Meet the Legendary Dosa Man - New York Street Food Icons
Вставка
- Опубліковано 10 лип 2020
- Thiru Kumar, AKA the Dosa Man, has been running NY Dosas, a food cart in Greenwich Village’s Washington Square Park, since 2001. His dosas-which are made from fermented rice and lentils, and stuffed with potatoes, vegetables, and spicy sauces-have become an international phenomenon. Thiru grew up in Sri Lanka and learned to make South Indian recipes as a child. After he immigrated to the United States in the 90s, he made it his life's work to sell affordable, fresh, and vegan dosas to NYU students, professors, and other passerbys.

I LOVE HIM SO MUCH!!! i’m from upstate but every time i visit the city i buy food from his cart because he is the kindest, most friendly man and always takes the time to talk to everyone about their days/lives and get to know his customers, etc. not to mention the food is amazing (and vegan)!!
He's a boss making customers wait for him while he chill and give this interview lmao
He's waiting for the grill to heat up bro
Customer's wait because there's no second NY DosaMan
The stupid commented this don't have any idea about the dosa , since he's waiting for the grill to get 180 - 200 degrees , they are first clients in the morning standing in the queue. While the grill heating, he's giving a short interview
take a joke with that dosa dumdum @@MS-oe2wr
Srilankan tamilian with heavy Jaffna accent.. Legend kandaswamy
* he's an Eelam Tamil. = A Tamil person from the island of Eelam. Sri Lanka is the Singala name for the island, and the Singala dominated govt has been oppressing & committing genocide against Tamils since 1948

Great heart and soul

Who is that guy in the photo with him?
He is devvotti of Shiva❤
One more thumbs up to hit 500. This shit looks good and I don't even know what a dosa is.
This is an old video.
He looks like a South Indian Don with Hulk Hogan's moustache!
Snoop Dogg
Shrilankan Food is love !! Love from Germany
Tamil food
Indian especially Karnataka food
Pondicherry is called masala dosa and in countries in South East Asia, you can get this all around the clock even at 3-4am, it'll be delivered to you piping hot, so it's nothing special really
What kind of samosas does he serve?
how much money do you think he makes?
When that lady said “you got people from new delhi coming here to eat” and the face she made i kinda cringed
Reposted
1:10 that guy face is same as Nick Jonas
what is that crumbly cuscus-looking stuff? 0:25
Its called sevaiya
It is made from potatoes and looks like very tiny noodle pieces and is spicy and crunchy just like chips
@@ManjotSingh-sf2ri someone said, its dry coconut curry
It is coconut chutney, looks red because of chili
@@ManjotSingh-sf2ri South Indian food recipe is not your cup of tea bro
@@bingiesiffley4768 i am sorry bro didnt mean to upset anyone it was aloo bhujia, i just realized
I am extremely sorry
I think he is a sri lankan Tamil
Is $10 a cheap lunch in ny?
@suviram das big yikes

Har har mahadev 🖤
Does he have a gofundme?
I think he doesn't need money. He is satisfied with what he have😊.
Aqua Man oh that’s good for him then :) I was just worried that maybe the pandemic might have hurt his financial situation. ^-^
@@marianne4902 you're right
Player haha no. Being a sex worker means hard work and intense hours. I’ll have a masters degree soon though. ;)
You can help him through venmo nycdosas. Follow his social account on ig and Twitter to know more
Just re-upload the video lol
Does anybody know his instagram?
Nydosas
1:33 uuuuh is no one going to mention that Delhi has shit Dosas compared to the south?
REMEMBER : DOSAS ARE NOT EATEN LIKE BURGERS
u have to tear small pieces of dosas with your hand to get best flavour😇😋
But American like thaga
Tamil represent!!!!
This guy charges soooo much for dosas, for any Indian or even European this is insane.
American rates.
Thyagarajan
Cousin of Sadhguru 😂
I thought he was the burger guy
Fucktown
Yetho Ivan overa scene ppodra mari yenaku thonuthu
Nee moodu
Poda neye
Insanely overpriced. 🥵🥵
3 dollar for samossa nothing in new york downtown area people often made 200000 k there
Those dosas look sad as fuck. I'm sure you'll get much better ones in NYC. My state in India is the pioneer of dosas , in fact we invented the masala dosaa
Noone asked
@@LuminaryMonochrome Likewise.
@ananthkrishna7791 it's a little bit stupid to act like saying noone asked to my comment is the equivalent of saying noone asked to your comment when you're the one who's seemingly going through a great deal to boast and bring someone else down instead of just appreciating the video and the Guy's story
@@LuminaryMonochrome agreed.
@@LuminaryMonochrome The subject of my comment were the dosas. Nothing to do with our hardworking Sri Lankan friend or his struggles. Different topic. Those dosas do look sad AF. 🥲
