I love that there's a grandma in the kitchen making momos. Just like every good Chinese restaurant which has one who makes the potstickers! These places would be lost without them.

[@FoodwithChetna]

exactly

[@idanceforpennies281]

That's a great conversation with the owner. I think I could listen to her for hours, and a well deserved success for the restaurant too.

[@FoodwithChetna]

yes!

[@shehnaazsheikhpierre9886]

The name "Darjeeling Express" itself has such good Vibrations. The Chef/Owner's interview was so Heartwarming.. The food oooh.. You are so lucky to be doing what you love + sharing it wd all of us. I thoroughly enjoyed this one.. stay Blessed Dear Chetna..

[@FoodwithChetna]

thank you so much ❤️

[@Nicolaspurr]

Really like Asma Khan and the work she's doing with women in her restaurant and to champion her model of how to create a professional kitchen that's supportive and empoowering. And her food is terrific too.

[@FoodwithChetna]

👍🏼

[@MrNigara]

Thank you thank you and thank you for giving us such an experienced, meticuolus and plenty of impressions review of those indian restaurants in London. I have been many times there but NEVER with such a great advice. I am saving your list for my next visit! I will need some time!!!

[@FoodwithChetna]

It's my pleasure

[@PradeepRaajkumar1981]

FEMALE Kitchen its more than that to say... Motherly KITCHEN ... Innovative and WOW .. No words .. Dedicated and passion.. AMBIANCE.. !!!! Lovely...

[@dishavirk6484]

Every time, I see a square-sized parantha and I’m transported back to my cherished childhood❤ and I’m sold. Also, Asma was featured in the last season of Top Chef too. Her thali looked delectable to say the least💛

[@FoodwithChetna]

The food was delicious

[@secretforreddit]

Ooh, I've definitely heard amazing things about this restaurant! Thank you for making a review!

[@FoodwithChetna]

It's so good!

[@ayeshas.3727]

I went to Darjeeling in London and 300% agree with you on the methi chicken curry, it was phenomenal.

[@FoodwithChetna]

👍🏼

[@SunnyBlueSkyDay]

This was quite a lovely experience, thank you for sharing!

[@FoodwithChetna]

Thanks

[@therestaurantguru1961]

Great Video This place has had tremendous publicity over the years. Bravo, Asma Khan for doing things her own way. The Restaurant is a very personal journey and one that I really want to take. I did in fact try to have a meal at DE in its previous incarnation at Kingsly Court, unfortunately they were crazy busy and possibly short-staffed so I took a rain check. The quality of your review is so good, we will be going back to try it out for lunch. All the best

[@user-uo7jk9lv1k]

Hi, Miss Chetna, you look gorgeuos. Your presentation is so impressive. You somewhat look like Hellen. It is purely my personal opinion, if you dont mind. I am very happy to watch all your videos. Eagerly waiting for new episodes. A new subscriber from India😊.

[@bobsamchuck]

[@FoodwithChetna]

[@nehakate9233]

[@virginiaf.5764]

Chetna, can you please describe what looked like a burger on a bun? What was that?

[@FoodwithChetna]

vada pav

[@mrfroopy]

I love this series. I am not sure if you consider Sri Lankan Indian or Not.. but my sister just went to Hoppers and was blown away. Are you gonna include that in this series?

[@FoodwithChetna]

I have been to hoppers and love it but Srilankan food is not Indian food and vice versa 😂

[@mrfroopy]

@@FoodwithChetna but they also have south Indian dishes, no?

[@walksthroughlife900]

​@mrfroopy Sri Lankan here, and while a lot of the ingredients are shared our cuisine is quite different. More a combo of Thai and South Indian. I'm not sure if hoppers is authentic though, I've not been and I know a lot of the team is Indian

[@parvathyr6626]

Hi Chetna, please do a review on Govinda's Pure Veg Restaurant, London:)

[@FoodwithChetna]

👍🏼

[@tuxedoneko9837]

I will definitely visit this restaurant in a few weeks time when i will be in London 😋😋😋 Mehti is my fave ☺️

[@FoodwithChetna]

Great 👍

[@turkeysandwich001]

I am trying to reconcile the point when Asma said life is meant to be difficult and hard work. Then goes on to say, to tip and be nice to staff as “it’s not easy” 😢! What??

[@susannehunter4017]

He didn't say it was fun to suffer, he simply acknowledged the reality of it in this life He said the great thing is to learn from it and be proud you came through stronger. That's "what".

[@psammiad]

Personally I think Dishoom is massively overrated, Darjeeling Express is much better.

[@FoodwithChetna]

👍🏼

[@koplfc1195]

serving beef in indian menu 😂

[@FoodwithChetna]

[@sm8315]

India is the second highest exporter of beef worldwide
