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.
