Interesting news in the papers today.
You gotta hand it over to roti canai makers in Malaysia for always managing to come up with creative names for a seemingly simple piece of pancake.
A few years back I’ve only heard of Roti Canai (plain), Roti Susu (milk), Roti Telur (egg). These days they’re churning out new names as fast as Nokia churning up new mobile phones.
*cough*lgchocolate*cough*
An enterprising restaurant owner in Penang has banked in on the World Cup fever and came up with a range of roti canais named after teams in the World Cup 2006. Among them Roti England (potato and butter), Roti Brazil (banana and chocolate), Roti Korea (crabsticks).
What is Roti France? French toast?
That’s all fine and dandy, because these are all popular teams in the competition.
But what about those lesser-known countries? Do they have a Roti Trinidad & Tobago? What about Angola or Tunisia? Who is gonna make a roti canai for them?
See, I don’t like favouritism or elitism. I think the qualifying teams for the World Cup 2006 all worked hard and all deserve to have a roti canai named after them. No one should be left out.
So I’ve taken the liberty to create my own recipes for some of the lesser-known countries competiting in the World Cup.
First up, is a roti named after a first-time qualifying nation from Africa,
Roti Togo!
Delicious and flaky roti canai topped with an ornamental tribal mask, this roti is sure to make the African drums in your tongue beating through day and night.
Next, is my tribute to the richest oil-producing nation in the world,
Roti Saudi Arabia!
This is one roti canai soaked with so much cooking oil, you can build a freakin’ oil rig on top of it.
If that’s neither of those are your taste, maybe you’d like to take a bite at…
Roti Iran!
You’ve all heard of Roti Bom, but have you ever heard of Roti Nuclear Bom?
I tell ya, it’s gonna be such a blast.
Czech lost to Ghana 0-2. Can you believe it? Si beh Ghanasai.
hahahaa..nice one man!!!
Roti banana and chocolate for brazil? wonder how that came about… but it sounds yummy!!
Wow I don’t mind having some now….
Roti Nuclear bom sounds deadly man..
Honestly, the food there sucks. According to my girl anyway. It’s just opposite from her school. The mamak stall. 🙂
hehe…nowadays got all kinds of roti…
I got the feeling that Kenny will update tonite. And you really did! 😉
roti nuclear bomb may cause mutation lol
delicious + humorous + creative =
i kinda like. 🙂
really, Kenny. Wat exactly do u do? Ur job is to blog? Coz i can tell the time u spent photoshoping every picture like dat.
Hey, I read that too. Too bad it’s in Penang
well, i don’t know about you Jenn, but i think it doesn’t take too long to photoshop things like that. or at least i don’t. do you?
LOL. roti iran..
too bad the ingredients of roti england/brazil/korea doesn’t portray their country.
You are the PRO of creative sideline thinking man!
wei you just cut and paste stuffs on the same old roti only 😛
any sexy roti like roti awek? ^-^
Oh yah, the one I ate at Toa Payoh that day was Roti Durian.
Riggghhhhhttttt. Heh.
You support which team?
Then Roti Malaysia = Roti + Sambal?
Roti Japan = Roti + Salmon?
Roti China = Roti + Peking Duck?
Roti Taiwan = Roti + Chen-Sui-Bian…? =p
Roti buyo~
saw that too in the papers, but the roti pictures looks like ur having it in a chinese restaurant…marble table
18th comment! w00! I like roti. Haven’t had it in forever.
uh.. why the roti look like telur dadar? is it always like that in malaysia? O_o
If I ordered roti Singapore. 1 red dot. -.-‘
the names they come up with. sometimes you don’t even know what they are
FIRST BITCHES
ah…miss roti canai alot…
Actually they have it few years back already but now the enterprise restaurant commercialised it. I remember last time I was just kidding by order a Roti Bosnia satu!!! My other friends did the same thing by order other countries name. And u know what? They really made it! Supprise? The only thing different is the ingredients only, as what I see was similiar concept as Pizza ingredients and they applied it on roti canai.
you’re hell funny man.
Can we have Roti Kennysia?? Any suggestion for the recipe??
In Penang, most mamak shop will display their list of rotis such as roti bom, roti tissue roti hong kong, roti san francisco (wonder how they concoct such names) , roti disco. By the way, roti pisang or roti banana taste really delicious.
Best name so far is roti JANTAN, comes with two egg but minus the banana.
Many years back during the early 90’s, do any of you remember the Mona Fendy trial. She was convicted of murdering a Dato mazlan who was chopped to 18 pcs. Well, during the trial, Mona Canai was very popular – you guessed it, the roti canai was chopped to 18 pcs and served!
make me so hungry!!!!! gah~!!!
Roti Iran can be controversial!
…else…it’s a good one kenny!!!

Good blog, by the way.
i dont understand why chocolate and banana. actually singapore has all kinds of roti prata. strawberry, peach, mango, icecream yadayada. (:
I thought this post too forced and terribly lame. At least ya sense of humour was still intact with the lgchoc thing.
Roti Kenny, made of cheese and ham ahahha… nice entry man..
> Roti Kenny, made of cheese and ham
HAHAHAHAHAHA! Now THAT is funny, Cheryl. No offence, Kenny.
How about Roti Korea, with nice bits of dog inside. RM5 for purebreeds, RM2 for mongrel meat. Yummy.
If it’s Roti Malaysia, it should be Roti Kosong
😛
roti kennysia is made of COCONUT. or with the coconut… those white snow flakes like thing they get when they SHAVE the coconut – don’t know what u call them….
hmm… Roti Kenny = coconut + coconut flakes.
take a bite and u’ll go nuts,
ur balls will turn into peanut size.
.
yr entry makes me hungry
the Togo pieces seem to resemble one of its Forward Player… haha…
I wonder what roti Australia would look like – maybe with kangaroo meat and a bomerang on top.
muahaha…where is Brazil ? Roti Samba !
this entry so lame, it is outright stupid. primary school humour
My god, Pratas of Mass Destruction!
My god, Pratas of Mass Destruction!
Roti Nulcear Bom..haha.. good one
Your comment about Iran is distasteful. It is thoroughly insensitive. Iran has repeatedly told the world that it has no nuclear bombs and do not plan to built one. And in one stroke of a pen or a type of a key, you have undone all the hard work of our brothers in Iran. It is not fair.
you should have roti saudi arabia with loads of petrol over it
We’ve already had so many varieties of PRATA (that’s what we call it) until I also scared to try!!! :S
But creative lah they try to hype up with the soccer season thing, especially now everyone’s out at the kopitiams hogging the tables. Grrrr!
Lame….
this really makes my day…
u r the lamest.
Haha~ Penang RULes!!! To bad i m in OZ now… T_T
Hahaha…
Interesting one…
it’s ‘roti PRATA’ lah, dei…! Singapore and Malaysia can’t even agree on what to call this fried-dough, so how to talk about bi-lateral issues? Haha
sniffs.hungry.
nice post! i especially like the roti saudi arabia…
I read shifa’s comment. Can’t help but go “Awww. 🙁 *sniff sniff* 🙁 Poor Iran. :(”
Have you heard of Tau Sah Naan and Lin Yong Naan? Apparently someone had the sudden initiative to try, in PJ.
hahaha,….
good one kenny..
😀
why crabsticks for korea though…
:S
roti USA = burger
cameron,
Roti USA = decorated with blood red stripes, made of blood.
WHAT A FUCKING BRAINLESS ENTRY…ONLY IDIOTS WOULD FIND IT AMUSING!!!
roti japan
roti canai stuffed with sushi? eww..
nobogy goes there to eat…lame place.
mahathir is hilarious…
Roti Japan is synonymous with sanitary pad – jipun loti, ha ha ha………
To Shifa: Cool it, if you can’t take blatant humour. If you cannot differentiate sarcasm and accusation, duh, retreat to your shell please.
ZOMG!!111 KENNY VOTE FOR ME!
Man, you’re heavily inspired by SixthSeal.com aren’t you? Your entries are starting to read like his old archives except he doesn’t PhotoShop. I think you plagarize from a lot of different blogs for ideas, but the SixthSeal.com connection is unmistakable.
surfer, can I write anything these days without being accused of plagiarism?
Layout-wise mine is definitely inspired by him… as well as 2,841,697 other Movabletype-powered blogs out there.
Hahahahaha
Kenny, I felt so hungry after looking at the pratas.. (Stormed off to kopitiam to have some now)
Cheeky roti photos. Heheh. My friend last month ordered a roti tampal in kl, which came with a medium sized cockroach lying dead on top of the roti but under the telur. Any ideas on the country of origin of such bizaare delicacy? Yum Yum!!!
Mahathir, you better watch out, i’m coming out from my grave to choke you. You disappoint me!
Mahathir, you fucking brainless animal… I thought only people like PAS will say something like that… u really dissapoint me… Tonight I’ll awake from my grave and pinch your face…
lol..what’s this?
the return of the prime ministers??!!
Sighs. If you intelligently challenged people want to accuse a good blogger like kenny of plagiarism, you should come up with valid, reliable, concrete proof.
Not implying vague statements along the lines of,” oh you sound somewhat similar to..”
Even if Kenny got inspired by many other blogs, he built upon that inspiration by forming his own imaginative ideas, didn’t he? That doesn’t really equal plagiarism. Have you ever thought of the notion that two people, or two groups, might think up the same idea independently?
Before you want to fling vehement accusations at someone, re-evaluate the facts and remember to be logical in your arguments. *roll eyes*
Actually there is lot of others type of roti canai. it is not just roti kosong, roti susu, and roti telur. But there is roti pisang, roti banjir and so on. sorry la i don’t know how many variety of roti canai in Kuching, but for sure there is lot of variety.
one more thing, it is not a favoritism as it is upon the person to name their products. What they favor of or not it is depends on them
Eh kenny, i don’t understand why Brazil gets bananas and chocolate. I understand that nuclear bomb one lah, but COME ON. BANANA AND CHOCOLATE?
Like, MEH?
And the pictures are lame la kenny… hahaha
AND I SWEAR THE PRATA SHOP NEAR MY HOUSE (ok, the prata SHOPS more like) NEVER SELLS ROTI SUSU!!!!
WHERE GOT ROTI SUSU ONE?!?!?
I gotta say this, you the ROTI BOMB!!! hahaha.. Kudos
roti kennysia? hmm.. must be hairy…
I think I read this THREE years ago on SixthSeal.com and I know you read him then too.
http://www.sixthseal.com/2003/05/upgraded_dextroamphetamine_sul.html
Kenny replies: I seriously do not see the similarities at all. Wait, are you trying to advertise his website for him?
haha, maybe because banana is yellow and suits the yellow jersey of brazil. but chocolate.. hmm, maybe like the player’s skin colour ahha..
Sorry for late coming….
Guess who’s back?
back again?
PM’s back,
to the blog..
gues who’s back guess who’s back guess who’s back…
So we got 4 Ex-PM edi rite??
