The Royal Palate is an extension of experiences, where we explore long lost royal recipes that hail from different parts of the country, in an attempt to keep them alive. Feverish virality helps take these stories to the right audiences and build conversations around strong content, one of the strongest reasons we associated with The Viral Fever.”
Discovering new foods and cuisines is one of the key delights for the Instagram generation and The Royal Palate intends to help millennials discover food while taking them on a royal smorgasbord of delicacies.

With this delightful new offering, we are hoping to reach newer audiences while engaging our existing viewer base.”
