India’s Chinese Street Food!! God-Level Spice in Kolkata!!

[@AzYinNa]

In my opinion, i do love Sonny’s voiceover more because it’s sounded more enthusiastic. and plus, we all love sonny, that’s why we follow this channel aren’t we 🫣🤭🤭

[@TullyTeja1982]

Thank you for pointing it out. I love to listen reviews from his voice... Sooo authentic and from his heart.

[@peterreily1490]

Who doesn’t love bill? Bills great!

[@hollish196]

You took the words out of my mouth! This was wonderful instead of merely interesting. Sonny makes all the difference. Enthusiasm and intense interest.

[@randyschwaggins]

Ur 💯 right! When I first saw Sonny's channel (maybe 6 years ago) I didn't like it as much as the other food vloggers...Wiens, Mike Chen and Food Ranger. Maybe it was the editing or maybe it was that they had already established a video personality...with the 'WOW's and the bits of humour...i don't know. But as time as gone by...and it's been like this for over a year...while those other guys have become tired and repetitive, Mikey has gone from strength to strength! Not only is the editing of his videos top notch...as a personality he has become far far better than the others. He really understands food from a taste perspective - and that makes his commentary real in each video. I honestly think that Wiens has no idea about food at all...and Mike Chen just seems to go through the motions and say the same thing these days - no matter what he eats! I'll admit that Food Ranger seems to know more about food than the others but his personality is nowhere near Sonny's. I'm not being paid for these comments btw!!! But honestly though...Sonny has done an amazing job and it's been a real pleasure to see his evolution over the past years! ❤

[@Southernbredbread]

Nothing against the other voice over artists but Sonny is on another level and just kills it! His enthusiasm and personality you can hear through the narration.

Sonny’s voice over is so perfect for these Indian videos, I’m enjoying it so much more now

[@souvikdeb2523]

Calcutta street food in itself is by far the most cosmopolitan food in India's already cosmopolitan food scene. A wonderful blend of Bengali (the predominant taste), Chinese, Nepali/Tibetan, Armenian, English, Mughlai and various Indian influences, the food is extremely diverse and innovative. The Chinese influence is quite strong in Calcutta, probably because it has not one, but TWO Chinatowns. Also, the Chinese community here has assimilated with the local Bengali population to create the gem that we refer to as 'Indo-Chinese'.

[@Kathakathan11]

But not pan India food. So sad

[@souvikdeb2523]

@@Kathakathan11 There are many pan-Indian food options too (like Malayali, Goan, Tamil, Maharashtrian, North Indian etc). But I'm talking about 'fusion' between Indian and non-Indian cuisines. For example, 'Dolma' is a very popular dish that is common in Bengali households. It arrived with the Armenians, who in turn learned it from the Turks. Bengali households use pointed gourd (potol) and a fish filling to make dolma instead of the original Armenian/Turkish variant where they don't use pointed gourd (they use large peppers like Capsicum) and minced meat (usually lamb or beef).

I'm here for Sonny's voiceovers! There's no point in using the Best Ever Food Review Show branding without Sonny 😄

[@LordLOC]

Why? Why can't they branch out without Sonny's voice for videos like this? It's not like he's IN India for these videos after all. The community didn't give that lady who did the original voice over any chance whatsoever, which is weird.

[@revinaque1342]

@@LordLOC Because Best Ever Food Review Show is Sonny's brand. People come here for his style, his humor. If Sonny isn't part of the production, they may as well just call it something else

[@LordLOC]

[@LordLOC]

People complained that Sonny wasn't doing the voice over and they didn't want the woman who did it originally, which is pretty crap if you ask me.

[@Ghostbear2k]

It's funny... So far in the other videos we had vegetarian dishes (unless I missed something), which, as a vegetarian, I liked very much. India has some awesome vegetarian dishes and the cuisine ranks among my favorites. But as soon as Sonny joins, there's the meat. 😄 No judging here, just eat what you prefer .. I just found it funny.

[@mohamedyussef3483]

Dude. Best video on this new channel. Some people have the chemistry and some don’t. I hated how the other girl (and I’m sure she’s a very nice person) constantly used “mouthwatering”, and she just didn’t have the “it” factor.

[@nhtashu]

This is really a good business plan. You hire local content creators to send you food vlogs and you simply do a voice-over. You save money and time and the content creator learns and earns money which she/he might not be able to earn in her/his own channel as she/he doesn't have the reach that Sunny has. Win-win for both.

[@CaptKaus]

Kolkata has THE most diverse & tastiest flavous among all of INDIA. Proud to be a bengali.❤ Also, one thing that the chef did wrong was how he added the soy sauce. Always put soy sauce along the rim of the wok not directly into the food!!!!

Next time if you visit Kolkata for Indo-Chinese food please do Visit - Chinese food - Tangra - Beijing Restaurant / Kimling Restaurant / Big Boss Restaurant / Golden Joy Restaurant etc, Hatari Restaurant (Kamalgazi), Terreti Bazaar (early morning). There are some other place also. Cheap and best variety street food stalls near - Esplanade area, Dalhousie area - in front Reserve Bank of India - street food, Decars Lane - Chitto Babur dokan, Shyam Bazaar area etc. Lots and lots of street food stalls crops up each and every day.

[@srijitmajumder99]

​@@CunnybapistI guess ignorants remain ignorants, so I won't say much. I'll just say, these people of Kolkata are not Tibetians, but Hakka Chinese, an ethnically Chinese people, who migrated to India,settled in Kolkata during British Raj, and never left. Till date, they do not have Indian Aadhar cards, but live in India. They even refuse UPI payments as they aren't "Indian". These people are what constitutes the "Chinatown" of Kolkata. And also, Tibetian food is much different than Chinese, but I suppose you are that ignorant to even research it, simply because Tibetian food is much more suited to you and so you say Tibetian=Chinese. Because you cannot even imagine the Chinese foods available in Kolkata.
