Some things go together and so does food and streaming videos. So, making the most out of this consumer behaviour, starting Monday, September 16, 2019, Zomato will launch 18 original shows over the course of the next three months.
Available in an all-new ‘Videos’ tab in the Zomato app, videos will be categorised by genre letting users watch 3-15 minute videos across shows, recipes and sneak peek restaurant stories. The Zomato video experience will launch with 2000+ videos that include Zomato originals, which will be available to stream in India, while sneak peek and recipe videos can be accessed anywhere in the world.
All Zomato Original shows are around food, but with a twist. Comedy, reality, fiction, advice, celebrity interviews will explore food in unique, engaging and entertaining videos.
