Casuarina Curry (Thomson)

Here's an improved version of your review with better flow, grammar, and clarity: I’m really impressed by the wide variety of food and prata options here – they even have an Egg Benedict prata, which is such a creative and unexpected touch for a prata spot. To me, what truly sets a great prata place apart is the curry. I’ve been to plenty of prata joints over the years, and most have mastered the art of making perfect prata with that classic, authentic quality. This place is no exception – the prata itself is excellent. That said, the curries fell a little short of my expectations and could use more depth of flavor. Even with the busy crowd, the staff were incredibly friendly, prompt, and helpful. I’d definitely make a point to come back when I’m in the area.

One of the best Indian food spots around Thomson. My dad used to bring our whole family here for breakfast we’ve been coming for almost 30 years. Now that I’m a father myself, I still bring my own family here for Sunday lunch. Parking is free on Sundays, which is a bonus. The food has always been consistently tasty and never fails us. However, I would like to highlight some hygiene concerns. The cloth the waiters use to wipe the tables has turned yellow over time it might be better to change the cloth more frequently. The hand-washing basin is also dirty, and the toilet needs more regular cleaning. Hope these can be improved, as we really enjoy the food and wish to keep coming back.

Nice crispy prata.... The place is nice to chill and just enjoy the breeze.... Seat outside for the open air breeze. Inside got heavy curry smell.

From 4-5 star I am reviewing now to only less than 2 stars. Waited 25 mins for my mutton meehoon goreng and the fried egg is cold. Not good for the service at lunch time. Came for bf today and saw the boss working behind the counter packing the prata! Really setting a good example! Prata at bf has standard! So back to 4 stars!

It is wonderful to see how the establishment continues to thrive, even after a long absence. The quality of the food remains exceptional, as many have come to expect. It is clear that this is a popular spot, given the high volume of patrons present. The consistent excellence of the food has clearly kept the customers coming back. Therefore, it's a delightful experience.

The food was okay but environment was super hectic! There’s only one queue for ordering and paying at the entrance so everyone is crowding there to order. Pretty full area. Masala tea was way too spicy IMO. Vegetable dish was nice. Thosai was not bad as it’s made upon order so it’s fresh. But overall kinda stressful to dine here :( Location not too convenient as not near MRT or bus stop

Crispy and tasty prata, made fresh so they tasted very good. One of the best pratas I have eaten in Singapore. The accompanying fish and chicken curry was just alright.
