Katong Laksa
By peace | June 19, 2008
Never get to eat some good food here, but get to see this windmill, have this Holland Village Windmill as ’souvenir’, still not as bad…
Went to Holland Village, and was looking for the usual Hong Kong Noodle shop where I used to eat with my friends. But everything changed, and I do not know what is the name of the shop already. We walked down the lane and saw this shop below, selling Katong Laksa, which sound nice and looked nice….
This is the shop at Holland Village, selling Katong Laksa and Nasi Lemak. Written there, in chinese, 山, (San = mountain).
Thought the food would be good, but…
The Bee Hoon, was hard (not as soft as the best one I had eaten). The Laksa gravy/soup was not fragrant, don’t smell nice, don’t taste good also. More salty than nice. Rating of one star for overall. Self-service some more. Give one star already too nice for them. The only thing which is ‘nice’ and really ‘original’ is the HUM/cockle. But this ‘imitation’ Katong Laksa is better than another ‘Imitation’ Katong Laksa I tried at Woodlands 888 Plaza. That one is EVEN WORST than this.
Saw their otar placed there. Asked whether they were hot a not. The woman answered,”Yes”. I touched, it was slightly warm only — the type of warm which probably inside also not that warm. But fine, let’s try….
The otar was cold. The inside, not nice also. I asked Richard,”How’s your Nasi Lemak?” Looked terrible also. He never mentioned NICE. Neither does it looked good. To know the food, I tried the egg. The egg was VERY HARD. Egg also fried until like that — don’t need to try other thing anymore.
This is worst than Woodlands Nasi Lemak.
So disappointed with what we ate. Wasted my money too. The waitress, Chinese, not local (CN), made me so angry. Food not nice, plus ‘lousy’ service waitress, that really wasted all my money, totally not worth eating at that shop.
