The video is a travelogue of a street food tour in Amritsar, a city in northern India. The host, Trevor James, is excited about the trip and the street food he's about to experience. He mentions the rich culture and the famous Sikh temple, the Golden Temple, which attracts millions of visitors per year.
The tour begins with the Kulcha, a famous street food from Amritsar. Trevor explains how the Kulcha is baked in a tandoor oven and stuffed with a potato onion mix. He also mentions the importance of the kurta and turban he's wearing, as it's mandatory to cover the head in the Golden Temple and for the food tour.
Trevor and his companion then visit a corner shop in Amritsar's back alleyways, where they find a huge selection of snacks like gulab jamun, semolina pudding, and a flat grill covered in a chicken and tofu curry. They also visit a famous lassi joint, where they get to see the magic of making lassi, a popular drink in India.
The tour continues with a visit to the 100-year-old Kessar Da Dhaba, a vegetarian hot spot serving Punjabi specialties. Trevor and his companion are allowed to take a look in the back kitchen and smell the incredible aroma of spices, butter, and naan bread all being pumped out of the tandoor oven. They try a variety of Punjabi specialties, including Dhal, paneer curries, a bean stew, and a chole.
After trying each one of these amazing curries, enjoying some rice, and kulfi ice cream for dessert, they made their way to try a few more street foods with the little room they had left. Starting with the famous mango leather stall, where they take mango, cover it in tons of spices and mouth-puckering sauces. They also try the aam papad, a specialty of dried mango.
Trevor concludes the video by saying that the meal at Kessar Da Dhaba was the best Indian vegetarian meal he's ever had, and that the city of Amritsar is a truly beautiful city with a rich culture and delicious street food.
