The U.S. has the cheeseburger, Vietnam has the banh mi, Mexico has the torta, and India has the vada pao, a sandwich beloved by millions.

美國有芝士漢堡，越南有 banh mi，墨西哥有 torta，印度有 vada pao，這是一種深受數百萬人喜愛的三明治。

So beloved, in fact, McDonald's tried to emulate it with their McAlootiki burger, however, unsuccessful.

事實上，麥當勞曾試圖模仿它的麥卡洛提基漢堡，但沒有成功。

So, let me introduce you to the vada pao.

那麼，讓我向你們介紹一下 Vada Pao。

The best way to describe it, it is deep-fried mashed potato.

最貼切的形容就是油炸土豆泥。

It is spiced, but not too spicy, and always served hot.

它有香料，但不會太辣，而且總是熱食。

It should slightly deflate when you poke it.

There is some debate around how much there should be, but one thing is for certain, it needs to be there.

關於應該有多少，還存在一些爭論，但有一點是肯定的，那就是必須有。

So, with that in mind, we are going to three places with three different takes on the sandwich, starting with the inventor's son.

有鑑於此，我們將從發明者的兒子開始，去三個地方，用三種不同的方式品嚐三明治。

My name is Narendra Ashok Vaidya, and I sell vada pao at Dadar in Mumbai.

我叫納倫德拉-阿肖克-瓦伊迪亞，在孟買的達達爾（Dadar）賣瓦達餅。

My father had started this vada pao in 1966.

我父親於 1966 年開始製作這種 Vada Pao。

The vada pao was already existing, but I think he was the first person to actually put it inside the pao and just give a punch to it.

雖然 Vada Pao 早已存在，但我認為他是第一個真正把它放進 Pao 裡並給它一拳的人。

When the word Bombay comes, it is definitely linked to vada pao.

說到孟買，肯定會與 vada pao 聯繫在一起。

Two vada paos is like as good as one dinner, and one is like your breakfast.

兩個 vada paos 就相當於一頓晚餐，而一個就相當於你的早餐。

Next, we're gonna call this the popular one.

接下來，我們要把它叫做 "流行"。

We are the largest vada pao chain in Mumbai City.

我們是孟買市最大的 Vada Pao 連鎖店。

Jumbo King is known as the company which branded the vada pao.

眾所周知，Jumbo King 公司是 Vada Pao 的品牌公司。

The Schezwan Jumbo King, Nachos Jumbo King, Paneer Jumbo King, there's a Double Decker Jumbo King.

Schezwan Jumbo King、Nachos Jumbo King、Paneer Jumbo King，還有一個 Double Decker Jumbo King。

It's different from the street kind because we are way more hygienic and it's the innovation that people really love.

它不同於街頭小吃，因為我們更講究衛生，而創新才是人們真正喜歡的。

It is a sin to tamper with the original dish, but we have committed that sin way too many times.

篡改原菜是一種罪過，但我們已經犯了太多次這種罪過。

So we now have eight different types of Jumbo Kings.

是以，我們現在有八種不同類型的珍寶王。

This whole story boils down to one thing.

No matter which way you serve it or where you buy it, you should be eating it because it is amazing.

無論你以何種方式食用或在哪裡購買，你都應該吃它，因為它非常美味。
