Alone and bored on a Saturday afternoon, I ventured in search of the famed Laksa Janggus. Reputedly one of the best laksa in Penang, Laksa Janggus is located in Kampung Perlis, Balik Pulau. And of course, like most famous eateries in Malaysia, it has been featured on Jalan-jalan Cari Makan. Now, whether or not being featured on Jalan-jalan Cari Makan justifies it’s reputation as THE BEST laksa in Penang, I don’t know. It all depends on one’s own personal taste, I guess. My verdict? It’s good. It’s definitely tasty. And best of all, it’s very cheap! RM 2 for a big bowl of laksa.
Just google “Laksa Janggus” and you will find that many have blogged about the place. Hence, driving directions to the place are easy to find.
The long line of cars, belonging to customers, parked along the main road of Kampung Perlis, is proof of the popularity of Laksa Janggus
People queing up for the laksa. Food and drinks are on self-service here.
Voila! Does it look appetizing? (Sorry about the shadows and highlights)
