'Valo Tea' means Good Tea. 'Valo' = Good in bengali. So if you mean Good Samosa you should say 'Valo Samosa' (NOT 'Valo Tea' Samosa). Likewise: Valo Jol (Good Water), Valo Bari (Good House), Valo Manush (Good person). Hope you find this small linguistics session helpful, Chris 😄
Hello Chris, love your videos man. Btw here in Bengal we don't call a samosa samosa but "Singhara", and the funny thing is, to the hindi speakers in India "Singhara" means "Water chestnut" fruit. So it very confusing to them as well as to us Bengalis. In India the we don't always have same word for same thing and also same word for completely different things.
Another great video, Mr Lewis! BTW, you're right about the sweet undertones in Bengali cuisine. It's the same with Gujarati food. Having grown up in Bombay, I prefer my Indian food to be savoury. Cheers and keep up the good work!
Brother I just love how u learn the languages so quickly. Ur hindi is very fluent & I'm glad u r catching up the Bengali language. I'm Bengali but I don't live in Kolkata I'm from durgapur.
Chris, One correction Delicious meaning is not 'Valo tea ' in bengali . Delicious=Susadu A tea seller told you the term 'valo tea' in your previous vlog without understanding what you want to say delicious in bengali.
Yes Chris, the tea seller said valo tea which literally means good tea and not delicious. Also if you want to ask any vendor what is he selling, you can ask "dada ki ki hobe?" And he'll tell you all the options.
The highlight of these kolkata vlogs is 'Bhalotea', like literally throughout his trip at Kolkata, he hasn't been told by any localite that Bhalo tea means good tea.. Pure innocence of Chris🥰
bengalis are the best in showing love and once they trust you they shower you with the warmth and love all they can .... as a non bengali i can assure you they are the best ( caution : this can be on the other side if you break the trust then the will be on the other extreme)
In the month of October, Durga Puja, the biggest festival of Bengalis, will be held on 20-24 October. Please come to Kolkata at that time and be very happy. Don't miss the opportunity. We will wait for you😊

Bengal is not just about food; though bengali food is unique; do go to a standard bengali joint & show us how you feel about our food; go to college street to see biggest book shops; walk down the small lanes in inner Kolkata to hear how young generations learn to sing or play music; go to Belur Math to feel indian spirituality! Kolkata got created from a tiny town of Bengal to be the Capital of India; feel the grandeur.

My Mother and I look forward to your videos, so thank you Chris. You and your mate Max are such lovely and respectful young gentlemen. Much appreciated.

11:00 Bengali Samosas are far different from normal samosas....Bengali samosas are made of Cauliflower and Potato(no mashed potato as usual). Bengali samosas are filled with chopped potatoes and cauliflower.
Everything in Bengal is different from other Indian states cuisines. Everything has sugar added to it even biryani. ..now max says samosa too. I'd cry eating sugar inside samosa but you are used to it from childhood so you won't understand our pain. 😂
