Mumbai: Lifestyle channel Zee Zest is all set to bring the second season of 'India’s 50 Best Dishes' hosted by chef Ajay Chopra. The show will be aired every Monday and Tuesday at 2 pm from 26 July.

Unveiling the #DeshKaTastiestMenu, the show will focus on mouth-watering dishes across over 20 exciting categories like monsoon ka swaad, immunity boosters, work from home rasoi, nukkad ka khaana to bachchon ki farmaaish, and more. Additionally, this new season will have viewers virtually supporting chef Ajay by voting for their top choices of dishes through a unique gamification portal on the Zee Zest website. Votes will then be tallied to decide winners of the contest as they pick their favorites from across the country.

To help chef Chopra curate the best dishes, there are three groups, which map the food atlas of India—Kitchen Gurus, Masala Mantris and Desi Deewane and culinary professionals like Kunal Kapur, Tejasvi Chandela, Sabyasachi Gorai, Pankaj Bhadouria, Antoine Lewis, Jasleen Marwah, and more will bring in their learnings and expertise to these segments.

“I am elated to kick off the new season of India’s 50 Best Dishes after the resoundingly appreciative response from our audience," chef Chopra said. "In a country where we find multiple cuisines and countless dishes in each state, I am looking forward to reviving the conversation on what are the most loved ones. In a bid to distinguish India’s consistently evolving culinary landscape with incomparable regional impressions, we are excited to continue our search to curate a unique set of 50 that will make for this season’s desh ka tastiest menu."
