Must-try roti spots in Edmonton
Roti has a long tradition in Indian culture, but you’ll also find this staple in the southern Caribbean countries as well. It’s a bread, typically flat and round, that’s been cooked on a griddle. Depending on the country of origin, you’ll find slight variations in taste, but ultimately it’s the same delicious thing. It’s sometimes served as a side and sometimes used to sandwich some delicious curries.
Irie Foods Caribbean Cuisine
2807 Mill Woods Rd NW, Edmonton, AB T6K 4A9amaican food that serves up some of the best roti in town ‐ no kidding. Try the curry chicken and, if you’re into vegetarian dishes, their “ital” version (veggie) changes depending on what’s in the stock that day.
Indian Fusion
8208 107 St Nw, Edmonton, AB T6E 6P4The tandoori roti is quite amazing and not too spicy. Their specials are really worth trying and don’t be afraid to ask them what’s “not” on the menu.
Kathir Food Experience Inc

Loma House Vegetarian Restaurant
9142 23 Ave NW, Edmonton, AB T6N 1H9For those Meatless Mondays, try a little spicy eggplant and the party platter, which boasts spring rolls, veggie shrimp rolls (you won’t be able to tell the difference!), satay kebabs and, of course, the incredible roti.
East Restaurant

Tropika Malaysian Cuisine
14921 Stony Plain Rd NW, Edmonton, AB T5P 4W1A fusion restaurant that brings a delicious blend of curry and Chinese food. The kari kambing is a melt‐in‐your‐mouth lamb curry and you’ll need the roti to help you sop up the extra sauce.
Narayanni's Restaurant

Padmanadi Vegetarian Restaurant
10740 101 St NW, Edmonton, AB T5H 2S3Another vegan option, but with a twist ‐ a brunch twist. We’re betting you won’t be able to tell their Thai tofu benedict is vegan. Order a side of roti canai, an Indonesian flat bread that comes with curry sauce for dipping.
