The server introduced their Famous Laksa Cik Umi amongst aplomb too then nosotros decided to try it out. The serving was large too the soup was pretty thick (thicker than the commons Assam Laksa). But it had all the essential columns ticked- sour, savory, spicy too a hint of sweetness (from the Shrimp paste). The condiments were spot on either but if I had to comment, it would travel the texture of the noodles... which I idea they could travel a piddling springier. Equally delectable was the Nasi Kacang, a serving of oiled Rice amongst ii types of curries. Amazing flavors but nosotros were non over-whelmed past times the dish.
We were novel to Kuih Serabai, a type of Malay Kuih like to the Chinese version of "Fatt Koh" or "Huat Kuih"... served amongst Gula Melaka syrup. Like its Chinese 'sibling', it has spongy nevertheless fluffy texture and... a peculiar acidity. We were non quite fond of the dish but it was a practiced experience, specially to consume amongst Gula Melaka.
