Finally Tasted The Laksa In Farlim

Heavy brunch in my previous post meant no lunch for us... but it did not happen that way....

It was around 2pm when we passed by this Tin City in Farlim...  then something suddenly caught my eyes....Since I was not the driver, my eyes could "wander" left and right ... Quickly I told my driver to make a U-turn ...  I was so happy that I finally managed to locate this stall.... 
 The Tin City which is developing into a city in no time..
And the laksa stall is just opposite the Tin City...
Open only on Sundays!

This is IT!
The laksa stall is right at the end of this row of shophouses...  
Wasting no time, we got down and made orders....
The one and only road side stall in Farlim...
Andy did the choosing...
 Our table and seats at the five foot way... 
Just look at the fish servings.... 
I would like another bowl of this again!!
Ordered some crispy varieties...
I like this type of noodles...
We ordered three bowls of Laksa only.... 
But we ordered two rounds of the crispy fish varieties!
How was the laksa taste?
My answer is... 
I will drop by here again and again....

  2. 2nd bowl of laksa looks like "lo shu fun". We only use yellow noodles or bihun for laksa over here. I have tried this type of laksa before and I don't like it. Maybe I am not used to the fishy smell? They used kebong fish if I remember correctly. Anyway, I still prefer our own Sarawak laksa.

    1. Yes, over here it is either kembong or sardin fish... some use tin sardin to make it thicker... the Sarawak laksa to me is assam curry... different taste altogether... :)

  3. this place looks so.. errr, quiet if not deserted?? i mean the old shops are closed and the construction site looks like abandoned?? but who cares, got nice food there, no reason for the Ipoh Food Mayor not go to over!! the laksa looks good, and i also like those "liu"~~

  6. I don't know this area in Ipoh, lol! How much for a bowl with so much fish?

    1. I didn't ask individually but with drinks and these bowls, it is around RM19...

      Delete
    2. So if the drinks are RM1 each x 4 that means 5 bowls cost RM15 so on average RM3 a bowl for the laksa and the fried varieties. Good price!

    3. 3 bowls of laksa and maybe around 10 liews or so... I was busy taking pictures so didn't ask my son how many... yes, I think very reasonable price.. no rental ... no fan also.. hahaha..

    1. In Ipoh, no need to use assam word... laksa is good enough.. when mention laksa, it means sourish already..... but over here got assam curry ... meaning.. curry with lime... Next time take you there if u come on sunday, OK!

      Delete
    2. if laksa refers to assam laksa...how would u call curry laksa in Ipoh?

Three Hours City Tour At Ensenada, Mexico

A THREE HOURS CITY TOUR when we embarked in Mexico on the second morning.   My sister booked the three hours city tour in Ensenada, Mexico, a van came to pick us up from the port.  Ensenada is the border of Mexico and it reminds me of Hatyai, a border town too between Malaysia and Thailand.  We were taken to a shopping area where we must haggle for the goods.  LOL.. Yes, something common in my own country... Anyway, we did not buy anything for ourselves... just a wooden handmade truck for my grandson which cost $8usd.   Nothing much to shout about on this three hours excursion, I was so sleepy on the way back to the ship that I dozed off and only awaken when we were driven through the town.  All in all, I just wanted to step onto Mexican soil and I would give this a miss if I were to go on this Mexico cruise again.  LOL... At the open area shopping walking towards the Blowhole... This is La Bufadora Blowhole, an amazing natural marine geyser that is capable of shooting water over 60 fe

Exploring The Sea Cruise Royal Caribbean

CRUISING ALONG.... Once we deposited our bags in our cabins, we had our buffet meal at the Hammerjack restaurant and exactly at 4pm, we heard a loud Horn signal...  ITS TIME TO SAIL ALONG THE PACIFIC OCEAN! And while the ship started to sail, we humans started to walk and explore.... to familarize ourselves inside the ship....  Elevators on each side of the ship....  Making my mark....  On another side....  We walked along to check out our food outlets... This Promenade Cafe  had became our regular joint .... We like to sit there enjoying our hot drinks and desserts... Free flow of food day and night.... Passing through the bars to the casino... The casino will open only when the ship is in international waters...  At one of the jackpot machines... I wonder if they are real?? But they are only $1 bundles... Then we went up to the highest floor.... The swimming deck.... Taken against the sun.... Nice sunset in the evening.... The Happy Trio!

First Day In The Royal Caribbean Cruise To Mexico

ROW ROW ROW YOUR BOAT.... gently down the sea....  Royal Caribbean, it is my second time following this giant vessel, the first time was from Singapore to Phuket, that was a very nice cruise.  So when my son mentioned that he found a good deal online, this time to Mexico, I agreed without hesitation.  Let's Go! A three nights stay with food and lodging only cost around $250 per person with at least one senior in per room.  Meals were either buffet style or fine dining, we can choose and cafes were opened 24 hours for us to rest and relax.  How not to resist... LOL...  And so here we are... just one week after landing in US, I was on the sea....  Looks small from afar...  It was a giant vessel with at least 14 floors.... On the way to embarking after Custom Clearance...  Our room for the next three nights....  Small and cosy.... And adjoining to my son's family room through a door...  The one with balcony cost a bit more...  A short briefing about safety after we checked in....
