Okay, heard from friends that the murtabak at zam zam is very
good, so decided to try when i was walking around haji lane. Don't
know if there are other Zam Zam outlets around Singapore
though.
Anyway, the place is like nothing different from your normal
indian/muslim foodstall, or coffeeshop for that manner. Quite hot,
lucky there are sufficient wall fans to keep things from getting
to0 humid. Quick service, the guy cleared our table in one go
(there must have been around 10 big plates left by the previous
diners) and took our order at the same time. Ordered a normal sized
murtabak ($5) and green tea. Less than a minute later the guy
arrived with a big saucer of curry and a plate of, erm, appetisers?
Cucumber slices with ketchup. 5 minutes later, just awhile after i
and my gf finished the cucumber, the murtabak came.
This is the funny part. Normal murtabak is served in a nice square,
right? This one came....erm i also dont know how to described. It
was all shredded, torn, tossed about like a salad. I think the chef
fluffed it with his hands like how they fluff prata. Anyway the
plus side to this is it was easier to eat! The murtabak was crispy,
the onions were crunchy, and the chicken was delicious. Well
marinated and tender. And the serving is generous. They totally
don't scrimp on the chicken meat. And drink something like tea or
similar to cleanse the palate as the murtabak is abit oily
lah.
Oh well that's about it. Thanks for taking the time to read.
