Review: Penang Farlim Shell Station Laksa

I went back to Farlim, Penang for the famous laksa there once again today. It was introduce by one of the forumer, kenkan73 from BolehVpn forum.



The laksa here are also quite different from other famous laksa in Penang. Most of the famous laksa in penang, the soup will be full of minced fish. However, for this, the soup does not have as much minced fish as the other, but instead, they give you the whole fish. It's one whole "ikan kembung" for each bowl of laksa!!! I never see any other shop/stall offering this type of laksa before!

The laksa is really really good, it's one of the best Penang laksa that I eaten before! I really love the soup, and the "laksa noodle" too. Some place the "laksa noodle" is hard and crunchy, which I don't like, but this one is the type of "laksa noodle" that I love.

My rating "Penang Farlim Shell Station Laksa": 7.5/10



Look at the huge fish!!



Besides the laksa, they also sell "fried popiah". The "fried popiah" is already very nice itself, but if you dip it inside the laksa soup and eat it, the taste is even more awesome!! A must try besides the laksa here.

My rating "Penang Farlim Shell Station Fried Popiah": 7.5/10



Notice the big steel tray? Inside it is full of "ikan kembung" for the laksa!!!



Overall, I love the laksa and "fried popiah" here. Everytime I think of eating laksa at Penang, I will come to here and eat, until someone recommend me other place which are better and I will go try. :)

Total damage:
"Laksa" - RM3 for each bowl
"Fried Popiah" - RM1 for each
