Mumbai: Get ready for an Aussie adventure this September, as India’s favourite foodie duo Rocky Singh & Mayur Sharma take you on a trip Down Under with their latest show ‘Rocky & Mayur’s Offbeat Australia’, which will air on Living Foodz, starting September 22.

Known for their quirky, tongue-in-cheek humour, Rocky & Mayur’s ‘bromance’ has become legendary. The globetrotting pair set out to Australia for some much-needed R&R. They will be seen travelling across the Northern Territory, South Australia, New South Wales, Queensland and Western Australia on the show. This is a very different show for us, since it gives the viewers a peek in to our lives while we are on a vacation! We had an exciting Aussie experience right from taking-on new adventures, to enjoying the amazing cuisine and breathtaking locales. During our vacation, we have also learnt ‘how to be an Aussie’ with the endearing and friendly locals of the country!  We look forward to the launch of the show and sharing our journey with the viewers”, said Rocky and Mayur. Australia offers the perfect backdrop for adventure sports and the duo will be seen quad biking around Kings Canyon, sandboarding in South Australia’s Little Sahara, zip lining at Otway Fly Treetop Adventures in Victoria, enjoying a Hot Air Balloon ride in Alice Springs and skydiving at Sunshine Coast.

Rocky & Mayur picked up some quirky lingo from the locals and even got some interesting tips on 'How to be an Aussie'! The duo also engaged in enriching conversations with the locals and learnt that they were deeply passionate about their fresh produce.

“Over the past years, Living Foodz has redefined the way people learn about food, travel and culture through our shows. We constantly endeavour to offer differentiated content in innovative formats and our latest offering, ‘Rocky & Mayur’s Offbeat Australia’ is a prime example of this. The show offers an unconventional take on Australia and is ideal for Indian travelers, who are constantly scouring for unique experiences. It’s a unique initiative in the overall sector of food, travel and lifestyle. What makes it even more unique is the camaraderie between Rocky and Mayur. Their banter and synergy truly brings their experiences to life and they get along like a house on fire!” said Amit Nair, Business Head, Living Foodz.

Home to a myriad cultures, Australia offers a diverse culinary experience. Rocky & Mayur enjoyed a multicultural culinary experience and discovered some great food & wine destinations such as Lune Croissanterie in Melbourne, The Jack Rabbit Vineyard in Victoria and a quaint wine lounge in South Australia, built in an old church that offered some great pizza and wine. The duo enjoyed a view of the ‘lovely land of Oz’ from the sky, over the land and in the ocean while gorging on scrumptious food and wine throughout their journey.

Mr. Nishant Kashikar, Country Manager, India & Gulf, Tourism Australia said, “We are extremely delighted to be associated with Rocky & Mayur’s Offbeat Australia. The duo are incredibly popular and have an instant connect with the Indian audience for their camaraderie and banter. The series takes the audiences through scenic road trips, spectacular nature, adventure, outback, and showcases great food & wine experiences of Australia. Given their immense popularity, we are highly confident that this rocking pair will drive awareness amongst our target audiences, and encourage them to plan their next trip to Australia.”
