“Pull up a chair. Take a taste. Come join us. Life is so endlessly delicious.” ― Ruth Reichl

Food is something that brings people together. It can bring a smile on someone’s face, make someone forget about today’s sorrow just to savour the moment or create an aura of merriment and joy. Now, this can happen while you are spending a few hours in the kitchen preparing dishes for your loved ones or watching others narrate about their love affair with food.

One of the most obvious ways to stay entertained during the COVID-19 lockdown has been binge-watching moves and show on Netflix.
