5 Otah you should really try!






Sure you have definitely eaten Otah at some point in your life, but here's 5 places Makansutra featured for you to satisfy your Otah cravings!



1. Nam San Mackerel Otah

267 Joo Chiat road
Opens 7am to 7pm daily




Arguably, the most popular shop specialising in this snack. This little shop can be easily found simply by following the strong whiffs of mackerel otah along Joo Chiat road. A male staff, surrounded by at least 10 smoking-hot open grills, singlehandedly barbeques all seven flavours of otah — mackerel, fish roe, fish head, white fish (non-spicy), squid, prawn and Thai — all cradled in banana leaves. The popular favourite is the thick yet moist and tender original mackerel flavour. We thoroughly enjoyed the Thai otah too, just a tad spicier with a heavier use of lemongrass, but the bones in the fish head otah proved to be too much of a hassle.
