The Ayutthaya Roti are subtle in flavor, thanks in part to the delicate addition of ingredients like pandan leaf (makes the green-hued roti) and butterfly flower (makes the purple-hued sai mai). There's a bit of an initial satisfying crunch from the sugar threads, but they quickly congeal and melt away into your mouth as your chew the light roti.
