Mr & Mrs Moghan are prata aristocracy, and I simply had to try them given that they were now within range of my sweatshop. I’ve heard years worth of praise for their prata, so I had to get the trifecta of hits: plain, plaster, and cheese & onion.⠀
⠀
Not gonna lie, it’s just above average. Sure, they’re competently crispy, but it is positively dripping in grease. In fact, there was so much oil that the USA invaded my plate to spread democracy (thanks, Joe Biden). While they might be on par with Springleaf, the Moghans get utterly blown away by the colossus that is Chindamani.⠀

The plaster was serviceably appetising, with a fried egg cooked into the prata dough. It possesses a delightful dough to crisp ratio, but my arteries were squeezing in protest as the oil trickled from the fried dough. Same goes for the plain prata, but the cheese & onion was a regret. What seems to be a slice of Kraft cheese is plopped atop a smattering of chopped onions, and that’s all she wrote. The cheese didn’t add any sapidity, only an unnecessary creamy richness.⠀
⠀
The real standout here is that marvellous mutton curry. It’s poignantly piquant thanks to the mutton that’s been cooked into the curry, and the mellow spiciness aided in tempering the greasiness of the prata. Just a little bit, but every little bit matters here.⠀

While my review might seem a bit harsh on the Moghans, I would like to clarify that it’s a decent prata place. It just isn’t among the top prata palaces in Singapore.
