Desi Cultural Exports

We see Desi society following trends in western countries. Their food, their clothing, their life style.

Considering millions of Desis living in different western countries, did they introduced their culture there and left an impact on western society?

Have Non-Desis adapted our foods, clothing, etc?

Re: Desi Cultural Exports

Re: Desi Cultural Exports

lol. they love biryani.

Re: Desi Cultural Exports

Well curry is probably popular in UK because of the British colonizer, who developed a taste for Indian/sub continent food during the British Raj. And took it with them when they wen back home.

Re: Desi Cultural Exports

I heard chikken tikka is national food of UK :hehe:

Re: Desi Cultural Exports

Me too:D

Re: Desi Cultural Exports

Yes they love curry, daal chawal, and biryani.
Whenever I go to a desi restaurant I find so many gora people eating there.

Re: Desi Cultural Exports

unhe mirchen nahin lagti?

Re: Desi Cultural Exports

Some gora lik spicy food, but when you order your food they always ask you if you want your food less spicy or the normal bit high spicy.
So if they don’t like Mirchen they will say less spicy.

One at work I was asked to make biryani,I made my Sindhi biryani with lots of red n hari Mirchen :smack: no one like it :frowning:
After that I made pulao which was less spicy and everyone loved it.

Re: Desi Cultural Exports

Even eyebrow threading is very popular lately!

Re: Desi Cultural Exports

Cringe-worthy Bollywood. In West, only desis watch them, but in many third world and Arab countries, even native ladies love the whole song-and-dance-nonsense.

Re: Desi Cultural Exports

No I've never been to west. What do you mean by desi century?
