My Own Cafe

Asam Laksa was very good, it suits my taste. The sourness is still tolerable and the broth was rich in flavour. Little amount of spring rolls’s filling but when dipped in broth, as the sauce, it tastes better. The owners was very nice. They got the Michelin Bib Gourmand three years in a row.

My food rating guide: 2.5/5 ‐-------> Average taste 5/5 ‐--------> Scrumptious! (My comfort food! 🤩) The asam laksa was nice. The soup was fruity, light-medium, and refreshing. Not overly sour or heavy. The noodle was very soft and had the melt-in-your-mouth texture. The fried spring roll was ok. Dipped it in the asam laksa to enhance its flavour. The meal was a 4.2/5

A random walk in to this cafe turned out amazing. Small menu with such flavour bombs. Hands down one of the best nyonya laksa I ever had. Bowl portion is just nice, not too little, not too much. Waiting time was a bit long but you have to understand that it's a family run business so they only have limited manpower. The waiting time was worth it cause the food was delicious. If you are lucky, you might even find a cat at the cashier haha.

Best asam laksa I've ever had. I came by the recommendation of a local shopkeeper at a nearby shop. Menu is short so you know it's good. Service was great and the restaurant is a quaint shop house very near Armenian Street. Highly recommend!

I would rate this one of the Best Assam laksa n Nyonya laksa in Penang. Nyonya laksa is even much better than the one in Jonker street Melaka. Fried spring roll are very good too. Very specialised cafe only the 3 items available. Father son team is very friendly. Each bowl is made individually fresh on the spot after ordering so that's some time They deserves the Michelin Guide. Bravo. Must try if U are in Penang.

Very friendly family and amazing food! Assam Laksa is a must try and spring rolls go very well with it. Totally recommend this place, I will definitely go back!

Mainly serving local delicacies, specializing in laksa. Suggest to pair it with their homemade popiah, goes extremely well. Please take not that the "lemak" one is not available Monday to Thursday. Overall everything is good, friendly staff, very accommodating. As a side note, for non cat lover, you may feel uncomfortable with cat wondering around where some people may deemed unhygienic.

10/10!! We love that they only have three items on the menu - we tried all three and were blown away (managed to grab the last bowl of Lemak laksa of the day!) The flavours were amazing and the portion sizes just perfect. The family who run it are so friendly and welcoming - thanks for an incredible experience!

One of the best meals we had in our two weeks in Southeast Asia. You think it's one cafe, but it actually seems like a series of vendors under one roof. We paid three or four different people, one for each item. We had the assam laksa and char kway teow. Being our first exposure to each, we weren't sure what to expect. But the laksa was deliciously spicy and sour with big thick noodles, fresh cucumber, red onions and even some mint leaves. I had the char kway teow because it had one spicy pepper icon (compared to another item that had two). It was a really nice stir-fry with shrimp and bean sprouts. It was pretty greasy, but oh so good, and just the right amount of spice for me. There was a fried banana vendor ("Bro-nanas") there who was so enthusiastic about her dish, we had to try it. Deep-fried banana covered in chocolate sauce isn't something I would normally think of ordering, but we were glad we did. The banana melts until it's barely solid inside the fried shell. This was totally delicious. For drinks, we had carrot-apple-orange juice which was very healthy, but felt a little overpriced compared to the how little the food cost. It was a total of 33 ringgit for everything, or about $8.00 US.
