all-time favourite Roti John Klasik. Baguette (French bread) and ‘Holland’
onions are the two main ingredients of the dish that makes it different from
other regular ones. The filling is packed with a generous amount of meat, egg,
onions, and other veggies resulting in a compact looking bread that is full of

and used as dipping sauce. According to their regular customers, the filling is
so flavoursome that you will not need any additional sauce to enhance the
flavour.
