While I had explored quite a bit of Indian food so far on my trip to New York City, I hadn’t had much Indo-Chinese food. I decided to remedy that by heading out to Queens to eat some of this savory and unique fusion food. Come with me as I try Indian Chinese food in Queens, NYC!
For this epic food adventure, I linked up with my cousin Paulina to take her to Tangra Asian Fusion, which serves delicious Indo-Chinese food! Indo-Chinese cuisine originates in the city of Kolkata, West Bengal, India. Chinese people who immigrated to Kolkata brought their food with them, but started making them using Indian ingredients and spices!

The owners of the restaurant are from Kolkata and Darjeeling. They make everything from chow to momos, which are dishes I’ve enjoyed in northeast India! The restaurant is named after the Tangra region in East Kolkata, which was home to many people of Hakka Chinese origin.
Inside, it looked like a traditional Chinese restaurant. We met with Shi Kai, Yulan, and Ina, and then headed into the kitchen to meet Chef Peter. He made us some Tangra Masala Soup, chicken lollipops, mango lassi!
The Tangra Masala Soup is like an egg drop soup with sriracha, chicken, shrimp, cilantro, and tofu, and the lollypop chicken is a chicken wing where they remove the second bone, push all the meat to one end, and batter and deep-fry it.
The mango lassi was tasty and not too thick, with fresh pieces of mango on top. The soup had the perfect amount of spice. It’s tangy without being overbearing, and is full of flavor. The lightly fried chicken lollipops came with a creamy orange sauce and was crispy and herbal. It was so good!
Back in the kitchen, they made us a few more dishes, including a sweet and spicy Georgia chicken with sesame seeds; chili chicken with ginger, garlic, and onions; fusion tacos with chicken; gobi salt and pepper; a sweet and spicy Szechwan paneer, Tangra masala fried rice with shrimp, and chicken momos with green chutney.
I learned that chilies, garlic, and ginger are the main ingredients in Indo-Chinese cuisine! First, we jumped on the fusion tacos, which contained an incredible tzatziki sauce that made my mouth water!
Next were the momos with cilantro chutney that was almost like a Mexican salsa. Next were the Thai basil noodles with chicken, shrimp, and beef. I could smell the chilies in it! I loved the chewy and refreshing glass noodles and spring onion! They weren’t too spicy, either!
Then, we jumped on the Georgia chicken, which contained a lot of cinnamon! We also tried a mojito with mint. Then, we tried the fried cauliflower with chilies and the tangra masala fried rice. The rice contained chilies, egg, peas, onions, and shrimp and was pretty mild.
The chili chicken had a dry sauce and contained chili seeds. It was really tasty! Then, we tried the Szechwan paneer, which is cubed cottage cheese. It’s dense and the cheese balances otu the spice level of the Szechwan masala.
We ended our meal with chai kulfi with cardamom and saffron, and rose kulfi. The chai one was amazing and also contained cinnamon. The rose contained raisins and was a little fruity. They were both amazing! The chai reminded me of a coffee ice cream!

Love the way Paulina slowly gets into the Indo-Chinese food 🤩
Thank god she does not have long nails, that whole long nail thing is so disgusting these days
Chinese and Indian food is an amazing combination. Your cousin did well with her spice tolerance, at least better than I expected 🤣 great video as always!
Thank you!!!!
@@Davidsbeenhere SAYING THAT LADY ABOUT DARJEELING WAS A WRONG REFERENCE. PEOPLE FROM DARJEELING ARE INDIANS, WHEREAS THAT LADY IS DEFINITELY AN INDIAN BUT MIGRATED FROM CHINA. SO THEY ARE CHINESE IMMIGRANTS. SO YOUR REFERENCE SOUNDS LIKE SAYING A GERMAN AS BRITISH BECAUSE SOMEHOW THEY ARE LOOK ALIKE! SHARED IT JUST TO LET YOU KNOW.
THIS IS TANGRA STYLE INDO-CHINESE FOOD FROM KOLKATA. TANGRA IS A PLACE IN KOLKATA, WEST BENGAL.THE FORMER CAPITAL OF INDIA. A LOT OF CHINESE IMMIGRANTS WERE SETTLED IN KOLKATA. YOU KNOW IT DAVID BUT SHARING FOR OTHERS.
@@Davidsbeenhere boss you ar doing gr8 promoting Indian food more than the Nri bunch staying their....I had seen youtubers from west with reaction videos having million subscribers....Hope u will have 10millions subscribers and please do visit other parts of India in ur next trip
David is like me.... My nose starts running whenever I eat anything hot... Instead of the spice... Just because a food is freshly made tickles my nose more!
I am from Tangra, Kolkata, formerly Calcutta. Used to live amongst the tannery. Went to Loretta Bow Bazaar girls' day school in the city.
from your episodes i have figured it out that you are finding a reason to eat Indian food by bringing new people to eat with all the time.
Going to do this everyday!!
@@Davidsbeenhere you are amazing
@@Davidsbeenhere you have eaten more indian dishes than indians themselves.
Looks David is going to make whole of America try Indian food atleast once..
🤣🤣
INDIAN & CHINESE FOOD is THE ULTIMATE 🙏
I love you David please help follow me I'm a foodie..they are coming to india

Tangra is the name of the area in Kolkata where the Chinese immigrants settled. It's also referred to as Chinatown by some. One can try a huge variety of Chinese food there, both fusion and authentic.
Davis said that .!!!
@@liveandletlive3636 A few comments here told me people didn't know that.. hence the comment for their benefit. :)
Yeah, I have been there once!
Most of Chinese who came to India were hakka people from Fujian province. We even have a dish known as hakka noodles.

When you're dinning with lady don't rush ,looks like your cousin was struggling to catch up 😂
It's his show...
Tangra and Tangri (🍗) the two things, Indians cannot live without.
😋
Only in Kolkata
@@Anonymous-lu7xr Also Delhi. Come to my city and see that for yourself 😊
@@shomabhattacharya7515 My reference was about Tangra that's a place in Kolkata not Delhi.
@@Anonymous-lu7xr and my reference was about the tangri 🍗 that delhiites cannot live without
@@shomabhattacharya7515 Yeah I got that but for kebab Lucknow is more known to the people than Delhi. Delhi is actually for butter chicken.

Whenever in Kolkata we like to try authentic Chinese cuisine, we go to Tangra, or famously known as the China town
Ohh, now I'm craving for indo-chinese food

I wish I had visited this restaurant when I used to leave in NYC did not know about it then. Now I move back in Greece any suggestions about Indochinese food iin Greece? Thanks for sharing David!!
Good food videos, seems like a good guy aswell, keep up the good work bro. RYYYYYT.
As i am indian all these dishes look yummy and delicious.
I am from Kolkata, after this video now I have to visit Chinatown for some delicious indo Chinese food.
You have to go Bricklane in the city. In Queens, go try Punjabi Kabab & Gyro on 101 Avenue. Their chicken tikka masala, special biryani and naan is really good. They have halal food too and it is awesome. Its a small joint but very delicious food.
You need to try😋😋 rabri sweet after meal
Awesome
David is having fun with his cousin in an Indian Chinese food have fun and enjoy the food, thanks. LOL.
