Good and cheap food in JB

[hquek]

yo Coolit, glad it was not tough to find. Yah, yesterday I had Kelantan laksa…somehow it lacks the oomph of WW Laksa house.


FYI, during CNY, the loveletters they help to sell are very very good also. Didn’t try the other new year goodies.

‘Oomph’ is the right word for the WW Laksa house. I think whenever we go in to JB, we

will make it one of our stops. All tks to your recommendation lah, hope we don’t get too
fat haha.

You went to Kelantan or is it available in Singapore?

Are their loveletters homemade? I don’t really fancy loveletters but may buy some for
parents and ILs.

[hquek]

no no. Kelantan laksa is located at Jalan Besar - Singapore. They are famous for not having chopsticks (no tau pok also). Yes, WW laksa gravy is more ‘full bodied’ compared with the stuff we generally get in SG. The lady store owner is very nice also.


WW Laksa house helps pp to sell CNY goodies - we tried their loveletters (my mum liked it so much she bought a lot to give away). It may be made by pp at their homes. not too sure on that.

Oh haha which part of Jalan Besar? May get some loveletters for my mum and mil.


Anyway, malaysian food is always better than singaporean, most of the time anyway.
They seem to use fresher ingredients. and tks yah for all the recommendations. My hubby and I are real foodies so we always take down all the good food places, now this laksa place at JB is one more place

[hquek]

i think the correct name could be sungei road laksa. The correct one should be at Blk 27 Kelantan Lane (just directly down the road from Jln Besar market - the oyster omelette at this place is fantastic).


They used to be at Blk 31 Kelantan Lane, and I still see reviews for the laksa here. but I don’t think it’s the original one becos I ate here many years ago and the stall owner has moved to Blk 27. Amazed that the new operators can use the same name.

[coolit]

Oh got it! Will go try it if I have the time. Some stalls try to ride on the fame of their predecessors. Anyway some stalls always have newspaper articles, I don’t know if they are

for real because when I try the food, some are so-so.

I sometimes go to Taman Sentosa, they have a lot of good foodstalls. Seafood is good and cheap!

If you’re at City Square, there are back lanes there that serves excellent Sup Kambing – absolutely fantastic – RM5. From City Square, walk towards the money change area near where the old checkpoint used to be. Turn into the back alleys. Starts operating from about 6 p.m.



ascklee.

I went to the laksa house. Best laksa, my hubby ordered 2 bowls. No time for Tai Ma. Went for some very good massage too. The 1 day holiday was worth it! Tks hquek. :imcool:

hello coolit! saw your post with great interest! haha. what massage was it you did and how much? heheh. am thinking of going to JB soon for massage and food too. i usually do massage with wifey at batam and eat A&W. but JB sounds like it has something different from fastfood!
