How to Eat at Indian Roadside Restaurants for Foreigners (Dhaba Tour)
Vložit

- When you visit India, you can eat at cheap roadside restaurants safely! I'll show you exactly how to order at a traditional Indian Dhaba (roadside restaurant) and how to judge whether the food is clean and safe to eat.
The Worst Tourist Trap in India (Hotel Gangaur) • The WORST Tourist Trap...
Dhabas all along the motorways in India provide the tastiest and freshest Indian food. You get homemade food and good Indian hospitality for much cheaper than the Dhabas designed only for foreign tourists.
I always stop there to eat when I'm road trips. I usually order Aloo Paratha (stuffed bread with potato), Chole (chickpeas), and Masala Chai (Indian milk tea). That all costs about ₹280 or $4.
To find a Dhaba, just use Google Maps and check the reviews.

What's your favourite Dhaba? I've always had the best experiences in the smaller non-branded Dhabas - rather than the big brands like Mannat and all the ones at Murthal. My most memorable was in Chhattisgarh eating with Chintamani Jaipuri czcams.com/video/OaiRDgBC1fo/video.html
Panjabi dhabhas are the best
I am not insulting but The Best part is When Foreigners pronounce Punjabi Dhaba as "Poonjabi Daba" 😀😂
Check out Mahadev Rajasthani Dhaba on Tumkur Road near Bangalore. It is the go to place for all Rajasthani truck drivers and is literally a road-side dhaba. The food here is really authentic and the hospitality is totally 'Rajasthani'. Feels like home! :) Would recommend to go with a Rajasthani friend. Location below:

Hi carl

Should have given them your chai recipe! Then Mr.Rock would approve 👌
hey, you again
Exactly what I was thinking as I watched this video back haha. Hope you're well mate.
Hey Luke , I know You From Karthik Surya.
Luke machane 😻😻😻 big fan from Kerala
@@stephin1612 LUKE Aliyante Fans here lmao
I’ve never understood people who stand behind someone who is recording and just awkwardly stare...
I'm guessing because it's outside the norm, if you take pictures of food here in the U.S. or make a vlog about it, nobody would really stare at the cam but in India, Pakistan, Nepal, it's considered a bit odd, people will wonder why you're taking pics of food & making vids instead of eating it lol
Just a sign of backwardness...no hurt feelings.
@@holycrusader3130 it isn't backwardness or third world country routine. It basically stems from the culture of keeping a watch on neighborhood for their well being. Yes privacy is compromised and to be frank the importance of privacy is being felt off late here and not taken so seriously. Anyways it will take time to catch up with a population of 1.3 billion plus.
@@braveheart4388 let me agree to disagree
@@cutepanda2910 No offence taken and nice try, but I've never even set foot in the U.S.
Love the dhabas!
Having flown to India almost every year for the past 20 years, I usually head straight from the airport to a dhaba on the expressway between Mumbai and Pune and have a spicy wada pau and a masala chai, only then does it feel like I've arrived!
I would add a few more tips about dhabas:
- avoid meat and paneer unless sure that they are fresh. As many simpler places suffer from power cuts and their fridges cut out, these foods can go off quickly and make you regret having eaten them.
- for a take away the standard lingo seems to be "parcel"
- in my experience, if you are on a road trip and not 100% sure about the cleanliness of a dhaba you have pulled into, no-body is ever insulted or will not allow you if you ask to see the kitchen for yourself to get a better idea of their hygiene standards.
Dhaba Dhaba Doo!
Great tips Pavi!
He wrote an essay on it
Over 700,000,000 people in India don’t have access to a toilet. Even if they do have a ‘hole in the ground’ toilet they don’t use toilet paper. They simply pour a little water over their left fingers and then go back to work preparing your food. Extreme caution needs to be used in India!

The increasing number of na's he use at the end of every phrase say's how Indian he has become😆
Adding "NA" at the end of the every sentence proves nothing but his struggle with the langauge. No Hindi speaking majority state add "Na" at the end of the sentence (except when required).
@@Nandan_Singh. i have heard a lot of hindi speaking Indians while speaking English do that💁♂️ kinda slang it is, I'm from Kerala so yahh, we don't speak hindi here
@@Sjr_freestyle Same in NorthEast India.
I stayed mostly in Maharashtra. There most of my Indian friends used "na" or "yaar" the the end of almost all sentences.

Everyone in the background: Staring at Karl as he talks in to the camera. xD
I wonder what they're talk about amongst each other
Vo Dekh angrezi (hey look a Caucasian)
Some would without reason abuse thinking he will not understand
Heather Rayy they are just curious because they dont see many foreigners doing vlogging 🙂
They are just curious. If you say hello they'll come to your
Table share food with you and give you a pleasant chit chat while having meal. Coz almot no foreigners visit dhabas, so it's a different/new experience for them and who knows they'll pay for your meal as well.
Love that you're always on the lookout for new places to eat!
I have seen you're comment on other channels also 1 year ago
@hana i subscribed to your channel way back , when will you post your new content ?

White homemade butter is from Buffalo🐃. Cow’s 🐄 butters is yellow. Welcome 🙏🏻
Correct👍 bro
Homemade butter is white, including cow's milk.
@@rishabmazumdar5635 He is talking about clarified butter (ghee) and I have noticed the difference between then cow s ghee is yellow whereas buffalo ghee is white...
@@rishabmazumdar5635 whereas if talk about that Makhan that will remain white only whether it's of cow or buffalo
@@AdityaSingh-wq7vl RIshab is right. Cow butter can be white. Often the colour of butter will depend on the diet of the cow and the type of cow.
Carotene is the pigment responsible for giving butter its natural yellow colouration. If a cattle's diet consists of carotene-rich sources, you get something closer to store-bought varieties of butter. If not, white is the natural colour. This is why vegetable shortening or lard is often white as well. Margarine in its pure form is white but is dyed to emulate the more familiar appearance of butter (the dye is not known to be detrimental health, although the trans fats in margarine are).
Subject : One more tip that will help you be more local(flexible) and explore cheap adequate lunch.
Hey rock...
Ask for Veg-NonVeg Thali. It has fixed price(around ₹100), mostly fixed menu, less spicy, more healthier(as it is order by daily passengers).
This would come handy when you are travelling alone as you couldn't complete every dish everytime you make customized order.
'Thali' system brings sufficient edible on your plate and you can even make make small changes (like order salad, lassi, gravy, desert/sweet, extra chapati etc etc etc).
Disclaimer: Sometimes you can be scammed by poor quality edibles. So the trick is to ask the manager or staff to name the dishes that are most commonly ordered. Having lunch is one thing.. Digesting those is another.
Most welcome,
Another Indian.
I love how Karl is so sure that a tourist will go on a roadtrip by themselves on Indian roads😂
They do !😘
@@laxusclashempire5645 It's quite rare. in 99% of situations, they usually just hop on busses or trains with guided tours.

Dry
I love the roadside dhabas but I have to say, I make better aloo parathas. My Haryanvi mother in law taught me well 😊
Good for you. Mothers make the best parathas
I love Karl's passion and enthusiasm for his reviews and how immersed he is with the culture in India.
What is nostalgic about your vlogs is i am in New Zealand and you are in India
Karl giving me tips,
Me: Nahi chahiye ji.
When he opened his mask, I didn't expect to see a shaved Karl 😂 This is the first time I've seen him so clean 😂😂
I didn't noticed, but thinking in my head he is looking fresh and young.
He looked like that when he 1st came to India.

Each of your videos are awesome!!
Love your content ❤️❤️🥰

You keep doing things in such a way that i cant even imagine. ☺️ Every video you make has a meaning.👍
Love you Karl bro, i feel relaxed after watching your videos and it makes my day. It feels like I am travelling with you.
Keep making such awesome videos.
Theres always people behind literally staring at you when your recording. Do you ever feel uncomfortable with that?
Not really Bro, you get used to it 😅
even we indians get stared at abroad......i was in Serbia last week and they were kinda fascinated....
Love the videos ! Im from canada
Such a culture shock i love it
Great advice Karl - Thank you. 🙏
Next time I leave the UK to visit india am going to try some of those places. 👍
Thanks carl for helping everyone understand india much more you have helped me alot
I'm missing all of this, when I used to go on road trips with my family and have lunch or snacks in Dhabas... 😭
Waiter- Dry Or Gravy?
KARL- YES!
I'm enjoying your videos so much! I live in Bahrain and here they have a huge Indian community so that's how I first got in touch with Indian cuisine and culture but so far didn't have the chance to travel and visit India. Thanks for all the useful tips they will come handy once I get the chance to come and visit my friends which is definitely on my list.
This looks lovely, love your videos Karl👍
I am traveling to Goa on the 16th thanks for the tips
Thank you so much Karl for sharing your experiences with us. The same scam happened with me in Cairo. The restaurant didn't provided the menu with prices. Keep up the good work Karl.
Eventually I came across ur channel and man u do make useful vlogs and u just earned a sub .
I love your good advice! I think many people do not get an authentic experience on holiday because they are scared or embarrassed to be a bit adventurous! I always have notes with me on basic phrases, hello, please, thank you, where is the bathroom etc for every country I go to but nine times out of ten I don’t need them because, even in the more local small eateries someone will understand what I need. And if you can manage a small conversation in their language the smiles you receive are priceless. Eating out abroad can be daunting but if I ever have the chance to come to India I will have your videos front and centre on my phone!

Wait, they have Baskin Robbins in India? I had no idea! The more you know
Yess sirr..u will definitely find a Baskin Robbins in a mall..
Not just baskin robbins, almost any brand you name it. But anyway we stick to Amul, Mother Dairy etc. than baskin robbins.
You can also find Swensens in some of the bigger cities
Many foreign brands in India
Baskin n robbins is shit tbh very overrated , local indian ice cream shops make better ice creams then them

Imagine hr starts eating with his mask still on his face 😂
Rs.60 for one allo pratha in dhaba is costly. Shold be rs. 40😀
40rs too damn expensive 😂
I think 50 or 40 is ok because this dhaba is looking good and clean, not like some small dhaba selling in rs. 20
Great video bro. 👌
I luvv ur videos bro💖
I've learnt to be more indian because of you. And I'm from Mumbai India. You're literally more indian than me man!
Karl I think you should replace the valve mask with something else , it's not safe
He is immune to the virus now
Itachi Uchiha no he is not immune to it. Where do you see the science to that. There are many people that have had it more the once. You might be immune for a couple month they say and the you are like everyone else.
Itachi Uchiha there are multiple strains of the virus which result in other infections
Valve mask is as safe as other n95 mask.
Why they are not recommended is because they are not able to prevent transmission to other people, but for the person who is wearing them is 100% safe.
Advice : always read/research about a thing before advicing others, this sometimes shows you as a fool.
