Culinary culture is on a sky-high in
India at the moment and if you add a dash of lifestyle into it, the plate serves
right. Here is a list of 9 food shows on the Indian television that are an
absolute delight to watch.
1. Highway On My Plate aka HOMP- Indian
cuisine grabs my special interest be it any state, the traditional food served
on highways and local delicacies as tasted and judged by Rocky and Mayur are a
treat to the eyes. Don’t forget to look out for their episode ending poetry on
food.
2.Eat Street- Like most Fox Traveler shows, this one is again awesome. The comic
James Cunningham is letting us know the food trucks popping up in North America. Food
Truck stories and their specialties, we are in for a treat.
3.Zee Khana Khazana- It is one of the
oldest cookery shows on the Indian television started in 1993. Humble Sanjeev
Kapoor always had amazing recipes to share which were a talk amongst the kitty
aunties of the society. Prosperity and popularity boomed in and now it’s a channel!
4.MasterChef India- Though a derived
version of Masterchef Australia, the perfect judges and a whole variety of new
dishes that they explore amidst the competition demands a total salute.
5.Gourmet Central- This show by host
and chef Vicky Ratnani made gourmet food look so easy and within reach of
people sitting at home.
6.Food Safari- For those of you
who have a knack for history and origin of food cuisines across the world, this
show will serve you right. Maeve O’Meara is an inquisitive host who has
explored almost all from Jewish food to Syrian, from Italian food to Indian.
The Indian food safari included Palak Paneer and delectable coconut barfi.
7.Sugar Stars- With and IMDb
rating of 8.2, the friends-turned-business partners, Elle, Casper and Yoganda
have sure catched some eyes by designing eye-popping sweet tables and telling
tales of what it takes to fulfill such big orders with a classic finish.
8.Zayka India Ka- again a humble
host Vinod Dua taking his small steps to the by lanes and streets of our
country sampling the delicacies and the wide spread street food it offers.

David Rocco’s Dolce India- Apart
from being a renowned actor and producer, David is an Italian chef too. Or
maybe, the other way round we can say. What grabbed my attention the most was
his praise of Indian cooking and accepting that more techniques are involved
here as compared to Italian cooking. It was a sight to watch him cook on the
top of a Rajasthan fort along with a cook of the Maharajas.
