Then where is the greatest one? If you ask 1000 Penang locals there would be 90% of them tell you that it’s thePASAR AIR ITAM LAKSA near Kek Lok Si Temple.

NATIONAL CUISINE – ASAM LAKSA PROFILE

Asam Laksa was a kind of noodle meal made from Fish Soup. The soup was made from  boneless mackerel, lemongrass, chilli, onion, cucumber and tamarind, and the noodle was made from “Seto” (similar to rice moss). It tastes so good that CNN awarded it as the 7th of 500 the most delicious food in the world in 2011.

Malaysia Penang – Air Itam Laksa Feature

 

This Laksa looks normal but the amazing sour and spicy taste of the soup as well as the smoothly noodle, sliced pineapple and some lettuce and red pepper, one would add cucumber and curry powder called Alpinia officinarum, lemon leaf and the shrimp sauce to specialize the laksa, at last to add a crown by putting mint leaf on it. The soup with little sour and spicy taste and the exclusive shrimp sauce make it layering! I finished it easily with one and another swallow!
