Big Forkers Hunt for the Best Butter Chicken in Delhi | Moti Mahal vs Daryaganj |
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 27 ส.ค. 2024
- Join The Big Forkers on a mouth-watering investigative journey through Delhi as we hunt down the ultimate butter chicken! It's a battle of the most legendary restaurants of arguably one of the most famous dishes in the world. We taste them all and crown what we believe is the best Butter Chicken in Delhi and probably the World.
We also decided to take on the case between Daryaganj and Moti Mahal which revolves around a legal battle over the rightful ownership and use of the term "Butter Chicken." Moti Mahal, an iconic restaurant established in Delhi in 1947, claims to have invented the famous dish. Daryaganj, a newer establishment, asserts that their founders were the original creators and have the right to the legacy. The dispute has escalated into a court case, with both parties presenting historical evidence and testimonials to validate their claims. The outcome will determine not only who gets the official recognition but also who can market their culinary heritage as the true originator of Butter Chicken.
The Big Forkers took the decision into their own hands and made their opinion known in this video. They have also asked some of their friends to lean into this decision:
Who will win the butter chicken battle? Watch and find out

Exactly the same reaction I had eating Moti Mahal butter chicken, lmao. Invented the dish and then forgot how to cook.
You guys do it every single time. Simply superb! I am a vegetarian, but I love watching all your videos and this one was just outstanding. It has become a tradition that I need to have a plate full of food while watching your videos. It is an absolute pleasure witnessing your love and passion for food!
Awe, thanks bud
Thanks for the lovely comment Rishil
As a progressive Delhiite I have no problem with Shanky eating fried rice with butter chicken.
It's still a crime in some countries
I love fried rice with butter chicken 😊@@TheBigForkers
As a conservative Delhite i totally support eating fried rice with butter chicken
Love the banter in the comments
No one was eating this combination until Shanky mentioned it. Now all you guys have opinions on it. WTF?
The genuine friendship between you two is the absolute best part of all of this. Love it, make more! I'm absolutely loving this whole food tour series, please keep doing more of these! However it does also make me ridiculously hungry 😇
Sid and Shanky are first cousins
Thanks for the kind words
Ever since the last 2 weekends, I have been grabbing a cold one and watching your videos. It's incredibly fun!
Glad you like them!
Can we remove these Mumbaiwalas from this comparison?
Man there is no such thing as a Mumbaiwala or a Delhiwala , it is all a naive thing
Nobody removes anyone, they should know what Delhi is cooking lmao
I agree, these Mumbaiwalas who make dal tadka with curry leaves. 😂
@@anurag123B curry leaves se bhi problem hai?
@@kaay358 Dilli waley dhabo ki daal fry mein curry leaves nahi dalti. Amti madhey takli nahi taar sambar madhey takli tar theek ahey. 🙂
In the vibrant tapestry of Delhi's culinary heritage, Butter Chicken reigns supreme-an epic saga of tender poultry enveloped in a luxurious cloak of creamy, spice-infused richness, embodying centuries of flavor and tradition- thank you guys, memories relived! Love from Doha 🇶🇦 Qatar!
Nice writing
@@TheBigForkers shukraan!!! 🙏
Excellent English writing skills
CHATGPT ASF!!!! xd
🤓🤓
The owner of house of mandarin in the end lol
😂
Sid : I am only watching you,
I am only watching you,
I am only watching you.
Shanky : ………
Sid : fuck it ill try once.
Epic stuff
Hahaha it happens often
What can I say :)
Im a Dilli wala vegetarian and yet the way you have presented chicken of havmore is amazing
As a mallu myself…totally understand shankys obsession with egg fried rice and butter chicken bro…absolutely a killer combo…delicious!!!😋
Share the same obsession as a Bong. 😊
I love it as a Mumbaiwalla
Shanky fan club
You folks have great taste 😋👍👌🎉🎊
Only Chef Saransh got it right. It's the invitation in Ashok Vihar, especially their boneless version, where they pull apart tandoori chicken so that every part is covered in that rich gravy. It pairs very well with the butter naan, which is garnished with dry coconut. Only true foodies of Delhi know the other two places, as they are not in tourist areas.
We have to try it. Though the dry coconut has me worried
Huh.,.
I think butter chicken needed an episode with two clear comparisons and opinions form those many foodies.,.
Feels like a complete episode
Cheers
Best episode till date
+1 for fried rice with butter chicken. Would love to see Kunal & Cyrus as guests on a future episode.
Lets ask them
You guys are an awesome duo. Vivacious, fantastic content, humour in the videos.
Rocky-Mayur and HOMP and the shows that followed featuring both of them were my go to shows.
My limited observation from watching your videos makes me believe that you guys love Antony bourdain. It has that but of that 'chaap'.
Nice to have new bunch of foodies dishing out content in their own inimitable way! Cheers guys! 🤟🤟🤟
We are being us, but yes we too feel this is in the same vein as Bourdain.
Love your content since day 1, House of Mandarin collab was pure nostalgia
Keep it up!!
Hahahaha, thanks for watching and being part of this tribe for so long
The ultimate guide to Butter Chicken, they should make this part of culinary school curriculum. Minus of course the egg fried part of course 😀😀
Culinary schools may need to update their curriculum with a Butter Chicken guide, minus the egg fried part, of course!
House of mandarin!!! An unexpected collab😂😂😂
Hahahaha
Rachel you legend
Butter chicken fried rice gang assemble 🤤
Please dont encourage Shanky
House of Mandarin owner at the end, EPIC!
She is such fun
The food still sucks
Why people not liking this content? You guys are amazing.
We have a quality audience, is how we cry and tell ourselves :)

Invitation ( ashok vihar)

Gulshan (shahdra)
Are the underrated ones must try
Thanks for sharing
The content keeps getting better
Thank You
I am glad you guys are back.
Good to be creating content again
I love these videos!! Watching from Austin, Texas
Hey Nick, thanks for watching
Damn I’m watching from Austin Texas as well. Small world
Awesome, I did a short series from Austin. Covered a few spots including Franklins BBQ. With my friend Adi.
Love to see how honest they were about the food…
Cheers, only way we know how to do this
Nice one bro. You should do one episode on fried rice v/s naan with butter chicken
Thanks for the idea!
@@TheBigForkers 😂
I’m 50 and have been having chicken all over Delhi . Both these at Panadra road have changed their butter chicken numerous times over a period . However both of them are not famous for butter chicken . Olsen says when they were small dhabas their desi chicken curry was the only thing they sold .
The original butter chicken of Delhi remain Moti mahal / Jama Masjid road , old Delhi .
However - one of the best chicken curries is - Rajender da dhaba next to the old Kamal cinema complex in Safdarjung enclave . Try it ! You will thank me .
Cheers
Rajendra is no longer good. I'm 47 and Havemore and Pandara are the golden standard. Did you see the testimonials at the end of the video
i fw these guys heavy‼️‼️‼️‼️the best out there 🪩
Thank You
Kindly try KUMAR Butter Chicken Moti Nagar , New Delhi , adjacent to Natraj Cinema.
Great video guys! The "yeeaaah" at around 4 min 24 secs sounds like lead singer and guitarist of Metallica, James Hetfield's "yeeaaah " he does while singing😂
Hahahaha quite the catch
I m from Delhi and I never experienced butter chicken so closely but by watching your video I think and feel that Havemore butter chicken looks more tempting 😊
You should definetyl go and try it
U can also try the butter chicken of kays pitampura. I m sure it will the fair competition to others
Thanks for the recommendation! we will check it out.
You guys are the best !!!
Thanks
My favourite butter chicke was from a small shack called Sanjaa in Bund Garden, Pune ... tonnes of absolutely great memories. It has to be a tandoori chicken which is deboned and then blended into the gravy for me and I prefer it with plain tandoori rotis :) Fabulous episode guys you brought back a tonne of memories
Thanks Kurush
What garden?hhhhe
When Sid started tasting Moti Mahal at 13:47 he said BC in a neutral accent. However, at 14:04 the way he says BC sounded more like Pancho closer to the city's food you're reviewing, precisely, the Punjabi way of saying it.
The power of Punjabi food
Love to both my brothers ❤
I support butter chicken with chicken & egg fried rice 🫡… It’s a combo you can’t miss 😋
My man🍺👍
House of mandarin owner unexpected 🤣🤣🙏🏻
You guys never disappoint. Entertaining always 💐💐
Thank you
Moti Mahal is also heavily franchised, it is possible you guys ordered from a franchisee who doesn't care as much. Just my two cents.
Quite possibly so. But that's a brand and quality management issue then.
Disclaimer: No Gujaratis were harmed in the video. All sweet prejudice stems from Meethi Dal, which is considered to be blasphemy.
Hahaha, true
You guys NEED to try butter chicken from ‘in the Punjab’ in Delhi. It is next level.
Will try it next time
Need these episodes in at least 2K! 🙃
Cheers
The best butter chicken I’ve had in my life is from Pelican Pub here in Mysore, Karnataka. I’m Mysorean and I’m sorry that’s about as far as my horizons go because I haven’t travelled at all. Every Saturday from 1999-2002, my dad would pick me up from school and we’d drive to Pelican Pub to get our routine takeout order of butter chicken and chilly chicken. Good times.🤌🏻✨✨
I would love to try it
Mumbai butter chicken : boiled chicken in tomato gravy !
8:20 Mumbaikar Shanky experiences flavours for the first time
He did
Did both of you tried all these butter chicken same day or was there a gap of a day or two ?
If yes then doesnt it effect your judgement while rating since all the day you have been consuming the same food ?
The one you have to try - the only one comparable to Havemor is Pal Dhaba in Chandigarh.
As someone who has been on many a quest to find a great one, that’s top tier.
Shanky and I nearly had our arse blown out after a meal at Pal's dhaba
woooohooooo my favourite havemore is ranked the best! hands down the BEST butter chicken ever
My favs in delhi for butter chicken
1. National cp
2. Gulati pandara
3. Sanjha chula kailash colony
Thanks for sharing...more options are always better
It feels like I'm the one eating the food. You both are great ❤️.
Thank you 😋
You guys are amazing good stuff, being a vegetarian would love videos on vegetarian food also although I have not seen all the content in the channel, will go through! Very nice video
There are a few, very few, but there
Both Gulati and Ichiban restaurants were destroyed in a fire.😢
sad to hear
Havemore Gang approves!! Fried rice and butter chicken is bomb. and if you want to get blown away try Veerji in naiwala market for their tawa meat.
We have heard about its legend. Next trip
Just curious if you tried from original Moti Mahal in Daryaganj? I still have great memories about the place..Gulati over Havemore for me..Rajinder Da Dhaba also serves yummy butter chicken..❤
OG us really awful now
The giant has good knowledge of food, meat with bones... identifies correct stuff and knows what would Delhi people like. Gentle giant (GG).
Also these days cloud kitchens are making phenomenal bc , should try it some time.
The Giants name is Sid :)
Bhai kya jindgi hai Dilli ka butter chicken maze hi maze , Dilli ka seekh kababs maze hi maze, dilli ka korma aur nihari maze hi maze 😋
Man the big guy sounds like boman irani but two absolute legends in the video
Hahaha will share this with him
On my last Visit to Delhi In April This year we went to Darya ganj in Gurgaon i think sector 87 same plaza where Karim is,The butter chicken was not good at all.I was not Happy with their chicken Tikka also.
@@kamaljitwadhawan191 Did you try the Original or Today's?
havemore is the best. Way he explained Moti mahal was so true
Anyone who knows meat, knows the bone ones are better.
One more Rockey n Mayur 😅
Amazing video guys... And I'm with Shanky, I like to eat butter chicken with fried rice ❤
Lots of team Shanky folks on this comment section :)
Real food journalism.
Cheers, just sharing our thoughts on it
The Moti Mahal you’ve tried is the one which happens to be at the same place where Gujral & Jaggi started but it isn’t owned or operated by anyone from the either family.
The Gujral owned Moti Mahal is known as Moti Mahal Delux!
I’m surprised how the producer looked over this fact.
Food was brought from Moti Mahal Delux. As you can see on the box. Footage showed the original one for context sake.
What??? Gujratis eating butter chicken bro your info is so wrong Gujaratis if Mumbai are mostly vegetarian and jains. So don't make such racist comments.
Gujjus are a race?
And learn a joke or two ....smile
Racist comments don't bring a smile. It's a total misconception that all Gujju food is sweet. Kathiawadi food is not at all sweet it's spicy has garlic and has a lot of chillies.
It's a gluttony show. 😂😂😂
Saw the thumbnail and thought you guys were rocky and mayur 😅
We sent this message to them....they are the OG's
General consensus of some south Delhi guys -Best really is havemore ....Also goila bc is average,try bhookemon,sandos ... They are different but really good.
Always more to try. But Havemore has always been a Delhi standard. North or South Delhi.
Thank god he eat with fried rice in the end 🙃
Love your content. Keep it up!
Appreciate it!
Sinply love your style of vids.
Cheers, we love making them
Loveddd this episode 😂😂
Thanks for watching
What fun
Cheers
The nation wants to see more of Sid vs Shanky episodes!
Thanks Vinay
Hey guys,
I tried the Butter Chicken at Khyber in Mumbai. Very un-Mumbai like. Try it out.
we will thanks @shanky
Shanky's blasphemy!!!
Name of a movie
As a long time Havmore hater and Gulati’s fan i can say that Havmore has the better butter chicken but because of nostalgia i go to Gulatis everytime
Fair enough mate. The difference is tiny. Nostalgia is equally important.
Memories matter
tbh it depends on moti mahal’s outlet, the south ex one is pretty good also you guys should try butter chicken from sandoz cp (L block)
Will try that out
Havemore - OG 🔥
Havemore.
Being a mumbaikar who has eaten butter chicken in delhi i would choose havemore
welcome to team Havemore
Delhi tote bag
When it came ???
Danm that girl 😂 owner of house of Mandarin and she was saying sid don't know chinese food 🤣🤣
Rachel Goenka is a treasure and super funny
@@TheBigForkers damn i don't know the forkers were friends with the owners of the outlet
We became friends much after the House Of Mandarin came out. About 2 years later.
Havemore pandara road was my fav too till I tried Baba's butter chicken in Ludhiana
Would love to try it
The after credit scenes- shows the depth of community. Loved it, dk why the fuck aren’t you guys are blowing up
Good things take time I guess, we're are also gobsmacked
Love your content!!!
Thank you so much for your support!
Havemor makes the best butter chicken. Like they should be given the title “makers of best butter chicken”
True
M the owner of MOTI MAHAL DELUX DWARKA CITY CENTRE MALL SECTOR 12.. PLEASE COME AND HAVE OUR BUTTER CHICKEN ITS DIFFERENT FROM ANY OTHER MOTI MAHAL AND ITS THE BEST
Hi Abhi, cool, will try and tell folks to try ity. Im sure its better than what we ended up eating.
Chicken Inn by a long mile. Wonderful citrusy undertone which cleans your palate with every morsel. Pity the forkers were so close and didnt try it out.😢
next time
They just settled the butter chicken debate fair and straight
Janhit mein jaari
Anybody else who think BABA butter chicken is underated
Try the butter chicken of chickenette
“…. Like every other anchor in the country!” 😂😂😂
Hahahaha glad you caught on to that. Lots of Easter eggs in this episode
Havemore ❤️
Team Havemore for the win
Lucknow.
Why is the camera in this season always smudged😐😐
We used 3 different FX6 with multiple lenses. The statistical probability of every camera and lense being smudged in in the 1 in 10's of millions.
@@TheBigForkers producer bhai needs new filters.apologies if offensive🫡🫡
Loved the previous vids contrasting and clarity❤️
Saala producer ko marte hai...:)
None taken bro
Havemore is the best. Good choice
Thanks for the love! Havemore for the win!
