Chef Page #6

---

- Still alive.

- Nazrul uncle.

- You recognized me.

- How are you, Mr. Ary.

- Great.

Just a second...

You forgot something back in New York.

Might come in handy.

For you, boss.

The Chef's Knife.

This is the chef's greatest ally.

You know, this is as important as

Sachin Tendulkar selecting his bats.

So, shall we get to business?

Let's make a list of equipment.

It'll be difficult

to find all this in Kochi.

But anyway, I'll talk to Radha.

Your father is pre-historic.

Boss, these days the shop comes to us.

Look...

Okay, so I am thinking

a griller, fryer.

Okay.

Washer, hot plate,

Refrigerator, sinks...

Water tank.

You do have a credit card, don't you?

"We're all in this together."

"If it's the sun today"

"...it will be the shade tomorrow."

"Like nomads,

we set out without a care."

"Every moment in life is a dance."

"Carefree we set out... and the

wheels will start turning."

"Like nomads, without

a care we dance to our own tune."

"There's a star in

the sky... praying for us."

"Look up once

and it'll break away."

"Hey wanderer..."

"Hey wanderer..."

"Hey wanderer..."

"Keep walking without a care."

"I tripped a couple of times..."

...before I've learnt how to walk."

"When I got tired of walking..."

...I learnt how to fly."

"Sometimes walking...

sometimes flying..."

"That's how wanderers make their way."

"Sometimes on the streets...

"Sometimes with the stars

"That's how wanderers make their way."

"Hey wanderer..."

"Hey wanderer..."

"Hey wanderer..."

"Keep walking without a care."

"Wanderer..."

Armaan saw me punch

that guy on Twitter.

Ridiculous.

Nothing is personal these days.

Of course there is...

- Tinder.

- Tinder?

- To hook up.

- What nonsense.

Yeah... Make your profile on Tinder.

Whoever likes you,

makes a connection.

And then... much more.

Why wasn't I born 20 years later?

Whether a girl liked you or not...

There was something

about that suspense

The wait, trying to find out...

Later, dropping little hints

And, when you run out of hints...

...you say "Baby, let's take

our relationship to the next level".

Then that would lead to much more.

Those were the good old days

Boss, no one has that

much time these days.

It's either swipe right,

or swipe left... or go to hell.

I bet Akbar felt like

this when he made Taj Mahal.

No!

Why?

Ohh... it wasn't Akbar...

...but his workers who made

the Taj Mahal!

- What?

- No!

Because it wasn't Akbar who made

the Taj Mahal, Shahjahan did.

But you're right, his workers did.

The Labor Union here would've

been really happy with Shahjahan.

Hey...

Papa, I am busy.

Come on, I need to show you something.

- What?

- Come-come-come, don't be boring.

Come.

Boss!

Boss, this is Alex.

Alex Oomen, full name.

Roshan, half the name for now.

Nazrul, what is this?

I mean... he's got a

national permit, ex-army.

He's been driving the state

transport buses for many years.

I see that.

But, this isn't a bus,

it's a restaurant.

Along with national permit,

I even know the national language.

You're talking about a restaurant.

I've even driven a tank.

That's great,

but we're not going to attack anyone.

We need customers... and that too alive.

So please,

be gentle and drive carefully.

Wow... this is so cool.

Mom!

- There was a dead rat here.

- Where?

Not here, mom. upstairs,

when we were cleaning the bus.

I put it in a polythene

bag and threw it away.

Really? You did that?

Yeah... I told papa that I will help.

So it wouldn't be fair

if I do all the easy jobs...

- And, tell papa to do the rest.

- Proud of you, Ary.

Of course, papa helped out a little.

Let's go up.

Baudi... there's nothing upstairs.

We'll be cooking down here.

- Wow, Roshan. This is amazing.

- Thank you.

Just thank you won't cut it.

I want a ride.

Well, I don't know.

There still work left to do.

And, I don't want to take

it out before them

I hope you will feed us too,

Of course we will.

Wow!

Ary... careful.

Hey...

What are you doing?

Driving from my heart.

Look, don't try to be funny.

- Drive slowly...

- So, you should've said that.

I just did...

If we want to make Aviyyal,

we'll use the mixer.

You don't have to

drive like this, okay.

Sorry...

Someone who uses a fork

and spoon is teaching me to drive.

What did you say?

Never mind

Alex. Alex...

Alex!

- That bloody Mallu...

- Mom, papa's using bad words.

What else should I do with this Alex?

With his national permit he could

also have a gun permit.

Okay, guys, sorry.

- Thank you.

- Thanks, papa.

How is it?

I love my nose.

I don't want to change its

shape by telling the truth.

I am trying to change, and you...

Then, try to change the menu.

First, forget 'Galli'

where you were the star.

NRIs and foreigners ate those

in the name of Indian Street food...

...but, if you try to serve this here,

you'll actually be out on the streets.

You were still polite...

- Delhi people will beat me up.

- Delhi?

It's a big city.

And, at least when

Delhi guys nod their head...

...I know exactly what they want.

I've better chances out there.

And, what if Delhi doesn't work out?

Where to next?

Back to the US.

I asked some friends to look around.

I need a backup. Don't I?

Wow! Since when did Roshan

K need a backup plan?

Bro...

- Bro...

- Yeah.

If you've calmed down,

can we go.

I want an apology.

Sorry, bro... a hundred times sorry.

Let's go.

Not you... your Englishman.

He'll have to say sorry.

Don't worry I'll even make

the bus say sorry. Let's go, please.

Wait.

Let me finish this.

You two call yourselves cooks,

don't you?

Not cooks, Chef!

Chef!

A chef is someone

who can make this.

Wow... amazing.

You like? Is it good?

It's making my mouth water.

Fresh!

Come on...

Everything pure ...organic.

- Do you... understand organic?

- Yeah, of course.

No malinyum

He's saying no adulteration.

Cooking with verega

Verega, verega

Wood-Wood... not gas.

That's what gives it taste.

He's right.

Do you own this place?

As if...

- This useless guy?

- What?

- He doesn't own this place?

- No.

These kind of people!

Woah...

Those drunks,

Early in the morning...

Couldn't tell if

they were talking to me or...

Our town is like this only

Boss... Boss, it's better to leave.

- We've got some tough competition here.

- Alex, buddy...

I was really worried.

First apologize.

I am sorry.

Fine, it's okay.

But, I had an idea

when I was having a drink.

Are people coming

here to eat your food...

...or watch my driving?

What's more important,

a running restaurant...

...or a restaurant that runs.

Then why a bus, why not a shed?

If our bus is going

to stay parked in one place...

...then what's the point

in going to a mobile restaurant?

And, that's what sets our bus

apart from the regular food trucks.

I am a chef,

and people will come to eat my food.

They can even go

sight-seeing in a taxi.

People should come for my food,

That should be the only reason.
