Al-Azhar Eating Restaurant (Tampines)

Pretty average dum briyani but good enough to satisfy any briyani cravings you might have. Basmati rice was fragrant, and while portion was huge, the chicken was a tad bit dry. Really enjoyed the raita which was very light and refreshing.

Rate:🌟🌟

And I had both.
What’s worse - it is your one rare prata meal.
Al-Azhar, what happened?? You used to be my go to! Service is bad, it’s overpriced for room temperature prata, and you don’t even care when I asked for no straw!
I’m just going to pretend this meal didn’t happen.
Bah humbug 🤬😤☹️

It’s the first time that I chanced upon “sesame” Naan. Ordered it and was pleasantly surprised that it was a simple freshly made Naan with a generous serving of toasted sesame seeds. Fragrant and delicious.

Hands down, this is one of the best naan I've tasted by far. Dish was served pipping hot within 10 minutes despite the crowd. The naan was fluffy and soft on the inside but crispy and toasty on the outside. Portion is big (as seen in picture, that's actually one piece of naan being cut into two).

The Butter Chicken's gravy was extremely rich, creamy and savoury. It came with at least six chunks of chicken meat which was surprisingly tender. Anyway don't judge a book by its cover. The bowl may look small but it was sufficient enough to be shared among 2 pax. And although it may look pretty red, it is only mildly spicy and it goes really well with the naan.

I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS COMBINATION.

Dipping sauce was rich, tasty, mildly spiced with lots of peanut. The prawn fritter is one of the must try! 🦐 .
