Author of Indian Cookbooks Is Opening a Pizza Restaurant in Eden Prairie | Eater Twin Cities

"Opening soon at 8451 Joiner Way in Eden Prairie, this restaurant from Minneapolis-based, six-time cookbook author Raghavan Iyer—by way of Mumbai—aims to showcase “the global nature of pizza,” with pies cooked in a tandoor oven and crusts brushed with clarified butter imported from India made from water buffalo milk. Expect a handful of affordable pizzas topped with items such as shrimp roasted in lentils and chicken marinated in Greek yogurt, along with a few salad and appetizer options; guests can also make their own pizzas. Iyer says there won’t be desserts—"I figure that it’s all about pizza"—and a portion of proceeds will be donated to charity." - Cinnamon Janzer
