Indian Accent – Delhi, India (April 2025)

We had this 6-course chef's tasting menu at Indian Accent in Delhi, India on 21 April 2025.

The overall theme is authentic Indian flavours and ingredients.

Being an Indian who has not yet travelled outside India, someone who's foodie, this experience really amazed me.

If anyone would like to try Indian flavours and cuisine in a fine dine setting, this would be the best place.

Note:

1. We tried everything vegetarian, without any eggs or meat, except my main course (#9) because I specifically ordered that particular dish.

2. You may see pictures of 3 items at a time, because we were 3 people dining 🙂

In pictures:

1. Tandoori Cheese Naan – Indian version of pull apart cheese garlic bread, without the gralic.

2. Chaat Papdi – Stuffed with dhokla, curd, and chutneys.

3. Aloo tikki chaat – Layered fried potato with chana dal and chutneys on top.

4. Kothimbir Vadi – Fried coriander and besan snack. Local dish from Maharashtra state in India.

5. Jackfruit dish – Had it for the first time, and my mind was blown.

6. Yam Galauti Kebab – Topped with Urad dal noodles. Very traditional meal with a bit eccentric ingredients.

7. Banarasi Aloo Papad – This was cooked so well, super crispy from outside and so soft from inside. Filled with tangy chutney. This flavour surprised me the most.

8. Anardana Sorbet – Pallet cleanser with childhood nostalgia.

9. Chicken Seekh kebab (only meat dish) – With rice and curry. It will so filling.

10. Overall main-course pic with all dishes we got. They served bhoojia raita and mushroom and pumpkin naan for sides.

11. Palak Paneer – 100-layers of cottage cheese with a bed of spinach. You must come here to try this dish alone.

12. Yam dish – gold foiled with butter curry.

13. Butter chicken naan – Indian version of stuffed gralic bread with chicken. This is also a speciality of this place.

14. Coconut cream and chocolate – This was our Pre-desert. So tiny, cute, and delicious.

    1. Malpua with orange syrup, topped with some alcohol and nuts. Sweet and tangy. This was inspired from some french dessert, not sure what. This was the "indian-ingredients but foreign-inspiration" dish.
