Appam Central, Old Town
6 people recommend, 1 warns against itvia r/Bhubaneswar·8 comments quoted below
What people say, in short
Appam Central in Old Town is a South Indian spot that a few people recommend, mainly for its appam and stew. One diner who visited says both the chicken and veg stews were good, another says the appam is great if you have had stew before, and a first-hand commenter says it is a surprisingly authentic take that is best eaten freshly made. The caveats are real: one commenter says the food is only decent and advises keeping expectations low, though the coffee is good, and one diner who did not enjoy the chicken stew feels it may not suit Odia taste buds and will not return. Seating is limited, with one commenter saying they eat in their vehicle.
