Absolutely dying with laughter at the “I took my mum here, dad here, dates here” rap megamix 😂😂😂😂😂
same xD
Yeah, he is too gay...
Jan was such a pleasure to watch! Would love more features with him!
I`m really happy you guys doing more of London, a lot of people been sayin that the food in the UK and London is bad and I always direct them to your videos food guides of London, one of most eclectic and diverse cities for food in the world. And yes, Indian tastes better in London
Do people say that? I know the stereotype of British food being bad, but don't think people say that we don't have good food, it's just that they're often from or inspired by other nationalities
I think people are saying British/English food are bad NOT food in the UK are bad. I don't agree on the statement, but British/English food are not amazing in central London when you have high business rates and rent to pay and some are pretty touristy, fish and chips at Leicester Square any one?
Best city Is Birmingham for curry
I think they're talking about the typical "beige" British food, not the actual food and restaurant quality that you can get in London. I'm from NYC and work in London and I think London has way more variety and better quality food than NYC. Also, London has tons of markets, higher quality grocery stores, butchers, fish mongers, bakeries etc. We barely have any markets at all in NYC and our grocery stores are garbage compared to London. I put London at the same level of the large Asian cities in terms of food quality and diversity of ethnic cuisines.
@@spursp2321 lol, mate it’s Bradford. The curry capital for a reason.
Rogue shout but would love to see Indonesian cuisine done next! It's so underrated, especially in the UK. Could be a good little challenge to find a few places in London
So glad I have notifications on! Love the videos always informative and have that feel good factor
This is such a brilliant concept! It truly personifies what London's food culture is all about - a melting pot of cultures, cuisines, textures and flavours. It's just one of the many reasons as to why I adore London!
Lads, gotta be Lebanese food next👌🏾 Been going to a few different spots and then recommending them to mates after as they have no clue where's good to go! Brilliant episode as always🙌🏾
Where would you recommend for Lebanese in London? I was also thinking of suggesting just just because I also don't know 😅
@@DjokovicIsOurLordAndSaviourLebaneats
Thank you this was truly most amazing reviews, mouth is watering going to London this summer for the first time and we are beyond excited. So well done. New follower👍🙏
Love this channel... top work lads, good to see you back 👍
loved the video, JANAK you Rocked. Well done! Need to get back for a visit
Great video guys! Im going to london this fall and i have so many restaurants i wanna try out because of you!!
Wonderful stuff again lads! Love me some Indian cuisine cant wait for the next vid! On a side note who was your favourite performance at Glasto? Sam Fender looked mad as!!
Felt like your Cousin just came home from London and telling the family about his Indian food hunting with British twist. Sending Love 💕 and Regards from North Bengal, India. Keep it up Topjaw ✨ and Come visit NorthEast someday.....
Love the curry houses on Brick Lane. Some really amazing food. We've eaten in probably a dozen or more over the years of our holidays in London. Sheba is one of the best, I agree.
As for the next cuisine to try/feature, I agree with Turkish. Our favourite Turkish place went out of business this year and we need a new option. Cheers!
Great video guys. Food looks amazing.
Amazing content as usual!
Love this! Great video guys.
Thanks guys!
THANK YOU Topjaw for your Manchester and Liverpool recos… just went to both places and ate at the venues you recommended. So amazing!😋😋
That's awesome - where did you visit?
@@topjaw we loved Mackie Mayor food hall and Duke Street food market. We even tried scouse at Maggie Mays!
But our absolute FAVOURITE thing was brunch at Federal. AMAZING! We are Americans who live in both Texas and Cheltenham Gloucestershire. Let me know if you ever decide to do a Topjaw edition in Cheltenham! 😂
Great vid! Love Jan's energy. Next up: London's TOP Japanese foods!
Great show! Fantastic day out! I would have to starve for 2 or 3 days after that! Happy New Year!
FAVOURITE GUEST PRESENTER SO FAR !!
So glad to see Gymkhana on here, for my mind the best Indian eating experience in the UK.
Another great one lads, will be trying those, SUGGESTION FOR LONDON THAI RESTARAUNTS PLS, thanks
Great stuff guys! Keep it up 😉🤙
Btw we just dropped our London 2022 vlog and we stood right on that corner on Brick Lane! ☺️ great minds 😉 music volume is back on point again guys, well done!
Love this series so much !!!!!
Lil' request for Lisbon in 48 hours !?!
Cheers
Jan is fab!
Turkish in Croydon maybe...you both do such a great job. Love your videos!
Can I say- this guy is one the best cohosts on this channel! Definitely bring him back!
Loved this episode, with curry being close to my heart.
Was at Kricket a couple of months ago for Father’s Day. Can confirm it is delicious 🙌🏻
Hello from New Zealand! So stoked you guys are doing a lot of London vids because I'll be over at Christmas time and am building my list of restaurants to visit based off your vids!
Kia Ora, I personally wouldn't eat authentic Indian food in Central London (I have lots of Indian and British Indian friends), you can definitely find trendy and innovative food in Central London, but if you after authentic you have to go outside "central" London. Go to Southall and Wembley, where the big Indian communities live. I am from NZ as well and been living in London for nearly 15 years. I go to Central London for Chinese and drinking more than Indian food. The default one to go is Dishoom, try it out but you will queue for a few hours. Have a safe trip
@@phillipwong3754 Kia Ora and thanks for letting me know! Will take that into consideration:)
I’m not sure that’s the best advice. Dishoom is great but it is a chain restaurant. Truly Authentic Indian food can be found in India but London has a rich Indian culture in many parts of of the city and we’re lucky to have that. Certainly don’t have to venture out of town!
@@topjaw but what's wrong with chain store? Nobu is a chain and the Big Mumma group is a chain (and you have profiled). Dishoom was started with Indian founders (I have friends that knows one of them) as a concept which obviously became very successful to attract investment which turns in to a selective chain. I am not advising OP to go to Wagamama or Pizza Express which is a "chain" most people should avoid unless they have a family with children or simply don't know what Asian food should taste like.
I am not Indian, but all my Indian friends had told me to avoid Indian in central London if possible. I am just listening to their advice as they go to Dishoom themselves.
@@topjaw Well I'm a fellow foodie anyway so I'm happy to try whatever and from the looks of it Gymkhana, Sheba and Kricket are amazing!
Definitely trying these restaurants soon! I was going to recommend Turkish also. Perhaps show the viewers the cuisine is not just doner kebabs?
Yes to Turkish food!!!
Yes they also do shish kebabs
Fabulous editing chaps, the songs were great, would have liked to see more restraints though, I don’t think 3 is enough. I think it works better for the show if your doing a proper crawl and progressively getting more jolly. This felt a bit more civilised and I want fun, high energy silliness. Turkish is a great shout, best donner kebab in london please x
P.S. there is next level Indian Restraunt in kingly court featured on chefs table
Jan is amazing, its nice to have someone British born but still introduce their own family style food. Love it!
Thank you! 👌🏻🤩
This made me feel I should venture to London more. Especially to visit gmykhana.
Caribbean - Jamaican (Troy Bar), Trinidadian (Roti Joupa), French Guadeloupe (Bokit La), Guyanese (Kaieteur Kitchen Original).
Loved this video! How about a tour of Persian or Jamaican food?
Such a brilliant review! Hilarious too - Get Jan on again!!!!!😂
My best friends birthday meal was at Kricket, service was amazing and we couldn't pick a favourite dish because it was all so good! Cocktails bang too!
Ah that's so great to hear Joshua - my favvvvv spot in London i think 😊 Glad you guys enoyed! Will
Recommend Sheba, Great selection of Curries and grills
banging as always
Really enjoyed this one, like your friend, very knowledgeable. Like the show when you dont drink quite as much, on the show. Drink after. Like the cocktails and beers, just not you sloshed. Keep up the good work.
Great vid! Would love to see a Mexican food guide in London.
Love your vids! Which is the best fish and chips in London!? Not thinking about budget, just the best best very best fish and chips!
A huge fan from Tokyo! Please go to best Gyros in London next time! Love you guys!
Jan's a natural!
You guys have to come do an episode in Montreal, Canada!!!
Love the rap/remix at 1:23
you guys were shooting next to us at oxomoco sunday ! wish i would have caught you ! hope you enjoyed le industry! that pizza and soft serve is ridiculous
Yes to Turkish!
Like someone else commented, it’s way more than a dirty doner kebab. The pide and lahmacun, the stews, the soups, the meats, the salads etc.. just everything!
Happy to recommend a mixture of places!
Thank you for the recos guys. They all look delicious! Btw, Jesse are you going blond to ginger the older you get!? Sorry just something I thought I noticed by passing in one of the frames.
OMG - was in London in April/May, now I need to go back to have more Indian food - seriously craving Gymkhana. Oh, how much more for the sunglasses to have the models included? ;)
Huge fan! Would love to see you do Filipino food and maybe see you try a boodle fight 😊
Turkish cuisine definitely! Would love to see where you recommend for the best Turkish eggs
I been to Sheba once I guess in brick lane that was with my office party gotta say there food is delicious I tried the bengle lamb shank too and it was the best I had. Really nice service and decent price 👌 I'm definitely going to try that again soon after seeing you visit Sheba 😀 thank you.
Babur in Honor Oak. Superb and well worth the trip.
A huge fan here from The Philippines! Try out more Asian restaurants, please! When you get the chance, have a taste of our famous Chicken Adobo.
not loads of great filipino places in London that i have found :( Romulo, kasa and kin, Rapsa are in my list, if you have others... do let me know as it's hard to get good modern filipino food
Try Scandinavian food next. Or just Swedish because it’s the best. Reindeer and meatballs 🤪
Hey guys, love your videos.
Try some korean🇰🇷 cuisine places next please! 😊🙏
Gymkhana Club is really excellent. I actually just visited the ‘real’, original, Gymkhana Club in New Delhi, which is still a working sporting and dinning club open since the colonial times.
Love your stuff... Have you guys thort about setting up your own class? Love are vids what to create content and edit like Will... Then here you go!
I can pay with a trip to Malaysia 😁
That is some really unique Indian food, I wish I had seen this before I went to London last month. Next time!
Where you from
Khana means block or square. Like you call a plot a block or sqaure....
So gym khana is a gymnasium clubs built by britsh in india. And it is social clubs. The life of british are spend around these clubs. Usually locals are not allowed. It has from wedding clubs ti gyms to bars go dining rooms etc.
I mean since y’all tried Indian might as well have a go at their neighbor’s place. SRI LANKA 🇱🇰 Mind-blowing flavors 🤤🤯
New tiktok song now.... "I brought my mom her, I brought my dad here, I brought my dates here I brought my mates here" lol
‘Around the World with 80 Baes’ is such a good titles 🔥
never been but can't wait to visit LDN
Loved the little rap edit 🤣🎶
I would highly recommend Peruvian food 👌🏾
Can you guys do chapters please? 😁🙏🏼
Sheba Is definitely best in Bricklane. Cheers guys
❤Your channel is literally my comfort place. You make me so happy. Love you❤😁❤Visit nature make themselves aware of various environments including life through actual experience work in the sun play get hungry and eat sleep well… I believe that a motivated and lovely look comes from this positive cycle.
Lovely stuff. Will defo check these places out have been meaning to get to Gymkhana for ages! My 3 fav spots to add to the mix 1) Bombay Bustle (Virat Kholi was eating next to me the other day so you know it comes highly recommended!) 2) Brigadiers (unreal mixxy and show sport) 3) Blue Ginger in Harrow (best chilli paneer in ldn) - enjoy!
Rajdoot in hamstead should be on this list, they give free baileys if you review them. It is seriously a very good restaurant
Great job, guys! Chinese food next?
Whyyy did I watch this? I'm gonna be obsessing over Indian food for the next few days and I just had it last weekend! 😂
I loved the jiggle jiggle😆
Absolutely love this video!! Who doesn't love a decent curry!?! Jesse love your passion and enthusiasm for food! Brilliant presenting style and Will..such a well put together professional video! Jan... brilliant rapping! Thank you for introducing us to some great restaurant recommendations...particularly for brick Lane. I get overwhelmed with the choice in brick Lane so great to narrow it down!
Lamb chops here I come! How about looking at polish cuisine? I went to krakow and had the most delicious perogi!! I challenge you guys to find top polish cuisine!
Why would anyone British eat some shite from a East European country?
You need to go to Brigadiers for the Chicken Wings and Kid Goat curry. 🙌🏽
You really need to come to Bradford, the curry capital. There’s many niche restaurants, and I’ll happily take your around them all.
I’ll think you’ll find Birmingham is THE curry capital.
Such an amazing range of Indian restraunts and dishes! The food looks delicious~😋 It would be fab if you could find authetic Singaporean food or Malaysian food 😄 Also to try restraunts/cafes from different price points? (Cheap, average and expensive)
Affordable, mates, mum 🎵 let's get it ! 😄
The Brilliant, Southall being overlooked here IMO. Can't help but think it's because it's not in the "trendy" part of town.
Jan is a proper Legend
Birmingham / west mids is the one for a TOP curry. 💪😎🤜👍
Finally, the most stylish gents on CZcams have visited/revisited my part of the world 😂
what is the song at the end?
How is the Persian food scene in London?
never found another Janak before :O
Should have done a Birmingham special on this!
Dim Sum places please 🙌🏽🙌🏽
Would love to see a video on Thai or Vietnamese cuisine
Indonesian, Egyptian, Malagasy :)
Can you do Palma!?
Sheba is really good, tasty food
“Sizzling like Kylie Minogue in the 80s”. 😂😂😂😂
Hey my friend, all these dishes have Iranian roots, even the names of some of them are Persian! Biryani, kebab, etc. You must experience Iranian food.
Indian Biryani and Iranian biryani is not comparable, I had Iranian biryani , it no match to the Indian ones.
Indian Biryani is the real deal
@@abhishekdarjee7069 I mentioned Biryani as an example. Certainly, Isfahan Beryoni is two different foods from Indian Biryani, but this does not mean that we can deny the deep influence of Indian cooking on Iranian cuisine, what has made Iranian cooking style unknown is the political sanctions and problems created by the Iranian government, This is why the people of the world enjoyed the wonderful Iranian food.
Cheeky q- in your shorts you ask fav burger and fav pizza, but not fav curry or fav Asian food?
I really enjoy the videos. I would suggest Japanese and Mediterranean cuisine.
I would also love to see the best coffee shops and even some of the most unique and popular restaurants in London
