Eating Dosas from the Famous Dosa Man in NYC

- I eat at the legendary NY Dosas from the popular food cart in Washington Square Park of New York City. Thiru Kumar, better known as, The Dosa Man, serves up some of the best dosas in NYC. Lines for this vegan Indian street food cart are long, and I decide if it’s worth it and lives up to the hype.

About Me:
I live in NYC and I’m about food, travel and work.
The way he eats the dosa got the south Indian in me screaming 😂😂
I unfortunately don't have a lot of experience eating dosas, but I'm learning.
@@Jamesnuit's very easy, you break a piece of dosa and dip it in either chutney or sambar or even both and have it😄
@@ganeshm6782 Absolutely!
The half eaten plate look bad
He is eating like burgur
You ate Dosa like a Pizza and drank Sambar like a soup. You are a legend 😂😂.
Haha! Thank you!
lol
😂
Not like pizza but like a Frankie 😊
@@pankaj29904 Yeah.
Dosa Man is proud of the fact that because of this dosa, his daughter got a good education in America and graduated, what could be better than this for every father, thank you for sharing this video with us.🙏🙏love from India.
Thank you so much for watching!
ok so why eulogize him...he sells you carbs and makes money...good for him...and not so good for those who consume
@@rayc7671 wow, someone don't even know whatis dosa but commenting about it. search google, what dosa is made of? an its benefits? WHO statement about dosa? then you comment it is carb or bad etc.
@@rayc7671those carbs are simple and healthy for body , whereas a burger or pizza does more damage to body .
@@ankushverma8625 carbs are carbs simple complex . Also the video is about dosa so why mix up .. rice sugar milk is all fattening .. coconut too .. also the batter is fermented which bloats the grains of rice by default it’s not good for the body - what’s healthy?
Dosa has transcended from being south Indian to Indian cuisine, as I belong to Northern part of India and haven't found a single person who doesn't love Dosa. Masala Dosa is ❤
It's great food!
sorry I don't...
i hate aloo. onion ravva dosa is the best
@@Jamesnuyeah its healthy also bro
@@divyanshu7108 That's another good thing!
Actually it's not a soup... You should dip that dosa into the sambar and have it... It will be great... Seeing a South Indian food in NYC is amazing.. Keep up man... Love from India
Absolutely! Thanks for the information and thanks for watching!
Hail dosa leajendry can’t believe people quue fr his dosa
Yes and you can also drink Sambhar like a soup too. Both ways are perfectly fine.
Sambar for Tamils
Chutney for Telugus
@@ramaraksha01 In North we say Sambhar and then there is Naariyal (coconut) chutney and Tamatar (tomato) chutney.
Never saw anyone eat dosa like an egg roll 😂
New style of eating dosa ❤
i think Mr. tirth kumar himself made dosa in a way can be ate like egg roll because it is necessery for him to adapt to american style for growing his buisness
The best part is that the ingredients are 100% healthy unlike the pasta or pizza dough or hamburger buns. The "sambhar" that you call lentil soup is what we also add to boiled rice as a part of our regular meals. The other thing is that you get all the necessary amino acids without consuming any form of meat.
Indeed. It's a meal that you feel good about eating and it's tasty too!
@@JamesnuMouth wateringly tasty From Delhi.
@@arunanand2809 Thank you!
Full of carbs..whats healthy...pls stop this over healthy nonsense
1 ladle of sambhar has negligible protein
India has so much to offer to the World. No wonder almost every other RUclipsr come across India related content a day or another.
Also, the Dosa look so so fresh almost like a salad.
Indeed!
That guy is a legend...loved the scale of the plate, what an immense portion. I don't think I'd ever enjoy a vegetarian meal as much as this, based on looks alone. I never had it. I think I should.
Oh yeah! It's definitely worth the wait! The food is fresh, nice and tasty and is a sizeable portion! Plus, it's probably healthier than a lot of the stuff I normally eat too.
@@Jamesnu it is healthier
And chutney is absolutely necessery.
@@recipesandsongs8050 Definitely!
@@recipesandsongs8050 It sure is!
Wonderful how the colors in the food harmonized with the backdrop of the verdant leaves, blue skies, and red brick buildings. I had a tough week last week and had to travel for a memorial service...so happy to find you posted a new video that gave me joy and some much-needed perspective. Thank you for the goodness you give.
I'm sorry to hear about your week and hope things improve. Thank you for the wonderful compliment!
so you hogged the carbs while on a memorial service....
Oh dosa, idli, vada , Puri are morning breakfast for southern indians 😊
I am glad that you enjoyed it love from Telangana India 🇮🇳
Thank you! It was very good!
@@Jamesnu pls do visit our country India only for experience
@@abishekwillie I definitely will travel to India one day.
@@JamesnuIndian food are very spicy and tasty you must try kachori chole kulche dahi bhalla❤
@@JaiVeerSinghJi Thank you for the recommendation!
Feels so nice to see Indian food being appreciated in the West😊
It's getting more popular here.
Indian food is huge in places like Texas due to the huge Indian diaspora
People lining up for dosas and waiting for their turns. Such discipline! Something you will never witness in my india ! Proud 😶
People don't wait for dosa here😂
there wud be a chaos here😂
Thiru Kumar is a NYC legend, a truly nice dude. The coconut chutney is amazing
Absolutely! His street cart is iconic and his food is amazing!
@@Jamesnu Probably, you had like to buckle up roaming shirtless in around Temples in South India and only wear the silver ribbon border pure white veshti down below. Oooh! it is so comfy. You will forget wearing all T-shirts and pants for that matter.
@@richdollarleads Interesting! Thank you! I appreciate the information!
James it so nice of you to try our South Indian food and generously praise. The pricing is great to have the delicacy filling our stomach!
It was really good food!
I'm from the North side of India and even I have to say that is the first time I'm seeing someone eat dosa like that 😂 Understandable but still quite eye-catching 😅 Hope you visit India sometimes and go to the south part of India and eat dosa there Indian style.
I definitely want to travel to India sometime and eat its amazing food!
That's still okay I guess because I have seen few special ones eating dosa with fork and knife. 😂😂😂😂
@@thecomment9489 yeah yeah i saw , i tried once and ruined my dosa
This is awesome never had dosa will definitely try it soon. This is one reason why I like NYC! Thanks for the video.
Thanks for watching! Yeah, dosas are really good and satisfying! I wish that there were more places that served them.
Shared this my daughter in NY. Love from India
Thank you!
I wish I were as proud & passionate as this man with his work. You are too! 🌞
The Dosa Man seems to really enjoy his job.
There is a beautiful business concept that we notice besides the wonderful dosas. The part where you mention how the DosaMan continues his enterprise in person, is what the owner's personal touch does to business. Today's business gurus would cringe at calling this even a business as he does all the work instead of having employees serving customers. They would call it self employment at best.
However, the most important thing is that many guys like DosaMan are more in love with their job and the recognition it brings than the profit or wealth.
Exactly! He's really nice and meeting him is a great part of the experience.
I love coming along older vids! So cool, and delicious I'm sure! I'll try next time I'm downtown!
Thanks! Yeah, it's one of the best food carts!
I just had it yesterday : ) I loved dipping the green sauce with the dosas. Agree, next time I will go spicy as well, medium was not to much kick. Can't wait to go back and try the pancake one. It was incredible and so unique.
Nice! Yeah, I definitely wanted more spice, but the flavor was excellent!
Pancake one is called " Uttapa" 😂❤
@@sushonfire Thank you! That one sounds good!
green sauce with dosa?
Must be green chutney.
May be made of coriander
or curry leaves.
Definitely! The Dosa is such a wholesome food....fresh & crisp! Served hot and all set to charge u up! Thanks for sharing this James! High five!! ✋
Thanks for watching!
Thanks James! Thanks youtube for recommending James and our favourite NY Dosa Cart.♥️
Thanks for watching! I really appreciate it!
Well you look pleased as punch😄I'm glad you enjoyed the meal that was worth the wait👌😎 Dosa man you rock👍
Oh yeah! I was very happy!
Thank you for making this video. You have explained so well.
Thank you!
Just a tip, You should not eat a masala Dosa like a Shawarma. Take a bit of Dosa with it's potato masala, Dip it in chutney and Sambaar and then have it! Yumm! :D
Thanks for the tip! I appreciate it!
enough of patronizing
Hi James. It seems that spring suits you very well. Thanks to your videos, we have the opportunity to get to know other culinary cultures. Great job, you are a refined promoter of nyc, its people and its customs.
Thank you! Those are some very kind words! I really appreciate it!
It's not an appetizer it's called sambar and it's also a dip just like coconut Chutney. I'm happy to see that u enjoyed having Indian food. I suggest you to try some more Indian food u may love them too...
Thank you! Yes, I definitely plan to try a lot more Indian food and visit more Indian restaurants!
every indian notice the first thing you mentioned above, thanks for info and @jamesnu will try next time and he may enjoy the right way to eat indian food :)
In India, Noodles, Sandwiches, French Fries, Pizza And Burger are called cheats, and junk food. All the time No non-vegetarian, only pure vegetarian food - Dosa, Idli, Medu Wada, Gujarati Phoolka Roti or as it is called in Gujarati "Rotli", Dal, Vegetables, Rice is the real meal. @@Jamesnu
samosa was the appetizer ...people don't even have listening skills and trying to write long comments teaching and preaching
Thank you for the video James, Dosae is really everyone's fav. Have it and eat it ANY way you like.
Thank you!
Great video bro .
Keep doing .
Explanation and everything is great .
Keep going 💪
Thank you so much!
M from south India. This is mostly our daily breakfast.. nice to see these foods being enjoyed by people around the world!! And yes.. dosas are perfectly healthy and you have em every single day!
Thank you for watching!
Hi, I came back! I went to South America for months for travel haha. Good to see you again :) That Indian street food looks so good!
That's awesome! I hope you enjoyed your trip! Yeah, the food was so good!
He is from sri Lanka
That is staple diet. Not street food, no. That is a regular meal. We eat Dosa everyday. Anna is having his cart on the street. Oops Sorry - It does not mean that is street food.
Will surely visit this place if i ever come to New York. Nice to see people appreciating the hard work of the dosa man.
It's definitely worth a visit!
Congrats on 17K subscribers, James! Just going back to view earlier videos, and saw this with almost 1 million views! It was brilliant to stir up this dosa eating controversy. I bet you knew the proper eating method all along!
Thank you! Haha! Yeah, anything to get people talking gets the views!
You showed us the American style of eating a dosa 😅. Happy to see that you enjoyed it 👍👍. I see you have already got a lot of suggestions on "how to eat a dosa" in the comment section. So i avoided saying the same thing. I can guarantee that next time you will be having the dosa in the most proper form 😎👍
Thank you! It was very tasty and now I know another way of eating a dosa for my next visit.
Wow what a beautiful day and such delicious food!
It was the perfect day to eat a nice dosa!
Incredible to see South Indian Dosas make it way to the Big 🍎.I'm glad that you enjoyed it.
Thank you! It was delicious!
I live in a Pakistani neighborhood and even pakistanis now enjoy our Dosas, Idlis etc
Poor guys their breakfast is just puri with halwa
South Indian breakfast foods are the best in the world!
@@ramaraksha01 It's really great food!
The only thing that matters is that you love the food you are eating and you were doing that. Kudos!
Thank you! It was delicious!
Hats off to him, for serving such a huge crowd. And making dosas by standing for the whole time is a real task.. Which shows his dedication.. Serving good food is simply serving supreme ..🫶🏻🫰🏻
Absolutely! Everyone in NYC really likes and appreciates the Dosa Man.
Hello! Nice to see you enjoying dosas. Just a tip, Dosa isn’t eaten like a burrito, you have to tear a piece off with one hand and dunk it into the chutney or Sambar or both. So you eat it in bite sized pieces. The Sambar is like a dip and a bit strong on its own. In India we eat with our hands & wash our hands clean before and after meals. You can definitely improvise however you like though. Also just FYI, Dosa is pronounced with a soft d.. like Tho-sa
Indeed! Thank you for the information! I'll keep it in mind the next time I have a dosa.
@Jamesnu Next time try dosa with chicken or mutton curry.
lovely review!! I would love to try this!❤
Thank you! Yeah, it was so good!
Glad that many people get to enjoy dosa. One of my fav breakfast
It's great food! I wish more places sold it in NYC.
U people are so lucky to have it and here I am drooling🤤 but nice 1 good video
Thank you! Yes, we're very luck to have such delicious food here in NYC especially from the legendary Dosa Man!
Whatever his style of cooking you need to give it to this man for his sheer passion and longevity on what he has done!!👌
Indeed!
You must complete that meal with filter coffee ! Another legendary coffee from South India...!!!!
Next time I will.
@@Jamesnukindly, try kumbakonam degree coffee man ...
@@sowmiyaganapathi9264 Thank you for the recommendation!
Love America! You can find foods from every single country on the planet. Dosas are amazing!!
Absolutely! There's a lot of great food here and good dosas.
its supposed to be eated with breaking the bread just like naan and the ndipped in chatnies and then sambar with an additional spoon(modern reproduced culture mix he he) with an addition of pav to samosa is a great tinge and twist to it
4:39 both are taken simultaniously if the sambas is present with dosa and the chatni hehe if left.......then drunk entirely
Yes, thank you!
Just came back from our NYC trip 3 days ago. Can you do a deep dive into Chelsea Market food scene. I loved it there. Thanks again for your restaurant reviews. We checked one off your list.
Thanks always for watching! I hope you had a good trip! Yeah, I'll probably do something incorporating the Chelsea Market in the future. I really like Very Fresh Noodles and Miznon there!
Well, now we can tell why The Dosa Man is so famous, man. How can we not be enticed when it's the best dosa you've ever eaten? That really looks a great plate for the price, too. We'd stand in line for as long as it takes and order ours medium too -- just in case you were curious! You just look so happy eating it -- makes us smile just watching. Thanks for taking us on this fantastic food journey -- it's gonna be fun living vicariously through you! NYC is basically the food capital of the entire universe, after all.
Thanks for watching! Indeed, the wait is worth it! It's truly a great plate of food!
That calls you to bring yourself to Matunga East in Mumbai where you get to eat the best dosas at King's Circle in many South Indian restaurants. And that calls you to go to Kanyakumari. And Madurai! Of Course! I guess!@@Jamesnu
I eat Dosa at home since almost every day from the past 2 months.
@@richdollarleads Thank you! I hope I get to eat there!
lol. all is right but NYC is a food capital??? Come to Bharat( former name- India) Here any small city will surpass any city you think is a food capital in taste, variety, quality and quantity wise i bet
That was a real beautiful day. Awesome place to have a Dosa.
Indeed! Eating outside was perfect!
The way you ate the dosa was so cute. Keep up the good work!!
Haha! Thanks!
Loved the way you ate masala dosa like a burrito
Haha! Thanks! I don't have a lot of experience eating dosas.
Bro that's a dosa not a burrito 😂 Anyways happy to see you enjoy our South Indian cuisine
Absolutely! It was delicious!
True y is he eating it like a burito
😂😂😂
Feels so weird yet satisfying seeing a long queue for a street stall
He's extremely popular!
You will have to come quite often at this place , on and on in the future !!❤
I definitely want to visit again.
Indians favourite food ❤️.. Luv this video brother... Keep going.. Have a nice day🙏
Thank you!! I appreciate it!
that`s a pretty long line, Andrew. Greetings from Europe and have an amazing summer:)
Thank you! Yeah, the line is long, but it's worth the wait!
Kudos to you for trying it out, most of the indian "snack" food is always eaten with accompaniments, thats basically the point, to combine flavors
Thank you!
Well done. Good to see you enjoy dosa. Its a good snack . I was in mysuru for 2 months in 2023. Ate dosa every day. But other food options are not easy to find in mysuru. NY has lot of food joints 😮
It was an excellent dosa! Indeed, there's lots of great food in NYC.
Proud of you for not pointing and laughing at the poor souls that were still in line as you ate your food!
Haha! I try to be nice!
If you once come to the place you also wait as a poor soul lol
@@ajithkumarN-od9sf The wait is worth it in the end at least.
9$ masala dosa 😮
9$ indian Rs. 740 😂
It’s in nyc
Totally enjoy watching your videos James...such perfect communication with your audience...wish you well and hope you find your own Paris H. compatible.
Please note this is not me hitting on you.....I:m old enough to be your Grandmother
Thank you so much! I really appreciate it!
Haha! I got it!
Dosa can be dipped in Sambar like the coconut chutney for extra flavour. Dosa is healthy food to have.
Love you man. .I'm from India. .my daily breakfast is dosa.
Thank you so much! I love dosas too!
Big thumbs up to the man for promoting vegetarian food in abroad.
It was very good food!
Glad to know you enjoyed them
It was really good!
Good to see the plate clean !! Full marks 😊👍
Thank you! It was delicious!
Tip to have a perfect indian food (goes well with 90% of Indian foods) : mix all of em in the plate
Btw nice video brother
Thank you and thanks for the tip!
nice vlog and dosa look amazing . 1 correction sambhar is drink after bite of dosa or you can dip into it and take bite.
Thank you! I'll try that next time with the sambhar!
Nice way to eat dosa , definitely gonna try it 😘❤
Thank you!
An Idly, or Dosa with sambar and 5 or more different chutney with medhu vada in a good hotel is a heaven as a Vegan. I couldn't live without these Idly, Dosa and poori. My day won't finish without eating this as a South Indian.
Nice! That's great food!
My favorite is Pesarattu or Pesara dosa - that is from Andhra in South India - it is the best Dosa. Sadly it is not as popular than the others that most establishments have
I would like to try that dosa sometime.
Pesarattu goes very well with upma.
@@Aratiii06 Thanks for the recommendation!
As an Indian .... The way you eating dosa get me crying 😭😭
Sorry. I haven't eaten many dosas before, but it was so good!
@@Jamesnu nahhh don't worry
*Oh god not that way to eat it's not bread*
James, I can't cry because your humility is so good! so so good! @@Jamesnu
@@richdollarleads Thank you!
Looks tasty❤ good you enjoyed delicious dish 👍
It was delicious!
Love it,,,as a indian love a lot this....
Even as North Indian I got hurt the way he handles the dosa 😅
Looks really good…I bet one with meat would be so good but would definitely like to try this vegan one
Yeah, there would be so many different kinds of meat and fillings that would be awesome inside the dosa!
@@Jamesnu man my wife and me are plannin on flyin up that way next few months…as of right now can u go wherever u wanna go and eat where u want to without having to be masked up?
@@brodypilcher3643 Yep, there's no mask or vaccination requirements for restaurants now. I hope you enjoy your trip!
@@Jamesnu man that sounds good thanks buddy
It is not supposed to be that way. I have never heard of Dosa like that. Don't spoil the dosa. Nah!
Craving dosa early in the morning 😭 I'm happy that people are liking our south Indian food because yes it's so delicious it deserves the hype
It's really good and getting to be more popular here!
Love the way you ate the dosa James!!! ❤😅
Thank you!
I never ate dosha like that. Now I know something new.
Thanks for watching!
How to Eat South Indian Dosa:- you should not Bite it instead you should take a Piece of Dosa and Dip it to the Sambar and Coconut Chutney then Put the Dosa to your Mouth..it's the Combination of Dosa Chutney and Sambar...👍😁😄
Absolutely! Thank you for the tip!
NIce to see how you eat Dosa, like any other wrap. 😍. And with each bite you should add a pinch of coconut chutney & Samber. Its a combination you should eat to get taste explode in your mouth. 😊
Thank you!
nice content man appriciate you
keep growing
Thank you! I appreciate it!
Our indian food is always great 🔥🔥🔥🔥👌👌👌👌👌
It's amazing!
@@Jamesnu Tq
bro every food is great depends upon u that how much hungry are u
You made me want to go out and eat dosa😂 m from India and i love South Indian food . South Indian food is all vegan and is suitable for all people who eat gluten or not .
Nice! South Indian food is great!
Hi James, it's dough-say. I am a Sri Lankan born Australian. Thank God, we don't have to line up for our dosas. Many thanks for highlighting ethnic food !
Thanks for watching! I appreciate it!
Pondicherrian - South India, we are proud to mention our Masala dosa in your speech. As our PM MODJI final words Thanks! Thanks a lot
As the same, Mr. James, please reveal about the Masala Poori of our South Indian breakfast all the times
Other reason to be in NYC ❤️
Absolutely! It's a must visit!
it's indian food you will never get like this food all over the world ❤👌👌👍🙏🙏
It's really great food!
I’m glad you liked and enjoyed dosa… you should see South Indian eating dosa.. it’s a different way you get the taste out of all the dip.
Thank you! Next time I have a dosa, I'll be eating it a bit differently.
Welcome to India my friend, great taste every were 👍👍
Thank you!
There is not a particular way to eat dosa, eat it as you like to have it 🤘
Exactly! It was delicious!
In India all of that food is under $1. Hope prices get cheaper in NYC.
Yeah, NYC is pretty expensive.
You should try idli, it's made with fermented batter which has good bacteria. It's light and fluffy. We get similar masala dosa for 1 dollar here in India.
Thank you for the recommendation!
❤waw good to hear you liked Dosa taste
It was very good!
I visted New York this summer for few days only to visit family and do sightseeing. On my last day I made the biggest mistake of going to get a dosa from this man. At first I was told that I was the last person. Then they kept letting more people in. I wasted 5 hours, I repeat 5 hours! to get 1 low quality dosa! 5 hours for 1 dry dosa! He catered more and spent time talking to the last group of 10 people than to me who really was to be the last person. I found him to be unpleasant and the dosa was terrible - no sambar or chutney or tea. All gone. What makes me mad is my own stupidity that the 5 hours I wasted standing in line in the sun for the terrible food - I couldn't spend doing something fun! Also if you are from a city like Toronto like I am - do yourself a favour and buy dosas from the 100 restaurants that sell them than wasting your time here. You'll thank me for this tip. Every time I think about this experience, it actually upsets me. Don't go here!
To whoever is reading this : May God bless you ! You’re gunna do great in life ! Put God first and everything will fall into place ! John 3:16 says , “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life ! Wishing nothing but love , joy , peace, prosperity, faith, hope, etc. Have a blessed day ! God loves you so much!!!!
I like Dosa because I stay in Little India Singapore when I was young. The crispy wrapped with potatoes and carrots dip with curry and coconut gravy. Yummy.
Nice! Dosas are great!
Super Great I like Dosa very much , hey you are enjoying so good , usually I eat 4 time in a week super testy Dosa also mysore Bajji.
Nice! Dosas are great! I need to eat more of them.
