Ordering Strategy

Portions are massive, so center your meal around your preferred regional style of laksa. If you're famished, split an order of the charcoal-smoked chicken satay.

What to order

Safe first

Melaka Laksa

The Eater-approved favorite; perfectly balanced rich coconut milk with just enough sourness and fresh seafood.

Hungry

Ipoh Curry Laksa

Regarded as one of the restaurant's 'top-notch laksas,' this substantial and hearty bowl makes the restaurant a 'top spot for Malaysian food.'

Wildcard

Penang Assam Laksa

Aficionados of Malaysian cuisine 'absolutely adored' this regional variety, with critics noting they 'definitely need to return' specifically for this sour and spicy dish.

Wildcard

Satay

Reviewers have called the satay 'outstanding,' making it a premier choice among the restaurant's lineup of hawker-style street-food favorites.

What to skip

Skip
Vegan LaksaWhile the restaurant offers a dedicated selection for plant-based diners, reports suggest that the 'vegan variety lacked the authentic taste' of the traditional broths.

Good to know

The chicken is halal, though pork and alcohol are served on the premises. They offer a dedicated vegan menu, and the sprawling downstairs dining room is excellent for accommodating groups.
