00:00:37,454 --> 00:00:39,414
Let me tell you something about yoga.
8
00:00:39,497 --> 00:00:40,540
Just be comfortable.

you can keep it extended.

[traditional music playing]
14
00:00:50,675 --> 00:00:52,719
This is called the thunderbolt posture.

Nope.
16
00:00:54,304 --> 00:00:56,806
It's very, very difficult for me.
17
00:00:56,890 --> 00:01:00,643
My butt cannot reach my heels,
and my head cannot reach the mat.
18
00:01:01,269 --> 00:01:04,272
You have to get into positions
and then hold them.

00:01:04,355 --> 00:01:05,857
[instructor] Yes. Very nice.

[Phil] There's nothing like taking a boat
45
00:02:15,385 --> 00:02:18,596
and sailing into the port
to the Gateway of India.
46
00:02:20,265 --> 00:02:23,643
This iconic structure
was completed in 1924
47
00:02:23,726 --> 00:02:27,355
and makes for an impressive arrival
to the city of Mumbai.
48
00:02:28,189 --> 00:02:31,151
I have always wanted to go to India,
49
00:02:31,234 --> 00:02:33,778
but people who've been
have said I need to be ready
50
00:02:33,862 --> 00:02:36,364
to experience all of life, all at once.
51
00:02:36,906 --> 00:02:40,326
Rich, poor, beautiful,
crazy, overwhelming.
52
00:02:41,786 --> 00:02:45,415
And then you have the food,
which is an adventure on its own.
53
00:02:45,498 --> 00:02:48,585
My Western stomach
might not be quite ready
54
00:02:48,668 --> 00:02:50,670
for what I'm going to experience here.
55
00:02:50,753 --> 00:02:54,257
So I've enlisted the help of an old friend
to navigate my first stop,
56
00:02:54,340 --> 00:02:55,884
the city street food scene.
57
00:02:55,967 --> 00:02:57,886
This is a new experience for me.
58
00:02:57,969 --> 00:03:00,054
Well, we're going to have a good evening.
59
00:03:00,138 --> 00:03:03,766
[Phil] One of the best Indian restaurants
in London is called Dishoom.
60
00:03:03,850 --> 00:03:05,268
We showed it on the show.
61
00:03:05,351 --> 00:03:07,896
-Oh, wow!
-[Phil] And the founder is Kavi Thakrar.
62
00:03:09,147 --> 00:03:12,358
He traveled to Mumbai to take me
to some of his favorite places
63
00:03:12,442 --> 00:03:14,235
around Mohammed Ali Road,
64
00:03:14,319 --> 00:03:17,155
believed to be named
after Mohammad Ali Jauhar,
65
00:03:17,238 --> 00:03:21,492
an Indian Muslim activist, who organized,
alongside other leaders, like Gandhi,
66
00:03:21,576 --> 00:03:23,369
for this country's independence.
67
00:03:23,995 --> 00:03:26,998
[Kavi] We're going to this fabulous place
called Surti Bara Handi.
68
00:03:27,081 --> 00:03:30,084
It's been around since the 1940s
for good reason.
69
00:03:30,793 --> 00:03:32,503
[Kavi] Bara Handi means 12 pots,
70
00:03:33,004 --> 00:03:36,758
and as you can see in here, these guys
have 12 different types of stews.
71
00:03:37,258 --> 00:03:40,261
Mutton nahari and paya.
Mutton here doesn't mean lamb.
72
00:03:40,345 --> 00:03:42,138
-[Phil] What does it mean?
-[Kavi] It's a goat.
73
00:03:42,222 --> 00:03:43,181
[Phil] Ah, I love goat.
74
00:03:43,264 --> 00:03:46,476
I love goat too.
So you've got the soft, fuller shank stew.
75
00:03:46,559 --> 00:03:47,936
That's called nihari.
76
00:03:48,519 --> 00:03:51,940
I've got the paya here,
which is goat trotters, as we say.
77
00:03:52,023 --> 00:03:54,192
Both those come with bone marrow on top.
78
00:03:54,275 --> 00:03:56,110
Really rich, really filling.

-I'm glad you enjoy it.
87
00:04:14,170 --> 00:04:16,673
I don't know what I like better.
They're different stews.
88
00:04:16,756 --> 00:04:19,300
It's not just they put different meat
in the same stew.
89
00:04:19,384 --> 00:04:20,718
These are completely different.
90
00:04:20,802 --> 00:04:23,388
[Kavi] The base spices
are like well-kept secrets.

Wow, it tastes like
you're in someone's house.

the center of everything,

where the traffic includes cows?

There seems to be room for everyone.

When you were developing Dishoom,
129
00:06:02,278 --> 00:06:05,698
were you basing some of it on stuff
that you found on this street?
130
00:06:05,782 --> 00:06:06,741
Totally.
131
00:06:06,824 --> 00:06:09,243
We really love to share
the comfort food of Bombay.

for people that know this place.

-Yeah.

-Yes.
-Which is a brain curry.

-We can give some to Richard too. [laughs]
-We're giving a lot to Richard.

like this as well, right?

Pav is the greatest thing on earth.
I don't know about that.

-You.

-Okay. I love it.
-You've had it already.

-I know I like the bread.
-[Kavi] Soft, pillowy, white.

It's gonna test
your one-handed eating skills.

00:07:10,513 --> 00:07:13,724
I can do it. Look at me, Richard.

00:08:03,774 --> 00:08:05,610
-Good.
-Thank you. We're moving on.
174
00:08:06,194 --> 00:08:07,778
[horns honking]
175
00:08:07,862 --> 00:08:09,780
[traditional music playing]
176
00:08:10,573 --> 00:08:13,117
[Phil] With the sun setting,
it's time for dessert.
177
00:08:13,201 --> 00:08:15,411
On to the next stop on Mohammed Ali Road,
178
00:08:15,495 --> 00:08:18,873
which, if you can believe it,
gets even more crowded at night.
179
00:08:19,373 --> 00:08:21,459
-[Kavi] We don't use sidewalks.
-[Phil] I see.
180
00:08:21,542 --> 00:08:23,336
[Kavi] Yeah, 'cause they're busy
with people.
181
00:08:23,419 --> 00:08:27,215
I don't know if you're gonna be able
to hear anything we said on this road
182
00:08:27,298 --> 00:08:31,511
because the honking
from every scooter and every car,
183
00:08:31,594 --> 00:08:34,430
it's like if your introduction to New York
184
00:08:34,514 --> 00:08:37,975
was Times Square on New Year's Eve
185
00:08:38,059 --> 00:08:39,143
during a heat wave,
186
00:08:39,852 --> 00:08:42,772
and then multiply that by a hundred.
187
00:08:43,689 --> 00:08:46,108
We're just round the corner
from the next place.
188
00:08:46,776 --> 00:08:48,444
-[indistinct chatter]
-[horns honking]
189
00:08:50,404 --> 00:08:51,280
Dessert.
190
00:08:52,573 --> 00:08:55,326
We've got mawa jalebi
and mawa gulab jamun.
191
00:08:55,409 --> 00:08:59,580
Syrupy donuts slightly warm,
and they're like little bits of heaven.
192
00:08:59,664 --> 00:09:02,875
My mom makes delicious ones of these,
which are mawa, a milk solid.
193
00:09:02,959 --> 00:09:04,794
It has milk powder in the batter.
194
00:09:04,877 --> 00:09:07,171
-That's a beautiful donut.
-Isn't it amazing?
195
00:09:07,255 --> 00:09:09,465
-Yeah.
-A bit of fried goodness in a sweet syrup.
196
00:09:09,549 --> 00:09:13,052
I would never... Thank God you're here.
How'd you find this?
197
00:09:13,678 --> 00:09:15,721
Followed my nose. Try the next one.
198
00:09:15,805 --> 00:09:16,764
All right.
199
00:09:16,847 --> 00:09:17,932
[Kavi] So this is a jalebi.
200
00:09:18,015 --> 00:09:20,685
Normally, these are bright orange.
You may have seen them.
201
00:09:20,768 --> 00:09:21,686
[Phil] Funnel cake.
202
00:09:21,769 --> 00:09:24,105
Similar. But because of the milk in it...
203
00:09:26,148 --> 00:09:27,191
it goes brown.
204
00:09:28,276 --> 00:09:30,736
-There you go.
-This is a sweet ending.
205
00:09:30,820 --> 00:09:33,447
-You're a sweet guy.
-As are you. Thank you.
206
00:09:33,531 --> 00:09:36,158
[horns honking]
207
00:09:36,242 --> 00:09:38,494
[traditional music playing]
208
00:09:38,578 --> 00:09:40,955
[Phil] I've heard people call Mumbai
"Maximum City,"
209
00:09:41,956 --> 00:09:43,040
and it is.
210
00:09:43,124 --> 00:09:46,836
There's 21 million people
living in and around Mumbai.
211
00:09:47,837 --> 00:09:50,798
And India, as of this recording,
212
00:09:50,881 --> 00:09:52,174
has just become
213
00:09:52,258 --> 00:09:55,553
the most populous nation
on the face of the earth.
214
00:09:56,387 --> 00:09:59,223
The crew and I put India
over the top when we arrived.
215
00:10:00,558 --> 00:10:03,144
But the growth of this area
didn't happen overnight.
216
00:10:03,227 --> 00:10:05,563
The city of Mumbai
has been an important center
217
00:10:05,646 --> 00:10:07,648
of religion and trade for centuries.
218
00:10:07,732 --> 00:10:12,111
In the 1500s, the Portuguese took control,
then later the British.
219
00:10:12,194 --> 00:10:14,488
Back then, the city was known as Bombay.
220
00:10:14,572 --> 00:10:17,700
But in 1947, the British were expelled,
221
00:10:17,783 --> 00:10:21,954
and in 1995, the official name
of the city was changed to Mumbai,
222
00:10:22,872 --> 00:10:26,125
which was a final little bon voyage
to colonialism.
223
00:10:27,501 --> 00:10:30,421
[traditional music playing]
224
00:10:30,504 --> 00:10:32,423
[Phil] I'm going to try to explain this.
225
00:10:32,506 --> 00:10:34,592
There's a delivery service
throughout Mumbai.
226
00:10:34,675 --> 00:10:36,552
They're called dabbawalas,
227
00:10:36,636 --> 00:10:39,221
men on bicycles,
who pick up home-cooked lunches
228
00:10:39,305 --> 00:10:43,351
from women across the city
and deliver them to hungry Mumbai workers.
229
00:10:44,143 --> 00:10:46,062
Now why is this incredible?
230
00:10:46,145 --> 00:10:48,397
Let's say your wife
makes a delicious curry,
231
00:10:48,481 --> 00:10:51,400
but the paratha is better
from your friend's wife at work.
232
00:10:51,901 --> 00:10:53,778
The dabbawalas have figured out a system
233
00:10:53,861 --> 00:10:57,740
to get you that curry or that paratha
to you at your office.
234
00:10:57,823 --> 00:11:01,786
They deliver all the components,
and it could be four or five
235
00:11:01,869 --> 00:11:05,081
mixed and matched and assembled
to over 130,000 workers
236
00:11:05,164 --> 00:11:07,124
across the city every day,
237
00:11:07,208 --> 00:11:10,044
not using a phone, not using the internet.
238
00:11:10,127 --> 00:11:13,047
It's all word of mouth,
and they jot it down.
239
00:11:13,631 --> 00:11:15,132
These are the dabbawalas.
240
00:11:16,092 --> 00:11:18,844
What would it be like
to live a life like that?
241
00:11:19,845 --> 00:11:20,846
[doorbell rings]
242
00:11:20,930 --> 00:11:24,100
[upbeat music playing]
243
00:11:35,528 --> 00:11:37,613
[indistinct chatter]
244
00:11:44,745 --> 00:11:46,580
[horns honking]
245
00:11:55,089 --> 00:11:58,384
I am now an official Mumbai dabbawala.
246
00:11:59,844 --> 00:12:04,265
On behalf of my fellow dabbawalas,
I couldn't have done it without you.
247
00:12:10,938 --> 00:12:13,274
-How many times have you been here?
-[Ethan] Very many.
248
00:12:13,357 --> 00:12:14,984
-[Phil] Very many?
-At least 15.
249
00:12:15,067 --> 00:12:18,988
He was just saying,
"We should go back tonight, after, again."
250
00:12:19,071 --> 00:12:20,948
-[Phil] This is your favorite?
-Definitely.
251
00:12:21,031 --> 00:12:23,075
[Phil] I have a friend named Nigel Vaz.
252
00:12:23,159 --> 00:12:24,118
Love this guy.
253
00:12:24,201 --> 00:12:28,330
He's a New Yorker like me,
but he does business all over the world
254
00:12:28,414 --> 00:12:31,083
as the CEO of his company,
Publicis Sapient,
255
00:12:31,167 --> 00:12:34,587
and he's in Mumbai this week
with his wonderful son Ethan.
256
00:12:34,670 --> 00:12:38,883
They are taking me to their favorite
restaurant, Delhi Darbar.
257
00:12:39,383 --> 00:12:42,636
So, Ethan, you picked the menu.
You're my guide. What meat is that?
258
00:12:42,720 --> 00:12:45,097
-[Ethan] Uh, baby goat, pretty much.
-[Phil] I love goat.
259
00:12:45,181 --> 00:12:47,933
Do you know what the most
consumed animal in the world is?
260
00:12:48,017 --> 00:12:50,352
I thought it was goat
because Richard told me that.
261
00:12:50,436 --> 00:12:52,813
[Richard] That's such a lie.
-And then on camera...
262
00:12:52,897 --> 00:12:58,194
He wanted to, uh, make me look stupid,
so he corrected me in the show.
263
00:12:58,277 --> 00:13:00,988
And we left it in.
You know why we left it in?
264
00:13:01,071 --> 00:13:02,823
Because he's in charge of editing.
265
00:13:02,907 --> 00:13:04,366
[laughter]
266
00:13:05,242 --> 00:13:06,952
-[Nigel] This is amazing.
-[Phil] Great.
267
00:13:07,036 --> 00:13:08,788
[Nigel] It's basically, uh, nuts.
268
00:13:08,871 --> 00:13:12,291
There's a little bit of cream,
but it's a lot of cashew and almonds.
269
00:13:12,374 --> 00:13:16,086
Come on. This is great.
Ethan, you know things.
270
00:13:16,170 --> 00:13:17,755
[Nigel] It's interesting with India,
271
00:13:17,838 --> 00:13:20,925
there's like everything is turned
on to dial 10, right?
272
00:13:21,008 --> 00:13:24,303
Then when you actually get into it,
it's amazing subtlety.
273
00:13:24,386 --> 00:13:27,264
Like with food,
the flavors initially just hit you. Boom.
274
00:13:27,348 --> 00:13:29,934
Then you get under them,
and it's like, "Oh my God!"
275
00:13:30,017 --> 00:13:32,770
You know, I'm staying
at the beautiful hotel,
276
00:13:32,853 --> 00:13:34,980
and I'm looking at the Gateway of India.
277
00:13:35,064 --> 00:13:35,898
[Nigel] Yeah.
278
00:13:35,981 --> 00:13:39,193
But for me,
the Gateway to India is the food.
279
00:13:39,276 --> 00:13:42,363
Totally. There's just so much history
and culture, like immigration.
280
00:13:42,446 --> 00:13:44,323
We were talking about it this morning.
281
00:13:44,406 --> 00:13:47,493
Apparently in India, there was a king,
a thousand years ago or so,
282
00:13:47,576 --> 00:13:50,538
um, who had Persian people immigrating.
283
00:13:50,621 --> 00:13:54,416
The king sent, as a metaphor,
a bowl of milk to them
284
00:13:54,500 --> 00:13:58,045
and basically said,
"Look, the bowl is full to the brim."
285
00:13:58,629 --> 00:14:00,005
"As in, there's no more room."
286
00:14:00,089 --> 00:14:01,799
[laughing] "You guys have to go back."
287
00:14:01,882 --> 00:14:05,427
So one of the Parsi leaders
sent the same bowl of milk back,
288
00:14:05,511 --> 00:14:08,222
this time dissolved with sugar,
289
00:14:08,722 --> 00:14:10,766
saying, "We're not going
to take more room,
290
00:14:10,850 --> 00:14:12,810
but we'll make things sweeter and better."
291
00:14:12,893 --> 00:14:15,479
Listen, all I try to do is say how
292
00:14:16,313 --> 00:14:20,276
immigration and the mixing of cultures
makes everything better.
293
00:14:20,359 --> 00:14:21,193
Absolutely.
294
00:14:22,611 --> 00:14:23,612
[Phil] What's this?
295
00:14:23,696 --> 00:14:25,281
The mutton pathani, no?
296
00:14:25,364 --> 00:14:26,991
-Yes. Pathani.
-Yeah, okay.
297
00:14:28,325 --> 00:14:31,745
-How is that? It takes that...
-Excuse me. Oh my God!
298
00:14:31,829 --> 00:14:34,081
-That's pretty good. Right?
-[Phil] Ethan!
299
00:14:34,164 --> 00:14:36,041
No wonder he wants to come back.
300
00:14:36,125 --> 00:14:37,793
-I wanna come back.
-[Nigel] Yeah.
301
00:14:37,877 --> 00:14:39,044
-I love it.
-[Ethan] Unreal.
302
00:14:39,128 --> 00:14:42,339
And you have business here.
You're the head of a giant corporation.
303
00:14:42,423 --> 00:14:44,842
-We built some of the first online banks.
-Yeah.
304
00:14:44,925 --> 00:14:46,802
And online retail businesses.
305
00:14:46,886 --> 00:14:50,681
If you think about most businesses today,
they didn't grow up in this digital world.
306
00:14:50,764 --> 00:14:54,476
So our whole raison d'être
is to help them thrive,
307
00:14:55,102 --> 00:14:57,146
not just survive, in this new world.
308
00:14:57,229 --> 00:14:59,607
[fire crackling]
309
00:14:59,690 --> 00:15:01,901
Wow! Tandoori chicken.
310
00:15:01,984 --> 00:15:04,737
[upbeat music playing]
311
00:15:04,820 --> 00:15:08,032
-You think this is okay to do this?
-[Nigel] Yeah. Oh, yeah.
312
00:15:08,115 --> 00:15:10,200
-[Phil] Wow!
-How good is that?
313
00:15:10,284 --> 00:15:12,745
[Phil] This is the best tandoori chicken
I ever had.
314
00:15:12,828 --> 00:15:13,913
That's great to hear.
315
00:15:13,996 --> 00:15:17,291
There have been times
when Ethan and I are eating this food,
316
00:15:17,374 --> 00:15:21,003
I'm saying, "Somebody like Phil
would really like this food."
317
00:15:21,086 --> 00:15:22,713
"How come he didn't come to India?"
318
00:15:22,796 --> 00:15:25,007
Somebody like Phil just got here.
319
00:15:25,090 --> 00:15:25,966
[Nigel] Yeah.
320
00:15:26,050 --> 00:15:30,387
I'll say it again.
If you like something, go to the source.
321
00:15:30,471 --> 00:15:34,808
Every meal I have, I say,
"This is the best Indian food I ever had."
322
00:15:34,892 --> 00:15:36,143
And now, this is the best.
323
00:15:36,226 --> 00:15:38,687
Hold on. There's always room for dessert.
324
00:15:38,771 --> 00:15:41,273
-This is... Oh.
-[Ethan] It's like a rice pudding.
325
00:15:41,357 --> 00:15:44,777
[Nigel] This is a little bit of saffron
and a pistachio in it.
326
00:15:45,736 --> 00:15:48,489
-[Phil] You knew about this?
-It's my favorite dessert here.
327
00:15:48,572 --> 00:15:50,616
I quit the show. It's his show now.
328
00:15:50,699 --> 00:15:51,742
[laughing]
329
00:15:52,660 --> 00:15:54,662
[traditional music playing]
330
00:15:59,750 --> 00:16:02,169
[Phil] It's no wonder
so many people flock to Mumbai.
331
00:16:02,252 --> 00:16:05,381
Everything's here.
It's the financial capital of India.
332
00:16:05,464 --> 00:16:08,384
It's home to the massive
Bollywood film industry.
333
00:16:08,467 --> 00:16:11,387
And when you have such
a big influx of people from all over,
334
00:16:11,470 --> 00:16:13,806
it's only natural
that cooks get inventive,
335
00:16:13,889 --> 00:16:15,557
and new dishes are born.
336
00:16:15,641 --> 00:16:18,477
So I'm excited to taste
a little cultural fusion.
337
00:16:19,228 --> 00:16:23,190
The top food critic in India
is named Vir Sanghvi.
338
00:16:23,273 --> 00:16:26,694
-Your résumé is very impressive.
-I made it all up myself. [chuckles]
339
00:16:26,777 --> 00:16:31,532
He's been kind enough to travel
from Delhi to Mumbai tonight
340
00:16:31,615 --> 00:16:35,411
to take me to one
of his favorite restaurants, Trishna.
341
00:16:35,911 --> 00:16:36,912
[Phil] Here we go.
342
00:16:36,996 --> 00:16:39,164
Do you know Indian food
at all from America?
343
00:16:39,248 --> 00:16:42,835
Yes. I have it at least once a week
because it's one of my favorite cuisines.
344
00:16:42,918 --> 00:16:44,253
-That's very unusual.
-It is?
345
00:16:44,336 --> 00:16:45,379
-Really?
-Yeah.
346
00:16:45,462 --> 00:16:48,340
Americans on the whole
don't know a lot about Indian food.
347
00:16:48,966 --> 00:16:51,093
Brits know all about it, or think they do.
348
00:16:51,176 --> 00:16:53,804
But Americans,
we're still sort of breaking new ground.
349
00:16:53,887 --> 00:16:56,932
-Have you been to Dishoom?
-I haven't been to Dishoom.
350
00:16:57,016 --> 00:16:59,852
I want you to go for breakfast,
and I want you to have this...
351
00:16:59,935 --> 00:17:01,520
-I'll never wake up in time.
-No?
352
00:17:01,603 --> 00:17:03,939
-[laughing] I'm not a breakfast guy.
-He'd make this for you.
353
00:17:04,023 --> 00:17:08,485
It's basically a bacon, egg, and cheese
on naan rolled up.
354
00:17:08,569 --> 00:17:10,029
That I will wake up for.
355
00:17:10,112 --> 00:17:11,655
[laughter]
356
00:17:11,739 --> 00:17:13,991
You know how some things,
they're not authentic?
357
00:17:14,074 --> 00:17:16,493
-They're delicious, and you don't care.
-Exactly.
358
00:17:16,577 --> 00:17:18,370
Authenticity is so overrated, right?
359
00:17:18,954 --> 00:17:21,623
I'm with you.
Your grandmother has an Indian recipe.
360
00:17:21,707 --> 00:17:25,085
What makes hers more authentic
than the grandma who lives next door?
361
00:17:25,169 --> 00:17:26,545
-Exactly.
-Right?
362
00:17:26,628 --> 00:17:28,338
She was a great cook, to be fair.
363
00:17:28,422 --> 00:17:32,885
But I think that it's better to go out
and improve on dishes,
364
00:17:32,968 --> 00:17:35,054
and not be held back by the past.
365
00:17:35,137 --> 00:17:36,680
How old is this place?
366
00:17:36,764 --> 00:17:38,390
This place is fairly old.
367
00:17:38,474 --> 00:17:42,144
Around the 1970s,
Sichuan food came to India.
368
00:17:42,227 --> 00:17:45,314
And Chinese food
became a really big deal in India,
369
00:17:45,397 --> 00:17:48,776
and it led to the creation
of what we call Indian-Chinese,
370
00:17:48,859 --> 00:17:51,945
which is a cuisine
that's very tasty, very spicy,
371
00:17:52,029 --> 00:17:54,073
and which no Chinese person
would recognize.
372
00:17:54,156 --> 00:17:55,365
[playful music playing]
373
00:17:55,449 --> 00:17:57,284
-[Phil] What's this?
-[Vir] This is calamari?
374
00:17:57,367 --> 00:17:59,912
-[Phil] Oh, I'm so excited!
-This is a fish here.
375
00:17:59,995 --> 00:18:01,330
[Phil] This is a fish?
376
00:18:01,413 --> 00:18:02,873
[waiter] Jumbo prawn on charcoal.
377
00:18:02,956 --> 00:18:06,335
-[Phil] You're not kidding, jumbo. My God!
-[waiter] It's cooked in the tandoor.
378
00:18:06,919 --> 00:18:08,962
This is a lobster with chili garlic.
379
00:18:09,046 --> 00:18:10,047
[laughs]
380
00:18:10,130 --> 00:18:11,965
I have a giant... Okay.
381
00:18:14,593 --> 00:18:18,430
This, ladies and gentlemen,
is butter garlic crab.
382
00:18:18,931 --> 00:18:21,183
They're refusing to serve you the big crab
383
00:18:21,266 --> 00:18:24,311
because you'll look like a fool
eating it on television
384
00:18:24,394 --> 00:18:26,063
because it's a messy experience.
385
00:18:26,146 --> 00:18:28,732
I don't need a crab
to make me look like a fool.
386
00:18:29,483 --> 00:18:31,610
So we're paying
a little extra today for that?
387
00:18:31,693 --> 00:18:32,694
No, it's the same price.
388
00:18:32,778 --> 00:18:33,987
-It is?
-Yes.
389
00:18:34,071 --> 00:18:36,907
Who would, uh, want to work so hard?
390
00:18:36,990 --> 00:18:41,161
A lot of people,
the fun is tearing it apart.
391
00:18:41,245 --> 00:18:43,539
Listen, my dad could go after a lobster.
392
00:18:43,622 --> 00:18:47,751
At 90 years old, he could get in there
and get every tiny shred of everything.
393
00:18:47,835 --> 00:18:50,462
To watch him,
he was like a jeweler getting in there.
394
00:18:51,338 --> 00:18:53,173
Here I go. This is the dish.
395
00:18:53,257 --> 00:18:54,716
-[Vir] This is it.
-[Richard] Yes.
396
00:18:56,468 --> 00:18:57,511
[music pauses]
397
00:18:57,594 --> 00:19:01,306
There's a little bit of spice in it,
to sort of make them both sing together.
398
00:19:01,390 --> 00:19:04,351
The flavor of butter and garlic we have,
but not like that.
399
00:19:04,434 --> 00:19:08,647
[Vir] This is called chicken Manchurian.
Chili, Indian spices, and tomato ketchup.
400
00:19:08,730 --> 00:19:11,400
Are we going to eat
the entire menu course by course?
401
00:19:12,025 --> 00:19:14,987
It's not recognizably Chinese,
but somewhere in the middle.
402
00:19:15,070 --> 00:19:16,822
-A very good middle.
-Mm.
403
00:19:16,905 --> 00:19:20,576
So much of the food is made up,
starting with the crab.
404
00:19:20,659 --> 00:19:23,704
-The chicken Manchurian is a made-up dish.
-Yes.
405
00:19:23,787 --> 00:19:27,916
The prawn Koliwada was created
in a suburb of Bombay.
406
00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:31,128
So these are dishes
made by enterprising cooks,
407
00:19:31,211 --> 00:19:34,298
often at street stalls,
which have now passed to the mainstream.
408
00:19:35,465 --> 00:19:36,758
[waiter] This is a fish curry.
409
00:19:36,842 --> 00:19:38,677
[Phil] Oh good, another plate. Good.
410
00:19:38,760 --> 00:19:39,887
[laughs]
411
00:19:41,763 --> 00:19:45,184
-[Vir] Where have you been to?
-[Phil] I went to Mohammed Ali Road.
412
00:19:45,267 --> 00:19:48,187
It's an experience
that most visitors to India don't get
413
00:19:48,270 --> 00:19:51,607
because they're too frightened
to go there, so I'm glad you went.
414
00:19:51,690 --> 00:19:55,152
I would not have gone alone.
I would not know what to eat.
415
00:19:55,235 --> 00:19:56,069
Yeah.
416
00:19:56,153 --> 00:19:59,531
That's why we need people like you
to point us the right way.
417
00:20:00,282 --> 00:20:03,160
Don't let your fear stop you from going.
418
00:20:04,286 --> 00:20:06,872
Because every time I go out
of my comfort zone a little bit,
419
00:20:08,123 --> 00:20:09,750
that's the most memorable thing.
420
00:20:09,833 --> 00:20:12,794
And you come back slightly changed,
I always find,
421
00:20:12,878 --> 00:20:14,421
when you leave your comfort zone.
422
00:20:14,504 --> 00:20:16,548
You're not the same person
when you come back.
423
00:20:16,632 --> 00:20:18,759
That's the thing.
And to get food like this.
424
00:20:19,676 --> 00:20:21,762
[traditional music playing]
425
00:20:21,845 --> 00:20:26,767
This is the Taj Mahal Palace Hotel,
which was built in 1903.
426
00:20:28,477 --> 00:20:31,480
This hotel's been through a lot.
A lot of glory.
427
00:20:31,563 --> 00:20:34,024
They've hosted world dignitaries, royalty.
428
00:20:35,067 --> 00:20:38,779
It's one of the most beautiful places
I've ever gotten to stay.
429
00:20:38,862 --> 00:20:40,781
[playing sitar]
430
00:20:40,864 --> 00:20:42,157
I'm a lucky boy.
431
00:20:43,700 --> 00:20:45,577
[continues playing]
432
00:20:45,661 --> 00:20:49,414
[Phil] Ooh, you know what's nice?
High tea and snacks in the Palace Lounge.
433
00:20:49,915 --> 00:20:53,043
-Hello. How are you today?
-I'm doing good. How are you, sir?
434
00:20:53,126 --> 00:20:55,128
Good. I'm happy to see you always.
435
00:20:56,046 --> 00:20:58,340
-[waiter] Some tea for you.
-[Phil] Thank you.
436
00:20:58,840 --> 00:21:01,718
[jazzy music playing]
437
00:21:01,802 --> 00:21:04,012
[Phil] The snacks were taking
a little while today,
438
00:21:04,096 --> 00:21:05,847
so we raided our own supply.
439
00:21:05,931 --> 00:21:07,349
[Richard] I really like these.
440
00:21:07,849 --> 00:21:10,560
West Indies hot and sweet chili.
441
00:21:10,644 --> 00:21:13,480
This is another good reason to travel.
442
00:21:13,563 --> 00:21:16,358
A lot of different flavors
you can't get at home.
443
00:21:16,441 --> 00:21:19,736
Even if you're just a "sit on the couch
and eat potato chips" guy...
444
00:21:21,738 --> 00:21:22,990
you're going to be happy.
445
00:21:25,200 --> 00:21:27,577
-Oh, my friend!
-Good afternoon, sir.
446
00:21:27,661 --> 00:21:31,248
[Phil] This is Chef Dipika.
I'm already a fan of her breakfast here.
447
00:21:31,331 --> 00:21:33,166
Ah, there you are.
448
00:21:33,250 --> 00:21:35,544
[laughter]
449
00:21:36,628 --> 00:21:39,464
I think I'll start with something
which is my favorite,
450
00:21:39,548 --> 00:21:40,966
which is the vada pav.
451
00:21:41,049 --> 00:21:43,093
[Phil] Wow! Look at that guy.
452
00:21:43,176 --> 00:21:46,179
-This is the pav, the bread.
-[Chef Dipika] This is the pav, the bread.
453
00:21:46,263 --> 00:21:49,474
Fried potato.
Lots of flavorings, curry leaves,
454
00:21:49,558 --> 00:21:54,104
coriander, mustard seeds,
turmeric, green chili on top.
455
00:21:54,187 --> 00:21:55,856
This is the real comfort food.
456
00:21:56,606 --> 00:21:59,860
This is a steamed kind of layered roulade,
457
00:21:59,943 --> 00:22:03,071
which is made with chickpeas,
mustard seeds.
458
00:22:03,155 --> 00:22:04,531
Quite a delicacy.
459
00:22:07,117 --> 00:22:08,869
[Phil] How nice is this? Okay.
460
00:22:08,952 --> 00:22:11,788
[Chef Dipika] This is the bun maska.
You have to dip it in that.
461
00:22:11,872 --> 00:22:13,415
Who doesn't like that?
462
00:22:13,999 --> 00:22:15,000
Wait a minute.
463
00:22:15,083 --> 00:22:17,794
-These are all the Indian sweets.
-[Phil] Sweets!
464
00:22:17,878 --> 00:22:19,379
[gobbles]
465
00:22:19,463 --> 00:22:21,715
[Chef Dipika laughs]
466
00:22:21,798 --> 00:22:23,884
This is called the gujiya, and...
467
00:22:23,967 --> 00:22:25,344
That's a good name.
468
00:22:25,427 --> 00:22:28,096
It's a little crunchy,
and a little soft inside.
469
00:22:28,180 --> 00:22:32,309
And inside there is some condensed milk
and some dry fruits.
470
00:22:32,934 --> 00:22:34,519
That makes you so happy.
471
00:22:34,603 --> 00:22:36,521
-Tell me the name again.
-Gujiya.
472
00:22:36,605 --> 00:22:38,690
Gujiya, because that's what happens
in your mouth.
473
00:22:38,774 --> 00:22:40,067
[laughing]
474
00:22:40,150 --> 00:22:42,194
-You eat it, and you say, "Gujiya!"
-Gujiya! Yes.
475
00:22:42,277 --> 00:22:43,320
[Chef Dipika giggles]
476
00:22:43,403 --> 00:22:45,197
-Such a pleasure.
-My pleasure.
477
00:22:45,280 --> 00:22:47,157
She can't wait to get out of here.
478
00:22:47,240 --> 00:22:49,409
-Thank you.
-I'll see you for breakfast tomorrow?
479
00:22:49,493 --> 00:22:51,036
-[laughs]
-[Phil] Try to keep me away.
480
00:22:51,119 --> 00:22:52,371
Now where was I?
481
00:22:52,454 --> 00:22:54,581
[string quartet music playing]
482
00:22:54,664 --> 00:22:55,916
[giggles]
483
00:22:57,000 --> 00:22:58,460
[music ends]
484
00:23:01,254 --> 00:23:03,465
[horns honking]
485
00:23:03,548 --> 00:23:06,385
[triumphant music playing]
486
00:23:10,055 --> 00:23:11,681
[Phil] You ever play cricket?
487
00:23:11,765 --> 00:23:14,810
You ever watch cricket?
You know what cricket is?
488
00:23:15,477 --> 00:23:18,688
My answer to all these questions are, no,
489
00:23:19,815 --> 00:23:21,066
hardly, barely.
490
00:23:22,401 --> 00:23:25,112
But it's the most popular sport in India.
491
00:23:25,195 --> 00:23:27,906
The British brought it here
in the early 1700s.
492
00:23:27,989 --> 00:23:30,992
Teams take turns at bat,
trying to score the most runs.
493
00:23:31,076 --> 00:23:34,496
One way is by making a hit
and running between the stumps
494
00:23:34,579 --> 00:23:36,039
with your bat in your hand.
495
00:23:36,123 --> 00:23:37,541
Simple enough, right?
496
00:23:37,624 --> 00:23:39,376
So I thought, why not give it a try?
497
00:23:40,168 --> 00:23:41,878
-How are you?
-[player] Hi.
498
00:23:41,962 --> 00:23:44,047
[Phil] Thank you for letting me
ruin your game.
499
00:23:44,131 --> 00:23:45,549
[laughing]
500
00:23:45,632 --> 00:23:49,511
[Phil] I'm going to a gymkhana.
This is the police gymkhana.
501
00:23:49,594 --> 00:23:52,180
Lovely field, especially at night.
502
00:23:52,264 --> 00:23:54,182
My fellow players are all teenagers.
503
00:23:54,266 --> 00:23:56,268
I'm going to fit right in.
504
00:23:56,351 --> 00:24:00,689
My instructor is Sulakshana Naik,
a cricket champion in this country.
505
00:24:00,772 --> 00:24:02,274
[Sulakshana] These are the pads.
506
00:24:02,774 --> 00:24:05,652
-I want every protection possible.
-[Sulakshana chuckles]
507
00:24:05,735 --> 00:24:08,738
[Phil] And today,
she's going to give me a lesson.
508
00:24:08,822 --> 00:24:10,031
Is it comfortable?
509
00:24:10,115 --> 00:24:11,658
-No, but...
-[laughter]
510
00:24:11,741 --> 00:24:13,910
-[Sulakshana] You can try.
-Do I have a choice?
511
00:24:13,994 --> 00:24:17,080
You know what's great about this?
It makes it even harder to see.
512
00:24:17,164 --> 00:24:18,915
[Sulakshana] Just pull it a little down.
513
00:24:18,999 --> 00:24:21,376
Ah, I see. This is where you see out of.
514
00:24:26,548 --> 00:24:29,676
[player] Just to hold the bat properly.
Keep it back here.
515
00:24:29,759 --> 00:24:30,594
[Phil] Okay.
516
00:24:33,263 --> 00:24:34,306
Jesus.
517
00:24:34,389 --> 00:24:35,265
-[Sulakshana] Oh.
-Oh.
518
00:24:35,348 --> 00:24:36,308
[laughing]
519
00:24:36,391 --> 00:24:38,852
Pretend you are pitching
to a four-year-old boy.
520
00:24:38,935 --> 00:24:39,769
-[player laughs]
-Yes.
521
00:24:39,853 --> 00:24:42,814
[upbeat music playing]
522
00:24:42,898 --> 00:24:44,024
[Sulakshana] Swing it!
523
00:24:44,107 --> 00:24:45,400
Aw!
524
00:24:45,484 --> 00:24:47,194
-[indistinct]
-I'll feed you.
525
00:24:47,277 --> 00:24:49,237
That's the name of the show.
526
00:24:49,321 --> 00:24:52,324
You know when I was 12,
I was in the Little League.
527
00:24:52,908 --> 00:24:55,118
And they actually gave me an award...
528
00:24:55,202 --> 00:24:57,537
-[Sulakshana] For hitting.
-For not showing up.
529
00:24:57,621 --> 00:24:58,622
[laughter]
530
00:25:01,333 --> 00:25:02,918
-How's my stance?
-[player] Perfect.
531
00:25:03,001 --> 00:25:05,086
-[Phil] I'm perfect! Come on!
-[player] Yeah.
532
00:25:06,463 --> 00:25:08,965
-Run with the bat!
-[Sulakshana] Yes, run!
533
00:25:09,049 --> 00:25:10,550
[player] Run! On the right!
534
00:25:12,302 --> 00:25:13,887
[Richard laughs]
535
00:25:13,970 --> 00:25:15,639
Love it! Good job!
536
00:25:16,348 --> 00:25:18,141
[applause]
537
00:25:18,225 --> 00:25:19,809
[chuckles] Hey!
538
00:25:19,893 --> 00:25:22,312
[Phil] Okay.
Now for something I am good at.
539
00:25:22,395 --> 00:25:24,314
Pani puri for everybody!
540
00:25:24,397 --> 00:25:28,401
These crispy fried potato snacks knock it
out of the park with my teammates.
541
00:25:28,485 --> 00:25:30,403
Enjoy it. Enjoy, enjoy.
542
00:25:30,487 --> 00:25:32,447
Did you... You didn't have. Come on.
543
00:25:32,531 --> 00:25:33,782
Don't be shy.
544
00:25:33,865 --> 00:25:36,493
How about you? You're very quiet.
545
00:25:36,576 --> 00:25:40,080
-[Sulakshana] He speaks a lot in practice.
-He speaks a lot in practice?
546
00:25:40,664 --> 00:25:43,333
-They think you talk too much.
-[laughter]
547
00:25:44,626 --> 00:25:45,752
[girl] Go!
548
00:25:45,835 --> 00:25:49,297
-[cheering]
-Mm!
549
00:25:50,298 --> 00:25:52,425
Next time you see me,
I'll be a star of cricket...
550
00:25:52,509 --> 00:25:53,760
[laughing]
551
00:25:53,843 --> 00:25:56,304
...because I'm going to practice now a lot.
552
00:25:57,013 --> 00:25:59,266
And when I say a lot,
I mean probably never again.
553
00:25:59,349 --> 00:26:00,350
[laughing]
554
00:26:00,433 --> 00:26:02,519
[Phil] I may never be a legend
on the cricket pitch,
555
00:26:02,602 --> 00:26:05,272
but when it comes
to packing snacks for the team,
556
00:26:05,355 --> 00:26:07,482
I'm what you'd call a natural.
557
00:26:09,818 --> 00:26:11,194
[music fades]
558
00:26:11,278 --> 00:26:13,530
[gentle music playing]
559
00:26:15,365 --> 00:26:17,325
[Phil] I have a friend
named Chintan Pandya.
560
00:26:17,409 --> 00:26:21,121
He has four Indian restaurants
in New York.
561
00:26:21,204 --> 00:26:24,916
Dhamaka, Semma, Rowdy Rooster, Adda.
562
00:26:25,000 --> 00:26:28,336
I've had some of the best meals ever
at his restaurants.
563
00:26:28,420 --> 00:26:32,424
He's in Mumbai this week
to take me to one of his favorites.
564
00:26:33,174 --> 00:26:34,217
This is Soam.
565
00:26:35,552 --> 00:26:37,095
First up are a bunch of drinks.
566
00:26:37,178 --> 00:26:38,597
I'm getting my fluids.
567
00:26:38,680 --> 00:26:41,057
Including mango lassi.
568
00:26:43,101 --> 00:26:44,519
Maybe the king of drinks. Why?
569
00:26:44,603 --> 00:26:47,606
Because mango is the king of fruit.
I'll fight you.
570
00:26:48,648 --> 00:26:50,817
-[Chintan] It's mango season in India.
-I know.
571
00:26:50,900 --> 00:26:54,070
-And especially in Mumbai.
-I had Alphonso mango this morning.
572
00:26:54,154 --> 00:26:55,196
You had the Alphonso?
573
00:26:55,280 --> 00:26:56,489
Alphonso mango.
574
00:26:56,573 --> 00:26:58,825
-That's my detective name.
-Oh, wow.
575
00:26:59,409 --> 00:27:00,452
It's true.
576
00:27:00,535 --> 00:27:02,203
Oh, here we go.
577
00:27:02,287 --> 00:27:04,289
Ah, here's my old friend pani puri.
578
00:27:04,873 --> 00:27:07,375
-Can I add the lentil rolls? Mung?
-Please, you do it.
579
00:27:07,959 --> 00:27:11,713
-Mung, like mung beans.
-This is aloo, ragda, potatoes.
580
00:27:11,796 --> 00:27:13,173
[Phil] Aloo is potato, yes.
581
00:27:15,467 --> 00:27:17,427
And then these are little lentils.
582
00:27:17,510 --> 00:27:19,095
Yeah, nice. Beautiful.
583
00:27:19,179 --> 00:27:20,805
I like that. I know what that is.
584
00:27:20,889 --> 00:27:22,515
-[Chintan] Chutney.
-Yeah.
585
00:27:23,058 --> 00:27:24,643
This I haven't seen.
586
00:27:25,644 --> 00:27:28,855
I've been building up to this moment
for a long time.
587
00:27:30,690 --> 00:27:31,900
That's the moment.
588
00:27:32,400 --> 00:27:33,943
[music ends]
589
00:27:34,027 --> 00:27:36,237
This is what you manifested for years.
590
00:27:36,821 --> 00:27:39,532
But Chin, you... you fed me in New York.
591
00:27:39,616 --> 00:27:40,617
Not with my hand.
592
00:27:40,700 --> 00:27:42,410
-That's...
-From your hands.
593
00:27:42,494 --> 00:27:44,663
-From my hands, but yes.
-Right?
594
00:27:44,746 --> 00:27:49,292
You have probably the two best
Indian restaurants in America.
595
00:27:49,793 --> 00:27:53,505
We have four of them,
and you only said two, that's only 50%.
596
00:27:54,255 --> 00:27:55,590
[traditional music playing]
597
00:27:55,674 --> 00:27:58,718
[Phil] Well, I'm 100% curious
about this next dish.
598
00:28:00,220 --> 00:28:03,056
-[Chintan] You just remove the top of it.
-Take off the top.
599
00:28:03,139 --> 00:28:04,224
That's egg?
600
00:28:04,307 --> 00:28:06,559
No, it's pure veg. It's vegan.
601
00:28:06,643 --> 00:28:08,186
-What is it?
-It's chickpea flour.
602
00:28:08,269 --> 00:28:09,479
Ah!
603
00:28:09,562 --> 00:28:11,981
[Chintan] It's called panki,
and then it's grilled and steamed.
604
00:28:12,065 --> 00:28:16,528
The reason I chose this place is
this is a food that my mother would cook,
605
00:28:16,611 --> 00:28:19,489
but I could never find it
in a restaurant setting.
606
00:28:19,572 --> 00:28:21,741
And the first time I ate here,
607
00:28:21,825 --> 00:28:24,661
I was blown away as to how
this simple food is transformed
608
00:28:24,744 --> 00:28:27,247
into this perfection at this place.
609
00:28:27,789 --> 00:28:30,500
-So you can eat it like this on its own.
-Okay.
610
00:28:30,583 --> 00:28:33,753
Once you're done, then you can have
sauce on the side if you want.
611
00:28:34,295 --> 00:28:36,923
It's so much more fun
eating with your hands.
612
00:28:37,424 --> 00:28:39,259
I think all food tastes better.
613
00:28:39,342 --> 00:28:41,803
[upbeat music playing]
614
00:28:41,886 --> 00:28:46,558
This, when it's cooked in my house,
it's like a flatbread which is pan-seared.
615
00:28:46,641 --> 00:28:49,352
And these guys do it this way,
which is very tasty.
616
00:28:49,936 --> 00:28:53,857
I never dare to say that to my mother,
otherwise I'll be kicked out of my house.
617
00:28:53,940 --> 00:28:56,735
-I have to say your version is better.
-Always.
618
00:28:57,485 --> 00:28:58,319
[Chintan] Yes.
619
00:29:01,072 --> 00:29:04,951
So tell me about your house growing up.
You were here in Mumbai?
620
00:29:05,034 --> 00:29:08,204
I grew up in Mumbai.
I was this kid who loved to eat,
621
00:29:08,288 --> 00:29:10,957
and I was
from this middle-class family where,
622
00:29:11,040 --> 00:29:14,002
you know, eating out
is a very big thing growing up.
623
00:29:14,085 --> 00:29:17,297
-In my mind, I'm planning the entire day.
-We hardly ever.
624
00:29:17,380 --> 00:29:19,758
"I'm gonna walk there,
I'm going to eat this, eat that."
625
00:29:19,841 --> 00:29:20,884
So I loved eating.
626
00:29:20,967 --> 00:29:25,513
When I would be 13, 14,
it struck me, what if I become a chef?
627
00:29:25,597 --> 00:29:27,849
-I can eat as much as I want.
-Yes.
628
00:29:27,932 --> 00:29:31,686
I don't have to pay for it,
and I bloody well will get paid for it.
629
00:29:32,187 --> 00:29:35,774
So I said, "This is like
the most win-win-win situation for me."
630
00:29:35,857 --> 00:29:38,026
My dream was only slightly different.
631
00:29:38,109 --> 00:29:39,110
Eat, eat, and eat.
632
00:29:39,194 --> 00:29:42,489
Eat, eat, and eat.
And just be friends with chefs.
633
00:29:42,572 --> 00:29:44,365
-[Phil] Ooh.
-[indistinct]
634
00:29:44,449 --> 00:29:47,160
[Chintan] This is like a porridge.
Rice and lentils.
635
00:29:47,243 --> 00:29:49,662
So my mom now lives with me in New York,
636
00:29:49,746 --> 00:29:51,748
and she'll ask me,
"What do you want to eat?"
637
00:29:51,831 --> 00:29:53,750
I'm like, "I want to eat khichdi," this.
638
00:29:53,833 --> 00:29:56,085
-This is the most simplest thing.
-Simple.
639
00:29:56,169 --> 00:29:59,088
I can eat it every day of my life now.
640
00:29:59,714 --> 00:30:00,799
It's so good.
641
00:30:01,800 --> 00:30:05,720
-That is the ghee, clarified butter.
-[Phil] Ah. Yeah. Ooh.
642
00:30:05,804 --> 00:30:08,097
-[Chintan] Curry.
-How am I eating this with my hands?
643
00:30:08,181 --> 00:30:09,516
[Chintan] I want to show you.
644
00:30:10,391 --> 00:30:12,018
[Richard] Philip, did you wash your hands?
645
00:30:12,101 --> 00:30:16,648
[chuckling] I did, but I'm honestly not
sure if I washed them well enough.
646
00:30:16,731 --> 00:30:17,607
[Richard laughs]
647
00:30:17,690 --> 00:30:19,818
If you want a little crunch, you can...
648
00:30:20,777 --> 00:30:22,070
-Eat it like this.
-Yeah?
649
00:30:22,153 --> 00:30:24,823
But the way I like it is,
I just crush it inside.
650
00:30:24,906 --> 00:30:26,574
This is the way I like to eat it.
651
00:30:27,325 --> 00:30:29,077
And then you just go...
652
00:30:31,788 --> 00:30:32,914
-Yes.
-[Richard laughs]
653
00:30:32,997 --> 00:30:36,376
When you practice, you learn it
within two, three days. It's easy.
654
00:30:37,085 --> 00:30:38,336
[Phil] Yeah.
655
00:30:38,419 --> 00:30:40,463
We will make you pro before you leave.
656
00:30:40,547 --> 00:30:42,507
[Phil] I'm four years old again.
657
00:30:42,590 --> 00:30:46,761
[playful music builds, fades]
658
00:30:48,638 --> 00:30:52,684
[Phil] I'm back with my friend Nigel,
and he's sharing another gem in the city.
659
00:30:52,767 --> 00:30:55,645
We're going to a school
that works with the Agastya Foundation,
660
00:30:55,728 --> 00:30:58,648
a nonprofit
Nigel and his company partner with
661
00:30:58,731 --> 00:31:02,861
to help provide resources to schools
to teach kids hands-on learning
662
00:31:02,944 --> 00:31:04,696
in the sciences and arts.
663
00:31:04,779 --> 00:31:06,823
This happens every time I come home.
664
00:31:06,906 --> 00:31:07,991
Oh, thank you.
665
00:31:09,742 --> 00:31:10,660
[giggles]
666
00:31:10,743 --> 00:31:11,995
Well, here's a welcome.
667
00:31:12,078 --> 00:31:14,664
[loud banging drum]
668
00:31:24,883 --> 00:31:28,303
It's how I'd like to be welcomed
from now on everywhere I go.
669
00:31:31,806 --> 00:31:33,892
[laughs]
670
00:31:33,975 --> 00:31:35,768
Bravo! Namaste.
671
00:31:37,145 --> 00:31:38,771
[Hariharan] Hello, welcome. Hurry up.
672
00:31:38,855 --> 00:31:40,231
[Phil] This is Hariharan,
673
00:31:40,315 --> 00:31:43,651
executive director
at the Agastya International Foundation.
674
00:31:43,735 --> 00:31:47,238
Agastya is all about building
scientific temper
675
00:31:47,322 --> 00:31:49,490
among the children with whom we work with
676
00:31:49,574 --> 00:31:51,492
through experiential science learning,
677
00:31:51,576 --> 00:31:53,953
which reaches to around
two million children
678
00:31:54,037 --> 00:31:55,830
across 22 states in the country.
679
00:31:55,914 --> 00:31:57,999
We supplement the school education.
680
00:31:58,082 --> 00:31:59,959
Essentially provide them
681
00:32:00,710 --> 00:32:04,172
what is basically necessary
in terms of doing things with hand.
682
00:32:04,255 --> 00:32:05,757
[Phil] Arts and science.
683
00:32:05,840 --> 00:32:08,927
Arts and science.
These are areas we focus on because...
684
00:32:09,010 --> 00:32:11,346
-It's needed everywhere in the world.
-Absolutely.
685
00:32:11,429 --> 00:32:15,391
An organization like that
has supported us in this endeavor.
686
00:32:15,475 --> 00:32:17,185
We're really happy to be a partner.
687
00:32:17,268 --> 00:32:20,480
Why don't we go in
and have a glimpse of what we do?
688
00:32:20,563 --> 00:32:21,397
Yeah.
689
00:32:22,231 --> 00:32:23,232
[Phil] Ah!
690
00:32:23,316 --> 00:32:24,525
Hi, everybody.
691
00:32:24,609 --> 00:32:27,487
The whole idea is to teach children
using these models,
692
00:32:27,570 --> 00:32:31,157
so that a majority of what they see
is retained with them.
693
00:32:31,240 --> 00:32:33,534
This team has got a smart helmet.
694
00:32:33,618 --> 00:32:35,453
[Phil] A smart helmet. Wow.
695
00:32:35,536 --> 00:32:38,706
[teacher] Whenever somebody
wears a helmet, a fan will start.
696
00:32:38,790 --> 00:32:40,166
Ah! Keep you cool.
697
00:32:40,249 --> 00:32:42,043
[Nigel] I don't think it's about the fan.
698
00:32:42,126 --> 00:32:45,088
-Put the helmet on, the bike won't start.
-[Phil] Ah!
699
00:32:45,171 --> 00:32:47,924
He's just trying to prove it with the fan.
700
00:32:48,508 --> 00:32:49,634
-Very smart.
-That's cool.
701
00:32:49,717 --> 00:32:52,637
You can cut the part where I thought
it was about an air-conditioned helmet.
702
00:32:52,720 --> 00:32:54,097
-[Richard laughs]
-[Phil gasps]
703
00:32:54,180 --> 00:32:56,391
-It looks like Richard.
-[Richard laughs]
704
00:32:57,100 --> 00:32:58,977
[Phil] Science has never been
my strong suit,
705
00:32:59,060 --> 00:33:00,478
so seeing young people using it
706
00:33:00,561 --> 00:33:03,898
to come up with creative solutions
to everyday problems
707
00:33:03,982 --> 00:33:05,692
gives me hope for the future.
708
00:33:05,775 --> 00:33:08,361
[Nigel] Much of the work Publicis Sapient
do in communities,
709
00:33:08,444 --> 00:33:10,238
is working with places like schools
710
00:33:10,321 --> 00:33:12,782
to help create
the next generation of talent
711
00:33:12,865 --> 00:33:15,660
with art, with science,
bringing it to life,
712
00:33:15,743 --> 00:33:18,579
so they understand why we need
to worry about the planet,
713
00:33:18,663 --> 00:33:21,040
why we need
to understand science concepts.
714
00:33:21,124 --> 00:33:24,043
It's not about Newton's law,
but how you apply it.
715
00:33:24,752 --> 00:33:26,754
Well, this is amazing to see.
716
00:33:27,755 --> 00:33:30,633
Thank you for showing me your projects.
I'm so impressed with you.
717
00:33:30,717 --> 00:33:34,595
Now I can show you something
if you come upstairs with me, okay?
718
00:33:35,179 --> 00:33:38,016
I learned something when visiting schools.
719
00:33:38,099 --> 00:33:39,434
Bring ice cream.
720
00:33:39,517 --> 00:33:40,435
Mm! Mango!
721
00:33:40,518 --> 00:33:41,436
Take this.
722
00:33:42,520 --> 00:33:44,230
[Phil chuckles]
723
00:33:44,313 --> 00:33:46,399
Hi, you're a great drummer.
724
00:33:46,482 --> 00:33:48,359
Give me a high five. Yeah!
725
00:33:48,443 --> 00:33:49,527
[Phil giggles]
726
00:33:49,610 --> 00:33:51,404
-How is it? You like it.
-Yes.
727
00:33:52,947 --> 00:33:53,906
Oh, a selfie.
728
00:33:56,242 --> 00:33:57,326
Namaste!
729
00:33:57,410 --> 00:33:58,828
[all] Namaste.
730
00:34:01,497 --> 00:34:03,499
[phone ringing]
731
00:34:06,878 --> 00:34:08,171
Hi!
732
00:34:08,254 --> 00:34:12,175
Hi, Judy. Are you in some fancy,
gorgeous hotel too?
733
00:34:12,258 --> 00:34:15,928
Yeah. With the HVAC thing right there.
734
00:34:16,012 --> 00:34:18,181
-[laughs]
-No, it's not fancy.
735
00:34:18,264 --> 00:34:20,683
If you could see my view
out of my hotel window,
736
00:34:20,767 --> 00:34:22,894
you'd be really jealous.
737
00:34:22,977 --> 00:34:24,145
You know where I am?
738
00:34:24,812 --> 00:34:26,522
-Mumbai?
-Yes!
739
00:34:26,606 --> 00:34:28,441
-Ah... How did I know that?
-[Phil laughs]
740
00:34:28,524 --> 00:34:30,276
[Judy] Wait. Are you having fun?
741
00:34:30,359 --> 00:34:34,447
Am I having fun? It's unbelievable.
I'm having my masala chai.
742
00:34:35,156 --> 00:34:38,534
I love masala chai.
I've never had it, but I know I love it.
743
00:34:38,618 --> 00:34:40,078
-[laughs]
-I know I love it.
744
00:34:40,161 --> 00:34:44,248
[Phil] This is the Taj Hotel.
There's a baker here named Samruddhi.
745
00:34:45,208 --> 00:34:47,418
[Judy] Oh my God, I can't. I cannot.
746
00:34:47,919 --> 00:34:51,380
Why do you torture me?
Why do you torture me?
747
00:34:51,464 --> 00:34:54,217
-One of my favorite things to do.
-What's the middle like?
748
00:34:54,300 --> 00:34:57,178
Soft, fresh, beautiful,
a little crispy outside.
749
00:34:57,261 --> 00:34:58,429
Thick cookies, but soft.
750
00:34:58,513 --> 00:35:02,016
One of the best chocolate chip cookies
I've had in my life.
751
00:35:02,600 --> 00:35:05,144
And then, you won't believe this.
752
00:35:05,645 --> 00:35:07,021
A framed picture.
753
00:35:10,775 --> 00:35:12,735
What, the frame is from, like...
754
00:35:13,778 --> 00:35:17,990
No way! Are you kidding?
What is it? Is it chocolate?
755
00:35:19,408 --> 00:35:20,827
The whole thing.
756
00:35:20,910 --> 00:35:23,121
-I have to say, I am delicious.
-Look at that!
757
00:35:23,704 --> 00:35:26,791
-My God! What is your life?
-I don't know.
758
00:35:26,874 --> 00:35:28,793
What is your life?
759
00:35:28,876 --> 00:35:31,087
My life is this.
760
00:35:33,089 --> 00:35:34,090
That's edible.
761
00:35:34,173 --> 00:35:36,884
Do you feel guilty eating your children?
762
00:35:36,968 --> 00:35:39,011
Nope. And...
763
00:35:41,430 --> 00:35:43,516
Oh my God!
764
00:35:43,599 --> 00:35:47,103
{\an8}-Not just the front. The back of the book.
-Are you kidding me?
765
00:35:47,186 --> 00:35:49,480
-Oh my God! What is that?
-And then...
766
00:35:49,564 --> 00:35:52,275
What is that made of? What is that made...
767
00:35:52,358 --> 00:35:55,069
Oh my God! Why?
768
00:35:55,820 --> 00:36:00,032
Judy, no one's ever made, uh,
your book into chocolate?
769
00:36:00,116 --> 00:36:00,992
[Richard laughs]
770
00:36:01,075 --> 00:36:04,453
And pictures of you
and your family into chocolate?
771
00:36:04,537 --> 00:36:07,331
I'm very aware
that this is a G-rated show.
772
00:36:07,415 --> 00:36:09,750
-Yes.
-But if it wasn't... Ooh.
773
00:36:09,834 --> 00:36:13,671
Judy, do you have a joke for Max today?
774
00:36:14,463 --> 00:36:18,176
-That's usable on a nice show like this?
-I have a joke for Max.
775
00:36:18,259 --> 00:36:21,262
Now, I have a really good joke,
776
00:36:21,345 --> 00:36:26,100
but one word in the joke is questionable,
777
00:36:26,184 --> 00:36:30,188
but I spoke to Richard and, you know...
778
00:36:30,271 --> 00:36:32,607
-[Phil] He has terrible taste.
-The joke is so good.
779
00:36:32,690 --> 00:36:33,941
[Richard giggles]
780
00:36:34,025 --> 00:36:35,151
All right, do it.
781
00:36:35,818 --> 00:36:40,364
So these two men, elderly men,
they're very close friends.
782
00:36:40,948 --> 00:36:45,244
And right before the pandemic,
one of the men becomes a widower.
783
00:36:46,162 --> 00:36:50,708
And they don't see each other
for a couple of years,
784
00:36:50,791 --> 00:36:52,960
and then they meet up for lunch.
785
00:36:53,044 --> 00:36:56,339
One man says to the other,
"How are you doing?"
786
00:36:56,422 --> 00:36:57,798
"How was the pandemic?"
787
00:36:57,882 --> 00:37:00,384
"I'm so sorry you didn't have
your wife with you."
788
00:37:00,468 --> 00:37:03,763
And he said,
"You know, I'm doing really, really well."
789
00:37:03,846 --> 00:37:05,848
He said, "Are you seeing anyone?"
790
00:37:05,932 --> 00:37:09,769
And he said, "Actually, I'm seeing twins."
791
00:37:10,686 --> 00:37:12,647
And he's, "Twins?"
792
00:37:12,730 --> 00:37:14,607
"How can you tell them apart?"
793
00:37:15,441 --> 00:37:22,240
And he said, "Well, Nicole has this
beautiful tattoo on her lower back
794
00:37:22,865 --> 00:37:24,325
of a red rose,
795
00:37:25,034 --> 00:37:26,869
and Rob has a ****."
796
00:37:26,953 --> 00:37:31,499
-[laughs]
-[Richard laughs]
797
00:37:33,251 --> 00:37:36,379
What I love about that joke
is the inclusivity.
798
00:37:36,462 --> 00:37:38,464
[Richard and Judy laugh]
799
00:37:41,175 --> 00:37:43,052
-Judy Gold, everybody.
-[applause]
800
00:37:43,135 --> 00:37:45,263
-I Iove you.
-Love you.
801
00:37:45,346 --> 00:37:48,140
[gentle music playing]
802
00:37:49,392 --> 00:37:54,105
[Phil] If you saw the New York episode,
then you met my friend, Floyd Cardoz,
803
00:37:54,188 --> 00:37:58,276
a great chef who took my friend Rupa
and me to an Indian temple in Queens,
804
00:37:58,359 --> 00:38:00,778
and we ate downstairs,
and it was fantastic.
805
00:38:01,821 --> 00:38:04,949
Tragically, Floyd passed away
due to Covid in 2020,
806
00:38:05,032 --> 00:38:06,659
and we all miss him dearly.
807
00:38:06,742 --> 00:38:11,080
But his culinary legacy lives on,
especially here at the Bombay Canteen,
808
00:38:11,163 --> 00:38:16,043
which he co-founded with his partners
Sameer, Yash, and head chef Hussain.
809
00:38:16,127 --> 00:38:17,712
It's now a Mumbai institution.
810
00:38:18,379 --> 00:38:20,798
Our fixer Pooja is good friends
with these guys,
811
00:38:20,881 --> 00:38:22,675
and is joining us for lunch.
812
00:38:22,758 --> 00:38:24,927
-I think we should toast to Floyd.
-[Sameer] Indeed.
813
00:38:25,011 --> 00:38:26,887
We wouldn't be here without him.
814
00:38:26,971 --> 00:38:28,889
-We really wouldn't. Cheers.
-[Pooja] Yeah.
815
00:38:30,683 --> 00:38:32,935
-[in high-pitched voice] Yum!
-[laughter]
816
00:38:33,019 --> 00:38:33,894
That's very good.
817
00:38:34,645 --> 00:38:36,272
Tell me what's happening.
818
00:38:36,355 --> 00:38:38,149
Most of what you see over here
819
00:38:38,232 --> 00:38:40,901
could remind you of something
you've eaten on the streets,
820
00:38:40,985 --> 00:38:44,989
or an experience of nostalgia of us
growing up in different parts of India,
821
00:38:45,072 --> 00:38:48,159
and then kind of bring it to life
with our own version of it.
822
00:38:48,242 --> 00:38:51,704
This dish right here
is an idea to showcase grains in India.
823
00:38:51,787 --> 00:38:53,998
-Yes.
-So it's textural, it's creamy.
824
00:38:54,081 --> 00:38:58,002
It's got the pomegranate that gives it
the juiciness. I'd love for you to try it.
825
00:38:58,085 --> 00:38:58,961
[Phil] I'm ready.
826
00:39:01,589 --> 00:39:02,923
Mm!
827
00:39:03,007 --> 00:39:07,053
This was the first dish that Floyd gave
his approval on, so it's special to me.
828
00:39:07,136 --> 00:39:10,389
[Phil] I love that.
So this looks like a taco.
829
00:39:10,473 --> 00:39:14,101
It is a taco. This is a dish
from the northeast part of India,
830
00:39:14,185 --> 00:39:16,145
where they do rice with pork.
831
00:39:16,228 --> 00:39:20,691
Our version of it has pork belly
that's been cooked with black sesame
832
00:39:20,775 --> 00:39:25,029
and then finished off
with spicy king chili sauce on top.
833
00:39:25,112 --> 00:39:27,573
And the rice is represented
by the rice flatbread.
834
00:39:27,656 --> 00:39:28,574
Oh boy!
835
00:39:28,657 --> 00:39:33,037
This could give LA tacos a run
for their money. This is pretty great.
836
00:39:33,120 --> 00:39:36,040
You actually worked
at Eleven Madison Park, right?
837
00:39:36,123 --> 00:39:37,249
Yes, I did.
838
00:39:37,333 --> 00:39:39,668
[Phil] I mean,
it's reflected here. I see it.
839
00:39:39,752 --> 00:39:42,546
Why come back to Mumbai?
What do you love about Mumbai?
840
00:39:42,630 --> 00:39:44,465
None of us are from Bombay.
841
00:39:44,548 --> 00:39:47,301
-None of you?
-[Sameer] Bombay is a melting pot.
842
00:39:47,385 --> 00:39:50,679
If you wanted to push the boundaries
of what Indian food could be,
843
00:39:50,763 --> 00:39:52,973
this city would be
the most accepting of it.
844
00:39:53,057 --> 00:39:57,728
It is the spirit of the city that,
if you live here for more than two years,
845
00:39:58,229 --> 00:39:59,730
it gets under your skin.
846
00:39:59,814 --> 00:40:02,650
And then you can't live
anywhere in the world.
847
00:40:02,733 --> 00:40:04,485
-Worth the effort.
-[Pooja] Yes.
848
00:40:04,568 --> 00:40:05,903
-Worth it.
-[Phil] I get it.
849
00:40:05,986 --> 00:40:07,863
-[Pooja laughs]
-[Phil] What's this one?
850
00:40:07,947 --> 00:40:10,741
[Hussain] My mom would scramble eggs
in the morning with the meat curry
851
00:40:10,825 --> 00:40:13,160
from the previous night
and serve it with dosa.
852
00:40:13,244 --> 00:40:15,663
My younger brother
always got the piece of meat
853
00:40:15,746 --> 00:40:17,832
that was left in the curry,
and I never did.
854
00:40:18,416 --> 00:40:20,835
He would take the bacon off my plate.
855
00:40:21,502 --> 00:40:23,254
Let's not give him any of this.
856
00:40:23,337 --> 00:40:24,588
Yeah. [laughs]
857
00:40:24,672 --> 00:40:28,092
[Hussain] It's a beef tartare
with a tamarind ponzu, a garlic puree,
858
00:40:28,175 --> 00:40:31,137
and smoked egg yolks
have been shaved on top of it.
859
00:40:33,597 --> 00:40:36,559
-You had a good childhood.
-I did. It was lovely.
860
00:40:36,642 --> 00:40:37,852
Not too shabby.
861
00:40:38,602 --> 00:40:40,479
I believe you've been to Trishna.
862
00:40:40,563 --> 00:40:43,441
Our favorite combination there
is butter, garlic, crab.
863
00:40:43,524 --> 00:40:44,692
That was unbelievable.
864
00:40:44,775 --> 00:40:48,237
[Sameer] That's butter, garlic, crab,
and an egg on top because why not?
865
00:40:48,320 --> 00:40:49,155
[laughter]
866
00:40:49,238 --> 00:40:50,448
[Sameer] There is no reason.
867
00:40:50,531 --> 00:40:52,408
-[Phil] This I can't wait.
-[Pooja] Yeah.
868
00:40:53,409 --> 00:40:54,743
-Mm!
-[laughter]
869
00:40:55,536 --> 00:40:58,289
-[humming with joy]
-[laughter]
870
00:40:59,498 --> 00:41:01,876
[Phil] I'm so happy.
There's one more thing here.
871
00:41:01,959 --> 00:41:02,793
Yeah.
872
00:41:02,877 --> 00:41:05,212
[Sameer] There's a dish
which is very famous, the dhokla,
873
00:41:05,296 --> 00:41:06,797
usually made from chickpea flour.
874
00:41:06,881 --> 00:41:09,884
And someone, while cooking it,
made a mistake,
875
00:41:09,967 --> 00:41:12,636
or a locho as they call it,
ended up with a custard.
876
00:41:12,720 --> 00:41:14,054
Richard was a locho.
877
00:41:14,138 --> 00:41:17,349
[all laughing]
878
00:41:18,100 --> 00:41:19,310
You're serious about that.
879
00:41:20,019 --> 00:41:22,897
He definitely is paying
for taking that piece of bacon.|
880
00:41:22,980 --> 00:41:24,565
[laughs]
881
00:41:24,648 --> 00:41:27,276
-Look at him go!
-[Richard] No more for him.
882
00:41:27,359 --> 00:41:29,236
Here, Richard. You'll need some crisps.
883
00:41:29,320 --> 00:41:32,114
So, corn was in season
when we heard that story,
884
00:41:32,198 --> 00:41:34,658
so at the bottom, you've got a corn locho.
885
00:41:34,742 --> 00:41:37,578
It's got a scallion chutney
and aged pepper cheese,
886
00:41:37,661 --> 00:41:40,456
and it's got corn crispies
on top of all the bites.
887
00:41:40,539 --> 00:41:42,917
[playful music playing]
888
00:41:47,171 --> 00:41:49,215
Oh my God, there's a lot going on.
889
00:41:49,298 --> 00:41:52,343
The texture, the crispiness
and the softness underneath.
890
00:41:52,426 --> 00:41:55,513
Texture is something
Floyd used to talk about a lot.
891
00:41:55,596 --> 00:41:58,265
What was amazing
about being with Chef Floyd
892
00:41:58,349 --> 00:42:02,102
was just his love to share
the information he had over the years.
893
00:42:02,186 --> 00:42:04,021
We wouldn't be where we are without him.
894
00:42:04,104 --> 00:42:08,317
He went from being a boss, to a friend,
to a mentor, to everything.
895
00:42:08,400 --> 00:42:09,652
-That's great.
-And...
896
00:42:09,735 --> 00:42:13,614
And I think he's left
his thought process in each one of us,
897
00:42:13,697 --> 00:42:16,617
and we each interpret it
in a different way on a different day.
898
00:42:16,700 --> 00:42:18,202
And that's the beauty of it.
899
00:42:18,285 --> 00:42:20,204
And you take the legacy forward.
900
00:42:20,871 --> 00:42:25,000
{\an8}Here's a nice thing.
In memory of Floyd Cardoz's work,
901
00:42:25,084 --> 00:42:29,630
{\an8}they've started bottling his masalas,
different spice mixes.
902
00:42:29,713 --> 00:42:32,550
And for every jar
they sell of these masalas,
903
00:42:32,633 --> 00:42:34,176
a dollar goes to charity.
904
00:42:34,260 --> 00:42:36,762
I have to say, you honor him.
905
00:42:36,845 --> 00:42:37,680
[Sameer] Thank you.
906
00:42:38,430 --> 00:42:40,391
I would like to keep honoring him.
907
00:42:40,891 --> 00:42:42,476
-There you go.
-There you go.
908
00:42:42,560 --> 00:42:45,145
[gentle music playing]
909
00:42:48,816 --> 00:42:50,150
[Phil] When I first got here,
910
00:42:50,234 --> 00:42:52,653
maybe I was a little intimidated
by all the people.
911
00:42:53,904 --> 00:42:57,116
But now, not only do I not mind it,
912
00:42:57,950 --> 00:42:59,493
there's kind of a thrill about it.
913
00:43:01,787 --> 00:43:05,624
All these cultures living together,
struggling together,
914
00:43:06,292 --> 00:43:10,963
celebrating together
is kind of what Mumbai is all about.
915
00:43:12,214 --> 00:43:17,094
What makes it really nice
is that every face you look at
916
00:43:17,177 --> 00:43:18,971
is smiling back at you,
917
00:43:19,555 --> 00:43:22,474
and these are some of the most
beautiful smiles in the world.
918
00:43:24,101 --> 00:43:28,606
Just a baby step out of my comfort zone,
and this beautiful world was waiting.
919
00:43:31,233 --> 00:43:35,988
I want to thank all my friends here,
old and new, for showing me their Mumbai.
920
00:43:37,489 --> 00:43:41,118
And I hope you all get to have
this maximum experience too.
921
00:43:43,329 --> 00:43:44,163
Mumbye!
