Not sure where but will try to track down an address


SGD$3 Laksa

Well local knowledge is everything, and on a quick work trip to Singapore, my friendly systems guy "Buck" took me to a little known part of town to try one of the laksa's he recommends, "It's not The Best Laksa in Singapore" says Buck, .. "but hey, I still have another day here to accomplish this" ….

Who knows where I'll end up..

So hidden away amongst a housing community somewhere in the older part of town, Buck takes me to where the British Colonies first landed and set up shop in Singapore … Buck hopes that the goverment will retain a bit of this older area just for historical reasons rather than stack up the high rise apartments .....

So on to the Laksa… You just know its going to be a good one when there's a big pot of Laksa Gravy with loads of Tofu soaking in it … mmmm

And I'm not disappointed at all…. Although there isn't much in the way of veg, the pure taste of the gravy sauce alone is enough to keep me happy there is something very special about a good gravy. I suppose it is like a good stock just constantly simmering away thick with flavour mmmm, anywayback to the laksa .
There is also a mix of noodles and bean sprouts and have I mentioned the large chunks of tofu that are floating in the gravy? Add to this a couple of bits of chicken and some of those little shellfish like bits (clams - getting use to them now) and I was one extremely happy laksa taster .

It was so good that I had to bring one back for the crew to taste at the venue ….. And even though they had just had dinner they still made sure that they had a taste ...

Boy am I glad that I asked him if he knew of a good Laksa ..
