"Coin prata Where to try it: Sin Ming Roti Prata A meal of roti prata (flaky South Indian flatbread cooked on a griddle) will come highly recommended by most locals. Priced from as little as S$0.70 (US$0.50) for a single piece, the cost is not reflective of roti prata’s skillful preparation: fresh dough twirled, flipped, and folded on a greased griddle. Orders can be customized depending on what’s offered: Crack an egg in it or add unconventional toppings like cheese, chocolate, and even Milo powder. For the uninitiated, Sin Ming Roti Prata’s signature coin prata (six for S$4, or US$3) is one of the best choices. Thicker than a regular prata, it is flipped, folded, and rolled from a single piece of handmade dough. Served with a side dish of curry sauce, the prata’s extra crispy yet pillow-soft texture is what keeps regulars waiting patiently for their fix—sometimes for as long as 30 minutes."
