We came here for a quick lunch as it was near our hotel. We ordered the Assam Laksa, cendol, sago gula Melaka and cold coffee. Here's my overall experience. Food - the Assam Laksa was different from what I am used to. It didn't taste sour or spicy but mildly sweet and it had a creamy texture. Perhaps it's the Nyonya style of cooking. The cendol and sago gula Melaka were within expectations. The cold coffee wasn't great. Service - the food and desserts were served quickly after we placed our order. One of our plates had a cracked edge but it didn't bother us as we only noticed it after the meal. Nothing exceptional other than that. Atmosphere - the place was not designed for hanging around longer than a meal time but it was expected so nothing extraordinary.
Came here randomly due to the high Google reviews. Didn't realise it was a bib goumand addition in 2025 until I saw the sign outside. Fairly small but concise menu. Assam laksa is the star of the show. We paid about 80myr for 2x nyonya laksa lemak, 1x nyonya laksa lemak Sui, a Laksa mojito, Gula melacca coffee and a homemade ginger tea. Ordered 2x lai fun thin noodles but they all came the same size. Not a massive deal though. Tasty broth, could have done with some meat or something in the laksa dish as I was hungry just a few hours after eating it, but the quality is great. The laksa mojito was also really good. One of the best Assam laksa dishes we had on our trip.
Best laksa in Georgetown. The desserts are also excellent. Often desserts are an afterthought, but they've really excelled in their presentation. Drinks are also brilliantly thought through. All in all, great concept and excellent execution. Well deserving of their Michelin 2025 award. Give it a try...if parking allows!!
Kropek is good - crispy Celadon - frshly coomed, fried with nice banana like taste inside Noodle (rice noodle) - soft, clear, Soup - mild spicy, tasty dishes, a bunch of different flavors, something minty. Less milky than what we are used to in the Philippines: Deseert - combination isn’t great but definitely a must try due to it’s uniqueness. Unsweetened dessert
