We hop on a journey of delicious Korean delights with fan favourite Anushka Sen in this episode of Tere Gully Mein. Although we have seen her in shows like Fear Factor: Khatron Ke Khiladi and Jhansi Ki Rani, our girl has travelled the world as the Honorary Ambassador of Korean Tourism and will soon be on TV screens in Korea. We walked around the streets of Kandivali, trying all sorts of desi Korean dishes. Let’s find out what Anushka Sen loves to eat!
This Is Anushka Sen’s Favourite Korean Street Food
Anushka Sen, along with our host, end up at a popular ramen stall during the episode. Korean ramen is a dish well-loved by our generation. It is warm, comforting and spicy! As the duo pick their favourite ramen flavours, Megha, our host asks Anushka her favourite Korean street food. Since Anushka Sen has travelled widely around Korea, she must have a favourite, Megha says.
“Tteokbokki!” Anushka answers instantly, showing just how much she loves the dish. Tteokbokki is a popular Korean street food made with chewy rice cakes (tteok) cooked in a spicy, sweet, and savoury gochujang (Korean chili paste) sauce. Often enjoyed as a snack or casual meal, it is commonly paired with fish cakes, boiled eggs, and scallions, adding extra layers of flavor and texture.
Korean Food In Mahavir Nagar
Let’s talk a little about another star of this episode – Mahavir Nagar! The buzzing Korean street food scene brought us here. A recommendation by Anushka Sen.
Mahavir Nagar in Kandivali West, Mumbai, has developed into a bustling centre for fans of Korean street food. Among the notable establishments is K-Town, which is situated in Tenth Central Mall, close to D-Mart, that offers vegetarian and Jain options such as rice paper dumplings, corn dogs and hot dogs. Mahavir Nagar is a must-visit location for anybody looking to experience Korean street food in Mumbai because of these restaurants, which add to the area’s diverse culinary scene.
Watch the episode if you haven’t already and listen to Anushka Sen discuss her early years, her path, her Korean fan base, her dating life, and of course, eat delicious food!
