A video of an interaction between an US blogger and an India boy was posted on YouTube. The video has won people's hearts.
An US blogger who goes by Desi Chris often travels extensively around India to capture the beauty of the country. From interacting with locals to trying different cuisines, his videos are often interesting to watch. One such video of his shared on YouTube has left people smiling as it captures his interaction with a very polite teen. The video shows how the 16-year-old boy reacts when Chris offers to pay for his food.
“After enjoying some delicious veg cuisine with my new friends Asif and Shiv at the Bihari Chai Shop, I wanted to continue eating vegetarian for the day. From some of my research, I had found a lot of interesting takes on traditionally “American” dishes in a place called Krishna Nagar way out in East Delhi. Along the way I had some delicious food and met some really interesting characters. Hope you enjoy,” the blogger wrote as he shared the video.
The clip opens to show him trying a dish called ‘Kulhad pizza’. Once he eats that, he continues his search for delicious vegetarian food and decides to have a ‘Cheese-paneer hotdog’ from a street vendor. This is where he meets the teen.
