"Pippal is the latest to join Bay Street’s selection of restaurants, which saw an overhaul this year and plenty of new additions to the outdoor mall. Hailing from the team behind San Francisco’s Rooh, the new Pippal is meant to be a place where diners can discover more of India’s food scene. The menu will rotate seasonally, but highlights include Dungeness crab masala and litti chokha, a ball of lentils slow-cooked in a tandoor and served with eggplant bharta. Don’t ignore the refreshing cocktail menu, which features info on monuments throughout India, of which many of the drinks are named after." - Dianne de Guzman
