Roti Chaofa – Best Halal Roti + Goat Curry in Phuket, Thailand!

Crunchy, sticky, flaky roti.

Thick, harmony of spices, ultra-tender pieces of goat.

Welcome to Roti Chaofa (โรตีเจ้าฟ้า), one of the best roti shops in Phuket and honestly, one of the best places to eat roti and curry in all of Thailand.

This will just be a really quick post, to share with you this amazing halal restaurant to eat at when you are in Phuket, Thailand.

Roti Chaofa (Roti Chaofa) – Phuket, Thailand

Located just outside Phuket Town, Roti Chaofa (โรตีเจ้าฟ้า) is a Thai, halal, Muslim restaurant specializing in varieties of roti (Thai style similar to paratha or roti canai in Malaysia).

It’s a very popular breakfast or early lunch spot and as soon as you taste their roti and curry, you’ll understand why. The food is exceptional.

They have an extensive menu with soups, biryani, a variety of curries and both sweet and savory roti.

But as for me, whenever I eat at Roti Chaofa, I’m not joking too much, I go straight to the roti and goat curry.

Roti

So first, the roti. It’s flaky, crunchy at the edges and gooey in the center. It is shredded, which enhances its crunchiness.

It’s great on its own or perfect as a container for digging.

Goat curry

Again, the goat curry is superb.

It’s not extremely spicy, but it’s ultra soothing – a comforting breakfast curry, with just the right blend of curry powder and spices. The goat itself falls off the bone tenderly.

I also like the fact that it is not an oily curry, but rather rich in sauce. A bowl of goat curry and some plain, chopped rotis and I’m already happy.

Chicken with curry

The chicken curry was ok, but not great for me. It had a slightly sweeter nutty flavor. Definitely worth trying and it’s good, but for me it’s not as good as goat.

Sweet Egg Roti (milk roti with eggs)

For a sweet change, you can get banana roti or egg roti topped with condensed milk.

We tried the egg roti, which is folded into the roti and topped with sweetened condensed milk. Again, no mistake on the roti. It was gooey, moist and delicious.

Beef soup

Another classic Thai Muslim dish is beef soup.

It’s a dish I always enjoy and the broth here was wonderful. One of the reasons I love beef soup is the raw onions and crunchy shallots, as well as the acidity of freshly squeezed lime juice.

The Beef Roti Chaofa Soup was good, but quite typical, not really out of the ordinary.

Overall, Roti Chaofa (โรตีเจ้าฟ้า) serves great halal Muslim Thai food, but the real standout dish that makes me excited to wake up every morning in Phuket for breakfast, is the combination of roti and goat curry.

My mouth is watering just thinking about it! Highly recommended for local Phuket style breakfast/early lunch.

For another breakfast option you can try Phuket dim sum.
