I guess it's making it's mark in cities also and not just major cities. NE cuisine goes unnoticed in majority part of the india but nonetheless, it's been on a rise in whole of India and hopefully it makes it mark everywhere.
Pressure cooker is such a quintessential cooking equipment in indian household. Never saw it being used in restaurant, this chef is amazing in terms of innovation
i've worked at several restaurants that use pressure cookers, its not really new technology or anything. It's just a cooking method, different cooking methods are more suited to cooking different things.
@@rnash999 👆🏻 It's *that* effective and I'm learning to use it myself now with only 18 months hands-on. My mother pressure cooked leftover roast "hash" with potatoes when I was young...1970s. The pressure cooker is a fabulous tool and in commercial kitchens, more important than they might realize.

I was quite surprised to find Doh Khleh on the menu, kudos to chef Chintan for representing such an ignored part of the country. Lots of love from North East, India.
Im pretty sure this is the chef I saw from a different video, and I absolutely love this chef. He feeds all of his staff, even the dishwashers. I love his drive for his skills, while making sure his staff has 100% of his support as the owner & executive chef.
As far as i know, the chef made it in a mix of Indian & Filipino. The way he cooked it, it's similar to the filipino ( "ilocano" to be specific, Northern part of the Philippines) dish called "Dinakdakan."
Im from Shillong, capital of Meghalaya and ive never seen anyone here to grill the meat before we mix it together. But i love that you took our dish somewhere hence i have no objection.
Bruh, no dish in that restaurant is truly traditional and authentic. They take the original recipe and try to make it more tastier with their experiments.
He is a chef who makes things the Indian way. All of us in India have a different recipe for every food item but the ingredients he uses is really accurate. Anyone from the US who loves Indian food and visit or live in LA, definitely visit his place to get the closest taste of the food in India.
Fuck the culture man. He's a simple guy doing his job. Stop sugar coating everything. Nobody gives a fuck he's Indian and making indian dishes. Indians are everywhere in this earth.
Michelin stars are old now ..not many desire to get Michelin stars now a days..chefs like to be in world's 50 best restaurants.. that's like an Olympics man...gaggan has proved it twice to be in world's top 10 restaurant.(no7 and no 5)
You know there will be some good food when they use all parts and nothing goes to waste. Long tradition of making the best out of very little while still making it as good as possible.
And when Chef Chintan said that, the dish doesn't care about the presentation, it's about the taste and wholesomeness of the meal, I mean that's the most quintessential thing about Indian food.
Meghalaya is proud. Still So many other delicacies to discover here, hope it’ll serve the same feeling you guys feed in after getting to know the dish from our native 😀😋✌🏼
"unapologetic indian" tshirt. This guy brings so much to the table. Enterpurner-wise, business-wise, & skill-wise. And I haven't even tried his food yet. His drive and energy speak for it self. Can't wait to try!
That's how actual Indian food is cooked at home, pressure cooker, served in the same pot its cooked in. They might not win a Michelin star but will win hearts of people who eat their food.
First I love how fresh the food is. I also love how clean the kitchen is. They take cooking seriously and you can tell they put there hearts into every dish 💯
Huge respect for this guy, for not being a sell out and diluting the authenticity of his dishes to try and appeal to New Yorkers. He's kept it authentic and doesn't cut any corners hence why he is prosperous.

Dohkhleh is my personal favourite. It goes best with jadoh., I am a khasi and 'Dohkhleh' meaning mixed meat is a khasi delicacy. Steps for preparation using my father's recipe 1) Buy a whole animal head from your local butcher. 2) Firstly grill the head for 2-3 and clean of facial hair and the tongue. Do this continuously till you've removed all the facial hair. 3) Wash the cleaned head in cold or running water. 3) Cut the head into big chunks and wrap the brain in a banana leaf and boil it in steam. 4) Boil the big chunks of meat in water till it becomes a broth and the meat becomes soft and tender. 5) Remember to add ginger to the boiling water. 6) After the meat is cooked, start removing the bones and cut the meat. 7) When cutting the meat it's recommended to use scissors to get the desired edge and size. It is advised that you should cut the meat half the size of a. grape and not to big and to not throw out the tongue. 8) Add some onions that's thinly sliced from pole to pole, mix well. 9) Add the brain cooked in steam to the mixture and mix well along with the onions and add salt, remember to taste. 10) Cook some rice, take out your plates, scoop your rice, add the broth your rice, scoop a handful of dohkhleh to your plate. E N J O Y. IF YOU FIND THIS HELPFUL AND WANT TO USE THIS RECIPE LEAVE A LIKE AND A COMMENT. DOHKHLEH IS THE PRIDE OF THE KHASI AND JAINTIA TRIBE IN MEGHALAYA.

Never knew about that dish with the egg in it nor the one with pork skin, sad I can't experience more of my grandfather's heritage.
Well now I can convince my western friends who aren't familiar with Indian cuisine that yes Indians do eat pork and it's more than just RICE, CURRY AND NAANS(which are monstrous if you compare them with the ones available in India)

@@pieratesofcarribean never eat pork but want to try but when I just think about beef the guilt for lifetime comes in my mind and I am not even religious Hindu 😂
The amount of work, effort and thought that these guys put into their dishes is, nuts. Thank you, thank you. I know. I know. It's a gift. What can I say? You're welcome.
Thats how you run a restaurant with simplicity and quality..... Love from India.....I am glad and very happy by their way of cooking things, the marination, spices, giving time to each dishes to get cooked properly... The chicken pulav won my heart... Yes thats how its cooked
Glad to see your brought some dishes from north east india, you can add some more ingredients like smoked pork with dry bamboo shoot, this is very popular in North East India, or smoked beef chutney with roasted tomato and roasted chilli with some garlic salt
@@randoindabando9477 in northeastern parts of country and in South they do eat. Depends mostly on the religion of a person and how much adherence the person pays to it . But yes, lots of people don't eat beef in India for cultural reasons .
@@karankumar-km9gi Very true. In fact in Kerala, even Hindus eat beef. And I'm a Bengali myself and know of many Bengali Hindus who eat beef, although I'd say it's got more to do with their wish to explore, than beef being a staple food item for them. Fish and mangsho (mutton) is where it's at for most Bengalis.
haha I'm from Meghalaya, India and this is the first time I've heard an Indian restaurant doing one of our dish and doh khleh is a dish of Pnar n Khasi tribe... it's not authentic, still not bad
This isn't so easy to make these unbelievable indian items which is so hard to find at one place in India. So genuine and I like to visit this restaurant in NY. Hope they open one in Florida.
Went there for the first time recently and loved the food. The goat neck biryani was out of the world. Haven’t had this good Indian food even in India.
Wish I would've known about this shop when I visited nyc, I found out about his restaurant through yt a couple of days ago and everything looks so good and I love how he has dishes from all over India not just the "basic" stuff

Any part of India which was not under an extended Islamic rule has pork dishes. Goa, Northeast, Central Indian tribes, Nilgiris and Coorg.
I'm from Meghalaya.. nice to see our food being appreciated..
Wow I'm actually from Meghalaya. This is such a treat to watch, I've already watched Alvin's video but this was surprising
If anyone's curious what watch the first chef is wearing, it's the GA-700 G-Shock.
So, many eastern Indian dishes!! Good to see, mostly north and south gets all the rep.
The amount of work, effort and thought that these guys put into their dishes is, nuts.
Thank you, thank you. I know. I know. It's a gift. What can I say? You're welcome.
This is so so so goodddddd
Ray mark

When you get excited seeing Ray Mak instead of the actual video.
Thats how you run a restaurant with simplicity and quality.....
Love from India.....I am glad and very happy by their way of cooking things, the marination, spices, giving time to each dishes to get cooked properly...
The chicken pulav won my heart...
Yes thats how its cooked
This mans passion for his food is what I aspire to have for anything in life
I love the thing that the dish is served in the same pot in which it is cooked.I think this is the most genuine way of eating any food.
I think he was right Indian cuisine it's going to get bigger and popular next
Do a shot whenever he says “humongous”, love the food.
Hey, he taught us how to make Chicken Tikka Masala on munchies, hell yea.
I'am from Meghalaya Thank you so much for including Dohkhleh In your list of cuisine really it's a privileged 🙏🙏🙏
Bro do Meghalaya people's also use a lot spices like Western Indian
Glad to see your brought some dishes from north east india, you can add some more ingredients like smoked pork with dry bamboo shoot, this is very popular in North East India, or smoked beef chutney with roasted tomato and roasted chilli with some garlic salt
Thought they didn't eat beef in India?
@@randoindabando9477 in northeastern parts of country and in South they do eat. Depends mostly on the religion of a person and how much adherence the person pays to it . But yes, lots of people don't eat beef in India for cultural reasons .
@@karankumar-km9gi Very true. In fact in Kerala, even Hindus eat beef. And I'm a Bengali myself and know of many Bengali Hindus who eat beef, although I'd say it's got more to do with their wish to explore, than beef being a staple food item for them. Fish and mangsho (mutton) is where it's at for most Bengalis.
A humongous Shoutout to our man Chintan & chef Eric!!! Definitely soul food.
The way he wants to create new dishes... I would try everything in this place. 🤤🤤
haha I'm from Meghalaya, India and this is the first time I've heard an Indian restaurant doing one of our dish and doh khleh is a dish of Pnar n Khasi tribe... it's not authentic, still not bad
also champaran meat from bihar...
Am from Meghalaya am so proud that you guys include one of our traditional food 🥰🥰🥰
This is the beauty of true India, many cultures mixing and producing the most beautiful and unique flavours. Unity is the beauty of India!
Gujarati chefs like Chintan are able to combine the best spices and techniques to create extraordinary dishes.
How do you know he is Gujarati ??
Pandya surname belongs from Gujrat State & His pronounced of English Sentence.
This isn't so easy to make these unbelievable indian items which is so hard to find at one place in India. So genuine and I like to visit this restaurant in NY. Hope they open one in Florida.
Not much of a meat eater but glad that non-vegetarian Indian cuisine is coming out to people.
Yes I am a vegetarian too.
*Non-vegetarian cuisine brought to india
@@fearyflamingo2260 authentic non vegetarians dish created in India
@@fearyflamingo2260 Lol people in India ate meat since ancient times what are you talking about?
@@fearyflamingo2260 I guess animals were brought to India as well.
I like that they are not copying restaurant recipes, instead working on homemade recipes which take time. Wish luck to these people.
just looking at how he makes the food and how it's presented, makes me feel like royalty eating it
Proud to hear that such a restaurant exist.
Andra native I grew up in the United States here.
This is an Indian restaurant that does things right.
You guys are crazy beautiful chefs. Much respect. From the bottom of my heart I hope to visit your restaurant. Much love to you all.
This restaurant is full of Indian passion, thank you chef.
“The fear of failure is not present in our universe” should be the first thing you see when you open your eyes in the morning.
You know a restaurant is good when they are very specific on where they get their meat.
Everything he does is phenomenal and humongous. 🤣
Went there for the first time recently and loved the food. The goat neck biryani was out of the world. Haven’t had this good Indian food even in India.
"Humongous and fenomenal" x99
You forgot "Testicles".
+ integrity
Wow I'm amazed I'm from Meghalaya you guys took our authentic dish to America..I'm proud of you guys
Wish I would've known about this shop when I visited nyc, I found out about his restaurant through yt a couple of days ago and everything looks so good and I love how he has dishes from all over India not just the "basic" stuff
He had me at integrity over appearance with that first dish. 1:06 in and I already wanna hug this guy
Chef Eric’s the man!
He basically made Indian Sisig!
Hahhaha sisig nga talaga nuh
