The Prata Place

So we've had Italian, Chinese, Malay, now we have Indian (we try to be multicultural)! Both Jane and I are raving about this quaint Indian restaurant just off Upper Thomson Road. It's like your usual prata shop, but with air-con! We all know how important that is to us Singaporeans :)
How awesome would it be to have Indian food in a comfortable surrounding for once, instead of a hot, stuffy coffee shop? Their prices are reasonable and for the food quality you're getting, ho ho ho you're in for a treat! Crispy prata freshly made once you order, no pre-cooking and stacking like they do elsewhere. Ask for fish curry. I always do.
Jane's favorite was the prata bomb. If you don't know what this is, you suck. It's basically a sweet prata that's laced with honey and sugar and whether you have it with curry or by itself, you'll have an addiction that's really cheap to support! You might think that in an air-conditioned restaurant, perspiring wouldn't be an issue. Right, Jane? You wanna tell them how you can't even handle mild curry? Oh wait, I just did. I'm gonna do it again: Jane cannot take anything spicy! HA HA HA, what a wuss... She was tearing and had beads of sweat on her forehead throughout! Regardless, we were close to licking our plates when we were done.
I tried the mutton briyani and was just shocked at how much mutton they gave me! I was out of rice and still had mutton left over. They were really tender and very well cooked. The mutton pieces don't taste funky whatsoever (you know how when you have mutton soup and the mutton taste funky and you wonder if they just came across a dead, rotting lamb and decided to harvest the meat from it?). It's got the right amount of spiciness (which would be too much for Jane anyway).
Finally, we're out of Yishun...
