This is decent, with the chicken being super tender, bordering moist and dry, and having decent sweet savoury spice notes.
.
However, the briyani rice was rather muted in taste, and lacks the side of egg.

Named after the iconic holy water, they've been serving some of the best murtabak in Singapore for over a century (since 1908).

This has layers of crisp folded dough with egg, generously sprinkled with tender minced beef. Bold meaty savoury salty eggy flavours, so good.

Back to zam zam to try their Biryani instead and was very impressed. The chicken Biryani ($6.50) had a huge quarter chicken and was pleasantly flavourful. The beef Biryani ($6.50) was even more impressive, with its huge tender, succulent beef chunk. The beef may not be reddish, but it does contain a spicy kick!
Yes, Zam Zam may feel like one of those "tourist trap" places that get by on past reputation, but I assure you their 𝗺𝘂𝘁𝘁𝗼𝗻 𝗺𝘂𝗿𝘁𝗮𝗯𝗮𝗸 is good as ever.

The skin was fluffy with a bit of crisp, which perfectly wrapped around the stunningly flavourful filling. The mutton was juicy and exploded with umami, with a tasteful injection of gameyness that blended harmoniously with the spices and the sharpness from the onions. Some places get it too dry or too oily, but this had just the perfect amount.
