Ponzu Baked Swai Fish
In this Japanese-inspired dish, light and flaky swai—a mild white fish similar to tilapia—is baked to perfection and served with roasted shiitake mushrooms and stir-fried bok choy. A citrusy ponzu sauce brings this whole dish together in sweet and savory harmony. Enjoy another healthy yet satisfying offering from Chef Akhtar.

Jamdown Jerk Chicken Thighs
This dish starts with Chef Aarthi’s addictive Jerk spice marinade. Then, the marinated chicken thighs are grilled over an open fire then served with a side roasted plantains and kidney bean rice. Think: salty, sweet, and totally transportive—like a tasty trip to the Caribbean in every bite.
