Asian Rice Pot
To many, Asian Rice Pot at SS5 offers one of the best Malaysian indulgence, packed with curries, rotis and yours truly, thosai. Made to be thinner than most places, it helped in terms of crusting the edge a tad quicker, giving it that nice contrast of texture between the edge and the core. The taste of the thosai too is noticeable, but subtle enough to enjoy with some amazing curries!
