Hi Gary, Thank you so much for visiting Tharavadu and for your incredible review. We are truly honored to be rated as the best restaurant you’ve ever been to! It brings us immense joy to know that you had a great time with us. Seeing our hard work and dedication recognized on a national level means the world to our entire team. We look forward to welcoming you back soon for another delightful experience! Best regards, Team Tharavadu
I’m not like;y to be able to try this, but the food looks incredible. Just the colours and presentation alone give you a taste, everything looks so fresh too.
You & the team should be very proud of the excellent dining experience you have created. The food looked totally delicious and wonderful, & fully deserved of Gary's very complimentary review.. 👏
Just come across this video. My wife, adult son and myself were in Leeds on a visit to the UK from Canada last September. We are all curry lovers and asked the hotel if there was a restaurant they could recommend. They recommended Tharavadu, but told us to book or we wouldn't get a seat. We had to be helped by the incredibly friendly waiter to order our food because we weren't familiar with the Kerala menu. What we finished up ordering was the best curry any of us had ever eaten. I think your review is right on the mark, this has got to be one of the best restaurants we have ever eaten in too.
I am from southern India and specifically from Kerala. Thank you for loving our food so much. Our cuisine is coconut based because the very word Kerala means the coconut palm. So glad you enjoyed it so much.
I've seen Gary satisfied, I've seen him very satisfied, I've seen him delighted, but I've never seen him so excited, almost at a loss for words. Must be one hell of a restaurant.
I agree Gary - Southern Indian food is a delight -when backpacking in India I was coming back from seeing the "Ajanta/Ellora " cave temples on my way back to Pune - met up with a German hippy guy & he took me to a bus station(no tourists) for something to eat (I was apprehensive) & we had the "Masala Dosa" it cost next to nothing & was one of the best meals I had during my travels throughout the country. Excellent review Gary 👍
OMG I'm out with clients in 2 weeks so close to this restaurant, am I booking a table for dinner with them you know I am. As always Gary your channel stands out from the crowd for honest reviews & great content 👏
Man alive Gary, you’ve done it again. Some of your viewer recommendations deserve the highest praise. I was in hospital for several months this year and half the nurses were from Kerala and I loved chatting with them and learning about their paradise homeland and learning about their cuisine and local life. I’ll never forget it and you have just brought it home. Another way point now added for my travels for when I’m driving/biking again. Cheers fella. ❤
It is a paradise no Keralite wants to stay in.They run out of their state either for studies or jobs and tell the whole world about their paradise 😂😂😂😂😂
Fantastic review as always Gary. I married a south Indian woman. South Indian food is my absolute favorite food as well, and also the only food our young kids will both eat without complaint every single time! Glad you enjoyed it.
It’s 3.30am in Australia and the only positive thing about insomnia is receiving a notification from Gary Eats! Another fantastic review and the food looked amazing especially the lamb chops!Thank you Gary and cameraman for another great video.
I could eat Masala Dosa every day of my life. I have had the pleasure of living in in SE Asia for 25 years where Dosa is available with a couple of cups of Teh Halia (Ginger Tea....Black tea with condensed milk and ginger boiled into it) It is the perfect breakfast for me. I am pleased you have found it. The Roti Paratha also look delicious and flaky as it should be also with dipping sauces. Brilliant.
The look of joy on your face as you were eating and describing your meal was what seperates your reviews from anyone else,it is so honest and is all about the food and not about you.Excellent restaurant and a top rating for a place that certainly deserves it.Superb Indian food
Agreed Gary. 8 or so years ago, I regularly took my staff out to this place, it will comfortably provide meat eaters to a different view on vegetarian eats. It is wonderful and never fails to delight. Good to see you out and about in the UK Powerhouses!!! London is the death star, the provinces is where it is at......and I am a born cockney!
I have just moved to Leeds and was on the lookout for quality Indian cuisine. I tried because of your review. Your review was spot on, sensational food. Thanks
Great to watch this - we had an incredible holiday in Kerala a few years back. Highlight was 3 days on a houseboat on the backwaters (think exotic Norfolk Broads!). It was the most luxurious experience we’ve ever had and the crew of 3 knocked up the most amazing cuisine imaginable.
This presenting style makes me feel like I'm sitting there with you. And whilst not being there to taste, your accurate descriptors make it feel like I can. Fantastic.
Lucky enough to have been to Tharavadu a few times as I worked in Leeds. Fantastic restaurant. Also recommend Bundobust next door which is more of a street food type place but is also very good and has managed to survive alongside the best restaurant in the city. Great review Gary.
High praise indeed,you can always tell when you eat something extra special as your momentarily lost for words…they deserve any extra customers they get from the video..makes such a difference when the staff are great it just elevates the whole experience
i Live in Qatar and, across the Middle East, there are a massive number of Kerala ex-pats working here. Authentic Kerala food is simply amazing - totally different to what British call "Indian" food.
Indian restaurants in UK are mostly owned and run by Bangladeshi s. They cater for a British taste and have an almost uniform menu across the country. India is a vast country where there is a large variety of cuisine from the various regions. So really there is no such thing as Indian cuisine. There is regional cuisine from the various parts of India.
Finally, I understand why I love this channel that I just recently discovered. Fell for the charming, down to earth and humble attitude, always respectful, even if the food is not as expected. Keep going with these great and unbiased reviews. Well done.
Great to see you get excited about the food and how you slow down on actually saying your thoughts when the meal is that exceptional, yet another top review, just the tonic I needed after seeing all the issues in the UK at the moment and I thank you for that sir.
This Kerala cuisine looked absolutely amazing. The presentation, the flavors, and that huge bread . Understandably that score is so justified. I wish there was a branch in London. Its so lovely to see you Gary with that big smile and a contented tummy at the end of it. Thankyou for sharing the best ever experience
(172) South Indian food is quite reliant on coconut; it is the main coconut-growing region of the country. I've watched someone make the flaky flat bread; what a "moo" of a job that is. But it is SO GOOD. Great upload, Gary!!!
@@GaryEats Kerala - Land of Coconuts - Gods own LAND... Lot of EUROPE History and Spices.. They got their own TODDY Liqour there.... - COCONUT and PALM ...

Dad studied in CHENNAI Loyola and He has been to UK early 70s..
Only discovered this channel quite recently, as it turned up on my recommended. Now I can safely say that it's one of my favourites! I just can't stop watching your reviews! Thank you for doing these videos Gary.
Hi Gary, love watching your videos! I’m a doctor training in London but born and bred in Mumbai, India. I spent around 18 months living in Portsmouth whilst working there. I would highly recommend ‘Desi’ which is an Indian restaurant serving some of the best and most authentic Indian food including the likes of Yoghurt Chaat, Vada Pav (Indian street food burger), Biryani and lots more. I make it a point to visit them whenever I travel to Portsmouth. Keep making these amazing videos. Take care 😊
I've been too Gary (couple of years pre COVID when I was working up in Leeds) and it is amazing and has been around for years! Loving how your channel is growing! Nice one and well done!
Gary you bring me back to the early days of youtube, where it wasn't tv 2.0. The professional image quality you have aside, your review feels like it's coming from a real person, not a brand or persona. It feels personal and genuine and i hope you two can keep it that way. Convoluted way of me saying, stay who you are, it's so pleasant to watch. /edit i have never seen indian food looking so good. especially in terms of presentation i find it usually rather lacking, but this was top notch.
It's only when you live in a few different countries that you realise how brilliant the BBC is. Honestly, nobody else has what we have. I don't want to be controversial on a foodie programme, though, so I'll just say how great this food looks. If I'm ever in Leeds (and there are lots of reasons to go there), I'll definitely book a table!
I'm not Indian, but I follow a food and travel RUclipsr from Kerala, Ebbin Jose, on his channel Food N Travel. He comments in Malayalam but always has subtitles in English. I've learnt a lot about Keralan food through him.
Hi Gary, I am quite often up in Leeds for work, teaching up there. But I have never heen to this restaurant, have heard about it, but never gotten around to get my behind in gear. But that food looked and sounded absolutely amazing. So next time I am up North I will definitely go there and have a wonderful meal. Never tried southern Indian cuisine before and it's obvious about time, from your review. Made me hungry again, Gary! 😋 An absolutely wonderful review and so insightful so I could almost taste the meal. Have a wonderful rest of your time up North and looking forward to hearing from you, mate! Now, we are going out with some friends for a tapas night, as the tradition is up in the whole of the North of Spain, you go from place to place, having a couple of tapas and a couple of beers. So I am afraid all the work I did in the gym this morning, was for nothing! 😬
I love Indian food..it looks great and by the sounds of it , it tastes great.....so many places get Indian food wrong and rare to find authentic Indian food as it's best.
This show just gets better every episode. I now want to jump in my car from Essex and drive to this restaurant. Maybe not tonight but definitely in the next few weeks. Keep up the great work. Terry v
Welcome to the cuisine from south India. Glad you enjoyed it! The typical curry house in the UK served food from Punjab in the north. Completely different spice pallet and cooking techniques used in the south. Btw the Dosa is made with fermented batter and is usually enjoyed for breakfast.
Thanks for visiting Tharavadu Gary! It's my #1 recommendation to ANYONE who asks about good places to eat in Leeds for all the reasons you covered. Since the place opened it's been knockout and hasn't gone down a level, always been fair value and I'm glad you picked up on the atmosphere and feeling of the place being warm and welcoming. I've eaten here more times than I can count but I never get sick of it it's a real treat. Glad you got to experience it and thanks for popping back to Leeds!
Hey Gary, so glad you've found Keralan food. It's our favourite too. We live in a small town, Newark, but we are very fortunate in having a wonderful Keralan restaurant here. It is consistently top of the TA ratings and the food is amazing. It is called Koinonia, located in the centre at 19 St Mark's Lane, Newark NG24 1XS. In addition to a full menu they also do a lunchtime small Thali for £7.95. Do "give it a go" if you are ever in Newark. We shall certainly try Tharavadu when we can.
Ahhh I saw your comment that there is a Kerala restaurant in Newark, got excited to try only to realise it is in Newark UK, not Newark New Jersey US, just the other side of the ocean
@@usnasi4439 Who'd have thought there was a Newark in the USA? The real one is in Nottinghamshire, its full name is Newark-on-Trent. Maybe one day there will be a Keralan restaurant in your little Newark too.
I came on board when you had well under 5k subscribers and predicted that if you continued in the same vein you would smash it. You obviously have and your first reviews are presented in the same way as they are now. You haven't changed like some do and continue to be honest, informative and so easy to watch. Don't ever change what you do and how you do it. Said before that you are arguably the best youtuber in this field.
Good evening Gary. Great to see you again! I'm sure like me many subscribers look forward to 6pm for a smile and a great tonic. Cheers and once again thanks!!! Stephen.
I live in an indian food desert, we have a few places but they're not great, so I've been learning to cook indian recipes from YT. Has to be my favorite cuisine. This looks great!
Just looks so, so proper. Reminds me of the curries the migrant workers in Minhad would lay on once a week. The bread from the clay circular ovens came out light and fluffy like that. The variety and depth of flavour on offer was thrilling. Meals were a treat, a real social event.
I live in Kerala state in India, love your videos. Just looked it up -Tharavadu means -family which keeps the values of tradition. Must be owned by a native of my state. Keep it up Gary!
@@GaryEats Hi Gary...would like to recommend you to to try Parsi food (if you can find it in the UK)...Persian and Indian fusion food made by the Parsi's who escaped persecution in their country in olden times and were given sanctuary in India. They are also known as Zoroastrians.
Great food Gary, but I have just rushed off to answer the phone, even the second time I almost went! This place looks amazing and outstanding. Wish I was there!
That’s very kind to say, Mike thank you very much and it’s people like you who are supported the channel for such a long time that make it worthwhile, please have a wonderful weekend
Thank you Gary, this is out favourite Indian restaurant, did you know when the cricket team from India visit Headingley they always visit here. We love it and glad you felt the same. Excellent review. Made us want to go again!
Love your honest views Gary, especially when it comes down to visiting restaurants run by celebrities. When you work so hard to achieve the best, you deserve all the acolades bestowed upon you. So glad to hear the waiters were not stuffy or arrogant, but friendly and welcoming. Food looked delicious and fabulously presented.
I lived in Cochin Kerala for 6 months, fell in love with the vegetarian, paneer and fish dishes there - the people were different too - much calmer - great review Gary
Twenty years ago me and my then partner and now wife travelled around the world. Our last stop was India. We had Northern Indian curry in Rhajastan and Delhi it was amazing. We then got a 2 day sleeper train to Kerala. The food and people were so different. We stayed in Cochin and kovalam on the coast and ate this cuisine to our hearts content. At the coast you have clifftop restaurants that have the days catch stored on ice. We chose king and swordfish by the thickness of your choice, they quickly chop it to size and bring it in a Keralan Curry in minutes. Just amazing. Also in Kerala you can rent a huge riceboat with a crew of 3. This includes a chef ! We had one night, evening meal and breakfast and toured the backwater canals . It's the Indian equivalent of the Norfolk broads I guess. Back in the day it cost £30 but it's an absolute must. We travelled up the coast to Goa to finish our trip and fell in love with this amazing coconut based cuisine. A totally different taste to our English curry house palate.
Dear Gary, Thank you for another great video! Thanks to you I refreshed my friendships in the UK. I went to visit friends up north in Middlesbrough (still not able to conquer the mighty Parmo) Then I went to visit the Midlands and met up with an ex-Royal Marine friend. And last I went to Bushey to meet a friend. So many great memories. Such amazing friendships. Gary, as always, thanks to you for being such a friendly, well behaved, lovely person. It’s what we need during these times. And if you ever find yourself in The Netherlands: Allow me to take you for a meal
Hi Gary..wow😮what a fantastic review as per usual and what a wonderful restaurant that delivers and definitely puts those so called celebrity restaurants to shame..Gary kept up the fantastic work..can’t wait for your next foodie adventure..
Gary… as a curry enthousiast, the ‘bread’, sauces… the simplicity, the purity… this video was again a treat!! And the background… the renovation 😂😂😂 Your left arm/hand… how are things going with that? I am a nurse… so looking at it 😉
Our friend Rick Stein did a series on southern Indian cuisine quite a few years ago. He explored some amazing cooking from there. Indian food at its best.
Gary, your experience shows that there are " experts" in quisine that are just dedicated people. It proves you don't need Gordon Ramsy to produce quality food, in a spectacular way. The dishes were unbelievably artistic as well as quality. Well done to the culinary artist who produced the food.👏👏👏
Cant lie, that looked incredible. The lamb, the curry, the dosa that was the size of a rolled up carpet - all amazing. Two tens in quick succession too!
Oooooh Gary isnt it wonderful. My boys and I recently visited for my son’s 21st. We cannot tell you how much we enjoy your videos. We too care for my elderly Dad so can empathise how much these precious times mean to you and your lovely son. You bring sunshine into so many lives ☀️☀️ We love York too and one of our favourites is a chippy called Drakes. You will love it im sure. Much love to You and Your Family Karen, Jacob and Matthew 🤗🤗🤗
I’m really enjoyed this one, Karen as you are aware this is a fantastic restaurant, I really appreciate you all watching and I send you my kindest regards please say hello to Jacob and Matthew as well 💯👌👌
There are actually more Keralan restaurants in Leeds, one on Briggate where you walk upstairs. I enjoy Keralan food as we've spent a month touring Kerala several years ago, The Land of the Coconuts is its name and the thallis are fantastic....local food there is extremely cheap and absolutely delicious.
Hi Gary, when I saw the title for this video, I thought this must be spectacular food! I've had some great Indian meals in the past, but this place serving Southern Indian cuisine looked lovely & unique. The presentation of the dishes was fantastic! Your description of the flavours sounded very enticing. I like a little bit of spice in food, but not anything too overwhelming. I now have another restaurant added to my "Gary Eats" list. I'll have to make my next visit to the UK a six month holiday at this rate. 😅 I haven't visited Leeds before, but did spend a couple of days nearby in Harrogate & Knaresborough, around 10 years ago & that was lovely. Your enthusiasm is wonderful in these reviews where the food is outstanding... A top-notch recommendation by some of your subscribers. As always, a brilliant review & wishing you & your son all the best. Til' next time 💙
@@GaryEats Hi Gary, of course! Every review you do is real quality... Even if it's Taco Bell! 😅. I think you're going to be at 200K subscribers before you know it. I'm not quite sure yet at what time of year in 2025 I'll be back in the UK. Not the peak summer months, it will be in the milder weather. I've had a couple of things just come up in recent weeks, causing a bit of stress. I work for a large company & redundancies are afoot soon, plus I may have to move as well in the very near future. Once those things have settled, I can make some plans. There are several places I'd love to visit & re-visit around the UK, but mostly I want to spend some time in Ireland. It's a real bucket list destination for me. I'll have to shoot you an email somewhere soon. It would be great to get a few suggestions & recommendations from you in the coming months, if you have time & also, if there was an opportunity to cross paths with you next year, that would be absolutely fantastic. 💙
I live fairly close to Leeds so I'm definitely going to give this place a try next time I visit. The food looks absolutely fantastic, can't wait to taste some 😋
Hello Gary .I love lamb and that lamb dish looked stunning. I love the way you explain what you can actually taste , eg spices , seasoning, flavours whether the meat is tender or not. The dishes looked so delicious. Thank you for sharing sweet x 😊
Wonderful episode. Loved it. Well done Tharavadu. Just back from Edinburgh. Two nights at Rustom. Best I've curry I've ever had (and lived alongside Brum for years).
What a fantastic place to eat, those lamb chops looked amazing ,has did all the food ,10/10 all day long . I need to get up to Leeds sometime soon .Great review Gary ,Keep well,Keep cool .Cheers
Gary your shows have become one of my must-watches on youtube, each one excellent and you're the perfect gentleman, honest, straight, knowledgeable and no pretention. Love it and may your channel grow and grow. That meal looked out of this world, I could almost taste and smell it . . . your face told the whole story
Thank you very much as always Rosie. On this occasion the food was outstanding. Definitely one I highly recommend. Please have a wonderful weekend and take care. 🌹🌹
So glad that you got to try the cuisine of my birthplace, Kerala!. Has always been underrated. Please do try the Kerala beef roast along with Kerala parotta when you get a chance..it's really good.
@@rosemarymeeVegetarian meals (rice with a variety of vegetarian curries) could be your ticket. IMHO, Kerala style biryani is very good. Try vegetarian biryani too.
@@rosemarymee No, there are many types - I think most uses rice in some quantities. Wheat, except in Kerala style parathas and some dosas, is not that common as it's not grown in Kerala. Now, bread as in 🍞, yes it uses 00 flour or semolina or a mix of them.
Gary, totally agree with your review. I have also eaten here and the food is excellent. You should have announced you were visiting Leeds we could have done a meet and greet 😊
Gary! This is the most jealously inspired you've ever made me. I've just moved to chorley from Manchester and I'm trying this place if it's the last thing I do ❤
@@GaryEats 6 of ate us there last night and all of us were blown away, the place was packed out and you always have a slight concern that standards may drop, but those fears were completely unfounded. I started off with the Chilli Paneer which set the bar high for flavour and presentation which only got better with the arrival of my Kerela Curry. Outstanding meal and well recommended with a very reasonable cost for the quality. Cheers again Gary for the review!!
Can’t believe we were just around the corner staying at the Marriott twice last year and didnt see this place! Well soon remedied this year when we visit in November. We shall definitely be trying this place out. Great review Gary, always love when you find really good places, thank you.

Hi Gary, that was actually me ringing the phone! Shame u didn't get to it as I was calling to remind u to share some that food with the cameraman! LOL
😂😂😂
I always find these funny remarks Garys job is to review the food the cameramans is to film it , get that straight people .
Looks delish 🥥🥭 warm wishes from a Canadian traveling solo for 5 months Vietnam , Cambodia trying all kinds of dishes along the way 🍜🍤🥖
LOL Brian
Just loved the review, and I'm not even a foodie!😅
Finally, I understand why I love this channel that I just recently discovered. Fell for the charming, down to earth and humble attitude, always respectful, even if the food is not as expected. Keep going with these great and unbiased reviews. Well done.
That is very kind to say thank you very much and have a wonderful weekend
Great to see you get excited about the food and how you slow down on actually saying your thoughts when the meal is that exceptional, yet another top review, just the tonic I needed after seeing all the issues in the UK at the moment and I thank you for that sir.
I really appreciate that, thank you Jason
This Kerala cuisine looked absolutely amazing. The presentation, the flavors, and that huge bread . Understandably that score is so justified. I wish there was a branch in London. Its so lovely to see you Gary with that big smile and a contented tummy at the end of it. Thankyou for sharing the best ever experience
It's like art on a plate, very very nice to look at (and eat)
We are so lucky to have such a diverse range of cultures and cuisines in the UK . This food looks incredible . Really enjoyed watching
That’s very kind to say, thank you very much
I live in Leeds and never knew this gem. As a curry lover I’ll be taking a visit. Thanks Gary
Me too - lived here for 25 yrs and never heard of it. That's about to change. I'll be there within the next 7 days - looks awesome.
Thanks Scott, give it a go mate you'll love it
Ditto
People with passion just make our world a better place. Fab as always Gary.... ticket to Leeds !
I appreciate your lovely comment, thank you Keith
I like when Gary gets, well Gary. His face changes, his voice changes… mmmhhmmhhmmhh as a word. Love it, don’t change
That’s very kind to say, Simon thank you
(172) South Indian food is quite reliant on coconut; it is the main coconut-growing region of the country. I've watched someone make the flaky flat bread; what a "moo" of a job that is. But it is SO GOOD. Great upload, Gary!!!
Absolutely delicious, loved it!!
@@GaryEats Kerala - Land of Coconuts - Gods own LAND... Lot of EUROPE History and Spices.. They got their own TODDY Liqour there.... - COCONUT and PALM ...
I think you are talking about the state of the kerala, they are cooking with coconut, and they are using coconut oil also for cooking

Only discovered this channel quite recently, as it turned up on my recommended. Now I can safely say that it's one of my favourites! I just can't stop watching your reviews! Thank you for doing these videos Gary.
That is very kind to say thank you very much strength
Hi Gary, love watching your videos! I’m a doctor training in London but born and bred in Mumbai, India. I spent around 18 months living in Portsmouth whilst working there. I would highly recommend ‘Desi’ which is an Indian restaurant serving some of the best and most authentic Indian food including the likes of Yoghurt Chaat, Vada Pav (Indian street food burger), Biryani and lots more. I make it a point to visit them whenever I travel to Portsmouth. Keep making these amazing videos. Take care 😊
Thank you my friend. Thank you for being an amazing person
I've been too Gary (couple of years pre COVID when I was working up in Leeds) and it is amazing and has been around for years! Loving how your channel is growing! Nice one and well done!
Brilliant!! Thank you Damian
Gary Eats... You're a bad bad man! I'm tormented now because we have nothing like that near us. Another excellent find and review.
Lol I'm so sorry my good friend
Gary you bring me back to the early days of youtube, where it wasn't tv 2.0. The professional image quality you have aside, your review feels like it's coming from a real person, not a brand or persona. It feels personal and genuine and i hope you two can keep it that way.
Convoluted way of me saying, stay who you are, it's so pleasant to watch.
/edit i have never seen indian food looking so good. especially in terms of presentation i find it usually rather lacking, but this was top notch.
That is a very kind comment to make thank you very much
I agree with you. There's no bias or agenda. Gary's enthusiasm for food experiences shines through.
I don't think I have ever seen 'Indian' food presented so beautifully. That food looked amazing. A great choice & a great vid Gary.
It was art on a plate Ian, superb!
"we're not the BBC" - We know. You are actually entertaining.
😂😂😂😂😂
Very funny Richie lol
And you tell the truth
It's only when you live in a few different countries that you realise how brilliant the BBC is. Honestly, nobody else has what we have. I don't want to be controversial on a foodie programme, though, so I'll just say how great this food looks. If I'm ever in Leeds (and there are lots of reasons to go there), I'll definitely book a table!
The bbc is truly evil. @@bilbobaggins706
I'm not Indian, but I follow a food and travel RUclipsr from Kerala, Ebbin Jose, on his channel Food N Travel. He comments in Malayalam but always has subtitles in English. I've learnt a lot about Keralan food through him.
I will take a look as it sounds fascinating
When are you visiting bosso. The fish fry is waiting for you in kerala
Wow, looks incredible. A 10 and then a 10* back to back! Thanks for sharing your experiences, both of you.
I really appreciate that, thank you so much Stephen!
Hi Gary, I am quite often up in Leeds for work, teaching up there. But I have never heen to this restaurant, have heard about it, but never gotten around to get my behind in gear. But that food looked and sounded absolutely amazing. So next time I am up North I will definitely go there and have a wonderful meal. Never tried southern Indian cuisine before and it's obvious about time, from your review. Made me hungry again, Gary! 😋 An absolutely wonderful review and so insightful so I could almost taste the meal. Have a wonderful rest of your time up North and looking forward to hearing from you, mate! Now, we are going out with some friends for a tapas night, as the tradition is up in the whole of the North of Spain, you go from place to place, having a couple of tapas and a couple of beers. So I am afraid all the work I did in the gym this morning, was for nothing! 😬
Really hope you enjoyed your tapas Frank. I do need to come to the north of Spain soon!! I really appreciate that, have a lovely weekend
I love Indian food..it looks great and by the sounds of it , it tastes great.....so many places get Indian food wrong and rare to find authentic Indian food as it's best.
This is simply outstanding
This show just gets better every episode. I now want to jump in my car from Essex and drive to this restaurant. Maybe not tonight but definitely in the next few weeks. Keep up the great work. Terry v
I really appreciate that, have a wonderful weekend Terry. Means a lot you keep enjoying the videos
Welcome to the cuisine from south India. Glad you enjoyed it! The typical curry house in the UK served food from Punjab in the north. Completely different spice pallet and cooking techniques used in the south. Btw the Dosa is made with fermented batter and is usually enjoyed for breakfast.
Thank you for all the information, Bob
Hi Gary, as always, let’s give it a go! Looks like you’ve caught the sun in the last few days too 👍
Thank you very much
what a brilliant video, definitely opens your eyes to southern india cuisine. Great work garry
I really appreciate that, thank you so much Tom
Thanks for visiting Tharavadu Gary! It's my #1 recommendation to ANYONE who asks about good places to eat in Leeds for all the reasons you covered. Since the place opened it's been knockout and hasn't gone down a level, always been fair value and I'm glad you picked up on the atmosphere and feeling of the place being warm and welcoming.
I've eaten here more times than I can count but I never get sick of it it's a real treat. Glad you got to experience it and thanks for popping back to Leeds!
I really enjoyed this one. It was one of the best meals I have ever eaten if not
I just recently discovered your channel and I love it Gary! Thank you for your content!
Chris from the USA.
Thank you very much for watching and commenting Chris
Hey Gary, so glad you've found Keralan food. It's our favourite too. We live in a small town, Newark, but we are very fortunate in having a wonderful Keralan restaurant here. It is consistently top of the TA ratings and the food is amazing.
It is called Koinonia, located in the centre at 19 St Mark's Lane, Newark NG24 1XS. In addition to a full menu they also do a lunchtime small Thali for £7.95. Do "give it a go" if you are ever in Newark. We shall certainly try Tharavadu when we can.
It's excellent. I will try my best!!
Think about daily we are making it in home 😂
Ahhh I saw your comment that there is a Kerala restaurant in Newark, got excited to try only to realise it is in Newark UK, not Newark New Jersey US, just the other side of the ocean
@@usnasi4439 Who'd have thought there was a Newark in the USA? The real one is in Nottinghamshire, its full name is Newark-on-Trent. Maybe one day there will be a Keralan restaurant in your little Newark too.
I came on board when you had well under 5k subscribers and predicted that if you continued in the same vein you would smash it.
You obviously have and your first reviews are presented in the same way as they are now.
You haven't changed like some do and continue to be honest, informative and so easy to watch.
Don't ever change what you do and how you do it.
Said before that you are arguably the best youtuber in this field.
That is so very kind, Ian thank you very much and I really appreciate you still watching and supporting the channel
Good evening Gary. Great to see you again! I'm sure like me many subscribers look forward to 6pm for a smile and a great tonic. Cheers and once again thanks!!! Stephen.
How you doing Stephen?
I love the way you EDUCATE people about food from around the world!! Luv your straight talking and attitude Gary🎉🎉🎉
Thank you so much, I'm by no means an expert, this is also an education for me!!
love you gary. my new comfort youtuber ❤
That’s so kind to say, thank you ❤️🌹❤️
I live in an indian food desert, we have a few places but they're not great, so I've been learning to cook indian recipes from YT. Has to be my favorite cuisine. This looks great!
May I recommend that you invest in a copy of "The Curry Guy Bible" by Dan Toombs??? You won't regret it. 😉
Mick Crawford's BIR books are good. One has South Indian Garlic Chilli Chicken recipe that is superb
This was excellent Nick, have a look for some new recipes!
Go to "the backyard chef-Ric,and his other channel NOT ANOTHER CURRY?his presentation and recipes are bang on and easy to follow?
The best Indian food on RUclips is get curried. Real Indian food cooked by Indians in India.
Just looks so, so proper. Reminds me of the curries the migrant workers in Minhad would lay on once a week. The bread from the clay circular ovens came out light and fluffy like that. The variety and depth of flavour on offer was thrilling. Meals were a treat, a real social event.
It was absolutely incredible George. Flavours are wonderful
I live in Kerala state in India, love your videos. Just looked it up -Tharavadu means -family which keeps the values of tradition. Must be owned by a native of my state. Keep it up Gary!
Thank you very much for watching all the way from India 🇮🇳
@@GaryEats Hi Gary...would like to recommend you to to try Parsi food (if you can find it in the UK)...Persian and Indian fusion food made by the Parsi's who escaped persecution in their country in olden times and were given sanctuary in India. They are also known as Zoroastrians.
That looks sensational. We have friends from southern India, and they have made us lovely meals. That was so so special Gary.
It was incredible Patricia !!!
Gary, That meal looked fantastic !! Thank you both for the video.
I really appreciate that, have a lovely weekend
@@GaryEats You also have a lovely weekend !
Great food Gary, but I have just rushed off to answer the phone, even the second time I almost went! This place looks amazing and outstanding. Wish I was there!
Just over one year since the channel was launched. Over 120k subs. So well deserved. Such great reviews. Honest, informative, polite...Thanks Gary👍😘
That’s very kind to say, Mike thank you very much and it’s people like you who are supported the channel for such a long time that make it worthwhile, please have a wonderful weekend
All I could do was look in amazement and drool at the mouth. What a fantastic restaurant. Great video Gary, thank you.
I really appreciate that, have a lovely weekend!!
Thank you Gary, this is out favourite Indian restaurant, did you know when the cricket team from India visit Headingley they always visit here. We love it and glad you felt the same. Excellent review. Made us want to go again!
Wow that's great to hear, it's a spectacular restaurant and deserves all the credit in the world
Love your honest views Gary, especially when it comes down to visiting restaurants run by celebrities. When you work so hard to achieve the best, you deserve all the acolades bestowed upon you. So glad to hear the waiters were not stuffy or arrogant, but friendly and welcoming. Food looked delicious and fabulously presented.
This was a wonderful restaurant and one I highly recommend and congratulations to the owners, the staff and the chefs
Another great video, Gary! Thanks.
Glad you enjoyed it!! Top man Billy
Wow, you’re looking very summery. Five am here in NZ. Looking forward to watching.
Thanks Jen, that is very early
I lived in Cochin Kerala for 6 months, fell in love with the vegetarian, paneer and fish dishes there - the people were different too - much calmer - great review Gary
That is fantastic to hear. I really enjoyed the food from southern India.
Twenty years ago me and my then partner and now wife travelled around the world. Our last stop was India. We had Northern Indian curry in Rhajastan and Delhi it was amazing. We then got a 2 day sleeper train to Kerala. The food and people were so different. We stayed in Cochin and kovalam on the coast and ate this cuisine to our hearts content. At the coast you have clifftop restaurants that have the days catch stored on ice. We chose king and swordfish by the thickness of your choice, they quickly chop it to size and bring it in a Keralan Curry in minutes. Just amazing. Also in Kerala you can rent a huge riceboat with a crew of 3. This includes a chef ! We had one night, evening meal and breakfast and toured the backwater canals . It's the Indian equivalent of the Norfolk broads I guess. Back in the day it cost £30 but it's an absolute must. We travelled up the coast to Goa to finish our trip and fell in love with this amazing coconut based cuisine. A totally different taste to our English curry house palate.
Great content Gary..extending your culinary repertoire..keep up the simply outstanding work 👍🏽
That is very kind to say thank you very much
Dear Gary,
Thank you for another great video!
Thanks to you I refreshed my friendships in the UK. I went to visit friends up north in Middlesbrough (still not able to conquer the mighty Parmo) Then I went to visit the Midlands and met up with an ex-Royal Marine friend. And last I went to Bushey to meet a friend. So many great memories. Such amazing friendships.
Gary, as always, thanks to you for being such a friendly, well behaved, lovely person. It’s what we need during these times.
And if you ever find yourself in The Netherlands: Allow me to take you for a meal
That is a wonderful comment. I am so pleased for you. Well done.
Hi Gary..wow😮what a fantastic review as per usual and what a wonderful restaurant that delivers and definitely puts those so called celebrity restaurants to shame..Gary kept up the fantastic work..can’t wait for your next foodie adventure..
Glad you enjoyed it
Gary… as a curry enthousiast, the ‘bread’, sauces… the simplicity, the purity… this video was again a treat!!
And the background… the renovation 😂😂😂
Your left arm/hand… how are things going with that? I am a nurse… so looking at it 😉
This was superb! Yes not good at the moment, may have to go to the hospital soon
@@GaryEats More important than a new video!!
Wow plate after plate full of quality , i can only imagine the smells coming from the food , it looked AMAZING !!
Quality was incredible Mark, really impressive
Bloody love this channel, it has really grown on me. You're doing a great job Gary.
That’s very kind to say, thank you very much, Rich
Our friend Rick Stein did a series on southern Indian cuisine quite a few years ago. He explored some amazing cooking from there. Indian food at its best.
Rick is the goat 🐐
I did watch that series and I thought it was very good
Gary, your experience shows that there are " experts" in quisine that are just dedicated people. It proves you don't need Gordon Ramsy to produce quality food, in a spectacular way. The dishes were unbelievably artistic as well as quality. Well done to the culinary artist who produced the food.👏👏👏
Spot on, this was art on a plate!
You're a legend Gary. You always have time for your viewers and love how you answer every comment on your videos.
That’s very kind to say, thank you very much, Michael. I hope you have a wonderful week.
Indian, my favorite 🎉
Great to hear!
Cant lie, that looked incredible. The lamb, the curry, the dosa that was the size of a rolled up carpet - all amazing. Two tens in quick succession too!
Thank you, it was incredibly good
Just watched this, then booked a table for tomorrow. Looks amazing, can't wait!
How did it go Tim?
The world's a good place when u have another Gary Eats to watch.
Very kind to say thank you very much
Oooooh Gary isnt it wonderful. My boys and I recently visited for my son’s 21st.
We cannot tell you how much we enjoy your videos.
We too care for my elderly Dad so can empathise how much these precious times mean to you and your lovely son.
You bring sunshine into so many lives ☀️☀️
We love York too and one of our favourites is a chippy called Drakes. You will love it im sure.
Much love to You and Your Family

That is very kind to say this restaurant was wonderful, Janis ❤️🌹❤️
There are actually more Keralan restaurants in Leeds, one on Briggate where you walk upstairs.
I enjoy Keralan food as we've spent a month touring Kerala several years ago, The Land of the Coconuts is its name and the thallis are fantastic....local food there is extremely cheap and absolutely delicious.
Thank you very much for the recommendations, Barbara. I will bear in mind for the future.
Gosh my mouth is watering once again fantastic video thank you Gary must try that food Ann👍👍👍
I promise you, you will not be disappointed Ann 🌹
Hi Gary, when I saw the title for this video, I thought this must be spectacular food! I've had some great Indian meals in the past, but this place serving Southern Indian cuisine looked lovely & unique. The presentation of the dishes was fantastic! Your description of the flavours sounded very enticing. I like a little bit of spice in food, but not anything too overwhelming. I now have another restaurant added to my "Gary Eats" list. I'll have to make my next visit to the UK a six month holiday at this rate. 😅 I haven't visited Leeds before, but did spend a couple of days nearby in Harrogate & Knaresborough, around 10 years ago & that was lovely. Your enthusiasm is wonderful in these reviews where the food is outstanding... A top-notch recommendation by some of your subscribers. As always, a brilliant review & wishing you & your son all the best. Til' next time 💙
Thank you very much for your wonderful comment as always Erin out of interest. When are you planning to come to the UK? ❤️❤️🌹
@@GaryEats Hi Gary, of course! Every review you do is real quality... Even if it's Taco Bell! 😅. I think you're going to be at 200K subscribers before you know it. I'm not quite sure yet at what time of year in 2025 I'll be back in the UK. Not the peak summer months, it will be in the milder weather. I've had a couple of things just come up in recent weeks, causing a bit of stress. I work for a large company & redundancies are afoot soon, plus I may have to move as well in the very near future. Once those things have settled, I can make some plans. There are several places I'd love to visit & re-visit around the UK, but mostly I want to spend some time in Ireland. It's a real bucket list destination for me. I'll have to shoot you an email somewhere soon. It would be great to get a few suggestions & recommendations from you in the coming months, if you have time & also, if there was an opportunity to cross paths with you next year, that would be absolutely fantastic. 💙
I live fairly close to Leeds so I'm definitely going to give this place a try next time I visit. The food looks absolutely fantastic, can't wait to taste some 😋
Give it a go, you won't regret it
Hello Gary .I love lamb and that lamb dish looked stunning. I love the way you explain what you can actually taste , eg spices , seasoning, flavours whether the meat is tender or not.
The dishes looked so delicious. Thank you for sharing sweet x 😊
Have a lovely weekend and thank you Maria!
@@GaryEats Thank you our Gary and wishing you and family a lovely , hopefully relaxed weekend too x 😊

Thank you very much and I have to say your curry sounds amazing
Been there, I agree that it's awesome in every respect except there's no bloke bouncing salt off his elbow

Some people with more money than sense would rather go to that salt bai nonsense than a decent restaurant like this.
Well, "no bloke bouncing salt off his elbow" should give them an extra star. So 11 stars out of 10.

Thank you very much for your comment Lee. This is definitely worth a visit.
Gary your shows have become one of my must-watches on youtube, each one excellent and you're the perfect gentleman, honest, straight, knowledgeable and no pretention.

Thank you very much as always Rosie. On this occasion the food was outstanding. Definitely one I highly recommend. Please have a wonderful weekend and take care. 🌹🌹
So glad that you got to try the cuisine of my birthplace, Kerala!.
Has always been underrated.
Please do try the Kerala beef roast along with Kerala parotta when you get a chance..it's really good.
@thearvnd Is there good vegetarian food too from Kerala?
It's absolutely brilliant and I will do next time
@@rosemarymeeVegetarian meals (rice with a variety of vegetarian curries) could be your ticket.
IMHO, Kerala style biryani is very good. Try vegetarian biryani too.
@@TheDumbTake-xb6rr Sounds great! Are all the varieties of bread made with wheat?
@@rosemarymee No, there are many types - I think most uses rice in some quantities. Wheat, except in Kerala style parathas and some dosas, is not that common as it's not grown in Kerala.
Now, bread as in 🍞, yes it uses 00 flour or semolina or a mix of them.
Gary, totally agree with your review. I have also eaten here and the food is excellent.
You should have announced you were visiting Leeds we could have done a meet and greet 😊
Around Christmas time, I will revisit Leeds and do a meet and greet if anyone is interested
Looking forward to this gary
This was very good, Steve

I promise you, if you visit, you will not be disappointed ❤️
Eating there on Tuesday night after watching this, Thanks Gary.
Brilliant, let me know how it goes
@@GaryEats 6 of ate us there last night and all of us were blown away, the place was packed out and you always have a slight concern that standards may drop, but those fears were completely unfounded. I started off with the Chilli Paneer which set the bar high for flavour and presentation which only got better with the arrival of my Kerela Curry. Outstanding meal and well recommended with a very reasonable cost for the quality. Cheers again Gary for the review!!
