Love Indian food too, but be careful if ever go there. The rape rate is pretty high, and the police and the government don't do much about it. A lot of men think if a girl walks outside at night or dressed revealingly they're asking to get raped. A lot of them don't really respect women. A lot of tourists get raped there too. If you ever go, go with a group of people or tough looking guys. Indians in India are not the same as the ones in Canada. I'm Canadian and I know

Indian food is my favorite and I have been watching many food travel vlogs (Trevor James, Mark Weins) but believe me, Mike’s version is the BEST! It’s the first time, the food looked soo tempting, I would love to eat... If u watch the Trevor James’ version of Kolkata food tour..u would be more distracted by the unhygienic dirty places.. I don’t know why..but the food looked so unhealthy and unhygienic in their videos..whereas mikey’s version looks soo appealing..mouth watering..and not so unhealthy😂

[@asamvav]

Yes I agree, in kolkata we have a lot of good food, but we are lacking in food from the north east. May be it's the scarcity of the traditional ingredients. You can get some asamese food in places. But nothing more. If someone opens a traditional North Eastern food joint at mid range prices, he will be rolling in money in no time.

Potato is LUV in Biriyani. You are a true Bengali. Luchi , kosha Mangsho , Hilsha (Fish of Heaven) are the three corner stone of Benagali Culture.

[@RadhikaVasudevanadv]

Ankan Das lol... potato in a biriyani is blasphmy! 😋

[@Abrox12345]

Radhika Vasudevan The point of putting one whole potato in there as opposed to smaller pieces is that it acts as a carrier for some of the stronger flavours. Potatoes are starchy and as the rice cooks, it steams inside the rice, releasing the starch and absorbing the flavour instead of letting it disperse unevenly in the rice (which does not naturally absorb flavour as much as potatoes do.) The only reason any sane human being would reject that perfectly balanced flavour bomb is if they: a) Have severely damaged tastebuds. Or b) Hasn't tried Kolkata dum biriyani yet. If potatoes in biriyani is "blasphemy" then I happily consider myself to be a sinner. 😈

[@FishForThought]

Mike... Or anyone else who knows. How do you keep so thin (and in shape) when you are eating so much? How much exercise do you do? and are you always finding places to work out (gyms and stuff) whenever you travel? Thanks!

[@MissingRaptor]

He works out a lot! The videos are in his Mikey Chen KZbin channel where he documents the parts of the trip that aren't just eating. Well worth watching :)

Come to Tamil nadu to experience the holistic experience of leaf meals and filter coffee

[@sayantansaha9047]

Eating on banana leaf is really a great way to use natural resources. In bengal ,we also have tradition to eat on banana leaf but sadly it's getting excluded with the extreme demand pressure from plastic market! I have gone to Tamil nadu and loved the cuisine.

SPECS TUBE yup he should visit south India

[@srinjoykumarmitra1698]

@@sayantansaha9047 In Bengal, we actually use Shal(Shorea robusta) leaves to eat on them.

I wasn't aware at all that noodles are in some Indian food. You learn something new everyday.

[@FoodforThought12345678dsds]

wow, you must have really advanced computer, what brand is it?

[@numzandnaff]

Lol!

[@drarkagensurg]

The quantity of that Awadhi Handi Biriyani is actually for two people. When I went to Oudh for the first time, I ordered Galauti kebabs and Handi Biriyani. It was completely worth it. Never ate mutton that much tender.

[@noel79898]

Bro, the adjectives you use to describe the food (with the passion driving it), is truly impressive; you are a culinary poet...

[@ayanfeelingood]

Your last stunt was HILARIOUS! Magical indeed, just magnificent... gotta try that some time when I'm in that city 👍
