5 THINGS TO LOOK FORWARD TO
NUTTY SIDE
A mouth freshner flavoured with betel leaves is rather common but have you had one made with neem leaves? This and more such surprises make up the special treats at Neutrixx. This recently launched dry fruit store by Radhika Talwar, director at automotive enterprise Talwar Group, is where you can pick everything from dried kiwis to macadamia nuts, almonds in several varieties and interesting churans from Kolkata, besides a whole lot more. The best part is that these are available at affordable prices with the corporate packages starting as low as Rs 300. “The idea was to make dry fruits a daily heath food rather than just a luxury gifting option,” says Talwar, who is all set to open a second outlet soon.
