In the premiere episode of Family Food, we head to Swagath Gourmet, a South Indian restaurant run by the Iyengar family in Edison, New Jersey. We meet brothers Sesha and Murali as well as Murali's wife Padma, who all share a passion for bringing authentic South Indian food to the table. The lentil- and rice-based vegetarian dishes that have made Swagath a local favorite are not only delicious, but also extremely healthy. After spending time with the Iyengars in their restaurant and their tight-knit community of Edison, we see it's no coincidence that the word "swagath" means "welcome" in their native tongue. The minute you walk into Swagath, you feel like a part of the family.WATCH NEXT: Subscribe to Munchies here: http://bit.ly/Subscribe-to-MUNCHIESCheck out http://munchies.tv for more!Follow Munchies here:Facebook: http://facebook.com/munchiesTwitter: http://twitter.com/munchiesTumblr: http://munchies.tumblr.comInstagram: http://instagram.com/munchiesvicePinterest: https://www.pinterest.com/munchiesFoursquare: https://foursquare.com/munchiesMore videos from the VICE network: https://www.fb.com/vicevideo
