It's been an exciting first year for ADYA, and this week Chef Shachi is celebrating its anniversary with two specials featuring ADYA’s most popular items from the tandoor! Now through Saturday, June 20, enjoy specially priced chicken tikka naan sandwich and a grilled paneer naan sandwich.
You can also learn from the best as Chef Sachi teaches a cooking class on Saturday, June 20 at 11 a.m. The hands-on class will be outside on the private boxcar patio, with an interactive culinary demo showcasing an array of grilled Indian specialties prepared with unique blends of traditional spices.

NEXT National SUP Day

NEXT Swimwear – an active-inspired women’s collection that’s all about swim, fitness, and fashion and the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation are joining forces to present the 4th annual NEXT National SUP Day at Newport Aquatic Center in Newport Beach on Saturday, June 20 from 9 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.
The event celebrates stand up paddle boarding and raises awareness of Cystic Fibrosis (CF) and their Pipeline to a Cure campaign.
It’s a fun, active day for the entire family, with food, giveaways and education and outreach booths. The list of sponsors includes: Caliwater Cactus Water, Capstone Partners, Chicago Paddle Co., Corporate Real Estate Services, CHOC Children’s Hospital, Global Surf Industries, Hula Girls Shave Ice, LAcarGUY, Mission Bay Aquatic Center, Newport Aquatic Center, Pipeline to a Cure, Pure Bar, SAMBAZON, SUP Connect, SUP Stand Up Paddles, SwimSpot, and Trader Joe’s.
CF is a genetic disease with chronic symptoms that include a buildup of mucus and congestion in the respiratory and digestive systems which can cause severe infections, breathing difficulties and malnutrition.
CF patients who surf and paddle board can experience a decrease in severity of symptoms. Saltwater mist surfers inhale can help lubricate their lungs and ease chronic congestion. National SUP Day was created to help spread new research findings, raise awareness, and plan a fun event for of people of all ages, skill and fitness levels.
