Rojak Mama - Ministry of Rojak

Venue- Ministry of RojakAddress - 1 Pasir Ris Central Street 3, White Sands Shopping Center, Singapore 518457

Ministry of Rojak

Starters
This time, let us dwell in this uniquely Singapore local cuisine where others tried to mimic but always fell short.
It is nonetheless, the almighty Rojak Mama!

Some call it by any other name e.g. Rojak Fondue etc. but hey.. Don't be trying to act smart in renaming it like how our train provider the SMRT tried with their signage's. #tongueinchick

This place is nicely situated and reachable from anywhere in Singapore. Why? Because it is situated just outside the Pasir Ris MRT station. Beside McDonald to be exact.

Service & Ambiance
The space is a bit tight as it could possibly only sit max 25-27 pax max in one sitting.
Taking orders are self service. 'Dei its Rojak Mama, what do you expect"?

Get the plates + Tongs & load it up

So you will have to get the tongs & plate by the stall side and just start filling it up with whatever you wish.

WARNING! In my years of eating rojak, one thing I learn.
Do not overfill your plate and let gluttony sets in. Dude, trust me this is one common mistake that each and everyone of us has and having food wastage at the end.

Food
To go with the Rojak, I had the Milo panas and my missus had the Teh Tarik. Both were deliciously nice. Ammaak!!

Unfortunately, I didn't realized they too have the Teh "Halia" (Ginger) as well. Darn, I should have ordered that cos there's a table behind us that were swooning over it as they sip the hot Teh Halia. #showoff

The Menu

So, the dish came out after they had to diced it up for awhile, less than 5 minutes. It was garnish with the standard onions and green chilies. I guess in the rojak, what makes or break this dish are the "Kuah Rojak" (Rojak Sauce/ Dips). This dips are what makes the shop sell or fell.

Well, Ministry of Rojak definitely did well in their dips. It wasn't so spicy nor too sweet but yet manage to tingle the taste buds just enough to complement the Rojak itself. 

This is a place that you must try if you are around the area. 

No one mess with the Authority.. Definitely not with the Ministry of Rojak.

Well done!

Best Prata in the East of Singapore! The New Mahamoodiya Restaurant.

New Mahamoodiya Restaurant

Overview

So it's the weekend again where we sometimes wanna have breakfast outside and have some great good to start the day with  your loved ones.

As for me and my family, we headed down to the already famous local culinary area, the ever rustic Simpang Bedok. Now, Simpang Bedok are well known for it's diners during the dinner time, but did you know, there is a nice little place called the New Mahamoodiya Restaurant which is located just by the road?

You wont missed it as it is just beside the SHELL petrol station.

Service & Ambiance

Being a typical Mamak Restaurant, definitely you won't expect something fancy with proper AC and all. But hey, who needs all that when I am there to eat, not viewing some artsy decor?

Seating's are all outdoor and getting a table might be a challenge in the peak hours but it will be worth it.
Just seek the ever helpful "Uncle" if you need a seat, he would help you with one if there are any.

The place could easily sit about 60 pax.

Although it's just next to a petrol kiosk, surprisingly, there are no fume smells. In fact, the trees helped to provide a good shade and its breezy as well.

Food

So I had the 1 Roti Prata kosong and 1 Prata with Egg with a Teh Tarik to suit, You gotta agree this is a great local combo.

My Prata arrives within 5-7 minutes, which is efficient I should say with all that crowd in the morning. It is served with a side curry and some sambal tumis.

Now, this is something that most of our Singapore Prata eateries does not have. The sambal adds more ummphh! and kick to the already savoury curry. Power da dei..!

The Prata itself is so sedap.. The skins are crunchy & crackling whilst the fillings are soft, It is easy to tear them apart and it is easy to chew.
Some Prata are chewy & not too friendly for old folks.

I whacked the Prata in 10 minutes with the Teh Tarik and I am sold... Just take my money!!!

So if you wanna have some nice local breakfast the next time you decide to eat out, drop by this place. It will be worth the effort, even if you have to drive all the way from Jurong.
