The tea shop soon began offering Malenadu style akki rotti to hungry travellers. And then meals followed, fuelled by Girija’s recipes and a wood fire, a simple affair, rice, rotti or raagi mudde, served with homely preparations of sambar, rasam, vegetable, pickle, papad, buttermilk and curd. Their following may have grown over the years, but the eatery remains as basic as it was when they first opened; I asked Balwant why he didn’t have a name board, and he modestly replied, “I thought I would put up a board when I improved the hotel,” meaning the interiors.  His son, Prashant interrupts to say “we are on google maps and customers find us so we don’t need a signpost anymore.” And that’s true, it’s the simple yet tasty village style food served in a rustic setting here that’s a big draw for locals and travellers alike and earned for the establishment the moniker, Akki Roti Hotel Anemahal.  Akki Rotti The Malenadu style akki rotties are served hot and puffy with homemade butter that makes for a simple yet delicious accompaniment to the toasty crackle of the rotti. A tasty vegetable saagu, curry made of raw banana and bengal gram, helps one make a sumptuous meal of these rotties. There’s a spicy green chilli chutney completes the plate. Rs. 50 (usd )  9/10  Meals  Choose from rice or raagi mudde served with a delicious homestyle sambar and a fingerlicking rasam that’s a flavourful play of spicy, sour and sweet on the palate. A dry vegetable for the day adds to the tasty nutrition of this meal, and there’s some homemade curd, buttermilk, happala and pickle to round off the meal. Rs. 60 8/10  Happy Eating!
