Two Prata Meals In A Day!

It's been a ton of prata this whole week. Although I get to burn 'em calories, I've got prata coming out my ears. Three consecutive meals of prata were quite enough. Prata coma is real. I don't want to eat another prata till May. 😨

We were in the area at lunchtime and hit R.R Indian Stall at the Lim Kopi kopitiam at Block 107 Ang Mo Kio Avenue 4. The stall moved to this new venue from its previous space at Block 252. Didn’t take any photos at this eatery. Some said that the carrot cake (萝卜糕) at this area is good too. Forgot to ask which stall that is, and if it's in the same kopitiam. There’re two kopitiams side by side at this block. And another three more across the road at Block 108.

This location is rather far to casually swing by if we’re not in the area. Apparently this stall is known for its murtabak and Indian rojak, neither of which we ordered. Its prata is middling at best. Neither was the dough wasn’t tasty or the least bit crisp. But its curries were great. The fish curry was piquant and thick. The order of delicious chicken curry came with the thigh meat and bone. Spices were on point.

The table at Springleaf Prata Place.

Then there was dinner at Springleaf Prata Place at Jalan Tua Kong, a prata venue we always default to. These crazy people. They ordered a stack of prata kosong, and another stack of prata with egg. The fish curry offered here to go with the prata is okay; it isn't tangy and not as flavorful as one would expect of a properly broiled pot of curry with fish bones. It's kind of...cursory. It still tasted better than its previously offerred chicken curry which really stank. But its prata is truly crispy. If you care about that, Springleaf does it so well.

I had to order a beehoon goreng putih ikan bilis. I couldn't deal with this much prata!! The table also happily ordered mutton mysore and lamb biryaniAnd as though we didn't have enough prata, they still ordered a dessert prata!!! With red bean paste. Obviously the other people at the table had enough stomach space to polish off the entire plate of dessert. Goodness! 😵

Dessert prata- with red bean paste.
