You can find curry laksa and assam laksa in Singapore. But for the really local version, opt for the curry sauce option.

A bowl of curry laksa can only shine delightfully with the help of a spicy coconut soup, which is the soul of this Peranakan dish. And the fish cakes, shrimps and stews on top of the thick bee noodles play their part well to give laksa a strong oceanic note. You can combine the dish with otah, a grilled fish cake with banana leaves, to double this ocean flavor.

Since the noodles are always shortened before serving, you will no longer need a pair of chopsticks to miss them. Use a spoon to remove all the goodness.

• Deliciously intense flavor: if you’re used to the Katong laksa, you can probably expect the laksa to the west or north to be no different – slightly spicy, creamy and looks like a blazing sunset in color . Wei Yi’s laksa looks darker in curry color but surprisingly, it is neither too tart nor sweet.
