Inventive Indian Appetizers and Small Bites
We take the comfort of street-side flavours like aloo tikki and puchkas and dress them for the tasting table. Our starters are where tradition meets invention, crafted to spark conversation before the main act.
A playful prelude to the Indian Accent experience. Here, you see our dhokla bites, chaat canapés, and kothimbir vadi, each a familiar flavour thoughtfully reimagined with clever textures and surprising pairings.
A closer look at our dhokla, presented as a delicate bite-sized cube on a spoon. It's a small taste of our philosophy: familiar flavours, presented in an entirely new light.
Our take on chaat, served in a crisp canapé shell over a bed of chickpeas. It’s a burst of tangy, sweet, and savoury flavours, finished with an edible flower for a touch of elegance.
Kothimbir vadi, a classic Maharashtrian snack, is presented on a dried leaf. This small bite is packed with flavour, showcasing how we honour tradition while adding our own inventive touch.

Our ghee roast soya boti is a vegetarian delight, served with roomali roti pancakes and an assortment of chutneys. It’s an interactive dish that invites you to scoop, dip, and savour the medley of flavours.
This is our paneer tikka chaat, served as a khakra mille-feuille with a dollop of Shimla mirch mayo. The layers of crisp khakra and flavourful paneer create a delightful textural experience.
A single bharwan mirch, or stuffed chili, is presented with artistic flair. It is filled with a goat cheese mousse and served with a chilli aam papad chutney, balancing spice with creamy and tangy notes.

About A Playful Prelude
Our signature cornetts are where this journey begins. Each is a crisp, hand-rolled pastry filled with spiced mixtures and finished with a delicate mousse, a process we have rehearsed countless times to ensure the texture is just right. It is not just a bite, it is a carefully calibrated balance of spice and cream.
At Indian Accent, the prelude to your meal is more than a quick bite. It is a carefully orchestrated opening act. We take familiar street-side inspirations like aloo tikki, puchkas, and kothimbir vadi and dress them for the tasting table. Take our signature cornetts as a prime example. These are not merely snacks. They represent our culinary philosophy in miniature. We start with a crisp, hand-rolled shell, fill it with a spiced mixture, and pipe a savory mousse on top. It looks effortless, but it requires patience and precision to achieve the exact textural contrast between the crunch and the cream.
Our approach to starters extends to dishes like the paneer tikka chaat, where we use a khakra mille-feuille for structural elegance, or our bharwan mirch, which balances spice with a smooth goat cheese mousse. Whether you are vegetarian or choosing from our non-veg menu, our small plates serve as a bridge between the street flavours of our childhood and the refined techniques of our kitchen. We invite you to explore this menu as an entry point to the complete Indian Accent experience in New Delhi.
