Calling all night owls! If you’re looking for a nice supper place to grab some chow, you can visit the 24-hour Mr. Teh tarik cartel!

24-hour eateries are not that common here. So when one opens, it always excites me. (even when McDonald’s did it, it made me so happy.) recently, a new Mr. Teh tarik cartel outlet opened at Tiong Bahru Plaza. I have eagerly paid a few visits ever since.

As the name suggests, you can find teh tarik here plus a gazillion other drinks. There’s Milo Dinosaur, teh halia (ginger tea), various ice blended drinks, just to name a few. Read my earlier post to find out more!

Perhaps Mr. Teh tarik is more well known for the vast variety of drinks. But do you know that they whip up many yummy dishes to go along too?

Roti John Chicken

One of my favorite Muslim dishes is the roti john. Most of the time, it is served with plenty of chili sauce. Unless the chili sauce tastes funny, you can’t really go wrong with this.

At Mr. Teh tarik, the roti john is served with very delicious chili sauce AND creamy mayonnaise too. Simply sedap (yummy)! This additional condiment makes a world of difference.

Plus, the way they squeeze it in a cute checkered pattern over the French bread is just neat!

Oh by the way, if you aren’t too familiar with the roti john, check out my earlier writeup on how it came about and got its name. It’s pretty interesting!

Chicken Briyani

Of course, there’s also nasi briyani for people that prefer eating rice rather than bread. We had asked for our chicken to be deep fried. It turned out pretty well, although I would still go for roti john any day!

So, for those of you looking for a late night supper place, you now have another option! That’s great for all of us, right?

    Hi Veron, I enjoy reading your blog and the colours of your website is just so sweet and dreamy…

    Can you suggest a nice place for some ladies’ intimate get-together high tea session which serves buffet style?

    I am a big fan of teh tarik ever since I moved to Singapore four years ago, but I haven’t been able to find a place where it caters well to that beverage. It is also nice to know this place is somewhat near where I live. Thanks for the recommendation.

    By the way, I am a first time commentor, even though I have visited your site numerous times. Great design, and I love how you cater all your posts to promoting Singapore. I have learned a lot more things about this place (especially in regards to eating places) while going through your site. Thanks!

    Tiong Bahru Plaza took away the outdoor seating area of Teh Tarik Cartel. What a sin!

    It seemed that residents across the road complained to NEA about the noise generated by customers at night.

    I really like to taste all the delicious food there but unfortunately I have no chance!
    I always want to try their food but it is full house everytime I pass by there.
    I reach TB Plaza today around 9pm after work. I’m so excited to see that there are some seats at the shop.
    I take a seat & wait for a while but I didnt see any staffs there so I decided to walk into the shop. I asked one of the staff where to order food & I was told to go to the counter.
    I happily queue up & wait for my turn.
    After I order the food the staff told me that “having here sit outside & wait for ordering”. It is about 9.20pm & I’m very HUNGRY!!!
    I sit down again. Now I saw a staff taking order at a table next to me. I tried to be patience & wait…..
    The staff walk into the shop after taking the orders, He turn back and look at me before he step into the shop & it was about 20m away from me. He asked “You take ur order d?”
    I told him haven & he never even listen properly & walk into the shop.
    9.30pm & I was told to sit & wait & wait…..
    I not sure what will you think when you’re hungry & nobody bother to service & serve you. I only feel disappointed!
    I requested to see the manager there. But the staff just said sorry & you can take your order now. It really piss me off!!!!
    I always tot that services in Singapore is perfect as the government promoted their services excellent all the while. However I changed my mind today!
    This will be the 1st & last I visit this shop.
