- Lucas goes to the city of Artesia with the family behind BADMAASH and embarks on an Indian food crawl. Brothers Arjun and Nakul Mahendro, along with their father, Pawan Mahendro take Lucas to a handful of places they believe get Indian food right.
They start at Julio’s, a pizza place that specializes in pizzas topped with chicken tikka. Then they go to Podi Dosa for idli and dosa, staples of southern Indian cooking. Their last stop is Surati Farsan, a dessert and snack shop that features Jalebi and chai. Lucas talks to the BADMAASH guys about what makes a great curry, how to define fusion cuisine and the impact of social media on the restaurant world.

LOVE THESE VIDEOS BRO
these videos are awesome. youre an amazing host!
keep up the good work! have enjoyed every video so far!
Lucas Peterson I hope you make healthy eating part of your section
Go vegan guys peace and love.
Finally someone out there has this idea that indian recipies don't have mother sauces
Fo real. They need to come down to Florida and teach them here a thing or two.
The host didn't get it. Clueless
I love when their Father speaks Punjabi to him to make space for the dosas. Real OGs right here.
The food talk is so true. So true. Every ratio is different, every complexity is different
Love from Amritsar!
a drink brings out the intellectual in them. hence the ritual. lol
Lucas... the best host.
Love the way he respect other cultures..
Ryoya Kaneko yeah, he is a great listener, but isn’t afraid to ask questions or speak his opinion
I have worked in India and fell in love wish dosas. Great interview Lucas - AsianFoodNerd
that punjabi :
mien aise kakre paper dosa order nahi karda !!!
I agree with one point.I have experienced in Australia that every single food in every Indian restaurant taste the same. Indian restaurant outside India use a lot of shortcuts they use the same sauce for every cuisine from butter chicken to palak paneer. It is an insult to Indian Cuisine and people loving that food is more weird. Some of my friends who were from UK also pointed out the same.
In Indian cuisine, every cuisine has its own unique sauce and their is no mother sauces in Indian Food.
"Dope Indian Joint!" love that!!!
Yeh, it sounds ok in the hood but come on man, people won't take that seriously. He needs to he more clever about it
Big Fan of it. Black/Indian
Good to see some Canadian boys killing it in LA
Amateur cook here with a fantasy concept: Uno, Dosa, Tres.... Mexican Indian... FUSION!?!?!!!!
DO IT!
I am going to steal that
Yes please.
Vader ramn - it’s been a thing in LA too, but it’s the name and taking it to another level and a semi joke. Kinda like my other idea, Au Jus Lato... meat flavored gelato or Meatballs Deep... a meatball house shop a la Meatball Shop in NYC.
You can only test it out to be sure
You kept it real. I can't express how much I appreciate that. Thank you.
Another great video Lucas! Thanks for introducing us all to fun new places to explore! Keep it up and can't wait for the next one!
Awesome video. Interesting to hear their perspective and see the food they like to eat
Love these guys. This is def a bucket list spot whenever I go to LA.
I love these Lucas food jounalism pieces!!
Badmaash translates more commonly as Naughty rather than hooligan or rascal!!
The word has, quite a range of meanings.
So glad to see you back on yt lucas.
I love your shows! I was wondering where you went after not seeing you on Eater.
same here!
10:29 - TWSS 😂, also this was such a great episode I want all this food!
I seen these dudes on other food channels their food looks pretty bomb but I live more towards SD one day I’ll try it
Another smash hit thank you Lucas appreciate you I will go try this
indian food has been a big thing in the uK like forever....
yep, indian people and food has a much longer history in the uk though, just like mexican food has in us
@@TheProcrastinator6 Yep colonisation will do it
Love to know that everyone like Indian food, being a southern.. dosa hose with any this.. if it's with CTM it's great.
Oooh! I want to read the Fan Fiction and see the Macaroni Fan Art! Macaroni Lucas! But, if I can't have that, I'll settle for seeing lots of great looking food and listening in on conversations with some interesting people. Thanks!
Chicken tikka poutien sounds dope
Excellent job Lucas👍
need to try out these places
The fried, funnel cake looking dessert is something we eat over here in Egypt, too! It's called "meshabek" which literally means tangled. Awesome to see it's enjoyed somewhere else in the world.
Fun fact, you guys also eat a thing called 'samboosa' which we eat in India too and it's called Samosa .
There's a traditional south Indian breakfast, which is also made in china, The world is way too small.
@@akashsasidharan9747 Isn't samboosa made in africa?
@@ashwin.unlead I think it's made in a lot of places and it's very popular here in the Indian Subcontinent .
@@akashsasidharan9747 yeah, I just googled it, it's mostly in southeast Asia and North Africa.
Oh boy these look good! 😲
A new perspective on Indian food. Simple but clarified
Toronto, represent! Lucas, create questions and create conversation. Dim the lights!
Wow Ultimate South Indian food rocks California
Love it!
Lucas, I will follow you to any channel
luv it
Ugh, I'd way rather have the segment on Badmaash alone. That food looks great!
These guys full embody the Badmaash name; having eaten there it was a real pleasure and everyone's super friendly. Punjabi legends!
One of the fews reason I wanna go back to LA is to try all of these great ma and pa restaurants I never got to experience when I was living in San Diego
where are they getting martin's potato rolls???
Loved this episode
Im from Edmonton Alberta currently living in Sacramento
I will be down soon for a wedding and will definitely be coming by the spot
I really hope to see you guys out there i wanna buy 🥃🥃🥃🥃🥃
-Manny
Jallebis are lentil flour/water mix, deep fried them dipped in a sugar syrup.
That pizza❤ and you can NEVER go wrong with Indian food😋
I don't think they know what they want to say.
Toronto represent, WE THE CHAMPS!
lucas you're a great interviewer, i loved this video :))
What's the name of the song when the guys are cooking?
Did you ever find out?? Tried looking for it myself. No luck
Lucas is an amazing jost
Nice to see some Markham (Ont.) boys making a name for themselves..!
Ahmed, Toronto had some of the best Indian food, I have ever eaten. Vancouver had many Indian Sweets cafe or counters. Both LA and Toronto have good food scenes. Surprised more people don't know about the Toronto food scene
Lucasssss. I miss youuuu
Saint Jadoon I’m here! No need to miss me!
i want to know why the fork and the knife?
What is the song that play's at 5:13? Tried to Shazam it.
Did you ever find out?? I tried looking for it myself. No luck.
Indian food is one of the best in the world.
FYI, TH-cam viewers and dining on a dime viewers love Lucas. Including his face on the thumbnail would surely drive up views. Thanks.
Masala dosa, masala on the side... #stan
I would like to try Indian food, iam MEXICAN so as yall know iam going to be very hard to please because my culture has great food. Now let me tell you iam open to try anything because I love food can anyone recommend a dish that is delicious to try first i love steak or pork.
there is nothing like typical india food...every state in india has its own cuisine...only fine dining restaurant can serve authentic indian dishes in US. in india we have mexican food and it taste different from what you get in mexico because of change in ingredients. because even bell pepper or wheat flour is also completaly different in india than in west. only if someone import the raw stuff then its possible to serve authenic food which tastes good.
10:00 uncle g spitting facts:paper dosa ese lai main order ni karda
Does this restaurant serve south indian food?
Please dear god, will someone tell me what songs is playing @ 5:14?
Did you ever find out? I tried looking for it myself. No luck.
May be after eating Indian food he may get some energy..The VLog was good but the energy was low
Long live LA!
Spanish translation,
"Viva Los Angeles!!"
Mother base sauce is big problem in Indian restaurants too. Completely wrong method.
Hahaha. MOGAMBO KHUSH HUA.
That's globalization, eating in an Indian restaurant with mexican cokes
Wheres the best indian joint in los angeles?
this guy is so drunk XDXDXD
Yo he’s so drunk. But thank you for the recommendations on the spots
How was the food though? There was really no mention of the food lol .wheres mikey chan? Lol
👨🍳
I did not like it. It was full self-aggrandizing.... Just kidding - love your stuff, Lucas! You really know your food and how to pull the best out of people. I subbed here just to see more of your stuff.
If you didn't like it keep it to yourself LMAO
That dosa spot has 2.5 stars out of 5
Damn I was gonna subscribe but there ain’t no food just talking 😔
Badmaash seems to be an authentic representation of where the Mahendro family came from and who they are individually. If I ever get to LA it will definitely be on my list of places to try out. Nakul's type casting of white Americans view on authenticity bums me out. Unfortunately, there's always going to be ignorant customers but does that justify stigmatizing the entire Caucasian population?
Adam Rogers I didn’t catch where he stigmatizes white people??? Authenticity is doing what they think is good and with heart.. and I mean their restaurant has a bunch of fusion dishes that would not be considered “authentic”.. and I don’t think it’s bad to not know what authentic dishes from a certain culture are..no one outside of that culture expects you to know or be familiar with their kind of food.
@@thoughtdistorted @ it's pretty blatant "America...white Americans". He even corrects himself to exclude any other American subgroup. Regardless of his view I couldn't agree with you more. People looking for food and experiences that are unfamiliar to them is important and part of what makes living in this country incredible! Whether that food is considered culturally, regionally, or personally authentic is beside the point. Having the desire to learn why something is important to someone else is what matters, I think.
Yes
@@adamrogers8325 Well.. America is mostly white and average Americans probably haven't had traditional "authentic" -name any ethnic food...These "ethnic/traditional" restaurants are just not for the typical White American population.. You're not going to naturally go out of your way to go to a Chinese joint for some jellyfish salad and roast duck - unless you saw an article or an Asian friend took you. The average person isn't thinking about the cultural implications of that. I think it's great that people are beginning to think it's important and representation in food matter. And I think that is their whole reason why they opened their establishment to provide GOOD Indian food that is accessible to everyone.
Actually the base sauce thing exist in india as well i mean the same taste in almost all the currys.
Amritsar :---- the greatest city in the world ..😎😎
Instagram kinda ruined our expectations of food. We eat with our eyes and not our taste buds anymore.
Pineapples on pizza is whack!
Buzzfeed chicken watch
ALWAYS pineapple on pizza
Just show the food than all the pointless talk.....!!!
This isn’t “Indian” food.
PINEAPPLE BELONGS ON PIZZA 🍍🍕🍍🍕🍍🍕🍍🍕🍍🍕
Never trust a indian chef whose favourite food is pizza with pineapple topping 🤮🤮🤮🤮
sound aint that good fam :(
Looks so unhealthy, like they said so many choices in LA...
Yea it's not..please read up about it
in US unhealthy is always best selling...but thats not unhealthy.
horrible backgound music
