Um! Just a little bit of piece if you don't mind, actually the whole of North East India looks almost not indian even in culture, traditions n other stuff with more than 200 tribes so you can guess the diversity.. eg my tribe ' Khasi ' were matrilineal n matrilocal in culture we take our mothers surname n the woman gets the land not the men..

@@ahambrahmasmi2477 With utmost respect we love to eat beef as much as you love Cows. We respect your religion and it's fair on your part to respect our food habits.
This is brilliant, I grew up in a conservative Brahmin household in which everyone shits on things they don't deem to be part of "Indian Culture". No ethnic or religious group has a monopoly on Indianness. Minority religions and people from tribes or scheduled castes have been shat on. This was eye-opening and heartwarming. Kudos to Sonny and the team, this is nothing short of ground-breaking. It reminded me of how Anthony Bourdain used to effortlessly discuss deeply intense political issues. Sonny did just that and took it a step farther by doing it in a light hearted way, throwing in some comedy in a way in which only Sonny can. This is an evolution of Bourdain.
It's just your house culture which is shit, don't blame caste/religion if you can't overcome it. Definitely, evolution is your genes is clearly lacking.
India is home for 1.3 billions of people As a bengali hindu from West Bengal we must respect eachother's culture . Love for our naga brothers 🇮🇳❤ We will always protect your culture. Dont say you are not indian. You are also part of the future superpower country . unity in Diversity , together we will rule the world after usa china
I was born and grew up in India until i settled abroad recently. It was mouth watering to see the Pork, flash back memories when i have tried port fry at a Naga Restaurant in the Capital city of India. Never stopped eating Pork fry since then. Such a diverse culture and cuisine on the platter from start to end of the show. Mind Boggling and thank you so much showcasing the North-Eastern part of India. Hats Off! Keep Exploring and Sharing for us to learn along with you. ❤❤
Sir, The way you are exploring world recipies ... specially indian... Myself as an indian came to learn many recipies and our diversified culture... Thank u north east india.
Visited Nagaland last month and gotta say, it's one of the most beautiful places I've visited. And the food is just amazing. The beef i ever had was in Nagaland.
@@a2050newworld bajrang dal is basically a terrorist organization, bro. But they can't do shit here in the NE. I've been having beef for years now ever since i moved to the NE. I don't live in North India anymore. I prefer the NE over north india anyday of the week.
Those eastern parts of people were using gun even before British colonial. Britishers didn't entered whole Konyak areas. Once British missionary visited one Konyak villege, those people were so aggressive towards him so he ran off to another parts of Nagaland and from there the Britishers gradually convinced the headhunters through native language translator (what im told). In result Konyak received Christ late than other tribes that Konyak are celebrating some 25yr, some 50yr and some 75yr.
I am from India, now living out side -- and I can't thank you enough for showing me this diversity, which unfortunately I never got to experience and enjoy while I lived there. Thank you again!

To all my brothers and sisters from Northeast, we love your food! We have lot more in common than you think! Love from Kerala. To anyone who say you are not Indians, tell them loud and clear "India is ours as much as it is yours" It's not anyone's favor!

Brilliant video Sonny. Loved how you went out of your way to highlight regional cuisines of India, aside from the usual North or South Indian fare. Dare I say, looking forward to more videos on specialised regional cuisines of India, something that even many of us Indians may not be familiar with.
Such an amazing channel! I (like most people) don't have the luxury of traveling the world but through this channel we can all get a glimpse of cultures everywhere. Thank You Sonny and crew for doing an invaluable service and awesome job. Cheers! 🍻👍
Many states in India have diverse foods and they also have a similar food culture so it's not different or weird and we are proud of our countrys diverse food culture.💐
You guys worship an animal,can a cow save you? You have all kinds of man made gods. Don’t you think it’s just about time you worship the true and living God. The Maker of Heaven and Earth? He is the one who gives you breath to breathe. Food on your table, yet you worship a river. Seek the true and living God, he’s supreme, the God of all creation, there’s none like him.
@@magandadan Honestly can a cow save you from eternal wrath? The gods that you make from wood or whatever can they see you or even hear you? Let’s be honest can these images save you? Can a dumb image breath breath into you? Can a dumb man made image speak to you? Can a dumb man made image heal you from diseases? Even a two headed baby is a god to you people. You are too superstitious! There is no god that is made with man’s hands. When you give food to your man made gods the monkeys who are wiser than you are, come down and eat the food. Why don’t you wait and see if your man made gods will eat the food, because there are just images and images cannot eat or hear, they have no life. You need the mighty God who can give you everlasting life, him you should worship, not an animal. Imagine people in your country are dying of starvation and you have an animal that the real Gos made to eat, to sustain you and you worship it! Jesus is the real God, worship him.

this episode will become a world hit. and best in the UA-cam. narrated so nicely. thank you so much sonny for letting us know about our brother states, which was ignored/avoided by the main stream channels from decades, 🤝🤜🙏
I love his reaction hearing about our NAGA diet xD it's priceless. I'm from Nagaland Kohima and I love when tourist/vlogger etc make video about our beautiful state and show it to the whole wide world.
The naga people were a great help to the british in the 2nd ww against the japanese.Some of the hardest fighting went down there.great mountain people whose elders like their own ways and why not.
In the PHILIPPINES I also feel this, you know people look down, like our natives like Ita's, Bajao etc... not just culture how good life people look down and if you make a video regarding how u help, they tag it as an issue that u show Filipino that is poor and we are poor, people are rich is on government and on youtube. I love yourbder who help and love watching it...
People of North East India must not pay any heed to the mindless and derogatory discrimination of a few classless people. We Indians are one. It doesn't matter what food, religious practices or customs people follow from different regions, we're all Indians.
I'm from Assam as well but today after watching your video, I found out so much more about the neighbouring traditions and their culture 💯 Love from Northeast Assam ❤🤗 I have travelled alot on my own as a Photographer but i always wanted to learn more about the tribes near by and Thanks to out i learnt alot today Man...🖐🏻
@The Mighty Orange They were obviously referring to this video in particular. Also, it's a necessary source of food for those individiuals that are not as lucky as you are, sitting behind your computer. No *_reasonable_* person thinks that killings dogs and cats for any other reason besides feeding their family is a good idea. Try again.
@@themightyorange87 I'm a dog and cat person and I'm against it, in my part of the world. But I am accepting of other parts eating these animals. Just like I eat horse and others don't. Just like I eat Cow and as told in this video, it's banned in most states in India.
The dedication and the presentation and visuals are all on point. Every other travel or food show is sooooo boring. I think this is the best travel/food show ever. Thanks alot.
Thanks Sonny, it’s always fantastic to have people see and witness the richness of other cultures. I was born and grew up in Sierra Leone and cherish the time I lived there.
My man! So much respect for what you do, how you embrace diff cultures with open mind and welcoming attitude. I am a Chinese, I dare not to try some of the food you tried😂.
Proud of my diverse country INDIA 🇮🇳, as a vegetarian I respect everyone who eat chicken, mutton & fish. If you’re a non vegetarian then you need not have to judge people eating insects, rats, cat, dog. Just respect every culture of this world man
Thats why im a big fan of this show, because sunny tries traditional food that even locals dont eat all the time. sometimes locals dont even have an idea on those kind of food. this s for all traditions he did on all his episodes. Love this show... keep it up Mr Sunnyside hehe...
The naga people have features more towards the Inca, Aztec and Mayan people. Well… culturally or in ancient times. Beautiful people and an interesting, but beautiful culture . Respect from New Zealand.

3:51 As a Keralite they are welcomed here. They are Indians. Two Manipuri friends of my elder sister who were studying nursing in Banglore came with her during vacation. They stayed here and we took great care of them. They were seeing coconuts, Jack fruit etc for the first time.
Coconut plant maybe can be rare but bruh coconut for the first is a very high standard exaggeration 😂. We got every form of coconut in manipur dried out , fresh watery green and matured ones too
Lol mf come to NE we will give you all those fruits free of cost and forget about coconut and jackfruit you will be amazed seeing different variety of fruits which you have never seen in your life not even your ancestors
Mainland North India -> Associates more with Pakistan , Afghanistan etc Mainland South India-> Associates more with Sri Lanka , Maldives etc NE India -> Associates more with Myanmar ,Thailand , Cambodia etc India is that big and diverse , its actually a Whole sub continent contemplated into a country

Lot's of Love from Hyderabad to North East India ❤
Thanks
That was very mind to ssy..It would be nice if everyone felt the same!
@@maryreynolds5310 yeah I am Indian from Maharashtra state
In India every state has its own culture and food. So if they eat beef or insects or any food that they eat from many generations or centuries so this is their culture and hence they should follow their culture.
So I agree that my brothers and sisters from the north east India can eat beef
And hello if you want you can visit India
Love to all humans on th earth
In my dictionary there is not a *discrimination* word
So I love you all❤😊
@@SahilThorat04 😊 obviously I’m sure you saw the misshapes with the wording..meant to say..word and say. Wow, I usually pay attention. lol
@@maryreynolds5310 sorry I didn't understand, what you want to say?
By the way what is your country's name❓
Hey north eastern brothers and sisters,
We love you and respect your culture and traditions.
From another Indian state just like yours,
Bihar
I never know India have different culture if i didn't watch this 😂😂😂
Definitely this become the first in my bucket list place to go... ❤️
In India we have 27 states 8 union territories and every state has it's own language culture food. Even people look different .
Visit Nagaland during hornbill festival. 1 to 10 December. U will surely love it
I dont think so.Who locks people out of Church?
That is why education is important 😅
It's all because of ignorance that you didn't knew about it..
Love from Nagaland.❤
Following this channel since 2016 and finally coming to our home State feels like a really great accomplishment.
Sonny is amazing...he will try everything and even if he doesn't like it the fact that he tries it amazes me. Thanks for bringing other cultures to our attention. Love these videos.
I taught Geography in class; In The topic Population and settlement our case study is India. Today I've learned a new thing that the people in the state of Nagaland totally looked different from India people. Thank You For The Educational video.
Um! Just a little bit of piece if you don't mind, actually the whole of North East India looks almost not indian even in culture, traditions n other stuff with more than 200 tribes so you can guess the diversity.. eg my tribe ' Khasi ' were matrilineal n matrilocal in culture we take our mothers surname n the woman gets the land not the men..
Almost after every few kilometres cultures change drastically in India then what is the Indian culture ? We all are indians and our diversity is our culture , our unity is our culture . Food habits are different because of different living conditions . @@unknownz1896
I love how Padma was ready to try everything. Just naturally, bring it on… And Sonny was so adorable as a kid.
One of the best sonny show. No doubt. The headhunters one was great. Food and culture and history. One big whole pack. Kudos to the team.👍
Sorry eating beef is not our Indian culture
@@ahambrahmasmi2477correction, "Not Hindu Culture"
And what u gonna do about it? Go cry to ur mom?
@@ahambrahmasmi2477 no such thing. We will continue eating as many beef as we want
@@ahambrahmasmi2477 With utmost respect we love to eat beef as much as you love Cows. We respect your religion and it's fair on your part to respect our food habits.
@@ahambrahmasmi2477 Well I've seen at least two videos now from Sonny that would beg to differ.
This is brilliant, I grew up in a conservative Brahmin household in which everyone shits on things they don't deem to be part of "Indian Culture". No ethnic or religious group has a monopoly on Indianness. Minority religions and people from tribes or scheduled castes have been shat on. This was eye-opening and heartwarming.
Kudos to Sonny and the team, this is nothing short of ground-breaking. It reminded me of how Anthony Bourdain used to effortlessly discuss deeply intense political issues. Sonny did just that and took it a step farther by doing it in a light hearted way, throwing in some comedy in a way in which only Sonny can. This is an evolution of Bourdain.
i guess giving birth to you is their biggest mistakes
Astute observation mate!
Very well said 👌
It's just your house culture which is shit, don't blame caste/religion if you can't overcome it. Definitely, evolution is your genes is clearly lacking.
India is home for 1.3 billions of people
As a bengali hindu from West Bengal we must respect eachother's culture . Love for our naga brothers 🇮🇳❤ We will always protect your culture. Dont say you are not indian. You are also part of the future superpower country . unity in Diversity , together we will rule the world after usa china

I was born and grew up in India until i settled abroad recently. It was mouth watering to see the Pork, flash back memories when i have tried port fry at a Naga Restaurant in the Capital city of India. Never stopped eating Pork fry since then. Such a diverse culture and cuisine on the platter from start to end of the show. Mind Boggling and thank you so much showcasing the North-Eastern part of India. Hats Off! Keep Exploring and Sharing for us to learn along with you. ❤❤
😮
Please don't stop making documentaries like this. They're so important.
He knows so much about different food and people all over the world, lots of knowledge! This show should be on tv so even more people can learn.
Sir,
The way you are exploring world recipies ... specially indian... Myself as an indian came to learn many recipies and our diversified culture... Thank u north east india.
Visited Nagaland last month and gotta say, it's one of the most beautiful places I've visited. And the food is just amazing. The beef i ever had was in Nagaland.
Enjoy ur days!!!❤
@@dbm6231 No one can do shit. 🤣🤣 I've been having beef for years now. Kisiki gaand me dum nahi ki kuch ukhaad paye. 🤣🤣
@@a2050newworld bajrang dal is basically a terrorist organization, bro. But they can't do shit here in the NE. I've been having beef for years now ever since i moved to the NE. I don't live in North India anymore. I prefer the NE over north india anyday of the week.
I tried chowmein in assam was awesome
@@jatinsharma2787 up , bihar are just scumbags. The real hindus live in south or NE
Welcome to the hidden treasure of India and i would like to assure north-east never cease to amaze!
Those eastern parts of people were using gun even before British colonial. Britishers didn't entered whole Konyak areas. Once British missionary visited one Konyak villege, those people were so aggressive towards him so he ran off to another parts of Nagaland and from there the Britishers gradually convinced the headhunters through native language translator (what im told). In result Konyak received Christ late than other tribes that Konyak are celebrating some 25yr, some 50yr and some 75yr.
I am from India, now living out side -- and I can't thank you enough for showing me this diversity, which unfortunately I never got to experience and enjoy while I lived there. Thank you again!
we learn a lot from sonny's content not only does it cover food but the importance of accepting unique cultures is always exciting!!
Great Sonny sir🥂🥂....
Love your work from India🇮🇳💗
Maya je bhaya kreta padek ddiya koi mil gaya 👍
Seeing this allowed me to understand ALL cultures have some kind of divisions. It was a BLESSING to see the STRUGGLES, LOVE, PATIENCE, & TOGETHERNESS that makes a village a UNIT. HEAVENLY CREATOR PLEASE CONTINUE TO COVER & PROTECT US ALL, AMEN.😢🤗 Thank you all for this experience 🙌
Motivates me to travel more and See such unique cultures!!!
I'm proud to be from north-east India ❤💯🇮🇳
Don't worry soon the khajpa's will be coming into your homes as well to eradicate you after they are done dealing with us Muslims.
Lots of love ❤❤❤ hope to be able to come to North east soon and see the cultures ❤

I always wait for the full compilation of a place like this to be released so I can watch it like a move. Thank you to the team that releases the videos like this.
I love this video it’s showing totally different India
India is not just Hindu
I am from South India. I respect their culture..
To all my brothers and sisters from Northeast, we love your food! We have lot more in common than you think! Love from Kerala. To anyone who say you are not Indians, tell them loud and clear "India is ours as much as it is yours" It's not anyone's favor!
Wooow,that's so inspiring. Thanks for your lovely and wise words. From South Africa.
well, they love chow mein more than your masala 😂
@@gaminghub2472 , So sad you hv to laugh on your own "joke"
I'm starting to believe them.. they are more Asian.. from their appearance and to their food. And they don't have the head shake
@@MrReyGuy What do you mean? , "they are more Asian", they are Asian Indians, Whole India is a Multi-Racial and Multi-Cultural country that is the India's Specialty, there are many countries like U.S.A., Canada, Britain etc. also are Multi-Racial and Multi-Cultural but the difference is, in India different Races have been living together for 1000s of years peacefully and in Harmony.
Very few have shown our eating habits to the rest of the world, Sonny has beautifully made this video on northeastern food culture
Great job for covering the NE. Great work. Rest of India needs to understand that eating beef doesn't turn you into a murderer.
Brilliant video Sonny. Loved how you went out of your way to highlight regional cuisines of India, aside from the usual North or South Indian fare. Dare I say, looking forward to more videos on specialised regional cuisines of India, something that even many of us Indians may not be familiar with.
Such an amazing channel! I (like most people) don't have the luxury of traveling the world but through this channel we can all get a glimpse of cultures everywhere. Thank You Sonny and crew for doing an invaluable service and awesome job. Cheers! 🍻👍
Many states in India have diverse foods and they also have a similar food culture so it's not different or weird and we are proud of our countrys diverse food culture.💐
You guys worship an animal,can a cow save you? You have all kinds of man made gods. Don’t you think it’s just about time you worship the true and living God. The Maker of Heaven and Earth? He is the one who gives you breath to breathe. Food on your table, yet you worship a river. Seek the true and living God, he’s supreme, the God of all creation, there’s none like him.
@@gennisparry4352 who released you from the lunatic asylum
Fuck
@@gennisparry4352Jesus 😂 you been on the dmt son
@@magandadan Honestly can a cow save you from eternal wrath? The gods that you make from wood or whatever can they see you or even hear you? Let’s be honest can these images save you? Can a dumb image breath breath into you? Can a dumb man made image speak to you? Can a dumb man made image heal you from diseases? Even a two headed baby is a god to you people. You are too superstitious! There is no god that is made with man’s hands. When you give food to your man made gods the monkeys who are wiser than you are, come down and eat the food. Why don’t you wait and see if your man made gods will eat the food, because there are just images and images cannot eat or hear, they have no life. You need the mighty God who can give you everlasting life, him you should worship, not an animal. Imagine people in your country are dying of starvation and you have an animal that the real Gos made to eat, to sustain you and you worship it! Jesus is the real God, worship him.
i'm a south indian (tamizhian) . i'm always facinated about the northeast to visit to learn about their culture and food for me and my child. this is well put together team Best ever food review show. you did a good job

Sunny if you are still in NAGALAND make sure you visit all district. M sure you won't be disappointed by how different Naga dialect speaking have different unique culture and food habitat.
I've never been to the Indian continent so I'm learning and seeing a lot, thank you.
this episode will become a world hit. and best in the UA-cam. narrated so nicely. thank you so much sonny for letting us know about our brother states, which was ignored/avoided by the main stream channels from decades, 🤝🤜🙏
Extremely proud of our North Eastern cultures and people!
I love his reaction hearing about our NAGA diet xD it's priceless. I'm from Nagaland Kohima and I love when tourist/vlogger etc make video about our beautiful state and show it to the whole wide world.
The naga people were a great help to the british in the 2nd ww against the japanese.Some of the hardest fighting went down there.great mountain people whose elders like their own ways and why not.
In the PHILIPPINES I also feel this, you know people look down, like our natives like Ita's, Bajao etc... not just culture how good life people look down and if you make a video regarding how u help, they tag it as an issue that u show Filipino that is poor and we are poor, people are rich is on government and on youtube. I love yourbder who help and love watching it...
Beautiful episode !! you have shown how diverse the Indian food can be. None of the mainstream media can show this. Thank You ✌
Give hearts to India people❤
Greeting from Cambodia 🇰🇭
the roti or ruti with fried noodles is yummy, i am a Filipino and i love Indians food
Wow I had no idea they eat all of that there! Amazing video bro 💪🏻🙌🏻

People of North East India must not pay any heed to the mindless and derogatory discrimination of a few classless people.
We Indians are one. It doesn't matter what food, religious practices or customs people follow from different regions, we're all Indians.
And they share a percentage of South Indian ancestry and DNA.
I'm from Assam as well but today after watching your video, I found out so much more about the neighbouring traditions and their culture 💯 Love from Northeast Assam ❤🤗 I have travelled alot on my own as a Photographer but i always wanted to learn more about the tribes near by and Thanks to out i learnt alot today Man...🖐🏻
you left out 6 states of north east...Sikkim, Manipur, Mizoram, Tripura, Arunachal Pradesh, Meghalaya.
Hope you'll cover them in future...
Everything is so perfect. 😍😍.
yes i think so
@The Mighty Orange They were obviously referring to this video in particular. Also, it's a necessary source of food for those individiuals that are not as lucky as you are, sitting behind your computer. No *_reasonable_* person thinks that killings dogs and cats for any other reason besides feeding their family is a good idea. Try again.
@@musiclifelove Rubbish. The woman in the video eats it by choice. For its "medicinal benefits". Try again
@@themightyorange87 I'm a dog and cat person and I'm against it, in my part of the world. But I am accepting of other parts eating these animals. Just like I eat horse and others don't. Just like I eat Cow and as told in this video, it's banned in most states in India.
Yes yummy 😋
The dedication and the presentation and visuals are all on point. Every other travel or food show is sooooo boring. I think this is the best travel/food show ever. Thanks alot.
Duh ! Look at the channel’s name 😅
Agreed Denny.
I am a chef, and I love this channel. I speak multi-languages, and I wish to join your team.
I am from North India, but I love Northeast Indian Food, I love all parts and people of my lovely country........Jai Hind! Jai Bharat!
It really is the best food review show yeahhhhhh, almost like a documentary every video!
😉👍
😋😋😋 interesting
Thanks Sonny, it’s always fantastic to have people see and witness the richness of other cultures. I was born and grew up in Sierra Leone and cherish the time I lived there.
Being an indian its very exciting and nice to see the part of india i have never seen before thankyou
I am surprise to see you in Nagaland so proud of you
My man! So much respect for what you do, how you embrace diff cultures with open mind and welcoming attitude. I am a Chinese, I dare not to try some of the food you tried😂.
Sonny really makes this show😂 when he was like “put that plate from where you got it”🤣🤣
When he said you can stop pulling out plates lol😂
Big W for Sonny, showing Northeast India to the world! Much love!
Sonny : Holy sh*t
Aunty alebu : Yes

This is why I love your show, Sonny…you show us foods that people like me would never get a chance to try! Thank you for your awesomeness 🥰🥰🥰
Proud of my diverse country INDIA 🇮🇳, as a vegetarian I respect everyone who eat chicken, mutton & fish. If you’re a non vegetarian then you need not have to judge people eating insects, rats, cat, dog. Just respect every culture of this world man
They also killed and ate cows

Not dogs and cats
@@JamesSheba-l2s if you eat any meat then don’t judge bro
Thats why im a big fan of this show, because sunny tries traditional food that even locals dont eat all the time. sometimes locals dont even have an idea on those kind of food. this s for all traditions he did on all his episodes. Love this show... keep it up Mr Sunnyside hehe...
The naga people have features more towards the Inca, Aztec and Mayan people. Well… culturally or in ancient times. Beautiful people and an interesting, but beautiful culture .
Respect from New Zealand.
India is not a vegetarian country. India however has the largest number of vegetarians. The two are different things.

This show is no longer about food for real guys. Wow. I never knew about this part of India until I watched this episode yesterday 🙆🏾♀️
Absolutely loved the coverage of NE India. So fascinating.
3:51 As a Keralite they are welcomed here. They are Indians. Two Manipuri friends of my elder sister who were studying nursing in Banglore came with her during vacation. They stayed here and we took great care of them. They were seeing coconuts, Jack fruit etc for the first time.
Dont spread any lie😂 Coconut and Jackfruit are found in abundance here😅
Haha why man.... Coconut and jackfruit 😂...these are like most available fruits here
Coconut plant maybe can be rare but bruh coconut for the first is a very high standard exaggeration 😂. We got every form of coconut in manipur dried out , fresh watery green and matured ones too
Lol jackfruit is found everywhere in northeast and coconut to we use it in our cuisine tooo lol who you lying
Lol mf come to NE we will give you all those fruits free of cost and forget about coconut and jackfruit you will be amazed seeing different variety of fruits which you have never seen in your life not even your ancestors
Mainland North India -> Associates more with Pakistan , Afghanistan etc
Mainland South India-> Associates more with Sri Lanka , Maldives etc
NE India -> Associates more with Myanmar ,Thailand , Cambodia etc
India is that big and diverse , its actually a Whole sub continent contemplated into a country
You have the best job Sonny. I so appreciate what you do.
I want to visit these places to experience it for myself.
Thanks for showing us so much culture. It is amazing!
