Malaysians Love Their Roti: Roti Canai in the Morning, Roti Naan Cheese Tarik in the Evening
The delicious flatbread we call Roti Naan has its origins in India.
However, the best place to savor Roti Naan Cheese Tarik is not at an Indian or Mamak restaurant, but at a Pakistani Restaurant in Shah Alam, Selangor!

It’s cooked in a tandoor oven, giving it a distinct flavor and texture.
