🧳 NIKITA:   / nikita.vijaykumar   🇮🇳 KHILADI:   / khiladiny   🇮🇳 DESIGALLI:   / desigalli   New York City is arguably the food capital of the world and is home to dozens of Indian restaurants. Join me as I eat Indian food for 24 hours in the East Village of Manhattan, NYC! Joining is my friend Nikita, who’d be taking me to four amazing local spots, starting with Khiladi. 🇮🇳 KOLKATA CHAI CO.:   / kolkatachaico   🇮🇳 MALAI MARKE:   / malaimarkenewyork   🇮🇳 BAAR BAAR:   / baarbaarnyc   After visiting the kitchen, we had a masala dosa, malabar curry, pani puri, idli nuggets, stuffed naan with lamb and cheese, mango lassi, and masala lassi. The masala lassi tasted like pani. I loved the cilantro and ginger. Then, we jumped on the pani puri, which had a tropical feel to them and was tangy and mild. The stuffed naan with raita was incredible! I loved how fluffy it was and the amazing ground lamb and coriander. The idli nuggets had a nice crunch and spice. The sambar and coconut chutney were top notch! Next was a light paneer pulao mixed with a bit of raita. The masala dosa was thick and spicy and came with a sharp and sweet ginger jaggery chutney that I loved! Last was the malabar fish curry with rice. I loved the curry leaves! Next, we headed across the street to Desigalli, which sells Indian street food! They have a mini market selling snacks, pickles, spices, and sauces. We’d be getting their kathi roll, pani puri, and an Indian poutine! After visiting the kitchen, we ate outside, starting with some chai. Then, we jumped on the pani puri. Some contained mint chutney and others contained tamarind. Next was a crispy vegan kathi roll with Beyond Meat filling. I loved the onions and it tasted like minced meat! Next was a reddish maggi samosa. It was so unique with the noodles, peas, and vegetables inside! Then, we jumped on the desi poutine, which has chicken tikka masala gravy and cheese on top. It was fantastic! Then, we took a break from eating and walked around the area and found Kolkata Chai Company. There, Ayan made us an egg roll and oatmilk chai. The chai was amazing, and the egg roll was egg wrapped in a paratha with mint chutney and onions. Then, I tried the dirty chai, which adds filtered coffee! Then, we headed to Malai Marke Indian Cuisine. After visiting the kitchen, we ate outside on their terrace. Our spread included paneer tikka, Achari chicken, lachha paratha, garlic naan, mix veg curry, Kundapur chicken curry, lamb karahi, and chicken jalfrezi. The paneer tikka was crumbly, dense, and well-marinated. I loved the smoky Achari chicken with chilies and pickle. The lachha paratha was full of flaky layers and was outstanding with the mixed veg curry. The Kundapur chicken curry contained coconut, cream, mustard seeds, and curry leaves and reminded me of dishes I had in Kerala. I also couldn’t get enough of the chunky lamb karahi, which had a nice gravy and amazing vegetables. The chicken jalfrezi was spicy! Finally, we walked 10 minutes to Baar Baar and started with a citrusy drink called bagicha. Everything here was more upscale! First were the crispy and delicate dahi puri and the crispy cauliflower 65 with curd-rice mousse. The masala on it was excellent! The chicken ghee roast was made to look like a bird’s nest. I loved the green pea kulcha with goat cheese and truffles. With the paneer pinwheel gravy, it was amazing! The butter chicken was unreal, and the paneer pinwheels were unlike any paneer I’d ever had. Dessert was strawberry pavlova. I loved the strawberries, meringue, and kulfi in it! Where have you been?
