What: Yellow Tree Café, Ambedkar Road, next to Sparkle, Bandra (W).
Why: Because it’s shiny, happy and opening this weekend! We just hope that the soups, salads and cocktails on the menu are as refreshing as the interiors, complete with white-washed walls and sea-green windows. Look out for the bpb review on Monday.
When: You want a picture perfect meal. Say “trees”!

What: Individual and group Mixed Martial Arts classes by Full Contact Entertainment, call Prashant on 9821133980, starts at Rs 3,000 a month.
Why: The man who gave Mumbai its first fight night now wants to tackle you. Learn mixed martial arts moves from Prashant and his team, who formerly saved their expertise exclusively for national fighters.
When:  You need to strengthen your contacts.

What: Make Your Own Bath Salts, The Nature’s Co, Palladium, Phoenix Mills Compound, 2nd floor, Lower Parel, call 32211771, Rs 175 a test tube.
Why: Because playing scientist with the pretty, subtly scented bath salts at this new beauty store – you get to pick favorites and bottle them into test tubes – is almost as fun as actually using them. We particularly love the tangerine and cinnamon fragrances.
When: You want to be worthy of a You-Reek-Ah! Go before October 19, and get a complimentary facial and health drink.
