Penang Delights

Blk 117, #01-06, Aljunied Ave 2

Finally, real Penang food in Singapore. None of the super sour assam laksa or fried kway teow with dark sauce added to cater for the Singaporean taste. The real McCoy. The Penang laksa here had a broth that was had the right amount of “tang” to it with loads of vegetables, mint, chillies and chunks of fish. And you could taste the “fire” in the fried kway teow (fried rice noodles). The menu here is simple, with just four items: laksa, fried kway teow, Hokkien mee soup (Penang style prawn noodle soup) and chicken curry all starting at S$2.50 / US$1.50 per serving. If only they had a sampler set so that I can try everything. But no matter, I will most certainly be coming back for more.

I guess Singaporeans are not used to the assam laksa of Penang because I heard that once, a woman asked the cook if she put Colgate in the soup.
Yeah, and assam laksa's good for your teeth too...
