Jaya at The Setai Miami Beach is taking guests on a culinary voyage across India with its new weekly series, Flavors of India. Each month, the restaurant will spotlight a different regional Indian cuisine, allowing diners to explore the country’s vast culinary landscape without leaving Miami.

For March, the focus is on South India, a region known for its bold spices, aromatic curries, and coastal influences. Executive Chef Vijay Veena has meticulously curated a menu that features:

• Andhra-Style Spicy Chicken Curry – A fiery dish infused with South India’s signature bold spices.

• Chettinad Fish Fry – Marinated and pan-fried to crispy perfection, a specialty of Tamil Nadu.

• Hyderabadi Vegetable Biryani – Fragrant, spiced basmati rice layered with seasonal vegetables.

• Kerala Parotta with Egg Roast – A flaky, layered flatbread served with slow-cooked eggs in a spiced tomato masala.

• Payasam (South Indian Kheer) – A sweet, creamy rice pudding infused with cardamom and saffron.

With its intimate, spice-laden ambiance and an ever-evolving menu, Flavors of India is an experience worth savoring.
