During my business travel to Penang last months, I manage to try out some of the nice food there...
One of the best would be the Penang Asam Laksa near Kek Lok Si Temple. Basically it was a wet market so you can expect sitting at smelling and wet area while enjoying this sweet, sour and spicy delicacy...
The noodle is normal but the gravy is extremely nice. The fish meat was well blended with the spicy gravy and with some lime smell and mint. Although the place is dirty and the way the uncle cook the asam laksa does not seem to be any cleaner, but the moment you sip the gravy you will be very satisfied...
So next time you went to Kek Lok Si temple, look out for the asam laksa…You won’t regret.
