Okay no offense, but as a Desi Gujarati Indian man, I would never go to Michelin Star restaurant to eat India food. Of course I cannot afford it been the main reason 😂 but also I grew up eating my mother's hands delicious food & street food here in Andheri-Mumbai.
It seems like a unique experience but I can guess the taste by just looking at those dishes. They might taste fantastic but my taste buds along with a Billion Indians taste buds would not be satisfied in a Michelin Star Restaurant, our taste buds will get satisfied in street food & home cooked meals.
For many Indians, Luxury is overrated but Desi habits are in the heart.
You should seriously try Street Food & Dhaba Food versions of those dishes & compare those with Michelin Star restaurant. I bet you the Street & Dhaba's will win
You root for establishments and people, and it shows.
Does anybody knows the name of the painting of 15:43?
Im surprise as a viewer that viewers recommended this restaurant
South Africa !
I dined at the Indian restaurant in Dubai that you had in another video, and I think I'd like this one as well. But as a non-drinker I assume they have a non-alcoholic drink pairing as well. I also happen to be in London on the 21st, but clearly a champaign dinner wouldn't work for me.
wowww
As a chef I love it when other chefs do a modern take on a cuisine, I do this with Indonesian, they do it with Indian, love to see it! Authenticity mixed with the new. No boundaries, but it still makes sense. The elegance of fine dining and the appeal of street food all in one.
Never, ever.
I don't know if he ate at Indee before or after his trip to Peru.
But you could tell within the first two minutes that it wasn't going to be anything special and would end up being pretty ordinary.
I'm also surprised he came here.
I wish he'd gone to Gaggan again.
Very interesting dishes with creative plating. An overwhelming list of unfamiliar ingredients. However, it made me crave a simple lamb curry with garlic naan.
You have to come to India!!
Patra is a mild tasting food as it is. So its not wrong to be flat. It would be like saying the wheat crackers were flat.
if you do taste with alexander in nyc id be there!!
I so appreciate this program. As a passionate home cook, I taste the dishes in my mind ; and I feel I have a little bit of what the host is experiencing. I am grateful.
It is insane to me how something to stinky can come out to be so elegant.
The last dessert made my jaw drop, really beautiful craftsmanship!
Why He is speaking different in the Studio compared to speaking to the waiter?
im so tired of people doing fusion or french based indian cooking, indian cusine is so powerful on its own. doesnt need some silly fusion gimmick (even if done well)
I have to agree with Alexander that I too associate big bold spice flavors with Indian cuisine, so my expectations would be looking for those bold flavor combos. However, that is not to say that delicate flavors delivered to the palate that draw out an exquisite taste on the tongue would bring a memorable pleasure. But boring flavors would be a sad thing in a Michelin starred restaurant. The dishes shown were very beautiful and thoughtfully presented. I hope this restaurant continues to grow in its creativity and memorable flavors.

Gaggan 2.0
I think this is the most critical I've ever seen Alex. I think he's a really nice guy and tried to be generous, but you can tell he's not that into it.
This was the second time I have watched this, I didn't feel as though you liked this. Or at least wowed like I have seen you at other 2* places.
The plating of the white fish course — with the white & blue plate — was really beautifully done.
I love the way you said KOLKATA …. & Kasundi… …
Ok kids….. !!. you know the drill….. attention all current home foodies , and in some cases….. Sous in their own awesome establishments …. What are you in with watching this….?
Me…… cheddar gold fish and a few tallies…. Too tired to cook tonight…
the music is sometimes to loud in your video
Alex, come to Surabaya, Indonesia and try the newly open restaurant own by one of Masterchef Indonesia judge, Arnold Poernomo, he is the brother of Reynold, the dessert king in Masterchef Australia. The restaurant name is Arpo. Go check it out 😁
Quick question, Have you ever had real indian food? Like a real sheermal?
