Sarawak Laksa

The mighty Laksa Sarawak packs a hefty punch, featuring rice vermicelli in a rich and spicy broth topped with generous portions of shredded chicken, bean sprouts, strips of egg omelette and fresh prawns; sometimes you can opt to have yellow egg noodles instead of the regular rice vermicelli. The secret to a good bowl of laksa is in the stock, and the oomph comes from a combination of (reputedly over twenty) different root gingers and spices, making this a defining and unique Kuching dish. It is a perennial favourite with locals as well as visitors. Two of the more popular places in Kuching to try out the delicious Laksa Sarawak would most probably have to be Foody Goody and Madam Tang’s.
