We found a restaurant that puts a new twist on Indian cooking.

Makhani Brings New Twist to Traditional Indian Cuisine

Makhani in the heart of Old City is a new BYO owned by Shafi Gaffar, who grew up working in restaurants his family-owned in the area over the years -- Desi Village Restaurant, Laxmi's Indian Grille, and Khajuraho in Ardmore. He was a partner in the Tandoor restaurant group and is now branching out to create a new brand.

Joining him is Executive Chef Sanjoy Banik, who worked in all of Shafi's parents' restaurant, and was previously the go-to chef for Asian dignitaries. He focuses on North Indian dishes that are made fresh-to-order and all from scratch. Makhani is open for lunch and dinner, and delivery is available as well.

If it's brunch you're craving there's a new spot called Winkle.

Winkel is the Gayborhood's new hot spot for brunch

If you're looking for a new spot for brunch, Winkel is now open in the Gayborhood. It's from the mind of chef Joncarl Lachman, who created Noord, and is now using a similar inspiration for breakfast and lunch. He's created a menu inspired by his Dutch and Northern European roots.

We go shopping at a new artist's boutique.

New Shop Trunc Is All About Supporting Local Artisans

Co-Owners Dorothea Gamble and Dagmar Mitchell -- partners in life and business -- just opened lifestyle goods store Trunc in Northern Liberties.

They "seek the unique", but every item also has to meet three requirements in order to be shown:

1. It has to be handmade by a local artist.

2. It has to tell a story.

3. The artist has to host an event at Trunc so they can engage with the community!
