Celebrity Chef Sanjay Patel Spices Up Indian Cuisine with 20+ Vegan, Gluten-Free and Non-Dairy Entrées PLUS entertainment, at his Sherman Oaks, California Restaurant
Chef Sanjay launches new menu with health-conscious specialties, along with cooking classes and entertainment.
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA—Celebrity Chef Sanjay Patel is spicing things up at his Sherman Oaks Bollywood Bites restaurant with a new vegan-friendly menu, a new entertainment line-up, cooking classes and the exclusive unveiling of Chef Sanjay’s “Secret MJ Menu” on Michael Jackson’s birthday, August 29th located at 13355 Ventura Blvd, (East of Dixie Canyon Ave). Event details can be found at THEBollywoodBites.com.
Chef Sanjay Patel, dubbed “Hollywood’s Prince of the Palate,” is excited about the upcoming events and his new entrées , in particular. “I have always offered vegan, non-dairy and gluten-free dishes, but upon request. Now, having perfected these entrees, we will highlight them on our menu. We have over 20 vegan options—including Vegan Tikka Masala and a gluten-free Kids Meal. Which is very unique for an Indian restaurant,” states Chef Sanjay.
Based in one of the most health-conscious cities in the world, Chef Sanjay is adapting his menu to meet the needs and preferences of his clients and his community. “Best of all, we don’t have to sacrifice flavor or texture to create great vegan dishes. Some guests who are not vegan simply enjoy the taste of our vegan dishes and beverages—and others cannot tell the difference,” Chef Sanjay says with a smile.
Not only has Chef Sanjay created over 20 great-tasting vegan entrees, he has also concocted a magnificent vegan Mango Lassi (a classic Indian beverage traditionally made with yogurt). “Everyone loves our dairy-free Mango Lassi. It tastes great and its lactose-free,” Chef Sanjay says.
With the new menu, all of Bollywood Bites’ traditional vegetarian Indian dishes can be prepared as vegan— as well as the coconut curry and the Indo-Chinese dish, “Manchurian” (pan fried cauliflower with a spicy “orange” sauce).
