Casuarina Curry : An award-winning authentic prata restaurant

Hey guys it’s me again with a new post. Hope you guys are good and eating delicious food too. Today I will be introducing Indian food.  

This restaurant is called “Casuarina Curry” located at Upper Thomson area and it has a new branch open at MacPherson Road.  I guess you guys must be thinking that the restaurant introduce must be some normal prata restaurant, but tell you guys other than prata here also sell stuffs like mee goreng and nasi goreng. I had never eaten at this restaurant, but whenever we drive by the area there seems to be large crowd here. So on Friday night, we decided to give this restaurant a try. When we reach, we went in to find some seat and sit down. 

No after a while the menu was handed to us by the waiter which was quite fast I can say for them to realize we are there. While we browsing, I was tempted to try their mee goreng.  Because I tried a lot of mee goreng but none met to my expectations. My brother ordered the thosai while my mum order murtabak and my dad ordered nasi goreng. We also ordered the mutton soup and two teh tarik to try whether it’s nice. I noticed something the waiter was not actually looking at us or even writing down our orders. My dad was puzzled and asks him if he could remember everything, he says he can.

So we waited to see if he actually remembers, to our amazed he did get our orders wrong when serving up our foods. Finally my mee goreng arrive, the one I order is spicy one. Just to mention there has an additional egg too, I have never seen mee goreng with egg before. I have my first taste of the mee goreng I can say it’s well cooked. The spiciness of the mee goreng I can say is quite a mid-to-high level. If you are not good spicy eater, please order a non-spicy one. I am trying to save you here haha. The thosai, murtabak and nasi goreng are nice too. There is also a prata called “paper prata”, we did not try it but it looks great.  You guys should try it if you actually visit the restaurant.  There are also a lot of other types of prata, mee and rice. So you guys do not need to worry about the variety of foods here.

That is all for the post do go and try the food here. I can promise you guys will not regret on choosing here as a dining place. See you and bye!!! Look out for my next post.

Haja Maideen Mee Stall

Aizuddin here bringing you my very first food review. The stall that I'm going to review is the Haja Maideen Mee Stall. Situated ABC at Brickworks Food Centre, Blk 6 Jalan Bukit Merah, it sells mainly noodle dishes, notably Mee Goreng. A quick history about the stall. The stall has been operating at Brickworks since the 80s. It is still run by the same owner and his 2 partners. My dad who used to live around the area when he was still a child and always bought Mee Goreng from the stall. Till today, the stall owner is able to recognise my dad after so many years.

 Now back to the review. When my family and I went there, the place was not really crowded since most people order takeout or if you prefer the Singlish term tapau. I ordered Mee Goreng  and in less than 5 minutes I was served. As you can see, it doesn't use any fancy cutlery or plates. Instead, only disposable styrofoam plates with plastic fork and spoons. At first glance it might look like your typical dish but like they say - never judge a book by its cover. I can't really describe how good the dish is. It's just really good. For those who can't stand spicy food, rest assured that the dish isn't spicy at all. However if you are those that can't get enough of chili, just remember to ask to add chili when ordering.

And that's the end of my review. So if you happen to be around the Bukit Merah area do come by.

Price: $3.00
