If you’ve followed me for a while, you’ll probably know that I love Indian food. From flavorful biryanis to succulent masalas, to street foods like pav bhaji, samosas, and pani puri, I can’t get enough.

In 2021, I took an amazing trip to the United Arab Emirates to experience the country’s best Indian food. I wound up spending several days in Dubai, a city known for its exceptional wealth, luxurious accommodations, and legendary nightlife. But it’s also one of the best cities outside of India to experience authentic Indian cuisine! I even caught up with my friend The Food Ranger for some incredible Indian Food!

I’ve eaten my way across the Indian subcontinent across four massive trips that took me to cities like Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai, Kolkata, Guwahati, and Trivandrum. Along the way, I fell in love with the unique flavors, spices, and ingredients that Indian cuisine is known for.
 
With nearly 3 million people of Indian descent living in the UAE, it’s no surprise that their food has become an important part of the local culture. In this documentary, I’m taking you into Dubai with some special guests as we dive into the wonders of Indian food in the UAE. Let’s go!

  1. I love your videos, my mouth waters when I watch all the delicious food you eat. You need to come to Kentucky and have some of our home cooked food. We are known for our southern cooking

  2. Hi David …viewing now..Indian foods tastes good no matter what country it's cooked in……simply because of the awesome curries …spices …chilies….I know this will be another good one…Thanks and have a safe and blessed day. Peace.

  3. Thanks for highlighting Indian food in UAE and it’s history,well done !!!,god bless u David .❤️

  4. Fish and Chips 🤣🤣🤣🤦🏻‍♂️
    Lived in London for 10+ years. Tried them at Mr. basic – Jamie's to Mr. overpriced – Gordon to many other places and smaller cities of UK…still doesn't come close to Indian food maturity, flavours and diversity by a Trillion Light years. I mean the Scottish Haggis, or the rabbit meat pies in Oxford have more flavours that the boring and bland FnC. That's why if you take out Indian or other Asian food influences from UK….only Italian and French remain as decent food options.

  5. It’s not a crazy fact that Dubai is 40% Indian. It’s called slave labour. It’s amazing what having money while others try to survive will do.

  6. David when you come to Mumbai next, try to cover the North of Mumbai for its "Portuguese" influenced food of the east Indians. There is this place called Vasai and a lot of East Indian Christians call it home especially in a small locality called Giriz. their recipes are very different from the regular street food you find in Mumbai. Vasai Palghar and Dahanu are 3 places which should be on your list, that is if you have not visited these places already !! There are some videos on youtube about food in these places if you want to check it out.

  7. 😅😅CHICKEN TIKKA MASALA WAS MADE I GLASGOW IN THE 70S MADE FROM A TIN OF TOMATOE SOUP THAT IS TRUE BUT AS FOR IT BEING THE NATIONAL DISH THATS NOT RGT DAVID THERE R SOME AMAZING INDIAN AND BENGALY RESTAURANTS IN BRADFORD AND BIRMINGHAM WHERE THE BALTI CAME FROM OR REALY ANYWHERE THERES A INDIAN OR PAKISTANI PRESENTS
