O I'm glad you found this Laksa. It is 100% representing the best of Laksa as 'Penang Laksa' goes on this Planet ! The ones you had in Langkawi are also very good Laksa, but they are the Malay Laksa. They are very representative of the traditional Malay Laksa. And I love both types so very much.

Hi Mark, I just came back from Georgetown (13th October): I don't think the 2 sisters are making the noodles anymore as they sat at one corner while a younger lady makes them and a younger guy is also helping out by cleaning tables (maybe they're the grandchildren?) I think I also sat where you sat hahaha. You should also visit Penang Hill if you do visit Penang again :)

Mark: Great site! Great videos! All the foods are so yummy, you have my dream job! But, there is a very troubling issue i have, regarding the unsanitary condition of many of the eateries you presented(primarily in Asian countries such as India, Malaysia, Thailand, Indonesia, Vietnam; etc. ), and how the foods were handled and prepared. Are you ever concerned about unsanitary issues in a restaurant setting? Eating delicious foods from all these places, are you ever concerned about health issues ? Have you ever gotten sick from eating in any of the places you ate from? Do you do anything in particular, to safeguard yourself from eating at "unsanitary" places?

That rice vermicelli is known as 'bihun' in malaysia. In fact, we call the sheredded pink flower on the laksa as ginger torch which is known as 'bunga kantan' in malay that can be used for making curries. Mint is one of the herbs added into the laksa. Fritters served on rojak is called 'youtiao' in mandarin or 'char kueh' in hokkien (a kind of southern chinese dialect) and i really love it since i was a kid.

Omg...you went to my hometown. The brown sauce you had in your laksa is the shrimp sauce called "he ko". To make the dish not so sweet you can ask them to put less of the shrimp sauce. The soup base is a mackerel fish soup base. They put some lime inside too to make it slightly sour
