If you ever wondered what's Sarawak Laksa, I tried at a few stalls in Kuching so that you don't have to.

It's actually just Curry Mee but they substitute Mee with MeeHoon.

So now you know

Noted with thanks

It’s like saying sambal is actually dry kari

i agree

>inb4 Ipoh curry mee bestest
owai-
Nearlee

yep.. no creativity

I dunno why Anthony Bourdain was crazy over it.

Cannot be more wrong, OP.

Sah tak pernah pijak tanah Soviet Sarawak. First of all. Laksa Sarawak tak Ada curry powder. Ada rasa Santan n that's the sole similarity with curry mee. How offensive to even mention Laksa sarawak n curry mee in the same post! It's like comparing Ferrari to axia 😋😂😂😂

Is like saying lembu is actually mutated overgrown kambing

hahahahahahaha waiting for the crocs to be triggered

Dah triggered.

So true. And damn these people selling fake sarawak laksa in KL and selangor. Give sarawak laksa a bad name.

posting in lembu's ka li mai fan tered

where to find authentic one in KL?

So tell us where to get authentic Sarawak laksa in KL before we condemn it to be overrated shit.

Ermm taking notes of offensive people so can send bane to Soviet Sarawak immigration to ban entry to Sarawak 🤣🤣🤣

Went to 4 Sarawak Laksa stalls over 3 days recommended by Sarawakian

Yup, confirmed it's Curry Meehoon

any recommendations kalau in kl/selangor? never found one that I did not regret buying

so far in my family we all like ipoh Kari mee, still can't understand why penang mee

tak sama boss.. curry laksa is curry laksa..
sarawak laksa is sarawak laksa..
the soup is totally different and the ingredient pun tak sama..

TS taste bud must be damaged by covid.

There is not even curry in the paste.

It's very rare to find authentic sarawak laksa but this comes close to it:

https://goo.gl/maps/CnTWWNqDQAcYzwft6

Dayang Sarawak corner or Sugarbun Menara Hapsen n Jalan TAR. Dunno Putrajaya Connexion branch got sell laksa or not. Dayang Sarawak corner got few. One at the multiple level parking food court at SG Besi MRT/LRT.

If you cannot differentiate the distinct different in taste n smell, I suggest you reach out to kpj to do tongue n nose transplants.

personal preference,
sharon sarawak laksa - kajang
dayang sarawak - sungai besi
salted - damansara

hit or miss
dapur sarawak
7th mile kitchen (felt the kolo mee nicer)
ling li xiang (kuey chap nice)
J&J Borneo Corner citarasa masakan Sarawak(non-halal) - prefer the kolo mee. sometimes can buy tuak.

Cannot change beehoon to mee meh

Drillz ada?

First of all, the best original sarawak laksa is halal or not?

do you mean curry without the Santan?

Likely they think you Tanah Melayu people would prefer the close to Tanah Melayu type curry me so they made the suggestion lolol

Generally halal lah, unless you go fusion with kampua/biansit

this one.. replace 7th mile last time?

just google sarawak laksa..or curry meehon

bangsar market nearby, cant remember the kopitiam name d, might have it if u google it

Kesian. Kari dengan laksa pun tak tau beza

How to know which is the authentic one?

Yes, 7th mile kitchen used to be there but they moved during covid times.

Rustic took over that new place now, not sure if they are related.

How dare ts condemn soviet sarawak cuisine?!

Fly to Sarawak la if you dont want doubts

If Sarawak laksa is curry mee hoon, then

Penang laksa is curry udon

where got condemn

just stating fact

can save the trip for some foodies

That depends on which Sarawak stall you visit, either run by Malay or Chinese.



No curry, that's why Covid really did damage TS taste bud.

Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha..... Topkek!

Sugarbunis Sarawak own kepci with additional Borneo food in the mix. It's halal. Dayang Sarawak corner halal. Separuh staff pakai tudung. Halal kot rasa ya. Kolok me pun daging udang n ayem. No bavi. No sell langku or tuak. Or if you prefer can head Pasar Borneo Seri Kembangan every Saturday 7am to 11am. They have also.

My Sarawakian friends tell me to avoid all the Sarawak Laksa stalls run by Malay. They say tak sedap so I didnt go.

now I am hungry

that curry meehoon looks good bro!

No , it is not the same.

Some unique features of the Sarawak Laksa from my observation:-

1) Lai fan
2) the gravy mixture of laksa + curry + black peppercorn. The gravy got taste of laksa with the shrimp paste.
3) peeled steam prawns
4) sliced fried eggs
5) Bean sprouts

So far, the best one ever tasted was at the 33 VIP Food Court @ Bandar Country Homes





The one as per your description is actually the Johor's Laksa. Johor's laksa = curry mee, don't know why Johorean called it laksa.

This is where youre wrong, curry doesnt mean you need curry powder/spices to make curry. Curry doesnt mean it need santan either.

Kan. The sup is originally darkbrownishcolor to black color before you add santan. It's eaten with sambal belacan n lime. In what world would the taste be the same with curry mee. Dafug?!

I think OP got scammed. There's no curry in Sarawak Laksa. Mostly it's shrimp paste and spices (zero curry).

Kesian TS got long covid.

Clearly never been to Sarawak and eat Sarawak laksa.

Lulz!

best laksa btw. Other laksa I feel are niche category cus need to process fish etc

read comment #49

just like singapore bkt is actually just white pepper soup

I agree it's like mix jiken shit with cat poo, you get nasi biryani. Byee. Break dah habis.

don't know.

no money to buy flights tickets

must be those stall cooked by bangala

actually whats the difference between laksa vs curry laksa vs curry? for me, laksa = asam laksa. if curry laksa, it is just curry.

TS need to check actual fact

dont share fake info

not only that.
their curry spice is different. a bit heavy. I don't like this.

nasi kandar = nasi putih + lauk pauk

Sweet curry mee. Ewwww!!

the johor laksa is same like penang laksa but the soup become thicker (gravy) and they use spaghetti as noodles

From Chatgpt:

Sarawak Laksa and Mee Hon Curry are both popular dishes in Malaysia, but they have distinct differences in terms of their flavors, ingredients, and preparation methods. Here's a breakdown of their unique characteristics:

Flavors:

Sarawak Laksa: Sarawak Laksa is a spicy noodle soup dish known for its complex flavors. It has a rich and aromatic broth made from a combination of spices, such as lemongrass, galangal, and sambal belacan (a spicy shrimp paste). The broth is typically creamy due to the addition of coconut milk. It has a tangy and slightly sour taste, often complemented with a mild sweetness.

Mee Hon Curry: Mee Hon Curry, also known as Curry Mee, is a noodle dish that features a flavorful curry broth. The curry is usually made with a combination of spices, such as turmeric, chili, and various herbs and spices. The broth is thick and creamy, with a slightly sweet and savory taste.

Ingredients:

Sarawak Laksa: The key ingredients of Sarawak Laksa include rice vermicelli noodles, shredded chicken, prawns, bean sprouts, omelet strips, and fresh coriander. It is also commonly garnished with lime wedges and sambal belacan for added spiciness.

Mee Hon Curry: Mee Hon Curry typically consists of yellow egg noodles or rice vermicelli noodles, along with ingredients like sliced chicken, shrimp, bean curd puffs, cockles, and bean sprouts. It is often garnished with fried shallots, chopped scallions, and sometimes fresh mint leaves.
Preparation:

Sarawak Laksa: The preparation of Sarawak Laksa involves cooking the broth with a blend of spices and then simmering it with prawn heads and shells to extract maximum flavor. The noodles are cooked separately and then added to the broth along with the other ingredients before serving.
Mee Hon Curry: In the case of Mee Hon Curry, the curry broth is typically prepared by cooking the spices and herbs together to form a fragrant curry paste. The noodles and other ingredients are then added to the broth and cooked until everything is well combined.

Also I think use MSG, uncle Roger would be proud

After I eated at every stall, sure thirsty like crazy

this chubro is more crazy over it



anyway i prefer sarawak mee kolok over this.

What you describe is just broth. Curry is more narrowed down version and laksa Sarawak use santan, curry not all use. How?

real manchested heading to instabul bodo

Salawak got what? Jungle got la.
Food oso got what tarikan? Laugh die me.

Diferent with sabah. Sabah got islands n beautiful waters.
Kk side got mountain.

Nice try to create drama
Obviously you never fly to kuching
Or ur kena cancer d lose ur taste bud

It was a curry mee la. I tried a few stalls, all actually were curry mee.

Penang laksa is the laksa we used to know growing up.

they will soon have Malaysia's tallest flag pole

https://www.theborneopost.com/2023/01/27/sa...ghest-flagpole/

oh well to each their own

Penang Laksa is damn gooding

Narrow? Laksa is a one of curry

Curry has thousands kind out there

Actually my travel companions (all KL people) agree with me also

sometimes it takes an outsider with a neutral point of view to discover what things actually are

penang ppl curry mee with beehoon mee oh, what's the problem? LOL

ah now it make sense, KL ppl tastebuds all something wrong punya. semakin jadi singaporeans mia tastebuds
conclusion TS and companions all got cancer, #prayforTS

Are you trying to start a war with dear Sarawakians

Eh too big of a generalization. Mexicans use spices then their food is curry?

Let's see this thousand list of curry dishes

Sarawak laksa also different kaler.

no lah just to educate those who have not makan before and wondering what it is

Why I'm the one to prove it when you brought it up first?

TS u sohai ke apa? The taste is totally different.

Proof that ts have never eat salawak laksa before.

Not sure stupid or low effort troll.

It doesn't taste like curry mee, it's different

if never eat then how would i know it's actually just curry meehoon

Will have Art n use state money. no need to like some state jual maruah kerja dgn UMNO baru dapat fund utk copy LRT yg dah berlambak Ada di KL
We also have highwaysthe length from Johor to Perlis Which are without toll. Tanah Melayu Ada ke?

Precisely what someone who never ate sarawak laksa before would say and describe

It is obvious you doesnt know what curry really is and you doesnt know to cook curry. Even when you eating a curry that you didnt know it is curry dishes

Bagi u sampah pun u ckp rasa macam laksa juga. Sohai

up to you lor can see from the replies a few agree with me
