Sunday's Bombay Bazaar Raising Funds for Just Call Us Volunteers!

Bring a little Bollywood into your life on Sunday by attending Bombay Bazaar! The event, being held this Sunday starting at 5 p.m. at SILO in Makers Quarter, will transport guests to a market somewhere in India where dozens of San Diego’s finest chefs will be serving up Indian fusion street food and mixologists will be shaking up Indian flavored cocktails. Our guests will enjoy Bollywood dancers, sitars, henna artists, and more. There will also be updates on the organization and the critical work JCUV is doing in the San Diego community to feed the homeless.

Sam "the Cooking Guy" Zien and Troy Johnson of San Diego Magazine will be the event's co-masters of ceremonies. And, here are just some of the participating chefs and restaurants--as well as their dishes:

Just Call Us Volunteers is a 501c3 founded by my friend and chef Julie Darling.

With her leadership JCUV has been preparing and serving meals to the underserved of San Diego since 2006. They've steadily grown both their efforts and volunteer base. The organization is completely volunteer based; there are no full-time associates.

JCUV provides more than 20,000 meals to the homeless in downtown San Diego at the Veterans’ Shelter, the Winter Shelter, Rachel’s Women’s Center, The Monarch School for Homeless Children and the Metro Hotel as well as coordinating and serving lunch at The Housing Commissions Homeless Connect at Golden Hall. Additionally, this past year they again had the honor of serving the final meal of Veterans’ Village of San Diego’s annual “Stand Down” event to more than 1,400 homeless veterans.

All-inclusive tickets for the event are $75. For $100, you can get early admission to the Chefs Toast Preview Reception for conversation and champagne with the chefs and a special dish, as well as all-inclusive food and beverage throughout the evening. Tickets can be purchased here.
