[FOXHOUND]

SUPERB VID THANKS! REALLY ENJOYED THIS.

[kennethwu]

Very enjoyable video..loads of energy 😊

How can he leave out restaurants in Wembley and Southall? This is an Indian food guide for people who don't like Indian food.

This guy really slaps! I love his commentary on each of these restaraunts

[PokhrajRoy.]

Karan Gokani is awesome! 👏🏽
(Loved the shoutout to ‘Hoppers’)

[wandrlist]

What, he finishes at his own restaurant?! How shameless can one be!

[ThamillenthyManoharan]

Why don’t you visit to @prabha restaurant in South Harrow

[rickyraja]

Got this very wrong. He is showing bias evidenced by Hoppers being predominantly Sri Lankan. Dishoom is the best place in London for affordable Indian food that is consistent every time. Brigadiers is pricier but nice. The Gujaratis and Punjabis will tell you the best places in London, South Indian food is essentially Sri Lankan.

Oh come on!! Sponsored by the cult of Hare Rama and then proceeds to talk about his own restaurant? What’s the point. You thought you were being “authentic” cause you had chaat? London is the best city in the world for food, and especially Indian food outside India and this in no way showcases any of the places worth visiting.

[nknak]

Plug your own restaurant… tbh, that’s the most Indian thing I’ve ever seen 😂

[satsatdown]

govindas is highly average, the bread is awful too

[Neveruser]

Haha what a self nom of a video! How can he mention his own place like it’s the best 😂 don’t listen to him, just go to southall, tooting, Wembley, east Ldn and enjoy

[theseeker]

Hoppers doesn’t even have real Sri Lankan food they just duped gullible people

[superdonthegod]

Bro barely touched the food. Y'all be wasting food out here
