Highway on My Plate (HOMP) was a weekly travel and food show that aired on NDTV Good Times between 2007 and 2013, and is now available on Amazon Prime Video or repeated on channels.
It was anchored by food enthusiasts and childhood friends Rocky Singh and Mayur Sharma, who have together traveled more than 1,20,000 kilometres across the length and breadth of India over the course of seven years in search of memorable eating experiences.
Over the years the show has garnered quite a fan following due to the natural chemistry and camaraderie between the two hosts as well as their 'will-eat-anything' attitude and genuine love for different sorts of food and their over-the-top and quirky sense of humour.
Thus we get to check out Punjab's legendary Kesar Da Dhaba famous for its parathas and kaali dal, the kachoris (called kachoras) from chawani Lal Halwai in Rajasthan, the unique pootharekulu in Vijayawada or the kadam pickle served at Chaurasiya Dhaba, Khundra or the huge variety of chaat at Narayan Chaat Bhandar, Jhansi in Uttar Pradesh.

The duo has also hosted two other shows on the channel NDTV Good Times, India's Most Haunted[10] and Jai Hind with Rocky and Mayur.
