Ghee Masala Dosa
Served with sambar and three chutneys · ₹179

Folded over slow-cooked potato masala, finished with real ghee.

Wide Karnataka-style idli tossed in gunpowder podi and hot ghee.

Six golden batter dumplings, crisp outside and steamy within.

Served open-faced on a palm leaf so every inch stays crisp.

Akiya Cafe began with a simple frustration: it is hard to find a dosa in the NCR that tastes the way it does back home. Not a thin, dry disc served in a hurry — but a proper ghee dosa, poured on a well-seasoned griddle, crisp at the rim and soft where it folds.
So we kept it small and stubborn. Batter is ground and left to ferment overnight, never rushed. Podi is roasted and pounded in-house. Coffee is a chicory blend, brewed into a decoction and pulled between tumbler and davara until it foams.
Two kitchens now — one in Gaur City 2, one in Sector 75 — cooking the same short menu, the same way, from eleven in the morning until eleven at night.
Rice and urad dal, soaked and ground on site, fermented overnight. That sourness cannot be shortcut.
Every dosa on the card is a ghee dosa. It is what makes the edge shatter instead of bend.
Our gunpowder podi is roasted and ground in the kitchen, not bought in bags.
Decoction brewed the slow way and served in a steel tumbler and davara, as it should be.
Rice and urad dal soak for hours, then go through the wet grinder until the batter is smooth and aerated.
The batter rests overnight. This is where the sourness and the lift come from — there is no substitute for time.
A ladle, a spiral, a ring of ghee. The griddle is seasoned and never scrubbed down to bare metal.
Straight from the tawa to the plate with sambar and three chutneys. A dosa does not wait.
A chicory blend, dripped through the filter overnight and cut with boiled milk. Poured back and forth until it foams — that is the only way it gets that head.
