The Royal Palate Review

In the opening episode, Kunal Kapoor describes the show as the one capturing "royal legacy of Hindustan," and he delivers as great of a show as precise his statement. Kunal is one of the best narrators TVF could have cast to host a culture based food show, all credit to his amicable and candid approach when conversing with the guides, experts and local restaurateurs. He possesses plenty knowledge of his own as well, that he doesn't hesitate sharing.

The production team deserves credit for picking out charming locations. The cherry on top is the director's ability to capture great angles and edit in brilliant segues, almost making the viewer want to drop everything and spring right to the shot's location.

Show also dives deep into the each dish's history. While flaws are hard to find, the only improvement could be a more engaging presentation of information, like prompting 'fun facts' and tips at the bottom of the screen. Nevertheless, I actually ended up learning a lot. The Royal Palate is a highly recommended watch.
