On my way there, I was thinking of the delicious Teow Chew Fish Ball Noodle and the Teow Chew Cai Fan that I used to eat during lunch hours! Boohoo! Sadly, I found out from other stall owners that both stalls owner had retired…

你们真是没口福啊!

Anyway, I am going to introduce to you a few of the famous stalls that have been around! :)

ZHEN SHAN MEI CLAYPOT LAKSA

Before you got to enjoy this Depot Laksa, you would need to join in the LONG queue under the HOT sun, savoring the smell while waiting. How torturing right?

Ta Da ~ Finally it’s my turn!

The Laksa gravy is thick and the gravy is very 香~ … Okay at first glance, I thought it looks more like curry noodle though.

So what’s inside this pot of Laksa? Tau Pok that totally absorbed the Laksa gravy! Fish Cake, Shredded Chicken and of course the main 主角 Cockles ‘Hum’…

Well, I personally felt that the Laksa is over-rated by many. ‘Hum’ is pathetically little (I think I found only 2 to 3 pieces)… The gravy is nice, but it just don’t have the traditional Laksa taste that will lingers in your mouth. Overall, it taste more like a bowl of Claypot Curry Noodle. ;)

3 sizes for you to choose: $3.50 / $4.50 / $5.50.

Food rating: 2.5 / 5.0

This stall the main 主角 is their Crystal Dumpling - 水晶包… Do come either early or call to order in advance! I had to wait 30min for these 4 水晶包.

3 main flavors: Original Vegetable / Yam paste / Red Bean

I mainly ordered the sweet flavors, Yam paste and Red Bean paste. They are like the perfect dessert, not too sweet yet satisfying! The skin is thin, so it is not 粘牙 and the paste inside is really thick ‘Gao Gao’! Personally, I really like their crystal dumpling!

Yam / Red Bean: $0.80 each
Original: $0.60 each

Food Rating: 4.2 / 5.0
