Best Murtabak in the World

Have you all tasted a really good murtabak that you would never say no. So far, the best murtabak that I've ever experience is in Singapore. I have been savouring this murtabak for many years. Recently I was in Singapore to have the same murtabak, however the restaurant was closed by the Singapore authority...because the restaurant was having some hygiene problems...but then I went to the restaurant next door Restaurant Victory or Victoria if I am not mistaken - near Arab Street, across the street from the Sultan Mosque, yet the murtabak is what I got in the past. The point I am trying to make here is that the murtabak was so crispy, with tons of layers and rich filling. There are several types of murtabak, chicken, beef, and lamb. And how they make it..first they will spread the dough on the table ...strecth the dough like making roti canai...then next step is add the filling ...cooked ground beef, onions, chillies, and eggs...sounds yummy and on top of that they put another piece of cooked plain murtabak in the filling and cover the murtabak and pan-fry till crispy. The result is very thick, moist and rich murtabak with a spicy bowl of curry. If you go to Singapore this is a must thing to do, that's what I call the best murtabak in the world. Bon Apetite.
