Jalan Kayu Prata Cafe (West Coast Plaza)

Now people residing in the West can also get to enjoy the famous Jalan Kayu pratas without having to travel halfway across Singapore. I don't know how authentic the Jalan Kayu Prata Cafe is, but it does serve its purpose of providing tasty Indian food to the residents in the area.

 

 

 
It is a prata place, so naturally the first thing I tried are the pratas. I ordered my usual: 1 Mushroom & Cheese Prata + 1 Egg Prata + 2 Plain Prata (minimum order for plain prata is 2). I asked for both chicken and fish curry.
 
Ironically, I prefer the plain pratas to the ones with fillings. Egg Prata and Mushroom & Cheese Prata is about the same everywhere. The plain pratas, on the other hand, are a little crispy on the outside but chewy on the inside. 
 
I prefer the chicken curry to the fish curry. I find the texture and taste of the chicken just right, but I find the spices in the fish curry a little too overwhelming. Well, at least they are consistent in their taste.
 
They may not have the best pratas, but it's location and economical prices will have many people returning time and again. The fact that there is NO GST and NO SERVICE CHARGE helps too.
 
Then again, I think it is almost impossible to determine the best prata, because everyone has their own preference. How do you like your prata and which place serves the best prata in your opinion? Please leave a comment and let me know what you think.

PAUL

PAUL is a renowned family French bakery and patisserie founded in 1889. Bringing with them them the fine tradition of passion for food and French traditions, PAUL gives Singaporeans a glimpse into French culture and tradition through the delicious and visually-appealing pastries and food.       PAUL's Hot Chocolate is not as creamy as I would have liked it but every last drop is made with good-quality cocoa powder.     Lemon Tart With Meringue is not exactly my favourite dessert, but it looked so pretty that I decided to give it a try anyway. However, it proved to be too sour for my palette even with the beautifully flamed meringue.    Croque Madame is croque-monsieur (grilled ham and cheese sandwich) topped with a fried egg. Emmental cheese, cream and ham is sandwich in pain de eie and toasted till a rich golden brown colour. Topped with a fried egg with runny yolk, every bite is filled with delicious goodness.   Address and telephone n...

O'ma Spoon

                        Korean bingsu is a popular Korean dessert comprising of ice shavings and various ingredients such as sweetened condensed milk, fruit syrups, fresh fruits, Korean rice cake and ice-cream. Bingsu is all the craze in Singapore now and Korean bingsu cafes are popping up everywhere like wild mushrooms.                            Besides bingsu, this dessert cafe also serves usual cafe offerings such as coffee and tea. I have been told that their Signature Oven-Baked Honey Bread is very good. The flavours include Strawberry & Chocolate with Ice Cream, Banana & Chocolate with Ice Cream and Green Tea with Ice Cream.     I was told that   Mango Cheesecake Bingsu   is one of the most popular item on the menu. Oh my, it is a sight to behold! A bowl of shaved ice is topped with sweetened condensed milk and freshly-cut m...

Grandma's - Authentic Singapore Food

Grandma's has been around for quite a while now but I only got the chance to try their food recently when the third outlet opened in Suntec City.        I remember having these prawn crackers when I was little. They are so easy and good to eat, I can finish a whole package of this in one sitting.     I don't usually order Malay food, but the Nasi Bukhari looked so good in the menu, I thought I will give it a try. Fragrant yellow turmeric rice is served with golden brown chicken leg which is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Prawns were fresh and succulent but I don't really like the sauce the prawns are cooked in. What really amazes me about this dish is the beef rendang.          I never knew Bo Bo Cha Cha is so such a delightful dessert until I tried it here at Grandma's. The warm and thick coconut tastes so good with chunks of sweet potato and yam. This is definitely comfort food that warms the heart.   Gr...
