@@ytnayon they got upset because they thought they were scammed. In reality they were not scammed. Also 4.5 pounds for a two person meal is not a scam by any means.

It wasn’t scam to the people who live in aisa specially the country like Bangladesh,india, Pakistan. We saw that you have ordered only chicken but after that they have bring some special recipes from the restaurant. As you guys are the tourist and that’s why they just tried to serve you the best with special one. One more important thing is that the bill was 630 . You didn’t notice the paper that they served you after your dinner. May be they returned you change around 370 taka which you didn’t saw or count. So before traveling somewhere you should know the culture and the hospitality from those countries. Thanks for understanding.

Scammers

The bill was 630 taka, you paid 1000 and they returned you plenty of notes, so 370 taka. If they charged you 890, you would have gotten just one 10 taka note back. Also, as they gave you the daal, you should have used that with the rice to eat the fish and the eggplant items. Do not check your common sense at the door as you travel around the would, and you will get much more out of your experiences. Happy travels.

Actually those fish balls, youre supposed to take a tiny bit from those and mix it with rice; then eat it. This technique goes for almost all Bangladeshi dishes, you mix with rice then eat it. By the way, the old man in the background (at fry shop) was creeping me out🙂.

When someone wants you to take you to a shop by force , its better to not to go to their shop. Because either they will be very nice or they will be very scammy or creepy. That shop was definitely a creepy one. So learn how to say no to these people . Not everybody has bad intentions though.most of Bengali people are very welcoming, curious and hospitable. And its much safer than india . So, hope you have nice trip there

That is not fish ball guys.....that is fish vorta.....in Bangladesh it is a traditional process to make vorta with all kind of food...like fish..meat and vegetables.... if u eat this vorta without rice u cant be able to take taste....u must eat vorta with bowl rice....it will taste good....and this how take vorta....

Awesome video guys!! Don't feel shy to get help from people nearby whenever you feel you're getting scammed. People in general are friendly here. If you can, try to get suggestions from local food vloggers first and use google maps to go anywhere.

Hii guys, on the bill it is written 630 taka but he is saying 800 taka and Alan thought it was 890 taka.. hahaha that was funny.. but the good thing is, I think and hope they did not overcharged you guys. Shannon gave 1000 tk note, and they returned you 200+ (couldn’t see all the returned notes). I hope they returned you around 370 tk. It’s good that you did not gave them any tips. They were not suppose to ask for tips and put you in an awkward situation. There are several super delicious foods in Dhaka and all over Bangladesh, please check with some genuine informative people to find out the treasures. You can search for some good food and travel reviewers for your support. Wish you both a safe and fun time Bangladesh. Cheers

Street side restaurants are known as Hotel in Bangladesh. Strange naming but it is what it is named. When you visit any hotel like this, they might bring items to you. Don't eat without knowing what you are eating. And you pay for what you eat. I know it is being bit strange but it is usually the system. Better ask for a menu or what they have. From your video I feel like that you are roaming around Motijheel, Paltan, Dhaka University and New Market. You should try some food from Puran Dhaka. If you ever plan to visit Bangladesh again, visit countryside. You gonna love it.

Shannon and Alan, must try old Dhaka street food, must!!!

First of all welcome to the land of rivers , Bangladesh Usually the city stays busy from daytime to night time . And you will not find a path to walk on properly ( also be careful with your belongings while you go outside ). You can try to eat in popular ( known places ) and always see / ask for the menu first or when you dont know the price of it..try to ask a local they might help you! Secondly , our first metro which spans from uttara north mathajheel. You can visit that :3 Moreover you can visit DOHS and cantonment or that side of the area for a peaceful walk . And lastly.dont fully rely on google maps because we have small lanes almost everywhere. (dont forgot to visit mirpur and try food there trust me you wont regret it ) Have a nice and safe visit in Bangladesh 👌

Hey i have been following u for a very long time now and i always wish had a chance to meet u at some point.

I found that in Dhaka, when I ate in some resturants, they would just bring out random dishes and charge you for it, so what you need to do, is if they approach your table with stuff you haven't ordered, you need to tell them to take it back as you don't want it. The sides you tried, are supposed to be mixed with the rice. The "slimey" one you ate is made out of aubergine.

Actually they offer extra food for show. If you dont try them then you dont have to pay for that but if you eat them then you have to pay. 😅😅

Western Vloggers always says everything is cheap in Asia. This is wrong because it seem cheap when you converted back to your currency like USD, Euro and Pounds because the value of these currency are way higher. But it is not cheap for the locals when they earn in their own currency. And when these videos surfaced in KZread, words of cheap food somehow gets to them and they increases their price.

There is generally no tipping culture in most of Asia. Sadly Americans go round tipping left right and centre and therefore some people expect all westerners to flash the money around. You can round up or let them keep some of the change but in general no need to tip.

Well people tip but on occasions.. Mainly in ceremonies where the get a hefty food and then tip the waiter

Hi. local low end restaurants waiters normally expect a tip, although this guy was a bit too forward. You guys would have gotten an earful in the US if you didn’t give a tip. Also you could have told the waiter what you didn’t want to eat or stop sending other items. But the guy wasn’t upselling you. In Bangladesh the restaurants don’t scam tourists like they do in Egypt and Turkey

Never visit a restaurant which doesn't have a menu card. Customer rights officers in Bangladesh will sue them for this, Having a menu Card in a restaurant is mandatory

You gotta try some sweets !

Those of items are borta we take those with rice not raw. And it's make for take with rice not raw. And first one isn, t fish ball it was fish borta make by smashed fish with some spicees

Wrong way of having smashed fish ball lol I guess you can use Korean Bhai has guide how to eat stuff

pieae go to the guitar shop in dhaka bangladesh....

The tip issue in this country is getting out of hand, everyone usually pays 10 or 20 cents as tips to them since they don't earn much from the salaries, but you can also not tip them if you want

The problem is that you don't know how to eat it. That is common dishes people eat there as a lunch or dinner. Everything there has to be eaten with rice, not alone. The fish ball is deep friend and that's why you have to eat it. it's not the Scottish Haggis

That was actually eggplant mashed with onions, herbs, and spices. The Shawarma is not even a Bangladeshi food which you are comparing with. Sorry to say this but it is the norm here; the waiter gives you a bit extra service expecting some tip in return. But you wouldn't get charged for the extra food they bring in if you don't touch it.

14:15 you guys should have a local guide eat properly. The vorta/fish ball suppose to eat with rice.

Funny to see how you guys ate the smashed fish or fish bhorta and smashed eggplant. It is not actually meant to eat as it is, you were supposed to eat it with rice. In Bangladesh, when we are having lunch or dinner and rice is on the table, we take a little bit and mix it up with rice. Anyway, normally in this sort of restaurant, people give them around 20 to 30 taka tips and these guys are quite used to it. Maybe they mentioned it thinking you might not know about it, but it's up to the customers if they want to tip or not.
