Sid and Shanky, Can’t thank you guys enough man for the work you do! Been a subscriber since the channel was at under 10K subscribers, and I must say, not a single video you guys have published was ever any less than impressive. From the madness and gluttony of street food to the finesse of fine dining, I love how holistic you guys are with covering all formats of food and dining, shows your loyalty towards the cause of teaching us about food, that too in the most interesting formats possible. After getting used to your food content, nothing else cuts it, The Big Forkers has set my standards for consuming food content very high. Kudos to The Big Forkers and the entire team! Love you guys! Please continue doing this great work!
Wow! I did expect a lot of street food and famous foods of Delhi and India but THIS I was not expecting! LOVED the production value of this episode alone, and don't have words to express how I feel seeing The Indian Accent...thank you for this brother!
Every episode doesn't have to be a roast or a raw take. Such videos are cool too : educative and engaging. They surely have learned from the feedback they got for the foreign episodes. Also , the music totally works !
Bro, your content is next level. Its not for everyone but the audience your targeting loves it!! Please keep posting it.. I love it, Specially when i am eating too :D
This review was simply wonderful! I've heard about the place several times and definitely want to dine there one day...I really appreciate the video and the extra details you added. I’ve heard about the restaurant but now this will be on my bucket list. The most underrated channel on YT . Thank you for sharing. Keep the videos coming. GodSpeed
Didn’t start the episode at the beginning mainly because of the grandiose background score . But slowly after ignoring the music and just focusing on the content this episode was elevated to a different level and loved it .
Missed the entire vibe of Sid & Shanky being raw, unfiltered & giving an unadulterated take on the food. It just became too fancy for my liking, just didnt have the "Forkers" vibe to it. Love you both & the team!
Was searching for this particular comment. Glad someone said it There's something fishy attached to this particular restaurant as well The restaurant has become infamous for posting fake/paid reviews on Google due to which it has lost credibility Just search for 'Indian accent - Mumbai' and sort the reviews by lowest first You will see tonnes of reviews where people have said that they were offered 150 bucks for posting a 5 star review for the place Don't expect the forkers to visit restaurants with such bad repute.
Love his food. Always on list on Delhi visits from Los Angeles. From Friends Colony to Lodhi hotel now. And actually in New York too a couple of years ago. Was pleasant surprise.
Yo forkers ... I have limited time to spend in delhi on my next trip and you guys just can't stop expanding the palate 😂... Anyways another bang on episode 🎉...
So nicely done, such an ode to Chef Manish Mehrotra for the institution he has built. Also Goa is Goa, Delhi is Delhi and Indian Accent is Indian Accent. The fact that the tone changes based on what you are reviewing is based on context. Some places you can be irreverent while others require reverance. Haters gonna hate.
I had no idea that Priyadarshini Raje Scindia was producing your show. Thats crazy. Kudos to you guys looks like things are moving along. I still remember the days when there were like a few thousand subs only and yall still made top quality content. Keep it up!
As a friend and supporter of the show, she was super helpful in making the Delhi Season a success. It is our gratitude to her to share the credit with her.
Among those dishes, coke looked like that dude who dropped out yet still made it to the top and the table who hold PhDs and stuff😂😂😂 always love your content the best on the internet not gonna lie
What picked my interest the most is the saag and the paneer. I am wondering why the chef chose a clear pureed saag. I think there could more chunkiness - garlicky, tomato-ey, punjabi-ness. The village rawness. The fragrance of ghee kind of memories. That’s the only thing that hooked me for a second. I have never eaten at such a place, but i wonder how do these places taste on dishes like saag that are close to heart. Currently out of budget, but may be one day. Just to understand the difference.
Big chunk solid Mutton Biriyani - Cherian Sir , I beg to differ with the choice , it’s not “Arsalaan” … it’s from the same region though , it’s - “Dada Boudi” Biriyani … straight from the 1857 Mutiny place - “Barackpore” (WB) … try it out
Im desi dude who loves bbq. Wtf are these lies about sticky bbq in Texas? Texas is all smoke baby. The funniest thing was everyone around the table was like, “yah yah yah”. So stupid hahaha
Sid here, my folks live in Houston. I have shot a series in Austin. It is 💯 true that North Texas BBQ is smoke and dry. But the North East gets a bit wet with sauce. Also, I clearly misspoke, I meant general American BBQ is on the sweeter side, but said Texas instead.
@@TheBigForkers Thanks Sid, fair enough, can't argue with the fact that generally speaking, American bbq tends to be on the sweet side. Probably the main reason I love TX BBQ. Since I have your attention...you should do a series on great desi restaurants in the US. There aren't enough too many of those, sadly.
@@TheBigForkersyep. . The only mention of his full name. Chap got u the permission to shoot. His food creations can takkar Manish Malhotra's designs !!!😅
I remember an earlier show years back showing indian accent and it still looks the same, the thing with their food is premiumization of street food and not delving deeper into indian cuisine, i am sure it tastes good but for fine dining you want more. I think sienna kolkata is a better bet than this restaurant. Also, aminiya serves better biryani than arsalan in kolkata.
Judged and ranked 7/10 - obviously a bit pretentious with an emphasis on style over substance. The blue cheese naan is pretty good, though...worked for me! Maybe coz I like blue cheese
I went there, ordered 2 starter dishes, left the food on the plate after 2 spoonfuls. Food was not good, as simple as that. Good Food is: Pandora Road Sarvana Bhavan Andhra Bhavan Bukhara and Dum Pukht Dakshin This was just some pretentious place for a instagrammer not for a foodie
Gourmet special, appreciated but this doesn't fulfill the stomach and anything...still...sophisticated attempt, Malabar Hill and Cuffe Parade would love this 😂
@@TheBigForkers the food, look at what other food reviewers do. Talk more about the food, shots of the food. Give the viewer an idea of the food, how it tastes.
But the point is why do you want to put a stinking cheese in a beloved naan, couldn't come with any other combination? Just putting a stupid french cheese doesn't make it special and elevated or should I say classy
Unnecessary hype n hooplah with western classical music at background won't make food better any way...each dish here would be beaten by at least 10 vendors out there ...and Bhukhara is institution can't be compared with anything else...
Only the Delhi Xaverians especially those who passed out in the seventies know the emotion called Fateh. We knew him when he hung outside the grills towards Ludlow Castle Road during the lunch break and when he stood with his cycle under the tree, near the school gate down that road, after the school got over. When it comes to Fateh ki Kachori , everyone else is a me2 or a wannabe, even the latter Xaverians. Those who haven’t seen the legend are not allowed to opinionate, no matter how adulatory.
Thats ok. There is time for different experiences in life. It is not priced for everyone. That is why we try and make these different episodes so you get an idea of what is available.
you got demoted to The small forkers. Good shanky wasn't part of this fake posh shit. Even the stories and description for each food isn't that appealing.
We did write in the description that we are trying something different. What is fake about a modernist take in Indian food. 100 some episodes on Desi food and a few different format, the howlas loose their tits
@@TheBigForkers okay I take my word (Fake) back, the rest not. But ssly I thought even Sid would have this opinion. Regardless, he tried it and I guess he is speaking honestly. Would have rather enjoyed This or That version : Indian Accent vs The Bombay Canteen
@@TheBigForkers Forgot to mention, yes I have been to Indian Accent and Bombay Canteen as well. I AM NO EXPERT. But I won't go to Indian Accent as the chef wants people to visit again.
this so called cook is not well known in Delhi//this accent joint near new friends colony is patronised by few chaps who reside around it who have loads of money to blow//food wise not value for money
This was actually boring. Why didn’t the usual host turn up? I don’t understand the mallu and tamilian woman - they add nothing to the episode at all. Essentially, Indian Accent is desi food elevated to a point where it is familiar but also unappealing. This is the place I can imagine doing biryani ice cream with dahai sauce and dried meat to mimic an ice cream sundae. I’ve been many times and frankly speaking it’s extremely overrated and will be heavy on the wallet! I’d rather go to Bhukara over this place and what makes it nauseating is the chef’s arrogance. He believes he is a trend setter and a culinary disruptor but in reality he is a guy who cooks good food that is overly complicated.
With the amount of subscribers, I feel someday I will tell my kids there was a very underrated show, and teach him stuff about our gen
The glazing is crazy
Sid and Shanky,
Can’t thank you guys enough man for the work you do! Been a subscriber since the channel was at under 10K subscribers, and I must say, not a single video you guys have published was ever any less than impressive.

Thanks for these kind words
One sensible channel, mature reviews, and no-nonsense content. Great job guys.
Thank you

You videos popped up in my feed out of the blue and I can’t stop watching. I love your passion for food, place and culture. Great job guys!
Awesome! Thank you!
Why people are subscribing??? This channel is also very good for various food education........
Last meal: Mutton biryani!
Genius!
Legend, he is!!!
Every episode doesn't have to be a roast or a raw take. Such videos are cool too : educative and engaging. They surely have learned from the feedback they got for the foreign episodes. Also , the music totally works !

Recently subscribed to the channel... And the efforts sid and shanky put in is outstanding...1 million and many more to come... 🙌🙌🙌
Shanky, the man. He did not want to have an intellectual conversation on a food show with tiny this and that.
Poor guy had a real bad infection
@@TheBigForkers oh! Wishing him a quick recovery.
Didn’t start the episode at the beginning mainly because of the grandiose background score . But slowly after ignoring the music and just focusing on the content this episode was elevated to a different level and loved it .
Thanks, I (Sid) really wanted this style, which works for some of the audience and test it. I have my answer.
Amazing concept, a wonderful restaurant, delicious food by chef Manish and an episode full of equally classist comments by Sid!
Ouch, what classist comments though....
@@TheBigForkers ahahaha typo ho toh aisa
Being a Chef I can understand one needs a courage to eat Blue Cheese Naan, nonetheless, it was good to watch chef Manish's wonderful creation
This place opened as OTW in then Aman hotel and interiors were not changed much since then.
Missed the entire vibe of Sid & Shanky being raw, unfiltered & giving an unadulterated take on the food. It just became too fancy for my liking, just didnt have the "Forkers" vibe to it. Love you both & the team!
This was a different episode mate
Was searching for this particular comment. Glad someone said it
There's something fishy attached to this particular restaurant as well

It's better if it's unfiltered, raw and real.
Happy anniversary chef
Thanks! 😃
Though I'm not a Chef
Left that business in 1999. It's a title I lost a long time ago.
Love his food. Always on list on Delhi visits from Los Angeles. From Friends Colony to Lodhi hotel now. And actually in New York too a couple of years ago. Was pleasant surprise.
Try that Butter chicken kulcha in one of the Kake di Hatti

Thank you for this comment. A whole slate of episodes on street food. One elevated experience with a different touch and some folks get pissed off.
Shanky is a street guy I feel he didn't want to dilute his brand by coming here Respect 💯
When did Scindia join as co-producer to this show?
Co-producer is a credit given to those who have been part of helping a season succeed
good move by Shanky by not joining you , he is smart
This episode opened up another wider audience for us. We are proud of teh work done on this one.

U r at next level now. Congratulations to all Big Forkers Team🎉🎉🎉
Thank You
Happy anniversary sid veer❤
Thanks
next level episode 💥💥
Strangely they haven't been to Madhya Pradesh, even though they have a scindia on the team
Will do one day
When you see someone eating Indian chaat with a fork and knife means “yeh toh apni jeb se bahar hai boss!”
Fair enough
The background score could be new.
Why Vivaldi every time on every show?
Our first time trying it, was an experiment that some lived, others didn't like. Gotta switch things up from time to time.
Mota bhai got connections
Big chunk solid Mutton Biriyani - Cherian Sir , I beg to differ with the choice , it’s not “Arsalaan” … it’s from the same region though , it’s - “Dada Boudi” Biriyani … straight from the 1857 Mutiny place - “Barackpore” (WB) … try it out
Thanks for this. Now we all have more choices and options to try
Im desi dude who loves bbq.
Wtf are these lies about sticky bbq in Texas? Texas is all smoke baby.
The funniest thing was everyone around the table was like, “yah yah yah”. So stupid hahaha
Sid here, my folks live in Houston. I have shot a series in Austin. It is 💯 true that North Texas BBQ is smoke and dry. But the North East gets a bit wet with sauce.

Hyderabad soon ??
Hopefully
Chef Manish Mehrotra right ?? You guys have the Surname wrong at the end of the video. Forked it up 😅
Shit, did we?
@@TheBigForkersyep. . The only mention of his full name. Chap got u the permission to shoot. His food creations can takkar Manish Malhotra's designs !!!😅
Damn...sometimes QC fucks up
9:43
Good man , missing his anniversary eating Daulat ki chaat 😂😂😂
Hehehehe...
i get a reason that shanky didn't make it becuz this episode was too high brow for him.. lol
He was just very unwell
food is 7/10 when I went last.
I remember an earlier show years back showing indian accent and it still looks the same, the thing with their food is premiumization of street food and not delving deeper into indian cuisine, i am sure it tastes good but for fine dining you want more. I think sienna kolkata is a better bet than this restaurant. Also, aminiya serves better biryani than arsalan in kolkata.
Sienna is excellent indeed
Me always at Sarvi, Nagpada ❤
Arey!!! The subscriber count hurts my eye🙏
Please hide it 🥲🙏
Underrated YT channel
agreed bro - Baffles me tbh...
The quality of our viewers is kick ass.. So quality over quantity.. That's what we tell ourselves atleast.. 😉
❤️
Judged and ranked 7/10 - obviously a bit pretentious with an emphasis on style over substance. The blue cheese naan is pretty good, though...worked for me! Maybe coz I like blue cheese
What is the price of one such nun?
jis din ameer bn gya us din jrur khaunga 5k ki meal
Plenty of great meals at all prices. Joy of food in India.
I went there, ordered 2 starter dishes, left the food on the plate after 2 spoonfuls.
Food was not good, as simple as that.
Good Food is:
Pandora Road
Sarvana Bhavan
Andhra Bhavan
Bukhara and Dum Pukht
Dakshin
This was just some pretentious place for a instagrammer not for a foodie
I think she meant 'The Stig' 😅
That is correct 👌
Hey Producer!
Gourmet special, appreciated but this doesn't fulfill the stomach and anything...still...sophisticated attempt, Malabar Hill and Cuffe Parade would love this 😂
The food is special
Back to again only Gyan and cinematic shots overload 😢
Back to?
@@TheBigForkers the food, look at what other food reviewers do. Talk more about the food, shots of the food. Give the viewer an idea of the food, how it tastes.
Find them to be a know all ..the discovery elements are mostly missing...and hating Veg food..kindly of disqualified them for me .
Fair enough...
@@TheBigForkersfuck veg food
for Indian restaurant ,background music is opera - a bad choice
Rwaf the description buddy, trying a different style
stig**
They serve Avg food. Ofcourse costly but at least food has to be tasty…tried twice.
fair enough, that is your opinion
Now that Manish is out, abhi kya?
It will continue under the tutelage of Rohit Khattar and Shantanu Mehrotra
Acha hua Shanky nahi aya😂😂😂
And scindia aur so called Rajput says that they don’t eat pork look at them feasting on it
Who said we don't eat pork?
But the point is why do you want to put a stinking cheese in a beloved naan, couldn't come with any other combination? Just putting a stupid french cheese doesn't make it special and elevated or should I say classy
Because it tastes divine
Naam bade bade darshan chote😂😂😂
Satya vachan bhai, kya bole hum
Unnecessary hype n hooplah with western classical music at background won't make food better any way...each dish here would be beaten by at least 10 vendors out there ...and Bhukhara is institution can't be compared with anything else...
Suggest trying something different once in a while
Do u turn on Bhangra while eating😂😂😂.
Guys I'll be F**king honest, y'all peaked with the Goa season. If I wanted to watch Chef's Table, I'd be on Netflix.
Once in a while we try something different. Everyone has their favourite episode(s)
Watch the rest of the season if this episode ain't for you mate

Oh wait here a minute. Let me go get grab some munchies for your high horse
Too posh for a hard core foodie like me. It's a pass for me
One had to try everything
Why no Michelin….
Cuz only MRF
Michelin Guide doesnt exist in India, YET !!
Health and safety out the window even in the best restaurant in the country. Chefs w beards and earrings can not be tolerated.
Said who?
Shanky has not missed anything, they serve pathetic food. aesthetic ke 14.
idk about the choice of going here and not bukhara
Keep watching the series
Bukhara also coming
Most FAMOUS 🤣🤣🤣 no one knows or heard of
That's why it's consistently won most coveted food awards for the last 2 decades.
We know. Most of us know.
Most famous...doubt it.
Quite frankly, it is
What brand of beard oil do you use, Shanky? So sexy!
He is the new poster dude for Patanjali hair Oil. Baba Ramdev chose him personally. He called it resplendent.
That's high praise!
Hahaha... Screw you both.. 😂
Sirf jeb dheeli hogi , pet nhi bharega.
Experience milega , and taste kar paoge bus
Thats ok. There is time for different experiences in life. It is not priced for everyone. That is why we try and make these different episodes so you get an idea of what is available.
Why is this episode so boring to see?
Because this is a more mature episode...we make stuff for everyone. Not every episode is for everybody
@@TheBigForkers makes sense, need more money to understand your "maturity"
Still calling royals HH Maharani. Wtf lol

Indian accent is one of India's most succesful Fine dining restaraunts, if not the most, with branches in Mumbai and New York.
Way to fancy for Indian palate , much on the show off side
It is an Indian palate and one of the most lauded Indian reatsraunts
