Reviews:

Al-Azhar is located at 11/11A Cheong Chin Nam Road ,opposite Beauty   World Plaza near Upper Bukit Timah Road, has plenty going for it. It’s open long into the night and, encouragingly, always busy. The Indian food is cheap: an order of two curries, breads, rice and drinks comes in under $20. And the quality of some of the Indian dishes (Thai, Malay and Chinese staples are also served) is on a par with what you’d find at far glitzier establishments. The butter chicken, for instance, is sinfully rich and flavoursome. The biryanis and pratas rarely disappoint. And I never miss an  order of green-pepper dhal. 
Al-Azhar is also interesting for people-watching. For one thing, you’ll always find someone hunched over a bizarre Singapore drink. Beverages of choice include Bandung (the alarmingly pink, rose-flavoured kopitiam classic) and a concoction known as the Milo Dinosaur (a regular cup of Milo with a big spoonful of undissolved Milo powder on top). Not to mention the Horlicks Godzilla .


A good place to chill out/lepak with your friends after a long day at school with a sumptuous meal. I would definitely go back again!!
