D Laksa KSL City Mall — Restaurant in Johor

From a humble stall at the basement of KSL City (level where Tesco is), the stall has now evolved into a MASSIVE eatery brightly lit and very streamlined operation.

The menu is simple, you can have a bowl of Assam Laksa, either eat in or takeaway, and a drink or two to go with your meal. Ingredients breakdown: thick rice noodles, bit of veggie soaked in spicy sour mackarel soup base, with bits of fish. The pungent sour spicy smell is distinctive as one will inevitably get a whiff of this fragrant soup almost EVERYWHERE on that basement level of KSL City Mall. For around RM5, it is quite worth a try. Reviewed as...

The Asam Laksa is a burst of flavors - spicy, uniquely sour with a delightful prawn twist. The addition of sardines elevates it!

Must-try: Asam Fish Ball & Asam Lobster Ball soaked in Asam Laksa gravy!

Don't overlook their delightful Steamboat Paste - ideal for savoring at home with your favorite steamboat dishes.

However, it's worth noting that there used to be a generous serving of sardines and onions, but that has been reduced recently. Additionally, they now precook the noodles, which sometimes causes them to stick together. Still, the broth remains tasty!

Available for both dine-in...

Price slightly increased probably due to SST, but the major problem was, the taste no longer as tasty as before and so was their fruit rojak. Standing outside the outlet, you can still smell the usual assam laksa strong fragrance, but honestly when the white noodles get into your mouth, the strong flavour no longer exist like last time. The kick was near to zero. The 6 of us went to the front to take an observation and we saw they gave lesser prawn paste Petis and gravy was more watery now. Sad to say goodbye to the glorious assam laksa with thick gravy, strong and bold flavour...
