You heard it right. Lagta hai apne Akki bhaiya itne famous ho gaye ki, restaurants and eateries now have roti/chapati/naan named after him. ;)
I had recently been to a place called "Ganesh Darshan" in Jayanagar, Bangalore. I still don't know exact name of this eatery. Rumors say its called "Ganesh Darshan" only. I could not find even a single board in English which verifies that. Now this eatery was hell crowded. So I decided to try some stuff here. I am thankful to the eatery owner for atleast putting menu in English and Kannada.
Yahan par dekha toh apne akki bhaiya ke naam ki rotiyan ban rahi thi. Super cool, eh. They call this "Akki Roti". I too ordered one. Itna tasty laga ki, I ate 2 roti's. Baad mein pata chala that 'akki' means 'chawal', and as always google and wikipedia knows everything before you do. The search engine showed me a wiki page on akki roti.
FYI, if u search 'Akki kannada', our akki bhaiya will be listed on top of search results ;)
