I think the real test of a food show is how meticulously a viewer plans a meal around it.<\/p>\n The joy of coordinating super slow motion shots of some gelatinous cut of meat stewing away to glory in an unpronounceable country with my vanilla-bland Swiggy order has been one of my personal highlights of the pandemic.<\/p>\n Three foreign food shows have passed this test for me: Anthony Bourdain\u2019s ‘Parts Unknown,’ a political show compellingly disguised as a food show, David Gelb\u2019s rebranding of chefs as auteurs through five seasons of ‘Chef\u2019s Table’ and lastly, BuzzFeed\u2019s ‘Worth It,’ a crash course of understanding the internet\u2019s relationship with price point, banter, and food.<\/p>\n That is before Netflix acquired the first season of EPIC Channel\u2019s ‘Raja Rasoi aur Anya Kahaniyan.’<\/p>\n Written by Raghav Khanna and directed by Akshay Pillai, the show traces the roots of some of India\u2019s most iconic dishes from the kingdoms they developed from. I binged through 11 episodes in a day straight, marveling at the depth of their research as well as how poetically the show had been written.<\/p>\n In this series #FoodForFilm, we pick food films\/shows that make our mouths water and our souls richer.<\/p>\n In this part, Sumedh Natu (@sumedhnatu) talks about Raja Rasoi aur Anya Kahaniyan and how it breathes life into all the 11 regions it covers.<\/p>\n Check the full story in the link in bio.<\/p>\n #FoodShows #FoodDocumentary #FoodLovers #IndianFood #FoodSeries #IndianFoodStories #IndianCuisines #IndianDishes #NetflixSeries<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I think the real test of a food show is how meticulously a viewer plans … Read More<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":17018,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[1],"tags":[17365,17363,8950,17366,17364,8871,8282,8543,17367,17368],"yoast_head":"\n
