Dosa World is a South Indian restaurant at 46 Hanbury Street, just off Brick Lane. Its menu draws particularly on the cooking of Kerala and Tamil Nadu, giving diners an alternative to the better known North Indian dishes found across much of the surrounding area.
Dosas are a defining part of the experience, with thin fermented rice and lentil crepes served crisp around savoury fillings and accompanied by chutneys and sambar. Idli, vada, pani puri and bhel puri add steamed, fried and crunchy street food textures for a varied opening to the meal.
Curries cover lamb, chicken, fish and prawns, often using coconut milk, curry leaves, black pepper, tamarind and regional spice blends. Biryani and kothu paratha offer substantial one dish options, while rice, breads and side dishes make it easy to build a larger shared spread.
Vegetarian cooking receives particular attention through dishes such as avial, sambar, okra, chickpea curry, aubergine masala, saag paneer and coconut dressed vegetables. That depth of choice, together with freshly prepared dishes and long daily opening hours, suits both mixed groups and diners seeking a fully vegetarian meal.
