If you are to taste DAAB CHINGRI, 6 Ballygunge Place is the all time winner for me.
Oh! You are road/bylane/every part of kolkata, including our Neabourhood area kalighat. Very funny and wellcome.
You don't eat Chingri Malaikari with chutney ๐ญ๐๐ฝ
Undoubtedly other biriyani don't even compare. Hyderabadi biriyani ain't shit don't even bother trying it.
mitra cafe restaurents pan & oil is so dark that not good for health ๐ฎ๐ฎ๐ฎ๐ฎ
Mango chutney is meant to be eaten at the end.

Really enjoyed the video, guys!
The prawn curry in the coconut shell looked absolutely delicious! The people seem so nice and friendly ๐!
U seems to have a indian spice proof stomach ๐

No where in India beef biriyani is popular, in Kolkata too beef biriyani is not popular as beef eating is religiously forbidden for Hindus. You should visit a no beef restaurant and try mutton or chicken biriyani to check authentic taste of Kolkata Biriyani.
The most funny thing is when you were eating the fish fries and at background the people are using cutlery
I am also from Kolkata and I can give gurantee that those people never use cutlery while eating fish fry
Great video โคโค
โคโคโคโค๐๐๐๐๐๐๐
โคโคโคโคโค๐ ๐๐
โคโคโคโคโค๐ ๐๐
Bro at first know how toh eat the dish , then you fell the,
Beef is dry and not juicy
Tel means oil and bhaja means fried
These are spicy hot items, have it in moderation in the evening not in the morning.
