Roti Canai is one of my favourite breakfast choices and I have tried it at various places hoping to find the best or one of the best for me. Well, if you walk in to any mamak restaurant, you will definitely find it there but many just taste mediocre or not to your taste. It made me decide that 'Not all roti canai taste the same'.

I am up early every morning and after dropping my wife at work, I will be off for breakfast and for me, breakfast means something 'Roti' based and not noodles as I prefer to have noodles in the later part of the day or night. I happened to drop by at the Original Kayu Nasi Kandar restaurant in Aman Suria (facing the NKVE) to try the roti canai. I chose to sit outside the restaurant to enjoy the cool morning air and read my newspaper. My teh tarik and roti canai came in an instant and I was pleased that the teh tarik tasted the way I like with the right amount of sweetness but not overpowering. The roti canai came in a yellow melamine plate with a small dish containing the dhall. Some people prefer to have fish curry or some other curry but I love having the dhall. They make the roti fresh upon order and the texture was just perfect for me instead of some places where they make it rather chewy. The dhall was warm and pleasant to the taste rather than being pasty as some places do. I also tried their Vadai and Samosa which were very fresh. The vadai had lots of onions and the samosas had really nice filling. This is definitely a place I will come regularly to enjoy my early morning breakfast.
They have many branches of the (Original) Kayu Nasi Kandar but I prefer this one because of the taste and location.
