    Sometime we choose places we eat not by recommendations but it was a kind of blur blurred come because last week we saw that shop was fully occupied. So we were at Fara Idlan Mini Café and couldn’t find why it was popular.

    The laksa is very tasty, the gravy is just nice, not too thick, not sour, no fishy smell. It's good to breathe his gravy. There are a lot of portions 2) Noodles with special meat sauce, there are egg shakes & half-boiled eggs, and plenty…

    Malay friends took me to this place from George Town for the Laksa Ika Sekoq. It was quite a drive but these friends’ enthousiasm made me curious. The food was totally worth it.

    Regular Laksa = RM6 (It tastes good, a little spicy. The gravy is not runny & very thick. The portion is satisfying) 2) Special soup noodles = RM9 (I like the texture of the soup which is thick & a little spicy.

    Taste: 10/10 Service: 10/10. The spicy laksa sauce tastes like fresh fish filling & the thick noodles are delicious. They give you 1 egg😍 The coconut palm cendol is also delicious. It doesn't taste strange at all.

    HONEST REVIEW: Food - Kedai Warung but cafe price .... Looks good BUT everything is overpriced compared to portions (except Laksa), too spicy 🔥 even we ask for less .. taste NOT good as others which are much much better.
