Pasar Air Itam Laksa (Closed)

Anthony Bourdain made me do it!When people mention local, it doesn't get much more local than this. Wrapped around the corner of Air Itam market, with a few tables clinging to the walls, a drinks stall and the laksa stall out in the open with the penetrating sun blinded by a few hanging plastic tarps. Sink your teeth into this ultra-fishy concoction only if you are a brave person. It's not for the faint-hearted, put it that way. I struggled to eat it at first, but it did grow on me. WARNING!

Asam Laksa in Air Itam plays the first role in Penang island . I won't miss it when everytime I visit Penang .One of the best things living in Malaysia is the foods readily available to all, at anytime or everywhere . I love Malaysian food too much .The strong aroma of the fish chunk , the sourness of the soup and the quality of the prawn paste definitely attracted us all the time .The uncle will scoop the boiling hot soup and bath the noodle few times to make the noodle cooked and make sure the gravy stays on the noodle to make sure the thick rice noodle get covered evenly with the delicious thick broth .The thick broth is made from mackerel and served with thick shrimp paste with aromatic mint leaves , onions and chilies . The broth is deliciously sour and not too spicy . I liked the spongy texture of the thick rice noodles which was melt in my mouth , and the thick mackerel broth was well complemented .Fresh sugar cane Ayer Itam Assam LaksaJalan Pasar , Paya Terubong ,11500 Pulau Pinang ,Malaysia .Open today 11:30 am – 10:00 pmhttp://eddyrushfatboy.blogspot.my/2015/10/asam-laksa-air-itam.html continue reading

Ayer Itam is a pasar that sells a variety of local penang food.Penang Asam LaksaThis dish is penang asam laksa. The asam laksa is too spicy for me. You can see the amount of "Chilli padi" they sprinkled on the top. Those chillies cannot be looked down seriously.
