Texture is perfect, crispy on the outside but tender inside. Well worth the hype :)
Arrived at 11.30am on a Sunday and the wait was long! We were lucky to be able to place our order - shortly after our order was made, Mr & Mrs Mohgan stopped taking in more orders. It was abt 12pm by then?
Indeed crispy out, fluffy in kinda prata. Also, very cheap! Breakdown of our prata spend: Plain $1, đ„ $1.50, đ§ đ§
$2.50
I recall itâs approx $1.20 for plain, $1.60/$1.80 for egg at so-so prata places in my neighbourhood...
This is worth the wait if you can afford the time. Otherwise, there are other places in close fight with significantly reduced waiting time but at a slightly higher price point I guess?
Nicely crisped exterior, with a slight soft centre, yet easily pulled apart â this is how I define a good prata. I was really looking forward to try the crispy prata from Mr and Mrs Mohgan, and I got the plain ones. They were delightful. Hot and crispy, and flaky at some parts. The Assam curry was light but not watered down, and lingers on my tongue too. A good prata curry shouldnât mask the taste of the prata.
(My friend gave me a coin prata to try and it was slightly sweet with a soft whiff of margarine. Maybe I will try it next time!)
We waited close to an hour for our prata from 11am, and the prata sells out by 12pm on a Saturday afternoon.
Finally visited this much-talked-about prata shop in the east on our day off. Waited for around 30 mins on a weekday afternoon just before the lunch crowd hit. The highlight of our order is the egg prata as you can really taste the thick layer of egg within. Other than that, the coin prata is worth ordering too, but the plain prata is mediocre at best. The biggest disappointment is the âcurryâ that comes with our order. Itâs a mix of dhal and (what I guess is) chicken curry, which I donât mind, but the taste is so bland I rather have the prata plain. I actually requested for fish curry but they didnât serve me that. A few days ago I saw someone posted about similar experience and suggested getting the mutton curry instead (maybe next time!). And yes, another unpopular opinion but I definitely wonât travel nor queue for this.
I could very well be the last person in Singapore to try âMr & Mrs Mohganâs famous crispy prata đ And my first visit wasnât even planned. It was a spontaneous decision after I found my favourite âJoo Chiat Ah Huat Wanton Noodlesâ in the basement of Dunman Food Centre closed.
One of the items I ordered was the Coin Prata (an order has six pieces) and it was outrageously crispy. Each small swirl of slightly flattened dough was fried to a gorgeous golden-brown, and when I pressed down on it with my cutlery, it broke into thick, flaky chunks that were crunchy yet still slightly chewy in the middle of the folds. Amazing. Considering I tend to gravitate towards the cushiony style of Prata (which is why my default is an Egg Prata with Green Chillies), I was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed this. Will definitely return soon for more.
Mr and Mrs mohgan super crispy roti prata again! This is my second time back here after they moved to the coffeeshop beside dunman hawker centre. It was around a 20mins wait even on a weekday morning! Crispy prata as always and it isn't super hard /chaotah. Plain prata here costs only $1/piece! Always wanted to try the coin prata but after seeing the price of $5 (because 5 coin prata are given and I guess the same amount of dough is used) , I always change my mind to just the plain pratas haha. they serve fish curry and mutton curry here! Since I didn't like the smell of mutton, have always opted for the fish curry!
