Bangalore Pub Culture Comes To Pune.
Toit, one of the top pubs of Bengaluru opened their doors in Pune’s Kalyani Nagar about a year back. It is located just after Bishop’s School on East Avenue near the Ramwadi junction on Nagar Road. It has a large enclosed parking area with valets to assist.
We went on a Saturday afternoon and were surprised that we got a table of our choice quite easily. Normally crowded on the weekends, they don’t accept bookings, and you may have to wait a while to get a table. The open air restaurant is quite spacious and has very nice décor, paintings and wall hangings which perk up one’s mood and appetite. They have an enclosed dining hall as well.
The staff and service were helpful, friendly and courteous. There was a separate menu for Food and Drinks. Their draught beers are their speciality. Toit’s mission is to make the world a happier and ‘boozier’ place, and they brew their own draught beers with only natural ingredients; imported malts, the hippest of hops, and the most eukaryotic of yeast. One can ask for a sampler of their six main varieties of beer which costs ₹300.
From their beers we ordered their Tintin Toit and Toit Weiss, and Stray Apple Cider and Fresh Lime Soda for the ladies. Both the beers had their unique flavours which were excellent, and the cider was tart and fruity. We had Onion Rings with a sweet and spicy dip, and a plate of ‘Dip-it-Ah’ as starters. The hummus of the Dip-it-Ah was shaped like an ash-tray with olive oil in the centre and the celery stick pieces and carrots cut to look like cigarettes. So we enjoyed some ‘smokes’ with our drinks and onion rings!
For the mains we had a ‘Pototo and Green Mango Curry’ with Appams. The curry was a spicy coconut based tangy gravy which went very well with the appams. We also tried their vegetarian ‘Farmers Market Salad’ which had some caramelised walnuts to enhance the taste.
We quite enjoyed our lunch outing and would like to visit again and try out the non-vegetarian preparations as well.
