Sin Ming Roti Prata – This Neighbourhood Coffee Shop Stall Sells One of the Best Prata in Singapore

This prata stall is not a stranger to many of you. Even though it is located at an unassuming corner of a neighbourhood coffee shop, it still has a snaking queue.

Sin Ming Roti Prata started in 1933 when Almali Faisal’s grandfather arrived in Singapore from India and started selling prata by the streets. When their father, Haji Mohammed, took over, he set up shop in Cluny Road before moving to the current location in Sin Ming in 1993.

Despite the overwhelming demand, Sin Ming Roti Prata still makes their dough fresh daily. I was really looking forward to this meal even though I was watching my diet.

The signature Coin Prata set ($4 for 6) requires a longer waiting time than the other pratas even though it is kosong (containing nothing). This is because the dough has to be flipped, divided into 3, and rolled into round coin-shaped dough by hands. On the other hand, the others only need to be flipped and folded. Even on the grill, the coin prata takes longer to be done as it is thicker.

But let me tell you, the coin prata is definitely worth the wait! It was extremely crispy and fragrant on the outside, but gives way to a soft and chewy centre. Surprisingly, it comes with some sweetness too. Pairing it with the savoury Mutton Curry ($6) was delightful.

Since orders are constantly being delivered, you don’t have to worry that your prata has been left on the shelf. Fresh piping hot prata is what you will receive. The Plain Prata ($1) was slightly flaky and crispy, and a tad chewy. The Egg Prata ($1.60) was quite eggy because Sin Ming Roti Prata spread the egg evenly on the dough. Overall, Sin Ming Roti Prata’s pratas are on the sweeter side, which is great for me because I enjoy both the savouriness and sweetness together. The Fish Curry ($3) is also a must-order!

Sin Ming Roti Prata now holds a spot in my top 3 favourite prata places! Sadly, it operates till 7pm only, so for supper go-ers like myself, I guess I will have to wake up early to enjoy this! And I will!
