I really don't know why
Jun 19, 2007These are bloody overrated buggers!!
Yet, we still keep going back. Idiots! (I'm one of them) Why are we doing this? I don't know...
Their pratas are biscuit-sized and deep fried. Yes DEEP FRIED... Obviously this is the reason for the crispness.
The usual culprits are their crispy prata, mushroom and cheese prata, prata bomb and paper prata. You can't go wrong with these.
The Indian uncles might seem a bit rude but its really only because they're a little deaf... and grumpy. But once u get to know them and they've made a certain amount of money from you, well.. you'll get used to it - like the majority of the Thomson population. Thomsonites.
This might be one of the reasons for its thriving business, its a community thing. But that doesn't answer the rest of the people from the edges and corners of the island.
Perhaps the only way to find out is to try it out yourself.Must Tries

Terrible Food and Service!!
Nov 1, 2008I have to say this place is absolutely terrible!
I was there at about 1.30am on Friday night. Took so long to take my order and waited for 30 mins for food to be served.
Teh tarik tasted do diluted and loaded with milk. Then worse of all, 4 of us ordered 4 prata's but it came with 2 plates, 3 sets of utensils and only 1 curry! When we notified then to get more plates and utensils, we were ignored. Had to get it myself.
Then, the stack of 4 prata's were disassembled. And to my astonishment, it was all torn up and looked like someone had already half eaten it!
Ugh! NEVER EVER AGAIN! -
From Best prata to worst
Jun 11, 2009I used to come to this roti prata house to eat prata. The prata was very nice, crispy, fragrant etc etc last time..... but after about 1 year of not coming to this shop, the standard actually drop until like mad.
No offence to SFI(Army boys will know) but, came recently to this prata shop and the food is worst than SFI food. Amost same as the food I ate in brunei camp. The prata is cold and hard and I had a hard time chewing the prata.
And the worst part they charge me $23 for a few prata. Which when confronted by me they said they calculated wrongly should be $13.
Somemore plates are not cleared etc.
Maybe should wait for another one year before I visit this shop again... see whether they improve again.

Disappointing experience
May 24, 2009I regret not bringing a camera along. This place and its food are absolutely horrible.
First of all, the menu does not have prices on it. You can order, and you'll never know what you are being charged for. Granted, prata is usually inexpensive so we ignored the lack of pricing and made our orders of 1 honey paper prata, 2 egg pratas, 1 mushroom prata, 2 teh-tariks, and 1 nasi goreng (chicken)
The teh-tarik that came first were horrendous. Both cups of teh-tarik tasted like herbal water with sweetened milk. One of the teh-tarik was visibly lesser than the other cup, as if someone had taken a sip out of it.
Then, came the nasi goreng. The nasi goreng looked messy and unappetizing although it was given in a huge portion. But what's the point when it tasted as bad as it did? The rice was too oily, the chicken was nearly all bone and skin and the cucumber tasted bitter. My friend ate only about 1/4 of the given portion before she was too turned off to continue. Oh, and did I mention there was a curly strand of hair in it? I don't even want to imagine where it came from.
And if that wasn't bad enough we were served and charged for a mushroom and cheese prata instead of the mushroom prata that was ordered. And besides the extra cheese, there were also 2 EXTRA STRANDS OF CURLY HAIR. I only found the hair after eating half the prata was completely disgusted by them.
The honey paper prata and egg prata were okay-tasting. And to be fair, we were served rather quickly even though there were quite a number of people around.
We went to this place because friends had recommended it and never expected to be treated with so many 'extras'. This is such a disappointing experience.Spent about

Non-peak hour
Apr 14, 2009I went during weekdays after dinner timing and expected, there is no crowd.
The service is definitely better and faster. At least the waiter is alot friendlier than peak hours and I do understand why.
I was abit disappointed that the plain prata did not come out to be freshly made. If you have been eating prata for many years, you can see whether it is freshly made or not. First the heat and second is the overall texture.
However, the egg prata that I ordered is freshly made. That is why I can really see and taste the difference.
I would still rate the food as high because it really taste nice and non not made on the spot, the plain prata still taste fine. Nothing is perfect, this is good enough.
I also ordered mee goreng. other then the many black chao da thingy, it taste good. I dun mind eating the chao da thingy, it is required to make the mee goreng have the chao da taste which make it taste better. However, my gf is quite persistent on picking them out as much as possible for health reasons. =DSpent about

food's generally okay ... some ppl might not like "crispy" though
Feb 16, 2009the food here is generally okay .... personally, i quite like the "crispy-style" prata but some others may not ... so pretty much personal preference
the pricing seems to be reasonable? -- as compared to other prata places?
only complaint is the service lah ... they always don't bother to take orders, and sometimes will forget what your order is ... sighzSpent about

crispy pratas for ME!
Jan 23, 2009a friend brought me to the roti prata house after realizing i was in search of good prata places that were opened 24 hours. hahaha.
set in a coffee shop by the roadside. there was not much ambience but as we went in the wee hours of the morning at 3am plus. it was peaceful and quite cooling. =) service was quite prompt even though there were quite a handful of customers around.
we ordered a teh o. a teh halia. 2 bee hoon gorengs and 4 pieces of crispy pratas.
the teh o was common. but my friend's teh halia came as a teh tarik instead. but ah well.
the crispy pratas were really crispy especially when eaten hot. but it was a bit too thick for my liking. the only thing that appealed to me was the crispiness. but otherwise i still prefer my niqqi's pratas over the crispy pratas any day. but this may be due to the fact that i like pratas that are crispy yet thin and 'hand-beaten' whereby they will 'smash' the pratas with their hands after the pratas are cooked. i guess it brings out the essence of the pratas more.
but the highlight of the meal was the bee hoon goreng whereby it was spicy. but the ingredients were plentiful and it has that wok hei smell. eating fresh out of the wok was a simple pleasure of life. =D
if i come back. it will definitely be for the bee hoon goreng! =DMust Tries

great if you know what to expect
Jan 13, 2009Face it - people don't go to the prata house for its excellent service. Service here is average on a good day, and terrible on most days. The food here is really good though - if you like your roti prata served piping hot and crispy. Floppy prata lovers begone - you have been forewarned.
Favourites here include the cheese and mushroom prata (around 3$), milo dinosaur, mee goreng (although I have no clue why people seem to like it here so much), kambing soup and briyani.
It gets better after the first time - girls, please don't come here after clubbing scantily-clad, the dude serving you will probably try to sneak a peek down your top. But come here casually dressed and you'll probably find a receptive audience to your wisecracks...
Service-wise, the most decent man you'll find here is the guy at the cashier. He's the jolly, sturdy-looking one, rather short. If you're looking for good service, approach him.
PS: Ask for your prata served with the fish curry!!! It is unbeatable. But again, I'm quite a die-hard PH fan...
PPS: Oh, and the utensils tend to be quite oily.... Ask no questions and you'll hear no lies.Must Tries

nice food!
Dec 28, 2008went there with my friends at prata house..Prata was superb because of the crispiness and serving piping hot!
ate murtabak, plain prata, egg prata, cheese and mushroom prata and teh tarik..
at first we went in we didnt expect service would be like victory at arab street.. but after sitting there and waving for their attention then they realise we are already sitting there for quite sometime without food..but subsequent orders was efficient =)
will definitely go back there for their prata as they are comparable with victory =)I also recommend this place for

Crispy prata
Oct 6, 2008From 50cents to 80Cents
from a big round and crispy prata to a small round crispy prata.
This is inflation. =)
Been hanging around this shop since it is a small shop till now expanded and even got GST already.
The prata had always been nice, cheese prata, mushroom cheese and kosong!
Crispy? Because they deep fried their pratas, try to see how much oil they cook their pratas, it is deep fried. Unhealthy.
A good place for night supper, but dont eat too much, cause all the food is very oily. including the drinks cups, oily. lol
will still go again, but prefer other shops around the place, better choice.Must Tries
plain prata, mushroom cheese, cheese prata, nasi goreng, teh chino ice

Cheesy Prata
May 3, 2008I remembered my first time trying cheese prata. And Prata house made me realised that cheese prata is cheesy-licious. I had cheese prata while he had briyani. i must say i am very impressed with the way the prata was done. cripsy on the outside while moist and melting cheese on the inside. definitely worth buying more and more!Must Tries
cheese prata, teh tarik
