About Appam
Appam is a bowl-shaped pancake from Kerala made with fermented rice and coconut batter. The edges are thin and lacy, and the middle stays soft and spongy.
Regional versions
Egg appam has an egg cooked in the center. In Tamil Nadu it is often called aappam, and in Sri Lanka a similar dish is known as hoppers.
What to order with it
The classic pairing is vegetable or chicken stew made with coconut milk. Kadala curry, a black chickpea curry, is the vegetarian favorite.

How this list is made
We started from public records, OpenStreetMap and Overture Maps, searched town by town for places those records miss, and read each restaurant's menu from its website or online ordering page. Places whose opening hours we could not confirm recently say so, and we check them again every month. Dishes marked "on the menu" come from the restaurant's own website or ordering page. "Usually served" is our best guess from the style of the place, so call ahead if you have your heart set on it.
