Roti canai was delicious. Freshly cooked roti nice and crispy and you get 2 large pieces and the curry sauce was full of flavour. The traditional Laska was yummy. Very big portion size and delicious broth.

The food was so incredibly authentic, the service was careful and attentive, and the prices were absolutely outstanding - not only for Central London, but for any major metropolis, even most in Asia where one would struggle to get a whole crab cooked as perfectly as Kopitiam does it for only £15 (the beef rendang with insanely crispy and chewy roti was similarly delicious and well-priced). While seating was limited, the chef came out to let us know they’ll be expanding soon and we can’t wait to go back (and in fact have a few trips planned already).
