Ramadan is upon us again. It’s a time where Muslims fast from dawn to sunset, an act which encourages one to self-reflect and improve on themselves. Breaking fast together as a family or with loved ones has become common practise for many, so in the spirit of togetherness, we’ve come up with a list of 5 affordable and halal restaurants for you to dine comfortably at home with (in your group of 8, of course).
El Carbon

El Carbon is not one to shy away from the stars – and by stars we mean ratings! This western food resto has 4.5/5 stars ratings and 4.3/5 stars ratings on foodpanda and google reviews respectively. Apart from their mouth-watering selection, the dishes are priced very reasonably – from $18 for an Angus Ribeye to their signature Grilled Meat Platter at only $38. Or if you need a little more carbs, El Carbon also offers dishes like the Prawn and Shrooms Pasta along with Grilled Chicken Baked Rice to give you the fuel you need.
What’s more, foodpanda is offering a 30% discount for all El Carbon orders from 12th April to 12th May, with a minimum order of $20. Order here to sink your teeth into hearty steaks and other delicious western food today!
Penang Culture

2020 may have halted all of our travel plans, but we can still be transported back to the backstreet alleys of Malaysian street food with these dishes from Penang Culture. Inspired by the traditional and long lasting hawker culture in Penang, this restaurant offers halal-certified dishes like Penang Fried Koay Teow, Rojak and Assam Laksa. There is something for everyone from Penang Culture’s extensive offerings on foodpanda. Start with a warm bowl of Penang Assam Laksa, accompanied by some BBQ stingray and sotong. Finish it off with a cooling bowl of cendol, a must have in Penang.

Tenderfresh

Tenderfresh needs no introduction, it is a household name that’s synonymous with wholesome comfort food. Their Signature Fried Half Spring Chicken ($12.90) reminds us of family gatherings where we would bite into the crispy chicken skin that’s fried to perfection. Did you know, Tenderfresh has also branched out from their fried chicken offerings to also include fusion dishes like Laksa Prawn Spaghetti ($8.33) and Tom Yum Sedap Lemak ($7.63)? Yummy!

When in doubt, order chicken rice. This is definitely Singapore’s no-frill dish that will leave everyone feeling satisfied. Feast on OK Chicken Rice’s Roasted Value Jumbo Chicken ($18.80) that is able to feed a group of 7. If you are looking for a lighter option, OK Chicken Rice also offers a wide variety of curry options, from Curry Chicken Porridge ($8) to Steam Chicken Curry Noodle ($4.90).

KFC

Fried chicken, cheesy fries and a cup of icy Pepsi to wash it all down, that’s exactly what KFC is about. Feast like a beast on KFC’s 10 piece chicken bucket, with more than enough to go around for a group of 5. Accompanied by their signature sides – mashed potatoes and cheesy fries, you can never resist this family-favourite brand.
