- Rannaghore Ke? is a fun adda with old and new friends about food, life and everything else. This is episode 8 with Rahul Arora, who ran the Bon Appetit cafes in Kolkata, which had branches in Hazra and Salt Lake, successfully for 13 years. He now bakes, and cooks small batches of curated menus on weekends.
In this episode, Rahul talks about his childhood, and growing up in a Punjabi household in Kolkata. Rahul is himself not at all an orthodox cook. In his curated Punjabi menus, especially, he demonstrates how food can be rooted in tradition and family history, and still have room for personal, modern, practical touches.
Enjoy the recipes Rahul teaches us: desi murga curry (with country-chicken), and a khatti-meethi pumpkin sabzi, which he then turns into a raita and a pulao!

I'm British and learned to cook in Kerala twenty years ago. I now cook desi Indian cuisine in the UK and have built a business around my passion for real Indian cuisine. Thank you for speaking English, very much appreciated. Great recipes and a very charismatic chef
He is such a great storyteller! He is breathing heavily - please take care of your health, Rahul.
I loved this from the word go. You could tell 2 seconds into it that Rahul is a warm, funny, knowledgeable, genuine, lovely character. And the Punjabi-Bengali combination was fascinating to watch. Loved what he said about LGBT rights needing to be in a restaurant’s internal memos, not just on social media.
And now he’s going to hate me for saying this … but it genuinely worried me to see how out of breath he was. Rahul if you’re reading, you’re too awesome to be this out of breath. We want to see you around for a long time.
If Rahul is reading this, then he should know that we really want Bon Appetit back in salt lake! The happiest memories of after school and tuition hours were spent there. What a walk down memory lane to just see him here on your channel. 🤍
This episode brings a lot of memories. I am meeting Rahul for the first time through your channel but Rahul's food is not new to me. I used to work at Salt Lake and his Bon Appetit cafe was right beside our office. I was fresh from village, new to the city of Kolkata and naive about the cuisine of sandwiches, pastas and even decorative noodles. :P
Price was affordable if we share the food among colleagues. And Rahul's chefs were generous in using cheese which made his cute, little restaurants an instant hit among us. Those were the days of innocence, less office pressure and pure friendship. Rahul's food played a silent role in making everything yummy and cozy then. Thanks for hosting Rahul. :)
Rahul is not only a fantastic chef, but he's also an amazingly sweet and lively human being.
This was such a fun episode to watch 😃please bring him back on the show sometime
Wow nice cooking. But chop korte korte chule e hath dicche ota ocd trigger korar moto 😂
What an amazing guy. Loved listening to his experiences as much as his cooking.
Loved the devotion towards cooking food from start to the end, no short cuts❤
The whole episode is so mouthwatering. And He is such a nice person. Loved the epoisode. So much diverse yet so much compact❤
সবথেকে সুন্দর এপিসোড রান্নাঘরে কে সিরিজে। কত কথা যে একেবারে আমার মনের থেকে তুলে নিয়ে বলা এখানে। খুব সুন্দর এপিসোড..❤️❤️❤️❤️
I'm huge fan of Rahul. He exudes such positive vibes in all his videos. Thank you for hosting him .🙏🏼
I knew neither about Rahul nor about Bon Appetit before watching this video. Yet felt an instant connection with this heart warming episode and its 'hero'. Was glued to the screen for its entire duration. Thank you so much Bong Eats for bringing this to us.
P.S. Respect how you do not hesitate to promote what you believe in (no matter how high the stakes are) - be it your stance on CAA/NRC or your sensitivity towards the LGBTQIA+ community.
This single episode has so much content, that I needed to watch it twice to catch every part of it
It's great to see the episode on his birthday ❤ Happy Birthday Chef !!! He makes India's best butter chicken and brownies😊 A huge fan of the Chef and the person
Loved the narration of an amateur turning into a pro chef and the passion of cooking
How fabulous. Thank you!! This was a terrific episode.
I made that Khatta Meetha Kaddu Ki Sabji/Tok Mishti Kumror Torkari/Sweet and Sour Pumpkin Curry today. I also added hing as he mentioned. Seriously it turned out so good. Thank you! Very simple yet delicious
Great ! A new episode of Rannaghore Ke. Just the thing we were waiting for.
Oh my god, This is undoubtedly the bestest episode of Rannaghore Ke!!! Loved how he talks, a great storyteller indeed. & & So many different shades of pumpkin !!!!! I would love to grab a ladle of that Sabzi with 5-6 fulko luchi 😅😅😅 and definitely will try the recipe of "Pepper Chicken Bhuna" next weekend. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

A hairband would help Mr. Rahul to keep his hair in place
He heard you at 8:49 but took it off for coffee break.
Thanks for bringing to us such a heartwarming episode. The pumpkin recipes look delicious. Will try!
I can ignore the fantastic cooking and just listen to Rahul talk. Give the man a podcast already!!
Didn't even realize when the video ended, I was completely immersed into it. Felt like i was hanging out and learning with ya'll 😂❤ another great episode.
So glad to see Rahul!! His cafe used to be our haunt during Presi days. I love every bit of his food. He brings tonnes of memories back. Love you Rahul.
Finally got to see you in person. Keep sharing your great recipes with us. Love from a Bengali staying in Bangalore.

This is one of the best episodes of rannaghore ke? ❤
I live near Hazra, Bhowanipur to be exact and all during my school and college life Bon Appetit was my go to place. I used to be a avid visitor up until it closed. I remember visiting the place after covid only to realize the outlet has shut down.. my tastebuds still remember the finger-licking taste of meatball pizza, chicken pockets, grilled sandwich and the oh-so delicious chocolate avalanche... Ahh, what a pity :)
I was perhaps the saddest person when Bon Appetit shut down🥺. The chocolate avalanche was the best!!
What a lovely episode ❤
Absolutely brilliant! Well done!
Oh my god, my entire teenage life was Bon Appetite, my first ever date. It's my fondest memory. I miss this place.
I miss bon appetite 😢.. This will be my fav episode.. reminded me of my dadi.. how we use to see homes back in days with sauces, chips and pickles being made at homes. I love pumpkin but never tried this version.. Definitely trying soon .. it will be a blessing for busy moms 😂.. Thank you for this episode
Excellent ...was so entertaining watching our chef ...bless you 😊
The chef talks so well. I would any day prefer him watching cook and talk. It's not even trash talk but everything what he conveyed has information about food and life in general.

This is a bestest episode in রান্নাঘরে কে? I'm late to watching this.... Rahul, sir Please take care of your health....
দিদি, মনে হচ্ছে ইউটিউবের ভিতরে ঢুকে আপনাদের সাথে খানা-পিনায় জয়েন দি। অসাধারণ রান্না হয়েছে অসাধারণ বাবুর্চির সাথে, এই নিয়ে কোন সন্দেহ নেই।
Episode ta darun hoyeche ❤❤❤
We have this khatta mitha petha with puri ❤match made in heaven
Thou art the most articulate lads I have come across aloof of the disillusionment steaming across youtube
Great food, but sotti bolle, loved the conversation around it. Felt like I'm present there.
A True Blue Cook. Location Agnostic Master of the skills. Full power boss 😊
He is an entertainer ...watched this 3 times
Nice guy. I like him :)
Could you please share where you bought the mortar n pestle from?
Excellent video and it brings back the good old days.
Kindly can anyone let me know, how to order these curated dishes from Rahul Sir... Big fan
Awaiting reply...
Thank you so much for cogently critiquing the pomposity of the capitalist gimmick that robs the significance of queer standpoint in many dimensions sir. Inclusivity and acceptance should come from the core of collective consciousness. ❤️ ❤️
excellent episode ❤
sometimes if I put a little more heeng then the taste is very strong and even a little bitter I would say any tips around that? really nice episode btw
Best guest . ❤
This guy…just goes on and on and on..even so you need to put a ‘fin’ on screen. And the fun part is we as audience are still listening to him jabbering away😂
Rahul Arora is also good at dancing
