Our take: Thasevi Food, a long-standing name in Jalan Kayu, appears to be in a period of fluctuating standards, though recent reviews suggest a comeback in their prata quality.
We note that the prata is frequently praised for being crispy, thin, and flaky, with a good curry accompaniment.
The Murtabak, priced at $8, is highlighted for its well-executed, fluffy layers and choice of fillings like minced mutton or shredded chicken.
However, there are consistent complaints about service, with specific mentions of staff being arrogant or inattentive.
The quality of other items like the 'kanbing soup' and plain bread has also been called into question.
While the prata seems to be regaining its former glory, the overall experience might be hit-or-miss due to service issues and inconsistent quality across the menu.
We'd recommend focusing solely on the prata and Murtabak for the best experience, and be prepared for potentially indifferent service.

What customers say
Thasevi Food is praised for its prata, with many noting a recent return to high standards, featuring crispy, flaky dough and thick curry.
The Murtabak, especially the mutton version, is also well-regarded for its tender meat and flavorful execution.
However, customer experience is significantly marred by reports of rude and inattentive staff, including a manager, and inconsistent quality of other items like bread and Kanbing soup.

Prata is really good here. The bread that I paid for ($1.50) looks old and not even toasted and warmed. Quite disappointing. Kanbing soup is below average. Suggest ti just eat the prata will do.
