THIS Ahmedabad spot serving Bangalore-style dosas & idlis should be on your wish list! Here’s why

For those who enjoy wholesome South Indian cuisine, Kanchiipuram in Ahmedabad is worth a visit. Opened last year, this place has already gained a steady following for its authentic Bangalore-style dosas, vadas, uttapam, and rice dishes, consistent quality, and hygiene standards.

Kanchiipuram's menu covers a range of South Indian staples, with dosa options like Masala Dosa, Podi Masala, Garlic Masala, and Rava Onion Plain. If you prefer idlis, the Thatte Idli and Podi Idli are popular choices, served with freshly made chutneys and flavourful sambhar.

The Sambhar Vada is another highlight, offering a satisfying mix of crispy texture and soaked-in spices. It also serves homely dishes like Curd Rice, Tomato Rice, and Lemon Rice.

Beyond the classics, Kanchiipuram also focuses on regional specialties that bring a taste of Karnataka to Ahmedabad. The use of podi (spiced lentil powder) in idlis and dosas adds a unique flavour, while the ghee-laced Thatte Idli stands out for its soft, fluffy texture. The filter coffee, served in traditional steel tumblers, makes for the perfect way to round off a meal.

The space itself is simple and functional, keeping the focus on the food. Quick service ensures you don’t have to wait long, even during peak hours. While it may not be a fine-dining experience, this eatery's authenticity and consistency make it a reliable option for South Indian food lovers.

So, the next time you feel like indulging in some Bengaluru-style dosas or idlis, do head out to Kanchiipuram!
