00:00I have seen someone eating, that is Riddhiman Saha.
00:03Okay.
00:03I saw him eating once, it was his plate.
00:06He had butter chicken, roti, salad and rasgulla.
00:10Okay.
00:11I saw he took 2-3 bites of roti and naan.
00:13He ate salad and then a spoon of rasgulla.
00:16Recently we had a trip to Paris.
00:19So there was my worst food experience.
00:21For vegetarians that was a nightmare.
01:01Delhi's food or Mumbai's food, which one?
01:03Earlier I used to think Delhi's food is the best.
01:07Which was fair for me because in Delhi...
01:09Mostly I have spent all my time in Delhi.
01:11The food is amazing.
01:12So I thought there are no places in Bombay.
01:14But I was proven wrong.
01:15Even in Bombay there are such good places to eat.
01:18I wasn't aware that street food is so good.
01:21Street food is amazing.
01:22I think both places have their charm.
01:23If we talk about nostalgia, do you remember any typical food from school?
01:27I remember only 2 things.
01:29One is the memory of school.
01:31There was a rickshaw in our school.
01:33Okay.
01:33It had bread pakodas.
01:35Saunth ki chutney.
01:36And those bread pakodas, I didn't get to eat them again.
01:40I don't know why.
01:41Because I experienced it for the first time in my childhood.
01:43But it is still in my memory.
01:45And the other one was corn puffs in Delhi.
01:47Yes.
01:48Nutkut.
01:50Those were my favourite.
01:51What about you?
01:52I am very fond of samosas.
01:54I remember there was a shop outside our school.
01:57They used to sell samosas and chole there.
01:59Then we used to ask them to give us some chumantar.
02:01Chumantar?
02:01Not chumantar, some chaat masala.
02:05But if I talk about your experience.
02:08Your best and the worst experience.
02:10Food wise?
02:10Food wise.
02:11I will tell you about my worst food experience.
02:13Recently we had a trip to Paris.
02:16So that was my worst food experience.
02:18For vegetarians that was a nightmare.
02:20Okay.
02:21There were not many options.
02:22Best was actually we had been to Bhutan.
02:24Organically grown.
02:25Local vegetables.
02:27You know wild rice.
02:28They call it the Bhutanese farmhouses.
02:30Okay.
02:30So what is their concept?
02:32You climb up the stairs.
02:33They have small huts.
02:34They call them farmhouse.
02:35They grow their own vegetables down there.
02:36Wow.
02:37So they plucked out organic vegetables.
02:39We sat and ate with them in their house down there.
02:41And that was our best food experience.
02:43Okay.
02:43What about you?
02:44What about you?
02:44What about you?
02:45What about you?
02:45What about you?
02:46What about you?
02:46What about you?
02:47What about you?
02:47What about you?
02:48What about you?
02:48What about you?
02:49What about you?
02:49So that was our best food experience.
02:51What about you?
02:51What about you?
02:52I remember the worst.
02:53I remember the worst.
02:54I remember the worst.
02:55I went to Hong Kong.
02:58So what they gave me,
02:59I apologize.
03:00When I got the smoke of it.
03:03So after that I went back like a matrix.
03:05I said,
03:05I can't eat this.
03:06I can't do this.
03:08But I am doing the best here.
03:10I think this is amazing.
03:11This is amazing.
03:12The weirdest food you have eaten
03:14or seen someone eating.
03:16People make combinations of food.
03:18I haven't eaten the weirdest food.
03:19When I was a kid,
03:20I was very fond of
03:21going to the kitchen
03:22and mixing something.
03:24I never drank it.
03:25I mean, I took a cup,
03:26added hot water.
03:27In that,
03:27coffee,
03:28creamer,
03:28in that,
03:29chaat masala,
03:29salt,
03:30lemon,
03:30milk,
03:31turmeric.
03:31I was mixing it.
03:32Nothing was happening.
03:33So looking at it,
03:34I used to think,
03:35if I drink this,
03:35then there is no recovery after this.
03:37I have never consumed it.
03:38But I have seen someone eating it.
03:40That is Riddhiman Saha.
03:41Okay.
03:42I saw him eating it once.
03:43It was his plate.
03:44He had kept butter chicken.
03:46There was roti in it.
03:47It was his salad.
03:48He had kept rasgulla with it.
03:49I saw him taking 2-3 bites
03:51of roti and naan.
03:52He ate salad.
03:53After that,
03:53he ate 1 spoon of rasgulla.
03:55So I said,
03:56Riddhi, what are you doing?
03:57He said,
03:57I eat like this only.
03:58Sometimes,
03:59he eats ice cream.
04:00With rice and lentils.
04:01I mean,
04:01and together.
04:02Not by finishing it.
04:032 bites of his,
04:041 bite of ice cream.
04:05I mean,
04:06creativity can be used
04:07in other places too.
04:08I think.
04:08Yes.
04:09Please.
04:10Okay,
04:10you haven't used a chopstick.
04:12Hmm.
04:12Huh?
04:14I...
04:14I came from a big style.
04:16I had learnt it in my childhood.
04:17Hmm.
04:18You have to eat it with a chopstick.
04:19You have to sit like this.
04:20Have a look.
04:21Always just take it like this.
04:22Okay.
04:23You have to do it like this.
04:24Okay.
04:24After doing like this,
04:25after doing like this,
04:25you have to come like this.
04:27Okay.
04:30So you are the one
04:31who I was 3-4 years ago.
04:33I had learnt till here.
04:35I used to eat only
04:36when people used to turn around.
04:37Brother,
04:37when I went to the restaurant
04:38for the first time,
04:39I saw this.
04:39I asked.
04:40I said,
04:40Mom hasn't come yet.
04:41Why did you send her?
04:42Give her cola too.
04:44But,
04:45I don't know.
