Chetna - this series has been amazing and I’ve tried to go to as many of the places you suggested. I hope you continue highlighting amazing places to eat. Inspiring
I am so happy to see this video! We came to the temple and then ate in the restaurant after , last summer when I visited London…and yes we had tali. It is very satvic food…do not expect high restaurant dishes…it’s simple and humble….I loved it 🙏🙏🙏🙏
For good & cheap vegetarian eats in the city centre Govinda's has become one of my go-to places!!! So much veggie food in the city is stupidly expensive
One of my fav places in Mumbai is Govinda's at the ISCON Temple here. Yes! The food is amazing n Satvic. Being a Meditator/Vegetarian it suits me perfectly. Thanks for introducing me to this place in London. I hadn't heard of it. Please continue wd this Series.. It's heartening to know dat there r so many Indian Restos out there. Here, they are vanishing as ppl r more into Cafes n Mc Do kinda places. A very Happy Holi to u dear Chetna. Stay Blessed..
I so love visiting all these restaurants with you Chetna!,,,, I only wish I could enjoy the food myself!! Lol lol I all ways get so hungry watching you consume all the wonderful foods!😁👍🙏🏻
Please.... we are interested in your personal choice: the restaurants that you like, not a list of all the restaurants in London (I know it is impossible!!). That is the most interesting and valuable information for many of us! and very kind of you!!
Hi... super ! Have you tried the Mowgli chain... l was impressed.. I live near Toulouse & there's nothing that l'd call real Indian tastes.. very disappointing for a self-taught (thanks to Madhur Jaffrey's books..) aspiring Indian-style adventurous cook since the 70s... I'm English & have never been to lndia, being vegetarian l'd have loved Govinda's Thali... Still l can enjoy this through your vids ..Many thanks Chetna ..please keep it up, & l love your cooking vids too ❤
To each their own but I didn't like the food at Govinda's. I decided to eat at the restaurant after praying upstairs. I found the food to be quite bland, it didn't have enough masala in the food. Saying so, it's a good place for people who find Indian food to be too strong.
@@IndianBollywood1 the food is tasty, but different times, there are different people around the world may come and do some cooking service. Buying food there it's a donation, it's for Krishna. It is pure veg, no onion or garlic which we human should not eat according to holy scriptures to make actual spiritual advancement. Thanks
Nothing to do with Jainism, although it helps them as well. Hinduism has a philosophy of believing that you are what you eat. The recommendation is that people eat “saatvik” food. Food that aids in spiritual growth and reduces your appetite for animalistic instincts. So it is recommended you avoid meat, alcohol,fish, garlic, onion, drumstick(moringa fruit) and a few other vegetables.
"Oldest Indian restaurant in the UK." Over 35 yrs.... So I flew into London in 1970, year I was to finish college, and a friend of a friend had hooked us up w a Brit born in India as part of the Raj who took us to a little hole in the wall for an Indian lunch. What might that restaurant have been?
I'm sorry. I was not trying to cause any trouble. I love your channel and was just curious. I'll go back and see if you addressed that issue and I'd missed something. @@FoodwithChetna
@@jbirsner these are not my restaurants and I am going by the information that has been given to me by these places. they are not claiming to be the oldest Indian restaurant but they are the oldest indian vegetarian restaurant
The best food to enjoy. No meat, no fish, no egg, no garlic, no onion. Food for the soul. Many people including me travel form far away to eat. Eating this food cannot be compare to any other food.
Can you please explain the no garlic or onion in this diet? Because that’s not part of the vegan diet to me 🤷♀️ they are the two most used flavour enhancers right? I’m not convinced and after watching the rest of the video, I don’t think you are either 😉🙏
Spiritual or blessed food is vegetarian & does not contain onions or garlic . These two vegetables are not eaten generally by religious people in Hinduism ❤
Fantastic series I love it…. Please keep it going. But this is not the oldest Indian restaurant in the uk or even london, that’s an absolute lie. I’m a born and raised Londoner in my mid 40’s and there have been Indian restaurants here long before I was even born. This guy is saying he is the oldest in the uk because he has been there for 35 years 😂😂😂😂😂😂
This clearly shows that you were not listening properly because no one claims this is the oldest Indian restaurant in the UK but it is the oldest vegetarian restaurant in the UK, atleast know the facts......
The restaurant is dirty and only has a hygiene rating of 2 out of 5 and hygiene need improvement. I personally do not eat at such low hygiene rated restaurants .

😂😂 oops
Hare Krishna Mataji! Aren’t the renovations to the temple room really beautiful too ❤❤?
Yes they are
Please.... we are interested in your personal choice: the restaurants that you like, not a list of all the restaurants in London (I know it is impossible!!). That is the most interesting and valuable information for many of us! and very kind of you!!
Yes these are my personal choices but like I said in the video that I want to cover different kinds of places
everything looks delish ...! 🙏✅
It was too!
Love it and you should definitely go to the manor in Watford x it’s wow ❤Hare Krishna and thank you for your series x I love all your episodes.
Thanks a lot
Amazing food ...
Address of places would help. We’re traveling to London soon and can’t wait for good Indian food. Watching and enjoying from Northern California.
I am sharing the website of the restaurants and all you have to do is click and get the address for yourself. Thats what google is for 😂

I subscribed today. thanks
Welcome to the channel
Jai Shri Krishna 🎉🎉🎉
You must cover Birmingham's Indian food outlets also..There are plenty
yes
To each their own but I didn't like the food at Govinda's. I decided to eat at the restaurant after praying upstairs. I found the food to be quite bland, it didn't have enough masala in the food. Saying so, it's a good place for people who find Indian food to be too strong.
I felt like the food there would depend on who is cooking as there are different people in the kitchen
@@FoodwithChetna possibly, maybe I'll give it another chance.
@@IndianBollywood1it used be really good but it is light! Hare Krishna ❤!
@@IndianBollywood1 the food is tasty, but different times, there are different people around the world may come and do some cooking service. Buying food there it's a donation, it's for Krishna. It is pure veg, no onion or garlic which we human should not eat according to holy scriptures to make actual spiritual advancement. Thanks
@@jyorah4432how about no dairy as well where the milk only exists cause we impregnate the cows.
Is there a reason for not using onion and garlic?
Yes as it makes it Jain friendly
Cause it’s supposed to be satvic food which doesn’t consider use of onion or garlic.
Nothing to do with Jainism, although it helps them as well. Hinduism has a philosophy of believing that you are what you eat. The recommendation is that people eat “saatvik” food. Food that aids in spiritual growth and reduces your appetite for animalistic instincts.

@@aprilblossoms4thanks for explaining I don't think I would do very well long term but I'm sure the food is delicious.
Not in London but check out the Atma Lounge in Cardiff 🙏🏻
👍🏼👍🏼

it would be useful if you watched properly.......

@@jbirsner these are not my restaurants and I am going by the information that has been given to me by these places. they are not claiming to be the oldest Indian restaurant but they are the oldest indian vegetarian restaurant
Shiuli, delhi social in twickenham
👍🏼👍🏼
Kalpna in Edinburgh opened in 1975 - according to their website. So that would make it the oldest veg Indian restaurant in the U.K. if true
These are not my restaurants and I am just going by the info they are giving me 😂
Oh I know! ❤ It was just an FYI as I live in Edinburgh and they have been around since my husband was a teenager
The best food to enjoy. No meat, no fish, no egg, no garlic, no onion. Food for the soul. Many people including me travel form far away to eat. Eating this food cannot be compare to any other food.
it was good
Plz try Blue Ginger Gujarati restaurant 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
👍🏼👍🏼
I must say, I like the food, but the chai was very poor, which surprised me. The lassi is pleasant, but not typical
the thing with this restaurant is that a lot of people are volunteers so everyday a different person is cooking
@@FoodwithChetna interesting! I had no idea :)
❤❤❤🇮🇳🙏
😍
❤
🙏🏽
You should definitely pick your favorite amongst every restaurant you’ve been to in the last episode!
👍🏼👍🏼
Hi As a chef can i get job there ? I am a good chef in Mughlai cuisine from india lucknow
ask them!
Why is it onion and garlic free?
Still watching.
There are some religious groups in India who don’t eat onion,and garlic,so in the place they usually use Hing(Asafoetida) in a very small amount.
Cheta , i know you promote Indian food , Would be interested in trying Pakistani cuisine...??
Firstly I am Chetna and currently I am just focussing on Indian food, maybe one day
@@FoodwithChetna , apologies for name incorrect CHETNA G
🕉️🙏🕉️Yum yum yum must check it out.
👍🏼👍🏼

Hare Krishna! They adhere to the Vaisnav diet!
Its a satvik diet!
Spiritual or blessed food is vegetarian & does not contain onions or garlic . These two vegetables are not eaten generally by religious people in Hinduism ❤
Eating with your left hand…?! 😳🫣😯😐
Chetna, You are very beautiful.
😊 thank you
