From the esplanade waterfront walk, we drove to this place that is called Laksalicious.
We were told that this place serves both Assam Laksa and Laksa Lemak.
Banner at the entrance.
Our friends did the ordering because they have been here and they know what is good.
I ordered this appetizing drink called Laksa Tea @ RM9.90.
I can't remember what it is called but it has small pieces of lemon grass, bunga kantang or edible torch ginger, pineapple, cucumber, mint leaves, etc., in the drink.
1 bowl of Mixed Laksa (assam + lemak laksa) and 1 bowl of Nyonya Laksa (lemak). Laksa per bowl costs RM10.90. Each bowl of laksa has a piece of deep fried flour fritter.
Two bowls of iced cendol for sharing (RM7.90 per bowl).
Delicious cendol with thick coconut milk (santan) and palm sugar.
Side order #1 - Crispy fried yam paste rolls
Yam paste rolls @ RM4.90 per plate.
Crispy prawn fritters, 3 pieces @ RM10.90.
Total cost for this laksa lunch = RM65.30.
We bought a few packs of frozen laksa the next day to take home to Ipoh.
Laksalicious at 123, Hutton Lane, Georgetown, Penang.
These vintage floor tiles have been preserved and we can still see them on the floor in front of some old shops and eateries in Penang.
Old shops renovated and converted into hotels e.g. Penaga Hotel.
Vintage designs and stained glass windows.
We were surprised to see this in Penang. A bread or "roti" man using a tricycle to sell bread and other snacks. Those days, we have bread men riding on this tricycle, going to the residential areas and we will know by the "ting-ting" sound when he hits on the bell attached to his tricycle.
Giving preferred treatment to rich people is a clear case
of selling one's soul for a piece of bread.
(Proverbs 28:21, The Living Bible-TLB)
What a fabulous place you visited, Nancy. The food looks delicious and that tea is a dream!! I love tose old flors, you still see them some places here, such a pity to cover them up or destroy them. Hugs, Valerie

DeleteTiles and a tricycle remind young people of their past and make sure that the traditions of a town are not forgotten.
ReplyDeleteI do hope these will be preserved for the future generations.
