ADYA’s 3rd Annual Curry Festival Celebrates Diversity in Indian Regional Cuisine

Tuesday, March 28th through Monday, April 10th 

ADYA Continues with its Annual Exploration and Education of India’s Curries
 

Anaheim, CA (March 2017) – ADYA presents its 3rd Annual Curry Festival from Tuesday, March 28th through Monday, April 10th at its Anaheim and Irvine locations. The event will feature two weeks of special curries highlighting India’s regional culinary styles and providing guests with a delicious, in-depth look at India’s culinary diversity. The curries will feature ingredients and styles of cooking unique to each region, from coconut and curry leaves, to poppy seeds and mustard.

“Curry, in simplest terms, is a saucy dish flavored with a mix of different spices – the composition of these spices varies greatly among the regional cuisines native to India,” commented Chef Shachi, whose diverse menu of fresh Indian flavors features a variety of traditional curries. “As curries become increasingly popular, diners are beginning to realize that curry isn’t just Chicken Tikka Masala. My goal is to provide my guests with a better understanding of the defining factors of the different types of curries one can find in Indian regional cooking.”

ADYA will journey through India as guests are invited to explore various regional curries at its two locations. The following specials will be offered during ADYA’s Curry Festival and can be ordered a la carte or as a Thali (plate):
