Response to Flapjack Man

from Fred Sun (redsky3@yahoo.com)
He's making Roti Prata (aka Parotha, Roti Chanai, etc), a wheat pancake that's usually eaten with curry. It's fluffier than naan because its tossed real thin and folded but is heavier than crepes. Optional fillings include chopped onion, egg, ground mutton, sardines, chicken, or banana with ice cream topping. An serious amount of oil is used to enhance the fluffy interior and crispy exterior. Every vendor has their own style and some guys have a devoted following among the late night crowd. The guy in the picture is renting a corner from the Muslim eatery hence the signboard. His menu is in the upper left corner. Hope you enjoyed your burrito. 8-)
