Assam Laksa For Lunch At Kopitiam MAN CT

On this particular Friday morning, there was no sunrise and this is the only snapshot I took of the morning sky after a light drizzle.

Grey sky at 7:50 am.
Rain droplets on my white Periwinkles.

We had a lunch date with our friend. Our foodie search took us to a new place in Taman Ipoh Jaya, Ipoh. We were informed that this assam laksa stall only opens around 11:30 am and the stall will be ready for business about 12 pm.
Everything looks good, so we ordered a bit of most of the items available to try. Of course, we each had one bowl of assam laksa because we were hungry.
Some of the fried items such as these crispy fried stuffed bean curd sheets.
Yong tau foo or stuffed tofu and stuffed green chilies.
Do not be deceived by the thin watery assam laksa broth. There are pieces of fish chunks inside the soup. This assam laksa is delicious. We will be back soon.
Kopitiam MAN CT has 2 entrances or shop fronts. You will find the assam laksa stall at the entrance facing the road Selasar Rokam 32.
I took a snapshot of this wall mural or street art as we were on our way home.


For we know that when this tent we live in now is taken down
- when we die and leave these bodies -
we will have wonderful new bodies in heaven,
homes that will be ours forevermore,
made for us by God himself and not by human hands.
(2 Corinthians 5:1, The Living Bible-TLB)

  2. Food looks so good. Must note this down for one day when I get to go to Ipoh. Is the Assam laksa spicy?

    1. If you have the time, this is another good place to taste the laksa and fried liew. Dai Shee Geok has more fried liew varieties.
