New-age Indian food
A Las Vegas chef wants to teach you all about Indian cuisine, one dish at a time. Tarun Kapoor (above), the executive chef at Urban Turban, will show you how to make his classic meals at home — without fear of the cuisine’s superspicy rep. Kapoor teaches classes every other week at his restaurant, which describes its food as “newage Indian cuisine.” During twohour classes, students watch the chef prepare a three-course meal, including dishes such as butter chicken royale and cheese in smoked sauce, chicken tikka with mint yogurt sauce. Students get to taste the prepared courses. They also receive recipes and samples of some of the spices. The class costs $40 and begins at 5:30 p.m. Info: (702) 826-3217, www.urbanturban usa.com
