Sungei Road Laksa 结霜桥叻沙 (Jalan Besar)


Laksa $2
Sungei Road Laksa 结霜桥叻沙 (Jalan Besar) is a famous Laksa stall located at a coffee shop in Jalan Besar. It is around 10 minutes walk away from Lavendar MRT station and is located opposite Jalan Besar Food Centre.
Unlike most laksa stalls, Sungei Road Laksa occupies a large unit of the coffee shop. It was manned by 4 persons. 1 person took the orders and collect the money, 1 person cooks the Laksa while the remaining 2 persons prepare the ingredients.
Look at how systematic they are. Everything is arranged neatly.
Interestingly, the Laksa gravy is cooked using charcoal stove. Each bowl of Laksa cost $2. The version with more ngredients cost $3. Most people would order a few bowls of the $2 version. There would typically be a long queue at this stall. When I visited recently, there was 3 persons in front.
Laksa $2
The Laksa $2 is served with thick rice noodles, beansprouts, slices fish cakes and cockles. The cost of Laksa may seems cheap, but well, to me it was not value for money. The bowl is small and the ingredients are far from generous. 

Worst of all, the laksa gravy was thin and lacking in flavour, especially the shrimp flavour. Frankly, I do not know why this is so popular. 928 Yishun Laksa tastes way nicer and at $2.80 comes with more than double the amount of ingredients.

A instavideo of the food at  Deungchon Shabu Kalguksu 등촌 샤부 칼국수 . Deungchon Shabu Kalguksu 등촌 샤부 칼국수 is a restaurant chain that specialises in Shabu Shabu and Kalguksu. We visited  Deungchon Shabu Kalguksu  at Anam for around five times since we first got to know of the restaurant eight years ago when we enrolled in Korea University's Student Exchange Programme (SEP). #yesiamoldandiknowit I had previously heard from friends that the restaurant had closed down. But thanks to a instagram user by the name of " Nicolettelovesyou ", I manage to find out that it was still open and pin point its exact location! Thanks Nicolettelovesyou!  The restaurant is less than 3 minutes walk from exit 2 of Anam 안암 (subway line 6) station. This is also the same station and same route where one can get to Korea University's hostel and CJ international house! Deungchon Shabu Kalguksu is located at level 2 of this building which is opposite Coffee Bean. You can either take the lift or climb

Biya 비야 (South Korea, Seoul)

A instavideo of the food we had at  Biya 비야 . Budae jjigae 부대찌개 Biya 비야 is a korean restaurant that specialises in Army Stew (Budae jjigae) 부대찌개. Budae jjigae when translated, literally means "Army Stew". It was named this way as this dish originated during the Korean War. Back then, the Americans who assisted in the war brought their own food such as spam (canned meat), baked beans, sausages and hot dogs which was not introduced in Korea before. As the Koreans were facing a food shortage, they cooked a spicy stew which consisted of kimchi and gochujang (red chili paste) and mixed the American's surplus food into the stew. This was how the Army Stew / Budae jjigae came about. Today, this dish is popular among the locals and tourist.  This restaurant is located at Anam. It is 5 minutes walk away from exit 2 of Anam 안암 (subway line 6) station, along the same street as Deungchon Shabu Kalguksu 등촌 샤부 칼국수 and Coffee Bean. Students studying at Korea University would likely ha
