What’s on in Mumbai: Pizzas, playlists and a Bakri Eid pop-up

 

Californication pizza at the Playlist Pizzeria

Our favourite pizza place in Mumbai at the moment is 1441, in Fort and Andheri. But, we’ve always wanted to make our own pizza, and one of these days, we are going to pay a visit to The Playlist Pizzeria. The pizzeria, on Baptista Road, in Bandra, — they also have a Versova outlet — offers customisation options for your pizza, ranging from the base — regular, wheat or glutenf-free — to a range of vegetarian and non-vegetarian ingredients, including spinach, bacon, and premium toppings that comprise of Blue cheese,  pepperoni and prawns. Oh, their name comes from their resolve to promote Indian artists, and the fact that you get to dine — for a bit — to the music of your choice.

Timings: 12 noon to midnight
