Roti Canai @ Raju


It is common for you to see crowd at mamak. But how often do you see the people are there for the food?

It's 11:30am Sunday morning. I was there for brunch.

People come to Raju for the food....to eat.

I have to say. Their roti canai is the BEST I ever tried in Klang Valley! It's not too thin/thick, crunchy at the outer layer, tender inner layer. It will not stuff you, but makes you want to have more. I never had >1 piece of roti canai in my entire life everywhere I go....until Raju. That explains why the roti canai is RM1.20 per piece.

The curry is nothing to shout about but the dhal is a must try.
P1030750 The no.2 most popular dish is the fried chicken. You will see each table surely will have at least one of these machine fried chicken marinated with spices.

The lean chicken has dry, thin & crispy skin but meat inside still juicy. RM4.50 per piece.

P1030766Besides fried chicken, fried fish there taste just as good. Many types of freshly marinated fishes for you to choose. Ikan kembung is my all time favourite @ RM4.

Besides roti, they also serve banana leaves rice. If you love curry mutton, try Raju's...not bad at all. RM8 per plate.

Because of it's location, in the morning many people go to Raju for breakfast after exercising at Gasing Hill. That's how I got to know the mamak. The place is shaded and nice to have a chat with friends...even until afternoon. Planning your trip now?

How to get there?
Raju is along Jalan Gasing. From PJ after the Universiti Hospital junction, go straight to Jalan Gasing. After about 1km drive, watch out for house no.92/93 (very visible, can't remember it's 92 or 93), then the "Kurangkan Laju" yellow signboard, both on your left. Turn left to a shop lots on your right. You'll see a Chinese restaurant at the corner, Raju is just at the other corner.

Food: Very good mamak food.
Ambience: Outdoor, shaded.
Price: If go in a group, it's common for you to pay >RM10 per person (incl. drinks & tax).
