6 Places In Singapore That Prove Roti Prata Isn’t Just Fried Dough With Curry
Roti prata is undoubtedly one of Singapore’s favourite local foods and this Indian flatbread is a popular breakfast and supper item.
Roti Prata is typically paired with curry or sugar but over the years, the humble flatbread has since evolved to feature all sorts of toppings and ingredient pairings. Now, you can find unusual yet interesting creations such as chocolate prata, plaster prata and even eggs benedict prata. However, we admit that many a time we usually find ourselves drifting back to the classic egg or plain roti prata.
Hankering for the real-deal authentic feel? Here are 6 roti prata shops in Singapore that prove that original is, and always will be, best.
For simple prata done right, Casuarina Curry Restaurant is the place to be. This humble establishment manages to nail the basics every time by consistently whipping up roti pratas that are perennially crispy without being overly oily, which is quite a hard feat to achieve. We also love how they aim to keep their prices low despite the massive portion sizes. It is no wonder they have such a loyal customer base even after so many years.

We aren’t lying when we say that Mr & Mrs Mohgans has some of the best prata that we have ever had. Granted that their roti prata may not be the cheapest around, what people really go for is the superb quality that comes with having a better dough, better elbow grease action, and raw authenticity. For those in search of real-deal, crispy prata in the morning, Mr & Mrs Mohgan’s is a definite must to visit.

Prata Alley is known for putting a fun local spin on all-time favourites such as prata, murtabak, and roti john. They have even begun experimenting with pizzas and now have pizza pratas which are stuffed with mozzarella cheese, bolognese sauce, mushrooms, chicken chunks and olive. However, if you’re not feeling very experimental, they also have the usual prata classics such as plain prata and cheese & egg prata.

R K EATING HOUSE
R K Eating House is one of the more well-known places on this list and this popular supper spot is famous for their addictively crispy prata as well as their gigantic tissue prata that is so big that it has to be shared amongst a few people.
