11 Best Murtabak Stalls In Singapore

There are also murtabak manis, though these are less commonly found here. Whichever it is you’re looking for, here’s our guide to 11 best murtabak stalls in Singapore.

• 1. Julaiha Muslim Restaurant

Open around the clock daily, Julaiha Muslim Restaurant is a supper spot you should definitely try. The 10-minute walk from Tai Seng MRT Station is worth it when you finally dig into their murtabak, which reviews have commended for its consistent quality.

Many customers order the Mutton (from $8) version, that’s said to be crispy on the outside, with a filling of tender, richly flavoured meat. Another good option is Chicken (from $8), accented with onion. Otherwise, you can try their Sardine (from $7), which goes well with their spicy curry dip.

• 2. Zam Zam Restaurant

Crowd favourite Zam Zam Restaurant is one of the oldest restaurants in Singapore today, since their founding in 1908, with more than 7,000 Google reviews to their name.

They’re open from 7am to 11pm every day, so you could have their murtabak for breakfast and supper. Most murtabak come with standard fillings of mutton, chicken, and such, but at Zam Zam, you’ll be able to order one filled with Deer (from $12) meat, which is said to have a richer, meatier flavour. If you want a more classic choice, go instead for Mutton (from $7), Chicken (from $6), or Tuna (from $9).

Address: 697-699 North Bridge Road, Singapore 198675 Opening hours: Daily 7am to 11pm

Another murtabak restaurant two doors down is Victory Restaurant, which was established in 1910. Just two years younger than Zam Zam, they’re also one of the oldest murtabak restaurants in town.

In the spirit of competition, their murtabak is priced from $5. Here, reviews praise the crispy dough and recommend the Mutton (from $7), loaded with generous fillings of flavourful minced meat and onion.

Alternatively, they have spicy Tuna (from $9). You could even opt for a Mushroom (from $6) murtabak: a recent addition to the menu.

Located in the same area as Zam Zam and Victory Restaurant is Al-Tasneem, another Indian Muslim restaurant whose murtabak is often compared to that at the first two eateries. Their murtabak options start from $6 and come in the usual Beef, Chicken, Mutton, Sardine, Tuna, and Vegetable. Be sure to dip it in their house-made curry gravy for the full experience!

Open till as late as 4am, The Roti Prata House is a great spot for Friday night gatherings. Located directly outside Upper Thomson MRT Station, the restaurant has 14 different murtabak flavours, so there’s definitely something for every taste.

If it’s your first time there, the popular flavours are Mutton Cheese (from $8)—which is said to be stuffed with generous servings of meat, and Tuna (from $9). For the adventurous, you could also have a go at their Pizza Chicken ($13).

Alternatively, they have vegetarian options such as Veg Murtaba (from $6). Have it with their highly raved fish curry that’s said to be tangy and spicy! Address: 246M & 246K Upper Thomson Road, Singapore 574370

• 6. Sin Ming Roti Prata

Further along the Upper Thomson stretch is Sin Ming Roti Prata, which is yet another spot where you can get your murtabak fix. They’re famous for their coin prata, so be prepared to brave long queues at this restaurant. Popular choices here include Mutton (TBD) and Chicken (TBD).

Their murtabak is best paired with fish or mutton curry━the most highly recommended dips online. Address: 24 Sin Ming Road, #01-51, Singapore 570024 Opening hours: Sat-Thurs 6:30am to 6pm

• 7. Mr & Mrs Mohgan Super Crispy Roti Prata

One for the Easties, Mr & Mrs Mohgan Super Crispy Roti Prata is renowned for their popular crispy prata, with waiting times easily surpassing an hour on weekends. Lesser known, but no less tasty, are their murtabak options, of which they have two.

Be sure to head down early as they sell out really quick. If you didn’t know, Mrs Mohgan is the only one running the stall now, after her husband passed away early last year.

Nonetheless, her Mutton ($8) murtabak is still well-reviewed, and stars the same crisp dough as their famous prata. Otherwise, opt for Sardine ($7) if you prefer something with fish.

On the pricier end of things is Casuarina Curry, which has gained recognition for being one of the best prata places in Singapore. Reviews suggest they fare just as well in their murtabak.

Within their extensive menu, a standout item on Casuarina Curry’s Chef’s Innovation series is Ultimate Power Murtabak (from $10.50), which comprises spiced tandoori chicken, mozzarella, and portobello mushroom. Otherwise, their most popular, classic murtabak are Mutton (from $8) and Chicken (from $8). You can also top up $1 to add cheese in your murtabak, or $2 for both cheese and mushrooms.

Nestled among HDB blocks in Jurong, Enaq has been serving crispy prata since 2008. They started selling more interesting prata flavours over the years, but are also known for their unique-looking murtabak that come in triangle wedges.

Although the murtabak here only comes in single-size portions, the servings are said to still be generous. For $5.50, you can get a Cheese murtabak, though their Cheese Mushroom ($7) is the more popular option. Unlike at other murtabak eateries, you can get freshly made sambal to go with your murtabak here!

Like at Enaq, this restaurant also has its own Ultimate Murtabak ($16.90) that serves two; it’s stuffed with tandoori chicken, portobello mushrooms and mozzarella cheese, making it totally worth the calories. For a change, you could also try their Magic Meatless Murtabak ($8.90) which comes loaded with lentils, mushrooms, curry leaves, vegan mayo, and Korean sauce.

Alternatively, go for their bestselling Chicken (from $9.90) murtabak. You can even add on additional toppings such as Mushroom ($1.40), Cheddar ($3.40), and Mozzarella ($3.40).

• 11. Smile Murtabak

For those of us with a sweet tooth, there’s Smile Murtabak, which specialises in using premium ingredients to make sweet murtabak. Unlike the roti prata-like savoury versions, these sweet murtabak are more similar to min jiang kueh.

Try their Ondeh-Ondeh Special, where a thick pandan pancake is stuffed with palm sugar and coconut flakes. Alternatively, go for their Original Choco-Cheese, for pancake spread with melted chocolate and cheddar cheese.

Both of these are now priced at $5.95 each (U.P. $7.45) for fun-sized portions. For durian lovers, they also have Durian murtabak, with prices from $6.65 (U.P. $8.15) for a fun-sized portion. This murtabak stars creamy durian flesh, in your choice of D24 or Mao Shan Wang, sandwiched in a charcoal pancake.
