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.

Remark:
A lot of the tables were placed near the main road and whenever got big lorry come, there goes additional ingredients into your plate (Dust!). The place were quite windy and overall environment are pretty OK. The foods wise, I can say they serve the most ingredients that go together with Yam Rice and Kueh Chap. The fish cake are the best I taste in Singapore so far. All were freshly fried upon order. The innards are cleaned properly and stewed together with the duck to perfection!

Remark:
The prawn mee comes with 3 large prawns and 3 pcs of pork ribs which are extremely fresh and succulent. The pork ribs are cooked together with the prawn soup to make it concentrated with the rich essence of both ingredients. As a result a damn “TOK KONG” soup is cooked. It taste similar with Penang Hokkien Prawn Mee skipping the chili paste (chili boh). Once you add that in, it turns to authentic Penang Hokkien Mee.
The way we eat the prawn noodles here are with different kind of chili. It goes with Thai chili powder rather than chili paste. The chili powder blend in excellent together with the soup yet preserving the pork ribs and prawn taste.
