Assam Laksa 

Assam Laksa is one of the famous and popular dishes that you must try when you are in Penang. I was at Jalan Penang looking for this coffeeshop called Joo Hooi Cafe. The coffeeshop is located along Jalan Penang. There is a stall selling Assam Laksa at this Joo Hooi Cafe. I ordered a bowl of Assam Laksa that cost RM3.00. The gravy of the Assam Laksa is thick and filled with the rich flavour of the sardine fish together with ingredients like pineapples, onions, mint leaves, minced sardine fish, assam paste, prawn paste and sliced chilli. The Assam Laksa is very appetising and a little sweet due to the pineapples and prawn paste. It does not have any fishy taste or smell which is something I'm quite particular about. The portion of the Assam Laksa is small so you can try other food even after finishing a bowl of Assam Laksa. This is a dish you must try if you are in Penang.
