Pondicherry BRUNCH (Breakfast + Lunch) Food Tour - French Breakfast - Vadacurry
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 15 ก.พ. 2019
- The beautiful Pondicherry also known as Puducherry, is one of the most vibrant places we have been to. This place is an amalgamation of a number of cultures owing it to the different colonial rulers. Pondicherry has been under the control of the Portuguese, the French, the Dutch as well as the British, which is what makes this state distinct. Some of the most popular foods in the region are in fact French or Portuguese.
Keeping all things in mind, we began our journey in Pondicherry along with our lovely host Haksheta Rajasekar, at the Baker Street. We tried the classic croissant with a twist of Tandoori Chicken and the perfect breakfast combination of eggs, ham and cheese in a quiche. The flavours may not be too scintillating to the Indian palate that is used to a hefty dose of spices but nonetheless, these dishes were mouth wateringly delicious!
Our next stop was the Murugan Cafe where we tasted a unique uthappam with an even more unique accompaniment. The cashew uthappam is made with a lot of ghee and cashews giving it a very nutty texture, and served along with is a Vadacurry. The cashew uthappam was crispy yet super fluffy and we learnt that like all good things in life, the vadacurry was made by accident when the cook mixed a few leftover vadas with stew.
Then for a pick-me-up we visited the Sri Sai Ram Coffee Bar for some Filter Coffee. Like we always say- ‘a trip to South India is incomplete without a cup of Filter Coffee.’ The Filter Coffee here, is super strong and is the perfect way to awaken your senses.
Later we reached J A Arcot Biryani Hotel for some out-of-this-world Biryani. The chicken biryani here is made with long grain basmati rice unlike the short grain rice which is popular in the region. The biryani has a strong flavour from the ginger and garlic and is absolutely delicious. This biryani style is popular in Arcot, which is a small district in Vellore. From here we went on to explore the famous Gourbet market. The market is named after the first Chief Minister of Pondicherry, Édouard Gourbet. The market is filled with varieties of colourful flowers, vegetables and spices. Here we discovered the different types of Banana leaves and their different uses, and Mor Milagai which is chillies soaked in buttermilk that makes it salty and then sun dried. To beat the heat we tried the Neer Mor, which is just what you need on a hot summer’s day. We even visited the Fish market where you get some of the freshest variety of seafood.
Then, we moved on to a place called Irfan Restaurant. This is located in a Muslim dominant region, which is to say the food is absolutely divine. Here we tried the Nei Parotta, Nei means Ghee in Tamil, which simply means the Parotta is fried in desi ghee. It is served with Mutton Saalna or curry, and we also got the Naati Khozi Fry/ Desi Chicken Fry. The combination of these three things is to die for! You can get this same combination evene early in the morning for breakfast or you can go for the slightly healthier option and try the mutton saalna with idiyappam.
Finally, our lovely food tour came to an end with some rocking Sherbet. R K Juice Centre is known for serving the Paal Sherbet that is made from condensed milk, milk, nannari sarbath, sabja seeds and almond gum. This drink is served completely chilled, it is healthy and super refreshing! So if ever you're in Pondicherry and hoping to find more some local food options, don’t forget to visit these places. Trust us, you won’t be disappointed.

y the hell u mentioning t again nd again.. do you mention the word decent or knowledgeable to North indian guides ever..
i think not knowing about our state.. bcoz u r not knowledgeable craps..!! dats t..
@@mevithabiku9203 you need to relax and think optimistic and read what is written......many viewers have just tried to elate these two gorgeous ladies from Tamil nadu and Pondicherry for their neat English explanation without any artificial glimpses unlike done by the other food-guides of other parts when compared....its appreciation and Elation of the presentation of both in comparison to others.....yes people have not written like this for the so called "North" that you mentioned.....because they were not found as presentable as these two......Alright?....please sit back and relax and stop pessimistic thoughts.Is this the height of negativity?.....you just like that come to your own preconceived notions?....please stop such negativity.....and also stop categorizing "South-North"and all.....it's all about food and life-style.....should love and respect each-other.....and no one Is knowlegable scraps here......every human is still learning knowledge in one or the other way....
@@bramaramba-3893 y cAn't u say t to other states.. damn
@@mevithabiku9203 hey damn you....what are you up to? ...why are you so jealous of these two women when praised?....
The local hostess is authentic. Comfortable in her skin, genuine and most importantly, competent in her role.
Haksheta is too good in taking you to different places of pondy. She is the best host so far among all your programmes.
Haksheeta is too good.. no make up ..no over acting.. typical tamil girl.. very knowledgeable
tamil blacky
@@tanvee1842 Excuse me? We south Indians are sure dark and she's beautiful
@Madhav Kopalle Like all indians she is racist towards herself only.
@@tanvee1842 Ur sick..idiot
@@tanvee1842 unbelievable . Racist mofos make the internet unpleasant
One of my proudest senior haksheta ma'am whom shall I ever admire. ✌️
Your host truly knows the answer to the food of Pondicherry...
Yet another lovely host...after the one in Madurai...take a bow
Man ur attempts to speak Tamil every single stop is such a sweet gesture
@@korrapatiraghavendrara try
This lady is so knowledgeable, it's awesome. Thank you mam & thank you Anubhav for sharing all this info. I will surely try to visit a few of these places
11:57 she threw the spoon and became a complete tamizhachi😋😉
Good observation bro
he he she got pissed off with the plastic spoon.
typical tamilachi!!!
it would be better if tamizhachi had food in separate banana leaf
yes i noticed too..🤣
I like the term " deeply fried" instead of deep fried. It makes it feel emotionally significant in a silly but truthful way.
Pondicherry is a foodie heaven,it's a fusion of many cultures...
Hakshetha should start her own TH-cam food channel...
Great video. Hakshetha was a wonderful host.
Haksheta is precise and clear ... My votessss to you sister!!
She is such a wonderful host ❤️❤️
I've made a note of these places and visited them during my trip this march and absolutely loved them. THANKS ❤
Excellent narrative by the Pondicherry host
We are visiting Pondicherry in a few weeks from Brisbane, and this vlog is very helpful, thank you for your thorough explanations. The food looks fabulous and we can’t wait to visit there.

Tipus sons
The Actual First " SEPOY MUTINY " was in Vellore , 1806 by BRITISH-INDIAN Sepoys of Vellore Fort ;
on behalf of Tipu's imprisoned Sons inside the Fort 👍👍👍

Exactly she took all no.1 place of Pondicherry foods n drinks also.... thanks for the lady show perfect place to view everyone ❤️❤️❤️❤️
The best part us they share the food...what a beautiful heart...God bless
French cuisine is like "Emperor with no clothes". Nobody likes it but nobody dares to call it out.
Lol straight from the heart
French bread and cakes are good but there's it.
Yesss
Perfectly worded
@6:40 southern TN (Dindigul, madurai and deep south) use sambha rice for briyani while northern part of TN (chennai, vellore, arcot) use basmathi...
Correct... well said
A right
Basmathi is for Biriyani. Samba rice is
for pilaf.
My mouth is watering!! And the guide is very professional and knowledgeable!
Few Places I won’t miss Whenever I Visit Pondy are Zuka , Bread Street and Aristo Restaurants , Bread and Chocolate in Auroville, Goubert Market in Nehru Street , and Fav Catering Shops in between Nehru Street and Kutti sandhu next To AVR SWARNA mahal .. And Kozha Kattai and Sundal sold by the ladies in Nehru Street .. and Beef Pakoda in MG Road 😋😋😋Aatu kaal soup in MG Road but near Railway station 😋😋
Lived in Pondy for 1.5 years , brings me Good memories
Ma’am u r amazing doing hosting with all of ur heart
I like Puducherry. I just decided to visit out of nowhere in 2019 and stayed for two weeks. Enjoyed walks on the beach, looking at the French colony, observing sort of laid back life of citizens. My day would start with either Sri Murugan Cafe or Surguru. I loved Murugan cafe more, liked the beat root halwa in Indian Coffe house. Looking forward to visit again in 2021.
Hi, could you suggest some budget friendly places to stay?
Lovely vlog... great detailing....good description... Happy to see you have improved a lot .....now eagerly waiting for your vlog.....
Wow Pondicherry is nice. Im from jaffna n i would like to visit one day.
Hakshetha I really appreciate your efforts 👏👏👏
Hakshetha u r hosting wonderfully.
Best wishes ☺️☺️
Anubhav call a man Anna, it's sweet to hear,
Very professional and informative video. The team and the hosts deserve to be complimented for a precise and compact production. I plan to visit Puducherry in Jan 2023 and this video is very helpful. Thank you!
Anubhav and hakshetha...sharing food I loved it .. keep it up guys....😍😍😍😊😊
The way of presenting the food is really nice 👌 and keep it up ...
The best part is... you are so simple with no drama....
One of the best decent food review ever and no overacting I like that
Very good information and host is too good as Praveena in Madurai tour
Anubhav I like your simplicity, host is really genuine. You both have missed aristo restaurant...
I went to Pondicherry twice but without having an idea where to eat.... Thanks for the video... Now I wont miss these food joints....
Just Now I am eating parota with pepper beef from Irfan hotel, sultanpet, Pondicherry..what a coincidence that I am watching this video'...she was good and took him to every important places..
🌺🌷🌺Namasthe Bhai 🌺🌷🌺Thank you so much for wonderful video about Pondicherry. Love to see your videos. Keep it up and all the very best Brother 🌺🌷🌺
Wow my Pondy 😍😍
The host as well as the traveller are very decent. The lady is knowledgeable and calm. Very nice
Thanks. I am in Pondi often so this is helpful.
The filter coffee is making me drool!!! Need to make another visit to TN especially Pondicherry soon.
Agree! South Indian filter coffee looks so good. I am from Singapore and have always wanted to try it but I don't think its available in my country. There are Indian restaurants here that sell "Madras Coffee" though. I think that is different.
@@rohmaxy9901 I think in Singapore and Malaysia the version we get is Madras Coffee but to me the taste in TN is unbeatable.
Madurai is the best place for Filter coffee. U should come here once.
@@rrr0723 Madurai is in my bucket list for the beautiful temples as well as the good food:-)
@@rrr0723 Thanks for the suggestion. I must make a trip to Madurai then since I love coffee so much :)
Really your South Indian tour, just awesome!!!!!
Today this video appeared on timeline, enjoying watching it, but was missing something - The MASK.
And then looked at the release date --- ohhhh the good old days !!! Saved it for reference for our future visit to Pondicherry.
Idiyappam with mutton curry!! Just listening to it I am in heaven🥰🥰🥰🥰
I would personally like to appreciate the effort you put in to talk in the host language. All the very best with your future endeavours. SUBSCRIBED....

Like the video a lot, the beautiful lady was excellent in beer describing the places as well as the food, I wanted to se a video off simple street food and this helped me find some.
Wow both are so polite. :) What a cute show. Loving your simplicity anubhav. Amazing. Too bad I discovered this show just today. It's beautiful :*. I've been to all those places :)
Hey welcome to my hometown💐

The host lady reminds me of Yourself when you were hosting food traveler in Delhi n lko. as I said earlier, your calm behaviour n selection of genuine hosts is the key👌🏻👌🏻
Keep it up buddy👍🏻👍🏻
Hakshetha Rajasekar good host, keep it up.👍

Very Knowledgeable and welcoming host unlike , Bangalore . Enjoyed the video

Vadakari..my favourite😋
@@maniratnem2631 Mikka nandri Udanpirappaana thamizhaney😀
Love this channel although am from Pakistan...
Trying to speak the local language is really beautiful.....and the host is very good
Cool just loved it i love all of your videos as I like to explore new places and new cuisines.thanku you sirji.
This girl explains very well.In that coffee bar,that uncle sprinkled sugar stylishly.And that biryani is bae.
I already told you this, buy 2 plates, eat separately
maybe because they eat so many varieties they share...
And who pays for the food that they try...... the host, the guest or the channel ?
@@seemarajderkar3019 they are making videos, they should pay, unless the host agrees to pay
And waste 2 plates of food?
@@rajasthanprasang9825 Buy one dish, pay for extra empty plate and eat without doing ecchal/enjil/jhoota - totally workable and hygenic.
I loved this channel, thanks 😊
I really like your videos that's focused on just food irrespective of the ambience which is what Indian food is all about...
Lovely .. Banana leaf......
Very informative and tasty looking video...your host was one the best...very knowledgeable lady...did you go inside auroville?
Beautiful show
Thanks 🙏
Very nice Anubhav and I particularly ur videos with Trevor.
Hostess has done perfect job.

I like this video a short but good trip to Pondicherry
Dear Hukshitha, I saw this video few months back as I am also interested in experiencing food in TN. Today your dad said it is you and now I can relate you and your lovely attitude in this video. You did extremely well. It was with boldness and clarify explaining Pondy food. Great Job! I didn't know Pondy and didn't expect that it is this beautiful. Looking forward to see many more like this.
