Thanks to you, we have narrowed it down to these 14 places that have the best reviews and very possibly, the best prata around. Whether for breakfast or supper, pick a place near you to satisfy your ravenous cravings. We know you want to.

1. D’Rubinah Restaurant

Garnering hordes of loyal fans that come here for the inexpensive and unpretentious food, D’Rubinah is the people’s choice of the best roti prata in the Sembawang district. It comes as no surprise because the prata served here is crispy and non-greasy. The highlight of the dish is the mini bowl of curry that is served on the side. Frequent customers of D’Rubinah also rave about their Biryani and Mee Goreng. D’Rubinah Restaurant, 592 Sembawang Road, Singapore 758451 Image: Openrice user, CookiesNCream

2. Ali Khan Restaurant

Roti Canai is essentially called Roti Prata in Singapore and this traditional Mamak stall in the Macpherson area is dubbed one of the best around. A simple plain or egg prata coupled with their meat curries is a perfect balance of flavours. Have their pratas with some Indian Rojak for a variety of flavours.

3. Mr and Mrs Mohgan's Super Crispy Roti Prata

Having been described as ‘manna from heaven’ by critics, we deem Mr and Mrs Mohgan worthy of being of one the top roti prata stalls in Singapore. The pratas sold at this humble corner in the Joo Chiat area is true to its name – super crispy. The pratas are also non-greasy as they are all made fresh on the spot for the customers. Take your pick from a wide selection of curries, from Dhal to Mutton or Fish curry.

4. Thasevi Food

Thasevi has been around for more than five decades and offers arguably one of the best roti pratas in the north. Although many are displeased with their slight increase of prices, their roti pratas are still of the same standard and taste. Try their fresh egg pratas with chicken curry, a favourite choice among the patrons of Thasevi. For an alternative or add-on, order a plate of Indian-style Mee Goreng or warm Tulang Soup, which are also bestsellers here.

5. Casuarina Curry

Casuarina Curry was opened 23 years ago and has stayed as one of Singapore’s most iconic prata restaurants ever since. They have a large range of different pratas including garlic and chicken floss variations. Have their crispy prata with a side of delicious chicken tandoori that some say is the best they ever had.

6. Al-Falah Restaurant

The best thing about roti prata is its pocket-friendly price tag, making it perfect to consume at any time. Al-Falah serves up piping hot and freshly made prata that surprisingly goes well with sambal (we think you should try it!) Have their pratas with homemade the Tarik and you’re set for a satisfying meal that will cost you less than $5!

7. The Roti Prata House

This is arguably the best prata house in Upper Thomson and they serve up roti pratas from only $0.90! Offering a wide variety of pratas, a popular choice is their Egg & Cheese Prata ($2.50). If you are looking for more than just pratas, The Roti Prata House also has other hearty options such as Maggi Goreng and Chicken Biryani.

8. Al-Azhar

If you find yourself spoilt for choice along Cheong Chin Nam Road, why not pop down to Al-Azhar for some crispy and piping hot prata? They even serve up paper-thin Tissue prata, Murtabak and Thosai. We recommend their Cheese Prata that is made with mozzarella cheese instead of regular cheese. Al-Azhar, 11 Cheong Chin Nam Road, Singapore 599736 Image: Openrice user, whyjayxp

9. Al-Ameen

Renowned for its especially delicious curry that pairs up perfectly with their curry, Al-Ameen is one of the many prata houses at Bukit Timah that we feel is one of the best. They also serve up naan and other variations of prata such as pothina, which is a mint flavoured prata that will leave mint-lovers wanting more.

10. RK Eating House

This is probably the most popular spot on Kensington Park Road. Since the restaurant is always packed, try their Plaster Prata – a sunny side up egg on top of a plain prata— made to order. If you prefer having other flavours, go for their generously portioned cheese prata accompanied with mutton curry.

11. New Victory Restaurant

Although New Victory is well-known for their murtabaks, their pratas are just as good too. Unlike other stalls, they do not have many choices of pratas but the classic plain and egg version served here is the best you can find in Arab Street. Other popular dishes here include their Nasi Pattaya – Indian-style fried rice wrapped with an egg omelette.

12. Haji K. Abdul Rehuman

It is hard for prata dishes to be the star in the menu of so many different foods but for the Cheese Prata at Haji K.Abdul Rehuman, it beats everything else. Fluffy and crispy, the cheese inside is melted, making it extra savoury and delicious. Haji K.

13. Mr Teh Tarik Eating House

For just $1.30, you can get an egg prata with a side of curry. Being true to its name, the prata here is best eaten with a cup of Teh Tarik that completes your meal. Mr Teh Tarik Eating House, Blk 846 Yishun Ring Road, #01-3603, Singapore 760846 Image: Openrice user, hoohuiqin

14. Syed Restaurant

With 4 restaurants islandwide, you can get your prata craving satisfied conveniently. They have a large menu but we suggest just ordering their pratas. Go for the classics and get their plain one as it is served freshly made and dip it with some of their tasty curry for an added heat and enhanced flavour.
