A lot of truffle vendors have that vibe, probably because they’re carrying around possibly tens to hundreds of thousands of $ of product at any given time. And YES, most of them are packing heat for real.
As a indian, there was never anything in india called "curry" It's just made up word by britishers What we have is gravy(thicker version of soup) or broth(liquid version of soup) containing spices,chilly powder, turmeric,etc
Incredible gem in the already top notch Chicago food scene. Love how they honor Indian flavors with their unique flare. Eaten here twice and been highly impressed each time. Go team Indienne!!
The harmony & respect among the team is amazing. The guy selling truffles seems like he's doing it for the Italian mafia. I can't wait to check this place out.
When I used to live by this location, it was a very meh bar. And then it closed and the property sat empty through the pandemic. Crazy to see that there's a Michelin-starred restaurant there now!
Hahahahaha that place started out BAD. This is not the same case... There are some kitchens that have a LOT of screaming... But most professional kitchens don't... And this one particularly is a Michelin star restaurant so... Better not hear any screams in the dining area lol!
Love it, the most malayalee crew ever haha even down to the wiping cloth on chefs belt, the Thorthu lined with gold/other colours. Great to see these guys getting some shine ❤
We have been meaning to go there, but have not gotten there yet. I’m looking at the staff and their level of preparation and care and how they do everything. It’s no wonder they have a Michelin star.
I have the feeling that most of these fine dining restaurants end up being the same: American attempt at French cuisine. Some use a few different ingredients, like this one, but in the end all is sous-vide, scallops, caviar, truffles, etc...
I think Indian attempt at French cuisine would be more accurate no? Or fusion, whatever is the more appropriate wording. Imo it's the main issue I have with a lot of "fine dining" and or michelin star restaurants, it's primarily french style cuisine. I think it's very unfortunate that the michelin star has so much power as it does cause it feels like it attempts to homogenise all manners of cooking-cultures rather than embrace the differences.
@@muntjunk-plk3171 I am trying to understand - why an Indian restaurant is named in French on an English speaking country ? My guess is the French name is just to get the Michelin star, which concludes that the food won't be authentic Indian if they are ready to name the Indian restaurant in French
@@sourabhchikode575 French sounds more 'elegant' in English, that's why a lot of upscale places have French or French-sounding names. It works the same way in India, where English names are 'posher' sounding than native names. Now that English-named places are becoming more affordable to the middle classes, you see French and Italian names popping up more for expensive restaurants.
@@sekharapramod7819 that's what I already replied - if they are naming a place completely inconsistent of it's actual roots/meaning, then what else compromises/changes are made to the food in it. By the way- English named restaurants in India are most of the time famous for their ambiance, and not for their authenticity. Authentic traditional tasty Indian food is still made in India at Indian named restaurants.
I ate at Indienne on a whim the month before Michelin announced its star. Had reservations at a Jose Andres joint but place closed for the night due to a plumbing issue. Indienne happened to be in walking distance and someone dropped out when I called them up.
Wait is it? As in small or large? How many people do they seat? I don’t know anything about Michelin star service, so idk how many servers they have on each night and if they even have sections or one table per server that rotates 2 or 3 times per service… …I’m imagining all of the cooks are full time, which is why I ask about the servers specifically. I’m sure this kitchen could have like 8-10 total staff, but I have no clue about the rest of the service they offer there (or at any Michelin star restaurant tbh) 🤔
As someone with no experience in the food service industry, it seems like these chefs have 12+ hour shifts. Do they have longer breaks in between? Or more off days than other jobs? Otherwise this seems like a kind of stress you cant do for long...
I have seen many in restaurant business saying that this is one of the most stressful job and they are stressed most of the time. They love cooking but running a kitchen in a restaurant is stressful
I am going to eat here by the end of the year, I have been looking for high in Indian cuisine. Indian cuisine is fantastic and one would think be would be everywhere like Japanese/Sushi, Korean, Middle eastern.
Yes, and the Michelin Star concept was originally created to get people in America to drive more (thereby increasing the wear and tear of their tyres). And now it's the Holy Grail of restaurant awards.
Do they modify their base recipe for lactose intolerant people? So everyone will be eating sea bass which were done without butter because there is one lactose intolerant guy eating today? This could make a huge difference in final dish.
He was cutting the mussels and had a hand-shake with the Truffle guy and selecting them without washing his hand. I would have expected him to wash and dry his hand. May be I am wrong and is edited in this video.
He explained why in the video. Sometimes with ingredients it’s more about the execution and plating, and as long as michelin inspectors understand that you don’t have to.
Two things to note there; cutting boards legally have to be colour coded, and it's kind of hard to have a colourful wooden cutting board, and plastic cutting boards are much easier to clean and are safer bacteria-wise.
The truffle guy's showing his stash like someone showcasing premium narcotics 😄 Beautiful showcase of Indian food. Keep it coming.
I was thinking the exact same thing! Did he get them legally!
A lot of truffle vendors have that vibe, probably because they’re carrying around possibly tens to hundreds of thousands of $ of product at any given time. And YES, most of them are packing heat for real.
He should get a trench coat and flash those puppies.
Oh that boi definitely sells magic mushrooms hahahaha
@@OB-LA exactly
The truffle guy is so dressed like a drug dealer lol
And he talks like he’s dealing drugs too 😂
Bro he's also a drug seller
Parts of the truffle trade are in fact controlled by the Italian mafia.
These guys are always packing too cause truffles are expensive af

Thank you for showcasing Indian Food and what it has to offer other than curry and tikka and naan breads
Curry and tikka and naan are all great but I do enjoy seeing a wider variety of Indian food!
No it doesn't
What exactly is Indian about whatever they showcased in this video tho?
I don´t see almost anything Indian in this food; is more French cuisine with some Indian ingredients (and truffles and caviar are not of those)
As a indian, there was never anything in india called "curry"
It's just made up word by britishers
What we have is gravy(thicker version of soup) or broth(liquid version of soup) containing spices,chilly powder, turmeric,etc

BEHIND!!!
Indian food is my favorite, it was cool to see this different “elevated” take. Will definitely need to try it out next time I’m in Chicago
This is not Indian food
@@arcadium8725yes it is...
I’m eating here for the first time next Friday, so this is perfect timing! Can’t wait!
How was the taste?
Yeah how was it?
@@richardlobo88 Its not worth it
@@grendale87465 you been there ?
You sure you wanna go there? Not concerned about hygiene? I mean its an Indian restaurant
Truffel guy has a bag truffles in famous indian towel design !!
that's his jhola
@@atharvakpatil Not the jhola😂
The team board is so wholesome
LOVE Indienne, went this year for my birthday!!
9:23 bro is onto something.
😂😂😂
Someone needs to make a sketch about "the truffle guy" in every one of these videos
These are the best videos. Love to see the behind the scenes at restaurants.
Akshay and Sonu definitely got high at noon xD
I just went to Indienne and it was incredible! ❤
Love it, the most malayalee crew ever haha even down to the wiping cloth on chefs belt, the Thorthu lined with gold/other colours. Great to see these guys getting some shine ❤
I went there on a first date! Very wonderful and interesting experience. It was my first time having Indianish food😂
We have been meaning to go there, but have not gotten there yet. I’m looking at the staff and their level of preparation and care and how they do everything. It’s no wonder they have a Michelin star.
Nice to see Dipinder Goel being so humble and cooking
Beautiful food. I want everything. Completely deserving of the Michelin stars.

@@NomSauce I was speaking in general in the first part of my comment. Yeah, this looks like an Indian attempt at French cuisine.
Bro's Indian restaurant name is 'Indienne' - which is French word for Indian 😅
Indian cuisine with French haute-cuisine technique. It’s Michelin starred. Not sure what’s hard to understand about that
Not his restaurant

Absolutely beautiful. They're elevating the indian cusine in the most exquisite way!
also that girl with the specs and boy-cut was cute! 😅
Indienne is indian in french
No need to state the obvious 🙄 If it was Japanese for Indian then I’d understand
No shiiiii genius
Went here end of last year and it was the greatest meal of my life.
wow this guy does not mess around, love these vids.
Need a recommendation for a coconut oil that "Slaps" ASAP. not satire.
Costco's Kirkland brand is great.
Use coconad (very kerala-esque brand)
Interesting as the restaurant has a lot of South Indian specifically Kerala influence in their menu choices
As a north Indian, I see that as an absolute win. I am too tired of seeing the same tikka masala dishes and naans.
Restaurant has its own R&D Department 😂
its true, in Europe many restaurants have their R&D
The child’s favorite Christmas gift was the large box her father’s lawnmower came in.
the mussel puff looks amazing
is that plastic chopping yellow and blue boards @15:40 ? I would suggest them to use wooden

You can make a drinking game out of him saying "particularly" 😂😂😂

Staff of 41 for a restaurant like this is absolutely insane

@@Mac2095 Most Michelin restaurants tend to not have too many part-timers or rotating staff because more people = less consistency

So proud to see Indian food get the recognition it genuinely deserves 🙌🙏

Never knew deepinder goyal ran a restaurant
I absolutely love indienee have been there 3 times
Great to see south Asian cuisine making it's mark on a fine dining level in the US.. 🔥
Indian, not South Asian.
Chinese food is Chinese food, not East Asian food.
French food is French food, not Western European food.

Isn't Michelin the tyre making company?
Yes it is
Yes, and the Michelin Star concept was originally created to get people in America to drive more (thereby increasing the wear and tear of their tyres).
And now it's the Holy Grail of restaurant awards.
Impressed with cleanliness
going to make rezzies for me and my wife before they jack up their prices. looks amazing.
That dish on the menu doesn't even mention that it has almonds. What if someone has an almond allergy?
'At least needs five people's hands on that dish before that dish lands on the table.' not sure that was a line he should have used.
Most of the shadows of life are caused by standing in our own sunshine.
Do they modify their base recipe for lactose intolerant people? So everyone will be eating sea bass which were done without butter because there is one lactose intolerant guy eating today? This could make a huge difference in final dish.
very nice congratulations. Must visit next time I am in Chicago!
Can't find a "cousin" in your restaurant.
Do they have subtitles for this
He was cutting the mussels and had a hand-shake with the Truffle guy and selecting them without washing his hand. I would have expected him to wash and dry his hand. May be I am wrong and is edited in this video.
Do you want them to show 50 hand washings per video?
I want in this mans rotation

Frozen store bought Paneer in a Michelin star restaurant 🤷♂️
He explained why in the video. Sometimes with ingredients it’s more about the execution and plating, and as long as michelin inspectors understand that you don’t have to.
Looks like Nanak paneer😂
@@yossarian2909 he literally said freshly made paneer would ruin the texture, were you listening
@oedalis he did explain, and it's bs... you can make fresh paneer, press it and refrigerate for a day and you'll have the same product
When are you going there and making non bs paneer for them
Bro, I was your junior in School. Proud of you🔥🔥🔥

Why is high end food always tiny portions? It's so annoying to go eat somewhere, pay a ton, and leave hungry.
Maggi tomato sauce bottles towards the end of video. I expect Paneer and at least tomato sauce both made in house.
No restaurant makes paneer in house.
@roman5782 not every indian restaurant is Michelin star too.. sauces are all made in house
Great Chef👍👌Congratulations 💐🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🙏
Great stuff. Just replace your plastic cutting boards for the wooden ones, because micro plastics
hmm wodden ones tend to get very small cuts and they can hold bacteria. ig hard plastic can avoid it
Two things to note there; cutting boards legally have to be colour coded, and it's kind of hard to have a colourful wooden cutting board, and plastic cutting boards are much easier to clean and are safer bacteria-wise.
