Roti prata - my most favourite form of breakfast. And Mr Mohgan served one of the best I have ever eaten.
Located in a Joo Chiat coffee
shop called Poh Ho that looks pretty old, one feels like time has stopped
here.
I ordered two plain prata
($0.90 each). I love my prata to be plain because it is healthier. Healthier
than those with fancy stuff like cheese.
As per the name of the shop,
the prata is indeed crispy
but it is not super crispy. But I love love love the way it is. And it is
slightly charred on the outside and soft on the inside. And that gentle
crackling sound when it is cut. Perfect when eating with the accompanying spicy
curry.
I
also like that it is not dripping with
oil. I also like that it is easy to cut the prata with the spoon. I've eaten
prata which is so hard that it is difficult to tear the prata with the
spoon.
I caught the owner Mr Mohgan
smoking when not working. The stall name is Mr and Mrs Mohgan. But that day I
didn't see Mrs Mohgan. Mr Mohgan said she was washing
plates at the back. Haiz so old still need wash plates
themselves.
I asked Mr Mohgan how did he
make his prata so crispy.. He refused to say. I told him that his prata was very
nice. He smiled.
What can I say.. This is
simple food that is done to perfection. Strongly recommended if you are in the
east.
