Besides the famed Ellenborough Market Café’s Nyonya Laksa ($14++), there is Singaporeans all times favourite, the Singapore Laksa ($14++) which was cooked with yellow curry powder, dried shrimp and lemongrass and is served alongside freshly-made noodles, tiger prawns and lashings of egg omelette.
Among the 6 different types of Laksa, the dry version ones got our votes. Fried Laksa Seafood Noodles ($13++) comprising a base of thick rice noodles lightly-coated with fragrant Laksa curry, topped with fresh catches of squid and juicy tiger prawns. For those whose carb-of-choice is rice, the Laksa Seafood Fried Rice ($13++) was cooked up by Ellenborough market Café’s expert local chefs in a flaming-hot wok.
