928 Yishun Laksa – The Laksa Here Makes Yishun Great Again
November 06, 2018
Yishun is indeed one of the most dangerous places in Singapore. Dangerous for the waistline, that is. Yishun has hidden so many good food for such a long time! It will be ludicrous to stay away from Yishun just because of the reports and news. An example of killer stalls that could potentially be lethal to your dress size is 928 Yishun Laksa, which serves one of the best laksa in the north.
Each bowl of laksa comes with your choice of noodles and is served with a medley of ingredients such as crabsticks, boiled egg, beancurd puffs, bean sprouts and fish cake. You can also opt for additional cockles($1). At 928 Yishun Laksa, don’t forget to add their homemade sambal into the bowl for an extra spicy kick. Shiok!
I believe what makes the laksa($2.80/$3.30) so outstanding at 928 Yishun Laksa is the gravy which is thick and creamy. The coconut milk added into the laksa is different from what you usually find in other hawker stalls. As a matter of fact, the owner has shared that they make sure that their gravy is fresh every day. She does not add water into the soup, so there wouldn’t be a case of diluted or watery broth. Apart from a stunning gravy, 928 Yishun Laksa also churns out very fragrant chilli.
Customers know that the family-owned stall only uses the best ingredients. The daily long queues are a testament to the quality and popularity of the laksa. The owner starts her day at 4am just so that she can look through the ingredients that have just arrived. She picks out the fresh ones and chucks any that’s not up to standard.
928 Laksa actually started out as a rojak stand that sells laksa too. However, the owner noticed that people kept coming back for their laksa, more than the rojak, and thus decided to focus on her laksa. In her younger days, she made sure to listen to her customers’ feedback so that she could perfect her recipe. She has crafted her laksa based on what people like, and that has proven to be a winning recipe.
Currently, 928 Yishun Laksa is helmed by the owner’s husband and her younger sister. Together, the family-operated stall serves only the best to their customers. The queues are definitely not for the faint of heart, so be sure to reach early unless you want to wait more than 20 minutes for your meal. But in any case, the laksa’s completely worth the wait!
