Jalan Perak Fish Ball Asam Laksa at Restaurant Khean Hooi

October 29, 2008 by email2me · 6 Comments 

There are a long history back where asam laksa is considered a high tea snack. They use to be serving it in a small bowl rather than the current version which serve in a standard size bowl. For tourist, your trip to Penang won’t be complete if you didn’t taste the ASAM LAKSA and CHAR KOEY TEOW.

For tourist, when you talk about asam laksa, the first that would come into your mind would be the Kek Lok Si/Air Itam Bus Station Asam Laksa. I already patron this stall since I was at the very young age cause my house just a 10 minutes walk away. But now I find that their soup are getting more diluted and didn’t taste as good as last time.

I currently prefer the one in Jelutong which recommended by my friend. It is operated by husband and wife at a kopitiam called Khean Hooi Restaurant.

You get a whole piece of fish for every bowl you order. You can opt for additional fish with extra charges. You can look at the soup which is pretty clear. This is due to the way they cook the soup which that they don’t let the fish to overcook till smashed and blend into the soup. Do rest assure that the taste still as good!

Remark:
Along East Coast Road of Singapore, you might notice 3 or 4 restaurant selling LAKSA. The laksa is the This dish comes only with a spoon and no chopstick. This is the first time I eat my noodle dish without using chopstick. They only serve you with a spoon with chili and lime leaf.

Unlike the other type of Laksas, Katong Laksa uses noodles that are cut up into smaller pieces so that the entire dish can be eaten with a spoon alone (without chopsticks).

The cononut-based broth is much thicker than the other variants of Laksa. It is certainly more richer. Also, instead of yellow egg-noodle, they use white lai-fun noodles. A bowl of laksa is not complete if without the cockles.

The curry laksa taste not bad especially it comes with chickens. The asam laksa is not up to the Penang standard. I can only taste the over sour soup and less fish.

Comment/Remark :

The Chee Cheong Fun here is possibly the only one which eat together with shrimp paste. It taste really close to the one I had in Penang. This stall also is endorsed by 8TV Ho Chak! show.

As for the Penang Hokkien Prawn Mee, the boss himself is from Penang. He even distribute his recipe for resale by other hawkers. I like to eat it the Penang way which mix with the “LOH” soup and put a bit of fresh grind garlic. A place recommended for Penang hawker food.

At night this shop sells a nice Hokkien Char.
