Their father, Ghulam Qadir Niazi sahab is my teacher, I have such happy memories with these blokes! Imraan was literally in 10th standard when I used to go to their home to learn. They are very kind and beautiful people, this family is the sweetest! They would make me stay for meals after classes on several occasions! Ahh, I miss them always, more now!!
@@TheBigForkers Yes please. More of no reservations type content. Nobody can match the swag of Tony Bourdain but we can definitely strive to be a rockstar like him.
@@TheBigForkers since when did you start caring about the audience? Keep churning up the class content. 😊😊 Looking forward to see you guys explore Kolkata, and see the city through your lenses
This stuff is incredible! Seeing ya all take a Bourdain tangent was something i felt was going to be inevitable considering the sheer knowledge and zest for food and life you guys have. Keep doing you guys. This is turning into something special!
You guys have set the benchmark really high.. It is really so heartwarming to see all of you keep on trying to take your viewers to such different places and experiences.. and each has its own flavor and unique twists...thank you for the music too!! Much Love !!
Guyssss...enough of appreciating their content ! We all know these guys are doing some real great work... Let's do our bit instead of just commenting. Share the channel with your friends & family . This gem of a show is still at 60k subscribers. We need to increase it to 1mil !!! Enough with the organic growth bullshit. Let's hype it up 💪💪
I am a pop culture guy but i believe that there are two times when you sink and grace the almighty 🙏.. food and music .. this episode made me feel that .. one of your best ... keep going .. kudos to the team
Sir, kya baat hai....You guys have touched that part of delhi which people don't even know about. A true amalgamation of love for food and music.. maza aa gaya❤
Good on you guys!! Hope we see similar stuff in the future! It’s quite surreal that art needs gluttony for the art to reach out to more people. Having said if gluttony is an art, wish you both healthy and prosperous years so that we see more gems like these! All the good things to the entire team!
Outstanding sir. Thumris in Khidderpore, Hindu sthani Classsical in North Kolkata and Bhatiyali in South Kolkata; all interspered with grub that touches heaven and earth should be part of the programming schedule in Cal. When you finally arrive here. That is : -)
Vinod Dua - Rocky and Mayur - The Big Forkers. That's the holy trinity right there! In some ways, Sid and Shashank have transcended Vinod Dua and Rocky and Mayur and come close to what Anthony Bourdain churned out for years (miss him!)! Food is never devoid of culture and politics; this episode is precisely what we need. I'd only add that a little bit more on the history of the food and juxtaposing it against the cultural and political milieu of when it might have emerged and evolved leading up to its current form would make the experience even better! I just finished reading Prof. Pushpesh Pant's Food Path and watched this episode after! Do try to get in touch (if at all possible) whenever you're in Delhi the next time... perhaps we could do something (a Kashmiri meal at my place and trying to get food studies scholars a part of this amazing thing you got going)!
Hi Rishab. Sid here from TBF. Thanks for this thoughtful comment. We would most certainly like to go more in the direction of this episode and dive deeper into the 'life' (culture, politics, history etc.) of the folks. It warms the cockles to hear the comparison to the late great Bourdain (dearly miss his content). We havent been able to do exactly what we want because of the viewing habits of the public and little interest from OTT platforms for creating meaningful content. its all about the masses for them. BTW, I am half Kashmiri :)
@@TheBigForkers Ah, yes! Understandable. Let's hope your work brings about that "revolution" in watching habits of the public here... slow and steady! The night is young and you folks have a lot to walk. Cheers, mahrah!
The best episode this season for me. The funny things is we barely talked about the food. One of the songs they were singing, Rang, has been recorded and produced by Coke Studio Pakistan by the same name, featuring Rahat Fateh Ali Khan and the late Amjad Sabri after which he was shot dead and this song was his last recording.
Truly beautiful episode....delicious to the mind, heart and soul. A special mention for the charming lil budding qawwls who were a treat to see. Would love to see more such culture content with the food.
we need a summary of what all ethnicity Sid belongs to & how many places he has been raised ( no pun intended )... got to know he is half kashmiri today.
FFS so now this guy is from Kashmir too... He reminds me of Baba ram Rahim interview where he says he plays all sports and claims he is expert in everything. Brilliant haha..
Hahaha Kashmiri Mom Marwari-Rajasthani Dad Born on the border of Bihar & Bengal Lived in Delhi as a Kid Grew up in Florida Lived in China for 17 years Married to a Polish-Georgian Home also in Houston Currently living in Goa It gets exhausting
@@TheBigForkers some of your trivias are spot on and shows your knowledge and passion for food. Hope you cover HK again, lot had changed but worth covering.
you guys need to grow your channel organically thru word of mouth.., paste your pamphlets all across bars and pubs in all Indian Metro cities. You guys have a great fanbase with us NRIs to keep in touch with roots. This needs to spread like wildfire! Do explore other royal cities

Must have been such a lovely experience
This has stopped being a food show and reminds me more of "no reservations". I love it!
It was meant to be that, and hopefully goes back to that style. Thanks for comparing this to our spirit guide.
@@TheBigForkers Yes please. More of no reservations type content. Nobody can match the swag of Tony Bourdain but we can definitely strive to be a rockstar like him.
We would like to do more and more in the vein of Bourdains travels, but the audience is complicated in India.

Its comments like this and above that motivates us to do more of what we really like. Cheers Harsh.

This fills my heart and stomach .,.
Wowww ❤❤❤ what an episode .

Thanks a ton
Incredible episode! The best so far from a team that has produced a lot of incredible content already! Amazing, keep up the good work!
Thanks a ton!
A combination of food and culture. Liked it.
Their prowess as Sufism practisers engages trance state in me.
It's something else
Glad to see you guys get back in the groove with the Delhi series :)
Cheers

Raw and real as it gets. Loved it ❤

A meal is the best way to get to know people.
Superb...this is what makes me so proud of India. Eat, love, sing, live and let live. Cheers.
It is wonderful indeed

Thanks
There's food for the body and food for the soul and this episode had both
Thanks
It feels like i belong there
It was such a beautiful day
Classic, please get rocky and Mayur.
Beautiful episode! ❤
Thank you
Great content and food - overall a complete experience. Cheers from Austin, Texas!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks a lot 🙏 for this amazing episode #TheBigForkers 🏆
Glad you liked it
A humble Submission after a binge watch- Text Discriptions should stay for 10 secs
its a fair enough critique. Its a frame by frame issue.
AMAZING! ❤ All in capital!
One of the best places to eat in Delhi. From Ghalib kebab to Zaika-e-Nizamuddin food here runs hundreds of years old recipes.
So good!
The best episode this season for me. The funny things is we barely talked about the food.

Truly beautiful episode....delicious to the mind, heart and soul. A special mention for the charming lil budding qawwls who were a treat to see. Would love to see more such culture content with the food.
Glad you enjoyed it
Love this episode
Thank you, we loved it
Mehboob e ilahi....❤

great video .

We try we try
The quality of content and the number of subscribers/followers are such a mismatch. Deserve a lot more.
We agree, hahaha Thanks for the love
Present sir ❤❤❤

Nah bro. This season ain’t hitting it with me. Love you guys nevertheless.
Different strokes for different folks. Hope you like some of the other episodes
@@TheBigForkers I loved each episode from all your previous seasons. A fan. Thank you guys for bringing such great content to us.
Cheers
This wokeness is kind of a disease, samjhdaar ko ishara kafi hai
What wokeness?
Sorry...unsubscribing
Go ahead
Bro it was so boring. That energy is not their anymore. You guys have to go goa and have some drinks.
Some episodes just are meant to be different man
abey kanas gharana...ask muslims of Middle East they dont consider them as equal muslims at all...they will never treat them as 1!
Whats that got to do with these amazing musicians with such a beautiful soul and history. Leave them out of it.
