Well, glad to hear that Uncle Lee of Lum Kee stall is doing well despite the current era. Was a regular customer when I worked nearby between 2014 and 2015.
Watching your video makes me craves for laksa in the middle of the night. I guess I’ll go and get some at the stalls you recommended tomorrow. I always enjoying watching your video and contents. Keep it up
Elmo, another great video, especially the historical and the origin of the food. You are right about Asam Laksa, it taste very good but not as popular. Hence, it is mostly found in Pasar Malam. Once a week makan is okay. Some how, I dunno why half of the sellers who sells Asam Laksa will have Curry Mee or Prawn Mee too. My knowledge on food origin is blur or which races that is came from. Elmo's video is a help.
When I was schooling there was Assam laksa which would come with a whole fish (fresh sardine). There was one such shop in SS2. I never seem to be able to find them now. Anyone knows if they still cook this style instead of minced fish? thx. Hey , there is an Assam Laksa stall in SS2, near the LRT station that sells good laksa and mee java but he only opens around 6.30PM and by the time he comes there, there will already be a big queue forming. It's almost behind the lrt track there.
Hi Elmo, my family and I enjoy your selections and presentation style tremendously. May I ask if you have done anything yet on Claypot Curry Fish Head ? , I would recommend the Thai ( lemak ) Style Curry Fish at Lucky Seafood, Paramount Garden , P Jaya as one of our all time favorites Perhaps you can try that ?
@@kayellai5278 I am not sure where they are located now but now you can find it in quite a lot places, in year 2019 i even saw them sell in the Ramadhan Bazaar. Most of their stalls are in AEON
Hi uncle Elmo, watched this video last night and went out to buy SS2 J Laksa's Assam Laksa just few minutes. Not bad :-) unfortunately, their Anson ccf was not available as there was a malfunction with their steamer
Hi elmo.. Are u sure ah cheng laksa cost rm4. 90???because most of their shops are in shopping malls so higher cost rental etc. So definitely more than normal pricing... Cheers
Northern people known laksa as assam laksa, while there are different for laksa and curry noodle in the mid region. Curry noodle consist of curry powder or flavor while laksa is non curry just coconut spicy flavor noodle.
I already mark the location; my wish list, especially wants to try the fried laksa. : ) You are right female the majority likes laksa, for my wife likes the Malay stall kind of style. The reason is the noodles, The texture is tastier.
Hope you will put more efforts and editing skills into featuring the food to make them "look more delicious" like some close-up shots, smoke rising from a hot dish in slow-motion, glistening surfaces of food with sauces, some sound effect of a crispy food etc. So far the videos are more like vlogs whereby we enjoy watching you go out (risking yourself in the pandemic for our sake), while we sit behind a screen cruising through our bland lives.
Unfortunately I'm not up to that level and I dun want to get there. But if u want to know what pro food photography is I've, I've been thru while working for McDonald's. One example, to shot the bun of a big Mac we hv to choose from 50 pc. Im not taking about the patties and lettuce yet. Im a one man band and although I've some professional equipment I still use my cellphone to shoot. At the of the day I intend to b a vlogger and I should look like one
@@malaysiafood328 Thanks for clarifying. I subscribed to your channel thinking it's about promoting Malaysian food and recommending shops to visit for delicious food. Didn't know you are actually going down the vlogger route. I've already unsubscribed now but still wish you best of luck growing this channel.
In my opinion, none of these make the cut for GOOD Asam laksa. Its a decent ok ok only on my opinion. By Penang standard, no standard la. For a Penang kia, only 1 stall meets 85/100 points but its located in Klang Taman Botanic (and a closed down branch at Kota Kemuning) Uncle should also try Ho Li Chow in Damansara Kim. They have many other goodies too. check it out
Ayer Itam Laksa as shown in your video are close till further notice (maybe permanently). They have financial problem due to MCO and their son owing money to loan sharks/debt collectors.
Actually i'd come across 2 more outlets selling fried laksa also in Klang Valley, but can't recall name n place @ the moment. If U haven't try Laksa Utara, give it a shot, think U'll like it ... no prawn paste and use real rice noodles not laifun. "Man Laksa Utara" (name of vendor) is simple but good, cost Rm5 only! I think reason for "Well Cook Gourmet" fd laksa dropped standard is when they hike up price, they increase size alittle, carbo base only. Nothing else ... so the sambal, condiments, toppings not so balance. Save yourself the effort, they don't cater to more sambal request. Perhaps boss may in your case coz U are doing write-up.
air itam Laksa不是最好吃的。要吃好吃的Laksa其实很多地方也是有的。可惜如今要吃到真正的好吃我也不敢肯定了。十几年没回去了很多小贩已经不存在了。真正好吃的Laksa除了汤之外Laksa粉也是很重要的。如今你们吃的Laksa粉是包装的。市场上的Laksa小贩都是用包装粉。要吃好料肯定要吃手工Laksa粉。
Penang Air Itam closed down already because his son gamble and owe ah long , forced to close down as ah long go there everyday to collect money from the old man.
Penang air itam laksa close already, son gambling issue and harass by loan shark. Dad dont want to continue plus covid. His laksa kinda over-rated if you ask me
Uncle you miss out Pj Section 17 Kwang Hua 光华。Their laksa also very nice.
Thanks Jim I must try
laksa story 👏 and review. thanks elmo. Support !! Support !! Malaysian original
Laksa in Malaysia very famous. every one like to eat. Thank you for recommend all famous stalls to us.
If not mistaken the laksa in pasar Ayer Itam already close down.
So sad julian
The best of the best Laksa .... so yummy
看到就想吃
As usual, your presentation is superb. Keep it up mate!
Thanks Andrew stay safe
Thanks Elmo. I luv Assam Laksa.
I like this cuisine, thanks for your intro
The first time I had Fried Asam Laksa is at Hakka Marble Restaurant in Cheras
Wow didnt know theres another fried laksa around
@@malaysiafood328 I think it used to be a trend. Then, it die off. Currently, only some restaurant or cafe that still served it.
Asam Laksa from Only U in Glenmarie, Shah Alam is very nice. Northern style, as owner from Kampar.
Their prawn noodles also nice.
Uncle Lee. If i can subscribe more than once..i will happily do so..keep up the good work
So nice of u Alan stay safe bro
Haha Agree

@@malaysiafood328 Okay then
虾膏是laksa的灵魂 😋😋，我是槟城人，从小吃惯哪个味道了。谢谢你的介绍 🥰🥰
蝦膏是叻沙的特色只是我挑剔吧
它還是大眾的喜愛
@@malaysiafood328 不是挑剔，只是每个人口味不一样，比如我吃红豆冰但是不吃红豆，喜欢吃云吞面但是不吃云吞 😆😆
哈哈😄好搞笑
1 utama AEON 里面的D‘laksa也是不错吃.我个人吃了，不会输以上的那几家。还有晚上taman bahagia 的laksa也不错.
谢谢我要去试一下

Thanks wong thats very encouraging
I always take a screenshot of the addresses at the end of all your videos!! 👍🏻👍🏻
Too bad I can't travel to KL. will definitely visit when everything's better. Stay safe uncle Lee
If you are in Malaysia, there are a few franchise mentioned in this video. Ah Cheng and Penang Teochew Chendul.
wow.. Im from northern too. LEE, got chance try lemak laksa from Kedah.
My daughter's favorite nasi lemak is from ur kedah Ah cheng
Awesome video @elmo!
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Wow ~~ thanks Uncle Elmo !! Every week I will go ss2 cari makan but didn't know there's sedap one Asam laksa !! Will try it soon ...
Thanks Sam hope tis stall will not disappoint u
Mr Lee , in Malacca Curry Mee is called Nyonya Laksa so it is not only KL called curry mee as laksa
Thanks lai i think the Northern states only calls it laksa
Asam laksa + curry mee = curry laksa 🤣🤣🤣. I like that confusion.. 👍 good vid
ah ching laksa factory is in usj 1, walking distance from our office.
Nothing beats the Sea Park Market laksa with midday sun, freshly butchered pork aroma and beautiful drain... my fav!
LOL I even had rats running over my feet. But seriously

【laksa !】……也就是laksa utara !】我聽一位馬來人朋友告訴我，laksa utara是霹靂州源起地！
檳城laksa 是“峇峇娘惹人仕”用霹靂州的laksa utara 所有材料烹煮……然後～峇峇娘惹人仕再加入多几種材料、香料烹煮，然後就形成了……檳城峇峇娘惹laksa ，檳城laksa 揚名本國、揚名海外，喜歡吃酸辣麵的人仕們，都知道檳城laksa 大受歡迎喔！

Thanks yau I'm planning claypot chicken rice 1st coz it's more easy to locate
D Laksa is nice too. Uncle Lee should try the asam laksa!
Thanks Diana but where is D laksa though
D Laksa is the stall used to sell in Jusco Mid Valley. Now they have few outlets in malls of Klang Valley
Sorry, to me D'Laksa is so so only. They use fish in cans, not fresh.
@@julianwang6279 Do you mean the stall inside Jusco, previously? Is it the same that move to lower ground near supermarket?

I heard that the Ayer Hiram Laksa had closed for business permanently. Not sure if it is true.
Not sure chin
Some say temporarily
But what a waste
Back in business as in a few weeks back
@@miketan8190 great 👍
the penang laksa located at Ayer Itam is temporarily closed
Thanks I was told earlier
Uncle Elmo, no need to remove your spectacles, enough handsome already
Thanks teoh LOL I actually put on the glasses to hide my wrinkles. Guessed it didn't work
Hi elmo.. Are u sure ah cheng laksa cost rm4. 90???because most of their shops are in shopping malls so higher cost rental etc. So definitely more than normal pricing... Cheers
Definitely John, that was the price I paid during the time of video shooting. Anyway tis is the junior bowl, not the regular size
D'Laksa is pretty good and very similar to original Pg flavour.
I have tried D'Laksa, my verdict differ from you. Which stall are you refering to in Penang? All stalls in Penang do not taste the same but similar.
@@kayellai5278 I tried the stall in Midvalley and one utama. Haven't tried the ones in Penang.
Northern people known laksa as assam laksa, while there are different for laksa and curry noodle in the mid region. Curry noodle consist of curry powder or flavor while laksa is non curry just coconut spicy flavor noodle.
For northerners, laksa must have
1. the laksa noodles,
2. the broth must be fish based
3. the broth must be sour
otherwise, it's not laksa
I already mark the location; my wish list, especially wants to try the fried laksa. : )
You are right female the majority likes laksa, for my wife likes the Malay stall kind of style.
The reason is the noodles, The texture is tastier.
Thanks Garry I received your Google link for laksa adi
Ayer hitam already close down
Yes but temporarily

can try taman melawati here…here one of the best,which one of my kelantan malay friends bring me here..
Same here, i like the taste without prawn paste, normally i request the seller don't put it.
So I'm not alone in rejecting prawn paste Ching
Mr Lee, if possible please public the stall food reservation contact no, its convenience to order and collect during this pandemic period.
A lot using can sardine fish & spoil the taste...hard to find authentic one in PJ
Ya lo most vendors looking for easy way out
Sorry this is not laksa. It is Asam Laksa, it is different
