Best Laksa in Melaka

Written by Updated ago

A fruit of Malay and Chinese descent, laksa is a noodle dish by the Peranakans and is also a heritage Malaysian food. This dish has many variations as recipes were spread differently while some others have created their own. Either way, each and every Malaysian laksa is highly appreciated and cherished by both locals and tourists (unless you can't take the spiciness that comes with it). So be sure to check out these top favourites in the heritage state of Malacca!

    486 Baba LowAlco free 9fb1f2c65edc2c1eaf4e8b24402d108dd33cc2bc71f0fb0022a54c3c390a66c8

    Away from the hustling city, 486 Baba Low is a humble restaurant-stall along the streets in Jalan Siantan Sek 2 (behind Jalan Tengkera). The place may be difficult to locate for non-locals but we reckon it will be worth your trip. Many have raved and rumbled about how authentic the Nyonya food is here. Humble and wholesome, the laksa is said to be fragrant and spicy. Also, the sambal is made fresh daily and cooked to perfection to accompany your Nyonya dishes.
    Tips

    There's a branch in Bangsar, Kuala Lumpur too.

    Nasi lemak, laksa, cendol, popiah, and pie tee.

    The rich aroma of coconut milk wafting through the air signifies that a Nyonya restaurant is in the proximity. Here at Nancy’s Kitchen, you are presented with a simmering bowl of curry coated noodles, filled with a piquant flavour. Generous toppings like fish balls, dried tofu, grated cucumbers, and fried onions add to the perfection of their Nyonya Laksa - a recreation of authentic Peranakan flavours from the proprietor's grandmother's recipe. 

    Tips

    Keep an eye out for a small banner.

    Things to expect

    A variety of Nyonya dishes, do expect to queue up to an hour on busy days.

    At Yung Lai Siang, you can expect friendly service despite huge crowds that may overwhelm the sellers (or so they say). The notable difference between the nyonya laksa here is Yung Lai Siang's unique take on that prawn cracker topping! Garnished with generous portions of your essential laksa toppings, Yung Lai Siang adds their own ingredient of prawn crackers to add that crunch into your dish. And we must say that we absolutely love it just as much as many others do!

    Jonker 88 Pork free d90bfb235d64e73ff14d8ad65b89aaab71a3af43962907cb9cd494af0a63fa21

    Jonker 88 is best known for their array of refreshing desserts. However, what good are cooling desserts without some sweat-inducing laksa? The curry laksa here is aptly named Baba Laksa and has a unique sweet flavour from the use of coconut milk, typical of Southern-styled laksa dishes. Served with julienned cucumber, sliced onions, dried tofu, prawns and a spoonful of tuna flakes, this interesting concoction is vaguely reminiscent of Asam Laksa but without the sourness from tamarind.

    Tips

    Check out some interesting archaeological artifacts on the walls.

    Things to expect

    Tourists, crowds, people.

    Violet Station is probably your next favourite place to shop when it comes to searching for hijabs, shawls and fashion apparels. While you’re deciding which colour that best matches your skin tone, indulge into its “Laksa Penang” here. Laden with slices of a hard-boiled egg, onion and cucumber, this tamarind-tang, bowl of noodle is attributed to its rich flavours and savoury taste. If that is not enough to stimulate your appetite, zest up your meal by squeezing the lime halves before you start digging in.

    Remember the phrase “Blue is the new Black”? White is probably the new green when it comes to denoting a vegetarian restaurant such as Green House Vegetarian Restaurant. You will be welcomed with a white-themed facade, and a decent vegetarian menu which consists of both a la carte dishes and those of communal dining concept. Other than that eye-catching dating plan of strolling along the river view of Melaka, should you decide to dine, do savour the Nyonya Laksa here. Given a generous serving of ingredients such as tofu puffs and bean curd sheets, a robust broth with a creamy texture and a portion that is just about right, going meat-free has never been this yummy and satisfying!
