00:02 - Today we're exploring Bukit Bintang

00:11 in search of the viral Mon Chinese beef roti.

00:14 Roma has it that some people had to endure

00:20 a two hour wait just to place their orders.

00:23 But, since it's a weekday and it's in the morning,

00:28 the line is not that long so,

00:29 we don't have to wait that long.

00:31 Once the first batch of roti was ready,

00:34 we seized our opportunity to order

00:37 and quickly found a seat to savor it

00:39 while it was still piping hot.

00:41 We opted to try the beef version first.

00:45 Surprisingly, the roti doesn't resemble traditional roti.

00:48 It's more akin to a flaky curry puff

00:52 with a remarkably soft interior.

00:54 (speaking in foreign language)

00:55 Yeah.

00:56 It tastes like mutabak.

00:59 (speaking in foreign language)

01:03 Just picture biting into a curry puff

01:06 with the delightful essence of mutabak fillings.

01:10 The beef option is priced at six ringgit

01:13 while the chicken is five ringgit.

01:15 The portion size is perfect

01:18 if you're craving something filling but not overly heavy,

01:21 making it an ideal breakfast choice.

01:24 Now I'm trying the chicken.

01:26 Personally, we found the beef option

01:28 more satisfying than the chicken.

01:30 But the chicken is kind of,

01:33 this is (speaking in foreign language)

01:35 but I love the beef.

01:36 (speaking in foreign language)

01:37 The experience is undoubtedly worth the wait in line,

01:40 making it a culinary adventure well worth embarking on.
