The very first spot on our list of all things roti canai is definitely this humble roti canai spot in JB. If you’re a local then you will be very familiar with this stall since their roti canai is only priced at RM 1 per piece. SAY WHAT? Yup, you read it right.

2. Roti King Saleng
Next, Roti King Saleng is not your ordinary roti canai spot. This is because they start operating at 5 PM, meaning it’s roti canai for dinner or supper. Certainly, this isn’t a bad idea. However, keep in mind that the queue here may be a tad long, but you can always call in and pre-order your favourite roti canai. Besides, the name of this stall is Roti King and we’re gonna say they definitely reign the roti canai throne with their crispy flat bread.

3. Onn Kitchen
Thirdly, the Roti Canai spot you cannot afford to miss out is the one from Onn Kitchen. Aside from the Roti Canai being fluffy and accompanied with aromatic curry, the ambience here is also note-worthy. The overall environment at Onn Kitchen is one that’s family friendly. This is because they also provide other varieties of food selections that range from breakfast to dinner options. In addition, if it’s your first time visiting Onn Kitchen, you have to make your order at the counter before sitting back to enjoy the Roti Canai here.

4. Tahir Roti Canai (Warung Jalan Lembing)
Furthermore, if you’re an avid lover of Roti Canai that has a thicker consistency instead of the usual fluffy and crisp type, you’ve gotta head over to Tahir Roti Canai. This is because the owner, Mr Tahir prefers his Roti Canai with an extra weight to it. In fact, upon your first bite of the Roti Canai here, you will notice its thickness in texture. Also, accompanying the Roti Canai here is a bowl of curry that’s not for the faint of heart. With an intense spicy kick to it, it actually serves as one of the obligatory element for the perfect Roti Canai experience.

5. Restoran Selera Selatan
If you’re a local residing nearby, Restoran Selera Selatan is definitely no foreigner to you. This is due to it being a famous local breakfast spot which serves options ranging from Roti Canai all the way to Mee Rebus as well as Nasi Lemak. However, we’re only gonna be focusing on Roti Canai for today. The Roti Canai here has a traditional taste to it as you can still taste the base of the dough. This sort of taste is rare nowadays so if you’re looking for old-school Roti Canai, head over to Restoran Selera Selatan.

6. Restoran Md. Salleh
Often times, the curry that accompanies a plain Roti Prata/Roti Canai is either Fish Curry or on the grand side, Beef Curry. However, here at Restoran Md. Salleh, the curry gravy that accompanies the flatbread here include Beef Rendang as well as Sambal Sotong. Essentially, the Sambal Sotong here is prepared out of cuttlefish. The result is a thick curry gravy with spicy kick to it. The Roti Canai here has a crispy, slightly thinner consistency. If you love Roti Canai, we’d highly recommend you to order 2 slices. Finally, here’s a Pro Tip: the restaurant might be a little packed during peak hours so some patience is necessary.

7. Restoran Furong 芙蓉华人煎饼
Next, it’s pretty rare for us to find Roti Canai prepared by Chinese proprietors in Johor. Thus, Restoran Furong is one of the rare gems that serves awesomely crispy Roti Canai in Johor The best part is that the Roti Canai here uses minimal amount of vegetable oil so we can savour more than one slice of these flatbreads. In addition, there are 3 types of curries that are being served here at Restoran Furong which includes Spicy Curry, Sambal Chilli as well as Potato Curry. This means that you can opt for curry gravies with varying degrees of spiciness.

8. Roti Canai Fendi
(Instagram)
The eighth Roti Canai spot in Johor no one should afford to miss out is Roti Canai Fendi. To most of us, this name is abuzz due to its reasonably priced yet delicious Roti Canai. Also, the Dhal here comes with a dallop of sweet spicy sambal that certainly adds a spicy kick to dip your flatbread into. Roti Canai Fendi is an establishment of over 2 decades which means they probably know the Roti Canai game well. In addition, the Roti Bawang here is also a must-order for the sweet, fragrant onions that are well stuffed in the flatbread.

10. Shyang 详 Kopitiam
Lastly, but certainly not the least Roti Canai spot on our list is the humble Shyang 详 Kopitiam, another rendition of Chinese Roti Canai. If you’ d like to know the difference between Chinese Roti Canai and non-Chinese Roti Canai lies in the oil used. The former uses vegetable oil while the latter uses ghee. Also, here at Shyang Kopitiam, you’ll get Roti Canai fillings that are unique such as tuna, ham, cheese and plenty more. When you pair the Roti Prata with in-house made curry, you’ll be glad that Roti Canai exists.
