Depot Road Claypot Laksa is famous among Singaporeans, especially those who live in Singapore’s west. I was first introduced to it by an ex-colleague and friend, Tammy.
It can take up to 20 minutes to get your bowl of these spicy noodles, but I find it’s worth the wait!! The spicy coconut curry soup also has prawns, chicken, cockles, tofu and fish cake. Eating this, with a big spoon of sambal stirred in for extra heat, is often like an adventure, where you’re not sure what morsel you will dig out next with your chopsticks!
If you are a laksa lover, then you must get yourself down to their temporary location (they are usually in Alexandra Food Centre, but this is currently under one of Singapore’s famous upgrades).
Block 119, Bukit Merah Lane 1 (coffee shop on the corner opposite the motorcycle shops), Alexandra Village

Really?? I haven’t been back since they moved into the re-renovated location in the Alexandra Food Centre… they seem to be closed more often than open. Disappointing if that’s the case – they were legendary… and used to be sooo lemak!
