About Tawa Roti Butter
This is our plain tawa roti given a finish of butter. The base is the same: atta — whole wheat flour — and water, rolled thin and cooked fresh to order on a flat iron tawa over a high flame, turned twice until it puffs and colours in spots. The difference comes the moment it leaves the griddle, when it is brushed with melted butter while still hot. The butter softens the surface and sits on top of the bread rather than soaking all the way through, giving a richer, gentler flavour than the plain version without making it heavy or greasy.
Underneath it remains a wholewheat griddle bread, lighter than any naan, which is made from refined flour. Ghee can be used in place of butter if you ask, and the bread is halal-friendly with no pork. It suits creamy, buttery dishes especially well — pair it with dal makhani or a paneer butter masala, or use it to mop up any gravy on the menu.
The kitchen cooks to order from 9 AM to 11:30 PM every day, with last orders half an hour before close; Phetchaburi MRT is about five minutes away on foot.
Bread is made to be eaten with something, so the full menu is the place to pick the gravy it belongs to — and this note on our tandoor explains where the blistering and the char come from. It sits in our Breads menu, and regulars often order it alongside Paneer Butter Masala.

Frequently Asked Questions
When is the butter applied?
A thick dollop of butter is applied the moment the hot roti comes off the griddle so it melts well.
Does the butter make it soggy?
Not at all; it simply softens the bread further and adds a rich, medium flavour.
Is this bread healthy?
While it has added fats from the butter, it still retains the nutritional benefits of the whole wheat flour base.
Can I request clarified butter (ghee) instead?
We use dairy butter on the tawa roti. Ask us to leave it off if you need it dairy-free, or to use ghee instead.
What dishes pair best with this?
It is phenomenal with creamy dishes like Dal Makhani or Paneer Butter Masala.
