AL-JALAL BY Habib’s Rojak

The mutton biryani has its fans, and a handful of regulars swear by the late-night experience when food arrives hot and staff are more generous.

But the problems here are hard to overlook.

Pricing is a genuine concern: a plain tissue prata has reportedly been charged at $5 — more than double what it appears to cost elsewhere — and the price board has apparently been removed or obscured, making it difficult to verify what you owe.

Pre-made pratas sitting cold behind the counter during off-peak hours is another consistent complaint, with staff reluctant to reheat on request.

Order accuracy on takeaway is patchy, and a food poisoning report tied to the mee goreng adds a hygiene flag that can't be dismissed lightly.

The $7 chicken biryani delivers small portions and inconsistent preparation.

There is a version of this stall that works — but it requires the right time of day and the right staff on shift.

Best for late-night regulars who know the menu well enough to order defensively.

First-timers should approach with caution and verify prices before ordering.
