Where do the millennials and GenZ converge? It has always been the Khar back lane that houses Raasta, Khar Social and Sweeney. Around that corner, now, Rost, a French Toast and coffee bar cropped this week. Designed to converge the two generations, with its gradient of orange-pink vibe, and textured walls, it’s an old school ’90s café-meets-GenZ indulgent 30-seater spot. Pre and post-game plan, and a brunch tucked in, it’s an easy pit stop for carbs. That it has good coffee, is our first green flag, alongside the Matcha served with a Pistachio Paste (R445) that makes the the vegetal matcha sessionable.

Dished out by first-time hospitality boys Param Arora and Abhishek Chaurasia, the name is inspired by the golden roast of the brioche. Chef Karishma Sakhrani, now Dubai-based with restaurateur husband Sameer Uttamchandani, has managed to create an entire menu around the French toast brioche bread as a sweet and savoury canvas.
