puri?

Yesterday after meeting, Reuben drove us to a nearby coffeeshop for lunch. So we were looking for somewhere that no need pay so much for carpark (read: no shopping complexes), somewhere other than canteen and hawker food price (read: below $4).

Anyway, I think we were at Toa Payoh somewhere. This coffeeshop have 4 stalls only. One nasi padang stall, one drinks stall (with kopi-cino and ice blends no less!), one western food (but not open) and one prata stall. So I went to get food from prata stall.

Decided to get the puri set. Because, I don't know what is puri, never tasted before so wanted to try. Got the mutton puri set for $3. Someone else tried butter prata (but quite expensive @$2 per piece although its big)

According to Zak, puri is chappati fried. Cool, it looked a bit like naan but with oil ('coz fried!). The puri set comes with 2 puris (bigger than usual prata kosong), 1 potato masala (side dish) and mutton curry. The potato masala was nice, mutton curry was tender and puri tasty and sweet on its own. Very nice, didn't disappoint. I'd recommend this set to everyone! (who can take mutton) Value for $$

The coffeeshop is just beside MUIS (Majlis Ugama Islam Singapore), so it should be at 1 Lorong 6 Toa Payoh.
