Methi Thepla Over Margherita Pizza On A Family Trip To Italy
Digital creator Aryan Kataria is on a family vacation to Italy. Now, the country is a haven for food lovers, but you can take an Indian family out of India, but you can’t take their craving for desi food away! So, instead of the usual pasta and pizzas you’d expect them to enjoy, they feasted on endless theplas, kachoris, bhel, and more!
In a hilarious and oh-so-relatable video on Instagram, captioned “This is everything I ate in Italy”, Aryan shows how he and his family ate theplas for a snack, during dinners, and while sightseeing in Italy as well. They also enjoyed kachori, pre-packed poha, bhel, chakli, and paneer butter masala with naan.
While digging into some bhel, Aryan hilariously said, “Abhi tak ek pizza nahi naseeb hua hai!”
