice, crispy texture. I cleansed my palate with some Taj Mahal beer and then jumped on the veg and non-veg thalis! The lamb rogaine josh was amazing and the raita cooled down my mouth. I loved the creamy saag paneer and the chicken tikka masala. The chana masala was really light and so tasty!

I also enjoyed the gobi Manchurian, and the naan with the juicy, tender lamb was excellent. The naan with the raita was also great and cooled down the heat in my mouth! The smoky and charred tandoori chicken was also melt-in-your-mouth amazing!

Last was the gulab jamun, which was a sugary syrup explosion in my mouth! What a way to end our Indian food tour!

Eating INDIAN STREET FOOD for 24 HOURS with @thefoodranger in DUBAI, UAE!!

????TREVOR:
????TING:
???? MY TRAVEL/FOOD BLOG:

Back in December of 2021, I set out to explore the United Arab Emirates, a country I’ve traveled to before in the past but never vlogged. There, I met up with my boy Trevor James, a.k.a. The Food Ranger, for an unforgettable street food adventure! Come with me as I eat Indian street food for 24 hours with The Food Ranger in Dubai, UAE!

We’d be spending our day by going on a non-stop Indian street food tour of Old Dubai and Al Karama. We’d be joined by Ting, who works with Trevor, and made our first stop at Rokn Al Fahedi Cafe.

???? DAVID’S BEEN HERE MERCH:

We watched them make methi aloo parathas stuffed with aloo methi. Mint, cumin seeds, onions, and chilies get baked into the parathas as well!

The stuffed parathas are like north Indian pizzas! They came with mint chutney, yellow dal, and pickled chilies called achar. I loved dipping the paratha into the thick yellow dal. The paratha was spicy, potent, and full of ghee flavor. The achar was also spicy!

We finished up with some incredible masala chai and some mango lassi to cool down our mouths!

Next, we headed to Veg World, which has about 500 dishes on their menu. We’d be going there for their jini and masala dosas. They make their jini dosa with pav bhaji gravy and top it with cheese, butter, and cilantro! They also made us a massive grilled Titanic sandwich.

The jini dosa was spicy, tomato-y, buttery, and cheesy! It was doughy and crispy and had some Szechwan flavors as well. It was so flavorful with the coconut chutney. One of the best—and messiest—dosas ever!

The Titanic sandwich was crispy and refreshing, with mint chutney, cucumbers, tomatoes, and cheese. The masala dosa was amazing with the sambar, and they brought us some fluffy, spicy dhokla. It came with some hot and sweet chilies!

Then, we drove through the Al Karama area to Jaffer Bhai’s Restaurant, which is known as the Biryani King of Mumbai! We watched them fry some lamb brains, which they scrambled with a gravy and vegetables. They were like upgraded scrambled eggs!

They also made mutton biryani, mutton seekh kebabs, and garlic butter naan. The naan with butter chicken was so delicious. It was thicker and pastier!

The smoky naan was also unreal with the mutton brain fry. The mutton seekh kebab was tender, garlicky, and minty; and our mango lassi was fruity and refreshing. The malai lamb chops were also tender and buttery!

Finally, we had the mutton biryani, which was so flavorful. I loved the bone marrow and the tender meat! Adding the butter chicken gravy made it even better!

From there, we walked to Mumbai Express for the pani puri. They have tamarind pani and mint-cilantro pani. They were like crunchy, sour, spicy, and sweet flavor explosions! Then, we took a mini-break.

Finally, we headed back to Meena Bazaar for pav bhaji at Vaibhav. It looked super buttery and full of vegetables. It’s extremely buttery, with a soft bun. It wasn’t too spicy and was really good!

Next, we headed to a small shop for matka chai, which they serve in clay cups. I could taste cardamom and ginger, and it also had chunks of pistachio and almond!

Then, we saw how they make tunday kababi at Via Lucknow, which fell apart like butter and came with Mughlai paratha and saffron sheermal! The sheermal is orange and is baked in the tandoor. It’s thick and milky and has lots of layers like a parotta!

Next was the boti kebab, which is made of mutton in a rich, gingery gravy. I loved it! We finished with a sweet called shahi tukda, which was a decadent, nutty sweet, and jalebi.
