"The Teh Tarik here is absolutely legendary! Perfectly frothy and sweet. The Mutton Rogan Josh is a must-try. Great ambiance in the heart of Chinatown."
Nestled in the heart of Chinatown at 40 Sago Street, Chinatown Teh Tarik has been serving authentic mamak-style cuisine and perfectly pulled tea to locals and visitors alike. Our journey began with a simple passion: to bring the true taste of traditional Singaporean and Indian-Muslim flavors to every table.
From our signature frothy Teh Tarik pulled to perfection, to crispy Roti Prata flipped fresh, and aromatic North Indian curries simmered with love – every dish tells a story of heritage, authenticity, and community. We're more than just a restaurant; we're a gathering place where friends meet, families bond, and flavors unite.
