Al-Meerasa

Reliable old Al Meerasa. I’ve been coming here ever since I was in elementary school. This 24 hours mamak have always been up and running even at the oddest of hours. I mean it’s supposed to anyways right? But what I realise is that, even in the late hours, the workers here are still attentive. Well that is, if it’s not too packed. Then you would need to wait a good 10 minutes before you can place your order.
They set up the chairs outside at the parking lot and put up a big screen for them football fanatics. But there isn’t any overhead roof or anything. So I’d suggest you sit inside if it looks like it’s going to rain. And should you sit outside, you might have a slight problem waving down the waiters. Especially if it’s proper packed.
What I would usually get here is their Chicken Tandoori and Cheese Naan. They cook the naan perfectly in my opinion. Their not stingy with the cheese and the bread isn’t burnt, unlike some mamaks. However, the best dish here has got to be the Roti Canai. You see, the perfect Roti Canai is when it is crusty on the outside by soft in the inside. And when you serve it, the bread should still be fresh and hot. Top it of with delicious fish curry, dal and sambal. What could be better?
It’s the type of mamak, where you can rely on getting mamak food even in the oddest of hours. You can count on them to be well stocked. The cleanliness of the place however, is respectable to say the least. What you’d expect of a mamak. So come here for good old Malaysian food and to watch the game. The prices are reasonable enough for you to sit for hours and just order up everything.
