Chef Kaumudi Marathé explores 13 states in India with 13 regional dishes starting April 30th at The Un-Curry Tablepop-up restaurant in LA. The announcement reads: "Criss cross the country from Maharashtra and Goa to Uttar Pradesh and Nagaland to experience the culinary riot of cultures, religions and flavors that is India!"

We've been watching global trends and the influence and inspiration from India since Slumdog Millionaire tipped the cultural scale and Indian beauty entrepreneur, Shahnaz Husain, was featured in the Wall Street Journal.

This pop-up marks another interesting twist on how and when trends evolve into mainstream reality.
