Achappam (rose cookie) with fig jam, brown butter sorbet and coconut mousse

This crunchy, flower-shaped biscuit is found all over Kerala, South India — and now, right here on Punch Lane. Crack the cookie with the back of your spoon and dig all the way down to capture every element in each bite.

Like all good things, our peak-season fig jam must come to an end. On until it’s not.

New Year’s Eve 2025

Adi’s grandfather loved eating rasam — a tomato and pepper broth — with vadai, those crisp lentil doughnuts that make a fitting vessel for anything saucy.

The first time we tasted pippies here, they came with chips in a classic bouillabaisse. Something fried paired with something brothy. An unmatched combination. This dish weaves those two memories together on one plate.

This NYE, we’re looking forward to serving you dishes that touch on home and tradition. If you’d like to celebrate with us (which we do rather well, might we add), our doors are open.
