Besides Asam Laksa, Ah Cheng Laksa also serves other things like nasi lemak and curry mee. They have very attractive meal sets for lunch and afternoon tea.
I was curious, so I decided to try the meal sets over a few visits.
First thing I tried was the nasi lemak.
The rice is not as lemak as expected and the chicken rendang is passable. And so is the sambal. The rice is quite a big portion and I only managed half.
It was not terrible, it was not great.
The last thing I tried was the fruit rojak. Nope. Did not like it. So based on my experience, the laksa is the best bet.
So Ah Cheng failed to impress eh? Name reminds me of Ah Cheng Bay Lo ti (Unchained Melody). LOL!!!
ReplyDeleteLOL! That's really funny :D
DeleteGeez. Doesn't sound like this place and food impress you much.
ReplyDeleteOnly the asam laksa is good.
DeleteI agree that only their laksa is the best and nothing else.... Soon their assam laksa will disappear into thin air if they don't improve further as others are getting pretty closer to the authentic Penang's Assam Laksa by using the correct rice noodles.
ReplyDeleteI agree that the asam laksa is not quite like Penang one.
DeleteSo the attractive meal set is deceiving...
ReplyDeleteTaste not so nice...
DeleteYa, usually I will eat Assam Laksa junior bowl when I eat at this place although I have tried both their curry laksa and nasi lemak by sharing with my friends. I like that they have junior bowls option on their menu. Don't think I have tried their rojak but I have tried their keropok lekor too.
ReplyDeleteI agree that junior bowl is good if you want a lighter meal.
DeleteAh Cheng nih Hans baru makan hari tu
ReplyDeletehahaha
hans makan asam laksa dia tapi rasa sedap juga
yang lain tak pernah rasa lagi
hah..hah... lain kali Hans cuba benda lain pulak. Pada PH only the asam laksa is good.
DeleteI have tried their curry noodles some 3 years ago, it doesn't impress at all. After then, I no longer want to try Ah Cheng, coz to me it is just another franchise kopitiam outlet.
ReplyDeleteNo wonder you never went back.
DeleteThe curry laksa looks very spicy to me.... sure sweat if I eat that! LOL...
ReplyDeleteNot really spicy.
DeleteNope, don't like the assam laksa either! :P
ReplyDeletehah..hah... I thought so!
DeleteOK, if need to makan there, I'll try their laksa only ;)
ReplyDeleteYes, that is advisable.
DeleteI guess it's the laksa then!
ReplyDeleteThat's right!
Deleteeh ... that nasi lemak portion looks quite finish-able lah! :)
ReplyDeleteThe rice portion is quite big. I guess my appetite is not as good as before.
DeleteWhen assam laksa is mentioned, my mind only thinks of Penang laksa!
ReplyDeleteThat's the best!
DeleteThat's the best!
DeleteThe curry nooles looked good from your photo but too bad it was not as good as expected~
ReplyDeleteYup, quite a let down.
