328 Katong Laksa
I don’t think this award winning laksa joint needs much of an introduction but for those that don’t know, this is the place that took on Gordon Ramsey in a famous Laksa Challenge and won.
By now you know how much I love a good laksa and I’ve been here a bunch of times over the years. They do it well but now that they’ve got themselves a Michelin Star it’s super busy!
Still it’s a great story of doing big things from humble beginnings. The good thing is that they’re super focused on quality and consistency as the now famous owner Lucy Lim points out. She believes that doing every step right is vital to making good laksa, down to the most basic procedures such as boiling the rice vermicelli. She has strict rules on the portions of ingredients used, especially when it comes to the gravy and dried shrimps. Balance is the key to a great laksa and at 328 they’ve got it down perfectly.
Enjoy.
