Barkat Original Roti John Asli

Unclaimed

This shop has many patrons and two of the signature dishes are the roti john (with ikan bilis) and ayam golek as shown in my review pictures. You can also order tze char or goreng-goreng. The roti john is accompanied with thin chili sauce with vinegar, its quite fragrant because of the hidden anchovies, egg within the roti john is crispy, it costs Rm5.00 for a roti john.

Visited last Thursday. Roti john ikan bilis and nasi goreng ayam is simple and delicious. Staff was friendly and smiling.

Original famous Roti John operator in Melaka town. They started the business in 1978 at Pantai Puteri, later moved to Cheng and now at Bachang, Melaka. The new restaurant runs at 2 lots double storey shop house which is very much convenience and spacious from the previous one. The ingredients of "roti John" were made up of ikan bilis, sardines, chili and eggs (based on my personal observation and course NOT from the operator ?) and very much different from those roti John operators that were found in local night market. Car parks were easily available on the weekdays but very difficult on weekends and during school holiday. August 2020 Tonight was the second time we came here since 1998. Since the MOC is still enforced with strict SOP, there were less tourists except locals who came to eat. I must congratulate the original Roti John recipes were still maintain except the bread were not crispy as before.
