Artfully done

Take your pick, or should we say ‘pic’, from the works of eight artistes from across the country at an exhibition being held at Nehru Centre Art Gallery in Worli.

Fungi fervour

If you like truffles, this food festival is for you. A cafe is dishing out food based on the fungal delicacy, with the menu featuring items like deluxe truffle finger sandwiches lined with black truffle chive mousse, pickled artichoke, Emmental cheese and truffle aioli, and truffle mushroom pizza. The pièce de résistance, though, is truffle butter grilled lobsters baked with truffle cheese sauce.
