"This spot pulls from the make-your-own-rules playbook by remixing western Indian food with new ingredients—just look to the crispy pani puri with mint-infused tamarind water that contains actual gin. A meal at this small-plate dining spot is a great way to eat your way through the regions of Gujarat: a vegetarian mix of fire-roasted eggplant that taste like it was forged in the flames of Mount Doom, housemade maska paneer, and the other dishes inspired by the chef’s family." - lani conway
