"We ordered our food before looking at the reviews, which turned out to be accurate. We ordered sambal stingray, and it wasn't fresh. The flesh was scant and extremely tough. I wouldn't recommend patronizing this stall."
"Love, love, LOVE their laksa! 😭😭😭 I never fail to crave it! It always hits the spot when I have a laksa craving, with their delicious broth and flavor-filled noodles. Plus, the serving size for the $2.80 option is really generous, and the shop auntie was nice, friendly, and patient both times I bought from them. Be careful with the chili, though, if you aren’t good with spice, as it packs a punch! 😂 10/10, would recommend to everyone I know!"
We got the signature laksa.
Food: It's not the Katong style, but it's still quite good. The noodles are okay, but the standout is the hum (cockles), which are big and juicy.
Service: Do note that you are expected to pay extra for any requests, including chili. Otherwise, it's typical hawker aunty service. Pay using the FairPrice app for a discount.
Atmosphere: Typical hawker atmosphere. Non-air-conditioned, but the ceiling fan is strong.
Price: $3.50 at the time of review - good value for money.
Overall, I would recommend it if you love hum in laksa!
"This was a waste of money.
The first time, the lady asked if I wanted chili. I asked if it could be separated, and she said it couldn't, so I just said, "No, thank you."
The second time, she asked me the same question, and I said no.
I ended up getting a laksa with no prawns and not many ingredients besides noodles and soup.
The lady was also very rude. 🙄"
"High-quality laksa with a nice broth. The owner is very dedicated to her craft. I wish there was an option to add chicken for a more filling meal.
Don't miss it when you're dining at OTH!"
The $2.80 laksa tasted normal. When I asked for more chili, she said I couldn't have any without paying extra. So I said never mind. It's the first time I've encountered a laksa stall that charges extra for chili. And they still call themselves "Social Bites."
When placing my order, the lady didn't mention the long wait. After waiting for 30 minutes, I asked if I could cancel the order and get my money back. The lady started yelling at me. If they want to combine orders and cook everything at once, that's fine. But please don't wait for another identical order and then start cooking both dishes together. Anyway, I can find better Thai food with better service and a shorter waiting time elsewhere. No next time for me.
Ordered the Chicken Basil with Rice for $5.90. The egg was very nicely done, with a runny yolk. The chicken basil was spicy enough, but not too spicy. There was enough sauce, so the dish wasn't too dry. I only waited about 5 minutes around 12 pm on a weekday. It was an additional $0.30 for takeaway. Overall, 10/10!
Heavily disappointed and felt scammed. I ordered chicken pad thai, but received only TWO PIECES OF CHICKEN. No exaggeration. Four if you count the two pathetic pieces of chicken skin. Please just call it pad thai; don't label it as chicken pad thai if there's no chicken. The noodles weren't pad thai noodles either. It tasted like Chinese stir-fry.
First time trying food from this stall. So far, it's quite okay, even though it's slightly oily. But at least it tasted spicy (don't worry, the spiciness is bearable), compared to other stalls that sell basil chicken with a sweet taste. The lady boss is polite and cute, and she even spoke to me in Thai when passing the food – maybe "thank you" in Thai with a very bright smile, hahaha. And the omelette is the half-cooked kind, which is my favorite; I didn't even have to ask for it! Will try other dishes next time :)
