Order: Laksa pulas: hand-pressed wheat-flour noodles cooked over firewood in sour fish gravy

Running since 1990 and still cooking on a wood fire, this kampung stall is the benchmark for Laksa Kuala Kangsar. The thick, hand-pressed wheat noodles have a chew you will not find in other Malaysian laksa.
