Best Laksa in PJ

Written by Updated ago

Laksa is one of the signature dishes of Peranakan cuisine. If you didn't know, Peranakan cuisine is of Peranakan origins - that are the early Chinese migrants who settled in the British ports of South East Asia (ie. Penang and Malacca). Since then, Peranakan cuisine has been a big part of Malaysian culture, especially in their home grounds of Penang and Malacca. While authentic Peranakan food is somewhat dependent on the pass-downs of generations of tradition, we are beyond glad to say that Malaysians' love for food has enabled these authentic dishes to be spread across the nation. Check out these serious contenders for the best laksa in Petaling Jaya!

    A Johor cuisine speciality restaurant, Del's Kitchen has been known to serve remarkable Malay dishes in the likes of Johor laksa, lontong, roti jala and such. The restaurant kicked off in Johor Bahru over a decade ago and has since expanded humbly to Petaling Jaya. That's good news for us as the dishes here are not only affordable but also tasty and authentic. With springy spaghetti noodles accompanied by rich and spicy fish gravy, it is no wonder the Laksa Johor is the best seller here!

    Over the years, Little Penang has been one of the more popular restaurants to get authentic Penang food. True enough, while the laksa and hokkien mee here may not top the original ones in Penang itself, the dishes are pretty authentic. Besides the famous Asam Laksa here, expect to be pleased with the Siamese Lemak Laksa which is of rich coconut milk base with rice noodles. Little Penang is pretty much the most convenient and accessible restaurant to go as there are various outlets in malls across PJ and KL.
    Tips

    Siamese Lemak Laksa only available from Fri-Sun.

    Things to expect

    Founded in 1975, Jaya Noodle House has been operating for 40 years to date. The reason for is sustainability is simple - its palatable Chinese dishes like the asam laksa! The restaurant interior is relatively simple but yet comfortable with plenty of space and seating. Don't be fooled, however, for lunch hours are usually crowded with white collar workers within the offices of the building or even from other offices around the area.

    Laksa Taman Bahagia

    Located just a stone’s throw away from Taman Bahagia LRT Station, this little stall has been gloating up patrons for years with a delectable bowl of Kedah-style laksa. The size of the stall is pretty small but it’s easily identified thanks to the long queue. In contrary to the famous Penang version, the broth is milder in colour and the silky smooth noodles is cut into shorter strips. Despite the variation, the broth offers a subtle balance of sour and sweet flavours while the liberal topping of shredded fish, cucumber, onion, ginger buds and prawn paste rounds up the dish. The portion is pretty big and it does not put a hole in your wallet. 

    Tips

    Come before 8pm to avoid the long queue
