Sri Aachi Aappakadai, Chander Road

Sri Aachi Aappakadai, Chander Road

I knew that Sri Aachi Aappakadai Pte Ltd has an other outlet and from what I could Google, there appeared to be more to the menu than what's available at the stall in Tekka Food Centre. So we came to Sri Aachi Aappakadai (45 Chander Road, tel : +65 8698 1317) for breakfast in hopes of getting some of those stuff that's not at Tekka Food Centre. Menu that can be found online and those at the shop (the pictures up on the walls are the menu) differs. Kinda.

The shop's right next door to Swaadhisht.  

Sri Aachi Aappakadai, podi idli

There's podi idly. These were pre made and served out of a tupperware on order. Not bad tasting and also not the podi-est we've had but no complains here. Noticed that these had cumin. Love the sour in the rice cakes.

Sri Aachi Aappakadai, pongal

Pongal was a pretty big serving and not as flavourful as I was hoping for. Couldn't taste ghee in this. This rendition in terms of flavour was more akin to the one from M.M.H Tiffin Centre than say those from A2B Veg Restaurant or Komala Vilas.

Sri Aachi Aappakadai, cheese appam

Standards of their appam also differs compared to their stall at Tekka Food Centre. This one appeared more rustic and one couldn't help but also feel that food from latter location was handled with more finesse. I'm also not sure what happened with this cheese appam I got but most of it was room temperature except for the middle with melted cheese which was hot.

Sri Aachi Aappakadai, chicken kari dosa

One of the menu pictures showed something called chicken masala dosa. We ordered it as such but noticed that it was billed as chicken kari dosa. Not much difference I would think between the two anyway. This was pretty good. Inside the rice floor pancakes were tender curried potatoes, egg and tender chunks of chicken. I thought I tasted ghee in this. Quite delicious with and without the chutneys.
