Best Roti John in Melaka? Restoran Barkat Roti John @ Tanjung Kling, Malacca

The roti john I’m familiar with is the one I see sold at Ramadan Bazaars. In fact I hardly ever saw roti john back in Penang (but my time in Penang was many years ago) so roti john was one of those “KL food” (a loose term I use for food that I find unfamiliar when I first land in KL) that was new to me.

Roti John =  long bread coated with scrambled eggs with minced meat (beef or chicken), topped with cabbage and drizzled with a generous amount of mayo.
