Just ate here again after maybe over 15 years and their mutton murtabak and curry (comes together) still taste the same as it used to ☺️ The $12 portion is perfectly filling for 2 average eaters to share. Still very delicious and comforting; it’s layers are filled with a great amount of minced onions and minced mutton and the top outer layer has lots of minced mutton that has been cooked till parts of them are crispy. Still doesn’t feel oily. My only suggestion to make this meal perfect would be to cut the cucumbers thicker so that it adds the crunchy and refreshing element to the meal.

A well-known and well-liked spot amongst locals, especially the Malay community, and a must-try local spot for anyone visiting Singapore.

It’s busy most times, the ground-level looks humble and it’s kind of nice that they kept it that way; I’d rather the money go to paying their staff well and getting in good ingredients and maintaining the place. The upper level is made to look more like a restaurant and is air-conditioned but still has a casual atmosphere as there are lots of simple tables and chairs and you a range of groups of families or friends, to couples and individuals dining. Depending on where you’re seated and how okay you are with densely packed dining places, you might feel a bit cramped. It can get too loud if a large group with a lot of kids are present too. It is truly a casual spot and a good place to sit and eat and experience a bit of Singapore.

It was my second time trying to place - the price has increased significantly but fortunately the portion size was reasonable.

We ordered one Maggi goreng with a sunny side up, one Maggi goreng ikan bilis, one kway teow goreng, some fried chicken and a chicken murtabak. The food was served within less than 20 minutes.

Both Maggi goreng was acceptable but the Kway Teow goreng was a little salty. Of all, the murtabak was the best. The fried chicken was too dry - appeared to be pre-fried, reheated upon order.

Best chicken murtabak I’ve had in Singapore and I’ve had a few. The Prata is good too. The curry is excellent and has a good level of spice hit.

Me and my mate had the following and all were great:
Murtabak Chicken
Prata Plain
Prata Cheese
Limau Ice
Teh Halia

Service was good for a busy dinner time.

My friend recommended this restaurant, and I can say I’m in love with Zam Zam! The first time we entered, the staff greeted us with a smile and suggested we go to the 2nd floor for a more comfortable area with air conditioning. We only waited about 5 minutes before all the food and drinks were served. I could easily communicate with the staff in Malay.

Mutton Lamb Briyani 🌟5/5
The briyani rice was perfect not too sticky and the mutton curry matched so well with it. The lamb was tender and easy to eat.

Chicken Masala 🌟5/5
Definitely the best dish! I loved the masala curry, it was a bit spicy and super delicious.

Deer Murtabak 🌟5/5
The portion was huge, haha! I really liked the dipping sauce, it went perfectly with the murtabak.

Teh Tarik 🌟 4/5
Just right, though a little too sweet for me.

The portions are sooo big, I’d suggest sharing with friends, three meals can easily feed four to five people. They also don’t charge if you want to take away the leftovers. Definitely will come back here!

Food 4/5, service 5/5, atmosphere 3/5
We already had lunch but heard of this place so decided to check it out and try some light ‘snack’. We had the chicken korma and vege murtabak. The chicken korma was good, the dhal that came w the murtabak was great. Btw I don’t expect the presentation to be great but it would be better. Lol. I particularly found it weird that they put fries in the vegetarian murtabak? (Not bad different but just surprised). Overall I’ll definitely return to try other dishes.
