  • Tapping into her unique heritage, Danikkah Josan set out to open a casual restaurant to blend her father’s Indian and mother’s Latina roots. The outcome is Taco Mahal. Located in the same spot where her father once ran a magazine stand for over 30 years, Josan dishes out reinterpretations of Mexican staples using classic Indian ingredients. Tacos come served on naan or roti, with fillings like Chicken Tikka Masala and toppings of various chutneys.
    Now more than ever, thanks to Instagram, people are eating with their eyes. But does all this Instagrammable food actually taste good? What’s the story behind popular new food like Taco Pizza or Cheetos Macaroons? “Fork Yeah” answers these questions head on. This series goes to the source of the latest and greatest food trends and most ‘gramable dishes to find out how they taste and what inspired the making of them.

    Basically the 'Sabzi' on the 'roti' served as one dish as opposed to served in a bowl with the roti, like we normally do in India
    huh, with some celantro or coleslaw whatever, that's the salad in here lol
    very innovative! just like Apple

  • @noisysounds4420

    What's Mexican about this? The celantro?

    • @trinoncook9908

      Cilantro isn't even exclusively Mexican. Cilantro (coriander) is super prevalent in India.

    • @noisysounds4420
      @noisysounds4420 6 років тому +1

      Trinon Cook yes I know that. But calling it celantro and not corrander is a gave. What's Mexican about this dish?

      @gublaman 6 років тому +5

      How it's all assembled I guess? Looks like if you disassembled it and you get a normal Indian dish. Cool marketing gimmick I guess?

      Shaik Shamir it's assembled like a open-faced sandwich?

    This is just naan with curry on top instead of serving them separately.

    I am starting to get the "This is not genuine" feeling. Anybody else knows what I'm talking about?
    Its like he says the same things for every single food item in his videos xD
    Its not like I'll ever try any of the food that are featured in the videos, considering, I live far away, but still... It kind of started to rub me the wrong way...

  • @oscar_n_t

    isn't chicken tikka massala a scottish invention?
    so there is no mexican part and the only indian part of this is the naan.
    still looks fantastic though, i really want a curry now

    The tacos are small little meat , the bowl is also not enough if I pay 12+ for a platter I better get ENOUGH tasty food & the $8 taco is like 1/3 of a Chipotle burrito . They need to work with the appearance of the restaurant too. Disappointed . Not worth the hype

    There was another place that did roti tacos a while back, it's a decent concept.
