For all you blr folk who seem to have taken a personal offense to the dosa being dissed... Quite frankly I'm not sure what you're so offended about... Every household in south of india has their own version of it... In my opinion much better versions of the ones we tried exist and I've had the opportunity to have some of the better ones... Dosas do not originate from karnataka contrary to popular belief they've been mentioned in tamil scripts which date before sanskrit so they have been attributed to the region as well... But that is not the point here... There's a thousand other great culinary origins you can be proud of in the region and we've celebrated those... The dosa game is just too hyped for no great reason is all I'm saying.. I wouldn't normally give an explanation but this just seemed to be a constant rant by some over enthusiastic folk in the comment section... Here's my way of acknowledging that...
The ones mentioned in Tamil script are the non fermented pankcake dosas. The current dosas that exist today are the ones that originated from Karnataka. Tamil nadu does not even have the concept of flat crispy dosas. Their dosas are think and fluffy. A better point to focus on would be that Karnataka has a ton of variety of dosas with each dosa specific to a district, something not present in Tamil Nadu. So why is it that the so called place of origin of dosa lacks the varieties that should have existed in the first place.
Bro you got to do the reaserch before u shit on something...sure you might like dominos pizza better than the one they make in Naples but it doesn't mean that dominos makes the best pizzas ...you have to decide it yourself after eating in atleast 15 palaces because the masala dose recipe in banglore is perfected to the T and it differs slightly from place to place , the average darshni dose tastes better than most the places in North India and for your information there are mor than 1000 darshinis in Bangalore.
i can bet that you people cant even make the same chutney thats being served in bangalore along with dosa and idly .😅
Sure each person has their own opinions and preferences but Bangalore is a place that definitely serves one of the best dosas and we have dosas from each district or region of Karnataka, providing not only flavour but variety. You guys definitely need to do better research before commenting on our beloved breakfast - honestly the whole city loves them and they are far better than all those white dosas available up north which “claim” to be dosas but are nothing more than under cooked batter
As a Mallu born and raised in B'lore, where my 'Mums dosa is the best' tagline flows, I concur.. nevertheless have eaten horrible beetroot masala dosas at Indian coffee houses in Kerala (their beef/chicken cutlets are not bad though) and Shezwan sauce filled bullcrap Mumbai dosas with watery chutneys.. You have specifically gone out on a limb dissing the dosa game of B'lore at your own peril.. though I prefer the thin crispy dosas of TN with their chutneys.. the next best are in Karnataka and you and your team should have given it more respect nonetheless...
The idlis started to look much smaller when Sid took a bite 😂😂😂 just Love you Forkers ❤
Forkers...u guys are amazing....love your feedback on the cuisines. Also love the fact that you guys don't mince words like other youtubers / influencers (who strut around giving their 2 cents when they don't even know the difference between jeera and Shahi jeera)
Thank you, we don't script things and keep it honest
Wonderful work u guys....keep it up!!! Loads of love and support
@@renooppo6713 gyyut6tt5tttrfğy5
Awesome guys...Keep it up.
Awesome vlog enjoyed watching. Full of humor and honest comments
The condiment served with neer dose is called as kai bella - jaggery mixed with coconut...
the other cup which had vegetable curry is called as saagu not sambhar
Thanks for letting us know. It was delicious
U guys are Underrated 🔥
Massively
Malgudi Days was directed by Legend of Kannada Film Industry ShankarNag and it was shot in Agumbe village Shivamogga District surrounded by rainforest of western ghats
Thanks for sharing that.
Since you guys really love Non Veg, you should give NE a try. Yes, going around to all the 7 states won't be possible, but Guwahati itself is like a metro with people from all over the NE and rest of India. Apart from the Assamese and other tribal food of Assam (Bodo, Mising, Singpho etc), you also get Naga, Manipuri, Nepali, Bengali etc. Have a hugh variety of fishes and pork is the most loved meat, especially the smoked pork 🤤. Chilli Smoked Pork dry fry is the best chakna with beer. We are basically meat & fish lovers paradise. Other than the huge variety of greens, some of which are often discarded as "junglee patte" by rest of the country.
We might not be using masala much, but we do know our herbs and roots and Bamboo Shoot. You have to try to know it.
In case you do decide to try out NE food, it's gonna be a long long season.
Absolutely love N.E food We would love to cover the region.
@@TheBigForkers just be wary of the Bhut Jolokia aka Raja Mircha aka King Chilly aka Ghost Pepper, that is used in many of our preparations. 😜
Apart from Pork, we also really really love our chillies including the bird eye and dhalle varieties too.
@@junaid42465 those are my favorite, have them in every shape and form at home
@@SidMewara 😍 oh wow! Now, I’m a much bigger fan of you, man!!!
You guys are just awesome!!!! Keep rocking!!!👍👍
Thank you so much 😀
I watched your Goa food trail and possibly tried most of your recommended places.
Hope you enjoyed it. Goa was shot a while back, plenty of new places and some legends we missed for many reasons.
@@TheBigForkers come back to Goa once again thats the place to have fun and relax. For us we r very nearby to Goa just 200 kms and come regularly. Hope to catch you guys next time in Goa.
@@SidMewara will meet you then
You guys are underrated and rightly so 😃
Glad you feel validated within the realm of your comment.
Isn't this Episode 7? 6 was WORST WURST right?
Damn, did we fuck this up
Worst only jokers
Sambar late entry and shanky sarcastly smiling to waiter and saying “Great on the Timing” hahahahahahha
Tum aur tumhaari nazar... Nirma super... 😁🍺
A crispy Masala dosa and a hot piping cup of filter coffee, best start to a day.
#Arsenal ♥️
Do delhi next 😊
Whenever you come across Hubli it's between Bangalore to Bombay try savji style nonveg food u will never ever forget the taste in ur life i promise. If you ever come pls let me know I will take you best place in Hubli.
Thank you so much
Come to Kerala guys next!!
Veena stores ❤ love the pluffy idly
Das Dosa- episode. Dossed out …;)
Scoop: Unique DNA: Equal Value & Review on Connections & Food 👌🏼
🇺🇸 Restaurants Review Waits…
Sid is my soul animal
Lets slay Dragons together
Bro, the production quality is so good. But most of the places you’ll go to are bad ones. Fire your r and d team lol and you’ll will do better!
Veena stores and CTR are bad?
@@deepakm8521 the last restaurant felt generic. Did you watch one of the previous episodes? They went to some dumb German restaurant.
@@Adijag Cafe Max is iconic. Not as good as its heyday but not a bad option at all. They were famous even 10 years ago when I first went there. Naati Cafe was a brilliant choice, I've eaten their food countless times and it truly is a gem. There were a few misses but I'm glad they are exploring other restaurants.
New Krishna Bhavan was good man
Deepak is right, we picked some legends, that were perhaps past their prime
even the normal idli looks like a button idli in sid's hands.
I keep saying its big, just looks small in my hands.
Awesome.........Any plan coming to Jaipur | Rajasthan?
Next time
Season 4 should be in Hyderabad
How long before did you guys shoot this?
Seems like almost a year old.
@@prabudhshetty5689 correct
16 months ago
Plzzzz we need RCB bar nd cafe review ♥️
Malleshwaram + Basavangudi = Malgudi still remains the most confident speculation of Sid and the generation of people who watches this video will believe that.
Lol people need that confidence.
Even though I am watching it after like 6 months, that low-day ke baal dialogue is still fresh
It's not speculation though
Please do a show on non veg breakfast options in Bangalore too and that too in east Bangalore
I know places which serve jhatka
I don't like the benne dosa at ctr too. But at vidyarthi bhavan, Davangere benne dose in RR nagar and at some small carts , sell some of the best dosas. Unfortunately you guys tried it at the wrong places in this episode.
Bro which planet are you from ctr is the bloody best
CTR didn't work for us. Sid here, I loved Horel Janardhan
Beg to differ, New Krishna was good for us.
The texture of the dosa isnt great at CTR. VIdyarthi bhavan and Janardhan hotel are way better.
@@shashankranganath5745 agreed
come to kottayam..Kerala..i think you guys will ave a great time.. of course you need to go to Kozhikode etc too..
Shanky will know better.. but if you have to hit the bars or drinking spots other than the classic toddy shops. its no more toddy to tell you the truth.. But i understand content..so all the best..but you must to classical Kottayam and the cuisine ..
Sid here, my ex,s family was from Kottayam. Great food there.
Second!
Machaans, come to Hyderabad
We will
@@TheBigForkers wow.. you guys actually replied.
@@TheBigForkers Please do let us know when you guys drop by.. would lice to meet you folks !!!
Go to any other city have dose and then come back to Bangalore and try it’s dose… then you will know it’s value …. Any small dsarshini in Bangalore can beat the doses around the world …
Sid really saves this episode. Shanks has for most of it a prejudiced palate and thats coming from most of the episodes he's ever reviewed. Playing the disinterested villain of this series pretty well
We think some folks are upset because Shanks shared his honest opinion about the dosa in Bangalore. Its ok for him to be honest and share that, and its okay for folks to take that sharing in anyways they feel comfy.
In Shank's defense, this opinion based based on his experience during the shoot and previous trips.
@@TheBigForkers Everyones entitled to their opinion for sure. For eg. the recent Korean restaurant, Shanks was okay with the way he came across without having prior knowledge about the food. Sid on the other hand has definitely had better south korean food before but the way he critiques it is entertaining, no extreme shitting on a place if he doesn't like it. (shot 16 months ago, covid still prevalent, restaurants still getting back to their best, the reviews do hurt them even more)
I guess its the places the producers chose this season just dips the quality a bit and they seemed quite icky throughout the season. Anyways, I love this show man, this season just seemed too hasty.
ps. Dont take shanky to a veg restaurant, he's hardwired to shit on it 😅
I think i genuinely liked some places and truly didn't think much about some places... But like i always said that's just me... Anyway thanks for taking the time to comment... Appreciate it... Hopefully next time round will be more up your speed... 😊
Come north karnataka broskis you'll enjoy and even your bowels
Thanks we will
Amazing video. Should have added some Kannada in the video.
This is Malleshwaram trail, not Bengaluru Trail, if you want real breakfast come to Basavanagudi, Chamarajapete, Jayanagar
Forkerss, please next stop HYDERABAD .
Weird combination, but I love to eat Idli with masala Pav and Sambar, grab the Idli like it's bhaji using the Pav and dip it in Sambar. It's better than butter chicken with fried rice for sure😋
I an sure it is, Shanks you reading this?
You shouldn't be allowed to roam around in the open. It's just too dangerous for the society.
New krishna bhavan is closed now
Yes we heard, it's a pity
Go to Hyderabad guys.
We are planning
House of Mandarin 😂😂😂😂😂
One thing for sure...next time no entry for Sid in "House of Manderin"!
Shank...you seemed to be on suicide mission...saying you din't like their Dosa...in a South state!🤣
People get killed man!
You are a Mallu...try saying that in your house 😉
Ha, fortune favours the brave
Food programs are something that we like to watch with the whole family . And even in this if expletives are used ..it makes it very uncomfortable when you have small kids around who would think using these words is the norm. Very very disappointing..and disheartening.
Not everything should be shared with kids. Dont get disheartened, just change the channel and watch this one without kids.
"L**de ka baal" merch coming soon after this episode
Hahaha we should
Do KERALA KERALA KERALA… or mangalore.
Nah Kerala is better😅
we will for sure
I think you guys are the first people who probably disliked CTR dose.
Sad that your host didn't tell about it that was favorite for Nehru, Indira Gandhi to everyone since then.
Yeah, also too greasy and probably hanging on to its fame because of time
Even I found CTR overrated. Lacked the sourness that a dosa needs. The masala dosa leaned a lot on the ghee and the masala for its flavours.
Sorry but where the fk else is Shanky gonna get better dosas? Lmao. Atleast Sid had the humility to give a context about not having a reference point. Im not even from Bangalore but benne dosas are literally butter dosas - like what else did he expect? quite based tbh
Hahaha, the hate is real and justified, Shanky I told you....
Yo! Pickles, Bangalore Dosa sucks nuts.
And your Sambar is so emotionless it makes me wanna drown myself in some Tamil Sambar.
Hahaha, I (sid) disagree, but this is such a funny comment. "drown myself in Tamil Sambar"
I don't see what you guys are so proud about in that dosa... Please explain this mad love for it... I don't think I'd defend even beef parottas from kerala to this extent... Haha... Every fckin household in all of south India makes a version of dosa... Why do blr folks take this immense pride in it... Dosas dont even originate in the region... They come from tamil nadu... Atleast the neutral historians have put that out there with proof... But anyway like i have my opinion...
@@shashankjayakumar4990 Literally said that I'm not from Bangalore and Im not just talking about benne dosas. Dosas have been integrated into blr breakfast culture. I could step into a darshini type joint around any locality and expect a crisp ass dosa that's richer than the average dosa in Tamil Nadu or Kerala. From my experience, dosas made in TN and KL households are way better than the ones you get outside. Egg dosas at chettinadu spots are an exception tho imo but that's different. So it's the convenience and an expectation of a minimum standard of sorts cause otherwise there's not much of a difference in dosas. TN annas be going up north too with the same recipes.
Dosa scene in Mumbai is good. Spread your dosa thin, add some schezwan sauce, add cheese, cut to small pieces, serve it hot with green chutney.
Cant make out if this is sarcasm Anil :)
@@TheBigForkers It SURE is ...
Thank you for saying it. Bangalore dosa game is not up to the mark
Lol where have you had better doses?
Everybody wants to have a unique or contradicting opinion now.
Lol far better than hand kerchief dosa from Tamil Nadu,
Masala dose itself is originated from Bangalore
Sid here, I liked New Krishna Bhavan, even the Idli was incredible. Mysore had some excellent Dosa as well
Hi Guys ..... might be i am too hard... to tell u ... please research the place ... before you visit.....i am also from Karnataka....end of the every bodys palate ..is different....
True, we do our research months/weeks/days in advance and local line producers also do the ground work. Every now and then we change things in the last minute. But a lot of thought goes into picking a spot.
Sid have you lost weight?
Finally someone noticed :)
luvvvve de ke baaaal......Bangalore dosa's are best man.....get some emery paper and scrape your tongue and wake up those dead taste buds
Hahahaha
Forkers -- Before you crap on the "HEALTHY" stuff, ask the dude on the more heavier side to stop breathing heavy into the cam after taking 4 steps. Just saying...
Who hurt you?
The big forker did … rofl !! Lmao on the stupidity of people who take comments seriously 🤣
Sid here. I was like what the fuck after seeing myself on the video. So, you make a fair point, this video was about 20 kilos ago.
@@SidMewara I was just kidding dude.. love you guys' work. Love the honesty in some of your comments. PS: Totally agree on the 5 and 6 AM biriyani hype at some bangalore joint .. who the fuck eats that much rice and spice at 6?
You guys need to come to Kolkata for a real food tour... No offence to the other cities...
Love Cal, it's gotta happen
i will not agree that we bangalore dont have the best dosa, first thing u people have tried the dosa in wrong places , there are particular places where u can get the best dosa, i can challenge that the dosa u will get in vidharthi bhavan and chikkanna tiffin room and slv hotel in gandhi bazar serves are the best in the world. this breakfast trail episode is a complete flop. please do good research about the hotel and the best dishes that are being there before tasting . thank you
I am from Andhra , I don't like Bangalore Dosas.
So screw your Andhra chutney and have dosa and put chilly topping all around the table and eat
hahahaha, the Dosa love/hate is real
@@TheBigForkers You bet guys..Thanks again for all your episodes
@@Rock9175 ok will do that gladly
@@saitirupati7997 appreciate it..So remain in your zone and fun.. Don't come to Karnataka to have dosa simple..
Shanky should stop visiting vegetarian eateries .. Totally nonsensical comments on Bangalore Dosas... Feed him stale meat and he goes wowwww....
He has his opinions
I'll say wow when i meet you I promise... 😁
Anybody assuming to judge Dosas of Bangalore or Karnataka is basically trying to teach about Pizzas to Italians and Parathas to Punjabis. Don't know who gave this guy some whacky idea that Idli Dosa Vada is South Indian, they're not, they're purely a Karnataka product. They weren't invented in the 1850s, but were already there in the 12th century for sure and probably centuries before that. And Karnataka was a bigger region so the others picked up. So when you wanna know what a Dosa should be, just have the dosa here and accept whatever it is. Any other form you like, good for you, you surely have the right to enjoy your bastardized dosa.
If you're not yet convinced then we don't mind analysing the dosa so thread bare that you would forget you had a dosa on your life. Just who calls the Alu inside the Dosa as Masala? The Masala is a North Indian word used for the red chutney that's smeared on Masala Dosas which the Masala Dosa inventor in Udupi gladly used. When basic knowledge of any food is lacking why the tamasha?
We eat Dosas here as staple food even the ragi dosa much before any hotel would make it just decades ago, so we do know very well what we invented and we live on everyday in & out! This is the one of the most preposterous ignorant food criticisms I've come across among RUclips vloggers!
Shanky is Mallu and has his opinions on Dosa.
Sid doesnt know about South Indian food and didnt make any claims, instead he gave very clear disclaimers and quite liked the dosas. CTR was an extra level of greasy.
The red chutney smeared is a Mylary Dosa and is not from Udipi, but Mysore.
We know people would get upset about someone sharing their opinions, so bring it on.
@@TheBigForkers I understand the info hazards that you guys face, since food can be a very touchy subject anywhere. But the extent of fundamentals being horrifyingly wrong is shocking to let go.
Mylari Dose? Who's that? Are you out of your blistering mind, those guys are some nice Dose makers. There's no such thing as a Mysore Dosa let alone Mysore Masala Dose and to boot Mylari Dose is a Sagu Dose not Masala. Mysore Masala is a Bombay concoction there's no such thing in Karnataka & Mysore. The only Dose to have a place name is Davangere & of late something called as the Mulbagal Dose. Check out Kripal Ammana's episode on the Udupi masala dose story where for heaven's sake he has clarified about this.
It is precisely this millennial RUclips vlogger gibberish that we want to dispel quickly before it does more damage. This has become a huge menace of late with millennial hipster kids and semi naturalized migrants making half baked food vlogs & promoting their own fiction. Who the heck tells you Veena stores is an icon when I had cousins and nephews being born next door in Lakshmi maternity home from the early 90s. They were just small condiment store nobody even realised existed and voila just 5-6 years ago they're some iconic idli joint! For heaven's sakes the real icons from nearly 100 years ago are disappearing like the Brindavan, Ullas, Sangam or the Victoria... All gone. The only iconic ones around are the Airlines, The Indian coffee House or the Koshy's, Janatha, Janardhan, MTR, Udupi Sri Krishna Bhavan(Balepet) NMH etc, did you see these on your hipster list?
Today a 25 year old Shivaji military hotel is touted as a 80 year old icon and we're shocked he was just a shack 10 years ago. But RUclips clowns have cooked up a century old legacy and the owner obviously is laughing all the way to the bank, same with Veena. The truth is earlier eating out was frowned upon and grannies used to mutter what those guys from whatever caste might have added God knows what!? This is the origin of Brahmin hotels in Karnataka. I've been eating out since early 80s, so please I do know my hotel menu as also our home food stuff which is very different from the hotels and every home and town in Karnataka makes it's own variation and there's no standard to it. If your production & research teams wanna know local food ask the food industry seniors or senior locals not the ADD afflicted illiterate digital millennials.
While I totally concur with your take on the Cafe Max thing since the guys who took over from the late Alex Schorlemmer have really done it to the ground. Alex was a very tidy German chap who married an local Tamil girl and started his neat little German cafe eponymously named as Cafe Schorlemmer in Max Mueller Bhavan in the early 90s with delicious banana cakes and apple pies. Then changed the lovely German place to Cafe Max 2 decades later and then passed away. His widow I guess sold it to the present owners who just aren't worth the old fame.
And Yes please tell that self annointed Mallu Dosa expert to learn some manners, coz of you wanna roast the townspeople you're guest visiting, be like Russell Peters. Know your game and be spot on, if not it can go South very badly. I've no comments on Sid 👍🏻. You're into food reviewing not in making pathetic ill advised wise cracks of Indian places. Leave that to AIB... Now if you want me to bring more on, I don't mind doing it in person, since I'm old Town kid and can really appraise you on the town game & history to an good extent though there are greater older experts who you don't even bother with. These are very disappointing feedbacks on what can be a really good channel.
@@chandansatyanarayan2760 no one ever claimed half the stuff you are trying to dispel. You seem to be in a war of words and thoughts on your lonesome.
I went to Airlines, Janardhan, New Krishna and loved the food there. But that's my choice. Shanky has the right to his views and express how he feels.
It's not the first time we have ruffled feathers, won't be the last.
@@chandansatyanarayan2760 Millenial and Hipster list...hahaha
TBF hipster is an oxymoron.
We take a wide mix of data across food writers, food historians etc. and then decide where to shoot depending on conditions. This shoot being 16 months ago as places were just opening.
Kripal only shoots there, obviously will know more. We don't make vlogs, it's a TV show with a season shot in 15 days.
@@SidMewara Sid that was sweeping statement your pal made and I'm updating your team about the present RUclips food review scenario. Not claiming you guys said all that. Seems like you guys are thin skinned when you guys get personal, lonesome, what's that buddy. I believe I'm in my rights to appraise guys who have far reaching audiences when they're way off track. And please be sure to enjoy your far better life... TC 👍🏻.
Eat it in vidyarthi Bhavan MTR for dose
A crispy Masala dosa and a hot piping cup of filter coffee, best start to a day.
