| situated infront of the tway station at parramatta next too nandos |
Me and tims went during lunch so their were no lines and not much people, it was abit after lunch around 3pm. We were greeted upon arrival and got seated too our table, though we chose to move since we didnt want to sit infront of the door way and ended up getting a small table for 2, i didnt mind i was just ready to eat. They asked if it was our first time and showed us the process of how to order and gave us the menu. Their system is quite easy and in my opinion much better because all you have to do is write down what you want on their order sheet and just ring the bell when you are done. It is much more easy for then talking to them on what i want and they end up making a mistake.

We were also received water straight, it was served in a weird brown jug. It looked like a bottle of poison too me. Not a very pretty jug for water, you can see it in the picture above (kinda). Also reminded me of a medicine bottle. Oh wells.
The menu is very big and has a lot of variety of food compared to Mamak which only has probably a page This menu went on forever with nice pictures to show what is what. I like menus with pictures so i know what it looks like. Their was a lot to choose from but we went with the simple Malaysian food.
We also ordered drinks and their drink menu was also big, i wanted so many different drinks. I was close to getting a coffee milk tea with herbal jelly because i was hopping it would be nice like mamak white coffee tea. But then i saw a lime and lychee crush with icecream and ofcourse i had to get that !!

When we rang the bell they came straight away and also advised us the roti will take 15 mins which was fine by us, it was nice they told us that !
Our drinks came our first, tims got the Kopi Coffee, in the picture above and like i said i got the lychee and lime crush with icecream.
The Kopi coffee was very strong for me so i didnt like it ofcourse but tims loves coffee so he liked it. My drink was sooooo good, it was like a fruity version of a spider drink ! The icecream wasnt some homebrand icecream it was actually creamy and nice and made the drink so good, it was literally like a fruity slushi with icecream, so nice and refreshing ! I recommend everyone to get it when they go, from memory i think it was 7$. OMG while writing this i finally know what it taste like ! THE SPLICE ICECREAM BUT DRINK VERSION, if yiu dont know what a splice is good it ! OMG thats what it tasted like !!!! OMG ok ill stop but yeah sooo good

My drink came out with our first dish, i chose this dish before we even went Papparich because before i go anywhere i look at the menu of what i want. The dish above was Chili pan mee, which sounded so good but when i got it, it did not look like minced chicken ! it was suppose to be minced chicken with anchovies, mushrooms, egg and chili paste. Thought when i got it the meat tasted like tuna not minced chicken, though it was a alright dish. No where near chilli ! not even chili and the paste was a bit plane with the dish so it was like a healthy noodle bowl. I liked the concept of the half boiled egg and paste and mushrooms. Though the taste wasnt what i imagined, was very plain in my opinion.
Next dish was my fav and if you dont get it FUCK YOUR LIFE (Jokes you will regret it). It is Papparich chicken rice with steamed chicken. THE CHICKEN WAS PROBABLY THE BEST CHICKEN I EVER HAD. Not even joking right now. It was so soft and tender ! literally like it was going to melt in your mouth. This dish may sound simple but it was the best and simple is better. Even though the chicken wasnt placed nicely and messy, you can tell that the chicken was so soft that it couldnt stay together, it was in a simple oil sauce broth or whatever which made it nice and moist ! It also came witha dark sticky soy sauce which i didnt even need because the chicken was so nice. I could eat the chicken alone and eat 5 of it. The rice was suppose to have chicken flavor but i didnt notice, probably because the chicken was so nice and overpowering. A soup was also given on the side, which just tasted like msg and a normal viet side soup nothing special. So if you do go to Papparich please get this dish, if you dont want rice you can get it with noodles or congee etc !! THANK ME LATER WHEN YOU TRY THIS DISH :)
Our next dish was the satay skewers
We got the skewers first and first look i knew it looked dry. When i finally had a bite i was right, the chicken skewers were dry and the lemon grass and turmeric was not nice on it and not marinated well.. It was not as good as the Mamak one !! the Mamak one was 100000x better and i think it was also 90c cheaper hahaha. The satay sauce was actually nice and simple tasted like the Mamak one, so it was good on the dish but still the skewers itself as a disappointment.
Our last dish was the Roti Canai with curry cihicken. The roti itself was ok, not as nice as i thought it would be, i honestly liked the Mamak roti better because it was much lighter then Papparich one. The roti had a nice sweet taste but it was a bit too thick. Just like Mamak they had a chilli curry type of sauce and a normal one, i obviously liked the chilli one more and the normal one was plain. The curry was also average tasted normal, nothing special about it. I thought this dish was average and wasnt as good as Mamak just because the roti itself let the whole dish down.
Overall i recommend people to try it as it is kinda local, closer to the city. I will be coming back to try other stuff and ofcourse have my dose of that godly chicken !
The staff are young and still not fully trained so nothing to complain about since they opened. The food didnt take long to come out as new restaurant usually take long but this was good waiting time. Not sure how it is at night time though.
Paparich is more expensive then Mamak as we ordered more at mamak including the dessert and it only costed 63 and at Papprich we ordered less and costed 67 without dessert !
Hope you enjoy if you and tell me what dish is your fav xoxo
