With so many incredible Indian restaurants in the New York City area, I knew I had to end my trip with a bang and go all-out. Join me as I eat Indian food for 24 hours in Parsippany, New Jersey!
Joining me is my friend Nisha, who told me that Parsippany is home to upwards of 10,000 Indian-Americans. Along with us were her husband Josh and my videographer, Yves.

👕 DAVID’S BEEN HERE MERCH: teespring.com/...
We started at Dhaba Express, which is owned by my friend Ankush! His chefs would be making us roughly 10 dishes. Everything from the curries to the naan looked so good!
Our dishes included chole bhature, aloo paratha, achari mushrooms, and more. We started with chole bhature, a dish I first tried on the streets of Delhi. I loved the chickpeas and light gravy. The bhature was doughy and tasty!
You eat the aloo paratha with dahi. It was stuffed with potatoes, chilies, cilantro, onions, and a delicious masala. We followed that with a creamy lassi and the murgh khurchan pav, which is a toasted bread bun with a delicious and buttery chicken keema.
The tandoori chicken wings, achari mushrooms, and soya chop malai were next. The soya chop malai was creamy and incredible, while the achari mushrooms were smoky with a nice marinade.
I also loved the smoky tandoori chicken wings and mango chicken! The coconutty kori gassa took me right back to Kerala! It was my favorite so far!
Then, we headed to Jashan by Dhaba, another of Ankush’s restaurants. But first, we stopped at Delight Big Bazaar, the largest Indian grocery store in Parsippany. We saw lots of produce, like chilies. I bit into one and it almost killed me!
We also saw rose syrup, which they use to make falooda, idly rice, basmati rice, snacks, chaat mixes, and lassi! I needed the lassi after that pepper! We also saw Desi ghee, sweet chilly sauce, stainless steel cookware, and tons of spices!
As we continued, we also saw pani puris and them making kachoris. There’s also a mini bazaar where they sell clothing and jewelry! I bought my daughters some bangles.
Next was Jashan by Dhaba for lunch, where there was a party going on! After visiting the kitchen and sampling a bit of chicken, it was time to eat!
The lamb chops were moist and covered in an amazing masala. They were great with mint and tamarind chutneys. The paneer akbari was stuffed with three types of cheese and was very unique! I also loved the tangy and smoky tandoori chicken with the tamarind chutney!
The chatpata chicken came with lots of veggies! The honey crispy vegetables reminded me of honey chicken. Then, we jumped on the curries starting with the tender and moist bone-in butter chicken.
The goat curry was unreal with the sweet and nutty kashmiri naan. I loved the shaam savera kofta (dumplings in cashew gravy) with kashmiri naan and roomali roti. The gravy was good enough to drink!
I loved the paneer curry too, and added some rice to the gravies. Then, we finished with fresh lime soda before heading to House of Biryani’s & Kebabs. On the way, we passed a Hindu temple!
They serve lots of Hyderabadi food here! After visiting the kitchen, we enjoyed some haleem, Chicken 65, roast mutton, and gobi. The Chicken 65 was so flavorful, and the mango lassi cooled down my mouth. I loved the gobi, but the roast mutton was nice and spicy!
The haleem was thick and pasty, and the tandoori cornish hen was so tasty and spicy. Their lamb chops blew my mind and the mutton biryani was fatty and flavorful! Then, we finished with kheer, a type of sweet rice pudding!

I grew up in Parsippany and had many Indian friends and classmates growing up. I've eaten and shopped in some of these places. Great little tour!
fyi Sham=Evening savera=Morning here sham is the palak kofta (darak evening color) and savera is the gravy (bright morning orange color when sun comes out). So this dish is “shamsavera”
British did not make curries. In India we have different names. The British introduced the name curry for Indian style gravy & sauce.
Man I love watching this man!!!! I like how he tries all types of food without complaining about anything. People always criticize before they even try it. Love this man! He does not criticize or anything. He tries it then tells his opinion.
Love it, David, absolutely love your Indian food uploads👍you’re the perfect ambassador to represent India via simply eating out😊Always envious though, as you eat more and better Indian food than I😉thanks and keep on eating and giving us recommendations to try out varied Indian food at the restaurants all over US🙏

Hey David just a correction Kori chicken gashi is a mangalorean or udupi dish and not Kerala. Any dish with coconut in it doesn't mean will come only from Kerala. Coconut or be it curry leaves is almost used in all South India cuisines not only kerala cuisine. Do discover the luscious greenery of udupi, mangalore and you will be blown by the simplicity in food , people and culture. Do visit to try the sea food heaven in udupi mangalore side too. To quote further you have not even tasted 1% of what South India has to offer. Be it udupi, madurai, hyderabad, dharwad, the local cuisine of South India is not just limited to dose or idli. It has many more local delights which has not yet gained mainstream exposure but are no less than panner butter masala any given day.

India doesn't give their passports to non-Indians. They don't permit dual nationality. So you can be sure that most of the Indian-looking people in this video are not Indians in Indian law. They won't have Indian passports or Indian nationality. Indians love to become United States, Canadian, European, Australian and British passport-holders, because these passports open doors for them. Indian passports are essentially worthless, as can be ascertained from any of the major, passport-rating websites. However, in order to acquire these prestigious, White people's passports, Indians are required to surrender their Indian passports to India. When the slightest opportunity arises, Indians willingly dump their worthless passports and rush to get their White sahibs or memsahib's passport.
6:46 the david said, " lassi " is the exact way Punjabis say. Great david.
David is the Brand Ambassador of indian food and culture in America 👌
The food was amazing but Nisha was the star! Damn! She’s cute!
Friendly correction: As someone from all the way "North," they do NOT use spoons bruv! Also, Kashmiri "naan" is not a thing. It's a modern day Indian American restaurant invention. I swear they add nuts and raisins to anything and call it "Kashmiri." Real Kashmiri breads are tsot, ghyev tsot, lavasa, sheermal, katlam, bagarkhaani, girda, roath, and tilwor. Happy eating!
Thank You David for promoting Indian food. Love and Respect from India.
David knows Indian food & culture just like an Indian what I believe! outstanding, your love to India & Indians reflect in your blogs
Don't no why this channel isn't in the millions already?!
David, you, Mark Wiens and MexiPapa are my 3 favorite food vloggers.. Noone beats that dream team of entertainment!
Parsippany has a large Indian population so not surprisingly has many options for Indian cuisine. It is one of the best in my opinion. Chand Palace is a vegetarian restaurant worth trying. Down the road in Rockaway, Indian Aroma is one of the best in the area.
OMG! I grew up in Parsippany, well Lake Hiawatha! I graduated from Parsippany High in 2007 and have since moved to Southwest Delaware! It’s been soooo long since I’ve been home so it’s so nice to go back! The first restaurant u showed was MY FAV Indian restaurant when I lived there, it was called something else though. They’re butter chicken is the best!! Thank you for this video!!
There are so many restaurants in parsipanny where u can try like Bollywood grill , chand palace , honest , a2b , tandoori flames, spice grill , dosa house , dosa express , etc etc
I live in parsipanny and I’m so bummed I missed you! I’ve been a fan for so long! The way you eat Indian food with your hands is on point. Great job 👏🏽. I also love when you go back into the kitchen and show footage of how everything is made. Keep up the great work!

Hey David, it’s great you’re exploring Indian food in the US. Just a suggestion - The Kori Gassi that you had is not from Kerala it’s from Mangalore. Mangalore is also a coastal city but in Karnataka. They also use a lot of coconut in their cuisine and are known for great seafood and vegetarian foods. Would be great if you could explore the place when you’re in india the next time! Keep it going man 🤘🏼🤛🏼
I need this for my breakfast!
I have such a love and passion for Indian food myself so I found this channel. I gotta say....seeing two relatively small people eating so much fantastic food with a bottomless pit for a stomach is remarkable😄
paratha is made from whole wheat flour. naan is made from white refined flour and baking soda dough
Yesss, Jersey stand up!!! I just watch your mega video from last year. I’m officially in LOVE with Indian food. We have some great places in Bangkok, but your video had me wanting to catch a flight. Thank you : )
Groceries! Great fresh produce at big bazaar; not just Indian things. Also try subzi mandi on other side of I-287 if it's closer / easier to get to (same stuff, slightly smaller store, similar prices), and patel bros + more. There's a very good asian grocery store "top quality market" a few miles down the road (46 same side) for another whole range of cuisines. I love to cook a wide variety of international cuisines, and these stores are indispensable. There are several more in the area, and they all are worth a look.
David soon you will definitely hit 1 million subscribers best wishes from india
❤️❤️❤️loving ur Videos David!!Keep Going n keep loving Indian Food!!!❤️❤️❤️
Kori Gassi Means Chicken Curry in Tulu, and Tulu is the language spoken in around Mangalore City, Karnataka.
That's my town Parsippany, you surely visited the best places
I cannot wait to try everything since I live in North Jersey ,

One correction in the name of the dishes. "Kori Gassi" is a traditional Mangalorean/South Canara dish and not from Kerala. It is a coconut based Chicken gravy usually had with Rotti, Which is thin rice crisp wafers. The combination is called as Kori-Rotti. Yum!! :D

@10:19 actually Tandoor is not Indian subcontinent cuisine it is imported to that region when the meat eaters -- Turks, Mughals, Persian and other moved in from central Asia and the middle east - they still use Tandoor in those regions. Traditionally the subcontinent was " veg based society". Now you may call it "Indian Tandoori with mix of Indian species". In Persian they call it "Tanoor" - In the middle east traditionally they dug the hole underground and cook the meat as whole carcasses. The best "Tanoori" bread you find in Afghanistan, Uzbekistan in central Asia up to Turkey and beyond.
Addiction of India Food David's can't live One Day without indian food its like air to breath as ind Food to survive 😂😂
You were so close to us in NJ. Enjoy your food. Hope you visit again Jersey, we have tons of Indian restaurants here.
Ayeee David's learning doesn't cheers with biryani and uses separate spoons and take foods in plate eat small portions it's very happy to see that 😊
Your Indian co-host doesn't hide that she's very greedy. At the same time she's elegant the whole time. Not messy one bit. Her lips are always ready to be kissed.
These series are incredible bro! Keep up the great content!
I tried Dhaba Express for the first time along with the soya chop, a dish I'd never tried before, and likely wouldn't had I not watched this. Thanks for making such an appetizing video. You got me to branch out from the few local Indian places I'd been going to.

Hi David :) I love watching your videos over other vlogs. Bring Nina
My mom always said that tiny chillies are the most hot ones. May be try a big chili and trust me you will have a different experience. That Indian cucumber is actually snake guard. It’s extremely delecious. Quite common in southern part of India. I think Haleem is long cooked meat and wheat and other ingredients. Eating food with hand is awesome. Thank you for the amazing video. God bless you.
Variety of dishes. Everything looks appetizing. BTW the lady is so graceful and beautiful. Very informative to0..
I’ve never eaten Indian food. Now I can’t wait. I’ve been watching all your videos on Indian food. Thanks for sharing!
Just discovered your channel. I live in Parsippany. I don't really eat Indian food (beside some dishes that my neighbor has given me ( which have been really good) I shop at the Bazaar Big delight quite often. Great tour of the store and explanation of different items. Great to see a video about the local cuisine. I definitely want to try some of the restaurant dishes now. Thanks for highlighting our great town. :-)

I think you have tried more dishes than any indian has done, appreciate that
The spoons doesn't takes away the flavours but gives you a metallic after taste, and Indians absolutely hate it
This video is like going to a 3 day wedding and eating everything available... 😂😂😂..but I loved it so much ❤️❤️ Thankyou David for showing us the best that's there... ❤️❤️
The background music of the party adds a whole new magic to the video. Loved it ❤️✨
Nobody is talking about how soft-spoken that girl was💕💖 I love her voice...
Kori Gassi is a South Kannada/Canara word.... it is from Mangluru
Tops is the classic music too. 'Ek do teen' Maduri song was the most played song ever. 😁
The Bollywood songs are just like a cherry on top of the cake..❤❤

You finally got Lassi correctly pronounced. 😁👍👍👍 Love from Assam brother.
Every episode has got to have a missed fist bump 😆
In Vedic tradition, we eat with our hands because the five elements within them begin to transform food and make it digestible even before it reaches the mouth. This transformation also heightens the senses so that we can smell, taste and feel the texture of the foods we are eating.
OMG PHENOMENAL !!!!!! Awesome episode. Absolutely awesome. The lady is so lovely. Now I need food ❤️💚💙💓💜💓🖤💜

Wow I live in Livingston. I guess I'm going to Parsippany to eat some Indian food.. Thanks for the great video..
bhatura has curd in it to make it taste sour/ fermented. also has baking soda
I grew up here for 25 years and only live 30 minutes from here now! This is surreal and so amazing and cool!!! Thanks for coming and eating at my breeding grounds!!! I’ve been to so many of these restaurants and still do! This is SO COOL
Great episode. You guys certainly can eat. I am in total love with Neha, her grace and beauty is to die for, and man the gal can eat.

Hello David. A 'Desi' tip for you. If you eat raw green chilli or any spicy food, you can have a teaspoon of liquid Ghee to neutralize the effect. You can also rub Ghee on your lips like a lip balm as you mentioned in video that chilli is hitting on lips.
