Excellent, love this, and sadly tonight I’m having meatloaf, wish it was one of those.
Best presenter NO ARGUMENT.
That egg technique is legit.
ah that kitchen.
Chef Meherwan makes any tasty thing tastier…est… I like your style brother
that ending though lmao
Hygiene and cleanliness … why dont they clean their tiles, appliances and the chimney … atleast cleaning the place once a week will maintain hygiene … The deep freezer … i can bet how dirty and smelly it would be inside . I request youtubers to educate these restaurant staff on hygiene ….
My goat
@bonappetit please keep bringing this chef, his reaction and narration is so refreshing 😍😍
Da GOAT wrap to rule 'em all : Kolkata Kathi Roll
but, tbf, with the overloaded filling options there, those are nearly Mumbai Frankie-esque (messy) than proper Kathi Rolls.
Proper Kathi Roll should be all about the crunchy layered paratha, the juicy tikkas, paper thin onion slices and optional micro chopped green chilies. That's it. And to garnish a squeeze of lime and optional chaat masala/store spice sprinkle.
7:56 that double bite said it all….
Looks very tasty, but some of the hygiene (the filthy tiles falling off the wall in the kitchen) gives me second thoughts. Indians must have iron stomachs and the chefs here no shame, for the cameras to see this in the kitchen.
Chef is everyone’s favorite relative.
Rat at 0:26 but I'd still eat there 365 days of the year
Ads are still playing and I have already liked the video
It's kathii
The legend is back. Have him host everything
True craftsmanship went into that food
Made my mouth water. Amazing host as well
If India can bring up their standard of living to developed country standards, it would be the greatest place on earth.
We Need Chef Lucas X Chef Meherwan collab
Conde Nast should've just sent him to Kolkata if they wanted to a video on Kati rolls.
This guy is the modern Keith Floyd
a half cooked egg in india is a bold move.
Kaati roll vs Frankie? Which is truly better and has more options?
Edit: There's a place in West Village NYC called Thelewala which is closest thing I've had in the US to an Indian street Kaati roll. The Kaati roll company is 2nd option which is alright too in case anyone is curious to try this out.
Not adding a little bit of sliced chillies is a rookie mistake my friend. A little bit goes a long way in boosting its flavors.
You are trying Kathi rolls in Delhi ? If you have guts come to Calcutta to try …. Chickenshit !!!!
i love you CHef Meherwan!
wheres the part where the rats are crawling all over the food and cooks?
This show is excellent!!!
love this guy
Every video I've seen with checf Meherwan, he seems so giddy while talking about food. Shows how absolutely he loves his job
Am I the only one who spotted the rat at 0:25? 🤢
Kabab looks really flavourful and juicy 😊when it’s roll with crispy flakey paratha taste will awesome 🙌
This is the perfect person to make this type of video
Chef meherwan is like if spongebob was a human
Chef Meherwan literally carrying this youtube channel for a while now
Ooooh the host has quickly become one of my fav YouTube personalities! The knowledge, excitement, warmth, humility, calmness. Really love his presenting style!! And the food looks so delicious too!!

Looks delicious, my mouth is watering, thanks 🙂
