Thank you for reading until the end. Some people like it, some don't.

Some people can't eat it at all, some people can eat it.

But for some people, like us, we love it. It's very delicious.

Indian food, it must be someone who likes spices and has no prejudice against India.

It must be someone who likes to know, likes to try, and is open-minded. Because not everyone will like it, will love to eat it.

Even worse, some people are prejudiced and don't know how to eat it. They don't know how to choose a restaurant, they don't know how to eat it, and it's not delicious. The result is a very negative review.

I want to tell Thai people that if you can try it, you should try it yourself.

Some things you can try, try it. Don't make a decision based on what other people say.

A Culinary Journey Through India: A Personal Exploration of Flavors

This article chronicles a personal journey of culinary discovery in India, where the author's initial apprehension about the cuisine transformed into a deep appreciation and love for its diverse and flavorful dishes.

The author's first trip to India was marked by a cautious approach to the local food, influenced by online reviews and personal anxieties. However, this initial hesitation quickly dissipated as they were captivated by the vibrant flavors and aromas of Indian cuisine.

This newfound love for Indian food led to multiple trips to the country, with each visit offering a deeper understanding and appreciation for its culinary traditions. The author emphasizes the authenticity of their experience, highlighting the genuine enjoyment they derive from the food.

Beyond the architectural marvels, the friendly people, and the lively atmosphere, Indian cuisine stands out as a highlight of the author's experiences. The article delves into the author's favorite dishes, offering a glimpse into their personal culinary preferences and the captivating flavors that have captured their heart.

This personal narrative invites readers to embark on a culinary journey alongside the author, exploring the diverse and delectable world of Indian cuisine.

1. Chicken Curry (Starting with my favorite dish)

The appearance of each restaurant varies. The top picture shows a delicious meal at a restaurant in Agra. The bottom picture shows a spicy dish at a restaurant in Delhi, which was a bit greasy but still very tasty overall.

The taste is like a spicy curry, hot and spicy. It's delicious with rice or naan bread. I think this dish is easy to eat, as long as you're not someone who judges things by their appearance. Don't let the scary or unappetizing color fool you. This chicken curry is truly delicious.

In addition to chicken curry, there is also a vegetarian curry option (mixed vegetables without meat). It's just as delicious.


2. Momo (Very delicious)

The picture shows Momo Chili, a spicy stir-fried Momo. It's delicious, I would rate it 100 out of 10.

However, there is also a non-stir-fried version of Momo, which is steamed and served with sauce.

Momo is essentially a dumpling, but with various fillings such as chicken and vegetables.

3. Mushroom Pizza

This is just pizza, you know. The taste is... well, like any other pizza. It's okay.


4. Milkshake, chocolate milkshake, and coffee milkshake are very delicious and smooth.

The picture below shows a matcha-flavored Mille crepe cake. It looks delicious!

There is also a hot version, which is just as fragrant and smooth as the cold version.

5. Chinese Stir-Fried Chili Dishes

These dishes are delicious, with a predominantly spicy and flavorful profile. While they might be too intense for those who don't enjoy spice, they are highly recommended for those who do. Even as someone who typically avoids tofu, I found myself thoroughly enjoying the tofu chili dish.

Another delicious menu is the Mushroom Chili, which is just as heavenly.

6. Jalebi: A Sweet Treat

Our recent trip to India included a dedicated exploration of Indian sweets. As the saying goes, "sweets are meant to be sweet," and many Thais who have tried them before would agree that they are indeed very sweet. Our Indian companion (a man) ordered Jalebi for us, and it lived up to its reputation! Borrowing a phrase from the character Mae Karaket, "a diabetic would drop dead instantly after taking a bite." It was incredibly sweet, even for someone like me who enjoys sweets. While delicious, overindulging would be unwise.

7. Rabdi

Jalebi dipped in Rabdi, a thick, creamy dessert resembling whipped condensed milk, creates a delightful combination. The intense sweetness of Jalebi is balanced by the creamy texture of Rabdi, resulting in a harmonious flavor experience. The cloying sweetness of Jalebi is effectively neutralized, creating a truly satisfying treat.

8. Pani Puri: A Mumbai Delight

Another favorite of ours is pani puri, known as golgappe in Delhi. This crispy, hollow fried dough is filled with a variety of ingredients, including potatoes, chickpeas, and chutneys. The pani puri is then dipped in a flavorful green water, creating a delightful explosion of textures and tastes. The combination of sweet, spicy, salty, and tangy flavors is simply irresistible.

9. Pakoda (Veg.) is a savory, deep-fried fritter made with various vegetables and potatoes. It's a popular and delicious snack.

There's also a version with chili peppers instead of vegetables.

10. Chai (Chai Tea) - This is a must-try, it's delicious and very fragrant.

We can honestly say that after trying Indian chai, Thai tea doesn't taste as good anymore. At least, that's our opinion.

11. Mango juice is simply mango juice, like eating mango without the hassle of chewing, so you just swallow it.

12. Jeera rice (vegetable fried rice): This is a vegetarian dish without meat.

When we are in India with our friend, we eat vegetarian food because she eats that way and she always pays. We have to follow her lead.

13. Dal Makhani with Chapati & Papad (Veg.)

Dal Makhani is a vegetarian dish similar to chicken curry, but spicier. It is served with Chapati and Papad, which are Indian flatbread and crispy fried potato wafers, respectively. The top layer is a thick, soft Chapati, while the bottom layer is crispy Papad.


This is a blank paragraph.

14. Chow Mein: Indian-Style Chinese Noodles (Vegetarian)

This dish was delicious! It comes with two sauces, one red and one light green. I forgot to take a picture of the sauces, but the red one tasted like tomato sauce, although not exactly like the kind we have at home. It was very tasty with the noodles. The green sauce had a strong, distinctly Indian flavor. The noodles were delicious on their own, even without the sauces.

15. Del k bade (Veg.)

The round, potato-like object was deep-fried and coated in a green sauce. Despite its unappetizing appearance, it was surprisingly delicious. As I carefully picked it up and took a bite, I noticed the people around me watching with anticipation. When I turned to them and said, "It's good and very spicy, but I like it," everyone smiled. The taste was salty and spicy, with a strong emphasis on the saltiness. Those who are not fond of salty food might not enjoy it, as the saltiness is quite noticeable. However, the spiciness balances out the saltiness, making it a flavorful combination. I personally enjoyed it.

  1. Chicken Tandoori Sandwich

Add cheese, salty, spicy, pungent, tongue-numbing. But we like spicy, so it's delicious. But there are too many vegetables.


17. Kheer

This sweet dish is served warm and is easy on the stomach. It is filling but not too heavy. It also contains cashew nuts. When you eat the peanuts, it cuts through the sweetness, making it a delicious sweet and savory combination.

18. A set meal, I can't remember the name, but it was delicious.


19. Puri chole

Crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, served with a spicy chickpea curry. The curry next to the chickpea curry is sweet and comes with chopped onions as a side dish.

I really, really, really like it.


20. Chicken biryani

Similar to our Thai chicken rice, but with a stronger flavor and aroma.

When asked if there were any dishes they didn't like, the respondent mentioned three: Dosa Masala, Raj Kachori, and Chole Khulche. They clarified that the dishes weren't bad, just not to their taste.

The respondent described Raj Kachori as having a strange texture, similar to yogurt and sour milk blended into a mousse but served warm. They mentioned that it contained ingredients like flour and nuts that didn't seem to go well together. They admitted to quickly chewing and swallowing the dish upon taking a bite, finding it unpleasant. They apologized to the person who made the dish and quickly finished their glass of water, fearing they might have hurt their feelings. The person laughed and said:

Person: You're not a true Indian woman yet.

Respondent: (Thinking to themselves: "But I'm Thai!") Ah, okay.

Person: This is a dish that will test your Indianness. It's very Indian, very Indian.

Respondent: Oh, okay. I'll eat it then. (They continued eating but found it difficult to swallow. The person told them to stop and laughed.)

Person: You're not Indian.

Respondent: (Realizing their mistake) Yes, I'm not Indian. I'm Thai.

Person: (Chuckling and patting their head) You're half Thai, half Indian, dear.

Respondent: (Smiling widely)

(The large, round object next to the pani puri is Raj Kachori.)
