I wish we have these kinds of South Indian food in Malaysia. The Malaysian Indian food originates from South India. Historically, majority of the Malaysian Indians have roots that can be traced back to South India. 🤤🤤🤤😋😋😋👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

So true Su-Ling, we love that South Indian food is so popular in Malaysia. It's been great to be here and explore the food culture more in depth too- everything is so delicious! Thanks for watching and commenting mate. Cheers, Sheena

Chasing a Plate - Thomas & Sheena You're most welcome, Thomas and Sheena. 🙃🙃🙃

[@senankamalakanan5128]

Su-Ling Chia You can find most of this across all indian restaurants in Malaysia,go for banana leaf la. Noodles itself was probabbly introduced to india in the last few decades,so Malaysian Indians history going back to before world wars kind of evoled from Malay + Chinese style noodle cooking. Putu Mayam is different to mee hon though.

[@ftinftin8937]

Senan Kamalakanan it looks more exciting there cos of the huge population, they have to cater to more people, you can see so many people passing by. They have to prepare the food in larger quantity it's so much fun to watch besides being yummy ya... Yummmsss... :))

[@sourayanbiswas4591]

@Su-Ling Chia I would love to visit Malaysia and taste Malay, Chinese, South Indian and Bengali foods which are available over there. Is Bengali food available in Malaysia? :)

[@canceriangal4443]

You guys are amazing. I lived in Chennai for two years in 2003. Brought back so many memories. They have good restaurants too. Try Chettinad cuisine. Great job as usual. You guys deserve more subscribers!!!

[@moinakbhattacharya878]

Chennai belongs to a state called Tamilnadu. It has century old history of traders from diffrent parts of the world dropping in for trading on various goods. They brought with them their spices, food, culture, tradition.. Enterprising tamil businessmen went to far east countries, carrying their own traditions. So the state has become a melting pot of sorts. There is no Tamil food, or indian food as such, because it changes in every 100 miles with mindboggling variations, twists and turns. Keep an eye on historical facts associated with the place and food while you enjoy this.

[@Labracadabrador101]

This makes me so happy. It's so nice to see people exploring indian street cuisines and enjoying them. I'm binge watching street food vlogs and missing these wonderful dishes during the lockdown. Hope you had a great time in Chennai!!

There are few videos on Chennai's street food scene and I'm very glad that yours is among the even fewer ones that makes a Chennaite feel this nostalgic. I can't believe that you covered Karpagambal mess. You made me jump because I know that place so well! :) I just regretting that you didn't try the bhutta or the sundal at the beach and maybe a typical full scale Tamil breakfast would have also been nice.

[@ChasingaPlate]

Hi Varsha Narayanan, thank you so much for the lovely comment and we're so glad you enjoyed the video. Karpagambal Mess was great- in fact all the messes we visited in Chennai were awesome. We love the city so much- the people, the food- it was our kind of place! Hope you like the other Chennai videos we have coming- 3 more to come- although there was still so much we missed out on. We can't wait to get back here and film even more! Thanks for watching! Cheers, Sheena 😄

Also dont miss Plantain Pith Stem Soup...which is served along with it..Dont forget to add soup to "Atho" If you have any plans to visit Chennai again, Please don't miss "Atho" Atho is also available in many parts of Chennai, but famous is Parrys 2nd line beach road

Mate, I'm so stoked that you guys are touring South India. I'm from the state of Kerala, now living in Australia. You guys definitely gotta head over to Kerala and try the local street food there. Chennai in Tamil Nadu is predominantly vegetarian and if you are heading over to Hyderabad, it's mostly lamb and mutton. If you want chili beef (the good stuff) and Porotta (the flaky roti bread) you guys definitely need to pop over to Kerala. All the very best for your travels. Be safe and keep up the good work. Lots of love and thumbs up from a fellow Aussie-Indian.

We found the people to be so friendly and welcoming and the food culture was insanely good 😍 we can’t wait to return to TN to explore more. Omg we didn’t have the lassi 😭 given that it is called Bombay LASSI I don’t know why we didn’t! But I guess it’s a good excuse for us to return 😍 hope you enjoy our other Chennai videos 😄 Cheers, Sheena

[@krishnakumar.s7193]

[@ranjanim6759]

U can find all types of cuisines in Chennai..but u have come at the wrong time...April and may are the hottest months of Chennai...it’s really hard to tolerate the heat..even the locals will never step out of the house in this 2 months...take care guys👍🏻

[@ChasingaPlate]

Hi Ranjani M! Chennai was amazing! Even though we only just left this morning we already want to return! Can't wait to get back! It sure was hot but we didn't find it too back actually. It was very humid though! Thanks very much for watching and we hope you enjoy the rest of our Indian content and the Chennai videos we have coming up. Cheers, Thomas 😀

The local shop there is called "Sundari Akka Kadai"... Sundari is her name, Akka means elder sister and Kadai translates to shop.. Go to the Marina and any local can guide you to that shop! You can also find more youtube videos about her shop..

[@CaptainKarma1972]

Chasing a Plate - Thomas & Sheena .. hoping to make a trip down to Chennai this December , then taking the train down through the South reaching Kanyakumari to visit the Vivekanada rock memorial ( off the southern most Tip of India ) . I don’t know if train attendants still come around selling the likes of sambar vadai And hot tea at your very train seat ( absolutely delicious ). im really glad you found these little “gems” of eating spots . One can tell they dish out the best only the locals know about . Perhaps to keep the tourists away :) lol ! Thanks again and please keep more of these great videos coming ! 🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿

[@ChasingaPlate]

Sounds like a brilliant itinerary CaptainKarma1972! No doubt you will enjoy many cups of chai and sanbar vadai on your train journeys. There's nothing like travelling by train in India is there? We spent about 2 months travelling this way about 6 years ago and my memories of that trip are so vivid. Hahahahaahah I hope they don't rue the day us tourists showed up! Hope you like the other videos we have coming up on the channel mate. Cheers, Sheena

[@tosht2515]

That was a mountain of rice indeed. 😳 When I know I'm going to eat all day, I always ask for half rice. Did this many times in Thailand with the street dishes. Got some looks and one cart lady who spoke perfect English said she had never had such a request ever. 😂 Awesome food tour, guys. Everything looked quite tasty. 👍

[@ChasingaPlate]

😂 you know what Tosh, that makes so much sense- why has this never crossed my mind before? I think it's because I'm a greedy guts!! That plate weighed a ton! Everything we ate in the video was great- Chennai has such an incredible food culture. Thanks for watching and commenting mate, so happy you enjoyed it. Cheers, Sheena 😄

[@tosht2515]

I have always been super weird about food waste. People claim this but I’m really a stickler. Easy to take leftovers home or to the office but not so while on the road. In CDMX I accidentally ordered five churros. As soon as they arrived I gave three to the folks next to me. In Portugal where just about everything comes with chips/fries I tried to explain my half request but the servings were always still huge. My Spanish must not be a good as I think. 😀

[@ChasingaPlate]

😂😂😂 I’m sure your Spanish is brilliant! We abhor food waste too and we 99.9% of the time finish everything we order. Often we’ll have big breaks between filming sections of a video and walk it off- means we get to do a bit of sightseeing at the same time! 😄😆

[@tosht2515]

😂 Yup. My Spanish is way better than my Portuguese. I'm glad you caught that. Watched this terrific video again and I'm still amazed at the seafood. That was a U.S. portion that's for sure. I know you know that the size of food and drink here in the states can be quite ridiculous especially at the thousands of chains and convenience restos.

[@ChasingaPlate]

😂😂😂😂 It sure was a U.S sized portion! I remember eating a meal once in San Francisco and only being able to finish a quarter of it 😳 Crazy!!! Thanks so much for watching Tosh- we fell in love with Chennai and its food so had an absolute blast filming the videos. Hope our enthusiasm for the place comes across in the videos and that you enjoy the other 3 we have coming up from here. Have a great weekend mate! Cheers, Sheena
