At long last, after endless requests, I got to make this tempting version at home, with the taste ~exactly like Encik Tan's.

Lion City's Laksa - shiok!

This was literally the key dish that threw the gates wide open ⛩️ and tingled my palate, excited for the smorgasbord this Lion City had to offer.   Still a few weeks in Singapore, it was at a wedding reception of my husband's teammate. I recall vividly its taste. And my reaction, Oh my, oh la la. πŸŽ‡πŸŽ†πŸŽ‡. Psychedelic. And so, I fell in love with the rich makan culture of Singapura. 🩷 .LAKSA. 🧑 Creamy coconut sauce. Yummy yellow orange tinge, that my eyes could feast on. Spicy chilis. Noodles satin soft. And the bitey shrimp just right. Smells heavenly. Whether here for just a few hours, or expecting a long stay, you simply cannot leave this city state without having a taste of this glorious LAKSA. "Shiok" is how the locals say when the taste of something is so on point! #foodAdventure > SG
