Old Dhaka HINDU Street (Shankhari Bazar) Food Walk l Kashmir Biryani House + Vaishnav Bhojanalya

- During our food tour in Dhaka, Bangladesh we undertook a food walk in the bustling and historic neighboourhood of Shankari Bazaar. It is a Hindu dominated locality with myriad street food options. The name is derived from the word 'shankhari' which refers to the artisans who make shankha a kind of bangle made from conch shell that is worn by married Bengali women.
The first stop was a mobile fuchka vendor near Jagannath University. He usually caters to the locals and students of this establishment and keeps changing his location with the passing day. Unlike the Indian counterpart, these fuchka were smaller in size and the thick paste-like stuffing consisted of mashed potatoes, onions, cucumber and spices. They are placed in a bowl and dunked in spiced tamarind water. It was zesty, tart and refreshing.
Next we went to a small eatery beside Jagannath University which was named Joy Bikrampur Mistanna Vander. It was full of locals enjoying breakfast. We got our spot at one of the shared tables. Most of the people were having soft and flaky cheka porota with some kind of sweet dish like halwa or rosogolla. Very few of them were having sabzi. We too tried the above combo of porota and mishti. The savoury porota went very well with the dense rosogolla and soft chhana mithai.
After this local favourite meal we reached another eatery which is renowned for their fish meal. But first we couldn't resist ourselves from trying a quintessential Bengali shingara that has notes of panch phoron in it. Afterwards we ordered some rice and foli macher jhol which was a light curry made of bronze featherback fish and some veggies. There were many other fish curry options too but we picked this as we haven't had it before. The curry was simple yet hearty.
From there we visited Radha Madhav Confectionery in the vicinity which is known for non onion garlic pure veg confectionery items. Since we were full, we opted for a patishapta as it looked really tempting. The gooey khoya kheer stuffing was truly divine.
While heading to the next sweet shop, we stopped by a roadside vendor selling homemade kasundi in a huge handi. Locals have encircled him to get their stock of this essential condiment that goes well with many food items.
Next at Joy Ma Mistanna Vandar, we first marveled at the symmetrical cutting of a fresh batch of kacha sondesh that came in a tray and then went on to try a piece along with chom chom and ledikeni. All these three sweets are traditional and popular. Kacha sondesh was soft and luscious, ledikeni was warm and delightful while the chomchom was densely and slightly sweeter than the other two.
From there we moved to Kashmir Biryani House which is an iconic biryani destination in this locality. The unusual name has a somber yet random story behind it. The genial owner shared some anecdotes about this old local favourite eatery and then treated us to small portions of their best sellers-chinigura kacchi biryani, basmati kacchi biryani and polao and chicken roast. The chinigura biryani was fragrant and delicious and so was the pulao and chicken roast.
Around evening we joined our friend Anish from Plates & Tradition at Tanti Bazaar. Here we had some chanachur mix from Jamai Bou Chanachur cart. They are a local snacks chain that serves chanachur mix from these small, tidy and quirky mobile carts. These can be found across Dhaka and Chittagong. With all the zesty and contrasting elements, the chanachur mix was a riot of flavours in mouth.
After this we landed up at a cha stall for some milk tea as it was what we were craving for. The frothy tea was accompanied by Potata which is a tasty biscuit by Pran Foods. Made of potato and herbs, it seems to be a cross between a wafer and biscuit.
Then we headed to our last destination Jagannath Bhojanalay. The owner was overwhelmed to have it and his enthusiasm was all over. He proudly introduced us to his small yet busy non onion garlic rice meal place where one can have a hearty homestyle meal without burning a hole in the pocket. He served us almost all the dishes from his menu but since we were quite full, we tried just five of them - cholar dal, echor, kashmiri paneer curry dhoka, kochu saag and chatni. But what touched our heart was the warm hospitality of the gentleman. He even accompanied us out on the streets post meal and offered us some murudi, khaja and paan.
It was a memorable time relishing the popular street food here at Shakhari bazar in the company of the locals.
the first man with fuchka was trying to say his daughter got admitted in Dhaka University (the top ranked university in Bd), you can see the pride in his face,despite his struggle to earn, he was able to get her daughter properly educated , how simple he is to share this to you:))
This is the bengali Mentality!
What can you expect from this Holy Land.
1000 years in most fertile plain, and they are still p00r and haven't bothered to create or invent anything on their own. All the food that Bung-holies claim as unique to their culture and gourmet are the most mediocre copies of ordinary food from North India, which are not even special.😂🤣...Kya bakwas samaj hai inlogon ka. Itne saalo se copy karte aa rahe hai, kuch invent nahi kiya...Macchi, Bandar, keeda , patang pata nahi kya kya khate hai ye Bung-holi.
No wonder ,ye Bung-holies UK ,US aur Canada me North Indian khaano ke restaurants chalate hai, aur apne restaurants ko Indian resturants bolte hai....Abhi samjha kyon?😂 Inlogo ke khaane ko koi moo naa lagaye.😂
@@Rahul_Singh100 Aaa gaya sale hindi bolne wale chutiye joh Bengoli ko galiya de kar road par hagteh hei. Salo pahle gdp per capita mein uthna phir bhokna. Aur ek baat Bose ek bengali thaa.
@@Rahul_Singh100 don't go to Canada. India is better ;)
Owner of jagannath restaurant got so happy to see his hindu brethren from India . His joy could be seen .
Jai Shri Ram 😊
Sumon Da was such a sweet host... loved him...Bangladesh is a foodies paradise... love from Kolkata.
Very decent approach to food and men...humane approach...bridge builder between cultures. Awesome
Indeed.
Sumon Da - love from India, Jai Jagannath.
Dhaka and Kolkata are like Amritsar-Lahore. Both cities are divided by border but United by food. Good to see how Bangladeshi’s responded to your queries in Hindi. Loved the accent. Jai Bangla and Jai Hind ❤
I am also from Kolkata..
What a line bro❤️
Long Live Indo Bangla friendship. Few fanatics destroy inter faith harmony
Absolutely True Thinking...❤️❤️❤️
@@prafullakumarsinhasinha3341 you mean RSS and BJP.

Tere Jaise log ek plate biryani k liye Khatna karva lete hai. Direct action day k din tere Jaise 🍑 de rahe the Bangali K2vo ko.
Please visit Bangladesh. You are most welcome.
No one can be more welcoming than Indians. You should go to Bangladesh nd stay there
Arey Binod Das! Kya haal chaal?
Two minutes of silence for Bangladeshi hindus who have been ethnically cleansed🙏
This is a great privilege for Bangladeshi people that you came and experience the hospitality of Bangladesh. Thanks for introducing Bangladeshi cuisine. Take my cordial gratitude and do visit Bangladesh again. I hope this is not the end of your journey in Bangladesh.
The ending of the video was one of the finest that I have seen on UA-cam so far. People indeed want to befriend other people, they want to hug each other and this comes from the heart. I sincerely hope that people across the subcontinent decide to dissolve their differences and move on.
Bengali, be it Bangladesh or West Bengal we love to serve food of our own to any guest...it is happiness ❤
Correct 💯
Simon da jai shree ram
আপনি কি দক্ষিণ কোলকাতা থেকেই বলছেন?
But, Bangladeshi food and West bengal food are not the same buddy.
Totally 2 different food and ingredients.
You can watch West Bengal food In this channel then compare.
And let me know. Thank.
@@Cinema_Lover_ i am telling more about people rather than food. Though I think item or type of Bengali food on both sides same.. however ingredients or spices differs sometimes...
As a Bengali of India Iam feeling ........!!!!! DHAKA wala video bahut achha cover ho raja hai !!!! Iam fond of your video !👍👍👍👍🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳
I have been to Dhaka few times, their food & hospitality is very good. Plus they have lot of respect and love for India & Indians.
Thanks Anubhav for showing the veg restaurant in Shankari bazar. I was missing veg restaurant in Dhaka!
@@Smain346Banani I have heard is a posh locality in Dhaka. So maybe it is expensive.
I would rather cook myself and eat than eat at any of the restaurants in Bangladesh. In West bung-hole , atleast you find many restaurants run by North Indians , so u know the food is going to be authentic and pure...But in Bangladesh , they are all Bung-holies.
yet every year more and more people like you flood into Kolkata and Bengal. because bengalis are easy going you show your mentality easily. maharashtra south Indians are smart and know your tendencies so keep you under control.@@Rahul_Singh100
@@Rahul_Singh100
You seem to have a problem. Bengalis are universal, not divided by any border . You have very limited knowledge of cultural diversity
This is the first time any vlogger has had the courage to showcase this part of Dhaka...kudos to you...loved it. I didn't know this existed. ❤
There are lot of things remain that you guys still don't know. Come up over here and discover the beauty of Bangladesh. It's a awesome country indeed.
Sanjeev Sanyal 😊I am 💯agreed with you 👏🤗
why is courage required to show puran dhaka?
@@popinjay3000 nothing just unnecessarily playing the minority victim card
Seriously?
Playing victim card everywhere? !!
Chu**ya.
Huge respect for Shumon Da🙏🚩
Genuine love in Suman Da eyes...❤❤❤
Loved to see the hospitality of Sumon da. It seemed as if he met his big brother from India.
Bilkul
Suman da was so courteous, I felt that he got goosebumps when he came to know that Anubhav is from India.❤
I think deep inside every/most hindus in Bangladesh have a deeper love and connection to India as it's the birthplace of hindusm
@@Pikkinmink7 in the end we all are same
@@santoshkyadav4370 that definitely
Food culture is completely same with my state Odisha. Love to Bangladesh 🇧🇩
Bhaina in many place of bangladesh food culture is completely same as assam
@Hafijur Rahman Exactly brother u r right.
@Good time Sata katha
@hafijurrahman6217I'm from western bihar ..the Magadh division of bihar and i don't have any similarity or connection in food or any connection whatsoever...you might have connection with maithili speaking east biharis
@hafijurrahman6217i am from Assam,and there is not a bit of similarity between us and Bangladesh. Assam's food, culture and traditions are totally different from yours. Kindly, don't spread false narratives.
I spent almost half of my life in old Dhaka, beside Shakhari bazaar, this made me nostalgic. This unique Gali has a lot to offer. Really, food connects people.
You are may be the first big youtuber who covered the full Shakharibazar. Much appreciation.
I thank you for covering Bangladeshi cousins. I'm one of your follower for quite sometime. To my judgement you are good human with high human qualities besides a top graded foodie. The food bloggers of the subcontinent doing a great job by increasing people to people contact presenting lovely cousins and sumptuous food from various community and tests. I wish you all the best.
He is a non-vegetarian person and he does very interesting food vlogs
I love eggs of hilsha rather than hilsha ❤😂 and last but not the least I can feel the emotion of a vaishnav hindu of serving food to a Indian hindu 🙏🏼🚩
People realising the plight of hindus in Bangladesh and what islam is ...
@@Red_Frankenstein Bangladesh = Peoples republic of Bangladesh NOT ISLAMIC REPUBLIC OF PAKISTAN. There is a big difference. The word SECULAR is embedded in the Bangladesh constitution. Islamic terrorist even attacked the biggest Eid prayer in Bangladesh, killing common Muslims. To save everyone from these crazy people Bangladesh government is always ensuring protection. Do not make things communal. Yes, we do have our extreme radical fanatics. But the biggest radical brain breeding ground is in some of the bigger Madrasas of India like the 'Deobandh' Madrasa. You reduce the number of these backward Madrasas in India and stop the spread of this hate disease. The amount of effort Bangladesh, made so far to kill the Islamist terrorists on the spot (without even taking them to any court) or hanged their leaders; both India and Pakistan failed to do so. So before commenting on Bangladesh; ask yourselves what have you done so far? To hang, Nirvhaya's rapist in New Delhi, it took you almost 10 years; and you have the guts to compare yourself with Bangladesh
Keep your very favourite Hindu- Muslim devidation limited in india only. Please.
@@Red_Frankenstein what plight did you see in this video? Please specify. I guess you were feeling more connected with 'Sumonda' because of his 'Jai Sri Ram' greetings.
Yeah, he was almost emotional serving food to a hindu from india, felt the connection ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Bangladeshi's are very friendly and large hearted
Loved this coverage of Bangladesh.
Yes we are very friendly
Loving the Dhaka series, Anubhav Dada! An unseen side of the city.
You also ended up savoring kochu - the banana stem curry. Bravo!
Kochu is taro not banana

Similarly, learn to respect Bangladeshi Muslims, beacause Bangladeshi Hindus can live smartly because of Bangladeshi Muslims

People around the world knows or shows old dhaka only by few foods. But you just explored some pure gems of Old Dhaka.
It was treat to watch Mr Suman the owner of Shri Jagannath restaurant Such a sweet, humble and the way he was serving food with excitement and love was amazing..
Difference between Bengali Singara and North Indian Samosa is that....in Bengali Singara ,aloo is cubed and diced and the maida cover is thinner and light....where as in North Indian Samosa, aloo is smashed with spices and the maida cover is thicker. Also Bengali Singara contains Ground nuts and in Winter season contains Cauliflower and green peas...we Bengalis also consume Mutton keema stuffed Singara ❤❤❤
Smashed aloo singara also found in Bangladesh.
Travel more. All sorts of Samosas including Peas, Nuts are found in North India.

Great to see someone from Delhi visiting Bangladesh and trying Bengali dishes. I want to visit Bangladesh very soon as my ancestors are from their. -- With Love from West Bengal, India.
What Bung-holi dishes? 😀 What you call Bung-holi dishes are mediocre, tasteless copy of normal dishes from North India. So how is it unique to ur culture? The question arises is if u even have a culture or identity ,if all that you have is mediocre copies of others' inventions.💩
This episode seems to have touched the emotions of the cultures, people.. Feeling human..🎉
Ur knowledge about food is owsm sir...I'm from Siliguri West Bengal.... lots of love and respect from Bengal
I have seen so many food bloggers but he is different, he respects people, their culture, and especially the food! I never see him criticized or make a judgment of any food, just enjoy and live life

I remembered you from one of the Food Rangers videos in Delhi during Ramadan a few years back. Your respect and understanding of the muslim community and their tradition was very apparent. Much respect and admiration. If only more of us realized we are heading back home to the same Almighty regardless of our different paths and journeys. I wish you all the best, sir.
