The portion were huge! I ordered beef biryani, the meat was juicy and tender, I liked it! Then we also ordered beef murtabak, which also had a huge portion! For drink, I ordered katira, which unexpectedly very nice, it's unique but not too strong.
Apparently, there's also second floor here. I think it's better to pay cash here, since if you use visa/mastercard, there's an additional charge.
My friend recommended this restaurant, and I can say Iโm 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 ๐5/5
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 ๐5/5
Definitely the best dish! I loved the masala curry, it was a bit spicy and super delicious.
Deer Murtabak ๐5/5
The portion was huge, haha! I really liked the dipping sauce, it went perfectly with the murtabak.
Teh Tarik ๐ 4/5
Just right, though a little too sweet for me.
The portions are sooo big, Iโd suggest sharing with friends, three meals can easily feed four to five people. They also donโt charge if you want to take away the leftovers. Definitely will come back here!
Visited here at the recommendation of a bartender, did not disappoint! I got the mutton bryiani & lime juice for SGD$12.50. They do not accept AMEX, so have SGD or another credit card ready. Nice view of the Sultan Mosque temple. Glad I was able to experience it & the portion was large, I was unable to finish it all.
Located at the main road, you can order and pickup from the roadside in advance. There are 2 floors, with the upper one aircon. It was recommended when we had a tour near this area. Ordered Deer meat mutabak and tulang merah to eat in and take away their famous fish head curry. The roti is crispy since it is freshly made but the mince deer meat very dry. Tulang merah is done well with the meat easily peeled off from the bone. Also the tulang merah(translated red blood in bone) can be easily sip with a straw. The packed fish head curry was told it can only feed 2-3 pax so we bought 2 since we have 6 pax to feed. It was disappointing as we ate the sand feeling in our mouth from the fish stomach area. Thus the cleaning was not done properly. 6 pax managed to finished only one portion and that we donโt have other additional ingredients. So buying 2 was way too much. Overall, food was disappointing due to the high expectations and hype for this shop.
This spot was absolutely zamming. We came here around brunch time, and there were a few open tables inside. We split an iced Milo (tasty) and a chicken murtabak, the signature dish here. The murtabak was a big eggy pancake stuffed with flavorful chicken, and provided with two delicious dipping sauces. The chicken was generally tender, but not particularly juicy - not a problem as the dips provide all the requisite moisture, and the dish shines with all elements working in concert. An institution for good reason and certainly worth visiting. Zam it up!
