  seems that the katong stall does franchising...they sell the laksa soup to the other stalls...
  
  Ask Ah ma, she should know better.

  It's everywhere. Even here in Bukit Batok also have one. Nothing special. But I've yet to try the real one. Hmm...

  Authentic Laksa?
  
  What is “authentic” Laksa in Singapore?
  
  Some of the laksa offer curried gravy (real curry minus the chicken), with YELLOW noodles, some with fine strands of “mee boon”, and some even offer kway teow in the curried gravy. On top of this, they put in large chunks of “tau pok” and “fish balls”.
  
  Some offer the Penang version with the clear sour gravy in the same different option of yellow noodles or fine mee hoon.
  
  The “original” laksa in Singapore is the nonya-baba style – with the gravy based on coconut milk in spices, slow boiled with grounded “hei bee” (dried shrimps), poured over “chor bee hoon”, and topped with thin slice of fish meat cakes, cockles, thick wad of chilli paste, and some green sprinkling of lemon grass (?).
  
  To each his own – “one person’s dream laksa, is another person’s poison”.
