You may remember Chef Vittal Shetty from his days as corporate executive chef for Amber India restaurants. Now, he has his own Bay Area catering company, Jalsa Catering & Events.

Come take a taste of his sophisticated Indian fare when he joins me for a cooking demo at Macy’s Valley Fair in Santa Clara, 2 p.m. Dec. 11.

Shetty’s cuisine is all about combining seasonal, local ingredients with bold, deep flavors to create dishes that shine, no matter what the occasion.

The free cooking demo takes place in the culinary kitchen on the main floor of the Men’s & Home store.
