Best Asam Laksa in Penang

Written by Updated ago

Sweet, sour and spicy – those are the three magic words best described for fulfiling a satisfying bowl of Penang asam laksa. With a smorgasbord of slurpy white rice noodles, shredded fish (typically mackerel), sliced pineapples, cucumber, onions, red chillis, lettuce, mint leaves steeped within the tamarind-flavoured soup base, what’s not to like about this all-time Malaysian favourite?

    The kind of food that is hidden from the world is usually not bad at all. There is a delightful hidden gem concealed at a housing area in Ayer Itam that takes a bit of effort to go to but all of that will not matter once you have a taste of their asam laksa that stays true of its authenticity. Fill up your tummy with this bowl of slurp goodness filled with thick fish broth full of fish flakes and slightly chewy laksa noodle that everyone can enjoy from the homemade feeling and flavour!
    Tips

    The place is opposite of Fairy Heights.

    Things to expect

    It is unlikely to have one whole piece of Ikan Kembung in asam laksa however that differs when it comes to the asam laksa at the infamous Farlim Shell Station Laksa. With more than 10 years of experience in serving a hearty bowl of asam laksa, this humble stall still gets crowded with hungry patrons in favour of their specialty. There is nothing like their aromatic sweet yet sour and savoury fish broth along with chewy springy laksa noodle and toppings as such Ikan Kembung, mint leaves, cucumber and ginger flower to treat your tummy and palate to a whole different world.
    Tips

    Dip the crispy spring rolls in the laksa broth for another unique way of enjoying your asam laksa.

    Things to expect

    You can choose to add Ikan Kembung or opt it out – totally depends on your preferences.
