Papa cafe has been my go-to spot whenever I’m craving prata and teh tarik. The prata always comes out fresh and crispy, never sitting around, and the fish curry hits every time. Definitely one of my comfort food places.
There’s so many things to be said. First off, the food tasted really bad. I ordered roti john, maggie goreng, samosas, tea and nasi lemak. The bread used for the roti john was stale and it could have been a 10 days old baguette. The nasi lemak was fine because it wasn’t made in house, but to add on one single piece of chicken leg was $5 and it wasn’t even cooked properly. The maggie goreng was not even hot and it was quite bland. I never knew that its even possible to mess up a maggie goreng. I also said that I didn’t want the add on egg and my mom also said the same information but the cashier still managed to key it in wrongly and had to be corrected again. Additionally waiting time was also quite funny, he served the mains first before the samosa, but the samosas were already ready on display. Wow, what a crazy experience and the table was also dirty! I rarely give 1 star reviews but I wish I could give a zero star rating. First and last time eating here!
