Tried the Paratha shop in Suntec recently – honestly, quite disappointing. The taste of the food doesn't meet even basic expectations for Indian cuisine. It's worth noting that although it's the only outlet in Auntec serving "Indian food," it doesn’t really feel authentic or true to Indian flavors.
One major letdown was the pricing – the food is quite costly considering both the quality and the portion size. It feels overpriced for what you get.
What really sealed the bad experience for me was finding a plastic thread in the rasam. That raised serious concerns about hygiene and food safety.
Overall, I wouldn't recommend it unless you're really out of options and craving something remotely Indian – just set your expectations very low.

WORSE teh tarik ever. first of all, no tarik at all, secondly, it taste like water with a little bit of milk. not sweet, no tarik-FAIL AND HORRIBLE. drank one mouth and it’s going straight to the bin

Recommended coin prata, crispy and texture is nice. Mutton Murtabak is mediocre, the dice mutton is so small and scarce, definitely a let down. Chicken curry is average, mutton curry sold out in the evening. Next time will try mutton curry with coin prata

Thanks for the Eye contact which brought me to the delicious prata and chickpeas! The sweetness of teh tarik is just nice and strong tea fragrance.
Thank you for the staff with the recommendation of Coin Prata. 🤤🤤🤤

I've been eating here for a while for lunch and dinner
The crew is very friendly
I love the vegan veggie biryani and masala thosai
The thosai I got today was the best I ever had in my life
🥰

If you are visiting Suntec city and wanted to have Indian prata with best taste go for this shop at basement 1 food republic food court. They too have vegetarian gravy. The price is almost same as most of the shops outside. It’s only shop near by to have Indian food. They too have other meal varieties.

Get a dose of some South Indian food here. Prata, Dosa or Thosai. The prata here is crispy and it’s like having chips.
Service is alright. Food is delicious.
