Quotes6

  • Mansur: So I guess the cooking is now down to me.
  • Papa: Yes, mister.
  • Mansur: Oh, God!
  • Papa: What do you mean, "Oh, God"?
  • Mahira: Papa, it is a very sweet location and the building is fine, but there is a problem, which makes it impossible for us to open a restaurant there. There is already a restaurant.
  • Mansur: Just across the street. 100 feet. We measured.
  • Mahira: That is why the people moved back to Paris. They couldn't make it pay.
  • Mansur: Papa, the restaurant across the street has a Michelin star, hmm?
  • Papa: I know, I saw it. Twinkle, twinkle. So what?
  • Mansur: Papa, in case you didn't realize it, the French don't even eat Indian food. They have food of their own. It is famous all over the world. This is the end of the road.
  • Mansur: Papa, it is the best restaurant for 50 miles in any direction. The President of France dines there.
  • Papa: Is the President of France able to order murgh masala, with cashew nuts and cardamom? And ka saag aloo? Dal? Our secret family spices?
  • Mahira: No, but they are a Michelin star restaurant, Papa.
  • Mansur: They have frogs' legs, escargot, ratatouille.
  • Papa: ls the President able to order tandoori goat, cooked the way Hassan cooks? Sprinkled with roast spices?
  • Mansur: Papa, the restaurant doesn't serve those things, because the people here don't like to eat those things.
  • Papa: Because they don't know. They have never tried. Now they shall.
  • Mansur: Hassan, now we won't have enough time to cook the mutton properly. We should just take it off the menu, yeah?
  • Hassan: No. Rest it in a little red wine, and add crushed cardamom.
  • Mansur: Wine? We don't use wine.
  • Hassan: This is an emergency, Mansur. Wine will flavor the meat. When in Rome.
  • Mansur: Yeah, well, we're not in Rome, are we?
  • Hassan: Mansur, to survive here, we're going to need to adapt. We have to make use of what is close to us. Then we pray to God that it works.
  • Mansur: Smile. You've got good teeth. Just smile.
