Here, bread is never an afterthought. We treat the tandoor like a canvas, turning familiar favourites into something entirely new.

Our kulchas have a following of their own. This overhead shot shows a variety of our stuffed breads, from classic potato to inventive blue cheese, each quartered and ready for sharing.

Our bread bar brings the warmth of the tandoor to your table. Here, an assortment of our breads is served with our signature black dal, chutneys, and house-made pickles. Just tear, dip, and repeat.

As featured in 50 Best Discovery, we offer unexpected breads like a parmesan chur chur paratha and a kulcha stuffed with applewood-smoked bacon.

A peek behind the scenes at the making of our iconic blue cheese naan. The dough is hand-stuffed, slapped onto the tandoor wall, and baked until puffy and golden.

About this collection

Our breads are crafted to stand alone as the stars of the meal, not just as sides. Consider the blue cheese naan; it’s an icon here, balancing the deep, pungent character of blue cheese with the comforting chew of fresh tandoori dough. It’s the kind of dish that makes you pause and rethink the potential of a simple bread.

At Indian Accent, the tandoor is the heart of our kitchen. We believe the bread basket should be as memorable as the main course, which is why we’ve dedicated a specific bar to reinterpreting these classics.

Every morning, our chefs begin the process by balancing dough textures and flavour profiles. You will find layers of complexity in our black garlic naan, where the earthy, sweet notes of fermented garlic meet the comfort of traditional butter naan. For something with a crunch, our parmesan chur chur paratha brings a savoury, cheesy depth that pairs perfectly with our signature black dairy dal and house-made pickles.

We also push boundaries with fillings like applewood-smoked bacon in our kulchas, offering a contrast of textures that feels familiar yet entirely modern. Whether you are dining at our New Delhi restaurant or enjoying a tasting menu, these breads are designed to spark conversation. They are intended to be torn, dipped, and shared, serving as the bridge between our inventive small plates and the richer, slow-cooked mains that define our philosophy.
