The sweet yet monstrous creation is courtesy of Laut, a Michelin-starred restaurant specialising in Southeast Asian cuisine in Union Square, NYC.
While Malaysians typically eat roti tisu on its own or dipped in dhal, Laut serves it with coconut ice cream, which is hidden within the conical structure.

Of course, the iconic "Malaysian street food" roti canai – priced at USD7.50 (RM33.47) – is also a crowd favourite among the NYC restaurant's patrons

According to [INSIDER Food](https://www.facebook.com/Insiderfood/videos/1633278426976628/), roti canai is also known as "flying bread" because of the way it is flipped. **Check out the foodie site's scrumptious video HERE:**
