    Hi Gary
    Went to Roti King on Sunday, owing to this video. All I can say is, thank you.
    Had to queue up for maybe 30 minutes to get a table, but my god was it worth it!
    Had the Beef and Dhal Roti, honestly some of the best Asian food in London.

    Went to the Euston RK today Q for 20mins mid-day, this was my first ever visit, and was really looking forward to it. As I am diabetic and Roti is a far better option in comparison to a Naan. I have had many Currys with Roti, but then you have Roti and Roti King Roti, no comparison, it is in another world of quality. For anyone else with DB2, I did have a 20min walk after but had no Spike on my CGM. If I compare this to a Naan, then I would have a spike like the Shard on my CGM. Can't wait to visit again next time I am down in London!

    Roti King is amazing but the lines for both takeaway and dine in are chaotic. You have to go between 2-3PM during the weekday to not have to wait in line. Their demand far surpasses their man power unfortunately. You know it's good when you see like 10 pieces of luggage because people are so desperate to eat there as their last meal in London before they head out of town that they are willing to bring their huge suitcases in there, lol. I always get the fish curry here with some roti. Really deep flavors and delicious. One of my go to spots in London along with Hoppers (Sri Lankan), Tayyabs (Pakistani) and Kebabish Original (Afghani),

    • @theroamingcook
      @theroamingcook  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@theroamingcook I think you will be blown away by Hoppers. They have one on Wigmore street. You should try to get out to Sri Lanka next time you are in Asia. I'm Filipino American and it's my favorite vacation spot / food spot in Asia. Sri Lankan and Trinidadian are my favorite cuisines but I am a fan of any derivative of Indian food (Thai, Malaysian, Trini, Sri Lankan, Jamaican).

      Rendang is from sri lanka and kerala india, the only thing differences its sweet n little dry in Malaysia . Most of all could say all Malaysian dishes are similar to Thailand, Vietnam, China, Indonesia, India, Sri lanka. Their original traditional food, I mean no mixture of other cultures, honestly so far I dnt know n I believe non.
