I saw the CBC report about this place having amazing laksa and happened to be at FMP a few days after so I tried it. I was SOOOOO hopeful that it would be as good as everyone says it is and maybe this was an off day. However, I found it just okay and not even like a close second to South Asian Malaysian in Scarborough.
The broth was really thin, bland and lacking in the really creamy rich flavour and texture that you expect from a laska. The noodles were nice, two different types. I always love the fried tofu sponges. The level of spiciness was just right. Enough to tingle but not enough to make you cry.
I think I'll try one more time just to be sure.
No, I'm not a laksa expert but I know what appeals to my taste buds and this one doesn't.
