- Trying some of the BEST Indian food in Toronto!
I explored Little India, or Gerrard India Bazaar, on Gerrard Street East in Toronto. This area is famous for South Asian food, stores and culture! When you walk down the street I swear the street smells of curry: BEST.SMELL.EVER.
My stepfather is Gujarati & eating on Gerrard Street was a staple of my childhood!!
It was so great to explore the area again with my family, eating our way through Little India just like old times.
We stopped at FIVE different places:
1. MotiMahal Restaurant 1422 Gerrard St E, Toronto, ON M4L 1Z6
2. King's Karahi 1330 Gerrard St E, Toronto, ON M4L 1Z1
3. Desi Burger 1342 Gerrard St E, Toronto, ON M4L 1Z2
4. Baldev Paan and Cold Drink House 1399 Gerrard St E, Toronto, ON M4L 1Z5
5. Udupi Palace 1460 Gerrard St E, Toronto, ON M4L 2A3
Thanks for watching!
Looks so good, making me hungry!
Benjamin Jenks thanks! It was all really tasty 😋

I love Indian food but it is too expensive in the USA that I can almost never eat it.
I love how patiently dad talks about everything...there is so much passion there!
Great video 👍 keep doing more videos different foods and culture
Ma'am none of we Indian heard this background music in our life. I don't know why everyone uses the same theme.

New sub
Travelling Hungry Thanks! Loving your videos too!!
This was really great to watch, lovely to see the foodie parts of Little India in another part of the world through your eyes.
The vegetarian dishes looked especially yum.
Travels in India, London & the UK Thanks so much! ☺️ I’ve been going since I was a child, so it was nice to go back. The chaat is always one of my favourites! Are you vegetarian?🌱
@@RoamingRebecca - It's always really nice to go back to familiar places.
Thank you for asking, yes, I'm vegetarian. It seems to be the way to go, especially at this moment in time.
Travels in India, London & the UK Very true! I honestly didn’t notice there wasn’t any meat on your channel- it shows you can eat SUCH tasty things without it!! 😄
@@RoamingRebecca - Without sounding "preachy"...
...the varieties and choice with vegetarian foods are infinite and even more so with veganism becoming more popular nowadays.
If you have connections through your stepfather then definitely you should plan a "foodie" visit to Gujarat one day (that's if you haven't already been).
Can i ask, where about's in Gujarat is your stepfather from?
Travels in India, London & the UK I really want to go back to India, especially Gujarat! His family’s Gujarati and that’s what he grew up speaking, but he was actually raised in Uganda until he came to Canada as a refugee
Rebecca, I love the way you eat all the things. A fresh soul 😂 came , eat and took beautiful videos.
Do visit India after covid.
Always concentrate on india and indian content ur channel will grow faster.. good luck❤️❤️ lots of love from INDIA

I used to live in this neighbourhood at the top of Ashdale Avenue. I know all the spots on here! Great to see them again! Well, except for that dive bar, Jenny's Place a.k.a. "The Kick and Stab". I wasn't earning a lot of money at the time so the BJ Supermarket was a great place to shop for cheap samosas and pakorah.
Loved it🥰🤩
Lots of love from india
Eating the pani puri and the paan whole is a real challenge😂

surya krishna thanks! It was soooo tasty 😋 I can’t even decide which my favourite dish was!! Maybe the chaat or the karahi, it’s too hard to pick just one!!
Try Benares Cucina Indian on 49 Front St as well. Tad pricey but the food is the best you get in the city, I would say.
I have watched many videos of foreigners trying Indian food but the foods are actually not the best of India but this video is really good and it includes my favourite snack pani puri.
I am an Indian by the way
BeccyBaby! We love you....keep it up!

She's damn cute ❤️
Here are some tips on eating Indian food -
1. Start off with starters like a kebab or tandoori platter usually served with tamarind sauce, mint or yoghurt sauce.
2. Next we then have the flat bread (roti, chapati, naan, puri, paratha, kulcha, bhatura) with some of the side dishes, either vegetarian or non vegetarian curry aka gravy aka sauce. You tear the bread and scoop out the meat along with sauce/gravy/curry. The warmer the bread the more the flavors and less chewy.
3. Then we take the rice into the plate and have it with the lentils or veg/meat sauce/gravy/curry and clean it all up. The hotter the rice, the more chance your mouth will get burnt.
And If you having the biryani rice, you take it with a salan gravy and a raita based yoghurt dip. And it's a complete meal on its own.
4. Finally finish off with a sweet desert either gulab jamun, rasogulla, kheer, payasam, barfi, sandesh etc
We don't scoop out the bread and rice and the sauces/gravy/ curries together at the same time.
However some people have only the bread with the veg/non-veg sauce/gravy/curry or just the rice with the sauce/gravy/curry in their meals. Since eating both rice and bread can be too heavy for some.
You will also find plenty of Cuisines to try from various regions in India. Next time you order Indian food ask them restaurant folks which cuisine does the dish you ordered belong to or which state.
The more popular cuisines outside India are -
Mughlai cuisine - (North Indian) dishes eg Mughlai chicken, Changezi, Nihari, Mughlai Paratha, Haleem, Keema, Pulao, Kadai, Pasanda, Rogan Gosh, Mughlai biryani,etc
Punjabi cuisine - (North Indian) eg Tandoori Chicken, Butter Chicken, Tikka Masala, Sarson ka Saag, Rajma chawal, Palak Paneer, Amritsi Kulcha, Chole Bhature, Chana Masala, Dal Makhani, Naan, Bhatura etc
Tamil cuisine - (South Indian) eg Dosa, Idli, Uttapam, Vada, Chettinad Chicken, Chicken 65, Sambar, Pongal, Payasam, Upma, Ambur Biryani etc
Malyalee/Kerela cuisine - (South Indian) eg Prawns in coconut gravy, karimeen fish, Beef Masala fry, Puttu, Appam, Idiyappam, Fish Molee, Thalassery Biryani, Banana chips etc
Awadhi cuisine - (North Indian) eg Musallam, do Pyaaza, Korma, Galouti Kebabs, Malai kofta, Rumali roti, Chaat, Aloo gobhi, Gulab Jamun, Badami Chicken, Lucknowi biryani etc
Bengali cuisine- (East Indian) eg Fish in Mustard gravy, Mutton Kosha and Chaap, Mishti Doi, Prawn Malaikari, Bhapa Ilish, Muri Ghonto,Aloo Poshto, Luchi, sandesh, rasogulla, Jhal Muri, Kolkata Biryani etc
Goanese cuisine- (West Indian) eg Vindaloo, Xacuti, Cafreal, Sorpotel, Bebinca, Dangar, etc
Gujrati cuisine - (West Indian) eg Dhokla, Khandhvi, Khakra, Shrikhand, Kadhi, Thepla, etc
Marathi cuisine - (West Indian) eg Pav Bhaji, Misal Pav, Vada Pav, Chicken Kolhapuri, Batata Vada, Modak, Bhakarvadi, etc
Indo-chinese - Chowmein, momos, manchurian chicken/pork, sweet & sour pork, chilly chicken/pork, springrolls, Szechwan, etc
If you find any other cuisine other than these, then it's an added bonus.
Not all Indian food is spicy. You will find some which are not, like Malai kofta.
By the way Biryani rice has about 20+ varieties depending on which state is cooking it. There are other Biryanis outside of India also (Burmese, Indonesian, Arabic, Afghani, Iranian etc). Anyway here is a list of Indian Biryanis that I know of. Each is from a particular region of the country so the ingrediants, method of cooking as well as taste differs from one another. The popular meats used are Chicken, Mutton, Beef and Sea-food.
Here is the list-
1. Awadhi/Lucknowi
2. Kolkata
3. Hyderabadi
4. Ambur
5. Thalassery/Malabari
6. Kashmiri
7. Mughlai
8. Beary
9. Kampuri
10. Memoni
11. Bombay
12. Konkani
13. Kozhikodan
14. Dingdigul
15. Donne
16. Bohri
17. Yakhni
18. Muradabadi
19. Murshidabadi
20. Sindhi
21. Bhatkali
22. Kalyani
23. Rawther
All these biryanis will fall in either 2 categories, based on the method of cooking. Category 1 is called pucki biryani where the rice and meat are cooked in separate pots and just before being fully cooked are added together in layers. Category 2 is called Kacchi biryani where the marinated meat and the rice are cooked together like a one pot dish with the meat and rice being layered and cooked till done. Dum method of cooking is also popular where the biryani pot is sealed with flour so as to completely retain all the flavors inside the pot till the cooking is done.
The north Indian biryanis have subtle spices and use a lot of flavoring agents and essence like Screwpine water and Rose water etc. Raw spices are sometimes removed before serving the biryani.
In South indian biryanis, it's all about the spices. Each spice used gives the biryani a different character all together.
I hope you will get a chance to compare between the different types of biryani and let us know which one you like more.
Also another cousin of the Biryani is the Pulao, I hope you will get the chance to also try a good pulao, like the Mysuru Chicken Pulao. It's pretty neat.
Now Paratha bread is called Paratha in North India and Parotta in South India.
Also, main cereal of North and west Indian is wheat ie flat bread and for South, east and north east indian it's rice.
So in north India and west india they will have 3-4 breads and a small portion of rice later to finish off the curry/sauce/gravy. In South and east india they normally have 1-2 breads and then 3-4 plates of rice.
In north east india its rice eaten with beef and pork with bare minimum spices. Flat Breads are eaten sometimes as a snack. Indo-chinese and tibetan snacks are popular in the north east.
An Indian meal is eaten in a thali which literally means plate. It's a plate of various dishes which makes a thali a complete meal as it usually comprises of all the 6 flavors of food. If you want, you can check the link below to see how a thali is made.

If I may suggest , perhaps next time you can choose one cuisine from India for your Indian food video, say Punjabi, grab 3-4 items from that cuisines and have it. Then try another cuisine for the next round.
Happy eating ☺️
Nobody is going to read this long ass comment....
