Welcome to Joo Chiat. Looking for Cheap & Good places?

Whenever I find myself in Joo Chiat in the morning, I’m always spoilt for choice. But one dish usually reigns supreme—Mr and Mrs Mohgan’s Super Crispy Prata.

As the name suggests, the crisp factor is unreal, and trust me, one is never enough. My go-to order? A kosong + telur combo. The default comes with fish curry, but here’s a pro tip: ask for a side of sambal with ikan bilis. The combination of fish curry + sambal with prata? Absolutely next-level comfort food.

We were strolling in Joo Chiat and saw them open. It was a surprise but we just ordered two slices. Still very good to me, but the fiancee felt the standard has dropped since Mr Mohgan passed away.

You know your food is going to be good when the Vietnamese servers start taking your orders quite angrily 😂 and true enough the food here we had was very decent and definitely above average! It was an authentic experience as well as there were Vietnamese people dining around us!

To me, the Vietnamese Spring Rolls ($10) are a must order, as the crispy outer shell is just so inviting. The ones here are quite huge, and I'm glad they were stuffed with quite abit of pork meat. Pair them with the sweet chilli sauce and you got yourself a wonderful side 😍

The Rare Beef Noodle Soup ($9.50) was really comforting and the broth flavour was quite deep! Noodles were cooked just right and beef slices were tender. This is one hearty soup to have on rainy days! The portion was big as well.

Their Beef Stew with Baguette ($10) is also a must order. The beef cubes were really tender, and it was SO flavourful. It was both sweet and savoury and it was such a good stew to just dip the bread in. Speaking of which, the baguette or banh mi was perfectly baked; crispy on the outside and fluffy within. Give me that and the stew and I will be a happy man.

Dishes mentioned above are recommended! The rest were okay. I'm definitely coming back here if I'm around in the joo chiat region!

Back to Mr and Mrs Mohgan's for their crispy prata. Although missing Mr Mohgan now, their prata is still as crispy as before. Everything else feels the same. Pratas are crispy on the outside, stretchy and fluffy on the inside. I always go for the fish curry but I noticed they don't serve homemade sambal anymore.

Mr & Mrs Mohgan Super Crispy Roti Prata!

One of the crispiest prata in Singapore! Have eaten this countless times, and still not sick of it! My favourite prata brunch to have along the Joo Chiat Road stretch!

We visited on a late Saturday morning (around 9.45am), and it took almost 45 minutes for the food to be served!

I super love how they can make the prata so crispy! Even the Egg prata! Usually egg prata elsewhere are all soggy and soft, but this was sooo crispy! Ask for fish curry here (if you do not like lamb curry like me)!

Tip: Head straight to order the prata when you arrive! Find seats ONLY after you have ordered your prata!

I was around Joo Chiat on weekend and found out there’s wasn’t any customer in front of this shop, unlike previously in the past few years when I’m there; which used to be lots of people waiting for their orders to be call.

Since there’s no one there, of course I would want to grab this opportunity to try their popular popiah; which is freshly made upon order.

Generous ingredients inside and the popiah skin taste excellent as well. Recommended to consume it within the day itself.

plain, egg (2pcs)

Mee Pok (Dry)

Wanton Noodle (Dry)

Special Noodle Soup

Spring Rolls

If only I have a bigger appetite and will not gain weight while eating so much, I could have ordered both for myself. Nonetheless, both noodle dishes are equally delish.
