Taste of Springvale
Fluffy and authentic, the Roti Canai is widely regarded as the best in Melbourne, pairing beautifully with a diverse selection of fish, lentil, and sambal curries. While most find the experience highly transportive to Malaysia, one diner found the fare somewhat average compared to the standout Teh Tarik.

“This is the only place I've found in Melbourne that serves a decent Roti Canai/Prata. They also have an extensive range of common Malaysian breakfast mains like Nasi Lemak and other Canai/Prata variations. Teh Tarik is good. Everything we've tried was quite authentic and the rest also feels like it would be. They are also respectable for attempting”
