Dosa Hut needs no introduction today. Regarded as the fastest growing Indian restaurant chain, it has become the go-to Indian multi-cuisine restaurant for foodies all across Australia today. But our story can best be described as a fortunate accident, much to our delight.
Our founders, Anil Kumar Karpurapu and Praveen Indukuri were batch mates studying telecommunications in Melbourne. Being foodies at heart, they would often travel long distances to satiate their love for Dosa, as there weren’t many South Indian restaurants around back then. This led them to start their own food venture, an Indian restaurant called Salaam Namaste. Three years of hands-on experience later, they opened the doors to the very first Dosa Hut in Footscray, in 2007. This turned out to be the start of an eventful and fulfilling journey, and continues till date as we serve over 7 million customers annually.
We are often asked about our secret to success. But ask any of our regulars, and they will let you in on our open secret – being authentic to our roots, not compromising on quality, and keeping our customers first.
