Laksa has always been a dish with heated discussion on its origins. There are many different Laksa out there, such as Laksa Penang, Laksa Sarawak, Laksa Singapore and so on. Each state has their own definition of Laksa.

The Laksa here is W.W Laksa House is different from the Laksa that you find elsewhere. The bowl of Laksa is loaded with different ingredients: beancurd skin, bean sprouts, dried tofu, fish balls, fish cakes, and noodles of your choice. This bowl of goodness is then soaked in a rich Laksa soup base that is more towards a curry base as compared to the tangy Laksa soup base you find in Penang Laksa.
